Hypersensitivity to metal is a type IV T\u2010cell\u2010mediated reaction that can occur after cardiac, orthopaedic, dental, gynaecological and neurosurgical procedures where a device with metal components is implanted into the body. Patients with hypersensitivity to metal are likely to experience delayed healing, implant failure and stent restenosis. Identifying patients with a history of metal hypersensitivity reaction could mitigate the risk of poor outcomes following device implant. Yet in clinical practice, healthcare workers do not routinely ask about the history of metal hypersensitivity when documenting allergies. The existing literature does not report why this is not included in allergy assessment.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>Following the STROBE checklist, a cross\u2010sectional, descriptive study was conducted.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Frontline healthcare workers were recruited using professional contacts and social online media to complete an online questionnaire.

Ninety per cent of the participants did not routinely ask about metal hypersensitivity when evaluating allergy history. Of the respondents, 86% were unaware of the association between metal hypersensitivity and poor patient outcomes. After presented with the evidence, 81% indicated they were likely or very likely to incorporate the evidence into their clinical practice. Common themes about barriers to implementing were \u2018Standards of Practice\u2019, \u2018Knowledge\u2019 and \u2018Futility of Screening\u2019.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The findings suggest lack of awareness as the main reason for not including metal in routine allergy assessment.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jocn.15571","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,25]],"date-time":"2020-11-25T17:51:55Z","timestamp":1606326715000},"page":"541-549","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Metal hypersensitivity screening among frontline healthcare workers\u2014A descriptive study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"30","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0290-8261","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dzifa","family":"Dordunoo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing University of Victoria Victoria British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6238-2193","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michelle","family":"Hass","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Learning and Innovation Scripps Health San Diego California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Catherine","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Studies University of the Fraser Valley Abbotsford British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Martha L.","family":"Aviles\u2010Granados","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing University of Victoria Victoria British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Miriam","family":"Weinzierl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing University of Victoria Victoria British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3951-4573","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Judith A.","family":"Anaman\u2010Torgbor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing and Midwifery University of Health and Allied Sciences Ho Ghana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ajijoon","family":"Shaik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nursing Department, School of Health and Human Services Camosun College Victoria British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6094-567X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anastasia","family":"Mallidou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing University of Victoria Victoria British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Farzad","family":"Adib","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Allergy and Immunology Veterans Affairs Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System Los Angeles California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,16]]},"reference":[{"volume-title":"The Xience V Everolimus eluting coronary stent system \u2013 Instructions for use","year":"2008","author":"Abbott","key":"e_1_2_13_2_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jmig.2014.03.019"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcot.2017.10.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arth.2008.05.002"},{"volume-title":"Promus premier monorail over\u2010the\u2010wire everolimus eluding platinum chromium coronary stent system","year":"2011","author":"Boston Scientific","key":"e_1_2_13_6_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1398-9995.2000.00107.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsa.2017.06.009"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1748-5908-8-51"},{"volume-title":"Internet, mail, and mixed\u2010mode surveys \u2013 The tailored design method","year":"2009","author":"Dillman D.
