RESUMEN
Introducción: cuando un individuo es hospitalizado en UCI para control y monitorización permanente de su salud, su cuidado está orientado específicamente a la asistencia plena de médicos y personal de enfermería. La complejidad de estos cuidados genera una crisis situacional y emocional en la familia que causa ansiedad, estrés, miedo y duda. La forma en la que el enfermero intervenga con el familiar en situaciones críticas es lo que va a determinar la percepción de los mismos hacia el cuidado de enfermería, en tanto la comunicación y el apoyo emocional forma parte de la competencia profesional y contribuye al cuidado holístico del paciente y familia. Objetivo: Determinar la percepción de los familiares de pacientes, respecto a la comunicación que le brinda el profesional de enfermería en la unidad de cuidados críticos. Materiales y método: Se realizó un estudio de tipo cuantitativo, descriptivo y de corte transversal. La muestra estuvo constituida por 40 familiares adultos responsables del paciente hospitalizado en la unidad de terapia intensiva, durante los meses Junio - septiembre del 2023. El instrumento de recolección de información fue un cuestionario de "Percepción de los familiares de los Pacientes Críticos, respecto a la intervención de Enfermería durante su Crisis Situacional"; el mismo fue utilizado y validado por la autora Franco Canales Rosa aplicado en el Hospital Nacional Edgardo Rebagliati, Abril de 2003. Resultados:Los resultados muestran que la percepción global de los familiares, es favorable, respecto a la comunicación verbal, comunicación no verbal y el apoyo emocional[AU]
Introduction: health is the condition in which every living being enjoys absolute well-being both physically and mentally and socially, when it is affected either by a pathology or by general accidents; Given the physical condition of the individual, he or she is often hospitalized in the ICU for permanent control and monitoring. Your care is specifically oriented towards the full assistance of Doctors and Nurses. The complexity of this care generates a situational and emotional crisis in the immediate family that causes anxiety, stress, fear and doubt. The way in which the nurse supports the family member in critical or distressing situations is what will determine the perception of the family members towards the nurses, since communication and emotional support are part of the professional competence and contribute to the holistic care of the patient. patient and family. It is a care that is reflected in the feeling that the nurses have that when they do it, the families are very grateful and that, without a doubt, it is their job. Objective: Determine the perception of the patient's relatives regarding the communication provided by the nursing professional in the critical care unit of a private institution. Materials and Methods: A quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out. The sample was made up of 40 adult relatives responsible for the patient hospitalized in the Adult intensive care unit, during the months of June - September 2023. The information collection instrument was a questionnaire on "Perception of relatives of Critical Patients, regarding to Nursing intervention during their Situational Crisis"; It was used and validated by the author Franco Canales Rosa applied at the Edgardo Rebagliati National Hospital, April 2003. Results:The results show that the overall perception of family members is favorable, regarding verbal communication, non-verbal communication and emotional support[AU]
Introdução: saúde é a condição em que todo ser vivo goza de absoluto bem-estar tanto físico quanto mental e social, quando é acometido por alguma patologia ou por acidentes gerais; Dada a condição física do indivíduo, muitas vezes ele é internado em UTI para controle e monitoramento permanente. O seu atendimento é especificamente orientado para a assistência integral de Médicos e Enfermeiros. A complexidade desse cuidado gera uma crise situacional e emocional na família imediata que causa ansiedade, estresse, medo e dúvidas. A forma como o enfermeiro apoia o familiar em situações críticas ou angustiantes é o que determinará a percepção dos familiares em relação aos enfermeiros, uma vez que a comunicação e o apoio emocional fazem parte da competência profissional e contribuem para o cuidado holístico do paciente. paciente e família. É um cuidado que se reflete no sentimento que os enfermeiros têm de que quando o fazem as famílias ficam muito gratas e que, sem dúvida, é o seu trabalho.

RESUMEN
Background: There is a need to understand the clinical decision-making and work practices within ostomy nursing care to support expanding nursing training. Objective: To develop and evaluate a new metric-based simulation for assessing ostomy nursing care using a human factors approach. Sample: This pilot study involved eleven stakeholders in the needs assessment, six nurse participants performing simulated ostomy care, and three independent observers assessing procedure reliability. Method: We conducted a needs assessment of ostomy nursing care and training, developed an enhanced metric-based simulation for ostomy appliance change procedures, and statistically evaluated its reliability for measuring the simulated tasks. Results: The enhanced metric-based simulation captured different tasks within four task categories: product selection; stoma and peristomal skin care; baseplate sizing and adhesion; and infection control strategies. The video review procedure was reliable for assessing continuous (average ICC≥0.96) and categorical (average κ>0.96) variables. Conclusion: The new metric-based simulation was suitable for characterizing a broad range of clinical decision-making and work practices in ostomy nursing care.
