Area of Science:

Nursing Science
Healthcare Management
Professional Development

Background:

Global health challenges necessitate optimal utilization of nurses' professional capabilities.
While competencies for advanced practice nurses (APNs) are established, research on their capabilities remains limited.
Understanding APN capabilities is crucial for effective healthcare delivery.

Purpose of the Study:

To systematically review and compare existing literature on the capabilities of advanced practice nurses.
To identify and define the key dimensions of APN capabilities.

Main Methods:

A mixed-methods systematic review was conducted, searching CINAHL, PubMed, and Scopus (1998-2021).
Article quality was assessed using JBI Critical Appraisal Tools.
Abductive content analysis, incorporating deductive and inductive approaches, was employed.

Main Results:

Eleven articles met inclusion criteria, analyzing 357 initially identified studies.
Five established dimensions of capability were confirmed: applying competencies in varied situations, creativity, self-efficacy, learning ability, and teamwork.
A novel dimension was identified: the ability to identify factors influencing the scope of practice.

Conclusions:

Capability is essential for advanced practice nurses' performance.
Defining APN capabilities will guide the development of their roles, education, and assessment.
Enhanced understanding and implementation of APN capabilities can improve healthcare quality, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness.
