Abstract

Background: Nursing care is holistic, and missing any aspect of care can be critical to patients' health. However, due to the complex and intense nature of the nursing practice, nurses have to unintentionally prioritize some activities, forcing them to omit some aspects of nursing care.

Aim: To explore the dimensions of missed nursing care and its predictors within the Saudi Arabian healthcare system.

Methods: Quantitative, cross-sectional study used the MISSCARE survey by utilizing nonprobability convenience sampling to collect the data of 604 staff nurses working in inpatient wards in Jazan, Saudi Arabia.

Results: The overall mean of missed nursing care is (m = 1.37, SD = 0.45). Missed nursing care activities were mostly failure to attend interdisciplinary care conferences (m = 1.66, SD = 0.96) and patient ambulation thrice a day (m = 1.63, SD = 0.97). Missed nursing care was mainly caused by human resource shortage (m = 3.53, SD = 0.88). Missed nursing care is predicted by the turnover intention (B = 2.380, t = 3.829, p < 001) and job satisfaction (B = -0.864, t = -4.788, p < 001).

Conclusion: Although missed nursing care is evident in Saudi Arabia, it is significantly lower than the international rates, and it is mainly caused by labor resource shortage which directly influences nurses' job satisfaction and intention to leave. Optimizing the recruitment process, resource allocation and effective nurses' retention programs are proposed solutions that may be beneficial to mitigate missed nursing care.

概述错过护理及其预测因素在沙特阿拉伯:一项横断面研究。

背景:护理是整体的，缺少任何方面的护理都可能对患者的健康至关重要。然而，由于护理实践的复杂性和强度，护士不得不在无意中优先考虑一些活动，迫使他们忽略了护理的某些方面。目的:探讨维度错过护理及其预测因素在沙特阿拉伯医疗保健系统。方法:采用MISSCARE问卷调查，采用非概率方便抽样的方法，对沙特阿拉伯吉赞市604名住院护士进行定量、横断面研究。结果:护理遗漏的总体平均值为(m = 1.37, SD = 0.45)。错过的护理活动主要为未参加跨学科护理会议(m = 1.66, SD = 0.96)和患者每天3次下床(m = 1.63, SD = 0.97)。缺失护理的主要原因是人力资源短缺(m = 3.53, SD = 0.88)。离职意向(B = 2.380, t = 3.829, p < 001)和工作满意度(B = -0.864, t = -4.788, p < 001)预测护理缺失。结论:沙特阿拉伯的护理缺勤率虽然明显，但明显低于国际水平，主要是劳动力资源短缺造成的，这直接影响了护士的工作满意度和离职意愿。优化招聘流程，资源分配和有效的护士保留计划是提出的解决方案，可能有利于减少护理遗漏。
