Abstract

It is widely acknowledged that the quality of research is greatly improved when nurses are involved at the investigators' site. Many papers highlight the knowledge, skills and expertise required by nurses for the conduct of trials. The known skills include reliability, organization, communication, motivation, self-discipline and critical thought. The responsibilities of nurses in the conduction of research trials are wide ranging from the collection and recording of data, recruitment and screening of patients, ensuring informed consent has been gained, randomization of drugs, the follow-up of patients to development and training for staff to the required international standards. In the past, clinical research nurses have been considered as data collectors by their peers, due to the lack of knowledge of the true extent of the role of the clinical research nurse. The rise in popularity of the role and the publication of an employment brief for clinical research nurses by the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) and the UK Clinical Research Collaboration (UKCRC) publication on 'Developing the best research professionals' has readdressed this prior imbalance; recognizing in detail their role, knowledge, skills, expertise with appropriate grading and remuneration. The role of the clinical research nurse in the neuroscience setting is equally as diverse with the added requirement of a higher level of knowledge and understanding of the pathophysiology of neurological diseases and specific skills required to work in the intensive care environment. This paper will attempt to explore the role of the specialized neurosciences intensive care nurse and the relationship with high-quality neuroscience research.

神经特护护士在神经科学研究中的作用。
人们普遍认为,当护士参与调查现场时,研究的质量大大提高。许多论文强调了护士进行试验所需的知识、技能和专业知识。已知的技能包括可靠性、组织、沟通、动机、自律和批判性思维。护士在开展研究试验方面的职责很广泛,从数据的收集和记录、患者的招募和筛选、确保获得知情同意、药物的随机化、患者的随访,到开发和培训工作人员以达到所需的国际标准。在过去,由于缺乏对临床研究护士作用的真实程度的认识,临床研究护士被同行视为数据收集者。皇家护理学院(RCN)和英国临床研究合作组织(UKCRC)出版的关于“培养最好的研究专业人员”的角色和临床研究护士就业简介的普及程度的上升已经重新解决了这种先前的不平衡;详细确认他们的作用、知识、技能和专门知识,并给予适当的职级和报酬。临床研究护士在神经科学领域的角色也同样多样化,需要对神经系统疾病的病理生理学有更高水平的知识和理解,以及在重症监护环境中工作所需的特殊技能。本文将尝试探讨专业神经科学重症监护护士的角色及其与高质量神经科学研究的关系。
