Abstract:

The results showed that most respondents had good critical nursing competency scores including primary assessment: airway assessment (53.8%); breathing assessment (56.4%); Circulation assessment (61.5%); Disability assessment (56.4%); and Exposure assessment (59%), professionalism (56.4%), critical nursing care competencies (79.5%), Clinical reasoning process (71.8%), Patient safety (61.5%) and critical care exam score (46.2%). The result of statistical test with Pearson test obtained that the primary assessment: airway assessment (ρ = 0.038); circulation assessment (ρ = 0.029); Exposure assessment (ρ = 0.023), competence of critical nursing care (ρ = 0.049), clinical reasoning process (ρ = 0.028) and patient safety (ρ = 0.001) have a significant relationship to the critical care exam score. The implementation of learning methods for journal sharing of critical care has a positive impact on competencies and results in good student competencies.

Abstract:

IntroductionImproved quality in clinical supervision and assessment of student nurses in nursing home clinical placements is vitally important to effective recruitment and preparation for this healthcare sector. Knowledge regarding supervision and assessment practices within these settings is limited. Also, knowledge of evolving e-learning tools on the quality and effectiveness of these educational practices seems to be absent.Methods and analysisThe aim of the “Improving quality in clinical placement studies in nursing homes” (QUALinCLINstud) study is to develop and evaluate how a web-based programme can optimise supervision, assessment and learning during nursing home placements. The study applies a participatory, mixed-methods case study design, organised in four work packages (WPs). WP1 will explore how the nurse education institution address the quality of student nurses’ clinical placements in nursing homes. In WP2, clinical supervision and assessment practices will be explored, and described from multiple stakeholder perspectives. In WP3, based on the findings from WP1 and WP2, a web-based pedagogical supervision and assessment programme will be developed through a developmental co-productive process between nurse education institutions, practice settings and student nurses. In WP4, the web-based programme will be pilot-tested and evaluated through a mixed-methods approach. A range of data collection procedures will be used throughout the project, for example, questionnaires, interviews, observations and workshops.Ethics and disseminationThe ethical conduct of the study is approved by the Norwegian Centre for Research Data (2018/61309 and 489776). The results will be disseminated through scientific articles, three PhD theses, presentations at national and international conferences, and through publicly accessible trade journals and newspapers. The results will generate knowledge to inform supervision and assessment practices in nursing home placements. Moreover, the study will generate knowledge concerning the developmental process of a web-based supervision and assessment programme, and the value of e-learning tools applied in clinical nursing education.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide an empirical basis for considering in-service training, tenure prolongation and continuing education as methods for enhancing nursing performance. Design/methodology/approach A self-reported questionnaire was used to collect data from 532 nurses, who were selected using the simple random sampling method from ten hospitals in Accra North, Ghana. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to test the study’s hypotheses. Findings The resulting model is of good fit at 5 per cent significance level (χ2=1.492, p=0.222), with in-service training found to be the ultimate method for enhancing nursing performance. The fitted CFA model also shows that in-service training is positively associated with education and tenure at 1 per cent significance level (p<0.001). The overall evidence suggests that training, continuing formal education and tenure prolongation are methods for improving nursing performance. Originality/value Apart from its contribution to the literature, this study applies validated primary data to empirically identify key methods for enhancing nursing performance.

Abstract:

Background: The reform of the Spanish higher education to adapt to the European Higher Education Area involves, among other issues, the students’ participation in the curriculum assessment. The aim is to understand the insights of both nursing professionals and current undergraduate students of nursing on the connection between the knowledge acquired throughout the degree and the professional healthcare practice. Methods: An exploratory, descriptive qualitative study was carried out at a Spanish University. By convenience sampling, twelve nursing professionals and twelve 4th-year students of the Degree in Nursing were included. In two phases, twelve semi-structured interviews and two focus groups were conducted in order to triangulate data. A thematic analysis of data was carried out, later to be coded by two researchers. Results: Two main themes were identified: Evidence-based nursing vs. experience-based nursing, and a theory-practice gap. The topics that were specifically highlighted were the coexistence between professionals who work according to evidence and those whose work is based on experience, and the lack of connection between the training received during the degree and actual healthcare practice. Conclusion: Nursing care work varies in terms of the implementation of evidence-based care. Nursing training is perceived as being affected by a theory-practice gap. To achieve the linking between nursing theory and practice, a great effort on stakeholders would be needed.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective To evaluate nursing students’ assessment and communication skills through an objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) within a high-fidelity simulation using a student-simulated patient (SSP) and analyze the validity, reliability, degree of difficulty, and discriminability of the OSCE. Methods A descriptive study was conducted at one nursing school in Macao. All scenarios were designed using a high-fidelity simulator combined with SSPs. A convenience sample of 54 baccalaureate nursing students completed the OSCE. The nursing assessment OSCE checklist (NAOC) and the communication evaluation rubric (CER) were used as observational measurements with three-point Likert scales (2 = Achieved, 1 = Partly achieved, 0 = Not completed/Incorrect). Results Difficulty coefficients of the exam were 0.63 for nursing assessment skills and 0.56 for communication skills. The discrimination index of the majority items of the NAOC (86.4%) was >0.20, showing a better to good discriminability. The items of the CER had satisfactory indexes of item discrimination (from 0.38 to 0.84). Students received high scores in conducting blood oxygen saturation and cardiac and lung auscultation but low scores in vomiting and diarrhea assessment. Students presented good communication skills in eye contacting and listening, but culture assessment needs to be improved. The students with experiences in simulation or simulated patient (SP) interactions had better assessment and communication skills than students without those experiences. There was a positive relationship between nursing assessment and communication skills (r = 0.67, P = 0.000). Conclusions SSPs were involved in enhancing the realism of interactions in simulated scenarios. Nursing students can conduct nursing assessments specific to patient conditions, explain the conditions to the patient, and ensure that the patient remains informed at all times of the precautions to be taken. However, students’ cultural awareness and some communication skills need further training. With moderate difficulty and high discrimination index, OSCE showed satisfactory reliability and validity.

Abstract:

Bronchiolitis is the leading cause of morbidity and hospitalization in infants under the age of one year. Supportive treatments and regular assessment remain the mainstay of care for infants admitted to hospital. Nurses play an important role in the assessment of infants with bronchiolitis; however, this is not well described in the literature and consequently little is known about what strategies nurses employ in assessing infants with bronchiolitis. The aim of this study was to explore bronchiolitis assessment in the context of nursing practice. A naturalistic inquiry study was undertaken using think aloud and retrospective probing data collection methods. The results revealed that the information gathered by nurses in their assessment of infants with bronchiolitis was varied and the process of acquiring and evaluating this information was multifaceted and holistic in nature. A close partnership between the nurse and mother was identified, and the mother’s expert knowledge and ability to identify subtle changes in the infant’s clinical condition over time was essential to the assessment process. The assessment partnership with families provides nurses with the most comprehensive and holistic view of the infant’s clinical condition and vital assessment information could be lost if this partnership does not occur.

Abstract:

Background. An increasing number of systematic reviews/meta-analyses (SRs/MAs) of clinical trials have begun to investigate the effects of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) nursing in patients with stroke. To systematically appraise and synthesize these results, we conducted an overview of SRs/MAs. Methods. Eight databases from their inception to April 2020 were searched to include all SRs/MAs on TCM nursing for stroke. Methodological quality assessment was performed using Assessing the Methodological Quality of Systematic Reviews 2 (AMSTAR-2) and evidence quality assessment was performed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE). Results. Eleven SRs/MAs regarding TCM nursing for stroke were included. The assessments with AMSTAR-2 indicated that the methodological quality of all included SRs/MAs was critically low. According to the evaluation results of GRADE, 10 (40%) outcomes were rated as critically low-quality evidence, 7 (28%) low-quality evidence, and 8 (32%) moderate-quality evidence. Descriptive analysis results showed that TCM nursing was effective for stroke. Conclusions. All included SRs/MAs suggested positive findings of TCM nursing for stroke, but the credibility of the results is limited. Studies with methodologically rigorous and adequately powered are still needed in this field.

