Abstract
Abstract: BACKGROUND: The nursing care plan (NCP) was developed approximately 100 years ago as a teaching tool for nursing students. Our neuroscience intensive care unit (NSICU) uses a multidisciplinary rounding plan (MDRP) that may provide more relevant and up-to-date information than the standard NCP. METHODS: In this prospective single-blind randomized pilot study, we examined nurses' abilities to respond to 7 clinical scenarios common to the NSICU. The NCPs and MDRPs from 70 patients were randomly assigned to 14 nurses (10 per nurse) who answered each of the 7 questions using only data from an NCP or data from an MDR. RESULTS: The MDRP mean score of 4.51 (1.50) correct answers was statistically significantly higher than the NCP mean score of 0.31 (0.71) correct answer (P < .0001). CONCLUSION: The MDRP was designed to address the modern-day communication needs of NSICU staff by leveraging technological advances. Data from this study suggest that the MDRP may have advantages over the NCP in providing contextually relevant information. Additional research is warranted to develop the MDRP as a replacement for the NCP in the NSICU setting.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Neuroscience Nursing (JNN), the official journal of the American Association of Neuroscience Nurses, contains original articles on advances in neurosurgical and neurological techniques as they affect nursing care, theory and research, as well as commentary on the roles of the neuroscience nurse in the health care team.
The journal provides information to nurses and health care professionals working in diverse areas of neuroscience patient care such as multi-specialty and neuroscience intensive care units, general neuroscience units, combination units (neuro/ortho, neuromuscular/rehabilitation, neuropsychiatry, neurogerontology), rehabilitation units, medical-surgical units, pediatric units, emergency and trauma departments, and surgery. The information is applicable to professionals working in clinical, research, administrative, and educational settings.
