Abstract:
Falls among hospitalized elderly patients are a safety concern for health care organizations and the patients they serve, but falls can be prevented through the team effort of nurses and other health care professions to promote safety within the organization. The project site was experiencing an increase in the number of patients falls and identified the need for staff education related to assessment and intervention to prevent patient falls in the elderly population. Thus, the practice-focused question for this project was whether an educational program on evidence-based fall prevention strat

Abstract:
Falls are nurse-sensitive outcome which reflect the quality of nursing care. Nurses, therefore, have a major role to play in efforts to decrease fall rates. The objective of this project is to increase nurses' knowledge on the proper use of the CVVM as an attempt to effectively decrease fall rates. Pretest, post test, and course evaluation data were collected from 30 nurses. A descriptive analysis of the data was performed. Overall, the pretest evaluation showed that nurses had an average score of 43% in the combined assessment of their knowledge on fall prevention strategies, their use of the

Abstract:
Falls, with and without injury, in acute care hospitals are quite common but can be prevented if appropriate interventions are in place to address this issue. It is imperative that nurses assess fall risks of all patients admitted to the hospital and advocate for appropriate interventions to prevent falls in those who are found to be at risk. The purpose of this project was to recommend changes to the current fall prevention protocol in the project facility, an acute care hospital, based on best practices identified in a systematic review of the literature.

Introduction. Patient falls occur frequently in the acute hospital setting and are one of the most common adverse events experienced by hospitalised patients. In-hospital falls have negative outcomes for patients, causing injuries in up to half of those who fall. Falls in hospital create additional costs for health services due to increased length of stay (LOS), and greater health resource use. In contrast to much research focused on in-hospital falls worldwide, little is known about the rate, contributing factors and outcomes of inpatient falls in the state sector in South African hospitals.

En nuestro medio existen trabajos que evalúan la mortalidad y sobrevida del paciente pero no la sobrevida renal del paciente. Objetivos: Evaluar la sobrevida renal y factores asociados en pacientes con Falla Renal Aguda en la unidad de cuidados intensivos. Material y Métodos: El estudio es una serie de casos analítica de pacientes con falla renal aguda diagnosticada de acuerdo

Introdução: A imobilização prolongada no leito pode desencadear alterações em diferentes sistemas do corpo e na capacidade funcional. Durante a internação hospitalar, o repouso acontece com frequência e alterações na funcionalidade instaladas neste período podem perdurar mesmo após a alta. Este ambiente pode induzir o paciente à inatividade física o que pode afetar principalmente a força muscular. Objetivos: Avaliar o impacto da internação hospitalar na capacidade funcional e força muscular de pacientes hospitalizados e identificar possíveis preditores de ocorrência de eventos pós alta. Método

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine if the level of Nurse Manager (NM) emotional intelligence (EI) predicted registered nurse (RN) job satisfaction and RN perceptions of the practice environment. In addition, relationships to patient, nursing, and hospital outcomes were explored. Participants included RNs (N=659) and NMs (N=38) from 53 nursing units at eight hospitals located in the southeast region of the United States. A cross-sectional, correlational research design was used to test the hypotheses. Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients, simple linear and multiple regress

Abstract:
A temática da segurança do paciente é uma preocupação antiga, porém, só assumiu relevância nos últimos anos com a divulgação de dados sobre incidentes no cuidado em saúde e suas consequências. Um desses eventos, denominado evento adverso, corresponde à queda. As quedas são eventos não planejados quem levam o paciente ao solo, com ou sem lesão, sendo responsáveis por sofrimento aos pacientes e suas famílias, maior tempo de internação, custos aos sistemas de saúde e até mesmo óbitos. Vários fatores podem levar o paciente ao solo, porém, o foco dos estudos se concentra na população com mai
