Full textDescriptive study which was carried out in order to analyze the positive and negative features related to pulmonary tuberculosis patients nursing assistance. This analysis was based on the nursing workers reports. We categorized the elements that compose the critical incident (situation, behavior and consequence). We interviewed nursing workers of an infectious diseases unit at Hospital das Clínicas a general hospital in the Medicine School of Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo, Brazil. We analyzed the positive and negative situations, behaviors and consequences that came up from their reported situations. We selected 26 nursing workers, among them Nurses, Auxiliaries, Technicians and Nursing Attendants in order to be able to identify those items in the reports. This population was chosen by the fact of being deeply involved in taking care of patients with infectious diseases, mainly pulmonary tuberculosis. We obtained 24 (twenty-four) reports, from which we obtained 94 (100.0%) critical incidents and, among these, 38 (40.5%) were considered to be positive and 56 (59.5%) were negative, in their view. When categorizing the elements that compose the critical incident, we obtained an overall 94 (100.0%) situations, from which 38 (40.5%) were viewed as positive and 56 (59.5%) as negative. As to the behaviors, we obtained 70 (36.7%) behaviors with positive references and 121 (63.3%) with negative ones, totalizing 191 (100.0%). About the consequences, they summed up to 143 (100.0%), being 54 (37.8%) considered to be positive and 89 (62.2%) negative. By observing the components of critical incidents, we obtained a higher number of negative references. The behavior from incidents that had a greater number of positive and negative references, prevailing the negative ones, obliges the nursing professional to provide the patient and his/her family with pulmonary tuberculosis orientation on transmission, treatment and preventing, because pretty often they do not feel safe or prepared to do it. We observed, based on the reports, the necessity to improve the knowledge on the treatment and precautions related to this disease, so that nursing workers may give safer and better quality nursing assistance.

Full textThis study aimed at identifying and analyzing positive and negative incidents involving clients physical exposure and the invasion of their privacy during caregiving in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) resulting from the need of partial or total nudity for the performance of various types of care and procedures. The population consisted of 15 nurses working in the ICU for adults in the city of Maringá PR, Brazil. The Critical Incident Technique (CIT) was used as a methodological procedure, thus obtaining 30 accounts of which 15 were positive and 15 were negative. From these, 22 positive critical incidents (PCIs) and 30 negative critical incidents (NCIs) were extracted. The incidents were compiled in 6 categories: basic needs, admission and permanence in the ICU, therapeutic procedures, physical evaluation, visiting hours and sexuality manifestation. The behaviors presented by the health team which were extracted from the critical incidents were grouped in 5 categories: gender-related questions, privacy protection and maintenance, attitudes from professionals, client orientation and health team orientation. The identified clients behaviors were distributed in 3 categories defined as gender-related questions, protection and maintenance of clients privacy and attitudes. The outcomes to the health team and clients stemming from the incidents comprised four categories formulated as negative feelings, positive feelings, impairment of caregiving quality and assurance of caregiving quality. The interpretation of results showed that the most frequent situation category in the PCIs was basic needs (21.2%), whereas in the NCIs, it was admission and permanence in the ICU (15.4%). The health teams behavior category which prevailed in the PCIs (41.1%) and in the NCIs (41.4%) was privacy protection and maintenance. The predominant clients behavior category in the PCIs was gender-related questions (45.1%) and in the NCIs it was privacy protection and maintenance (59.6%). The health teams most frequent consequence category in the PCIs was assurance of caregiving quality (41.1%), and the clients was positive feelings (37.6%). It was also shown that the category negative feelings prevailed in the NCIs for the health team (41. 5%) as well as for clients (57.3%). It was verified that the nursing staff was better prepared to deal with problems related to meeting basic needs; however, lack of preparation and skills to manage most situations was also observed. It was found that the health team and clients, particularly the nursing staff, showed similar feelings concerning the clients physical exposure during caregiving. Additionally, it was shown that the aspects ensuring better caregiving quality to both were intimacy protection, respect, trust, orientation and understanding with regard to such protection, whereas those which most frequently impaired caregiving quality were lack of protection, intimacy invasion, disregard of clients by the professionals and the teams difficulty in dealing with certain situations. Gender difference between the caregiver and the client was noted as a complicating factor in addition to the arrangement of beds in the units, which predisposes the client to exposure and impairs privacy protection. The need to better prepare the health team to cope with conflict situations stemming from physical exposure arose, while the sociocultural aspects of the individuals involved must be taken into account. Finally, it is pointed out that understanding the aspects which permeate physical exposure in the realms of caregiving is essential if the humanization of health care settings is to be achieved.

