Abstract

Background:

The use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in healthcare settings is a very important factor of infection control activities to prevent transmission of infection. In this study, we aimed to develop a non-face-to-face method that can reduce transmission of infection and an educational method that allows self-learning and self-training, and verify the effectiveness of a donning and doffing PPE education using video debriefing on third-year nursing students in clinical train.

Methods:

The researcher assigned groups through random sampling using a random number table from the list of research subjects who agreed to participate. Therefore, 35 subjects in the experimental group with an education on donning and doffing PPE using video debriefing and 34 subjects in the control group with video-based training (VBT) were participated in April 2023 at a university in Incheon, South Korea. The evaluation phase involved verifying effects of the education on observer evaluation donningand doffing PPE performance and self-evaluation donningand doffing PPE performance. Satisfaction with the education also assessed immediately after intervention by the experimental group.

Results:

The experimental group had significantly higher scores for observer evaluationdonning (t = 7.84, p < .001) and observer evaluation doffing (t = 6.52, p < .001) PPE performances than the control group. However, there was no significant difference in self-evaluation donning (t = 0.98, p < .330) or doffing PPE performance (t = 0.17, p < .869) between the two groups. In the experimental group that applied video debriefing, learning satisfaction was 4.33 ± 0.82 points out of 5 points.

Conclusions:

The education on donning and doffing PPE applying video debriefing was effective. If the education developed in this study is used as a self-learning method to improve the infection control capacity necessary to respond to a disaster crisis caused by infectious diseases, it is considered to be useful for preventing the transmission of infectious diseases in the future.

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation

Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning,...

Personal Protective Equipment

Personal Protective Equipment

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is unique clothing or equipment worn by an employee to minimize or prevent exposure to infectious agents. PPE creates a barrier between the employee and the infectious materials. PPE must be readily available in the patient care area. PPE includes gloves, gowns and aprons, masks and respirators, goggles, face shields, shoes, and headcovers:

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings II: Doffing

The sequence of removing or doffing PPE starts with the gloves, as they are the most contaminated. Next is removal of the face shield or goggles, as they would interfere with removing other PPE. Then remove the gown, followed by the mask or respirator. Perform hand hygiene between steps if hands become contaminated and immediately after removing all PPE. Generally, the outside front and sleeves of the isolation gown, the goggles or the mask, the respirator, and the face shield are contaminated.

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning

Donning PPE must be completed before contact with the patient. This process protects from infectious agents. The sequence and action included in each donning are critical, and the steps must be systematic to avoid exposure to pathogens. The institutional policy also needs to be followed while donning PPE. The pre-donning preparations are gathering equipment, inspecting the PPE equipment for tears, holes, or damage, removing jewelry, removing any garments below the elbows, and tying the hair...

Nursing Evaluation

Nursing Evaluation

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.

Methods of Documentation III: PIE

Methods of Documentation III: PIE

Problem-intervention-evaluation (PIE) is a systematic approach to documentation used in healthcare settings for clinical decision-making and patient care planning. It is a structured approach to organizing patient data based on problems, interventions, and evaluations. Here's a breakdown of its key features and considerations:
