Introduction: Bone marrow transplantation may be the only hope for those
diagnosed with leukemia or other blood diseases. According to data from the
Josep Carreras Foundation, the probability of these patients to have a compatible
sibling is only 25%, and the probability of finding a relative who is one is 5%.
When they do not have a related donor, the goal is to find a compatible unrelated
voluntary donor.
The existence of myths and beliefs in relation to the bone marrow donation
process can develop into a limitation towards obtaining a high number of donors
that will be essential to save many lives. The participation of nursing professionals
is essential to give visibility and success in donation campaigns, and
consequently, an increase in awareness among students of the Degree in
Nursing could lead to a better attitude towards bone marrow donations.
Objective: To identify the knowledge and attitudes of the Nursing Degree
students of the University of Girona regarding bone marrow donation.
Methodology: Descriptive, quantitative and cross-sectional study. The study
population will be the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th year students of the Nursing Degree
at the University of Girona, made up of a total of 545 people. The instrument used
is an ad hoc questionnaire with 3 sections: sociodemographic data, knowledge
test, and attitude test. The data will be processed with the SPPS computer
program, where the quantitative data will be analysed using frequency and
percentage tables, and the usual centrality (mean and median) and variability
tools (standard deviation and total range). For the crossing of categorical
variables, the Chi square independence test and the Student T will be used