Full textAbstract Background: In our everyday lives worldwide, people are affected regardless of gender and age by accidents, deaths and other traumatic events. Some professions involve a greater risk of being exposed to traumatic events. Examples of these are ambulance, emergency personnel, police and health care personnel, primarily in emergency care. These events can sometimes become overpowering. One way to counteract burnout and post-traumatic stress symptom (PTSD) in healthcare professionals is to carry out debriefing talks. This is done with the healthcare staff who has participated in a traumatic event. Aim: The purpose of this study was to describe the experience of debriefing in healthcare professionals in emergency care in connection with traumatic events in their professional practice. Method: Literature study that contains a total of 10 scientific articles, five of which are qualitative and five are quantitative. Results: The study results show that debriefing is perceived as a positive tool when it comes to unloading after a traumatic event for the healthcare staff in emergency care. The main factors raised in the study are time and place for debriefing, debriefing impact on the communication between the healthcare staff, the choice of debriefing leader and the need for well-designed guidelines for debriefing. Conclusion: The present study demonstrates that debriefing should be regarded as an effective tool for counteracting mental illness in the healthcare staff and that debriefing also reinforces communication between the various professional occupational groups in emergency care. The study also shows that well-designed guidelines are important for achieving the purpose of the debriefing.

Full textAim: The aim of this study was to describe how the nursing staff within themunicipality's special housing and short term care perceived their caring forpatients receiving palliative care.Method: The study is based on eight interviews with enrolled nurses. The datacollection method was based on the Critical Incident Technique. The analysis ofinterviews was carried out with qualitative content analysis.Result: Cooperation between the care team and the relatives had a great andsignificant impact on how care was delivered. At times the nursing staff felt thatthe nurse was not present during various nursing interventions. Distribution ofstaff during the day contributed to the continuity of the interaction. The enrollednurses expressed that different environmental factors were either helpful orobstacles in the interaction between the dying person and their relatives. Theenrolled nurses illuminated the importance of respecting the patient's wishes. Thenursing staff provided the families with support which contributed to a feeling ofcloseness. Furthermore, the enrolled nurses felt that their presence withoutdemands and stress were significant in the interaction between the dying personand their family. It was important that the dying patient and their families weresatisfied with symptom control. It was significant to provide a dignified treatmentafter death.Conclusion: The overall theme was that the nursing staff perceived that interactionand collaboration between the care team, family and the patient was of significantimportance for a secure and dignified end of life care.

Full textBurnout is a syndrome of emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation and reduced personal accomplishment that may occur amongst individuals who work primarily with people. Nurses and doctors working in oncology must care for many critically ill and dying patients. Pretoria is a city with a high concentration of oncology institutions. The aim of this research is to evaluate the incidence of burnout amongst health care professionals in Pretoria oncology centres, to assess whether certain variables have an influence on the levels of burnout and to compare the situation in Pretoria to the rest of the world. A questionnaire was distributed to all health care professionals working in oncology centres in Pretoria. The questionnaire consisted of an informed consent, demographic data and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. The participants included doctors, nursing staff, radiographers and social workers in both state and private health care institutes, involving radiotherapy, chemotherapy and palliative care units. 240 questionnaires were distributed and 156 were returned. Results show that 24.65% - 32 .87% of participants experienced a high degree of burnout, which is average compared to the rest of the world. Burnout in cancer care workers has been reported to be 22.1 - 53.3% in the rest of the world. Young, single participants appeared to experience a greater incidence of burnout, which is consistent with the literature. The incidence of burnout amongst healthcare professionals, in Pretoria oncology centres appear to be average when compared to the rest of the world. However, language problems, cultural differences and other limitations of the burnout scale may have played a role and warrants further research.

