Zusammenfassung:Results suggest knowledge of: the need to confirm tube position (S2), flushing (S9) and occlusion (S10) has been consistently correct more than 80% of the time, but no overall improvement; responsibility for insertion (S1) and ability to aspirate fine bore tubes (S4) was variable, correct 25-100% of the time, no overall improvement; appropriate removal of guide wire (S3) and use of auscultation (S6) was generally poor but showed overall improvement of 20-40%; appropriate use of x-ray (S5), syringes (S7) and water (S8) consistently poor and overall reduction of 20%.
