Abstract:
The nursing work in the operating room has the characteristics of long time, strong technicality, and heavy work, which have an important influence on the quality of the operation. Operating room nursing recommendations based on data mining technology can solve a series of practical problems in clinical nursing and nursing management. This paper selects the clustering algorithm in commonly used data mining technology as the research object and actually analyzes the impact of this algorithm in operating room nursing recommendations. At this stage, there is little research on data mining technology in the field of nursing in China. This paper aims to provide new ideas for the field of nursing research by exploring the actual application in the field of nursing.

Abstract:

The predicted future operating room nurse and surgical technologist shortages may have significant implications for the healthcare industry. Improving the job satisfaction of operating room personnel could promote retention and provide adequate staffing in operating rooms. The job satisfaction of operating room nurses and surgical technologists can result in positive or negative work environments. The purpose of the qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the perceptions of job satisfaction of operating room nurses and surgical technologists to discover how job satisfaction influences the intent to leave or remain in the work environment of the operating room. A purposive selection was made of 12 registered nurses and 12 surgical technologists who had varying degrees of experience in the healthcare field, and were working part time or full time in the operating room of a pediatric medical center in North, Texas. Interviews were audio-recorded and the seven steps were used from Moustakas van Kaam analysis to reveal themes and patterns from the research data. Six themes emerged from the research study that included teamwork, recognition from surgeon, working with pediatric patients and their families, staff appreciation, work environment, and executive leadership. Based on the findings, further research is needed to ascertain strategies that would improve operating room registered nurses and surgical technologists’ job satisfaction and retention.

Abstract:
Operating room nurses form the corner-stone of the operating room because perioperative care of the patient rests mainly in the hands of the nursing personnel. Unique challenges face nurses functioning in the stressful surgical environment where anticipation to prevent or cope with life-threatening situations is the order of the day. The operating room nurse must be knowledgeable, skilled and alert, as he/she is held accountable for all acts of commission and omission. To ensure that nurses are appropriately educated and trained and able to keep trend with the changing technology in the operating room, it is essential that learning programmes meet the minimum standards for registration as prescribed by the South African Nursing Council. Reviewing and evaluating learning programmes on a regular basis by specialist nursing educationists, are therefore essential to ensure that the standards of education and training are maintained and upgraded if required. The aim of this study is to explore and describe the various Operating Room Nursing Science Learning Programmes offered at accredited Higher Education Institutions, utilized for the education and training of the operating room nursing students in South Africa. The proposed research is based on a qualitative paradigm and the theoretical grounding is found in Bergman’s model for professional accountability (Bergman, 1982:8). A document analysis of five approved comprehensive Operating Room Nursing Science Learning Programmes from higher education institutions in South Africa (nursing colleges and universities) was carried out, together with a sixth programme, the Operating Theatre Learning Programme, as suggested by the Standard Generating Body. Requests for permission were forwarded to the management of the selected colleges or universities for inclusion of the respective programmes in the study. The researcher formulated and utilized thirty-four essential criteria derived from three documents, the first being a document entitled “Proposed Standards for Nursing and Midwifery Qualifications” submitted to the SANC and SAQA by the SGB for Nursing and Midwifery (2001-2004). The second document entitled the Public and Private Higher Education Institutions format template for criteria for the Generation and Evaluation of Qualifications and Standards within the National Qualifications Framework was also utilized (SAQA, 1430/00) and thirdly the researcher included the most relevant criteria from the list of criteria for curriculum development as indicated by the South African Nursing Council. Various tables were compiled, to reflect the findings of the document analysis according to the thirty-three criteria indicated above, to provide a clear and broad overview of the specific data in the respective six Operating Room Nursing Science Learning Programmes utilized in the study. In conclusion recommendations for a broad macro-curriculum were made to facilitate formulation of programmes in Operating Room Nursing Science relevant to the South African context.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis was to examine the contribution of nurses to interprofessional collaboration (IPC) in the operating room (OR) guided by the Interprofessional Education Collaborative Patient Care Practice (IECPCP) framework. First, a secondary analysis of interviews with 19 registered nurses was conducted. Twenty emergent themes were identified. The most prevalent of the four dimensions (internalization; shared goals and vision; governance; and formalization) consisted of the internalization dimension relating to human interaction and sense of belonging within the interprofessional team. A scoping review then identified 20 studies evaluating four interventions (briefings, checklists, team training, and debriefings) used to improve IPC in the OR. Despite weak study designs, these interventions showed improvements in communication, teamwork, and safety outcomes. OR nurses contribute mainly through interactional processes and they require organizational support to foster their efforts in IPC. Nurse are involved in all IPC interventions and their contribution is important to support IPC in the OR.

