Nurses experienced difficulties in maintaining person-centered interactions due to technological impediments.
A key strategy identified was "maximizing," where nurses exerted additional effort to fulfill patient humanistic needs within technological constraints.

Conclusions:

The "maximizing" strategy highlights nurses' commitment to person-centered care despite technological challenges.
Understanding these strategies can inform the development of better technological integration in nursing practice to support, not hinder, humanistic patient interactions.
