Background

Global crises, such as pandemics and armed conflicts, highlight the need for resilient healthcare systems. Nurse middle managers play a critical meso-level role in bridging frontline staff and senior leadership, yet their crisis experiences remain underexplored.

Aims

(1) To identify coping strategies used by nurse middle managers and their impact on bedside nurses' resilience during crises; (2) to explore how prior crises, such as COVID-19, shaped their approaches, and (3) to examine contextual factors influencing their ability to anticipate, cope, and adapt.

Methods

A descriptive qualitative design was employed, involving semi-structured interviews with 17 nurse middle managers from diverse healthcare sectors. Data were analyzed using Duchek's Organizational Resilience Model, focusing on anticipation, coping, and adaptation.

Results

Nurse middle managers play a crucial role in organizational resilience by acting as intermediaries between frontline staff and senior leadership. Their prior experiences with crises, such as COVID-19, strengthened their ability to manage uncertainty, problem-solve, and support their teams. Key resilience-enhancing strategies included fostering team cohesion, adapting workflows in real time, and advocating for staff well-being. However, systemic challenges, such as resource shortages and gaps in structured emergency preparedness, hindered their effectiveness.

Conclusions

This study underscores the pivotal role of nurse middle managers in fostering organizational resilience during healthcare crises. Their leadership, adaptability, and capacity to support teams through uncertainty were instrumental in maintaining care continuity. However, systemic challenges—including limited preparedness frameworks, ethical ambiguities, and resource constraints—hindered their effectiveness. These findings highlight the urgent need for structured crisis leadership training, investment in mental health support, and inclusive preparedness planning. Strengthening these areas can enhance organizational readiness, reduce burnout, and reinforce the resilience of both the workforce and the healthcare system at large.
流行病和武装冲突等全球危机突出表明需要有复原力的卫生保健系统。护士中层管理人员在沟通一线员工和高层领导方面发挥着关键的中间作用,但他们的危机经历仍未得到充分探讨。目的(1)了解护士中层管理人员的危机应对策略及其对床边护士心理弹性的影响;(2)探索之前的危机(如COVID-19)如何影响他们的方法;(3)研究影响他们预测、应对和适应能力的环境因素。方法采用描述性定性设计,对来自不同医疗保健部门的17名护士中层管理人员进行半结构化访谈。采用Duchek的组织弹性模型对数据进行分析,重点关注预期、应对和适应。结果护士中层管理人员作为一线员工与高层领导之间的中介,在组织弹性中起着至关重要的作用。他们之前应对新冠肺炎等危机的经验增强了他们管理不确定性、解决问题和支持团队的能力。增强复原力的关键战略包括培养团队凝聚力、实时调整工作流程和倡导员工福利。然而,资源短缺和结构性应急准备方面的差距等系统性挑战阻碍了其有效性。结论本研究强调了护理中层管理人员在医疗危机中培养组织弹性的关键作用。他们的领导能力、适应能力和在不确定性中支持团队的能力有助于保持护理的连续性。然而,系统性挑战——包括有限的准备框架、伦理模糊性和资源限制——阻碍了它们的有效性。这些发现突出表明,迫切需要有组织的危机领导力培训、对心理健康支持的投资以及包容性的准备计划。加强这些领域可以提高组织的准备程度,减少倦怠,并增强劳动力和整个医疗保健系统的弹性。

Background

Older people residing in aged care homes often have complex health needs that can lead to hospitalisations, some of which are potentially avoidable. To address this, nurse-led or nurse-involved interventions have been implemented to reduce unnecessary hospital presentations.

Objective

To review and synthesise evidence on the impact of nurse-led or nurse-involved hospital avoidance outreach interventions on health service use for aged care home residents.

Design

A mixed-methods systematic review guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute framework.

Data sources

Databases searched included Ovid Medline, Scopus, and the Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL).

Methods

An initial search was conducted in October 2022 to identify peer-reviewed studies published in English between January 2011 to October 2022, with an update in August 2025. Titles, abstracts, and full text selections were screened by two or more independent reviewers and assessed for methodological quality. A convergent segregated approach was used for data synthesis and integration.

