Abstract

Objectives: To describe knowledge about standard precaution and some associated factors among final year students of Hanoi Medical University in 2020. Subjects and methods: We conducted a study among 444 the final year students of Hanoi Medical University from March 2021 to August 2021. Results: The results show that the proportion of students with knowledge of standard precautions is 64,2%. There is a relationship between training majors and received prior standard precaution material with standard precautions knowledge status. The other bachelor was under 0.22 times less likely (aOR = 0.22; 95%CI: 0.11 - 0.44) to achieve a higher standard precaution compared to nursing students. Students who received documents on standard precaution in the past were over 2.33 times more likely (aOR = 2.33; 95% CI: 1.51 - 3,58) to achieve a higher standard precaution than those who did not receive documents about standard precaution. Conclusions: Medical universities should incorporate standard prevention programs for all disciplines in their clinical training with a handout approach, self-reading for students.