RESUMEN
This study aimed to compare the number of assigned and appropriate patients per nurse in integrated nursing care service wards and analyze factors associated with the gap. For this cross-sectional secondary analysis, data were collected from surveys of 2312 nurses and institutional data from their affiliated 106 hospitals in Korea. We used the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and t-test to compare the number of patients assigned to nurses with the number they considered appropriate. We used ratio analysis for measuring the gap between these numbers, and robust regression to evaluate the factors affecting this gap. The results found an average gap of 1.45, indicating that the reported number of assigned patients per nurse was 1.45 times higher than the appropriate number. Gender, employment type, wage satisfaction, workload, overtime work, and hospital level of care were identified as factors associated with the gap. Findings suggest that the current nurse staffing standard should be revised to consider nurses' professional judgments of appropriate staffing levels and adopt policies that reduce nurses' workload.

Using cell phones by nurses can affect the quality of care. This study aimed to explore the consequences of using cell phones by nurses in hospitals. A qualitative approach was used. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Nursing staff, patients, and their relatives participated in this study. Categories of "emotionless care," "neglect in care," "impaired professional behavior" and a main theme of "Personal cell phone is a barrier to effective nursing care" extracted. Using cell phone during work could jeopardize patients' safety and ruins the nursing profession image. It is necessary to formulate guidelines on how to use cell phones in hospitals.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are at an increased risk of ocular surface injuries because of various factors such as reduced tear production and impaired protective mechanisms. Despite the significance of ocular care in ICU settings, there is a lack of consensus on effective interventions, leading to inadequate prevention of ocular surface disease (OSD). AIM: This systematic review aimed to assess the effectiveness of nursing eye care in preventing OSD in ICU patients. Secondary objectives included identifying primary risk factors for ocular injuries and examining the most effective preventive methods. STUDY DESIGN: A systematic review following PRISMA guidelines was conducted, encompassing a literature search, article selection, quality assessment and data synthesis. Studies meeting inclusion criteria were observational studies and clinical trials, focusing on adults admitted to ICUs under sedation and receiving mechanical ventilation. RESULTS: Of 3545 initially identified articles, 12 studies met inclusion criteria. These studies involved a total of 1853 participants. Various interventions were assessed, including saline rinsing, lubricating drops, gel lubricants, occlusion with polyethylene dressing, passive blinking and eyelid closure with tape. Moist chamber occlusion every 6 h combined with gel lubrication emerged as the most effective method in preventing OSD. CONCLUSIONS: Gel lubrication along with moist chamber occlusion proved to be the most effective strategy in preventing ocular injuries in ICU patients. Conversely, the routine use of physiological saline was associated with increased severity of corneal lesions. Properly defined protocols and well-trained nursing teams are crucial for reducing ocular injuries in ICU settings. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: The findings underscore the importance of implementing evidence-based eye care protocols in ICUs, emphasizing the use of gel lubrication and ocular surface protection to mitigate the risk of OSD. This highlights the need for comprehensive training programmes for ICU nursing staff to ensure optimal ocular care delivery.
RESUMEN
Empathy plays an important role in nursing so that the patients are provided with quality care and are satisfied with the services provided. Saudi Arabian patient interactions, including initial exploring, tend not to be formulaically initiated as in other countries. In this current study, the researcher aimed to highlight the critical role of nurse introductions in creating a desirable patient experience in the inpatient centers of Ministry Of Health hospitals in Saudi Arabia. This study was a cross-sectional secondary data analysis using the National Health Links/Presses Ganey surveys for every quint between the period 2021 and 2022. The methodology comprised an in-depth analysis of the Patient Experience Management Program (PXMP) survey that was involved as the uniform survey concluded by the Health Links/PressGaney. During the analysis, however, the results were found to have significant differences as 71.3% of the patients had a very good impression of their overall patient experience. This was specifically designed to address specific issues such as personal characteristics. The results of this study contribute to the understanding of what drives the nurses-patient interactions and forge the need for enhancing the way nurses are introduced to their patients to increase the average level of satisfaction of patients in the Ministry Of Health hospitals in Saudi Arabia. This study recommends that Saudi nurses should be trained to establish rapport in their interactions with patients as this promotes patient-centeredness and subsequently patients' experiences and care outcomes.
