Abstract (English): Introduction and Background: Care is one of the most basic and well-known activities in the nursing system. Nursing focuses on "human health care". Cowin and Warelow believe that a high perception of the concept of care, the way of expressing it, and practising it has a significant impact on the quality of services provided by nurses and, more importantly, on the nursing perception. This study aimed to evaluate nurses' perceptions of caring behaviors and related factors in cardiac intensive care units of educational-medical centres of Gilan University of Medical Sciences. Methods: The present study is a cross-sectional and analytical study. The statistical population of the present study included all nurses in cardiac intensive care units of educational-medical centres. Based on the census sampling method, out of the total number of 160 nurses, 152 were included in this study. Data collection tools included 2 sections. 1. Demographic section which included personal, occupational, and social-economic information, 2. The standard Modified CARE-Q. Results: The results of the present study showed that nurses' perception score of nursing caring behaviors is about 81.8%, indicating a high perception of the participants. Also, in terms of the relationship between the personal factors and level of perception, gender and organizational status (head nurse compared to nurse p = 0.24) showed a significant relationship with the level of perception and regarding the occupational factors; hospital type showed a significant relationship with the level of perception (P <0.001). Also, the total score of nurses' perception showed a significant relationship with the level of perception, and socio-economic factors showed no significant relationship with the level of perception. Nurses participating in this research pay more attention to the technical aspects of caring than to the emotional and social aspects. The nurses of the intensive care units were more concerned about the physical problems of the hospitalized patients. The availability and timely implementation of treatment instructions was the most important caring behaviour for them and this approach cannot meet all the needs of patients. It is necessary for Conclusion: Considering that the nurses participating in this study pay more attention to the technical aspects of caring for the emotional and social aspects, this approach can not meet all the needs of clients and it is necessary for nursing educators and managers in training and planning. Paying special attention to various factors affecting caring behaviours, by emphasizing ethical issues and creating morale, increases the sense of responsibility, strengthens professional ethics and self-efficacy, on the other hand, creating and strengthening counselling services, minimize their problems.

Abstract (Spanish): Introducción y antecedentes: El cuidado es una de las actividades más básicas y conocidas en el sistema de enfermería. La enfermería se centra en el "cuidado de la salud humana". Cowin y Warelow creen que una alta percepción del concepto de cuidado, la forma de expresarlo y practicarlo tiene un impacto significativo en la calidad de los servicios prestados por las enfermeras y, lo que es más importante, en la percepción de enfermería. El estudio tuvo por objetivo evaluar las percepciones de las enfermeras sobre los comportamientos de cuidado y los factores relacionados en las unidades de cuidados intensivos cardíacos de los centros médicos educativos de la Universidad de Ciencias Médicas de Gilan. Métodos: El presente estudio es un estudio transversal y analítico. La población estadística del presente estudio incluyó a todos los enfermeros de las unidades de cuidados intensivos cardíacos de los centros médico-educativos. Con base en el método de muestreo censal, del total de 160 enfermeros, 152 fueron incluidos en este estudio. Las herramientas de recopilación de datos incluyeron 2 secciones: 1. Apartado demográfico que incluía información personal, ocupacional y socioeconómica, 2. El estándar CARE-Q Modificado. Resultados: Los resultados del presente estudio mostraron que el puntaje de percepción de los enfermeros sobre los comportamientos de cuidado de enfermería es de aproximadamente 81,8%, lo que indica una alta percepción de los participantes. Asimismo, en cuanto a la relación entre los factores personales y el nivel de percepción, el género y el estatus organizacional (enfermero jefe frente a enfermero, p = 0,24) mostraron una relación significativa con el nivel de percepción, y en cuanto a los factores ocupacionales, el tipo de hospital mostró una relación significativa con el nivel de percepción (P<0.001). Además, la puntuación total de la percepción de las enfermeras mostró una relación significativa con el nivel de percepción, y los factores socioeconómicos no mostraron una relación significativa con el nivel de percepción. Los resultados revelaron que los enfermeros participantes de esta investigación prestan más atención a los aspectos técnicos del cuidado que a los aspectos emocionales y sociales. Las enfermeras de las unidades de cuidados intensivos estaban más preocupadas por los problemas físicos de los pacientes hospitalizados. La disponibilidad y la implementación oportuna de las instrucciones de tratamiento fue el comportamiento de cuidado más importante para ellos y este enfoque no puede satisfacer todas las necesidades de los pacientes. Es necesario que los educadores y gerentes de enfermería presten atención a este tema en la capacitación y la planificación. Conclusión: Considerando que los enfermeros que participan en este estudio prestan más atención a los aspectos técnicos del cuidado de los aspectos emocionales y sociales, este enfoque no puede satisfacer todas las necesidades de los clientes y es necesario para los educadores y administradores de enfermería en la formación y planificación. Prestar especial atención a los diversos factores que inciden en las conductas de cuidado, al enfatizar cuestiones éticas y crear moral, aumenta el sentido de responsabilidad, fortalece la ética profesional y la autoeficacia, por otro lado, al crear y fortalecer los servicios de consejería, se minimizan sus problemas. Para que los pacientes puedan beneficiarse de mejores y más adecuados servicios de calidad. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
