Techniques of Therapeutic Communication II: Focusing, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing

10.6K
Focusing involves centering a conversation on a message's critical elements or concepts. Focusing is valuable if the talk is vague or patients begin to repeat themselves. Sometimes, when patients are asked about their symptoms, they may go off-topic and try to tell their entire life story. Respectfully, the nurse should bring the conversation back into focus.
This therapeutic technique can also be used when a patient brings up pertinent information during a health-related conversation. The...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

2.2K
The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data...

Data Validation

6.2K
Data validation is an essential part of a comprehensive assessment. Validation is confirming or verifying and opening the door to gathering more assessment data as it clarifies vague or unclear data. The process of checking and verifying the collected information is called data validation. The primary purpose of data validation is to ensure data is as free from error, bias, and misinterpretation as possible.
Nursing assessment guides are generally based on holistic models rather than medical...

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Area of Science:

  • Health Sciences Research
  • Evidence-Based Practice

Background:

  • The Delphi technique is crucial in health sciences for expert consensus when evidence is limited.
  • It involves collecting and synthesizing expert judgments to address uncertainty.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To map the applications of the Delphi technique in health sciences.
  • To analyze the processes and quality of findings from Delphi studies.
  • To provide a methodological examination of Delphi technique usage.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic analysis of twelve systematic reviews on Delphi techniques across health sciences.
  • Summarization and methodological examination of findings from identified reviews.

Main Results:

  • Delphi studies typically involve 2-3 rounds with selected expert panels.
  • Numerous modifications to the standard Delphi technique have been developed.
  • Significant weaknesses in the reporting quality of Delphi studies were identified.

Conclusions:

  • There is a need for methodological clarification regarding Delphi techniques and their modifications.
  • Establishing criteria for evaluating the quality of Delphi study execution and reporting is necessary.
  • Current findings are based solely on reported data in systematic reviews, not direct execution quality.
