Filter by:Aims: To evaluate the effectiveness of the "Reserved Therapeutic Space" intervention for improving the nurse-patient therapeutic relationship in acute mental health units in Spain, as well as its impact in terms of quality of care and patients' perceptions of coercion. Design: Multicenter intervention study with control group. Methods: The study will be carried out in 12 mental health units in Spain. Given the conditions of evaluation in real clinical practice, paired randomization will be performed to assign centers to intervention and control groups. The "Reserved Therapeutic Space" intervention to be tested has been co-designed and validated by both nurses and patients. The quality of the therapeutic relationship, the care received, and perceived coercion among patients will be assessed at baseline and at discharge using instruments validated in our context. An estimated 131 patients per group are expected to participate. Funding was granted in July 2021 by the Institute of Health Carlos III (PI21/00605, Ministry of Science and Innovation) and in October 2021 by the College of Nurses of Barcelona (PR-487/2021). The proposal was approved by all the Research Ethics Committees of participating centers. Discussion: This study is expected to demonstrate the effectiveness of a specific nursing intervention on patient health outcomes including the level of the therapeutic relationship, the quality of care, the level of coercion and other specific indicators for acute mental health units. Impact: This project will lead to changes in clinical practice, transforming the current models of organization and care management in mental health hospitalization units, promoting the quality of the therapeutic relationship and, ultimately, the quality of person-centered care.
A nursing visit is a method used for psychological preparation and information of patients. During nursing visits, the operating room nurse visits the patient before the surgery, informs the patient about the surgical process and nursing care practices and gives education. The study was conducted to determine the effect of nursing visit before laparoscopic surgery on the anxiety and pain level of the patient in the postoperative period.

The goal is to promote PCC culture in older people LTC. Research question 1: What is the effectiveness of the PFP intervention on the PCC collective competency of nurses in older people LTC? Hypothesis for research question 1 are: 1. Nurses in intervention group will have higher level of competence of PCC than control. Research question 2: How PCC climate has been maintained in older people LTC from the point of view of the nurses, next of kin and older people? Hypothesis for research question 2 are: 1. PCC climate will be better in intervention group than control from point of view of the nurses, next of kin and older people. 2. The higher competence of nurses the higher level of PCC climate from point of view of the next of kin and older people. 3. The higher collective competence of the nurses the higher level of the PCC climate from point of view of the next of kin and older people.
Elderly people (EP) have increased, as well as life expectancy at birth. In Chile there are more than 2 million 800 thousand EP, which corresponds to 1/6 of the Chilean population. The EP have a higher disease burden and mortality when facing surgery and in the postoperative period. Thus, this population frequently has longer hospital stays due to its degree of fragility, surgical complications or decompensation of its underlying pathologies, directly affecting health care systems. An inadequate preparation of the EP prior to surgery determined that the requirements of in-hospital as well as out-of-hospital care are extended, with the consequent which entails a higher cost in health. Current research underestimates the conditions of frailty and dependence in the EP. In addition, it is not routinely evaluated prior to surgery, as well as nutritional, metabolic, cognitive status and / or delirium screening is performed. There are accelerated recovery programs, which relate their interventions to specific pathologies; however, the age of the person is not taken into account. Surgical pre-habilitation interventions in the EP usually focus their efforts on physical and cardiovascular aspects, not including an integrative pre-surgical evaluation. Based on the foregoing, a prospective, interventional, longitudinal and randomized study has been proposed in a population of the EP who will undergo elective urology and coloproctology surgeries in two university hospitals (private and public). The objective of this study is to evaluate how the implementation of a timely pre-surgical conditioning (APO) protocol for frail elderly people reduces the days of hospital stay. The APO considers the most relevant aspects of physical and cardiovascular pre-habilitation, in addition to contemplating evaluations of frailty, dependence, cognitive status, screening for delirium, nutritional and metabolic.
Patients on dialysis are at risk for several infectious diseases, since they have reduced immunological and have to regularly attend dialysis centres even if a pandemic is going on. Dialysis patients and healthcare professionals of dialysis centres can become infected one with the other. The incident risk of COVID-19 in dialysis centres is still unknown. Given the challenges of an early diagnosis of COVID-19, the likely transmission with outbreaks, the possibility of reciprocal transmission of the infection among patients and healthcare professionals, the frequent clinical severity of COVID-19 in dialysis patients because of the coexistence of several comorbidities, CONTACT TRACING could be an effective and efficient tool to contrast COVID-19 spreading in dialysis centres.
Caring is an integral part of nursing. It is grounded on universal human value such as empathy, to provide quality nursing care to patients. Nursing educators have a responsibility to develop teaching strategies to enable students to learn how to care using empathy. One way to foster empathy is by adopting experiential learning where knowledge and understanding is developing through transforming of experience. The use of cinema, as a form of drama, provides opportunities for students to learn from another people's story. You Tube, a large medium of digital story video clips, can offers tremendous opportunities for nursing educators to engage and assess to students. Some You Tube videos provide fictional scenarios from people discussing on their health problems and related concerns that give students real-life insight and promote cultivation on empathetic caring attitudes required for ethical healthcare practice needs. Using video technology to facilitate learning has become more popular in nursing but the research for using YouTube as a pedagogical tool on empathy is limited. This study aims to examine the use of YouTube video as a teaching resource on nursing student's empathy, attitude and understanding of patients' and caregivers' experience in various health conditions.
This study with a randomized, pretest - posttest controlled experimental design was conducted to determine the effects of active and passive heating methods applied in different parts of the perioperative process on thermal comfort, anxiety and vital signs. The study was conducted with the patients who were hospitalized for open abdominal surgical interventions in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, of Selcuk University Medical Faculty Hospital, between the dates of 1 October 2018 and 10 January 2019. The study included 99 patients in two control groups and one experimental group. The patients in group A were dressed with hot air blowing patients scrubs in both preoperative and postoperative periods, while patients in group B were dressed with hot air blowing patients scrubs only in the postoperative period. The control group continued routine practice. In the preoperative period, vital signs, thermal comfort, and anxiety levels of the patients were evaluated. In the intraoperative period, vital signs and thermal comfort levels of the patients were evaluated. Thermal comfort level of the patients was re-evaluated prior to the induction of anesthesia. Once the patients were transferred to the post-anesthesia care unit, among the vital signs of the patients, body temperature was measured in the temporal region, and other signs were measured using the monitors. Thermal comfort and anxiety levels of the patients were re-evaluated after they got dressed.
Aim: To evaluate whether the application of the Relationship-based Care (RBC) model as a treatment called "Take 5 minutes" (T5M) affects the level of anxiety and depression of the parent, the level of the parent perceived quality of nursing care and the work satisfaction of the nursing staff. Design: Single-blind randomized controlled trial. Methods: The trial was performed from February to July 2016. The trial was conducted with one intervention (N=101) and one control group (N=90). Nurses applied the RBC model as a treatment, named "Take 5 Minutes", that consisted of dedicating some short time (from 5 to 10 minutes) to the relationship with the parents, using specifically designed communication strategies. The primary outcome was the evaluation of anxiety and depression of parents, the secondary was the parent perceived quality of nursing care.
