Background
Nurse managers enact changes to practice based on information collected from the local ward environment with the aid of electronic risk management and incident reporting systems. Despite being key users of electronic risk management and incident reporting systems, little knowledge exists on nurse managers’ use and communication of information derived from these systems.Aim
This qualitative study aimed to explore nurse manager information requirements, risk management practices, and influences on decision-making when interacting with an electronic risk management and incident reporting system.Methods
Focus groups with eight nurse managers were conducted at a teaching hospital in Melbourne, Australia.Findings
Decision-making and information management approaches varied depending on whether the nurse manager investigated a single incident report or viewed summarised incident reports. Thematic and content analysis produced three themes: navigating the system, relying on data, and communication and feedback.Discussion
Nurse managers faced individual and organisational barriers preventing them from using the risk management and incident reporting system to its full potential.Conclusion
The findings from this study will assist nursing and health care administrators in identifying ineffective practice and meeting nurse manager information requirements. 相似文献3.
Objective
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of acceptance and commitment therapy on anxiety in patients with stroke, especially during the first stage of recovery.Method
This quantitative study featured a quasi-experimental design without a control group and was conducted in the stroke ward of a public hospital. The 33 respondents were selected via consecutive sampling. The data analysis was completed using the paired t-test.Results
The use of acceptance and commitment therapy significantly the signs and symptoms of anxiety in patients with stroke (p-value = < 0.005). Specifically, acceptance and commitment therapy effectively decreases anxiety levels from a moderate level to a mild level in clients who are recovering from stroke.Conclusions
Acceptance and commitment therapy is a recommended treatment for reducing anxiety in stroke patients. The design of this study can be further developed to include a control group. 相似文献4.
Objective
To identify a correlation between family support and maternal self-efficacy of adolescent mothers.Method
This cross-sectional study applied a consecutive sampling technique. The sample was 100 primiparous adolescent mothers. Instruments utilized were structured questionnaires, including a demographic questionnaire, Maternal Efficacy Questionnaire (MEQ), Postpartum Support System, Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), and Infant Characteristics Questionnaire (ICQ). The correlation of family support and maternal self-efficacy was analyzed using chi-square and logistic regression.Results
The results showed a significant correlation between family support and maternal self-efficacy of adolescent mothers. The family support that most influenced maternal self-efficacy of adolescent mothers was family instrument support, with Wald value of 34.720.Conclusions
Instrument support most affects maternal self-efficacy of adolescent mothers and encourages adolescents performing nurturing and mothering roles. 相似文献5.
Background
Caring for older people can be a burden for the family that led to mistreatment.Objective
To determine the relationship between the levels of family burden in caring for older people with the occurrence of mistreatment incidence. Design and participants: A cross sectional study design was conducted with 135 older people who live with their family as respondents.Setting
135 families with older people at Kelurahan/Village of Harjamukti area, Kecamatan/ District of Cimanggis, Depok city.Method
This study applied probability sampling technique with multistage cluster sampling.Results
Family characteristics show that almost half of older people were caring by family members (caregivers) who were aged 20-39 years, nearly all caregivers were women, family income mostly less than UMK, families mostly monosyllabic nation Betawi and caregivers mostly were their own child. Most of the families stated that no expense in caring for the older people (89.6%), but there are still families who feel the burden of caring. The highest type of mistreatmet of the older people is psychological mistreatments.Conclusions
From the statistical test obtained by p value equals to 0.553, it was concluded there was no correlation between the incidences of any family burden with mistreatment. 相似文献6.
Objective
Previous studies have indicated the parent-adolescent relationship has a correlation to adolescents’ premarital sex behavior risk. Therefore, the aim of this study was to discover the influence of parent-adolescent communication on adolescents’ risk of sexual issues.Method
This was a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. The population of this study consisted of students from a high school in Jakarta. A purposive sampling technique was used, which resulted in the selection of 253 students as samples. A PACS (Parent-Adolescent Communication Scale) questionnaire was applied.Results
The results showed that 59.3% of the adolescents studied were at risk for engaging in premarital sex, while the risk for adolescents with positive communication with their parents was 56.5%. Bivariate analysis also showed a significant correlation between gender and parent-adolescent communication and the risk of adolescent premarital sex behavior (α < 0.05). This study’s result was expected, and nurses can follow up by providing health education on how to maintain good communication between parents and adolescents.Conclusions
Communication must align with adolescents’ developmental tasks. Nurses can also create a promotion program on the topic of communication for parents and adolescents. 相似文献7.
Objective
To explore families’ experiences who use an authoritarian parenting style in caring for school-age children.Method
This was a qualitative study employing a phenomenological approach. The sampling method was to interview parents of school-age children living in the Central Maluku district in Indonesia.Results
The findings of this study generated the following themes: (1) parents strictly controlled their children to achieve the parental values and expectations, (2) children failed to meet the parental values and expectations, and (3) problems experienced by the children were the results of the parenting style.Conclusions
This study suggested nursing professionals provide adequate information for parents with respect to parenting styles that may facilitate the optimal growth and development of the children. Future studies pertinent to cultural factors associated with authoritarian parenting were also suggested to better understand the cultural context of this parenting style. 相似文献8.

