Area of Science:
- Pediatric Critical Care Nursing
- Nursing Science Advancement
- Global Health Research Priorities
Background:
- Pediatric critical care nursing requires focused research to address complex patient and family needs.
- Identifying and prioritizing researchable questions is crucial for evidence-based practice in pediatric intensive care.
Framework:
- Utilized Benner et al.'s conceptual framework for critical care nursing domains.
- Organized knowledge gaps within nine distinct practice areas.
Implementation:
- A consensus conference was held at the Seventh World Congress on Pediatric Intensive and Critical Care.
