The Quality in Acute Stroke Care Europe Study achieved significant large-scale translation of nurse-initiated protocols to manage Fever, hyperglycemia (Sugar), and Swallowing (FeSS) in 64 hospitals across 17 European countries. However, not all hospitals had stroke units. Our study aimed to compare FeSS protocol adherence in stroke unit versus non–stroke-unit hospitals. METHODS: An observational study using Quality in Acute Stroke Care Europe Study postimplementation data was undertaken. Hospitals were categorized using 4 evidence-based characteristics for defining a stroke unit, collected from an organizational survey of participating hospitals. Differences in FeSS Protocol adherence between stroke unit and non–stroke-unit hospitals were investigated using mixed-effects logistic regression, adjusting for age, sex, and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale. RESULTS: Of the 56 hospitals from 16 countries providing organizational data, 34 (61%) met all 4 stroke unit characteristics, contributing data for 1825 of 2871 patients (64%) (stroke unit hospitals). Of the remaining 22 hospitals (39%), 17 (77%) met 3 of the 4 stroke unit characteristics (non–stroke-unit hospitals). There were no differences between hospitals with a stroke unit and those without for postimplementation adherence to fever (49% stroke unit vs 57% non–stroke unit; odds ratio [OR], 0.400; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.087-1.844; P = .240), hyperglycemia (50% stroke unit vs 57% non–stroke unit; OR, 0.403; 95% CI, 0.087-1.856; P = .243), swallowing (75% stroke unit vs 60% non–stroke unit; OR, 1.702; 95% CI, 0.643-4.502; P = .284), or overall FeSS Protocol adherence (36% stroke unit vs 36% non–stroke unit; OR, 0.466; 95% CI, 0.106-2.043; P = .311). CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate that the nurse-initiated FeSS Protocols can be implemented by hospitals regardless of stroke unit status. This is noteworthy because hospitals without stroke unit resources that care for acute stroke patients can potentially implement these protocols. Further effort is needed to ensure better adherence to the FeSS Protocols.","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"41 29","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138588433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Resilience of Patients With Brain Tumor While Awaiting Surgery","authors":"Supawadee Maneekrong, T. Tankumpuan, Suporn Danaidutsadeekul, R. Siwanuwatn","doi":"10.1097/jnn.0000000000000739","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1097/jnn.0000000000000739","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 \u0000 BACKGROUND: Resilience is the ability of patients to adapt effectively when given a diagnosis of an illness. While awaiting brain tumor surgery, patients often experience uncertainty from brain tumor–related symptoms resulting in inducing depressive symptoms, having physical disability, and reducing quality of life. Resilience studies have been widely conducted in the postoperative phase with a limited knowledge on the preoperative phase. This study aimed to identify predictors of resilience while awaiting brain tumor surgery. METHODS: This cross-sectional predictive study includes 100 participants 18 years and older, with diagnosis of brain tumors, and waiting for brain tumor surgery at the outpatient department of 1 tertiary hospital in Bangkok between August 2022 and February 2023. Multiple linear regression was used to examine the predictors of resilience. RESULTS: Most of the sample (77%) were female with a mean age of 52.71 (13.17) years. The most common type of brain tumor was meningioma (38%). The median waiting time since brain tumor diagnosis until the date of preadmission for operation was 18 (3-1464) days. Symptom severity, social support, and treatment plan were able to explain 37.3% of the variance of resilience in patients awaiting brain tumor surgery (F = 19.077, P < .01, R\u0000 2 = 0.373, adjusted R\u0000 2 = 0.354). CONCLUSION: Resilience is an important skill for patients with brain tumor to manage uncertainty events that occur in their lives. The preoperation phase needs to assess both physical and mental tumor-related symptoms, and include caregivers as part of the care, to promote resilience skill for patients awaiting brain tumor surgery.","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"5 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138586299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although it is considered a safe and feasible aspect of patient care, mobilization is often missed in this population because of negative healthcare provider perceptions regarding barriers and patient safety. Nurse-led teamwork has been