Current Trends in Nursing II01:30

Current Trends in Nursing II

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 Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
Nursing Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

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

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

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:
Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures01:22

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...
Varicose Veins II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care01:26

Varicose Veins II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Varicose veins, or varicosities, develop when the valves in the veins, which control blood flow, weaken or damage. It causes blood to pool and the veins to enlarge. Understanding the clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, and management options for varicose veins is crucial for effective treatment and relief.Clinical manifestationsClinical manifestations of varicose veins include a heavy, achy feeling or pain after prolonged standing or sitting. This discomfort can often be relieved by...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Healthcare Management
  • Implementation Science

Background:

  • Evidence-based practice (EBP) is crucial for quality nursing care and patient safety.
  • Vascular access specialist teams (VASTs) are key in implementing EBP for intravenous therapy complications.
  • Understanding VAST nurses' EBP implementation competencies in Spain is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the implementation competencies for EBP among VAST nurses in Spain.
  • To identify barriers and facilitators to EBP adoption and sustainability within VASTs.
  • To inform strategies for strengthening EBP capabilities in specialized nursing teams.

Main Methods:

  • A two-stage mixed-methods study conducted in 2023.
  • Quantitative national cross-sectional survey of VAST nurses using an adapted questionnaire.
  • Qualitative in-depth semi-structured interviews with a purposive sample, analyzed thematically.

Main Results:

  • High self-perceived competence in EBP domains like role, identity, knowledge, and collective context (mean scores >4.2/5).
  • Lower scores in organizational domains (mean 3.9/5) indicate structural barriers to sustained EBP.
  • Positive correlations found between EBP knowledge and beliefs about capabilities/behavioral regulation.

Conclusions:

  • VAST nurses possess strong intrinsic motivation and emerging EBP capabilities.
  • Limited formal training and weak organizational infrastructure hinder EBP enactment and sustainability.
  • Structured implementation training and formalized organizational support for VAST roles are recommended to improve EBP adoption.
