The purpose of this study is to identify the predictor factors for using the prone position for patients hospitalized in intensive care units with COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome. Methods & Materials: A Cross-sectional study was carried out, including adult patients with COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome hospitalized in intensive care units of four hospitals in Colombia. A multiple logistic regression model was constructed in which the main outcome was the prone position in intensive care, and the independent variables included sociodemographic characteristics, history, health status, progress, and treatment. Results: A total of 473 patients were included in this study; 59.8% (n=283) received prone position therapy within 24-96 hours of hospitalization in intensive care. Out of the total of eligible variables in the logistics-regression model, factors in favor of the prone position were PCR>10mg/L (OR=3.33), private healthcare network (OR=1.99), hypertension (OR=1,76), cough or dyspnea symptoms at intensive care admission (OR=2.69 and OR=1.91), oxygen saturation <90% (OR=1.84). Factors against the prone position were heart disease (OR=0.34), FiO2>50% (OR=0.32), and TP>13 seconds (OR=0.53). Conclusion: Patients with COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome with a higher probability of prone position in intensive care were those with PCR>10mg/L, cough, dyspnea, and private healthcare network. The predictors identified in this study could help standardize the prone position therapy.","PeriodicalId":36883,"journal":{"name":"Nursing Practice Today","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139260242","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}

The constant management of blood glucose levels can be burdensome, further deteriorating patients' quality of life. This study aims to determine the effect of transitional nursing care on the quality of life among adults with type 2 diabetes. Methods & Materials: We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to determine the effectiveness of transitional nursing care on the quality of life of adults with type 2 diabetes. We searched for published Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) on PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Library. The process of study selection spanned from March 2023 to April 2023. Data synthesis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 to generate pooled effect size estimates. Results: A total of six studies were included in our analysis. Our results showed that transitional care significantly improved the quality of life of adults with type 2 diabetes (SMD= 0.55, 95% CI: 0.15, 0.95, Z= 2.72, p= 0.007). Compared to usual care, transitional care also significantly lowered HbA1c levels (MD= -0.39, 95% CI: -0.70, -0.07, Z= 2.41, p= 0.02). Conclusion: Our research identified that transitional nursing care significantly improved the quality of life among adults with type 2 diabetes. Nurses should take into account our positive findings when implementing this care model for these patients. We suggest that future researchers carry out more studies with a focus on transitional nursing care for patients with type 2 diabetes to investigate its impacts further.","PeriodicalId":36883,"journal":{"name":"Nursing Practice Today","volume":"26 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139260722","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}

Our study investigated how nurse managers interpret and understand professionalism in the Slovak sociocultural context. Methods & Materials: This qualitative study adopted an interpretive design. The sample consisted of seven nurse managers working in the selected university hospital in Slovakia. Data were collected between November and December 2021 using semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Results: The reflexive thematic analysis resulted in developing six key themes specified in twenty-one sub-themes: Developing and maintaining professionalism; Challenges and problems of professionalism in nursing; Teamwork; Violation of professionalism; Requirements to become a nurse professional; Social status of nurses. These themes represent the perception of nurse managers of professionalism as a complex phenomenon grounded in the background and attitudes of nurses, socialization, quality of teamwork, profession requirements wrestling with the shortage of nurses, dominance of medicine, and lack of respect for the profession of nurses. Conclusion: Together with other healthcare managers, nurse managers should continuously support and guide novice nurses and nursing students, share knowledge and skills, overcome stereotypes, support teamwork through strengthening nurse-patient collaboration or building collegian relationships, and improve the social status and recognition of nurses in society.","PeriodicalId":36883,"journal":{"name":"Nursing Practice Today","volume":"119 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139260591","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}

This study aimed to determine the level of teamwork and the factors that influence the level of teamwork in selected hospitals in the Slovak Republic. Methods & Materials: The descriptive cross-sectional study included 207 nurses from 12 departments of three district hospitals in the Slovak Republic. Data were collected between November 2022 and February 2023 using a questionnaire that evaluated nursing teamwork, the Nursing Teamwork Survey. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Nurses evaluated the level of teamwork as (3.74± 0.64), which means ideal less than 75% of the time during the last working shift. The best-rated subscale was the Shared mental model (4.17± 0.49), while the worst-rated subscale was Team orientation (2.47± 0.85). Differences in teamwork level were found based on unit type, education, number of hours worked, number of overtime hours, and perceived staff adequacy (p≤ 0.05). The correlation analysis revealed associations between teamwork and job satisfaction, teamwork satisfaction, subjective quality evaluation, and patient safety, as well as with the number of patients in the last shift, including the number of admitted and discharged patients. Conclusion: By regularly determining teamwork levels, it is possible to identify the strengths and weaknesses of nursing teams. Analyzing team weaknesses and implementing targeted measures can lead to strengthening teamwork and improving team functioning.","PeriodicalId":36883,"journal":{"name":"Nursing Practice Today","volume":"5 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139260380","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}

Understanding breaches can reduce risk of disease transmission to staff and communities when contextualized to the infectious disease, environment, and situation. At a large-scale Australian COVID-19 quarantine facility, this study examined the core personal protective equipment and infection prevention breaches new quarantine workers identified during their site orientation to inform future breach training. Methods & Materials: Through the application of a qualitative approach, the project implemented a descriptive thematic analysis to identify the different types of breaches staff presented. An additional summative content analysis method was applied to determine if the breaches staff identified were breaching and if the risk level staff allocated to the breach was mapped to the risk of disease transmission. Data were collected from 30 orientation sessions and included 603 breach risk responses for analysis. Results: There were five core breach areas identified: donning and doffing of personal protective equipment, failure of personal protective equipment or lack of equipment, environmental factors, staff behaviors, and resident behaviors. The breach allocations by staff demonstrated knowledge deficits across health and non-health staff in disease transmission, particularly in the actual level of the risk for transmission. Conclusion: Breaches awareness in relation to types, mitigation and reporting should be a routine part of infection prevention training. The five areas of breaches present an adaptable foundation to base infection prevention breach training for any health facility. When contextualised to the communicable disease, environment and situation, understanding breaches can reduce the risk of disease transmission to staff and communities.","PeriodicalId":36883,"journal":{"name":"Nursing Practice Today","volume":"25 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139261083","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}