Abstract:
Patient safety is a primary concern of members of the surgical team. Professional nurses working in the operating room play a vital role in the safety of the patients from the moment the patient enters the operating room to the discharge of the patient to the unit. Quality nursing care is of the utmost importance and therefore it is the responsibility of a professional nurse to ensure patient safety during the peri-operative period. Team work and good communication in the operating room are essential in order to ensure patient safety. Nursing care practices related to patient safety should be a key aspect to consider in rendering care to the surgical patient and professional nurses should perform their duties to the best of their ability despite lack of resources and shortage of staff. The main purpose of the study was to explore and describe nursing care practice related to patient safety in the operating room at hospitals in the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan area. Once this was established recommendations on how to enhance nursing care practice related to patient safety in the operating room were made. This study is based on a quantitative, explorative, descriptive and contextual design. Convenient sampling was used in this study. Data were collected by means of a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Ethical considerations were adhered to and the findings of the research will be disseminated appropriately. Recommendations based on the findings that emerge from the data, as well as the literature review, will be offered to enhance nursing care practice related to patient safety in the operating room.

Abstract:
The nursing workforce has experienced considerable change during the previous decade, resulting in a chronic shortage of nurses. Issues such as economic rationalism, increased workloads, changes in nursing education and the advancing age of the current nursing workforce are the chief contributors to this shortage (Australian Institute of Health & Welfare, 2005b; Buerhaus, Staiger, & Auerbach, 2000b). Operating room (OR) nursing is a primary specialty area that has been especially affected by rising nurse attrition and a reduction in nurse recruitment (Australian College of Operating Room Nurses, 2003; Australian Health Workforce Advisory Committee, 2002). Accordingly, the loss of skilled nurses from the OR specialty compounds the negative effects on morale for those who remain in the environment, as they struggle to provide safe patient care while concomitantly being responsible for the clinical development of neophyte and inexperienced nurses (Australian Health Workforce Advisory Committee, 2002; Arndt, 1998). In the midst of working in the OR environs where the nature of the associated stressors is unique, resilient qualities may assist nurses to meet and overcome these challenges. If there is to be a continued nursing presence in the OR, it is essential that nurses be given the opportunity to develop resilience. At this time when nurse retention rates are continuing to decline steadily, there is a compelling need to identify and describe the relationship between resilience and its predictors in the context of the OR. To date, little is known about predictors of resilience and their potential to ameliorate the effects of workplace stress in the OR. The overall purpose of this study was to identify and describe the predictors of resilience in OR nurses. A literature review and concept analysis of resilience was initially conducted. Hope, self-efficacy, coping and personal characteristics were identified as defining characteristics of resilience. Next, the research was conducted as a mixed method phased study that was underpinned by the pragmatist paradigm, and employed a sequenced combination of qualitative followed by quantitative inquiry (Morgan, 1998). The first phase used a mini-ethnography to identify and describe the components of workplace culture in an OR in relation to their potential impact on nurses’ ability to adapt in this culture. A triangulated approach was used involving participant observation, a reflective journal, field notes and interviews. This phase revealed that competence, knowledge, collaboration, peer support and the ability to manage challenges were central components of OR workplace culture. From these categories, three themes were abstracted and subsequently developed into constructs that were measured and validated in the larger second phase. The second phase used a predictive correlation survey to describe empirically the relationship between resilience and its hypothesised predictors in a systematic random national sample of nurses who were members of the Australian College of Operating Room Nurses (ACORN), and a combined sample of hospital nurses purposively drawn from two similar hospital sites. The survey included scales measuring perceived competence, collaboration, managing stress, self-efficacy, hope, coping, and resilience, as well as gathering information about the demographic characteristics of nurse respondents. Out of a total potential sample of 1,730 OR nurses, the overall response rate was 51.7% (n = 896). Differences between the ACORN and hospital samples were found in age, years of experience, education and years of employment; therefore, the national and hospital samples’ findings were analysed separately. Five independent variables – hope, self-efficacy, coping, managing stress and competence – predicted resilience in the larger sample of ACORN respondents (n = 772). For the substantially smaller sample of hospital respondents (n = 124), hope, self-efficacy and managing stress predicted resilience. Given that the smaller hospital sample resulted in a similar model, this consistency lends strength and weight to the revised resilience model. Over 60% of the variance in resilience was explained by the independent variables in each model. Given the dearth of literature describing the efficacy of resilience in ameliorating stress in OR contexts, the results of this study have extended the theoretical application of the resilience concept to include a nursing context. There is a need to implement resilience-building strategies that address the culture of the OR, both at the departmental and organisational levels. Strategies that provide a supportive workplace environment in relation to goal-orientation, the provision of stress management and education programs, and strategies that facilitate cultural assimilation may improve resilience, and hence retention and recruitment rates in the OR. The findings of this study support the need for further research not only to test the stability of the proposed model among other groups of nurses but also to explore further predictors of resilience in the OR setting.

