To evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, practices, and training of respiratory nurses regarding inhalation therapy.
Conducted a cross-sectional online survey among 387 respiratory nurses from 32 hospitals in China.
Used a validated 61-item questionnaire to assess knowledge, attitudes, practices, and training status in inhalation therapy.
Analyzed correlation between years of experience, workshops, training, and performance metrics.
Mean knowledge score was 33.78 ± 2.76, with only 50.13% achieving 'good' theoretical knowledge.
Practice was more strongly correlated with attitudes (Rho = 0.57, P < 0.001) than knowledge.
Years of experience and practical workshops significantly correlated with better knowledge and practice (P < 0.05).
