The aim of the study was to conduct a pharmacoeconomic evaluation of the atezolizumab, vemurofenib and cobimetinib (ATZ+VM+COB) combination and the nivolumab and ipilimumab (NIVO+IPI) combination for the treatment of BRAF-confirmed metastatic melanoma in adult patients.Materials and methods. With the help of mathematical modeling methods, a pharmacoeconomic “cost-effectiveness” analysis; a “budget impact” analysis; a sensitivity analysis to the changes in the initial parameters of the model, were carried out.Results. The analysis of literature sources made it possible to conclude that the combination of ATZ+VM+COB compared with the combination of NIVO+IPI (15.1 and 11.2 months, respectively) has a greater clinical efficacy in terms of a progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with metastatic melanoma. When choosing the ATZ+VM+COB combination, the total cost of treatment for one adult patient with metastatic melanoma per course was lower, compared to the NIVO+IPI combination (RUB 8 326 864.89 vs RUB 7 172 751.68); the difference amounted to 1 154 113.21 rubles. When calculating the “cost-effectiveness” ratio for a year of a progression-free survival, the advantage of the ATZ + VM + COB combination in comparison with the NIVO + IPI combination, remained (5 700 200.01 rubles vs 8 942 400.10 rubles); the difference amounted to 3 242 200.09 rubles. The sensitivity analysis demonstrated the developed model stability to an increase in the cost of the ATZ + VM + COB course up to + 16%, a decrease in the cost of the NIVO + IPI course to –13%, and a reduction in the PFS to –37% against the background of the ATZ + VM + COB course. The “budget impact” analysis showed the possibility of reducing costs by 8 655 849.11 rubles with an increase from 5% to 20% in the proportion of the patients administrated with the ATZ+VM+COB combination, and with a decrease from 95% to 80% in the proportion of the patients administrated with the NIVO+IPI combination.Conclusion. The results of the work have shown that within the healthcare system of the Russian Federation, the triple combination of ATZ+VM+COB is a clinically cost-effective option for the treatment of adult metastatic melanoma patients with a confirmed BRAF mutation.

Full textAbstract:
INTRODUCTION: Research shows a high prevalence of mental disorders and psychotropic medication among older people, especially in nursing homes. Knowledge of this concerning issue among Icelandic nursing homes residents is limited, despite its importance for mental health policymaking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of psychiatric diagnoses and psychotropic medication in Icelandic nursing homes, the relationship between these factors and how they have evolved from 2003 to 2018. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The research data comes from interRAI MDS 2.0 assessments for nursing home residents in Iceland, for the period 2003-2018. The study uses the last assessment of each year (N=47,526). RESULTS: Approximately half of the residents were diagnosed with anxiety and/or depression; 49.4% in 2003 and 54.5% in 2018. The use of psychotropic drugs increased from 66.3% to 72.5%. Antidepressants were most commonly utilized, with an increase from 47.5% to 56.2%. The use of antipsychotics drugs has remained nearly unchanged, at around 26%. Inconsistency was found between psychotropic medication and psychiatric diagnoses; on average, 18.2% of the residents took psychotropic drugs without being diagnosed and 22.3% took antipsychotics in other cases than recommended. CONCLUSION: Age related changes influence the effect of psychotropic drugs and studies have not supported their positive long-term effects for older people who are also sensitive to associated adverse effects, especially in cases of polypharmacy. Therefore, it is important that psychotropic drugs use is based on accurate mental health assessment. To reduce psychotropic medication, other mental health interventions need to be developed.