Abstract:

The proliferation of the electronic health record (EHR) has led to increasing interest and opportunities for nurse scientists to use EHR data in a variety of research designs. However, methodological problems pertaining to data quality may arise when EHR data are used for nonclinical purposes. Therefore, this article describes common domains of data quality and approaches for quality appraisal in EHR research. Common data quality domains include data accuracy, completeness, consistency, credibility, and timeliness. Approaches for quality appraisal include data validation with data rules, evaluation and verification of data abstraction methods with statistical measures, data comparisons with manual chart review, management of missing data using statistical methods, and data triangulation between multiple EHR databases. Quality data enhance the validity and reliability of research findings, form the basis for conclusions derived from the data, and are, thus, an integral component in EHR-based study design and implementation.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction An escharotomy is an emergent procedure to treat circumferential, full-thickness burns. If left untreated, distal ischemia, compartment syndrome, respiratory failure, tissue necrosis, or death may occur. This procedure involves an incision through areas of eschar to release pressure within the affected compartment. An escharotomy may be performed at the bedside under sterile conditions by an experienced provider with the assistance of the nursing staff. The assisting nurse must have knowledge of the technique, purpose, and associated complications of the procedure. Nursing responsibilities may include pre-/post-procedure care, assessment, assistance with required equipment, patient teaching, & documentation. Methods Extensive literature review was conducted to identify the existence of nursing standards of practice regarding assessment and assistance with bedside escharotomy. A 20-question survey was sent to burn center nursing staff to evaluate inconsistencies in nursing knowledge and practice during bedside escharotomy. Results Information gathered via literature review revealed no consensus among U.S. burn centers in nursing standard of practice for a bedside escharotomy. Survey results further demonstrated inconsistencies in nursing knowledge and practice. Notable results from the survey included variance in post-procedure assessments, provider presence and skill level, dressing intervention, & obtaining informed consent prior to procedure. Conclusions A procedure was developed to standardize nursing practice during bedside escharotomy. This procedure outlines required supplies and preparation of equipment, implementation of nursing assessment and assistance, special considerations & complications, patient teaching, and required documentation. Images were included in the procedure for reference. Nursing staff received education regarding the purpose and utilization of the procedure. The procedure is available electronically to all health system employees. Future plans include reevaluation of staff knowledge and utilization of the procedure. Applicability of Research to Practice Development of a standard bedside escharotomy nursing procedure has the potential to improve level of knowledge, consistency in practice, and patient outcomes. Continued utilization and evaluation of this standard of practice supports the need for a consensus among U.S. burn centers.

zakhstan. Methods. In this study the leadership competency dimensions were summarized into six leadership competency domains: Setting direction, Managing services and driving results, Leading people and teams, Enhancing nursing professionalism and ethics, Communication and team collaboration skills, and Self-leadership. The questionnaire based on these competency domains was sent to respondents electronically and in paper version for the respondents to assess their own leadership competencies. Results. According to the results, all competency domains and different competency statements in the questionnaire were relevant. In all competency domains, the managers have some or good competency level. However, in enhancing nursing professionalism and ethics, the ability to apply the nursing reform in service development was seen challenging as only half of the respondents had good or excellent competency. The nursing reform described in the Comprehensive Plan of Nursing Care Development in the Republic of Kazakhstan until 2020 was not familiar to almost half of the respondents. According to the results, the educational degree in nursing required should be a higher education degree (bachelor level). Conclusions. Medical universities have an important role in enhancing nursing research, nursing profession and nursing leadership education. It is recommended that the medical universities promote and support the structural changes in healthcare organizations by competence development of chief and senior nurses

Abstract:

This paper argues that fuzzy representations are appropriate in applications where there are major sources of imprecision and / or uncertainty. Case studies of fuzzy approaches to specific problems of medical diagnosis and classification are described in support of this argument. The solutions use a variety of fuzzy methods including clustering, fuzzy set aggregation and type- 2 fuzzy set and Type-2 fuzzy relation modeling of linguistic approximations. It is concluded that the fuzzy approach to the development of artificial intelligence in application systems is beneficial in these contexts because of the need to focus on uncertainty as a main issue.