Abstract:
This research utilized a descriptive study to establish a relationship between educational background and accuracy of estimating blood loss. The null hypothesis, that the educational background of health care providers in the operating room has no effect on the accuracy of estimating blood loss , was tested. Ten nurse anesthesia students, 8 certified registered nurse anesthetists, 16 operating room registered nurses, 12 anesthesiologists, and 9 surgeons were included in the sample population. A number of different protocols were utilized to assess the relative accuracy of blood volumes estimates. The study was separated into four stations. Station 1 consisted of three tables, each with different sizes and types of sponges with varying amounts of blood placed on them. Four estimates were required at each table, for a total of 12 estimates. Stations 2-3-4 contained different aggregates of blood-soaked materials, requiring a single estimate at each station. Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that the means across all groups in Station 1 reached statistical significance beyond p = .05 (< .001), and the hypothesis is rejected for equal group means. However, the results for Stations 2-3-4 for equal group means did not reach statistical significance ( p = .136), therefore, do not reject the null hypothesis of equal group means.

Abstract:

The operating room (OR) is a unique setting and specialty area of nursing practice that requires optimal orientation and education to render safe and efficient patient care. Unfortunately, there will be a significant shortage of nurses in the operating room in the next five to ten years. The need for new nurses in the operating room is essential as many OR nurses in the workforce will retire within the next five years. Currently, most nursing programs no longer offer perioperative courses in their curriculum. Subsequently, this trend has led to the need for hospitals to educate and orient new nurses to their operating rooms. As hospitals educate their own OR nurses, retention following orientation becomes a priority.

The purpose of this study was to explore nurses' experiences as they transition to a new area of nursing practice, the operating room. A qualitative focused ethnography was conducted using Leininger's ethnonursing research method. Fourteen RNs transitioning to the OR agreed to participate in this study. The OR was a first time experience for the RNs. The setting was a large teaching hospital located in an urban area. Observations and interviews were conducted with the RNs to explore their experiences as they transitioned in the OR.

The RNs' transition included learning the didactics of OR nursing through the web-based AORN Nursing 101 online computer course, practicing skills learned in a simulation laboratory, and rotating through surgical specialty areas under the supervision of an RN preceptor. Influences that facilitated the RNs transition to the OR were the

positive learning experience, perception of belonging and acceptance into the OR culture, stimulating environment, supportive personnel, collegiality among peers, and presence of nursing in the OR. Influences that hindered the RNs' transition to the OR were inconsistency in precepting, being in a hostile environment, limited exposure to the OR prior to the RNs' transition, and an overwhelming environment. Meleis' Transition model emerged in the RNs' experiences of transitioning to the OR.

The need to educate nurses in the operating room is essential to assure safety and positive outcomes for the surgical patient. Structured perioperative courses implemented by hospitals or with partnerships with nursing programs can enhance the education, transition, and retention of nurses new to the OR. The importance of a nurse educator having an advanced degree with experience in the OR specialty was essential in coordinating and mentoring nurses transitioning to this new practice area. RNs who are prepared to precept were vital in the education and retention of these RNs. The need for consistent preceptors was recognized as an essential factor to the RNs' successful transition. The findings contribute to evidence-base practice for the design and implementation of perioperative programs for new nurses.

