Abstract
El presente trabajo de investigación es de tipo cuantitativo, descriptivo, correlacional y de corte transversal, y tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación entre Conocimiento y actitud sobre el equipo de protección personal de las enfermeras del Hospital III EsSalud de Chimbote. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 30 enfermeros que laboran en el servicio del centro quirúrgico. Se utilizó la prueba estadística de Chi cuadrado para relacionar las variables en estudio, garantizando su confiabilidad y validez. Los datos fueron procesados y analizados con el programa IBM SPSS Statistics 29, presentando las variables cualitativas en tablas simples y cruzadas con frecuencias absolutas y porcentuales. Los resultados indicaron que, 63.3% presentaron un nivel de conocimiento alto, 36.7% nivel medio, mientras 56.7% de los encuestados mostraron una actitud favorable hacia el uso del EPP en centro quirúrgico y 43.3% una actitud medianamente favorable. Además, se encontró una correlación significativa entre el conocimiento y actitud sobre el equipo de protección personal en enfermeros. Este hallazgo, se corrobora con la prueba de chi cuadrado, donde, p = 0.000, X2= 22,71, lo que indica una relación significativa entre las variables.
