Abstract
Background: Nursing students' practice experiences in the intensive care unit will greatly influence their acquisition of professional skills and the development of their future nursing roles.
Aim: This study aimed to determine nursing students' first clinical practice experiences in the intensive care unit.
Study design: The type of research is qualitative research. The study data were collected from 14 students who were doing clinical practice in the anaesthesia intensive care unit of a university hospital. Face-to-face individual interviews were conducted with each student. A semi-structured interview guide was used in the interviews. Data were analysed with MAXQDA Analytics Pro 2020. This study adhered to the COREQ checklist for reporting.
Results: Four main themes were reached: 'First Emotions in the Intensive Care Unit', 'Experiences Related to the Perception of Profession', 'Experiences Related to Patient Care' and 'Experiences Related to Personal Development'. It was determined that the most prominent feelings in these clinical practice experiences of the students were fear in patient care, satisfaction and professional image in professional acquisition, and making life more meaningful in their perspective on life.
Conclusions: Students evaluated the intensive care clinical practice as beneficial in terms of professional and personal development. It is recommended that an orientation program be organized for students before intensive care clinical practice.
Relevance to clinical practice: Qualified critical care nurses of the future are a product of a qualified nursing clinical education today.
背景：护生在重症监护病房的实习经历对其专业技能的习得和未来护理角色的发展有着重要的影响。目的：本研究旨在了解护生在重症监护病房的初次临床实习经历。研究设计：研究类型为定性研究。研究数据收集于14名在某大学附属医院麻醉重症监护病房进行临床实习的学生。对每个学生进行了面对面的个人访谈。访谈采用半结构化访谈指南。使用MAXQDA Analytics Pro 2020分析数据。本研究遵循COREQ清单进行报告。结果：得出了四个主要主题：“重症监护室的第一情绪”、“与职业感知相关的经验”、“与病人护理相关的经验”和“与个人发展相关的经验”。研究发现，学生在临床实践体验中最突出的感受是对病人护理的恐惧，对专业获得的满意度和专业形象，以及对生活的看法使生活更有意义。结论：学生评价重症监护临床实践在专业和个人发展方面是有益的。建议在重症监护临床实习前为学生组织一个培训项目。与临床实践的相关性：未来合格的重症护理护士是今天合格的护理临床教育的产物。
