Abstract: Objectives To investigate the knowledge understanding about gout for clinical nurses and improve the general nursing of gout . Methods In total, 178 clinical nurses participated in the questionnaire survey. The questionnaire has 10 items and includes the pathogenesis of gout, clinical manifestation, treatments, lifestyle and comorbidities. Results 178 clinical nurses participated in the questionnaire survey and 177 valid questionnaires were collected. All nurses correctly answered 6.96±1.67 items on average, the median was 7. The nurses were considered to acquire the gout-related knowledge if they correctly answered 7 or more items. The nurses had good understanding about the clinical manifestations of gout, but didn’t have sufficient knowledge about the treatments of gout. Logistic regression analysis revealed that further education program acted as a factor affecting the degree of acquiring the gout-related knowledge by nurses. Conclusions The gout-related knowledge of clinical nurses may be strengthened by the further education program.
