The mean KAP scores were 13.44\u2009\u00b1\u20091.62 (possible range: 0\u201317), 45.28\u2009\u00b1\u20093.87 (possible range: 10\u201350) and 43.85\u2009\u00b1\u20095.98 (possible range: 10\u201350), which indicated moderate knowledge, positive attitude and proactive practice, respectively. The Pearson's correlation analysis showed positive correlations between knowledge and attitude (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.253,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.001), knowledge and practice (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.279,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.001), as well as attitude and practice (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.441,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.001). Partial correlation analysis adjusted for age, gender, department, working experience and experience in treating patients with catheter\u2010associated urinary tract infections also showed positive correlations among KAP. A structural equation modelling showed that both knowledge (\n \u03b2<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.501,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.047) and attitude (\n \u03b2<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.691,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.001) had direct effect on practice.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n This study found moderate knowledge, positive attitude and proactive practice among the participants. Both knowledge and attitude might affect their practice.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Impact<\/jats:title>\n We wanted to know the knowledge, attitude and behaviour of nurses in Taicang City towards unnecessary catheterisation. Moderate knowledge, positive attitude and proactive practice were found among the participants.
