This study, conducted using the descriptive-correlational model, aims to evaluate the content, reliability, and quality of insulin pen injection videos on YouTube. The video-sharing platform YouTube was searched with the keyword "insulin pen injection." Of the 101 relevant videos, 49 were included in the study. Video contents were evaluated independently by the "Insulin Pen Injection Guide Form," their reliability by the "DISCERN Questionnaire," and their quality by the "Global Quality Scale." Of the 49 videos that met the inclusion criteria, 55.1% contained useful information, and 44.8% contained misleading information. The videos that were found to be useful were longer and had higher DISCERN and content scores. A statistically significant positive correlation was determined between the videos' DISCERN and content scores (r = 0.772, P < .001). More than half of the insulin pen injection videos available on YouTube are helpful, but the number of misleading videos is close to the helpful ones. Thus, it may be recommended that the insulin pen injection videos be evaluated by experts in line with evidence-based guidelines before sharing them on YouTube.

Unplanned readmission endangers patient safety and increases unnecessary healthcare expenditure. Identifying nursing variables that predict patient readmissions can aid nurses in providing timely nursing interventions that help patients avoid readmission after discharge. We aimed to provide an overview of the nursing variables predicting readmission of patients with a high risk. The authors searched five databases-PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Scopus-for publications from inception to April 2023. Search terms included "readmission" and "nursing records." Eight studies were included for review. Nursing variables were classified into three categories-specifically, nursing assessment, nursing diagnosis, and nursing intervention. The nursing assessment category comprised 75% of the nursing variables; the proportions of the nursing diagnosis (25%) and nursing intervention categories (12.5%) were relatively low. Although most variables of the nursing assessment category focused on the patients' physical aspect, emotional and social aspects were also considered. This study demonstrated how nursing care contributes to patients' adverse outcomes. The findings can assist nurses in identifying the essential nursing assessment, diagnosis, and interventions, which should be provided from the time of patients' admission. This can mitigate preventable readmissions of patients with a high risk and facilitate their safe transition from an acute care setting to the community.

This study shows the development of a software for calculating the number of nursing team members required for providing care during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Study about the development of a technology based on the literature about data and indicators. The indicators were systematized in the following dimensions: institutional, professional, and occupational structure, all with a focus on coronavirus disease 2019. The software was created to be used on the Web, client-server, in browsers such as Internet Chrome, Explorer, and/or Mozilla Firefox, accessing via an Internet address and also allowing access by Windows, Android, and Linux operating systems, with MySQL database used for data storage. The data and indicators related to the institutional structure for coronavirus disease 2019 were systematized with 10 dimensions and indicators, and the professional and occupational structure, with 14 dimensions and indicators. The construction of computer requirements followed the precepts of software engineering, with theoretical support from the area. In the evaluation of the software, data simulation revealed points that had to be adjusted to ensure security, data confidentiality, and easy handling. The software provides to calculate the size and quality of the team, nursing sizing required due to the needs generated by the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.

This study aimed to determine what childbearing women want when using virtual reality as an intrapartum pain management method. Researchers performed a qualitative exploratory study using content analysis. Two focus groups were organized including pregnant women anticipating a vaginal birth and women who recently had given birth, no longer than 6 months ago. The focus groups included a 30-minute virtual reality demo. In total, 10 women participated. Five themes emerged: (1) "try, test and explore": the need to receive information and to get acquainted with virtual reality during the antenatal period; (2) "variety and diversity in physical and digital options": the preference for a variety in virtual content and view virtual reality as a complementary method to methods for intrapartum pain management; (3) "distraction versus focus": virtual reality as a method to distract from pain, from the clinical context or to help them focus; (4) "comfort both physical and digital": measures to ensure a comfortable physical and virtual experience; and (5) "birthing partner": the potential need to include partners. This study is an essential step informing the development, implementation, and research of labor-specific virtual reality and informing antenatal healthcare providers when offering women virtual reality as intrapartum pain management.

