We sought to summarize existing knowledge and identify gaps in research linked to the cultural challenges encountered by nurses when caring for patients from different cultures. Design: A scoping review. Methods: Informed by PRISMA-ScR guidelines, we searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, EBSCO Host, Web of Science, and Google Scholar using relevant MeSH keywords for articles published from 2010–2020. We then used a 3-step data screening and extraction process to manage retrieved articles. Results: Initially 80 studies were identified, six of which met inclusion criteria. Thematic analysis yielded five themes: lack of cultural knowledge, language barriers, micro-racism, lack of time to attend training and provide culturally competent care, and recommendations to improve care delivery. Conclusion: Nurses should be proactive and advocate for the necessary education and training to provide culturally competent care so critical to providing high-quality healthcare. More research, interventional and effectiveness in particular, is needed to address common challenges such as micro-racism and to facilitate the World Health Organization and National Academy of Medicine recommendations directed at providing culturally appropriate care to promote health equity.","PeriodicalId":38129,"journal":{"name":"Central European Journal of Nursing and Midwifery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42545456","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}

Frequencies and percentages were used to present demographic characteristics; means and standard deviations were used to present continuous variables. An independent sample t-test, Pearson correlation, and linear regression analysis were conducted to test the nature of the relationship between study variables. Results: The results indicated a slightly moderate mean percentage score for toxic leadership and a slightly high mean percentage score for nurse followership effectiveness. In addition, there was a significant negative weak correlation between toxic leadership and nurse followership effectiveness. Conclusion: Training programs should be designed for leaders and followers to develop self-insight / awareness, maintain self-control and accountability, and advance followership skills.

The online data collection form had two parts: a sociodemographic form and a second part including 25 items on institutional protective measures, personal protective measures, and nursing care. Results: Most of the nurses caring for patients with Covid-19 were well-informed about institutional, personal, and patient protective precautions. The scores of female nurses, married nurses and those with children were higher. Multiple regression analysis revealed that in-service training, working in a clinic, and having colleagues diagnosed with Covid-19 positively affected knowledge, while having 0–5 years of professional experience negatively affected knowledge.

The sample contained 47 graduating nursing students. The statistical analysis methods were used. Results: Only 48.9% (n = 23) of the students scored an accepted level of knowledge in the nursing of a patient with ACS, and a little over half (51.1%; n = 24) failed the ACS test. Graduating nursing students’ self-assessed nurse competence was at a good level (69.7; VAS 0–100). No statistically significant differences in nurse competence assessments occurred between students who passed the ACS test and those who failed it. Conclusion: While graduating nursing students have a good level of nursing competence, their knowledge in the nursing of a patient with ACS was poor. It is important to emphasize the nursing of a patient with ACS in nursing education and to pay especially close attention to interpreting the patient’s electrocardiogram findings.","PeriodicalId":38129,"journal":{"name":"Central European Journal of Nursing and Midwifery","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67143312","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}

Design: This study uses a quantitative analytical observational design. Methods: In total, 151 critically ill patients out of 159 with indicated intra-hospital transportation participated in the study. Patients were transported from the emergency room to the intensive care unit in a class A general hospital in Central Java, Indonesia. The statistical analysis included descriptions of demographic, medication, monitoring, equipment, and clinical characteristics of the cohort, and identified risk factors for adverse events during transportation by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results: The overall incidence of adverse events was 78.8%. Risk factors were: transport team, hemodynamic monitoring, equipment preparation, and patient’s condition, and were associated with adverse events (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that equipment preparation was the factor most contributing to adverse events with Exp(B) = 22.6.

Traumatic experiences during childbirth can cause postpartum stress in some women. The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between postpartum stress disorder in different types of delivery (normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section) and maternal anxiety. Design: This was a cross-sectional study. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 714 pregnant mothers selected via cluster sampling six-eight weeks after their delivery in selected health centers. The data were collected using Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Symptom Scale I and the Spielberger State - Trait Anxiety Inventory . The data were then entered into the SPSS 20 software and were analyzed using a chi-square test. The significance level was set as p < 0.05. Results: The results showed that most of the participants in the two groups had medium to low anxiety levels, and the two groups were homogeneous in this regard. However, the mean scores of obvious anxiety (p < 0.0001) and hidden anxiety (p < 0.0001) were significantly higher in the normal vaginal delivery group compared to the cesarean section group. Moreover, post-traumatic stress score was significantly correlated to both obvious anxiety and hidden anxiety in the two study groups. Conclusion: Postpartum stress disorder had a positive relationship with obvious anxiety and hidden anxiety in both study groups.