Findings

Twenty-four studies met the inclusion criteria: 16 quantitative, seven qualitative and one mixed-method study. The majority were conducted in Australia (n = 21), with others in Finland, Denmark and France. Nurse-led or nurse-involved hospital avoidance interventions were associated with reductions in emergency department presentations, re-presentations and hospital admissions via the emergency department. Four studies reported cost savings, although findings were heterogeneous. Health professionals reported positive experiences, but the perspectives of aged care home residents and their families were underrepresented. Key enablers of intervention success included staff support, leadership, rapid response outreach interventions, technological infrastructure, and outreach team expertise. Operational barriers include inconsistent guidelines and policies, limited service hours, and challenges with technology implementation.

Conclusion

This review highlights growing evidence base supporting nurse-led and nurse-involved outreach interventions to avoid hospitalisation for unwell aged care home residents. The enablers and barriers identified in this systematic review offer valuable insights for clinicians and researchers planning or refining hospital avoidance initiatives.

Registration

The protocol for this systematic review was registered at the PROSPERO register on 31 December 2022 [CRD42022385659].
居住在养老院的老年人往往有复杂的健康需求,可能导致住院,其中一些可能是可以避免的。为了解决这个问题,已经实施了护士主导或护士参与的干预措施,以减少不必要的医院就诊。

Background

Non-suicidal self-injury is highly prevalent among adolescents with mood disorders. It not only severely jeopardizes their physical and mental health but also imposes a substantial burden on families. Nurses working in psychiatric settings frequently report challenges in providing care to these young people, often experiencing negative emotional impacts and occupational burnout. The personal experiences of non-suicidal self-injury, and how they intersect with the broader socio-cultural context to influence behavior in this population, are not well understood, thereby hindering the development of effective nursing interventions.

Objective

This study applied the Benefits and Barriers Model to elucidate the dynamic interplay of motivations, barriers, and contextual factors underlying non-suicidal self-injury among Chinese adolescents with mood disorders, with a specific focus on its cultural relevance.

Methods

An exploratory qualitative design was adopted. Eighteen adolescents with mood disorders and experience of non-suicidal self-injury were recruited from a tertiary psychiatric hospital in mainland China. Semi-structured interviews were conducted between January 2024 and January 2025. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis.

Results

Three core dimensions of perceived benefits were identified: release of negative emotions, pleasurable experience following stress reduction, and escape from interpersonal and communication difficulties. Three primary categories of barriers emerged: internal psychological resources, external emotional support, and awareness of social norms. Key contextual factors that intersect with these benefits and barriers were identified as emotional state, the quality of parent–child relationships, social adaptation strategies, and involvement in online communities. Distinctive socio-cultural contexts were also observed, including a highly competitive academic environment, shifting parent–child dynamics and relational insecurities, and cultural traditions prioritizing introspection and emotional restraint.

Conclusions

This study examined non-suicidal self-injury among adolescents with mood disorders through a benefits–barriers framework, characterizing it as a dynamic adaptation shaped by the interplay of perceived benefits, barriers, and contextual factors. The findings highlight the need for culturally responsive, systemic nursing interventions that foster emotional regulation, interpersonal trust, and environmental support across individual, familial, and societal levels. This holistic approach, grounded in the participants' lived experiences, provides a critical foundation for mitigating self-injury risk in this population.
非自杀性自伤在患有情绪障碍的青少年中非常普遍。它不仅严重危害他们的身心健康,而且给家庭带来沉重的负担。在精神病院工作的护士经常报告说,在为这些年轻人提供护理方面存在挑战,他们经常经历负面的情绪影响和职业倦怠。非自杀性自伤的个人经历,以及它们如何与更广泛的社会文化背景交叉影响这一人群的行为,都没有得到很好的理解,从而阻碍了有效护理干预措施的发展。

Background

Occupational fatigue among healthcare professionals is a complex, multifaceted issue associated with increased likelihood of medical error, compromised patient safety and negative impacts on staff mental and physical health. While safety-critical sectors such as aviation and rail have implemented formal systems to manage fatigue-related risks, it remains unclear whether similarly structured approaches exist or operate effectively within healthcare.

Objective

This scoping literature review aimed to examine the current state of knowledge regarding fatigue risk management strategies and countermeasures in healthcare and explore the barriers and facilitators to their implementation. This review sought to highlight gaps and provide insights into advancing fatigue risk management practices within the healthcare context.

