The data were analyzed by the content analysis method...

AIMS: To investigate the current status of nurses' assessment of subsyndromal delirium (SSD) in the intensive care unit (ICU) and explore possible barriers to assessment. BACKGROUND: SSD is a dynamic, recognizable disorder commonly seen in the ICU that can lead to poor patient outcomes. Timely recognition and management can prevent its progression. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey design was used to collect data from ICU registered nurses in southwest China...

AIM: This mixed-methods pilot study aimed to measure the feasibility and acceptability of a psychoeducational group program and determine its impact on mental well-being.

METHODS: The sample included 19 hospital-based nurse managers. Outcomes included post-traumatic growth, resilience, insight, self-compassion, empowerment, perceived stress, burnout, and job satisfaction...

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To explore the lived experience of women who gave birth during the Covid-19 pandemic.

DESIGN: A descriptive, single-center, qualitative study METHODS: The enrollment for data collection included childbearing mothers aged 18 years and over between November 2021 and April 2022. The researchers invited them to write about their personal experiences during the isolation period of the first pandemic wave...

AIM: To examine the need for information and communication technology (ICT)-based nursing care in improving patient management during the pandemic. BACKGROUND: Maintaining traditional approaches to nursing in the ongoing coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic predisposes healthcare systems to a risk of diminished quality of care. Using ICT (real-time videoconferencing, mobile robots, and artificial intelligence) could reduce burnout and infection risks by minimizing face-to-face contact...

AIMS: The aim of this study is to reliably estimate why midwifery care is missed and to crystallize those factors that have causal links to it. BACKGROUND: Studies involving the incidences and types of missed midwifery care are sparsely described. The rationales behind these deficits in care are even less well researched. METHODS: A non-experimental, descriptive method using a Likert developed MISSCARE scale was used to measure consensus estimates made by Australian midwives...

AIM: This review aims to identify the factors influencing the transition and retention of mental health nurses during the initial years of practice, recognize gaps in the literature and propose evidence-based strategies. BACKGROUND: Mental health is a challenging specialty; recruitment, transition and retention of mental health nurses are known issues of concern. EVALUATION: The present study undertakes a scoping review to identify factors influencing the transition and retention of mental health nurses during the initial years of practice and the gaps in that research domain...

AIM: The aim of this review is to examine the effectiveness of artificial intelligence in predicting multimorbid diabetes-related complications. BACKGROUND: In diabetic patients, several complications are often present, which have a significant impact on the quality of life; therefore, it is crucial to predict the level of risk for diabetes and its complications. EVALUATION: International databases PubMed, CINAHL, MEDLINE and Scopus were searched using the terms artificial intelligence, diabetes mellitus and prediction of complications to identify studies on the effectiveness of artificial intelligence for predicting multimorbid diabetes-related complications...

AIM: The aim of the study is to discuss the changing role of patients, nurses and doctors in an era of digital health and heart failure care. BACKGROUND: With a growing demand for heart failure care and a shortage of health care professionals to meet it, digital technologies offer a potential solution to overcoming these challenges. EVALUATION: In reviewing pertinent research evidence and drawing on our collective clinical and research experiences, including the co-design and development of an autonomous remote system, DoctorME, we offer some reflections and propose some practical suggestions for nurturing truly collaborative heart failure care...

AIM(S): The study aimed to test a model that examined the relationships between authentic leadership, psychological safety, work engagement and team effectiveness and subsequent effects of team effectiveness on job turnover intentions and nurse satisfaction with quality of care. BACKGROUND: Nurse leaders who exhibit authentic leadership have been shown to contribute to the development of healthy work environments. In workplaces with demonstrated authentic leadership, nurses are more engaged and have lower job turnover intentions...
