To date, there is no study regarding OS of emergency care pediatric nurses working in Greece. This study aimed to examine the pediatric nurses' OS working in tertiary public hospitals in Greece. In this cross-sectional study, a total of 104 pediatric nurses were recruited randomly from summer 2020 to summer 2021. The Expanded Nursing Stress Scale (ENSS), which consists of 59 items grouped into nine categories, was used to assess nurses OS. The overall OS mean score was 141.04 (SD = 33.48), indicating mild stress. Among nine categories, pediatric nurses were more stressed about patients and families (mean = 22.83, SD = 5.71), as well as death and dying (mean = 19.33, SD = 5.22), whereas they were less stressed about discrimination (mean = 4.21, SD = 4.09) and problems with peer support (mean = 12.11, SD = 4.58). Sex, age, and shifts did not correlate with OS. Borderline correlation was present between age and inadequate emotional preparation for less experienced nurses (p = 0.047), while higher educated pediatric nurses were more stressed because of workload than lower educated pediatric nurses (p = 0.044). Greek pediatric nurses suffered mild OS during the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a great need for further research and implementation of supportive sustainable programs aimed to the minimization of OS and the optimization of health care provided during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.","PeriodicalId":45446,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal","volume":"46 1","pages":"82-89"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139571706","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 Canadian Computed Tomography Head Rule (CCHR) is a validated tool to guide ED providers in determining the need for emergent CT of mTBI patients. The purpose of this project was to reduce radiation exposure and ED length of stay by using the CCHR to decrease unnecessary CT scans in adults with TBI. Cost of care was also estimated. The CCHR implementation strategy included an education program for ED staff. The use of the CCHR was promoted throughout the intervention period. The outcomes measured were the number of CT scans ordered, ED length of stay, and the cost of avoidable CT scans. Data were collected through medical record reviews completed by the project leader and were evaluated using the independent samples t test. A total of 600 medical records were reviewed. There was a significant difference between adherence to the CCHR before (M = 64.6%) and after provider education (M = 74.3%). The percentage of CT scans that could have been avoided significantly decreased from baseline (M = 0.63) after provider education (M = 0.46). Length of stay for mTBI patients who were managed based on the CCHR (M = 184.9) was significantly less than the length of stay for those who were not (M = 260.1). The cost of avoidable scans was decreased by 37% over the course of the project. There were no incidents of missed diagnosis found. By increasing awareness of the CCHR and promoting its use, the number of head CT scans ordered, cost of care, and ED length of stay for patients who present after mTBI were significantly improved.","PeriodicalId":45446,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal","volume":"45 4","pages":"327-340"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"54231523","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}

Over the last several years, investigations into the use of medications via the nebulization route have greatly increased, with varying degrees of efficacy identified. This route has multiple theoretical advantages. Medications affecting bronchopulmonary function or secretions can be administered directly to the site of action, possibly utilizing a lower dose and hence minimizing side effects. It is also possible to have a faster onset of action compared with other routes, given the enhanced surface area for absorption. One group of medications that has been explored via this route of administration, and is frequently administered in EDs across the nation, is opioids, most notably fentanyl, hydromorphone, and morphine. However multiple questions exist regarding the implementation of these therapies via this route, including efficacy, dosing, and the functional aspects of medication administration that are more complex than that of more traditional routes. The intent of this review is to explore the supporting literature behind the use of nebulized opioids, most specifically fentanyl, hydromorphone, and morphine, in the ED for the treatment of acute pain presentations and provide the most up-to-date guidance for practitioners.","PeriodicalId":45446,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal","volume":"45 4","pages":"260-269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"54231540","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}

PI monitoring and treatment are often overlooked in the emergency department (ED). Emergency care professionals must be proactive about PI early identification and prevention strategies. A team at a Level 1 trauma center recognized the need for ED-friendly documentation and a validated ED skin risk assessment instrument. The Bjorklund 25-item ED Skin/Risk Assessment Tool was selected. However, because the tool was not fully validated, permission to validate/use was obtained from the author. The purpose of this research study was to determine the content validity of the Bjorklund Tool. Using a prospective survey design, content experts were recruited from wound, quality, and ED and participated in two rounds of content validation. The experts reviewed the Tool for relevance, clarity, and appropriateness for the ED population. Item-level content validity index (I-CVI) and scale-level CVI (S-CVI) were calculated, with 0.78 and 0.90 as the lower limits of acceptability for individual items and the overall scale, respectively. Of the first round I-CVI ratings, 24 of 75 were below 0.78, including 14 for relevance, four for clarity, and six for appropriateness. S-CVI was 0.7574 for relevance, 0.8809 for clarity, 0.8592 for appropriateness, and 0.8325 overall. The Bjorklund Tool was determined to be invalid in its current form. A novel tool was thus created in the second round per content experts' recommendations. After redesign and simplifying items and images, all I-CVIs rated above 0.78. S-CVI was 0.923 for relevance, 0.9743 for clarity, 0.9615 for appropriateness, and 0.9529 overall. These CVIs indicate excellent content validity of the new UCHealth ED Skin Risk Assessment Instrument. This research contributes to establishment of content validity of a skin risk assessment instrument which can be used in the unique ED setting.","PeriodicalId":45446,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal","volume":"45 4","pages":"311-320"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"54231521","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 objective of this clinical case report is to highlight the importance of this chest drain insertion complication. A 35-year-old man presented to the emergency department with a chief complaint of shortness of breath and pleuritic chest pain. Further physical examination and radiographic investigations showed a left-sided hemipneumothorax. A chest drain was inserted, but subsequently the patient developed worsening shortness of breath, desaturation, and coughed out pink frothy sputum. Repeated chest radiographic and computed tomographic thorax findings suggested RPE. A nonrebreathable mask with high-flow oxygen was given to the patient to maintain his oxygen saturation. The patient was referred to the cardiothoracic team and was admitted to the hospital. Despite conservative management in the ward, the patient underwent lung decortication. Postdecortication, the left-sided lung re-expanded well, and the patient was discharged home. This case highlighted this rare, potentially fatal complication of chest drain insertion for spontaneous pneumothorax.","PeriodicalId":45446,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal","volume":"45 4","pages":"270-274"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"54231543","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}
