    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Nursing technology has advanced rapidly, but education and training programs lag behind, leaving nurses unprepared to manage complex equipment. Addressing this gap requires changes in academic training, employer practices, and nursing professional development to ensure nurses can effectively utilize health care technology.