RESUMEN
Objective: Accurate diagnosis is very important to block the transmission of tuberculosis. The quality of sputum culture affects the diagnostic accuracy. The quality of sputum samples is not optimistic. Therefore, this study investigated whether health care failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA) can improve specimen quality and detection efficiency in sputum specimen management in tuberculosis departments. Methods: This study is a non-randomized controlled trial study. A convenience sampling method was used to select 110 patients who visited the Department of Tuberculosis of the Second Hospital of Nanjing from September to November 2022 and December 2022 to February 2023 as the control group and the experimental group. Control groups followed standard operating procedures for sputum specimen collection. In the experimental group, HFMEA model was used to control the quality on this basis. After 3 months of intervention, the qualified rate and positive detection rate of sputum samples were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 634 sputum specimens were included in the experimental group and 647 in the control group. Compared with the control group, the qualification rate of sputum specimens was higher in the experimental group (84.54% vs 79.13%); the positive detection rates of the X-Pert assay (27.88% vs 16.19%), sputum culture (20.29% vs 12.68%), and sputum smear (22.29% vs 15.81%) were all higher in the experimental group (all P < 0.05). Patients in the experimental group had higher knowledge mastery and nurse sputum sample management scores (P < 0.05). However, patient satisfaction with sputum specimen management in the experimental group was lower than in the control group (7.72 ± 0.74 vs 8.38 ± 0.85, P < 0.001). Conclusion: The application of the HFMEA model in sputum specimen management can effectively improve specimen quality and positive detection rates.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Heart failure is associated with reduced quality of life, hospitalizations, death and high healthcare costs. Despite care improvements, the rehospitalization rate after an acute heart failure episode, especially for acute heart failure, remains high. METHODS: The Education Strategy for patients with acute Heart Failure (EduStra-HF; ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT03035123) study will randomize patients admitted for acute heart failure in six French hospitals to usual care (control) or therapeutic education (intervention). All patients will be evaluated at baseline and will meet with a therapeutic education nurse before discharge. Those in the usual care arm will have standard appointments with their cardiologist and general practitioner. Those in the intervention arm will have an intensive follow-up schedule of phone calls, home visits and text messages from the therapeutic education nurses, plus cardiologist visits. Patients will be stratified by discharge location (home or cardiac rehabilitation centre) before randomization, and will be followed up for 1 year. The primary outcome will be the readmission rates for acute heart failure during 1 year in the two groups. Secondary outcomes will include: quality of life; time from inclusion to first readmission for acute heart failure; non-heart failure cardiovascular rehospitalization rates; length of stay for heart failure; cardiovascular and all-cause death; rates of patients receiving optimal medical therapies; evolution of knowledge about heart failure; and cost-effectiveness. CONCLUSIONS: This study will assess the efficacy and feasibility of a standardized management strategy for the care and follow-up of patients discharged after hospitalization for acute heart failure. The EduStra-HF strategy will combine various nurse care methods to help prevent rehospitalization.