INTRODUÇÃO: Pautados na importância da qualificação profissional de enfermeiros na avaliação e cuidado ao prematuro a partir da análise de óbitos infantis no mundo, desenvolvemos um serious game enquanto ferramenta tecnológica educacional para facilitar a aprendizagem em enfermagem neonatal. O serious game e-Baby é uma ferramenta digital cujo objetivo é oferecer ao estudante a possibilidade de realizar a avaliação clínica e o cuidado ao prematuro em simulação virtual, antes de lidar com o bebê real no cenário de prática, podendo errar e refletir até compreender e aprimorar suas habilidades em um ambiente seguro. Ainda, as tecnologias devem ser vinculadas ao contexto e objetivos educacionais, respeitando e compreendendo os diferentes estilos de aprendizagem. OBJETIVO: Avaliar o impacto do serious game e-Baby: integridade da pele na aprendizagem cognitiva de estudantes de enfermagem, considerando os estilos de aprendizagem. MÉTODO: Trata-se de pesquisa metodológica quanto ao desenvolvimento da tecnologia e possui delineamento experimental e randomizado, com coparticipação de outras universidades brasileiras, para a avaliação do impacto na aprendizagem. Foi oferecido um curso extracurricular semipresencial aos participantes e, mediante aceite voluntário e seguindo os preceitos éticos em pesquisa, estes foram submetidos a avaliações de pré e pós-teste, caracterização, estilos de aprendizagem, avaliação do serious game e do curso. Foram divididos em dois grupos: controle e experimental, aleatoriamente. O tema do curso foi a avaliação clínica do prematuro quanto à necessidade de integridade da pele em alinhamento com o serious game desenvolvido. A análise estatística foi paramétrica, t de Student, considerando distribuição normal, utilizando também os testes Qui- Quadrado e exato de Fisher em determinadas variáveis. RESULTADOS E DISCUSSÃO: O serious game e-Baby: integridade da pele é uma tecnologia inovadora, validada por experts nas heurísticas de usabilidade em interface, elementos educacionais, conteúdo, jogabilidade e multimídia. Foi considerado relevante para auxiliar a aprendizagem de estudantes de enfermagem por refletir a prática clínica do enfermeiro no tema, segundo avaliação de enfermeiros em neonatologia. Teve avaliação geral muito satisfatória pelos estudantes, independentemente de seus estilos de aprendizagem, indicando que apesar das especificidades e preferências, consiste em uma tecnologia versátil para uso na educação em enfermagem. O estudo corrobora a literatura indicando as preferências dos estudantes para a inovação tecnológica e adesão de dispositivos e ferramentas, já inseridas e populares no contexto de nossa sociedade. As estratégias de ensino preferidas pela amostra demonstram interesse pela resolução de problemas, pelo papel ativo e por tarefas claramente vinculadas à prática do enfermeiro, reforçando o potencial sucesso da mudança de paradigma no ensino superior partindo do modelo tradicional para a adoção de novas teorias que valorizam o estudante como centro de sua própria aprendizagem. Não representou impacto significativo na aprendizagem cognitiva entre os grupos do estudo, apesar de ter refletido em melhores escores analisados em média aritmética para o grupo experimental. CONCLUSÃO: Apesar de o serious game e- Baby não ter representado impacto estatisticamente significativo na aprendizagem cognitiva dos estudantes de enfermagem, foi muito bem aceito pela amostra independentemente dos estilos de aprendizagem de cada participante. As principais características atribuídas a ele são: didático, interessante, estimulante para acesso de outras ferramentas semelhantes no curso, educativo ao oferecer feedback imediato e auxiliar a aprendizagem na percepção dos participantesINTRODUCTION: Based on the importance of professional qualification for nurses and preterm newborns\' care, taking into account the analysis of child mortality in the world, we have developed a serious game as an educational technological tool to facilitate learning in neonatal nursing. The serious game e-Baby: skin integrity is a digital tool which objective is to offer students the possibility to perform clinical evaluation and provide care to the premature baby in a virtual simulation, before he/she does it in a real baby in the scenario of practice. So, the students can make mistakes and reflect on them until comprehension is fully reached and the skills improved in a safe environment. Besides, technologies must be linked to the educational context and goals, respecting the different learning styles. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the impact of the serious game e-Baby: skin integrity in the cognitive learning of nursing students, considering the learning styles. METHOD: It is a methodological research as the development of the technology and randomized experimental research because it evaluated the impact on students\' learning, with participation of other Brazilian universities. It was offered an extracurricular and blended course to the participants which responded to evaluations of pre and post-test, characterization questionnaire, learning style index, evaluation of the serious game and the course, following ethical in research precepts. The participants were divided into control and experimental groups, randomly. The course\'s theme was the clinical evaluation of a preterm newborn and the proper interventions about the need of tissue integrity focused on skin, in alignment with the developed serious game. It was used parametrical analysis Student t, considering normal distribution, using also tests as Chi-square and exact of Fisher in certain variables. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Serious game e-Baby: skin integrity is an innovative technology, validated by experts in usability heuristics of interface, educational elements, content, gameability and multimedia. It was considered relevant to support nursing students\' learning in neonatology and its general evaluation given by students was highly satisfactory regardless their learning styles, indicating that, in spite of specificities and preferences of different users, it is a versatile tool to use in nursing education. This study corroborates literature indicating students\' preferences for technological innovation and adhesion to devices and tools already inserted and popular in our society context. Preferred teaching strategies by the sample demonstrate its interest for problem resolution, active role and tasks clearly linked to the nurses\' practice, reinforcing the potential success of the paradigm change in higher education from traditional model to the adoption of students-centered new theories. E-Baby did not present statistical difference in cognitive learning between the groups, despite it reflected on better scores for experimental group when adopting arithmetic mean. CONCLUSION: Despite the serious game did not represent impact in cognitive learning of nursing students, it was highly accepted by the sample regardless learning styles and validated by experts. Its main characteristics given by participants were: didactical, stimulating to access other digital tools in the course, educative as it offers immediate feedback and supportive for learning in the perception of students