suggested to overcome these barriers and to achieve earlier mobilization for patients, as well as positive provider perceptions, which may affect the culture and frequency of mobilization on neurointensive care units. Quantitative studies analyzing multidisciplinary teamwork perceptions to mobilize ventilated neurosurgery patients with or without a nurse-led protocol have not been previously conducted. Analyzing such perceptions may provide insight to team-related barriers related to missed mobility. This pilot quasi-experimental study aimed to determine whether the use of a nurse-led mobility protocol affects teamwork perceptions when mobilizing ventilated neurosurgery patients. METHODS: A sample of multidisciplinary teams, composed of nurses, patient care technicians, and respiratory therapists, mobilized ventilated neurosurgery patients according to either standard of care (for the control group) or a nurse-led mobility protocol (for the interventional group). Teamwork perceptions were measured via the reliable and valid Nursing Teamwork Survey tool. RESULTS: Linear mixed model analyses revealed that multidisciplinary teams in the nurse-led mobility protocol group had significantly higher levels of overall perceived teamwork than those in the control group, t3 = -3.296, P = .038. Such differences were also noted for teamwork variables of team leadership and mutual trust. CONCLUSION: Nurse-led mobility protocols should be considered to increase teamwork when performing multidisciplinary teamwork-based mobility for ventilated neurosurgery patients. Future studies should continue to evaluate teamwork perceptions after nurse-led mobility.</p>","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"199-204"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10056266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, to date, no study has systematically reviewed the prevalence of PSF at different points in time after stroke. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of PSF and its impact on ADLs and HRQoL in the first 6 months post stroke. METHOD: CINAHL, MEDLINE, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Index to Theses were searched from 1983 to August 2022 for studies published in English. Studies were included if they were conducted on adults 18 years and older, and were observational, correlational, and quantitative components of mixed methods reporting on PSF, ADLs, and HRQoL post stroke. RESULTS: Thirty studies were included in this review, and all had a high methodological quality. The pooled prevalence of PSF at 1 to 6 weeks was 49.5%; at 3 months, it was 41.9%; and at 6 months, it was 43.4%. A negative correlation between PSF and ADLs was observed at 1, 2, and 4 to 6 weeks, and at 3 and 6 months post stroke. A significant negative correlation between PSF and HRQoL was observed within the first week ( r = -0.40, P < .05) and at 3 and 6 months post stroke.

Shared decision making (SDM), whereby patients and health professionals, primarily nurses, collaborate in making decisions, reduces this decisional conflict. It requires understanding large amounts of information and may be complex, especially when decisions affect patients' autonomy and quality and prolongation of life. Patient decision aids are tools in facilitating SDM. This study aimed to identify the key elements from the perspective of patients with relapsing-remitting MS to create a patient decision aid in the Spanish sociocultural context. METHODS: This is a qualitative study using focus groups led by a clinical nurse specialist. Semistructured interviews included healthcare needs and demands, the SDM process, and general characteristics of a peer support program. After the transcription of interview recordings, data were analyzed by thematic analysis and a constructivist naturalistic approach. RESULTS: Patients with MS (27) from Spain participated in 4 focus groups of 90 to 120 minutes each. Three overarching themes were identified: information access to sufficient high-quality data; knowledge of available treatment options, including efficacy, adverse effects, frequency, administration route, and the impact on daily life; decision-making role, engaged versus nonengaged patients. The former require support in facilitating their active involvement in decisions, whereas the latter prefer more passive health models. CONCLUSION: The needs identified by patients with relapsing-remitting MS regarding treatment choice in the Spanish setting align with those reported by other studies. The identified themes provide valuable information to design and develop a virtual patient decision aid jointly by clinical MS nurses and patients according to the International Patient Decision Aid Standards Collaboration criteria.
