Despite that the concept has been in use in a variety of contexts for decades, a substantial number of scientific papers apply it with seemingly little consistency. In this study, we therefore report a concept analysis of family care management within a chronic-conditions context from the nursing perspective.Methods: A review of recent nursing and health-related literature covering the years 2000-2020 was performed on the concepts of family care, family nursing, family management, and care management. Nineteen studies were extracted for this analysis. Utilizing the Walker and Avant concept-analysis strategy, we defined attributes and analyzed the antecedents and their consequences.Results: The concept is defined from the perspective of health professionals. Five key attributes of family care management were identified: supervising situations, providing guidance, creating partnerships, a philosophical foundation, and a management style. Antecedents to the conductance of family care management included chronic health status, demographic and socioeconomic factors, and shortage of resources. The outcome of family care management was then described with respect to both positive and negative aspects.Implication for practice: Family care management is a highly abstract concept. We described two sub-concepts in need of clarification, including dynamic management behavior and a static management frame. Without a clear understanding of family care management, the concept is at risk of being relegated to a vague colloquial expression. Developing a theory of family care management might position the concept in a theoretical context, and could provide health providers with a point of reference for meaningful family care management strategies within their practices.","PeriodicalId":51287,"journal":{"name":"Research and Theory for Nursing Practice","volume":"36 1","pages":"66-100"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39930012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Less urgent/nonurgent, alert, and cooperative patients were identified directly after the completion of emergency treatment. The perspectives of patients about the quality of emergency services were evaluated by 10 domains articulated in a validated accident and emergency questionnaire.Results: A total of 276 patients were enrolled in the study. Private sector scored higher in all assessment domains in both accredited and nonaccredited hospitals in comparison with the government sector. Accredited government hospitals scored higher in patients' evaluation for \"doctor and nurse,\" \"investigations,\" \"pain,\" and \"overall respect of medical staff\" domains than nonaccredited government hospitals. The overall experience was significantly different between accredited and nonaccredited government hospitals.Implications for practice: Quality of emergency care services should be assessed through various dimensions related to patients' perspectives.

In this pilot, multimethods study, we examined motivation for preparing for infant caregiving of women in their third trimester of pregnancy expecting either a healthy infant or an infant with complex congenital heart disease (CCHD).Methods: Eleven women expecting a healthy infant and four expecting an infant with CCHD completed a questionnaire and were interviewed. Preparing was reported in context of expectations, intentions, and goals and in personal, family, and infant conditions. Motivation for preparing was expressed through an interview about caregiving issues women were working on. Intensity of motivation was estimated by self-report of the time infant caregiving issues were in thought or action. Effect sizes were calculated for between group differences in motivation intensity. Interview data were examined with directed content analysis.Results: Intensity of motivation was higher for women expecting an infant with CCHD for issues of Knowing What and How to prepare. Women expecting an infant with CCHD reported uncertainty about how they would feed their babies given their health condition. Interviews yielded new motivations encompassing issues of family and working with the parent partner.Implications: Assessment of issues women are working on prenatally, indicating motivations for preparing for infant caregiving, and of the intensity of motivations advances culturally-attuned and family-centered preparation. Knowledge of these issues and motivation intensity could orient clinical care to supporting women in developing well-informed expectations, intentions, and goals culturally suited to postnatal learning and infant needs.","PeriodicalId":51287,"journal":{"name":"Research and Theory for Nursing Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39415876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This widespread Internet use and the global coronavirus disease (COVID-19) preventive measures provide opportunities for data collection using the Internet in healthcare research. No recent studies have been conducted regarding the methodological issues of asynchronous Internet research that employed opened-ended questions to explore providers' and patients' experiences.Purpose: This study utilizes prior research to explore methodological issues that affect online research using open-ended questions to obtain health data.Methods: The electronic databases searched were PubMed, CINAHL, and full-text Ovid. Reference lists and the Journal of Medical Internet Research were manually searched. The search strategy was based on the PRISMA flow diagram. Articles published between January 2003 and May 2020 were searched. Inclusion criteria were asynchronous online researcher-led studies that used open-ended questions to explore healthcare issues. Methodological issues were extracted from the selected studies.Results: The evidence suggests that factors such as technical/website study/survey design issues, smartphone study applications, use of reminders, incentives, overrecruiting participants, using a combination of asynchronous and synchronous methods, trustworthiness, ethical and security issues affect the quality of data obtained in online health research.Implications for practice: Asynchronous online research methods with open-ended questions could be used to collect high-quality data from patients, healthcare providers, and other participants in self-isolation, quarantine, and in diverse locations. However, researchers should be aware of the identified methodological issues. Future research could explore methodological issues and data quality in combined asynchronous and synchronous data collection methods.","PeriodicalId":51287,"journal":{"name":"Research and Theory for Nursing Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39415877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to explore the transition experience of a cohort of new graduate nurses in the ICU over a 2-year period.Methods: A longitudinal mixed-methods convergent design using a purposive and convenience sample of new graduate nurses working in an ICU. Surveys were administered and in-depth qualitative interviews were conducted at four points in time over a 2-year period.Results: Participants identified a number of skills that remained difficult, as well as less comfort in performing a number of nursing interventions, over the four time points. In addition, they highlighted a decline in their perception of receiving encouragement and feedback from their manager. Participants identified that a lack of confidence was a barrier to transition and that improved orientation and work environment could further support them in their journey. Certain aspects of their work environment, such as peer support, were identified as most satisfying, whereas the environment and system were least satisfying.Implications for practice: The results provide a greater understanding of the transition experienced by new graduate nurses in the ICU.

