Abstract:
Critical care nurses need finely honed critical thinking skills in order to be safe, competent, and skillful practitioners of their profession. If clinical nurses do not learn how to reason effectively, they may make inappropriate decisions about their patients' care, ultimately resulting in increased patient mortality (Fonteyn, 1991). In addition, increasing nurses' decision-making and autonomy has been shown to improve job satisfaction and retention (Prescott, 1986).There are many authors who write about the need for developing critical thinking skills among practicing professional nurses (Creighton, 1984; Jenkins, 1985; Levenstein, 1981, 1983, 1984). However, research assessing the impact of continued education and clinical experience on the development of critical thinking skills is sparse.The purpose of this exploratory study is to determine if there is a relationship between the level of critical thinking skills (as measured by the Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal Tool, 1980) in critical care nurses and the length of nursing experience, amount of continuing education pursued annually, and the level of formal nursing education completed. The conceptual framework that provides the basis for this study is Patricia Benner's (1984) application of the Dreyfus Model of Skill Acquisition to clinical nursing practice.Participants (N = 61) were obtained on a voluntary basis from the population of critical care nurses working in the intensive Care Unit, Coronary Care Unit, Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, or Emergency Care Center of a 600 bed midwestern acute care facility. Each participant in the study was asked to sign an informed consent agreeing to participate after receiving a written and oral explanation of the study. Confidentiality of the participants was maintained by substituting identification numbers for the subjects' names on the data collection instruments. The investigator supervised the administration of the critical thinking instrument and demographic questionnaire.The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient and a two-tailed t-test for independent samples were used to determine if there were any significant relationships between the WGCTA score and the length of critical care experience, attendance of continuing education programs, or completion of additional formal education. This data analysis supported hypothesis one with the results revealing a significant positive correlation (r = .46, p = <.001) between the WGCTA scores and the length of critical care experience. In addition, a statistically significant but weak positive correlation was found between the WGCTA scores and the length of experience in CCU (r = .52, p = .001). No significant correlation existed between the WGCTA scores and length of experience in ECC, ICU, or CCL. Hypothesis two was supported with a significant difference (t = 3.58, df = 59, p = .001) found between the critical thinking ability of the two groups, with those who have completed an additional formal program of nursing education scoring higher. A significant but weak positive correlation (r = .30, p =.020) was found between the number of continuing education programs attended annually and the WGCTA scores. Multiple regression was performed with the total WGCTA score being the dependent variable and total critical care experience, completion of additional formal education, and attendance of continuing education programs being the independent variables. Only total critical care experience entered the equation (E = 16.03, p = <.001) explaining 21% of the variance.The information gained from this study will provide direction for the review of existing orientation, continuing education, and staff development programs provided at different levels of nursing experience and make suggestions for change to enhance critical thinking skill development.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The increasingly complex role of the critical care nurse in an intensive care environment demands a much higher level of critical thinking and clinical judgment skill than ever before. Critical thinking in nursing practice may be defined as the cognitive ability to analyse, predict and transform knowledge, ensuring quality nursing care. To reason from a nurse’s perspective requires that we learn the content of nursing; this includes the concepts, ideas and theories of nursing. The aim and objectives of the study were to explore critical care nurses’ perspectives and experiences with regards to the concept of critical thinking, facets influencing the application of critical thinking skills in clinical practice and how these impact on the delivery of quality nursing care. A qualitative approach, using a case study design was utilised. A sample of six participants, who met the study inclusion criteria and consented to participate, were interviewed individually. Subsequently, five of these six participants took part in a focus group discussion to capture additional data to clarify and enrich the individual interview data. A field worker was present during the interviewing processes to note non-verbal data and later verify transcribed data. Feasibility of the proposed study was established by conducting a pretest which elicited relevant information. Ethical approval for the study was obtained from the Health Research Ethics Committee at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Stellenbosch University. Permission and consent was obtained from the relevant hospital group to interview nurses working in the intensive care units. Qualitative content analysis, which focuses on the content or contextual meaning, was used to analyse interview data. Coding of the data through emergent themes and sub-themes was done by the researcher and supported through independent coding to verify and strengthen the analysis and interpretation of the researcher. . The results depicted how the participants personally understood the concept of critical thinking and the components influencing the application of critical thinking skill in clinical practice. The study of the participants’ perspective of the concept of critical thinking and portrayed how they experience analytical and independent thinking, competence and confidence, as well as knowledge, skill and expertise, to influence the quality of patient care. The data revealed several themes that facilitated critical thinking in critical care nurses. These themes were ‘team support’, ‘experience and exposure’ and ‘empowering the mind’. Emergent themes elaborating the limitations of critical thinking included ‘being stressed’, ‘professional boundaries’ and ‘being busy’. Several recommendations and suggestions for future research were offered.