Full textMy research findings also show that PSI reports are an important source of information that can generate important insights about patient safety in primary care dentistry. The mixed-method analysis of PSI reports showed that most incidents in primary dental care do not result in harm. PSIs that resulted in harmful outcomes more frequently occurred intra-operatively. My findings also reveal that unsafe care in dentistry is not limited to human error, but can also be ascribed to the presence of other administrative or organisational flaws that contribute to the reported incidents. Future initiatives to improve and research clinical practice should focus on improving administrative processes to reduce delays in treatment. Also, the reduction of procedural errors through the standardisation of x-rays, medication prescription and other clinical procedures is needed. Lastly, I have constructed the first comprehensive international list of NEs for primary care dentistry. I believe my findings, including the list of NEs, can provide an evidence-base which will encourage researchers to further expand the patient safety research and development agenda in dentistry, as well as encouraging decision-makers and professional bodies to translate my findings into quality improvement strategies.

Full textThe purpose of this case study was to explore the perceptions and experiences of hospital emergency preparedness coordinators of preparing for and responding to incidents. Stakeholder and protection motivation theories provided the theoretical framework for the study. The nonprobability sampling technique of purposive sample was used to identify 10 hospital preparedness coordinators employed at acute care hospitals with emergency departments located in Connecticut and Massachusetts. A field-tested researcher developed 20-question interview questionnaire guided data collection. This qualitative case study answers the questions: What are hospital emergency preparedness coordinators perspectives of hospital preparedness? How do hospital emergency preparedness coordinators prepare for a hospital incident? How do hospital emergency preparedness coordinators respond to a hospital incident? What factors do hospital emergency preparedness coordinators believe best prepares a hospital for incidents? Ranked in order of replication, the researcher identified three themes using first and second cycle coding techniques with pattern coding: (a) planning, (b) training, and (c) communication. Control and motivation emerged as subthemes. Results of the study provide detail rich data for hospital emergency preparedness coordinators, and provide insight and information for stakeholders from all types of private and public organizations to improve hospital emergency preparedness programs.

Full textIntroduction: Health care associated infections (HCAIs) have a negative impact on public health, with an impact on mortality, morbidity and quality of life. The most common HCAIs in Sweden are health care associated urinary tract infections (UTI). One important component in preventing HCAIs are regular measurements and feedback to these. Instruments that are currently used for measuring HCAIs at a local and national level in Sweden are marker-based journal review and the Anti-Infection Tool (AIT). Aim: The aim of this study was to validate the AIT and compare the incidence of health care associated UTI measured with the AIT against both manual journal review and marker-based journal review. The aim was also to study the presence of urinary catheters in conjunction with a healthcare associated UTI. Methods: In 2017, data was collected from 143 records from a random sample of patients admitted to somatic wards at Södra Älvsborg's Hospital. From the AIT, diagnosed health care associated UTI and community-acquired UTI were studied and validated against manual journal review. Also, the incidence of health care associated UTI in the AIT was compared with that found in marker-based journal review. Results: Incidence of health care associated UTI before the validation was 1.5% while the estimated incidence after manual journal review and validation was 3.6%. Marker-based journal review showed an incidence of 1.1%. In 65.6 % of the cases with health care associated UTI, the patient was equipped with urinary catheter. The most common cause of incorrect registration of health care associated UTI was that patients with urinary catheters were assessed as community-acquired UTI. Conclusion: The reported incidence of health care associated UTI differs greatly between these instruments. The incidence is probably much higher than what is currently reported using these instruments. To obtain good quality of monitoring data, knowledge and journal reviews of high quality are required. However, the generalizability of the result of this study is limited, due to the relatively small study sample.

