Both adult and pediatric literature have noted the significance of detecting and treating PICU delirium. Delirium lengthens hospital stays, the duration of mechanical ventilation, and the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and PICU morbidity. Method: The goal of this study was to use a brief questionnaire to assess pediatric critical care nurses’ current understanding of delirium and its risk factors. Assuming that PICU nurses lack the necessary information to accurately screen for and diagnose delirium in critically ill children before a focused nursing educational intervention. To gauge current understanding regarding delirium in children, a 10-bed PICU distributed a 16-question online survey to all PICU nurses.Results: The response rate was 84% (26/31). Lack of knowledge was found that only two staff nurses (2/26; 8%) who properly responded when asked whether administering benzodiazepines is beneficial in treating delirium when asked about the use of these drugs to treat the condition. In addition, a family history of dementia predisposes a patient to delirium was another question that some participants correctly answered (4/26; 15%). Lastly, common incorrect answers when using the Glascoma Scale (GCS) as a diagnostic tool to identify delirium in pediatric patients, some staff nurses frequently give the incorrect response that delirium always manifests as a hyperactive, confused state, and those pediatric patients typically do not remember being delirious (5/26; 19%). Conclusion: The survey’s findings revealed knowledge gaps about the causes, symptoms, and treatments of pediatric delirium in critically ill children. Before the unit-wide adoption of a delirium screening and prevention program, PICU staff members urgently need to receive nursing education concerning pediatric delirium and associated risk factors, particularly regarding screening procedures and pharmacologic risk factors.","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135318433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Peer mentoring refers to a network of support in which a more skilled or experienced person serves as a role model for a less skilled person for professional development and personal growth. Peer mentoring provides a support system that encourages self-confidence and increases self-worth for both the mentee and the mentor. The undergraduate student peer mentoring program in a large, Southeastern United States, university-based, 4-year school of nursing was created in response to a desire for more support conveyed by upper-level nursing students.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A model was developed whereby each incoming nursing student (Semester 1) would be paired with a senior nursing student (Semesters 3, 4, or 5). This mentoring dyad was then assigned to a faculty mentor who ensured that the mentoring relationship was functioning in accordance with established guidelines and provided support to both the student mentee and the student mentor.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The first cohort was comprised of 20 mentoring dyads. Subsequent cohorts have ranged from 20 to 45 mentoring dyads. To date, over 300 nursing students have participated in the undergraduate peer mentoring program. Based on feedback from student evaluation surveys, both mentors and mentees appreciate and find value in the program. Approximately 93% of student mentors indicated that they would have appreciated such a program when they were first semester nursing students.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Some of the challenges of navigating nursing programs are not related to lack of academic aptitude. Rather, other challenges, including lack of social support and soft skills needed to successfully complete the first and second semesters of nursing school.

Objective: The objective of the study was to assess the barriers and facilitators, women health professionals face, when accessing the cervical cancer screening services. Research Method : This is a descriptive, cross-sectional , mixed method study. The participants of the study were female nurses from selected tertiary level hospital from Tamilnadu, India. For quantitative method, standardized validated tool was used with author’s permission. The participants participated were 125 in number. Qualitative interviews were conducted. Results: The result showed that the common perception about the pap-smear procedure was being uncomfortable, anxiety provoking and painful as expressed by (35.2%, 33.6 and 33.6%) respectively. This overall poor attitude and carelessness of the female nurses may greatly hamper the screening program. Major barriers for cervical cancer screening among the nurses were found to be as follows: 31.2% said Taking off Clothes for the screening procedure is considered as a barrier, 20% said they do not prefer the presence of male staff during the procedure and 20% said its time consuming. Conclusion: To conclude, if health care providers lack health awareness, they cannot motivate their patients to do the same. Thus, the initial step in breast and cervical cancer screening is health care providers should focus of their own health.","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87024308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
