This study aimed to examine if exposure to undergraduate nursing informatics educational modalities (ie, lecture, laboratory, and clinical experiences) made a difference in the acceptance of information and communication technologies among nurses in the practice setting. Also, to examine if there was a relationship between selected demographic characteristics and nurses' acceptance of information and communication technologies, a cross-sectional design was used for this study. The Technology Acceptance Model was the theoretical framework for this study. The modified Nursing Acceptance Survey was used to collect data based on the Technology Acceptance Model. The results indicated that exposure to undergraduate informatics education significantly influenced nurses' acceptance of information and communication technologies. The results identified laboratory and clinical as educational modalities influencing nurses' acceptance of information and communication technologies. Demographic characteristics have no statistically significant relationship to nurses' acceptance of information and communication technologies. The results showed that undergraduate informatics education statistically influences nurses' acceptance of information and communication technologies. Findings provide insight into that undergraduate informatics education is important for accepting information and communication technologies among nurses in the practice setting. Also, the findings recognized laboratory and clinical experiences as effective learning modalities for accepting information and communication technologies.

The study aimed to determine the effects of breathing exercises using a breathing exercise device and virtual reality applications during pregnancy and labor on labor pain, duration, and birth satisfaction. This study was planned as a single-blind randomized controlled experimental study. The study was conducted with a total of 114 pregnant women who were randomized between September 2022 and May 2023 at a maternity hospital in Southeastern Anatolia, Turkey. The participants were divided into three groups: the breathing exercise group (39), the virtual reality group (37), and the control group (38). The data were collected by using the descriptive information form, labor observation form, visual analog scale, and Birth Satisfaction Scale. The incidence of average pain scores and labor duration were lower in the intervention groups when compared with the control group (P < .05). The average birth satisfaction scores of pregnant women in both experimental groups were determined to be higher than those in the control group (P < .05). The research results show that breathing exercises using a breathing exercise device during pregnancy and labor and virtual reality applications shorten the duration of labor, reduce labor pain, and increase birth satisfaction.

Heart disease can lead to physical disability and mortality, ranking second among the top 10 causes of death according to the Ministry of Health and Welfare. This study aims to examine the impact of the interactive assessment application on patients' public health knowledge. In this study, a single-group pretest and posttest experimental design was adopted. Thirty-six hospitalized patients diagnosed with heart failure participated in the pretest and posttest assessments. The findings demonstrate that the developed application led to an increase in the number of recorded physiological measurements, effectively enabling patients to manage their blood pressure. The heart failure self-management application was observed to improve patients' understanding and awareness of heart failure disease, improving their self-management skills.

The purpose of this scoping review was to identify and summarize how technology can promote patient participation in the rehabilitation process in hip replacement. We conducted a scoping review following the steps outlined by the Joanna Briggs Institute. The PRISMA Checklist (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) was utilized to systematically organize the gathered information. A thorough search of articles was performed on PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL databases for all publications up to December 2022. Twenty articles were included in this study. Various technologies, such as mobile applications, Web sites, and platforms, offer interactive approaches to facilitate total hip replacement rehabilitation. The analyzed studies were based on the rehabilitation of total hip arthroplasty, which in most of them was developed in mobile applications and Web sites. The studies identified reflect trends in the application of digital health technologies to promote patient engagement in the rehabilitation process and provide risk monitoring and patient education.

Technological developments and nursing shortages have become global trends. To solve the problem of shortage of healthcare professionals, technology may be used as a backup. Nurses constitute the largest working group in the healthcare system. Therefore, nurses are very important to the success of implementing digitization in hospitals. This cross-sectional study used the characteristics and adoption roles of innovation diffusion theory to understand technology use within the organization. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and open-ended questions from March 21 to May 31, 2022, in two hospitals in Taiwan. In total, 159 nurses agreed to participate in the study. The results of this study revealed that observability, simplicity, advantage, trialability, and compatibility positively improved the acceptance of digital nursing technology. In the distribution of users' innovative roles, early adopters had a significant impact on innovation characteristics and technology acceptance. Nurses in acute and critical care units perceived a greater comparative advantage and trial availability of digital nursing technology use than did those in general wards and outpatient clinics. In addition, based on user opinions and suggestions, the development of smart healthcare and the use of digital technology are expected to improve the quality of nursing care.