Abstract:
Infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality during the post-operative phase of patients’ recovery. Wound infections are the second most commonly encountered type of nosocomial infection. Because wound infections can be introduced by not applying infection control measures and sterile technique principles in the operating room, the implementation of infection control principles is an imperative. The aim of this study was to explore and describe infection control practices related to the prevention of Surgical site infections in the operating rooms in a public health care sector in the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality. The findings were compared with practices, as indicated in an evidence-based guideline. The research design was quantitative, explorative, descriptive, comparative-descriptive and contextual in nature. The research sample consisted of all the professional nurses, in the operating room. The data were collected by means of a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive statistics was used to present the data in the form of tables and graphs. Based on the analysis of the data, some recommendations were made for the implementation of infection control practices, in order to prevent Surgical site infections in the operating room.

Abstract:
The current nationwide shortage of registered nurses is a growing problem impacting patient care and hospital operations. The operating room is the area most affected by the nursing shortage. Reasons cited for this shortage include ineffective nursing orientation programs and a decline in job satisfaction. The purpose of this project was to develop a best practice succession planning educational program to provide novice operating room nurses with an introduction to the operating room. The Dreyfus model of skills acquisition and Benner's novice to expert theory guided this project. A 2-step process was used to assess and validate the content and quality of the educational program. In Phase 1, the educational program was distributed to 10 operating room nurse stakeholders for formative review. There was agreement from these reviewers that the educational program covered key concepts important for novice operating room nurses. Two recommendations were made for additional clarification. In Phase II, the educational program was revised and distributed to a group of 10 perioperative professionals for summative review using the AGREE II instrument. The summative review group found the educational program to be clear and concise. The overall summative approval of 100% and recommendations of both review groups guided the final development of the best practice educational module. This best practice educational module will provide a standardized program for educating novice operating room nurses. This project will contribute to positive social change by empowering these nurses while supporting safe care for all surgical patients. Dissemination will occur first within the organization and then to local and national organizations targeting operating room nurses.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter describes the planning, implementation, and evaluation of non-technical skills simulations in an operating room (OR) nursing program in Norway. Three scenarios of preoperative preparations in the OR were simulated, each of which was followed by facilitated debriefing sessions. These sessions consisted of three phases: description, analysis, and application. To achieve the highest standard of care and ensure patient safety in the OR, it is necessary for Norwegian OR nurses to be proficient in the responsibilities and functions of both circulating and scrub nurse roles, including teamwork and non-technical skills. With respect to the three domains of educational purpose—qualification, socialization, and subjectification—the simulation activities aimed to enhance knowledge, ability, and understanding of non-technical skills in the OR, thus socializing the students to their new profession while also encouraging their independence. The Norwegian adaptation of the Scrub Practitioners’ List of Intraoperative Non-Technical Skills (SPLINTS-no) behavioral rating tool was used by the students for reflection and learning throughout the teaching activities. The majority of participants agreed or fully agreed that the three phases of debriefing were helpful for their learning. Simulation of non-technical skills in the preoperative OR can therefore be a valuable learning experience for OR nursing students, through the use of both low- and high-fidelity simulations in partnership with nurse anesthetist students.

Abstract:
Preoperative evaluation and optimization of medical status of patients are important components of anesthesia practice. Increasing numbers of patients with serious comorbidities undergo procedures that require anesthesia services outside of the operating room (OOOR). Often the location alters the challenges of caring for these patients. Surgical, anesthesia, or nursing personnel who can assist with airway and resuscitation management may not be available; equipment and medications may be limited. Many OOOR locations will not have the usual support of an intensive care unit (ICU), skilled postanesthesia recovery personnel, respiratory therapy, or ready access to an inpatient bed, blood banking, interventional cardiology, or diagnostic services. Many of the patients are elderly, ill, and even unlikely candidates for conventional surgery (e.g., transmucosal resection of gastric tumors, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts). Yet patients and/or providers may be reluctant to expend time and energy in extensive preoperative evaluation before a seemingly minor procedure. This chapter will outline the basics of preprocedure preparation of patients scheduled to receive anesthesia in OOOR settings.

