Impact of lack of knowledge on risk perception and protective practices of home nurses handling antineoplastic drugs

Introduction: Health care workers handling antineoplastic drugs (ADs) are at risk of carcinogenic, mutagenic and reproductive toxic risks (CMR). The aim of this study was to assess the impact of the lack of knowledge (K) on risk perception (P) and on protective practices (PP) related to the handling...

description Introduction: Health care workers handling antineoplastic drugs (ADs) are at risk of carcinogenic, mutagenic and reproductive toxic risks (CMR). The aim of this study was to assess the impact of the lack of knowledge (K) on risk perception (P) and on protective practices (PP) related to the handling of home-based chemotherapy (HC) by home nurses. Methods: This study was conducted in Normandy among home nurses. A questionnaire was developed to explore the K, P and PP related to handling ADs by home nurses working with four different providers from two hospitals. Results: Among the 28 home nurses included, 25.93% had received initial training on the specific treatment of ADs, 48.15% scored below average on risk management K, 52.00% scored below average on personal PP. Conclusion: This study reveals the importance of adapted and regular training on the handling of ADs. It will help develop a climate of safety and reinforce adherence to wearing personal protective equipment to protect health care workers from contamination.