Background
Care planning is an essential part of nursing practice. Formulating nursing care plans within the framework of standardised nursing language warrants further examination.Aim
The aim of this systematic review was examine the available literature related to nursing documentation and care plans, in relation to the impacts of using standardised nursing language.Methods
The electronic databases of Medline and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature were searched using predetermined search strategy. A narrative synthesis was undertaken.Findings
Of the 198 articles identified 21 articles were included in the review.Discussion
The examination of the available evidence suggests that a global and Australian difference in use of standardised nursing language in nursing care planning and documentation, including research related to nursing documentation exists.Conclusion
There are major benefits for systematically integrating nursing classification systems and standardised nursing language. Standardised nursing language is essential for the successful integration of nursing documentation into contemporary healthcare where electronic health care records will be the norm. 相似文献9.

Background
Scientific literature on blood donation is prevalently concentrated on adults, leaving out adolescents almost completely. While the latter represents “ideal” candidates, they constitute, however, the segment of the population least present among blood donors.Objectives
The present work, composed of two studies, proposes looking into the representations that the adolescents have of blood donation and give voice to the motivations that could persuade them to becoming donors once they reach the legal age for donation. Study I aims to investigate adolescents’ representations about the world of blood donation. Study II aims to investigate a) the underlying motivations for blood donations and b) the relationship between motivations and propensity to donate.Materials/Methods
This paper is based on a mixed methods research design. In Study I, five focus groups were conducted comprising a total of 25 adolescents; for Study II, a self-report questionnaire was administered to 285 adolescents.Results
Study I reveals a lack of information for everything regarding donation, something that produces fear, false beliefs, and an idealized image of the donor.Study II shows that for males, social motivations are fundamental while ego-protective motivations are deterrents, and that females are most impacted by understanding.Conclusion
The study shows how the adolescent population cannot be recruited in the same way as adults, and presents valuable points for those who finalize advertising campaigns for donor recruitment recruitment. 相似文献10.
Objective
As adolescents with cancer are at risk of experiencing spiritual distress, they tend to have unique spiritual needs. Spirituality plays a significant role for adolescents with cancer as it contributes to increased comfort and calmness, and better coping mechanisms when confronted with the illness, which indirectly improves the adolescent’s quality of life. This study aimed to explore spiritual experiences in adolescents with cancer.Method
A qualitative study using a phenomenology approach was conducted. Nine adolescents with chemotherapy-treated cancer were purposefully selected to be involved in this study. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis.Results
This study identified six spiritual themes in adolescents with cancer: a) accepting their illness; b) believing their illness in God’s will; c) improving spiritual practices; d) expressing empathy to parents; e) maintaining relationships with significant others, and f) achieving self-actualization.Conclusions
This study demonstrated that spirituality gave hope to adolescents by helping them to overcome existential problems related to cancer. We believe it is necessary for nurses to address the spiritual needs of adolescent with cancer as this will help these young people accept their condition with more grace and humility. 相似文献11.

Background
Before beginning a large and complex trial it is considered good practice to run a pilot study to assess the feasibility and acceptability so that quality is maintained and resources are not wasted.Objective
To assesses the feasibility and acceptability of procedures for TOPS: Trial Of Prevention Strategies for low back pain.Design
Randomised controlled pilot trial.Methods
This is a trial of an 8 week, physiotherapist-led group exercise and education program for preventing recurrence of low back pain (LBP) in those recently recovered from LBP. We assessed the feasibility of recruitment and data-collection procedures, acceptability of the trial interventions and loss-to-follow up.Results
The feasibility of recruitment, acceptability of the intervention and feasibility of physical activity data-collection procedures were all below anticipated levels. We enrolled 12 participants over 44 weeks, the adherence rate for the intervention group was 63% and valid physical activity data were obtained for 67% of the measurements. Follow-up methods for collection of LBP recurrence were successful with this information able to be collected for 100% of participants.Conclusion
In response to the pilot, modifications were made to the main trial protocol. We will increase recruitment by relaxing inclusion criteria and expanding recruitment sites to include workplaces, community centres and via social media. We will facilitate compliance by expanding treatment sites to provide more options for participants to access the program and we will limit missing data by checking the validity of baseline physical activity measures prior to enrolment.Trial registration: The study was prospectively registered with the Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ref: ACTRN12614000706673). 相似文献

Objectives
Patient education is a critical part of physiotherapy practice however an empirically derived set of competencies for its use does not exist. This study aimed to generate a set of competencies for patient education in physiotherapy using a consensus approach.Design and participants
A Delphi study with two rounds using a panel of expert physiotherapists within Australia was undertaken. In the first round, the panel of 12 specialist physiotherapists identified competencies required for patient education in the physiotherapy setting. Framework analysis was applied to develop a set of competencies that were assessed in the second round where ≥80% agreement of importance from the panel indicated consensus.Results
Response rates of specialist physiotherapists agreeing to participate were 67% for the first round and 100% for the second round. Analysis following the first round produced 25 competencies. The second round resulted in agreement on a final set of 22 competencies.Conclusions
This study developed a concise list of competencies for patient education with a high level of expert agreement. By identifying the key competencies in this area, there is potential to benchmark patient education training and assessment of physiotherapists for improved educational and professional outcomes. 相似文献14.

Introduction
The development of multiple breath washout (MBW) testing in respiratory disease highlights the need for increased awareness amongst respiratory physiotherapists and a potential opportunity for professional development in the use of an important outcome measure for clinical trials.Objectives
To rationalise how MBW may be a useful assessment tool for respiratory physiotherapists and to describe a local MBW training and certification programme for physiotherapists.Results
The respiratory Multidisciplinary Team in the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust (BHSCT) identified a need for MBW testing to be available to facilitate clinical research and assessment. A 2 day training programme consisting of prereading preparation, self-directed learning, theory presentations, practical demonstrations and hands-on practice was developed and delivered. All participants underwent a certification process.Conclusion
We have demonstrated the successful training and certification of clinical and research physiotherapists and encourage other respiratory physiotherapists to consider MBW test training. 相似文献16.
Objective
This study aimed to identify the association between stereotyping and professional intercollaborative practice.Method
This study used a cross-sectional analytical study involving physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and dietitians in a hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia, who were selected using the stratified random sampling method. Data was collected using the Student Stereotypes Rating Questionnaire (SSRQ) and the Assessment of Interprofessional Team Collaboration Scale (AITCS). The stereotyping level was analyzed based on a nine-point SSRQ, while interprofessional collaborative practice was scored based on partnership/shared decision-making, cooperation, and coordination.Results
Stereotyping was shown to significantly correlate with interprofessional collaborative practice as measured by the SSRQ and AITCS.Conclusions
Poor interprofessional collaborative practice in subscale partnership/decision-making was dominant. Also, low-rating stereotyping was shown to be dominant with poor interprofessional collaborative practice.Recommendation
The research recommends that health care providers improve partnership/ decision-making skills for better interprofessional collaboration. For further research, it's recommended to explore another barrier of interprofessional collaborative practice. 相似文献17.

Objective
To identify the precise ABO blood type subgroups with genotyping.Method
We screened ABO blood type from voluntary blood donors in our blood collection center. Samples were first examined with a routine serological method. Samples with ambiguous results were further examined with genotyping to identify ABO subgroups.Results
Two samples identified as AweakB by serology were considered to be A/B and B/B by PCR-SSP. However, the gene sequencing results revealed the precise subgroup to be CisAB01/B101 and CisAB05/B101, respectively.Conclusion
It may be difficult to identify non-typical AB patients with a routine serological method. Genotyping is a more precise method to identify blood subgroups. 相似文献18.
Objective
This quasi-experimental study compared the effectiveness of chewing gum and gargling with a saline solution as two types of intervention to reduce oral mucositis scores.Method
The sample consisted of 44 children who were divided into two groups, one of which chewed gum, and the other gargled with a saline solution. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the data.Results
There was a significant difference (p = 0.001) in post-intervention oral-mucositis scores. The significant mean difference between the groups indicated that the decreased oral mucositis scores for the chewing gum group was more substantial than for the group gargling with a saline solution (p = 0.001).Conclusions
The data showed that chewing gum is more effective than gargling with a saline solution, and it can be incorporated into the nursing protocol for treating pediatric cancer patients. 相似文献19.