Full textAbstract:
Bakgrund: Sjuksköterskestudenter kan känna sig sårbara i början av sin verksamhetsförlagda utbildning (VFU) och kan påverkas både positivt och negativt av bemötandet från både handledare och övrig personalgrupp. Syfte: Att undersöka sjuksköterskestudenters upplevelser av bemötande från handledare och övrig personalgrupp och hur detta påverkar förmågan att utföra omvårdnad, samt studenternas upplevelse av studentrollen. Metod: Kvalitativ forskningsdesign med fem semistrukturerade intervjuer. Resultat: Resultatet delades in i tre huvudkategorier: Bemötande från handledare; Bemötande från övrig personalgrupp och Studentroll. Ett bra bemötande karaktäriserades av vänlighet, involvering i arbetet och förmedlande av trygghet. Ett dåligt bemötande kunde bestå av försummelse, att känna sig i vägen och dålig struktur. Studenterna hade haft skiftande roller under VFU och samtliga hade positiva aspekter. Studenterna upplevde att de hade utvecklats i sin förmåga att utföra omvårdnad. Slutsats: Studien påvisar att det är viktigt för studenter hur de blir bemötta på sin VFU, och vilken roll de får på arbetsplatsen. Den visar även att det är betydelsefullt att samtliga ur personalgruppen visar studenten ett bra bemötande. En undersköterskeroll kan vara utvecklande för sjuksköterskestudenter i termin två. Det förekommer dock negativa aspekter i bemötande från handledare och personalgrupp, vilket tyder på att studentens roll på VFU bör förtydligas.Background: Nursing students may feel vulnerable in the beginning of a clinical practice placement. The relationship and interaction with their preceptors and other staff members can have a positive as well as a negative effect on the nursing student. Aim: To investigate nursing students’ experiences of the relationship and interaction with their preceptors and other staff members and the influence these factors have on their ability to perform nursing care, and also how the students experienced the student role. Method: Qualitative design with five semi-structured interviews. Result: The result was divided into three main categories: Relationship and interaction from preceptors; Relationship and interaction from other staff members and Student role. A good relationship and interaction was characterised by kindness, involvement in tasks and a sensation of safety. A bad relationship and interaction would consist of neglect, the sensation of being in the way and a bad structure. The students had a variety of roles that emerged during their clinical practice which all had positive aspects on their ability to perform nursing care. Conclusion: The study presented how important the relationship and interaction with the preceptors and other staff members are for nursing students during their clinical practice placement. As important is the role the student acquires. The study presents the importance of a good relationship with all staff members. A health care assistant role can be of value for nursing students during their first clinical practice placement. Certain negative aspects emerged indicating that clarifying information about the student role during clinical practice placement is needed.

Holmes, Frances Ann. "The illuminative evaluation of a Project 2000 pre-registration nursing course." Thesis, University of Surrey, 1996. http://epubs.surrey.ac.uk/842730/.
Full textAbstract:
This study is about the progress of a cohort of students who commenced a Project 2000 pre-registration nurse education course in April 1991. The research was undertaken entirely within one setting - in a College of Healthcare which was one of the 13 Demonstration colleges in England - and was conducted over a period of three years and ten months. The aim of the study was to evaluate what was considered by the nursing profession, government officials and educationalists, to be a radically new and innovative nursing course. A case study research approach of illuminative evaluation was used, within which a three stage framework of observation, further enquiry and evaluation was followed. The emphasis of the research was on the illumination of the processes, perceptions and contingencies which resulted in particular outcomes for the participants. This has enabled a comprehensive understanding of the complex realities which surrounded this innovative course, and the effects that a number of contemporaneous events have had on the findings. A description of these events has been presented, as has a literature review, overviews of both the history which preceded the introduction of Project 2000 and the professional concerns regarding the rapidity with which it was implemented. Multiple data collection methods were used to obtain the required information from the April 1991 cohort, the teachers involved with these students, the practitioners from three health authorities and other members of the College staff. The analyses of the data and the progressive focusing on the findings, have resulted in the identification of numerous positive and negative aspects and outcomes, together with problem areas and particular issues associated with the rapidity of the implementation of the course and the management of change. The placing of the negative and positive findings in a broader explanatory context, demonstrates how they relate to each other and with the research literature, and how the resulting conclusions have been reached. The research demonstrated that there were some very positive aspects and desirable outcomes which arose from the P.2000 programme. However, the concerns are the detrimental effects which arose from the introduction of numerous innovations into a constantly changing environment. The nursing profession had placed great importance on the introduction of P.2000, but insufficient time had been allowed for the application of management of change theories which would have enabled a more successful implementation to take place.

Full textAbstract:
Most nursing history has focused on the politics, identity and development of the profession. This study focuses on practice. It examines the surge of interest in complementary and alternative medicine {CAM) in British nursing during the second half of the twentieth century and explores how and why some nurses used CAM in their practice. It examines the therapies that nurses employed and how these practitioners were supported. The merit of this research lies in exposing evidence of a more clearly designed organisation of CAM in nursing than has been suggested previously and places it within a discrete timeframe, one already recognised as a period of reform in medicine. In using the methodology of oral histories, archives and nursing journals, the research is rooted in nursing history, importantly demonstrating that CAM practice in nursing was not only part of a shift in consciousness away from a medical model, but was an extension of the patient-centred nature of nursing culture in the late twentieth century. In presenting a movement that challenged the dominance of biomedicine, this thesis demonstrates the emergence of a changing model of healthcare and contributes an important perspective to the modern history of medicine and healing.