Moreover, it sought to identify factors affecting cancer prevention behavior and cancer screening.Methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive correlational design was used.

Ninety-two participants reported having undergone cancer screenings, but the types of screening were not associated with their family history. Age, gender, and attitude toward cancer affected cancer prevention behaviors. The cancer screening rate was higher in older participants, in women, and in patients' FDRs with a longer cancer diagnosis.Implications for practice: Attitude was the modifiable factor for cancer prevention behaviors.

However, the description of the concept is vague, thereby limiting the understanding of the theory. Thus, the aim was to develop a theoretical definition of probabilistic thinking in order to increase the explanatory value of RUIT.Methods: We conducted a principle-based concept analysis by means of a conceptually driven literature search. Methods consisted of database, dictionary, lexicon, and free web searching as well as citation tracking. We analyzed the concept in terms of (a) epistemology, (b) pragmatics, (c) logic, and (d) linguistics.Results: The final data set included 27 publications, 14 of them from nursing. (a) Probabilistic thinking is a coping strategy to handle uncertainty. It involves a focus on either possibilities (in nursing) or probabilities (in other disciplines). (b) There is a lack of operationalization in nursing, though three measurements focusing the handling of probabilities are offered in psychology. (c) Nursing authors interpreting probabilistic thinking as accepted uncertainty lacked logical appropriateness, since probability negotiates uncertainty. (d) Probabilistic thinking is used synonymously with positive thinking and probabilistic reasoning.Implications for practice: Nurses working with chronically ill patients should consider the findings for the application of RUIT. They should recognize whether uncertainty is perceived as a danger and encourage probabilistic thinking. Efforts are necessary to achieve a common language between nursing and other disciplines in order to avoid misunderstandings in clinical practice and research.","PeriodicalId":51287,"journal":{"name":"Research and Theory for Nursing Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39415880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A previous study cohort of randomly selected 100 people with diabetes was followed-up for over 10 years, following a brief intervention managed by a community nurse. Data of diabetes control measures (e.g., hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c], low-density lipoprotein [LDL], and blood pressure) and clinical use of medical services (e.g., nurse, physician, dietician, and hospitalizations) were extracted from the medical records and compared from before the intervention to short and long-term follow-ups (median of 25 months, 10.56 years respectively).Results: During the follow-up period, 18 participants (median age at intervention time 73 years) died. HbA1c dropped significantly (p < .001) from before to after the intervention, and remained low. LDL and Systolic Blood pressure decreased and continued to decrease during the long-term follow-up.

To develop a deeper insight of the needs of this patient population, interpretive description uses disciplinary knowledge as the source of understanding. This methodology is a pragmatic approach to research without focusing on a strict methodological directive. The aims of this scoping review are twofold, (a) to describe the findings of studies that have used Thorne's interpretive description to research chronic illness and (b) to discuss the application of interpretive description in clinical research. Thereby, showing interpretive description as a valuable tool to advance nursing knowledge and patient care.Methods: The methodological framework for this review was based on the Johanna Briggs Institute guidelines for scoping reviews.Results: To develop an understanding of interpretive description, it is essential to examine the results of studies which have applied the methodology. Our scoping review showed that researchers utilizing interpretive description identified four common challenges experienced by individuals living with chronic illness: symptom management, education and knowledge, supportive care, and cultural disadvantages. By demonstrating how interpretive description is applied, it shows how it can be used to understand and interpret clinical phenomena to improve practice.Implication for practice: This scoping review demonstrates how interpretive description was used to develop knowledge about chronic illness. The premise of interpretive description is that disciplinary knowledge offers a sufficient foundation to develop meaningful research to support health practices.

Nurses must be engaged with the appropriate attitude and educated with essential competencies to implement EBP systematically into their daily practice. This study assessed the attitudes, knowledge, and skills of registered nurses toward the adoption of EBP in making clinical decisions in their practice.Methods: This quantitative, crosssectional study surveyed a convenience sample of 312 nurses from five regions in Saudi Arabia from October 2019 to December 2019.Results: The majority of nurses were unknowledgeable about the acceptable definition of EBP. The highest overall mean score was reported in the motivation subscale, followed by the skill and barrier subscales. The attitude subscale received the lowest overall mean score, which denotes a positive attitude. The nationality, level of nursing education, and years of experience had significant multivariate effects on nurses' EBP skills. Consequently, designation and EBP training had significant multivariate effects on nurses' perceived barriers to EBP adoption.Implications for practice: Nurses lack EBP knowledge. Nonetheless, they are motivated with positive attitudes to implement EBP in their professional practice if they are given adequate training and resources, sufficient time and managerial support, and mentoring from nurses with adequate EBP experience. Heightening the understanding and utilization of the best available scientific resources about EBP into nurses' daily clinical decision and practice is essential.","PeriodicalId":51287,"journal":{"name":"Research and Theory for Nursing Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39119693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
