| description | Background Nonpharmacological pain control strategies combine numerous strategies that contain nondrug measures for pain remedies for sufferers. Objective To assess the practice of nonpharmacological pain control strategies among nurses working in public hospitals of West Arsi zone, Ethiopia, 2022. Methods An institutional-based cross-sectional study design was employed from April 15 to May 30, 2022. The total sample size was 422 and a simple random sampling technique was used. Data were entered using Epi-information 4.6 version and analyzed using SPSS version 25. Multicollinearity was checked by considering the variance inflation factor and tolerance. The goodness of fit test was done using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit check. Binary logistic regression analysis was done and variables with a p-value of < 0.25 within the bivariable analysis were taken into the multivariable analysis. Statistical significance was declared at a p-value of < 0.05 with an adjusted odds ratio (AOR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Result The practice of nonpharmacological pain control strategies was 53.8% (95% CI: 48.9–58.7). Age of 30–39 years old (AOR: 2.28, 95% CI: 1.34–3.86), educational status bachelor's degree (AOR: 2.25, 95% CI: 1.47–4.45), marital status married (AOR: 0.46, 95% CI: 0.28–0.73), and having training (AOR: 1.98, 95% CI: 1.23–3.17) were found to be significantly associated with practice of nonpharmacological pain control strategies. Conclusion About five in 10 nurses working in West Arsi zone public hospitals had good practice of nonpharmacological pain control strategies. Age, educational status, marital status, and training were found to be significantly associated with practice. Therefore, improving the educational status of nurses through various opportunities such as continued professional development and regular updating, and training nurses about methods may increase the nurses’ practice toward nonpharmacological pain control strategies. |
