간호사-간호사 협력과 간호사-의사 협력이 간호업무성과에 미치는 영향: 환자안전관리활동의 매개효과

Purpose: This study investigated the mediating effects of patient safety management activities on the relationship between nurse-nurse collaboration, nurse-physician collaboration, and nursing performance of clinical nurses. Methods: Online survey was performed from February 18 to February 28, 2023 using structured questionnaires. The participants were 212 clinical nurses working in tertiary general hospitals in South Korea. The participants completed self-reporting questionnaires, that measured nurse-nurse collaboration, nurse-physician collaboration, nursing performance, and patient safety management activities. Data were analyzed using SPSS 29.0 program, for multiple regression and a simple mediation model, applying the PROCESS macro with a 95% bias-corrected bootstrap confidence interval. Results: Nurses' patient safety management activities had a mediating effect on the relationship between nurse-nurse collaboration and nursing performance (B=0.24, Boot 95% CI=0.16∼0.34). In addition, patient safety management activities showed a mediating effect on the relationship between nurse-physician collaboration and nursing performance (B=0.10, Boot 95% CI=0.07∼0.15). Conclusion: The levels of nurse-nurse collaboration, nurse-physician collaboration, and patient safety management activities must be considered when developing strategies to improve nurses’ performance in nursing practice settings.
