Outcomes included knowledge, EWS protocol compliance, and care escalation for patients with an EWS score ≥5 to prevent further deterioration.Interventions: A mandatory educational program was implemented with Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles to test and refine practice changes.Results: Nurses' knowledge improved significantly post-education (P < .001). EWS protocol compliance and care escalation increased.Conclusions: EWS education improved nurses' compliance with protocols and escalation of care, supporting early recognition of clinical deterioration and prevention of serious adverse events.","PeriodicalId":16931,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nursing care quality","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149136812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The primary outcome was PIVC functionality.Results: A total of 1796 encounters were analyzed (898 per cohort). Mean age was 64.8 years; 59.4% were female and 40.7% were Black.

Of 178 records screened, 10 studies met the inclusion criteria. Methodological quality was appraised using the Quality Improvement Minimum Quality Criteria Set.Results: Interventions were clustered into 4 categories: turn teams, documentation enhancements, protocol strategies, and interdisciplinary collaborations.Conclusion: HAPI prevention requires coordinated, system-level, interprofessional interventions with engaged leadership, and future research should emphasize sustainability, scalability, and fidelity using standardized quality improvement reporting frameworks.","PeriodicalId":16931,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nursing care quality","volume":" ","pages":"314-320"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147504313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
