Maintaining records of patients' fluid intake and output (I&O) has long been considered an important aspect of nursing care to assess hydration status. In clinical practice, a prevalence of incongruence between I&O results and clinical signs and symptoms has been noted. We postulate that this incongruence may be due to an inaccurate or non-comprehensive collection of fluid I&O and/or the patient's and their families' inadequate recognition of the importance of I&O recording.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000This implementation project was conducted in a cardiology ward of a medical hospital using the Joanna Briggs Institute Practical Application of Clinical Evidence System. Three audit criteria were utilized to represent best practice recommendations for fluid balance monitoring. A pre-implementation audit was conducted, followed by development of multiple interventions identified from a Getting Research into Practice analysis. Two post-implementation audits were conducted to determine the change in practice.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000The post-implementation audit data demonstrated significantly improved outcomes across the measured best practice criteria. Specifically, improvement in compliance was noted in: i) fluid balance charts being utilized in conjunction with physical assessment and electrolyte monitoring to assess the hydration status of a patient (from 58% to 100% compliance); ii) patient involvement in more accurate documentation (from 42% to 75% compliance); and iii) staff education in fluid balance monitoring and documentation (from 53% to 100% compliance).\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000Fluid record omission was reduced at the completion of the project secondary to an increased awareness of the fluid record omission standards among patients as well as physical assessment and fluid overload correlation among the nursing staff in the unit. The findings demonstrate how audits can be utilized to promote best practice in healthcare. Additionally, the data indicates that focused education and the provision of relevant resources can have an immediate and positive impact on clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":73539,"journal":{"name":"JBI database of systematic reviews and implementation reports","volume":"72 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83495613","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}

It is crucial that healthcare professionals use a standardized tool to assess and document pain during dressing change and then use this information to inform strategies to alleviate the pain.\u0000\u0000\u0000OBJECTIVES\u0000The aim of this project was to implement evidence-based practice in assessment and management of pain during dressing change among patients with diabetic foot ulcers in an endocrinology unit in a tertiary hospital.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000The JBI Practical Application of Clinical Evidence System (JBI PACES) and Getting Research into Practice (GRiP) audit and feedback tool were used for auditing clinical practice and translating evidence into practice. A baseline audit was performed to assess compliance with six criteria, followed by the implementation of evidence-based interventions to improve compliance. The follow-up audit using the same audit criteria was conducted to assess the effect of targeted strategies on compliance with best practice.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000The baseline audit revealed that compliance with evidence-based practice was low, with only one of the six audit criteria achieving a compliance rate above 60%. After brainstorming and synthesizing the literature, the project team identified barriers and strategies for implementing best practice. The follow-up audit showed improvements in compliance across all six criteria, although there was only a small improvement in one of the criteria. The compliance rate of the other five criteria improved to greater than 67%.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000A best practice implementation project that involved standardizing pain assessment and management, and delivering education materials to nursing staff and patients was completed using JBI PACES and GRiP.

Complementary therapies including flavonoids have generated interest in assisting the treatment of hypertension. Flavonoids are a type of polyphenol abundant in fruits and a growing body of evidence suggests antihypertensive effects of the flavonoids due to its antioxidant properties. To date, no systematic review has been performed to collate the evidence on the effects of flavonoid rich fruits on hypertension in adults.\u0000\u0000\u0000INCLUSION CRITERIA\u0000This systematic review included only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the administration of any type of flavonoid rich fruit or equivalent supplement with a placebo or other intervention in adults with hypertension. Trials that measured blood pressure using objective outcome measures such as a manual mercury sphygmomanometer were included. Studies that did not specify the flavonoid component of the fruit or fruit supplement were excluded in the review. Secondary outcomes, including change in weight, blood glucose level, triglycerides and total blood cholesterol levels were also assessed.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000A three-step search was undertaken, including a comprehensive search of the MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Trials (CENTRAL) and CINAHL databases, in September 2018. We also searched Dissertation Abstracts International, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, MedNar and ClinicalTrials.gov to identify unpublished studies. The title and abstracts of the studies were reviewed by two independent reviewers against the inclusion/exclusion criteria. The methodological quality of the potential studies for inclusion were assessed using the critical appraisal checklist for randomized controlled trials as recommended by the Joanna Briggs Institute.

Delirium has deleterious effects, increasing the risk of death and adversely affecting recovery. Clinical interventional trials have been conducted to prevent and treat postoperative delirium pharmacologically including antipsychotics and sedatives. These trials have provided some evidence about efficacy and influenced clinical decision making. However, much reporting is incomplete and provides biased assessments of efficacy; benefits are emphasized while harms are inadequately reported.\u0000\u0000\u0000INCLUSION CRITERIA\u0000Participants were ≥ 16 years, any sex or ethnicity, who were treated postoperatively in a cardiothoracic ICU following cardiac surgery and were identified as having delirium. Any pharmacological intervention for the treatment of delirium was included, regardless of drug classification, dosage, intensity or frequency of administration. Outcomes of interest of this review were: mortality, duration and severity of delirium, use of physical restraints, quality of life, family members' satisfaction with delirium management, duration/severity of the aggressive episode, associated falls, severity of accidental self-harm, pharmacological harms, harms related to over-sedation, ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay (post ICU), total hospital length of stay, need for additional intervention medication and need for rescue medication. Randomized controlled trials were considered first and in their absence, non-randomized controlled trials and quasi-experimental would have been considered, followed by analytical observational studies.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000A search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Scopus, Epistemonikos, Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry, ClinicalTrials.gov, Clinical Trials in New Zealand, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses to locate both published and unpublished studies.