Methods

A systematic literature search to June 2025 was conducted across Medline, CINAHL Ultimate, and Scopus databases. Search terms were developed based on key concepts related to healthcare professions and fatigue risk management. Studies were included if they examined fatigue risk management strategies, countermeasures or organisational perceptions of fatigue in healthcare.

Results

Thirty-two studies met the inclusion criteria, including quantitative (n = 18), qualitative (n = 9), and mixed-methods (n = 5) designs. Findings were grouped into conceptual categories based on the study focus and/or intervention type. The majority of studies (n = 18) evaluated isolated interventions including informal/individual fatigue management strategies, napping, use of biomathematical models to predict fatigue risk, fatigue education, and the impact of scheduling practices. Only two studies reported on comprehensive, multi-component programmes. Nine studies explored staff perceptions and attitudes towards fatigue-related strategies, and three examined broader organisational understanding or design principles related to fatigue management. Key barriers to implementation included normalised cultural attitudes towards fatigue, limited managerial support, and inadequate infrastructure. Facilitators included improved staffing levels, better workload distribution, supportive leadership, and the development of non-punitive safety cultures that encouraged fatigue reporting.

Conclusions

Despite growing awareness of the risks associated with occupational fatigue, healthcare systems continue to rely on fragmented, informal, and largely individual approaches to fatigue management. In contrast to other high-risk industries, healthcare has yet to embed fatigue management within formal safety governance structures. Advancing practice in this area requires a shift towards system-level thinking that is supported by organisational leadership, effective fatigue monitoring, and workforce education. Additionally, this shift al
背景医疗保健专业人员的职业疲劳是一个复杂的、多方面的问题,与医疗差错的可能性增加、患者安全受到损害以及对工作人员身心健康产生负面影响有关。虽然航空和铁路等安全关键部门已经实施了正式的系统来管理疲劳相关风险,但尚不清楚在医疗保健领域是否存在类似的结构化方法或是否有效运作。目的本文献综述旨在研究医疗保健中疲劳风险管理策略和对策的知识现状,并探讨其实施的障碍和促进因素。本综述旨在突出差距,并为在医疗保健环境中推进疲劳风险管理实践提供见解。方法系统检索Medline、CINAHL Ultimate和Scopus数据库至2025年6月的文献。搜索词是根据与医疗保健专业和疲劳风险管理相关的关键概念开发的。如果研究涉及疲劳风险管理策略、对策或医疗保健中组织对疲劳的看法,则将其纳入研究。结果32项研究符合纳入标准,包括定量(n = 18)、定性(n = 9)和混合方法(n = 5)设计。研究结果根据研究重点和/或干预类型分为概念类别。大多数研究(n = 18)评估了孤立的干预措施,包括非正式/个人疲劳管理策略、午睡、使用生物数学模型预测疲劳风险、疲劳教育和调度实践的影响。只有两项研究报告了综合的多部分方案。九项研究探讨了员工对疲劳相关策略的看法和态度,三项研究考察了与疲劳管理相关的更广泛的组织理解或设计原则。实施的主要障碍包括对疲劳的常态化文化态度、有限的管理支持和基础设施不足。促进因素包括改进人员配备水平、更好的工作量分配、支持性领导以及鼓励疲劳报告的非惩罚性安全文化的发展。尽管越来越多的人意识到与职业疲劳相关的风险,但医疗保健系统仍然依赖于零碎的、非正式的、很大程度上是个人的疲劳管理方法。与其他高风险行业相比,医疗保健尚未将疲劳管理纳入正式的安全治理结构。推进这一领域的实践需要向系统级思维转变,这需要组织领导、有效的疲劳监测和劳动力教育的支持。此外,这种转变还需要重新定位文化,认识到疲劳是一种可预测和可管理的安全风险,需要组织问责,而不是个人的弹性,以优先考虑员工的健康和患者的安全。