Operations management of a hospital unit is a shared activity involving nursing and medical professionals, characterized by suddenly changing situations, constant interruptions, and ad hoc decision-making. Previous studies have explored the informational needs affecting decision-making, but only limited information has been collected regarding factors affecting information management related to the daily operations of hospital units. The aim of this study was to describe the experiences of nursing and medical professionals of information management in the daily operations of hospital units. This qualitative study consists of interviews following the critical incidence technique. Twenty-six nurses and eight physicians working in operational leadership roles in hospital units were interviewed, and the data were subjected to thematic analysis. The data analysis showed that strengths of current systems were organizational operational procedures, general instruments supporting information management, and a digital operations dashboard, whereas opportunities for improvement included the information architecture, quality of information, and technology use. The study findings highlight that despite several decades of efforts to provide solutions to support information management in hospital daily operations, further measures need to be taken in developing and implementing information systems with user-centered strategies and systematic approaches to better support healthcare professionals.

The nursing charge system for inpatient accounting has been utilized in healthcare institutions for years. However, the level of its effectiveness in meeting the needs of nursing services, including further development, has not been systematically evaluated. A cross-sectional study based in Delone and McLean's information system success model was applied to explore the level of effective nursing charge system usage across the five dimensions of system quality, information quality, service quality, user satisfaction, and net benefits. We conducted a survey of the inpatient units of a medical center in Taiwan from June 23, 2021, to July 23, 2021. A total of 214 valid questionnaires were collected. Using a 5-point Likert scale, the dimension with the highest score was information quality (3.71), followed by service quality (3.37), user satisfaction (3.36), net benefits (3.31), and system quality (3.23). Older nurses ( r = -0.176) and those with more clinical experience ( r = -0.151) viewed the nursing charge system as having less information quality. The comfort level with using the computer was positively associated with system quality ( r = 0.396), information quality ( r = 0.378), service quality ( r = 0.275), user satisfaction ( r = 0.417), and net benefits ( r = 0.355). The opinions of nurses are vital. User feedback and advice should be investigated regularly to achieve system optimization.

Low adherence to hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation has been observed in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention. The effectiveness of home-based cardiac telerehabilitation in this setting is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the impact of home-based cardiac telerehabilitation on exercise endurance, disease burden status, cardiac function, and quality of life in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention. A total of 106 patients after percutaneous coronary intervention were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (receiving routine rehabilitation care and home-based cardiac telerehabilitation) or the control group (receiving routine care only), with 53 patients in each group. The 6-minute walking test, anerobic threshold, physical component summary score, mental component summary score, Vo2max, and left ventricular ejection fraction were measured in both groups before and 3 months after the intervention. Additionally, the Short-Form 12 scale and Family Burden Interview Schedule were used to assess quality of life and disease burden status. The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in 6-minute walking test, anerobic threshold, Vo2max, physical component summary score, mental component summary score, Short-Form 12 scale, and Family Burden Interview Schedule scale scores compared with the control group (P<0.05). Results suggest that home-based cardiac telerehabilitation may improve exercise endurance and quality of life and reduce disease burden status in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention.

The use of audiovisual feedback devices to guide the quality of chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation has increased in recent years. Audiovisual feedback devices can be classified as integrated (eg, Zoll AED Plus defibrillator) or standalone (eg, CPRmeter). This study aimed to explore users' needs and factors affecting the acceptability of audiovisual feedback devices. Semistructured interviews were conducted with healthcare professionals involved in lifesaving activities. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology was used as a theoretical framework for the study. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model has four constructs: performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating factors. Ten themes were identified under the four constructs. The performance expectancy constructs include three themes: perceived usefulness, outcome expectation, and applicability in diverse situations. The effort expectancy construct encompasses two themes: user-friendliness and complexity. The social influence construct has two themes: social and organizational factors. Lastly, the facilitating factors construct includes three themes: staff competence, perceived cost, and compatibility of devices. Exploring the needs and factors influencing the acceptability of audiovisual feedback devices used during cardiopulmonary resuscitation will inform healthcare providers, managers, manufacturers, and procurers on how to improve the efficiency and use of these devices.
