Abstract

This article aims to present the results obtained from a study conducted to determine the level of knowledge of nurses in the management of advanced airway care in a secondary-level hospital. Advanced airway management involves a set of procedures that ensure proper oxygenation and ventilation in critically ill patients; inadequate handling can significantly contribute to the prevalence of morbidity and mortality. The Rapid Intubation Sequence is a sequential and systematic process that facilitates ventilation control in critically ill patients. Methodology: The research belongs to the quantitative paradigm, with a non-experimental, descriptive, and cross-sectional design. The study population was defined by inclusion and exclusion criteria and consisted of 30 nurses working in the emergency department of Dr. Gustavo Nelson Collado Ríos Hospital. Anonymity and relevant ethical considerations were guaranteed. A pre-test with a 20-item questionnaire was applied to assess the level of knowledge in advanced airway management. The data obtained were processed using Excel 2016, and SPSS version 25 was used to create explanatory tables organized according to the study variables. Expected Results: During the teaching intervention, the management of advanced airway care and the Rapid Intubation Sequence by the nurses was optimized, allowing for safe procedures and the necessary care for managing critically ill patients.
