Nursing Practice Variations in Pain Management in Older Adults With Dementia Admitted to an Acute Geriatrics Unit During the COVID-19 Pandemic.
The current retrospective descriptive study evaluated nursing practice variations on pain management in older adults with dementia admitted to an acute geriatrics unit (AGU) before (2018) and during (2021) the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Data were gathered from electronic health records. Pain intensity was evaluated a median of 1.9 times per day of stay in the pre-COVID-19 sample, whereas in the COVID-19 sample, the median was 0.7 times per day of stay. Median number of analgesic administrations per day of stay and mean percentage of clinical care records that mentioned pain were higher in patients admitted during the pandemic. Variations in nursing care organization in the AGU due to the COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on the patterns of pain management nursing practice in older adults with dementia.

期刊介绍:
Research in Gerontological Nursing is a forum for disseminating peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary, cutting-edge gerontological nursing research and theory to investigators, educators, academicians, clinicians, and policymakers involved with older adults in all health care settings. The Journal accepts manuscripts reporting research, theory, integrative and systematic reviews, instrument development, and research methods with the aims of improving the wellness and quality of care of the older adult population. Theory papers should advance gerontological knowledge, and integrative reviews should provide an analysis of the state of the science and provide direction for future research.