Full textAbstract:
In Australia, stomal therapy nurses are registered nurses who have undertaken an educational programme in the care, counselling and rehabilitation of persons-who have, or who could potentially have, a wound, an ostomy (that is an artificial opening into a body cavity) or incontinence of bodily waste. The genesis of stomal therapy nurses in Australia as a specialty group within the broader nursing profession was in 1971, when 11 founding members established an association for registered nurses with an interest in the care of patients with stomas. However, the serendipitous event that pre-empted the formation of this special interest group, can be traced to an individual nurse's first clinical experience of caring for a patient with a stoma in 1959. The purpose of this study was to uncover the historical events that led to the development and evolution of stomal therapy nurses in Australia, and to describe the lived experiences of stomal therapy nurses within that historical context. The study employed two different qualitative methodological approaches. Separate historical and phenomenological studies were conducted and the uniqueness and philosophical foundations of both methodologies were preserved. The two independent studies stand alone in their sample population, data collection, data analysis and findings. The historical study findings opened a window to the past and revealed the persons, events and forces, that were instrumental in the development and evolution of stomal therapy nurses and nursing in Australia. The phenomenological study findings revealed the essence of what it is to be a stomal therapy nurse in Australia and a member of the Australian association of Stomal Therapy Nurses. Comparative and contextual analysis of the historical and phenomenological findings was then conducted in order to enhance the understanding of the phenomena. This comparative and contextual analysis of historical and phenomenological findings has been termed histro-phenomenology and this approach has revealed the key findings of this study. These key findings revealed an exciting insight into the professional characteristics that define a Good nurse and-the behaviours and attitudes that reflect the essence of Good nursing.

O número de idosos(as) vem aumentando e esta mudança populacional vem redefinindo as relações sociais e constituindo uma nova e preocupante imagem. O envelhecimento é uma experiência singular, sujeita a influências sócio-culturais e o corpo que envelhece é diferente do modelo social vigente e, em relação ao gênero, as mulheres são mais avaliadas pela sua aparência física, passando o envelhecimento a funcionar como uma ameaça, associada à perda da libido e da sexualidade, uma necessidade humana básica, independente de faixa etária, que está para além da genitalidade. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi verificar o conhecimento produzido acerca da interface das temáticas, mulheres idosas, gênero e sexualidade por meio da avaliação sistemática de periódicos da Enfermagem, Saúde Pública e Gerontologia, no período compreendido entre os anos de 2003 e 2007. É um estudo de abordagem qualitativa, caracterizado como pesquisa bibliográfica. A coleta dos artigos foi realizada por meio de descritores pré-estabelecidos e a análise se deu por categorização. Foram consultados 220 exemplares e pré-selecionados 362 artigos (111 na Enfermagem; 95 na Saúde Pública e 156 na Gerontologia), destes, sete foram selecionados, pois versavam sobre envelhecimento, gênero e sexualidade. Através da leitura desses artigos foi possível perceber uma preocupação em relação à qualidade de vida ou a promoção de um envelhecimento saudável, mas sexualidade e gênero das mulheres idosas continua um tema invisível. Foram abstraídas três categorias: feminilização da velhice, questão social da velhice feminina e idosa assexualizada. Sendo o envelhecimento e a própria gerontologia realidades recentes, falta preparo para a temática e, talvez por isso, o escasso material disponível. Apesar da produção pouco expressiva, é importante salientar que os(as) enfermeiros(as) e os grupos de estudos e pesquisa de gênero vêm despontando e apresentando preocupações relevantes com a temática. Quando se refere ao cuidado integral em idosas, não se pode esquecer a sexualidade, pois esta também está ligada ao cuidado e para tanto, os currículos dos cursos de graduação na área da saúde deveriam trazer mais reflexões sobre gênero e sexualidade das mulheres idosas nos componentes ligados à gerontologia e saúde da mulher, portanto, convidam-se os(as) professores(as) para que introduzam a temática gênero e sexualidade nos Projetos Pedagógicos dos Cursos (PPC) e que façam essa discussão nas disciplinas/conteúdos que contemplem a mulher idosa.
The number of elderly has increased and this change in population is redefining social relationships and is constituting a new and worrying image. Aging is a singular experience, subjected to socio-cultural influences and the aging body is different from the current social model and, regarding gender, women are the most evaluated in their physical appearance, so aging is turned into a threat, associated with the loss of libido and sexuality, a human basic need, regardless the age, which is beyond the genital aspect. The objective of this research is to verify the knowledge produced around the interface of themes, elder women, gender and sexuality, through systematic evaluation of Nursing journals, Public Health and Gerontology, in a period that comprises the years from 2003 to 2007. It is a study of a qualitative approach, characterized as bibliographical research. The collection of articles was done through pre-established descriptions and the analysis was carried through categories. 220 samples were consulted and 362 articles were pre-selected (111 in Nursing; 95 in Public Health and 156 in Gerontology), from these, seven were selected, because they talked about aging, gender and sexuality. Through reading of these articles it has been possible to notice the concern regarding quality of life or the development of healthy aging, but sexuality and gender of elder women continues to be an invisible theme. Three categories were abstracted: feminization of aging, social matter of women’s aging and asexualized elder. Considering aging and gerontology itself as recent realities, there is a lack of preparation for the theme and, maybe due to this, the rare available material. Despite the non expressive production, it is important to highlight that nurses and the groups of study of researches of this gender started to emerge and they are presenting relevant concerns about the theme. When it comes to the integral care of the elderly, one can not forget sexuality, because this is also connected to care and for that the syllabus o the graduation courses on health area should bring more reflections on the gender and sexuality of elder women in the components connected to gerontology and women’s health, therefore, professors are invited to introduce the theme gender and sexuality in the so-called Projetos Pedagógicos dos Cursos (PPC) and to create this discussion in the disciplines / contents which involve the elder woman.

