Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

3.7K
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:

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Current Trends in Nursing II

3.7K
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,...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing science
  • Environmental psychology
  • Critical space theory

Background:

  • Intensive care units (ICUs) present paradoxes: life-saving yet disorienting for patients.
  • ICU materiality can increase stress and hinder recovery.
  • Current interventions are limited by single-theory approaches to ICU materiality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an integrated framework for studying ICU materiality.
  • To guide research on stakeholder needs and design interventions.
  • To foster more supportive and healing care environments in ICUs.

Main Methods:

  • Theory-informed synthesis of Roy's Adaptation Model, Ulrich's Theory of Supportive Design, and Lefebvre's Critical Theory on Space Production.
  • Conceptual mapping across ontological, interactional, and interventional levels.
  • Focus on relevance to ICU settings and theoretical complementarity.

Main Results:

  • Identified convergent points and complementary relationships among the three theories.
  • Developed an integrated framework with three dimensions: environmental stimuli/adaptive response, spatial production/power relations, and evidence-based supportive design.
  • Demonstrated interconnectedness of biological, psychological, social, and material dimensions in healing ICU environments.

Conclusions:

  • Healing ICU environments necessitate interdisciplinary approaches addressing multiple dimensions simultaneously.
  • Interventions should target physiological needs, reduce psychological stress via supportive design, and address spatial power dynamics.
  • The framework empowers stakeholders to actively shape healing ICU environments through research and practice.