<div><h3>Background</h3><div>Paediatric burn injuries pose a critical global health challenge, affecting millions of children annually. Beyond the immediate physical harm, burns disrupt developmental trajectories, leaving enduring psychological, physical, and relational impacts as children transition into adulthood. While advancements in acute care have improved survival rates, understanding the dyadic recovery process between parent and children remains underexplored. The prolonged and complex nature of post-burn recovery necessitates sustained caregiver support, emphasising the need to examine how parent–child dyads experience and collectively navigate this journey.</div></div><div><h3>Objective</h3><div>To generate a theory explaining how parent–child dyads experience and navigate through the post-burn recovery process.</div></div><div><h3>Design</h3><div>Constructivist grounded theory.</div></div><div><h3>Participants</h3><div>Paediatric burn survivors with a discharge status of up to 1 month or more and their informal caregivers who were present throughout the period of hospitalisation.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>Initial purposive and subsequent theoretical sampling approaches were employed. Data were collected through face-to-face dyadic interviews at mutually agreed time and locations, supplemented by field notes. Concurrent data analysis utilised constant comparative approach to iteratively refine emerging codes and categories. To ensure congruence with the dyadic interviewing approach, the constant comparative approach employed did not only focus on uncovering categories, but also the content (emerging narratives) and interaction (how parents and children communicated noting areas of convergence and divergence in their narratives).</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Twenty-three (23) parent–child dyads participated in the study. The children and parents (19 mothers and 4 fathers) are aged 10–16 years and 33–49 years respectively. The core category, <em>Coming to Terms</em>, conceptualises the dyadic recovery journey from injury occurrence to acceptance and adaptation. Three interrelated categories characterised this process: (1) <em>Being with Each Other in a Trauma Bubble</em> (mutual emotional entrapment in acute distress), (2) <em>Living with the Scars</em> (physical and psychological marks shaping identity), and (3) <em>Navigating the Recovery Maze</em> (collaborative adaptation to post-burn realities). The <em>Theory of Coming to Terms</em> underscores post-burn recovery as an emotionally fraught negotiation marked by asymmetrical burdens for dyads, requiring reconciliation with lasting physical, psychological, and relational consequences.

儿科烧伤是一项重大的全球健康挑战,每年影响数百万儿童。除了直接的身体伤害外,烧伤还会破坏发育轨迹,在儿童成年后留下持久的心理、身体和人际关系影响。虽然急性护理的进步提高了生存率,但了解父母和儿童之间的二元恢复过程仍未得到充分探索。烧伤后恢复的长期和复杂的性质需要持续的护理人员的支持,强调需要检查亲子二人如何经历和共同导航这一旅程。目的建立一个理论来解释亲子对烧伤后恢复过程的体验和导航。设计建构主义扎根理论。参与者:出院时间长达1个月或更长时间的儿科烧伤幸存者及其在整个住院期间在场的非正式护理人员。方法采用初步目的抽样法和后续理论抽样法。数据是在双方商定的时间和地点通过面对面的双向访谈收集的,并辅以实地记录。并发数据分析利用持续的比较方法迭代地改进新出现的代码和类别。为了确保与二元访谈方法的一致性,所采用的持续比较方法不仅关注揭示类别,而且关注内容(新出现的叙述)和互动(父母和孩子如何沟通,注意他们叙述中的趋同和分歧领域)。结果共23例亲子对参与研究。孩子和父母(19名母亲和4名父亲)的年龄分别为10-16岁和33-49岁。核心类别,适应,概念化了从受伤发生到接受和适应的二元恢复过程。这一过程有三个相互关联的类别:(1)在创伤泡沫中彼此陪伴(在急性痛苦中相互情感困),(2)带着伤疤生活(塑造身份的生理和心理标记),以及(3)在恢复迷宫中导航(协作适应烧伤后的现实)。和解理论强调,烧伤后的恢复是一种充满情感的谈判,其特征是对两个人的不对称负担,需要协调持久的身体、心理和关系后果。尽管恢复过程的大多数方面都显示了二人组之间的共性,但在对待伤疤的态度上却出现了显著的分歧:父母和年龄较大的孩子往往会隐藏这些伤疤,而年幼的孩子往往会选择公开地展示它们。结论:研究结果强调了烧伤后恢复的二元相关性,提倡优先考虑客观临床结果和主观体验的康复框架。以家庭为中心的做法对于整合对儿童和照料者的持续支持至关重要。

Data were collected through face-to-face dyadic interviews at mutually agreed time and locations, supplemented by field notes. Concurrent data analysis utilised constant comparative approach to iteratively refine emerging codes and categories. To ensure congruence with the dyadic interviewing approach, the constant comparative approach employed did not only focus on uncovering categories, but also the content (emerging narratives) and interaction (how parents and children communicated noting areas of convergence and divergence in their narratives).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;Twenty-three (23) parent–child dyads participated in the study.