Abstract:
Introduction: The measures of social isolation and campaigns to combat the COVID-19 pandemic released after March 2020 and the risk of severe respiratory disease in the population older than 65 years determined a decrease in the performance of preventive tests and demand to outpatient clinics, as well as the removal of professionals in risk groups reducing the supply of care. The delay in diagnosis and initiation of treatment is considered a problem in health systems worldwide, directly impacting mortality from the disease. In force since 2012, Lawn. 12732 of the Brazilian Department of Health establishes that the first cancer treatment for SUS (Brazilian Unified Health System) patients must begin within a maximum of 60 days from the signature of the pathological report that confirms malignant neoplasia. Objectives: To evaluate the effects of the pandemic in a mastology service at a tertiary hospital of the Unified Health System (SUS) from the measurement of the interval between diagnosis and initiation of treatment, first proposed oncological, surgical (CT) or systemic (TS) treatment and the justifications pointed out when the beginning of treatment occurred in a period of more than sixty days. Methods: Cross-sectional cohort study of patients diagnosed with breast cancer between March 2019 and January 2021, divided into two groups – prepandemic and pandemic from the evaluation of data in the hospital management system (Stratec) and comparison of information between the two groups. Results: In group 1, prepandemic, from March 2019 to March 2020, 82 patients admitted, mean of 6.3 patients per month, 62 started treatment before 60 days (59TC and 3TS) and 20 after (13TC and 7TS). In group 2, pandemic, from April 2020 to January 2021, 65 patients, mean of 7.2 patients per month, 51 started treatment before 60 days (37TC and 14TS) and 14 after (11TC and 3TS), 32.3 and 27.5%, respectively. Regarding the indication of initial treatment, surgical treatment predominated in both groups, however there was an increase in the indication of systemic treatment in group 2 (17/65 vs 10/82). Among the main justifications for delay in the beginning of treatment, we identified clinical conditions of the patients, the need for a plastic surgery team and unavailability of a vacancy in the operating room in the first group, and clinical conditions of the patients and indecision to accept the therapeutic proposal in the second group. Conclusions: The reception by the nursing team to the patients at the time of diagnosis guiding the performance of preoperative examinations and consultations, availability of the operating room exclusively for emergencies, cardiac or oncological surgeries and replacement of professionals when the absence was necessary were effective measures in the maintenance of care and quality of service.

Abstract:
As a result of the Bologna Process, European countries have been operating common basic requirements for nursing education (NE) programmes for several years. In 2021, reforms have also taken place in Latvia to ensure the effective development of professionals within higher education, who would become autonomous medical staff with a bachelor (Bch) education. Despite the different approaches of each European Union (EU) Member State to implementation of NE programmes, the unifying element is a scope of clinical training, which under EU legislation is at least half of the total scope of study programme. According to the research, these essential requirements have had a positive impact on the development of NE across Europe. Latvian higher education institutions (HEIs) have taken over the positive experience of Europe and have aligned the scope of clinical training with the requirements of regulatory enactments. A HEI has the right to organise clinical training at its discretion, thereby creating an unequal scope of this training in certain parts of the study programme. Some HEIs implement this process as internships, while others integrate it into study courses, supplementing the theoretical knowledge and practical skills acquired in simulation rooms with the acquisition of competencies in the clinical environment (CE). However, despite the organizational differences, the unifying element of these programmes remains the total scope of studies in the CE. The NE programmes in Europe also differ in the use of the term for clinical training. Notwithstanding the designation of this peculiar study form, it is always implemented in a CE. The presented research aims to look at the essence of clinical studies and the usability of the corresponding terms in a framework of study process in a CE, as well as to analyse the differences in the scope of this study form in Bch programmes in nursing in Latvia and Europe. The document analysis method, examining 17 research papers for their compliance with international regulatory enactments, shows that clinical training, nothwithstanding different terminology, is a key component of NE in a high-quality CE. The comparison of Bch’s level nursing studies (NS) at Vilnius University (Lithuania), Riga Stradiņš University (Latvia), Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences (Germany), University of Barcelona (Spain), and Daugavpils University (Latvia) indicates that they generally comply with internationally recognized requirements for the acquisition of the nursing profession.
