The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that nurse perceptions of technology they use in practice would affect their perception that they were able to provide high quality patient care. A survey assessing the variables was administered to 337 pediatric nurses from two academic freestanding pediatric hospitals in the US. Two separate equations were constructed, one to test whether technology perceptions affected individual quality of care and the other to test whether technology perceptions affected quality of care provided by the nursing unit. Nurse confidence in their ability to use hospital technology and their beliefs that the technologies were easy to use, useful, and fit their tasks are important predictors of nurse beliefs that they are able to provide quality care to their patients.
