Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions01:29

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

2.2K
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:

Nursing interventions are chosen as part of the planning process to achieve patient outcomes. Once nursing diagnoses are determined, the goals and outcomes are specified, then the nursing interventions are selected and individualized according to the patient's situation.
A nursing intervention is a treatment or action based on scientific concepts and knowledge from the nursing, behavioral, and physical sciences. Identifying and prioritizing nursing interventions based on the desired outcome...

Patient-centered Care

2.0K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Summary

Introducing a full-time intensivist to a medical ICU increased interventions like mechanical ventilation and renal replacement therapy. However, intensive care unit mortality rates remained unchanged, indicating a need for further study on intensivist impact.

Area of Science:

  • Critical Care Medicine
  • Healthcare Management
  • Patient Outcomes

Background:

  • Intensivist staffing is recommended for high-quality intensive care unit (ICU) care.
  • A shortage of qualified intensivists exists in many regions, including Türkiye.
  • This study evaluates the impact of introducing a full-time intensivist in a medical ICU.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the effect of a full-time intensivist on patient characteristics.
  • To evaluate changes in ICU interventions and patient outcomes.
  • To compare pre- and post-intensivist periods in a medical ICU in Türkiye.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of adult ICU patients from February 2018 to January 2020.
  • Comparison of patient demographics, admission reasons, severity scores (APACHE-II, SOFA), interventions, and outcomes.
  • Data collected from Van Yüzüncü Yıl University Dursun Odabaş Medical Center.

Main Results:

  • No significant demographic differences were observed between pre- and post-intensivist periods.
  • Patients in the post-intensivist period had higher APACHE-II and SOFA scores.
  • Increased use of mechanical ventilation, non-invasive ventilation, renal replacement therapy, and enteral nutrition was noted post-intensivist introduction. ICU mortality rates remained comparable.

Conclusions:

  • Full-time intensivist introduction altered ICU interventions, increasing the use of advanced therapies.
  • Despite changes in interventions, ICU mortality rates did not significantly change.
  • Further research is required to understand the long-term effects of intensivist staffing on patient outcomes in Türkiye.