Fueron abstraídas tres categorías: feminilización de la vejez, cuestión social de la vejez femenina y mayor sin sexualidad. Siendo el envejecimiento y la propia gerontología realidades recientes, falta preparo para la temática y, quizás por eso, el escaso material disponible. A pesar de la producción poco expresiva, es importante decir que los (as) enfermeros (as) y los grupos de estudios y investigación de genero vienen despuntando y presentando preocupaciones relevantes con la temática. Cuando se refiere al cuidado integral en mayores, no se puede olvidar la sexualidad, pues esta también está relacionada al cuidado y para tanto, los currículos de los cursos de graduación en la área de la salud deberían traer mas reflexiones sobre genero y sexualidad de las mujeres mayores en las asignaturas relacionadas a la gerontología y salud de la mujer, por eso, se invitan los (as) profesores (as) para que introduzcan la temática genero y sexualidad en los Proyectos Pedagógicos de los Cursos (PPC) y que hagan esa discusión en las asignaturas/contenidos que contemplen la mujer mayor.

Trata-se de estudo qualitativo desenvolvido por meio de análise de discurso cujo objetivo foi analisar a discursividade dos gestores em diferentes níveis de gestão sobre transferência da política do tratamento diretamente observado (TDO) no controle da tuberculose. Para isto, esta análise parte do contexto de decisão macropolítico para o contexto micropolítico tendo como cenário local o município de Ribeirão Preto-SP, considerado prioritário para o controle da doença. Foram entrevistados quatro sujeitos-gestores envolvidos com a política do TDO nas instâncias estadual, regional, municipal e no nível intermediário entre a regional e o município, mediante aceite de termo de compromisso. Os dados foram coletados no período de agosto a dezembro de 2013, as entrevistas foram audiogravadas, transcritas, respeitando-a na sua íntegra. O corpus da pesquisa foi composto por recortes, formação discursiva e marcas linguísticas, quais foram selecionados dos discursos dos sujeitos. A análise ocorreu mediante a fundamentação teórico-metodológica da Análise de Discurso (AD) de matriz francesa, que se sustenta sobre três vertentes teóricas: o Materialismo Histórico, a Linguística e a Psicanálise. Este tipo de análise não visa uma análise exaustiva horizontal ou de toda extensão do objeto de pesquisa, por entender que este não se esgota e que um discurso institui-se sempre em relação aos outros. Busca-se apoiar na exaustividade vertical com o intuito de contemplar o objetivo do trabalho e da temática abordada. Os dados foram organizados sob o eixo da temática da transferência de políticas e da temática da TB os quais apontaram para diferentes efeitos de sentido durante a transferência da política do TDO como o silenciamento, apagamento, polifonia, polissemia e contradição durante o processo de transferência desta política nos diferentes níveis de gestão, que passou gradativamente pelo processo de transferência autoritária para a transferência voluntária da maior instancia política para a menor. Destaca-se que no município este processo ocorreu de forma incompleta visto que não houve a superação do paradigma da desconcentração das ações de TB para a Atenção Primária em Saúde (APS)This qualitative study was conducted using discourse analysis, the objective of which was analyzed the reports of different level managers regarding policy transfer of Directly Observed Treatment (DOT) in the control of tuberculosis. This analysis starts with the context of macro-political decisions in the micro-political context and the local setting was the city of Ribeirão Preto, SP, Brazil, considered a priority in the control of the disease. Four managers involved with the DOT policy at the state, regional, and city levels and another manager in the intermediate level between region and city were interviewed after signing consent forms. Data were collected from August to December 2013. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, respecting it in its entirety. The study\'s corpus was composed of excerpts, discursive formations and linguistics marks, which were selected from the participants\' reports according to the guiding question. Analysis was based on the French theoretical-methodological framework of Discourse Analysis, which in turn is grounded on three theoretical aspects: the Historical Materialism, Linguistics and Psychoanalysis. An exhaustive horizontal analysis, or an analysis that encompasses the entire extent of the research\'s object, is not intended in this type of analysis because the topic is not exhausted and discourses are always instituted in relation to others. The objective is to be supported in vertical exhaustiveness to contemplate the objective of the study and the topic under study. Data were organized under policy transfer\' and tuberculosis\' thematic axis, which indicate different effects of meanings during DOT policy transfer, such as muting, blanking, polyphony, polysemy, and contradictions during this policy transfer process at the different levels of management, which gradually moved from an authoritative transfer to a voluntary transfer, from a higher political instance to a lower one. Nonetheless, this process was not completed in the city because the paradigm decentralizing TB actions from Primary Health Care (PHC) was not overcome

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe new millennium saw the publication of The NHS Plan in 2000, which bought a welcome focus to community health services (CHS) and the role of community nursing. We outline the proposals contained in the plan which furthered the quasi-marketisation of the NHS and increased commissioning of health care at the local level of Primary Care Trusts (PCTs)—replacing Health Authorities (HAs) and Primary Care Groups (PCGs). A further review by Lord Darzi and subsequent policy, Transforming Community Services: Enabling new patterns of provision (DoH, 2009) instigated the separation of commissioning/provision and laid out timetables for how PCTs were to do this. The long held roles of the district nursing service continues in this era, although not always clearly defined, understood or acknowledged and policy attempts to expand their remit feature heavily. This included more clinical tasks as well as focusing on such things as public health/health protection and promotion programmes that improve health and reduce inequalities. This chapter also describes the uncertainty for frontline nurses that the Transforming Community Services (TCS) brought in terms of who their employer would be or what management arrangements they would work under given the establishment of some standalone Trusts, some third sector and some combined acute/community Trusts. The aims of the TCS programme were bold but in reality achieved little by the end of the era.

