Timely and accurate measurement of stress throughout the continuum of recovery is necessary to inform targeted interventions that will improve quality of life for this group. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to describe the utilization of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) during recovery in SS. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was conducted using CINAHL, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Scopus databases. Studies were included if they captured primary data collection using any version of the PSS at any time point in the poststroke recovery period and were published in English between 2011 and 2022. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses were excluded. Evidence was synthesized, and themes were discussed. RESULTS: Among 397 studies, a total of 13 met inclusion criteria. Of these, 8 were cross-sectional studies, 3 were longitudinal studies, 1 was a randomized controlled trial, and the remaining study was a prospective nonrandomized trial. The PSS-10 (n = 7, 54%) was the most used version of the instrument, followed by the PSS-14 (n = 3, 23%) and PSS-4 (n = 2, 15.4%), with the modified PSS-10 being used in only 1 (7.6%) study. The PSS surveys were administered at various time points, ranging from the first day of admission to 3, 6, 9, or 12 months after discharge. Perceived stress may continue to negatively influence SS's psychological and physical well-being throughout the chronic phase of recovery. CONCLUSIONS: Stress is a unique and individualized experience that influences recovery trajectories in SS, an experience often overlooked or marginalized by clinicians and healthcare providers. To help mobilize strategies to achieve long-term health and wellness goals, future studies should explore and tailor interventions to minimize the influence of stress, as identified by the PSS, on well-being and quality of life during poststroke recovery.</p>","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"55 2","pages":"65-71"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10017256","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}

Violence and aggression can take many forms, from verbal and physical abuse to sexual assault. This study aims to define agitation, violence, and aggression and to explore the prevalence of violence and aggression among neuroscience patients. This review also examines why violence and aggression occurs for neuroscience patients and to determine the effects on the patients, the environment, and the nursing staff. METHODS: A review of articles was conducted using CINAHL, PubMed, the Cochrane Database, and Google Scholar between 2012 and 2022. DISCUSSION: Agitation can escalate to violence and aggression. The reasons a neuroscience patient may become agitated are multifactorial. An injury to the brain may not cause agitation; however, the effect on the frontal lobe, hypothalamus, and hippocampus may cause a lack of self-control, impulsivity, an inability to control emotions, and an uncontrolled release of hormones, leading to a heightened sympathetic response. The effects of violence and aggression can be detrimental to the patient and include isolation, increased sedation, reduced observations, and even death. The effects on the nurse are profound including a decline in productivity at work, an increased risk of drug errors, and posttraumatic stress disorder or burnout as longer-term consequences. CONCLUSION: Violence and aggression is commonly experienced within neuroscience nursing, and the contributing factors are multifactorial. The effects for the patients and staff can be profound, and this is why prevention of agitation is fundamental to ensure the safety and retention of nursing staff.</p>","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"55 2","pages":"60-64"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10019304","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}

Our neuroscience intensive care unit (NSICU) uses a multidisciplinary rounding plan (MDRP) that may provide more relevant and up-to-date information than the standard NCP. METHODS: In this prospective single-blind randomized pilot study, we examined nurses' abilities to respond to 7 clinical scenarios common to the NSICU. The NCPs and MDRPs from 70 patients were randomly assigned to 14 nurses (10 per nurse) who answered each of the 7 questions using only data from an NCP or data from an MDR. RESULTS: The MDRP mean score of 4.51 (1.50) correct answers was statistically significantly higher than the NCP mean score of 0.31 (0.71) correct answer (P < .0001). CONCLUSION: The MDRP was designed to address the modern-day communication needs of NSICU staff by leveraging technological advances.

The objectives were to determine how prevalent violence and aggression is in neuroscience nursing and the support and education provided. METHODS: Two online surveys were developed for neuroscience RN educators and RNs through SurveyMonkey. The questionnaires were distributed through RN organizations internationally in 2021. RESULTS: Two hundred seventy-two RNs responded to the survey. Most staff felt safe at work but had experienced some type of violence or aggression, with most experiencing verbal aggression. A variety of support existed for staff but lacked consistency, with some of the staff receiving more support from colleagues than their manager. Most RNs had received education in the management of violence and aggression, but some mentioned this was not specific to their neuroscience patient population, and most required further training. Thirty-one RN educators completed the survey, and the results were similar to those of the RN for education provision. Surprisingly, many neuroscience areas did not have a code system or personal alarms to alert staff to a violence or aggression emergency. CONCLUSION: Most RNs felt safe at work despite the high prevalence of violence and aggression experienced. Education was considered beneficial, but they desired more and further research into effective RN education. Effective support post incident needs to be determined. Protection for staff is paramount: few areas had code systems to raise an alarm for agitation, and few places of work had personal alarms that, if implemented, might enable a quicker response to prevent harm.</p>","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"55 2","pages":"45-48"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10019302","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}

Malnutrition defined as undernutrition is common in patients with acquired brain injury (ABI); however, estimates vary remarkably. This study aimed to describe malnutrition at admission and after 4 weeks of subacute inpatient neurorehabilitation in patients with ABI using the new global consensus definition of malnutrition. METHODS: One hundred thirty-three patients with moderate to severe ABI consecutively admitted to a specialized neurorehabilitation hospital within a period of 4 months were screened for inclusion, of which 92 were included. Malnutrition was defined as at least 1 phenotypic criterion (weight loss, low body mass index, low muscle mass) and at least 1 etiologic criterion (reduced food intake, inflammation). Malnutrition on admission and after 4 weeks was compared using the McNemar test. RESULTS: The proportion of patients with malnutrition at admission was 42%, with more men (46%) than women (36%) fulfilling the criteria for malnutrition. The most frequent phenotypic and etiologic criteria were weight loss (56%) and inflammation (74%), respectively. During the 4 weeks of rehabilitation, the proportion of male patients fulfilling the individual criteria \"weight loss\" (difference, -21.4%) and \"inflammation\" (difference, -18.9%) decreased significantly; \"low muscle mass\" decreased borderline significant (difference, -8.9%), whereas \"low body mass index\" did not change. The proportion of female patients fulfilling individual criteria for malnutrition was stable or increased nonsignificantly. CONCLUSION: Malnutrition was common at admission to neurorehabilitation in patients with moderate to severe ABI, with more men than women fulfilling the criteria for malnutrition. The nutritional status improved after 4 weeks of rehabilitation in male patients, whereas it was largely unchanged in female patients.

METHODS : A nonblind, randomized controlled trial was conducted in stroke patients to determine whether an education program intervention would alter behavior concerning home blood pressure measurements.

The intervention involved 5 face-to-face support or telephone support sessions over 6 months to provide information regarding home blood pressure measurements and to confirm patient behavior using a textbook, a blood pressure recording form, and a blood pressure measurement device. RESULTS : There were no significant differences at baseline between the intervention and usual care groups. The median rate of performing home blood pressure measurements at 12 months was significantly higher in the intervention group (100.0% [99.1%-100.0%], n = 24) than the control group (62.5% [27.7%-87.5%], n = 24) ( P < .001).
