Abstract
Studying and controlling (HIA) is now a global priority in order to minimize the infections, reduce mortality rate, shorten the length of stay in hospitals, and dramatically decrease the medical expenses. Nurses play the most important role in care and are one of the most effective elements in reducing HAI. This case study aimed to determine the knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses concerning the HAI in Iran. This is a systematic review of knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses in Iran. The studies conducted from 1997 to 2016 were reviewed and analyzed by the Keywords namely knowledge, attitude, practice, nurses, HAI and systematic review of Pub Med, Science Direct, Scopus, and Google Scholar, Iranmedex, SID, and Magiran databases. The results indicated inadequate knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses concerning HAI in Iran compared to world standards. Knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses were not adequate concerning HAI. Considering the important role of nurses, it is essential to train nurses concerning HAI in order to enhance their knowledge, attitude, and practice. As a result, they would display correct HAI behaviors. © 2017, Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development. All rights reserved.