Nurses faced numerous challenges during the pandemic, particularly with the increased burden of electronic documentation. Surges in patient volume and visits led to rapid changes in nursing documentation, prompting diverse responses from regulatory and healthcare organizations. Nurses expressed safety concerns and struggled with changes, calling for national standards and regulatory support. Policy relaxations, such as the 1135 Waiver, sparked debate on the future of nursing care plan documentation. Using mixed-methods exploratory design, the study identified modifications of nursing documentation during crises, commonalities in documentation burden reduction for applicability beyond pandemics, and consensus on the definition of "surge." Documentation patterns were assessed from February to November 2022, involving 175 North American nurse leaders and informaticists. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, thematic analysis, and Pearson correlation coefficient. Significant differences were found between rural and urban settings (P = .02), with urban areas showing higher odds of changes to care plans (odds ratio, 4.889; 95% confidence interval, 1.27-18.78). Key findings highlighted the persistence of postcrisis documentation changes and varied definitions of surge criteria based on organizational leadership, policy, and mandates. The study yielded insights for modifying documentation, offering policy recommendations, and emphasizing ongoing collaboration and evidence-based approaches for future nursing practices.

The integration of artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT into educational frameworks marks a pivotal transformation in teaching. This quasi-experimental study, conducted in September 2023, aimed to evaluate the effects of artificial intelligence-assisted learning on nursing students' ethical decision-making and clinical reasoning. A total of 99 nursing students enrolled in a pediatric nursing course were randomly divided into two groups: an experimental group that utilized ChatGPT and a control group that used traditional textbooks. The Mann-Whitney U test was employed to assess differences between the groups in two primary outcomes: (a) ethical standards, focusing on the understanding and applying ethical principles, and (b) nursing processes, emphasizing critical thinking skills and integrating evidence-based knowledge. The control group outperformed the experimental group in ethical standards and demonstrated better clinical reasoning in nursing processes. Reflective essays revealed that the experimental group reported lower reliability but higher time efficiency. Despite artificial intelligence's ability to offer diverse perspectives, the findings highlight that educators must supplement artificial intelligence technology with strategies that enhance critical thinking, careful data selection, and source verification. This study suggests a hybrid educational approach combining artificial intelligence with traditional learning methods to bolster nursing students' decision-making processes and clinical reasoning skills.

This study aimed to investigate the association between Korean adults' electronic health literacy and active participation in health decision-making while communicating with healthcare providers. A total of 421 adults 18 years and older were recruited from a survey panel developed by a survey company and completed an online survey asking about individual characteristics and electronic health literacy. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent-samples t tests, analysis of variance, and binomial logistic regression analysis. In results, for every one-unit increase in electronic health literacy, the rate of active participation in health decision-making was likely to increase by 3.62 times compared with the rate of passive participation in health decision-making. It was also likely to increase in those with a college degree or higher, those who used both Web sites and YouTube, those who perceived online health information to be useful, those who actively participated as a patient, and those with a desire to actively participate as a patient. To encourage active participation in health-related situations or decision-making processes, educational programs or interventions to improve individuals' electronic health literacy are needed. Healthcare providers must ensure that individuals feel comfortable expressing their preferences, needs, and values.

Addressing social determinants of health in nursing care is important for improving health outcomes and reducing health inequities. Using standardized nursing terminologies to capture this information generates sharable data that can be used to achieve these goals and create new knowledge. The purpose of this integrative review was to examine use of standardized nursing terminologies for collecting social determinants of health data in nursing research and practice. The CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Web of Science databases were searched using the terms "social determinants of health" [and] "nursing" [and] "standardized terminology" or names for each of the 12 American Nurses Association-approved terminologies. Limiters included peer-reviewed and English language. After removal of duplicates, 120 articles were found and screened for relevance and quality using a three-step process. This yielded a final sample of seven articles. Article data were extracted and analyzed for themes. In all articles, retrospective, observational, or secondary analysis research designs were used to analyze previously collected data from large, deidentified datasets or research studies. The Omaha System was the only standardized nursing terminology represented in the sample. All operational definitions of social determinants of health included behavioral items. In most studies, a social determinants of health index score was calculated, and data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and visualization methods. Results reported across the articles were diverse; some themes were identified. This review revealed published literature on this topic is limited. More quality improvement and multisite studies that examine the use of standardized nursing terminologies by nurses to collect and use social determinants of health data are needed.