Abstract:

Background: Clinical competence in nursing practices includes all the theoretical and clinical knowledge used by the student in a clinical setting. It also involves psychomotor as well as problem-solving skills. The assessment focuses on evaluating the student's ability to provide both safe and competent care for the patients. However, it requires the use of several assessment methods that must be varied according to the components of the clinical competence. Several studies have revealed that the evaluation of this competency is mostly limited to knowledge testing or the acquisition of technical skills verification. Aims: This study has two objectives. Firstly, it aims to analyze the assessment practices related to clinical competence and adopted by teachers in higher institutes of nursing and health technology in Morocco. Secondly, it seeks to identify the difficulties faced by them in using a variety of appropriate assessment tools to target all the components of clinical competence. Methods: Based on the theoretical model adapted from the Miller’s pyramid by Mehay and Burns in 2009, relating to the assessment of clinical competence, a self-administered questionnaire was shared with 129 nursing teachers. Results: The results indicate that 98.06% of participants use a given tool to assess clinical competence; however, using the appropriate tools to evaluate all its components is limited, and the assessment tools are not characterized by variety. Conclusion: Reflecting on the evaluation of clinical competences, a clinical assessment model could be proposed to be in accordance with the theoretical model and to measure its impact on nursing students' learning.

Abstract:

Introduction: Modern nursing was introduced into China by Western missionaries in the 19th century; since then, significant changes continued to occur, which provides beneficial areas of international collaboration based on trends in globalization. Methods and Materials: The description was developed through reviews of published literature, policy documents that inform Chinese nursing practice, education, and the firsthand working experiences between American and Chinese nurses and faculty. Results: 82 articles and 13 governmental documents were included. Chinese nursing has undergone significant changes in the organization, quality assessment, and roles requirements in education and practice. International collaboration areas include addressing the severe faculty shortage, maternal child care, elderly care, quality assessment, and educational programs evaluation. Discussion: Informative knowledge of changing Chinese nursing education and practices in the new millennium, the potential areas, and guides for international nursing collaboration would be meaningful to internationally involved faculty and nurses in China and America.

Abstract:

Background: One of nursing management functions is organizing nursing staff through assessing their working performances. Managing nursing staff in order to improve their working performance is vital. Thus, it needs to be well-designed to meet the patients’ expectation on health care quality. Nurses’ performance is defined as the action, achievement, or fulfillment of nurses’ responsibilities based on their tasks that have been assigned to them. Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe the nurses’ performance assessment and the nurse activities based on nursing clinical authority at the Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital Makassar. Methods: This research is a qualitative descriptive study. Data were gathered from Focus Group Discussion (FGD), individual interviews, and document analysis. Results: The study results showed that generally the assessment of the nurses’ performances at the Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital has been conducted since 2015. However, there were still some areas that need to be improved, such as the quantity indicator assessment that is currently not developed based on the nursing clinical authority. In fact, the assessment of nurses' performance for quantity indicators should be adjusted to the nursing clinical authority that has been assigned to them after completing the credentialing process as stated in the Nurse Clinical Assignment Letter. Conclusion: The assessment of nurses’ performance should be adhered to the nursing clinical authority and it is better if hospital managers may synchronize the nursing clinical authority with the online nursing logbook provided in the Hospital Information System

Abstract:

