Current Trends in Nursing II01:30

Current Trends in Nursing II

1.2K
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 Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

4.9K
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.

Assessment of the Gastrointestinal System II: Health Perception Pattern01:29

Assessment of the Gastrointestinal System II: Health Perception Pattern

75
Assessing the gastrointestinal (GI) system is a complex process that begins with collecting subjective data. This data, collected through patient interviews, provides crucial insights into the patient's health history, perception patterns, and lifestyle habits, all contributing significantly to GI health.
Health Perception Patterns
Health perception patterns offer valuable insights into a patient's lifestyle habits and how they may impact their GI health. These patterns include:

Nursing Evaluation01:15

Nursing Evaluation

3.2K
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.

Surveys

14.7K
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Nursing Ethical Principles II01:27

Nursing Ethical Principles II

917
Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.
Initially, Mr. John's...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Health Equity
  • Simulation Technology

Background:

  • Social determinants of health (SDOH) significantly impact patient outcomes.
  • Nursing education requires effective methods to teach complex community health concepts.
  • Experiential learning is crucial for preparing nurses for diverse practice settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the impact of virtual reality (VR) simulation on nursing students' understanding of social determinants of health (SDOH).
  • To assess changes in nursing students' knowledge and attitudes toward SDOH following VR simulation.
  • To evaluate VR simulation as an innovative tool for enhancing nursing students' readiness for community practice.

Main Methods:

  • Quantitative descriptive study design.
  • Utilized VR simulations depicting diverse home environments and client scenarios.
  • Assessed nursing students' knowledge and attitudes toward SDOH pre- and post-intervention.

Main Results:

  • VR simulations positively impacted nursing students' understanding of SDOH.
  • Students demonstrated enhanced knowledge and attitudes toward factors influencing community health.
  • The intervention effectively bridged experiential learning gaps in nursing education.

Conclusions:

  • VR simulation is an effective pedagogical tool for teaching SDOH in nursing.
  • This technology enhances nursing students' preparedness to address socioeconomic disparities in community settings.