Background

Social participation significantly promotes health in older adults with chronic multimorbidity. However, their needs and characteristics of social participation demonstrate substantial heterogeneity due to multidimensional influences. Current standardized community service models inadequately address this population's diverse needs. User personas, as a group classification model derived from integrating the characteristics of target populations along specific dimensions, can provide a basis for addressing the current challenge in which standardized community services fail to meet the diverse needs of this population.

Objective

To characterize the social participation behaviors of older adults with multimorbidity, construct representative user personas, and establish foundations for personalized community interventions.

Methods

From November 2024 to May 2025, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 32 multimorbid older adults through purposive sampling at two community health centers in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China. Interview data were analyzed using content analysis to identify persona label dimensions. Based on these dimensions, user personas were constructed with manual extraction and clustering of individual characteristics. The personas were visualized through a combination of word clouds and tables.

Results

Six key dimensions profiling social participation emerged: daily activities, physical health, psychological state, interpersonal relationships, participation in organized activities, and community environment concerns. Based on these dimensions, five distinct user personas were identified: the care-dependent withdrawers, the family-depleting strugglers, the functionally-compensated stabilizers, the self-pleasure enjoyers and the value-creation builders.

Conclusion

Multidimensional factors, including physical, psychological, familial and environmental, shape heterogeneous social participation patterns among multimorbid older adults. Future policies and interventions should be differentiated based on persona characteristics, integrating medical, psychological and environmental support to enhance the social participation level and quality of life of older adults with chronic multimorbidity.
社会参与可显著促进患有慢性多种疾病的老年人的健康。然而,由于多方面的影响,他们的社会参与需求和特征表现出很大的异质性。目前标准化的社区服务模式不能充分满足这一人群的多样化需求。用户角色作为一种根据具体维度综合目标人口特征而得出的群体分类模型,可以为解决标准化社区服务无法满足这一人口多样化需求的当前挑战提供基础。目的了解老年多病患者的社会参与行为特征,构建具有代表性的用户角色,为个性化社区干预奠定基础。方法从2024年11月至2025年5月,我们在中国广东省广州市的两个社区卫生中心通过目的抽样对32名多病老年人进行了半结构化访谈。使用内容分析来分析访谈数据,以确定角色标签的维度。基于这些维度,通过人工提取和聚类的方法构建用户角色。人物角色通过词云和表格的组合可视化。结果分析了社会参与的六个关键维度:日常活动、身体健康、心理状态、人际关系、组织活动参与和社区环境关注。基于这些维度,我们确定了五种不同的用户角色:依赖照顾的退出者、破坏家庭的挣扎者、功能补偿的稳定者、自我愉悦者和价值创造建设者。结论身体、心理、家庭和环境等多维因素影响了多发病老年人的社会参与模式。未来的政策和干预措施应根据个人特征加以区分,综合医疗、心理和环境支持,以提高患有慢性多重疾病的老年人的社会参与水平和生活质量。

Background

Caring for unstable patients in a general ward is a challenging task for nurses and impacts patients' safety. To assist nurses in detecting and managing patient deterioration, the nurse-led Rapid Response Team has been implemented worldwide for over 25 years with divergent results regarding reduced patient mortality, cardiac arrest rates, and admissions for intensive care. To develop new initiatives targeting well-documented challenges embedded in using the nurse-led Rapid Response Team, research-based knowledge from a broader perspective on the Rapid Response Team is crucial. This study evaluated how and for whom the nurse-led Rapid Response Team works.

Objective

To test initial and alternative program theories of the nurse-led Rapid Response Team in acute care hospitals and further refine the program theories of this complex health care intervention.

Design

A realist evaluation.

Methods

A four-stage cycle process was applied, involving a synthesis of literature of the Rapid Response Team published between 2014-24, and empirical data from six qualitative studies, serving as analytical tools. To explore multiple stakeholders' perceptions of the Rapid Response Team a variety of data-collection methods including participant observations, focus group interviews, and individual interviews were used in the qualitative studies. Intensive care and general ward nurses, physicians in clinical and coordinating roles, and multiple hospital managers across various levels at three acute care hospital in three Danish regions were involved in the six qualitative studies.