Full textAbstract:
Recognition and prompt treatment of the acutely ill patient is a significant issue in clinical practice (NICE 2007). The need for all nurses to be able to recognize, assess and promptly escalate (ensure timely and effective management) patients whose condition is deteriorating is stressed in the literature (NCEPOD 2005; NPSA 2007). Therefore it is an important skill and your university will want to ensure via OSCE that you are adequately prepared for any emergency that may arise in practice. It must be emphasized that this skill is a complex skill and most universities do not assess this skill until the final year of your course. The key to succeeding in this OSCE is understanding the need for systematic assessment, and timely intervention and escalation will be stressed throughout this chapter. It is likely that you will be allowed approximately half an hour to demonstrate this skill and answer related questions. Revision of key material will enable you to understand why assessment is important and provide you with a systematic framework to use in the OSCE and in clinical practice. Concern over NHS staff ’s management of the deteriorating patient has been highlighted in the literature since the late 1990s. McQuillan et al. (1998) first discussed the concept of suboptimal care suggesting that often deterioration in patients was ignored, misdiagnosed and/or poorly managed in ward environments resulting in increased mortality and morbidity in ward patients. Since McQuillan’s work several other studies have identified similar problems (McGloin et al. 1999; NCEPOD 2005). More recently NICE (2007) has published guidance on recognition and management of deterioration and the Department of Health (2009) has published competencies related to recognition and management of deterioration that all acute staff should achieve. Review of this literature highlights that several issues are clearly important in recognition of acute deterioration and the need to utilize a systematic assessment tool linked to a robust track and trigger scoring system is an important consideration in practice. Smith (2003) was instrumental in developing the ALERT® framework that has been adopted internationally as a robust systematic assessment tool.

Full textAbstract:
Since the 1980’s, questions have been asked the world over about the efficiency and contribution of nursing in the hospital treatment of patients and nursing performance within the framework of nonhospital health care. The cause for these tendencies has many roots. For one, we can determine a push in professionalism through the increasing importance of nursing sciences on whole. The basic focus is on comparability, standardization (Johnson et al., 2005), and securing quality (ICN, 2003). Also, a significant part of nursing systems internationally are publicly financed and legally determined. This has the consequence that the political decision-makers, particularly in context with the financing and planning of nursing structures, have more of an interest in controlling the nursing systems and disposing of useable nursing data.

Full textAbstract:
As part of the measuring physical observations simulated examination, students will be asked to measure, assess and record pulse, body temperature, respirations and oxygen saturation. This assessment is becoming more common in all universities as it has been identified as a mandatory simulated assessment within the NMC Essential Skills Clusters (NMC 2007). Although this chapter will focus upon each observation in turn, it is imperative that when undertaking physical observations the findings are not assessed in isolation. Like a jigsaw, each result, alongside the patient’s appearance, pallor, demeanour and responsiveness, link together to form an overall picture of the patient’s condition. The skill of undertaking these observations may sometimes be reviewed as being routine, but the skill has important clinical significance. Students have to demonstrate their underpinning knowledge and to make sense of the relevance of the observations—this can be complex and challenging. Some student nurses will have previous experience, prior to commencing their nurse education training, of taking patients’ physical observations, but the ability to demonstrate an understanding of the underpinning knowledge differentiates between the role of a health care support worker and a student nurse. Revision of key material will enable the student to understand, undertake and assess the relevance of measuring pulse, body temperature, respirations and oxygen saturation. The importance of the professional nurse’s ability to accurately assess, record and evaluate pulse rate, body temperature, respirations and oxygen saturation cannot be underestimated. Concern has been raised that NHS staff are failing to recognize patient deterioration in a timely manner. In a study by the National Patient Safety Agency (NPSA 2007) factors for this lack of recognition included failure to take physical observations, not acknowledging the significance of the observations and finally not reporting on issues that were of concern, or acting upon these findings. Guidelines on recognizing and managing patient deterioration have been issued by NICE (2007) alongside competencies for recognition and management of a deteriorating patient, which all staff working in acute settings should achieve (DOH 2009). Throughout these the importance of assessing, recording, evaluating and appropriately reacting to the results of physical observations cannot be denied.

