Key result
Prioritization, attitudes, age, and experience influence ambulance nurses' adherence to acute chest pain guidelines.
Self-reported adherence to acute chest pain guidelines among ambulance nurses is positively influenced by their prioritization of the guidelines, positive attitudes, and older age.
May guide targeted education on prioritization and attitudes for younger ambulance nurses; leaves open effects on actual adherence and outcomes.
The study indicates that self-reported adherence to acute chest pain guidelines among ambulance nurses is influenced by how highly they prioritise these guidelines and by their attitudes towards them, as well as their age and professional experience. Enhancing educational programmes and digital resources, particularly for younger and less experienced nurses, may improve adherence and patient outcomes in prehospital settings.