Findings

The fourth stage of the realist evaluation resulted in a refined program theory stating, “If Rapid Response Team-nurses use their intensive care skills and competences and collaborate amiably, creating a respectful and calm atmosphere whilst also capturing the needs of both nurses and patients, then the role as a Rapid Response Team-nurse is fulfilled and responsibility between the involved parties is shared. General ward nurses will then choose to call the team for assistance and Rapid Response Team-nurses will choose to engage in future Rapid Response Team calls, which will subsequently lead to clinical actions being taken, patients being helped, and general ward nurses feeling secure whilst also learning new skills”.

Conclusion

The nurse-led Rapid Response Team is perceived to work for patients, general ward nurses, Rapid Response Team-nurses, and the organization, due to Rapid Response Team-nurses' skills, the respect between nurses, and the essential collaboration inherent in intra-professional nursing teamwork across nursing positions and working areas. The primary responsibility for this collaboration lies with the individual Rapid Response Team-nurse and the Rapid Response Team-coordinator.
在普通病房照顾不稳定的病人对护士来说是一项具有挑战性的任务,并影响患者的安全。为了帮助护士发现和管理患者病情恶化,护士领导的快速反应小组在全球范围内实施了25年以上,在降低患者死亡率、心脏骤停率和重症监护入院率方面取得了不同的成果。为了制定新的举措,针对使用护士领导的快速反应小组所面临的充分记录的挑战,从更广泛的角度对快速反应小组进行基于研究的知识至关重要。这项研究评估了护士领导的快速反应小组如何工作以及为谁工作。目的对急症护理医院护士主导快速反应小组的初始和备选方案理论进行检验,进一步完善这一复杂卫生保健干预方案理论。设计一个现实的评估。方法采用四阶段循环流程,综合2014-24年快速反应小组发表的文献和6项定性研究的实证数据,作为分析工具。为了探讨多个利益相关者对快速反应小组的看法,在定性研究中使用了各种数据收集方法,包括参与者观察、焦点小组访谈和个人访谈。丹麦三个地区的三家急症护理医院的重症监护和普通病房护士、临床和协调医生以及不同级别的多名医院管理人员参与了六项定性研究。现实主义评估的第四阶段产生了一个精炼的程序理论,“如果快速反应小组护士使用他们的重症监护技能和能力,友好合作,创造尊重和平静的氛围,同时也捕捉护士和病人的需求,那么作为快速反应小组护士的角色就得到了履行,相关各方之间的责任也得到了分担。”普通病房护士将选择呼叫团队寻求帮助,快速反应小组护士将选择参与未来的快速反应团队呼叫,这将随后导致采取临床行动,患者得到帮助,普通病房护士在学习新技能的同时感到安全。”结论由于快速反应小组护士的技能、护士之间的尊重以及跨护理岗位和工作领域的专业护理团队内在的必要协作,护士领导的快速反应小组被认为是为患者、普通病房护士、快速反应小组护士和组织服务的。这种合作的主要责任在于个人快速反应小组护士和快速反应小组协调员。

