ABSTRACT
The increased aging of populations and rises in immigration have prompted the design of new methodologies and instruments for fostering the invisible care of geriatric patients among health science students in accordance with the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs. A total of 656 psychology, nursing and dentistry students participated in this study, which had a pretest-posttest design and was implemented over the course of three academic years. The intervention groups received training using an active learning methodology based on a case study involving a geriatric patient; specifically, a Maghrebi woman. The control groups were not exposed to the case study. The CCI-U questionnaire was designed ad hoc to evaluate the acquisition of invisible competences for caring for geriatric patients in accordance with their age, sex, emotional situation and ethnic origin. The questionnaire had a reliability of α = 0.63 to 0.72 and its factor solution was found to have a good fit. Students in the intervention groups scored higher than those in the control groups, with the difference being statistically significant for ethnic origin in all three undergraduate courses and all three academic years. The proper application of this active learning methodology fosters the invisible care of geriatric patients among students in accordance with the 2030 Agenda.

OBJETIVO: explorar la satisfacción de las enfermeras de Osakidetza con las aplicaciones informáticas móviles para el cuidado enfermero, así como su valoración sobre la formación recibida para su utilización, la facilidad de su uso, las características de la información gestionada y el impacto sobre el cuidado del paciente. MÉTODO: estudio descriptivo transversal. Población objeto de estudio: enfermeras de Osakidetza que trabajaban con aplicaciones informáticas móviles. VARIABLES: sociodemográficas y laborales, de usabilidad, formación y soporte recibidos, impacto, satisfacción con las aplicaciones móviles incluidas. Fueron recogidas mediante cuestionario diseñado adhoc. Se realizó un análisis estadístico descriptivo y un análisis bivariantes, mediante el test Chi cuadrado. RESULTADOS: se recibieron 518 cuestionarios (33,5%). El 37,8% refirió satisfacción a nivel general con las aplicaciones utilizadas, el 27,2% mayor agilidad al efectuar el trabajo con tableta y el 36,1% una mejor realización del trabajo. La aplicación con mayor satisfacción fue la que facilita el registro de constantes (61,8%). Un 74,8% refirió impacto positivo sobre la seguridad del paciente. Se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas según la función desempeñada (mayor satisfacción en las enfermeras gestoras; p= 0,023), según nivel de utilización en la vida diaria (mayor satisfacción en utilización media y alta; p= 0,036), y en función del turno de trabajo (mayor satisfacción en turno fijo; p= 0,021). CONCLUSIONES: el nivel de satisfacción con las aplicaciones móviles para el cuidado es discreto. Para conocer el impacto de estas herramientas y la satisfacción general con ellas, se recomienda ser valoradas cuando el despliegue realizado en las organizaciones esté consolidado
OBJECTIVE: to explore the satisfaction among Osakidetza nurses with the mobile applications for nursing care, as well as their evaluation of the training received for their use, ease of use, characteristics of the information managed, and impact on patient care. METHOD: a descriptive cross-sectional study. Population object of the study: Osakidetza nurses working with mobile applications. VARIABLES: sociodemographical and occupational, usability, training and support received, impact, satisfaction with the mobile applications included; these were collected through a questionnaire designed ad hoc. Descriptive statistical analysis was conducted, as well as bivariate analysis, through Chi Square Test. RESULTS: in total, 518 questionnaires (33.5%) were received; 37.8% reported overall satisfaction with the applications used, 27.2% reported that working with the tablet was faster, and 36.1% stated that their work was better conducted. The application with the highest satisfaction level was the one that provides vital sign records (61.8%); 74.8% of participants reported a positive impact on patient safety. Statistically significant differences were found depending on the role played (higher satisfaction among nurse managers; p= 0.023), according to the level of use in daily life (higher satisfaction in medium and high use; p= 0.036), and based on the working shift (higher satisfaction in regular shifts: p= 0.021). CONCLUSIONS: there is a moderate level of satisfaction with mobile applications for patient care. In order to understand the impact of these tools and the overall satisfaction with them, it is recommended to assess them once the display conducted in agencies has been firmly established