Abstract Background Rates of antibiotic use vary widely across nursing homes and cannot be explained by resident characteristics. Antibiotic prescribing for a presumed urinary tract infection is often preceded by inappropriate urine culturing. We examined nursing home urine-culturing practices and their association with antibiotic use. Methods We conducted a longitudinal, multilevel, retrospective cohort study based on quarterly nursing home assessments between April 2014 and January 2017 in 591 nursing homes and covering >90% of nursing home residents in Ontario, Canada. Nursing home urine culturing was measured as the proportion of residents with a urine culture in the prior 14 days. Outcomes included receipt of any systemic antibiotic and any urinary antibiotic (eg, nitrofurantoin, trimethoprim/sulfonamides, ciprofloxacin) in the 30 days after the assessment and Clostridiodes difficile infection in the 90 days after the assessment. Adjusted Poisson regression models accounted for 14 resident covariates. Results A total of 131 218 residents in 591 nursing homes were included; 7.9% of resident assessments had a urine culture in the prior 14 days; this proportion was highly variable across the 591 nursing homes (10th percentile = 3.4%, 90th percentile = 14.3%). Before and after adjusting for 14 resident characteristics, nursing home urine culturing predicted total antibiotic use (adjusted risk ratio [RR] per doubling of urine culturing, 1.21; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.18–1.23), urinary antibiotic use (RR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.28–1.38), and C. difficile infection (incidence rate ratio, 1.18; 95% CI, 1.07–1.31). Conclusions Nursing homes have highly divergent urine culturing rates; this variability is associated with higher antibiotic use and rates of C. difficile infection.

Abstract:

Background: Formative assessment is a pedagogical practice that improves teaching, as well as students' learning. There is a multitude of research demonstrating interest in this practice in the field of education. However, this assessment practice is poorly integrated by teachers despite its great pedagogical potential, in addition to the tensions existing between formative and summative assessment that its implementation is more formal by the institutions. Objective: The purpose of this research is to explore, as a first step, how nursing teachers conceptualize formative assessment and how they judge its usefulness in the teaching/learning process. Secondly, the study seeks to identify the main challenges that could influence the practice of formative assessment in the context of nursing education. Methods: The study used a descriptive quantitative research design. The target population of the study was composed of nursing teachers (N = 50) from the Higher Institute of Nursing and Health Techniques of Casablanca (ISPITS). This target population includes all permanent nursing teachers working at the ISPITS of Casablanca, divided into the various existing fields. They are responsible for the initial training and practical supervision of nursing students and health technicians enrolled in the cycles of the professional license. To meet our research objective, we conducted a survey using a questionnaire with 37 items divided into five dimensions based on William and Thompson's (2007) model of formative assessment. Results: The results revealed that, in teachers’ practice, the informal approach to formative assessment takes precedence over formal approaches based on planned assessment tools. In addition, their perception of the usefulness of formative assessment is oriented towards a diagnostic function of students' learning difficulties rather than a function of teaching guidance. Furthermore, the study showed that the time commitment of formative assessment and the diversity of activities required of teachers might be obstacles to a broader practice of formative assessment. Conclusion: This study offers suggestions that may help teachers facilitate and innovate the implementation of formative assessment in the field of nursing. Our research perspective is to demonstrate the effect of formative assessment on student learning outcomes through the implementation of a field experiment in collaboration with nursing teachers.

Abstract:

The importance of undergraduate nursing education has never been higher due to the aging population and complexity of patients. The blended simulation combined two and more educational methods and is an effective strategy in nursing education. This study was to evaluate the effectiveness of blended simulation using standardized patients and patients simulation. Using a convenience sampling, a quasi-experimental study was conducted. Forty undergraduate nursing students enrolled and were allocated to the experimental group (n=20) or the control group (n=20). CPX (clinical performance examination) was used to evaluate physical assessment skills. Self-reporting questionnaires were used for communication skill and learning satisfaction. χ2-test/Fisher's exact test and Mann-Whitney U test were conducted for statistical analysis. After completing the educational program, there were statistically significant higher levels of physical assessment and communication skills in the blended simulation group (p<.001) compared with the control group. Regarding learning satisfaction, there were also statistically significant differences with a higher level of satisfaction among students in blended simulation group (p=.002). This blended simulation has high potential to successfully achieve learning outcomes in undergraduate nursing education. Providing students with diverse educational methods ensure an optimal learning experience.