Full textSyftet med studien var att beskriva patienters erfarenheter av hur den personligaintegriteten respekteras i olika vårdsituationer. Varje människa har rätt att blirespekterad som en individ och inte utsättas för intrång i den personliga sfären. Då dettainte alltid respekteras i vårdsituationerna blir det intressant att skaffa kunskaper om hurpatienter upplever detta. I studien användes en kvalitativ ansats. Med hjälp av criticalincident metoden undersöktes patienters positiva och negativa erfarenheter av hur denpersonliga integriteten respekterades i olika vårdsituationer. Nio informanter deltog istudien, dessa bidrog med arton berättelser. Materialet analyserades kvalitativt. Treöverordnade teman med fem underteman framstod. Övergripande handlar fenomenetom att bli respekterad som människa. De tre överordnade temana är att bli lyssnad till,att bli sedd och att bli förstådd. Resultatet visar att om den personliga integriteten interespekterades blev patienter kränkta och ett onödigt lidande orsakades därmed avvården. Studien har betydelse för vården då respekt för integriteten är ett grundläggandebehov för patienters upplevelse av hälsa och lidande.
The aim of this study was to describe patient’s experiences of how privacy is respectedin health care. Every human being has the right to be respected as an individual and notbe subjected to interference in the personal sphere. Since this is not always respected inhealth care, it is interesting to gain knowledge about patient’s experiences. Aqualitative method was used in the study. By using the critical incident techniquepatient’s positive and negative experiences of personal integrity in health care wasreviewed. Nine informants participated and contributed eighteen stories. The materialwas analyzed qualitatively. Three superior themes with five subthemes found. Overall,this phenomenon is about to be respected as a human being. The superior themes are tobe heard, to be seen and to be understood. The result shows that if the personal privacywas not respected, the patient’s felt violated and an unnecessary suffering was therebycreated of health care. The study has implications for health care because the integrityis a fundamental need for patient’s experiences of health and suffering.

Full textAbstract Background: In Sweden, approximately 200,000 people have heart failure. Heart failure can be chronic, complex and involves lifelong treatment. It is a serious disease in which about 50% with severe heart failure die within a year. There are no clear guidelines when transition to palliative care for patients with heart failure occurs. Objective: The purpose was to identify experiences that nurses considered to be important for initiating palliative care for patients with heart failure, and what actions thereafter were taken. Methods: A qualitative design with inductive approach was chosen for this study. A total of 15 unstructured interviews were conducted and analyzed on the basis of the Critical Incident Technique. Results: The result was divided into two parts. It was found that a generally deteriorated health were experiences that the nurse considered to be of importance for transition to palliative care. In the results it emerged that measures that was taken led to more oriented palliative care for the patients. Conclusion: To identify patients with heart failure who were in need of palliative care was important but difficult and required knowledge. There is a need to develop aids and tools to facilitate identification for palliative care, as it causes care to be more person-centered and the treatment strategy changes.

Full textBackground: Scientific articles has shown that patients that have had a stroke during their hospitalization receive lesser degree of care, than patients that has been admitted with a stroke. Literature has shown we need more knowledge how to improve stroke care to get a secure, knowledge based and effective stroke care in hospitals. Aim: The study aims to identify the events that have been critical in the management of hospitalized patients who suffer a stroke. Method: CIT has been used as a data collection method to bring in information, it has been used in the airforce and more recently has been used more widely in national healthcare. Qualitative contents analysis, according to Burnard (1996), gives basis for analyzing the material. The analysis was based on 10 interviews with nurses who have experience of patients diagnosed with stroke during hospitalization. Interviews were conducted at 5 (five) different departments within the Sahlgrenska Hospital in spring 2016. Result: Critical events occur in connection with care in all parts of the care of in-hospital patients who suffer a stroke. Overall categories: unexpected event, the safety of patients affected by department resources and the backside of specialist care. The categories identified in the micro, meso and macro systems are interacting between the different systems. Conclusion: Access to current measurements is important to get an overview of the current state of in-hospital stroke patients in the form of numbers and where they occur. The study shows that there is a great need for a well-functioning stroke chain for in-hospital stroke patients and that there are implemented projects in the US that could be helpful for future improvements in stroke care. It is also important to focus on communication and information to relatives.

Full textOne basic expectation that citizens have of government is to restore order in the face of devastation. With each catastrophic incident, politicians and administrators step under the public microscope, as they attempt to bring order out of chaos. Failure to perform such a basic governmental function subjects officials and agencies to immense scrutiny with personal and organizational repercussions. In the quest for the answers to What can be done better next time and How do we prevent this from happening again elected officials and bureaucrats seek various policies. A recent example of this is the National Incident Management System (NIMS). NIMS is a fusion of Incident Command Systems (ICS) and broad governmental policy aimed at providing a systematic response to incidents. The fact that NIMS became policy was quite possibly a predictable event in an incremental series of events that began in the early 1970s. This thesis reveals how these predictable and incremental efforts have pushed our national frameworks into an increasing state of complexity with the potential of catastrophic failure. Further, this thesis recommends ways that will harvest success in the face of a catastrophic or disastrous incident without increasing complexity.
