Nursing Evaluation

3.3K
The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

Area of Science:

  • Midwifery Practice
  • Healthcare Policy
  • Professional Development

Background:

  • Global variance exists in determining and regulating midwifery scope of practice.
  • Lack of consensus on advanced midwifery scope leads to underutilized staff, unmet consumer needs, and skill loss.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize and map the international literature on advanced midwifery scope of practice.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic scoping review using PRISMA-ScR methodology.
  • Searched MEDLINE, CINAHL, Scopus, and Google for publications from 2019 to August 2022.
  • Mapped reported skills to International Confederation of Midwives competencies and global investment areas.

Main Results:

  • 28 articles met inclusion criteria.
  • Reported advanced skills included abortion care, prescribing, ultrasound, and primary health.