RESUMEN
AIM: To critically evaluate missed care measurement approaches and their application in long-term aged care (LTAC) settings. DESIGN: Systematic review using Tawfik's guideline. DATA SOURCES: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL and ProQuest were searched. Supplemental searching was from reference lists of retrieved records, first authors' ORCID homepages and Google advanced search for grey literature. Search limitations were English language, published between 1 January 2001 and 31 December 2022. REVIEW METHOD: COVIDENCE was utilized for screening, data extraction and quality appraisal. JBI Critical Appraisal Tools and COSMIN Risk of Bias Tool were used for quality appraisal. Data were summarized and synthesized using narrative analysis. RESULTS: Twenty-four publications across 11 regions were included, with two principal methods of missed care measurement: modified standard scales and tailored specific approaches. They were applied inconsistently and generated diverse measurement outcomes. There were challenges even with the most commonly used tool, the BERNCA-NH, including absence of high-quality verification through comparative analysis against an established 'gold standard', reliance on self-administration, incomplete assessment of constructs and inadequate exploration of psychometric properties. CONCLUSION: Globally, there are deficiencies in the effectiveness and comprehensiveness of the instruments measuring missed care in LTAC settings. Further research on theoretical and practical perspectives is required. IMPLICATIONS: Findings highlighted a critical need to establish a standardized, validated approach to measure missed care in LTAC settings. This review calls for collaborative efforts by researchers, clinical staff and policymakers to develop and implement evidence-based practices as a way of safeguarding the well-being of older clients living in LTAC settings. IMPACT: Measurements of missed care in LTAC settings rely on adapting acute care tools. There is a critical gap in measuring missed care in LTAC settings. Developing a new tool could improve care quality and safety in LTAC settings globally. REPORTING METHOD: Adhered to PRISMA guideline. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient or public contribution.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Significant numbers of patients undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery develop chronic symptoms such as chronic pain and chronic cough after surgery, which may lead to a reduced quality of life (QoL). Despite this, there remains a dearth of high-quality prospective studies on this topic. Therefore, our study aims to systematically investigate the incidence and progression of long-term chronic symptoms following minimally invasive lung surgery, as well as changes in patient's psychological status and long-term QoL. METHODS: This is a single-centre, observational, prospective study that included patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer or benign lesions. Prior to surgery, patients' baseline levels of chronic pain, chronic cough and sleep will be documented. Anxiety, depression and QoL assessments will be conducted using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) 30-item QoL Questionnaire (QLQ-C30). Following surgery, pain and cough will be evaluated during the initial 3 days using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale and Visual Analogue Scale score, with assessments performed thrice daily. Additionally, sleep status will be recorded daily during this period. Subsequently, postoperative chronic symptoms and QoL will be assessed at weeks 1, 2, 4, 12, 26 and 52. Chronic cough will be evaluated using the Leicester Cough Questionnaire, chronic pain will be assessed via the Brief Pain Inventory and McGill Pain Questionnaire while the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire and HADS will provide continuous monitoring of QoL, anxiety and depression statuses. Data will also include the timing of chronic symptom onset, predisposing factors, as well as aggravating and relieving factors. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was obtained from the Ethics Committees of Fujian Medical University Union Hospital. The findings will be disseminated in peer-reviewed publications. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT06016881.

INTRODUCTION: Non-native-speaking nursing students as well as faculty, preceptors and mentors face specific issues related to language in undergraduate nursing education. A better understanding of the language experiences, needs, requirements, assessments and support activities will guide linguistically responsive learning and teaching and will direct future curriculum development. This scoping review aims to examine and map the extent of literature related to linguistically responsive learning and teaching for non-native speakers in undergraduate nursing education and to describe the lived experiences, barriers and facilitators, language needs, assessment tools and supportive interventions. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This scoping review will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for scoping reviews and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). In May 2023, a preliminary search was conducted. The comprehensive search will include MEDLINE (PubMed), CINAHL (EBSCO), ERIC (EBSCO) and MLA (EBSCO). OpenGrey (DANS) and reference lists of the included articles will be searched for grey literature and additional articles. Two independent reviewers will screen titles and abstracts, then review the full texts of articles. Data will be extracted using a data extraction form and will be presented in figures, tables and narrative syntheses, in line with the review questions. This review will include articles that describe the experiences of non-native-speaking nursing students, faculty or preceptors in undergraduate nursing education and clinical practice environment. Articles that report on language requirements, needs and assessment tools will also be considered as well as articles reporting on supportive activities and interventions within the study programmes. Articles related to exchange students or programmes will be excluded. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: No ethical approval is required. The findings of the review will be disseminated through peer-review publication as well as oral and poster presentations at scientific conferences.

RATIONALE AND KEY POINTS: Nutrition is a fundamental aspect of nursing care, however older people cared for in hospital, in a care home or in their own home do not always receive adequate support with their nutritional needs, which can leave them at risk of malnutrition. Using a holistic, biopsychosocial framework to support a comprehensive nutritional assessment that includes malnutrition screening can support the nurse to identify the older person's nutritional status and nutrition needs.

RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This study has two objectives: (1) to identify the indicators of the nursing outcome "Knowledge: Wound management (3209)" related to the evaluation of knowledge about the care of surgical wounds; (2) to translate and culturally adapt the nursing outcome "Knowledge: Wound management (3209)" into Brazilian Portuguese and Colombian Spanish. METHODS: This is a methodological study with two steps. Initially, a scoping review was conducted based on the methodology of the Joanna Briggs Institute. Subsequently, the translation and cultural adaptation of the outcome were performed by adapting Beaton's recommendations, which included the label, definition, indicators, and measurement scale. FINDINGS: The review identified 31 indicators to evaluate knowledge about surgical wound care. Of these, 16 are described in the original outcome, and 15 new indicators are proposed to be included in the classification. Following this, the label, definition, indicators, and outcome measurement scale were reviewed, translated, and adapted with appropriate terminology for the cultural contexts of Brazil and Colombia. CONCLUSION: The outcome "Knowledge: Wound management (3209)" for evaluating the knowledge of surgical wounds consists of 31 indicators, all supported by scientific literature. The translated and adapted versions into Brazilian Portuguese and Colombian Spanish were found to be equivalent to the original. It is inferred that the identified indicators and the translated versions of the outcome will provide nursing professionals with an accurate assessment of knowledge about surgical incision wound care in daily practice. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: This study reviews the scientific literature on the outcome "Knowledge: Wound management (3209)," facilitating the comprehensive measurement of specific knowledge about the care of surgical wounds in practice, education, or research. Additionally, it makes available the translated and adapted versions of the outcome in Brazilian Portuguese and Colombian Spanish.

RESUMEN
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Missed nursing care is a global challenge that can have many consequences and it's known as a common threat to the patient safety and quality of nursing care. The nurses' professional commitment plays the final role in the occurrence of this issue. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between nurses' professional commitment and missed nursing care in Iran. MATERIALS & METHODS: This cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 270 nurses working in two hospitals affiliated to Tehran University of Medical Sciences (Sina & Shariati) from September to December 2023. The research community included all nurses working in medical-surgical wards in the designated hospitals. The research samples were included in a targeted and quota method after obtaining organizational permits, ethical approval and informed consent. Data collection was done using three questionnaires including demographic information form, Nursing Professional Commitment Scale, and MISSCARE Questionnaire. The collected data was analyzed in SPSS software, version 25. RESULTS: The results of Pearson's correlation test showed that there is a significant negative relationship between nurses' professional commitment and missed nursing care scores (r=-0.23) (p < 0.001). The mean score of nurses' professional commitment was reported at a moderate to high level (83.72 ± 16.02) and the mean score of missed nursing care was reported at a low level (47.84 ± 16.48). Nurses over 40 years old, morning shift and employed nurses showed higher professional commitment. Also, nurses under 29 years old and male nurses had more missed nursing care other than their participants. No relationship was observed between other demographic variables with nurses' professional commitment and missed nursing care. CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that higher nurses' professional commitment leads to higher quality of care and less missed nursing care. Based on findings of this research, it is recommended for health care providers and nursing managers to adopt programs to increase nurses' professional commitment and consequently reduce missed nursing care.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This study investigates the relationship between burnout levels of moral distress and missed nursing care in pediatric nurses. DESIGN AND METHOD: A cross-sectional study was conducted between November and December 2023. Pediatric nurses working in two hospitals and providing direct care to children (n = 140) completed the Moral Distress Scale-Revised Pediatric Nurses, MISSCARE Survey - Pediatric Version and Burnout Measure-Short Version questionnaire. Multivariate regression analysis modeling was applied to test the mediating effect on the relationship between burnout, moral distress, and missed nursing care. RESULTS: There was a significant positive correlation between the Moral Distress Scale-Revised Pediatric Nurses and its sub-dimensions and the Burnout Measure-Short Version (p < 0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the mean MISSCARE- Survey-Ped score of the nurses participating in the study and its sub-dimensions and Burnout Measure-Short Version (p < 0.05). Providing Benefit-Do No Harm, one of the Moral Distress Scale-Revised Pediatric Nurses sub-dimensions, and Labour Resources, one of the MISSCARE sub-dimensions, were found to be predictors of burnout. The ethical principle of Providing Benefit-Do No Harm was found to mediate between moral distress and burnout and reduce burnout associated with missed care. CONCLUSIONS: Accordingly, as the nurses' moral distress and inability to meet the necessary patient care increase, their burnout levels also increase. Providing Benefit-Do No Harm is an basic ethical principle that will positively affect the burnout level of pediatric nurses. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: This study may provide insights into ethics training, communication improvement strategies, and individual support intervention programs aimed at reducing moral distress, and burnout and improving the coping mechanisms of nurses working in pediatric wards.
