Current Trends in Nursing II

Current Trends in Nursing II

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:

Fundamentals of Nursing Process I

Fundamentals of Nursing Process I

The nursing process is the core of practice for every registered nurse to deliver holistic, patient-focused care. The following are the five steps in the nursing process.

Nursing Implementation

Nursing Implementation

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Brain Imaging

Brain Imaging

Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic...

Summary

Neuroimaging measures, including structural, functional, and molecular approaches, can help assess cognitive changes in aging populations. Nurse scientists can utilize these techniques to better understand cognitive decline and its impact on health outcomes.

Keywords:

“neuroimaging measures,” “nursing research,” “cognition,” and “health outcomes.”

Area of Science:

Gerontology
Neuroscience
Nursing Research

Background:

Global medical advances have increased lifespan, leading to an aging population at higher risk for cognitive decline.
Current nursing research has limited use of neuroimaging measures for evaluating cognitive changes.
This review aims to familiarize nurse scientists with neuroimaging techniques for assessing brain-cognition relationships.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce nurse scientists to various neuroimaging measures.
To highlight the utility of neuroimaging in understanding cognitive changes associated with aging.
To encourage the integration of neuroimaging into nursing research methodologies.

Main Methods:

A literature search was conducted across CINAHL, Web of Science, and PubMed.
Keywords included "neuroimaging measures," "aging," "cognition," "qualitative scoring," "cognitive ability," "molecular," "structural," and "functional."
The review synthesizes information on different neuroimaging approaches.

Main Results:

Neuroimaging measures are categorized into structural, functional, and molecular imaging.
Structural imaging visualizes brain anatomy (e.g., white matter hyperintensities, cerebral atrophy).
Functional imaging assesses brain activity via blood-oxygen-dependent signals, while molecular imaging visualizes cellular/molecular processes (e.g., neurotransmitter levels).

Conclusions:

Nursing plays a crucial role in addressing factors influencing health outcomes in aging individuals with cognitive decline.
Nurse researchers can leverage existing neuroimaging data for qualitative and quantitative studies.
Utilizing neuroimaging can enhance the characterization of symptom progression, disease risk, and health outcomes in aging populations.