Full textAbstract:
Each year hundreds of millions of people contract an infection while in the receipt of heath care. At any time 1.4 million people worldwide are suffering from an infectious complication associated with health care (WHO 2005). Health care acquired infections not only lead to pain discomfort, disability, and possible death for the recipient but also place a huge emotional and physical burden on relatives and carers. In England and Wales an average of one in 11,000 people die of a hospital acquired infection (HAI) each year; this figure rises to 1 in 300 for patients over the age of 80 (Bandolier 2006). Hospital admission is now a major risk factor for health care related infection (Gould 2009). In 2007 around 9,000 people in England died with an MRSA bloodstream infection or related Clostridium difficile infection (National Audit Office 2009). These figures do not include deaths from other HAIs so in fact the number of deaths from HAIs could be greater. In addition, it is also believed that many people die from a health care acquired infection which is not identified on the death certificate. In England, health care related infections have been estimated to cost a billion pounds annually (WHO 2005). The World Health Organization has identified hand hygiene as the primary measure to reduce infections (WHO 2009). Everyone involved in the provision of health care must be trained in effective hand decontamination (NICE 2003). Unclean hands move microorganisms from one place to another. Transmission of infection by hands has been identified with recent hospital outbreaks of MRSA and Clostridium difficile. Good hand hygiene is one of the most effective methods of reducing hospital acquired infections. Hand decontamination removes transient bacteria acquired from recent contact with an infected item or person. While hand decontamination is advocated before contact with every patient regardless of setting, patients in hospital are at greatest risk of acquiring an infection. In the UK 7.6% of patients admitted to hospital become infected. In England the figure is even higher at 8.19% (Nazarko 2008). It is essential for health care students to not only be able to perform effective hand washing, but also understand the principles of the procedure, as well as the possible physical, emotional and financial consequences of failing to perform hand hygiene.

The skin is an organ that serves many functions in maintaining homeostasis in the body (Bryant, 2000). A wide range of diseases manifest in changes in the skin and its appendages, and because the skin is visible and its disorders are often disfiguring, skin disorders can cause emotional and psychological stress for children and their families (Ball & Bindler, 2007). Skin diseases affect 20–33% of the population at any one time, seriously interfering with activities in 10% (Byrant, 2000). Epidemiological evidence suggests that many cases of skin disease do not reach the general practitioner (GP) or even the local pharmacist; nevertheless, each year about 15% of the population consult their GPs about skin complaints (Bryant, 2000). Skin disorders are among the most common health problems in children (Butcher & White, 2005). The infant and child are possibly more vulnerable to the effects of skin disorders and breakdown due to their underdeveloped integumentary system. Understanding the normal condition of the skin can help in the identification of abnormal signs and prompt treatment of skin disorders (Butcher & White, 2005). This chapter will focus on the integumentary system of the child, with reference to the normal structure of the skin together with common alterations and injuries to the skin of the child and the skills required for their nursing management. At the end of this chapter you should be able to do the following: ● Understand the normal child skin anatomy and physiology. ● Understand the fundamentals of a skin assessment in a child. ● Develop an awareness of the management of common skin alterations. ● Understand the nature and treatment of a child with a skin injury. The skin of an infant or child is normally fundamentally the same as that of an adult, although the blood and nerve supplies are immature and the dermis thinner, with less collagen and fewer elastic fibres. This means that the skin is fragile and can be more easily damaged through physical and mechanical trauma (Turnball, 2007). The skin of a newborn is found to have lanugo, which is a very fine, soft, and unpigmented coat of hairs covering its body until it is shed about 14 days after birth.

Full textAbstract:
In this chapter we will consider the knowledge, skills, and attitudes expected of you as a newly qualified mental health nurse, before discussing how to apply for a job and develop your career. To help you consider this we have tried to include contributions from people who have a range of backgrounds and perspectives, who all contribute to mental health services, including a student about to qualify, a modern matron, a clinical manager, a director of nursing, a professor, and service users. To set the scene, our first personal contribution is from Julie Cresswell, a third year student nurse at the Birmingham City University and the Royal College of Nursing’s Student Nurse of the Year 2007. We asked Julie a series of questions that we hoped would help you in preparing to become a qualified nurse; these are her answers and thoughts about the future of mental health nursing and her career. In preparation for qualifying, I am now reflecting upon the experience, knowledge base, and skills that I have developed during my training, along with the transferable skills that I already had before I embarked upon this career. As mental health nursing students, we will all have followed a similar academic course equipping us with a certain level of theory and practical skills. However, what makes us individual is how we intend to use what we have learned throughout our lives and the philosophy that underpins our work. I began this course with the belief that psychiatric nursing was grounded in science. I now feel that while science can hypothesize about the causes of mental illness, understanding and accepting a client’s life experience is central to supporting them in times of mental distress. As I progress through my career, my approach may develop or change direction but for the moment, I feel that it will be vital to be able to communicate my own perspective to future employers. Developing your own approach to mental health nursing, along with an audit of what you can offer an employer in terms of practical skills, knowledge, and experience, establishes your own ‘unique selling point’ in a competitive jobs market.

Full textAbstract:
Malaysia is moving towards a developed country status and it is imperative that the healthcare provided be at a higher standard than it is today. As members of the healthcare team, nurses play an essential role in the provision of healthcare. As such it is timely that nurses’ education be upgraded. As most of them only have a certificate or diploma in nursing, one way to upgrade the nurses is by providing opportunities for a baccalaureate degree. However, due to the shortage of nurses, nurses find it a challenge to enroll in a full-time on-campus programme. One way to help nurses meet the challenge is by providing an online distance learning programme to Malaysian nurses. And, to ensure the success of the online distance learning programme, it was realized that the nursing students need to be adequately prepared for an online learning environment. How much preparation will be determined, among other things, by their prior experience and skill in using technology as well as by their belief and attitude towards online distance learning. A survey was conducted on a cohort group of students during a face-to-face precourse orientation, that is, prior to the start of the online program. The findings of the survey are presented and discussed in the paper and implications for the future are highlighted.

Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), December 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.23970/ahrqepccer258.
Full textAbstract:
Objectives. Diagnostic errors are a known patient safety concern across all clinical settings, including the emergency department (ED). We conducted a systematic review to determine the most frequent diseases and clinical presentations associated with diagnostic errors (and resulting harms) in the ED, measure error and harm frequency, as well as assess causal factors. Methods. We searched PubMed®, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL®), and Embase® from January 2000 through September 2021. We included research studies and targeted grey literature reporting diagnostic errors or misdiagnosis-related harms in EDs in the United States or other developed countries with ED care deemed comparable by a technical expert panel. We applied standard definitions for diagnostic errors, misdiagnosis-related harms (adverse events), and serious harms (permanent disability or death). Preventability was determined by original study authors or differences in harms across groups. Two reviewers independently screened search results for eligibility; serially extracted data regarding common diseases, error/harm rates, and causes/risk factors; and independently assessed risk of bias of included studies. We synthesized results for each question and extrapolated U.S. estimates. We present 95 percent confidence intervals (CIs) or plausible range (PR) bounds, as appropriate. Results. We identified 19,127 citations and included 279 studies. The top 15 clinical conditions associated with serious misdiagnosis-related harms (accounting for 68% [95% CI 66 to 71] of serious harms) were (1) stroke, (2) myocardial infarction, (3) aortic aneurysm and dissection, (4) spinal cord compression and injury, (5) venous thromboembolism, (6/7 – tie) meningitis and encephalitis, (6/7 – tie) sepsis, (8) lung cancer, (9) traumatic brain injury and traumatic intracranial hemorrhage, (10) arterial thromboembolism, (11) spinal and intracranial abscess, (12) cardiac arrhythmia, (13) pneumonia, (14) gastrointestinal perforation and rupture, and (15) intestinal obstruction. Average disease-specific error rates ranged from 1.5 percent (myocardial infarction) to 56 percent (spinal abscess), with additional variation by clinical presentation (e.g., missed stroke average 17%, but 4% for weakness and 40% for dizziness/vertigo). There was also wide, superimposed variation by hospital (e.g., missed myocardial infarction 0% to 29% across hospitals within a single study). An estimated 5.7 percent (95% CI 4.4 to 7.1) of all ED visits had at least one diagnostic error. Estimated preventable adverse event rates were as follows: any harm severity (2.0%, 95% CI 1.0 to 3.6), any serious harms (0.3%, PR 0.1 to 0.7), and deaths (0.2%, PR 0.1 to 0.4). While most disease-specific error rates derived from mainly U.S.-based studies, overall error and harm rates were derived from three prospective studies conducted outside the United States (in Canada, Spain, and Switzerland, with combined n=1,758). If overall rates are generalizable to all U.S. ED visits (130 million, 95% CI 116 to 144), this would translate to 7.4 million (PR 5.1 to 10.2) ED diagnostic errors annually; 2.6 million (PR 1.1 to 5.2) diagnostic adverse events with preventable harms; and 371,000 (PR 142,000 to 909,000) serious misdiagnosis-related harms, including more than 100,000 permanent, high-severity disabilities and 250,000 deaths. Although errors were often multifactorial, 89 percent (95% CI 88 to 90) of diagnostic error malpractice claims involved failures of clinical decision-making or judgment, regardless of the underlying disease present. Key process failures were errors in diagnostic assessment, test ordering, and test interpretation. Most often these were attributed to inadequate knowledge, skills, or reasoning, particularly in “atypical” or otherwise subtle case presentations. Limitations included use of malpractice claims and incident reports for distribution of diseases leading to serious harms, reliance on a small number of non-U.S. studies for overall (disease-agnostic) diagnostic error and harm rates, and methodologic variability across studies in measuring disease-specific rates, determining preventability, and assessing causal factors. Conclusions. Although estimated ED error rates are low (and comparable to those found in other clinical settings), the number of patients potentially impacted is large. Not all diagnostic errors or harms are preventable, but wide variability in diagnostic error rates across diseases, symptoms, and hospitals suggests improvement is possible. With 130 million U.S. ED visits, estimated rates for diagnostic error (5.7%), misdiagnosis-related harms (2.0%), and serious misdiagnosis-related harms (0.3%) could translate to more than 7 million errors, 2.5 million harms, and 350,000 patients suffering potentially preventable permanent disability or death. Over two-thirds of serious harms are attributable to just 15 diseases and linked to cognitive errors, particularly in cases with “atypical” manifestations. Scalable solutions to enhance bedside diagnostic processes are needed, and these should target the most commonly misdiagnosed clinical presentations of key diseases causing serious harms. New studies should confirm overall rates are representative of current U.S.-based ED practice and focus on identified evidence gaps (errors among common diseases with lower-severity harms, pediatric ED errors and harms, dynamic systems factors such as overcrowding, and false positives). Policy changes to consider based on this review include: (1) standardizing measurement and research results reporting to maximize comparability of measures of diagnostic error and misdiagnosis-related harms; (2) creating a National Diagnostic Performance Dashboard to track performance; and (3) using multiple policy levers (e.g., research funding, public accountability, payment reforms) to facilitate the rapid development and deployment of solutions to address this critically important patient safety concern.