镰状细胞病是最常见的遗传性单基因血液疾病之一。镰状细胞病患者会经历急性疼痛和长期并发症,导致影响其生活质量的合并症。尽管镰状细胞病患者的生活受到这种疾病的深刻影响,但姑息治疗的报告和利用都不足。目的综合已发表的关于成人严重镰状细胞病患者姑息治疗需求和经验的主要证据。设计混合方法系统叙述回顾。方法检索Medline、PsycINFO、Embase和CINHAL数据库,检索时间为建库至2024年4月。入选标准为患有严重镰状细胞病的成年人,年龄≥18岁,疾病严重程度分类系统定义为II类(中度严重)和III类(最严重)。定性和定量研究的数据采用基于数据的收敛综合分析。采用最合适的框架综合方法,将世界卫生组织对姑息治疗的定义作为先验框架。结果被映射到Bronfenbrenner生态模型中,以追求不同环境系统之间需求之间的相互作用。结果23项研究符合条件(12项定性研究,11项定量研究)。在姑息治疗的五个领域以及一个名为使用医疗保健服务的体验的额外领域,需求都很明显:i)身体需求包括主要以疼痛为重点的令人痛苦的症状(n = 22项研究)。疼痛表现为急性和慢性,影响一个人生活的各个方面;(二)心理需求包括与疾病本身有关的抑郁、自杀意念、应对和耻辱,以及对阿片类药物治疗疼痛的需求;iii)社会需求包括对社会生活、功能、人际关系、就业和教育的影响;iv)灵性在患有复杂慢性疾病时的使用;v)家庭照顾者的需求和提供的支持包括家庭有时无法支持该人的感觉,以及vi)获得医疗保健服务的经历,包括对医疗保健提供者缺乏信任。结论镰状细胞病重症患者的综合姑息治疗需求是相互联系、相互影响的。这受到疾病本身的不可预测性及其慢性并发症(如与慢性伤口一起生活和处理)的影响。与该疾病相关的污名以多种方式影响患者,特别是延迟就医、工作场所歧视和社会孤立。镰状细胞病是一种多方面的复杂疾病。管理需要一种动态的整体方法,将人置于疾病之前,并强调家庭参与。普洛斯彼罗注册:(CRD42023392072)。

Purpose

To map the evidence on nurses' roles and contributions in deprescribing within the multidisciplinary team across all clinical settings.

Methods

This scoping review was conducted using Arksey and O'Malley's framework and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology, and reported by the PRISMA-ScR 2020 checklist. A systematic search was conducted across CINAHL, Embase, MEDLINE (Ovid), Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar, with no time restrictions. Studies in English and Italian were included if they explored the role of nurses in deprescribing in older adults (≥ 65 years) across hospital, home, or community settings. A wide range of study designs was considered, including empirical studies, reviews, and gray literature.

Results

28 studies were included in the review. Nurses played key roles in deprescribing through medication review, adherence assessment, detection of adverse drug effects or drug–drug interactions, patient education, and monitoring. Nurse-led interventions, conducted independently or in collaboration with the multidisciplinary team, were effective in reducing potentially inappropriate medications and improving adherence as primary outcomes. Key facilitators of nurses' views on deprescribing included strong interdisciplinary collaboration, training, and use of decision-support tools. Limited resources, a lack of trust in medication counseling, fragmented care, and patient-related difficulties were the main obstacles.

Conclusions

The changing and crucial role that nurses play in the deprescribing process is highlighted in this scoping review. The medication safety of older adults necessitates empowering nurses through organizational frameworks, technology support, and training. There is a clear need for stronger, high-quality evidence, including randomized controlled trials and rigorously designed implementation studies, to assess outcomes and guide the integration of nurse-led deprescribing interventions into everyday clinical practice.

目的在所有临床环境中,绘制护士在多学科团队中描述处方的角色和贡献的证据。方法采用Arksey和O'Malley的框架和乔安娜布里格斯研究所(JBI)的方法进行范围审查,并通过PRISMA-ScR 2020检查表进行报告。系统检索了CINAHL、Embase、MEDLINE (Ovid)、Web of Science、Scopus和谷歌Scholar,没有时间限制。在医院、家庭或社区环境中,如果研究护士在老年人(≥65岁)开处方中的作用,则纳入英语和意大利语研究。我们考虑了广泛的研究设计,包括实证研究、综述和灰色文献。结果共纳入28项研究。护士通过药物审查、依从性评估、发现药物不良反应或药物相互作用、患者教育和监测,在开处方方面发挥了关键作用。护士主导的干预,独立进行或与多学科团队合作,在减少潜在的不适当药物和提高依从性作为主要结果方面是有效的。护士对处方的看法的主要促进因素包括强有力的跨学科合作、培训和决策支持工具的使用。资源有限、对药物咨询缺乏信任、支离破碎的护理和患者相关的困难是主要障碍。结论本综述强调了护士在处方过程中所起的重要作用。老年人的用药安全需要通过组织框架、技术支持和培训来授权护士。显然需要更有力、高质量的证据,包括随机对照试验和严格设计的实施研究,以评估结果,并指导将护士主导的处方化干预措施纳入日常临床实践。RegistrationProtocol注册在开放科学框架上(doi:10.17605/OSF.IO/C49BU)。