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die toenemende komplekse rol van die kritieke-sorgverpleegster in ’n intensiewe-sorg omgewing verg ’n veel hoër vlak van kritiese denke en ’n kliniese oordeelvaardigheid as ooit tevore. Kritiese denke in ’n verplegingspraktyk kan gedefinieer word as die kognitiewe vermoë om te kan analiseer, om vooruit situasies te kan bepaal en die vermoë om kennis te omskep sodat kwaliteit verpleegsorg verseker kan word. Om soos ’n verpleegster te kan dink, stipuleer dat die inhoud van verpleging geleer moet word wat konsepte, idees en teorieë daarvan insluit. Die doel en oogmerke van die studie is om die ervarings en perspektiewe van kritieke-sorgverpleegsters te ondersoek, met betrekking tot die konsep van kritiese denke, fasette wat die toepassing van kritiese denkvaardighede in ’n kliniese praktyk beïnvloed en die impak daarvan op die lewering van kwaliteit verpleegsorg. Die metodologie wat toegepas is, is ’n kwalitatiewe benadering deur middel van ’n gevalle-studie ontwerp. ’n Steekproefgrootte van ses deelnemers wat aan die inklusiewe kriteria voldoen het, is mee onderhoude individueel gevoer en daarna is met vyf van hierdie ses deelnemers in ’n fokusgroep onderhoude gevoer ten einde data op te neem wat andersins verlore kon geraak het. ’n Veldwerker was teenwoordig gedurende die proses van onderhoudvoering om die opgeneemde en getranskribeerde data te verifieer. Die data-insamelingsinstrument is in die vorm van ’n onderhoudsgids ontwikkel om die navorser gedurende die onderhoudvoering te help. ’n Loodsondersoek is uitgevoer om die haalbaarheid van die voorgestelde studie te ondersoek en is sodoende geskep om relevante inligting te onthul. Etiese goedkeuring vir die studie is verkry van die Gesondheidsnavorsing Etiese Komitee aan die Fakulteit van Geneeskunde en Gesondheidswetenskappe, Universiteit Stellenbosch. Goedkeuring en toestemming is van die hospitaalgroep aan wie die hospitaal behoort verkry, waar die studie onderneem is om sodoende onderhoude te kan voer met verpleegsters wat in die intensiewe-sorgeenhede werk. ’n Primêre, kwalitatiewe inhouds analise is gebruik om omderhoud data te analiseer wat fokus op die inhoud of kontekstuele betekenis daarvan. Kodering van die data deur die toepassing van die temas en sub-temas wat voorgekom het, is deur die navorser gedoen. Die data is onafhanklik gekodeer om die analise en interpretasie van die navorser te verifieer en te bekragtig ten einde die akkuraatheid en getrouheid in die formulering van die betekenis en interpretasie van gebeure met juiste weergawe daarvan, te verseker. Die resultate wat as hooftemas vanuit die individuele onderhoude voortgespruit het, asook die van die fokusgroep het die deelnemers se eie begrip van die konsep van kritiese denke en komponente wat die toepassing van kritiese denkvaardigheid in ’n kliniese praktyk beïnvloed, getoon. Die konsep van kritiese denke het die wyse waarop analitiese en onafhankilke denke, bevoegdheid en selfvertroue, asook kennis, vaardigheid en kundigheid die kwaliteit van pasiëntsorg beïnvloed, uitgebeeld. Die voortkomende data het daartoe aanleiding gegee dat die faktore wat die fasilitering en beperking van kritiese denke beïnvloed, bespreek kon word. Data rakende fasilitering het getoon hoedat die ondersteuning van die span, ervaring, blootstelling en die verruiming van die gees, kritieke-sorgverpleegsters positief kan beïnvloed om kritiese denke in hulle daaglikse verplegingsaktiwiteite effektief te kan toepas. Data wat verband hou met beperkings het getoon hoedat stres, professionele kwessies en besigwees kritieke-sorgverpleegsters negatief kan beïnvloed in die toepassing van kritiese denke gedurende daaglikse verplegingsaktiwiteite. Verskeie aanbevelings vir toekomstige navorsing is voorgestel.

Abstract:
Patient satisfaction is an outcome of care that represents the patient's judgment on the quality of care. An important aspect of quality affecting patient's judgment can be attributed to patients' expectations and experiences regarding nursing care according to type of unit. The purpose of this study was to examine differences between patients' perceptions of satisfaction with nursing care in critical care units and medical units in one Midwestern hospital.The conceptual framework was "A Framework of Expectation" developed by Oberst in 1984, which asserted that patients have expectations of hospitals and health care professionals regarding satisfaction and dissatisfaction with care. The instrument used to measure patient satisfaction was Risser's Patient Satisfaction Scale, with three dimensions of patient satisfaction: (a) Technical-Professional, (b) Interpersonal-Educational, (c) Interpersonal-Trusting. The convenience sample included 99 patients50 from critical care units and 49 from medical wards. Participation was voluntary. The study design was comparative descriptive and data was analyzed using a t-test.The demographic data showed that the majority of patients had five or more admission. About one-third of the patients were 45-55, 56-65, 66-75, respectively. Findings related to the research questions were that: (a) 84 percent of the respondents rated overall satisfaction in the satisfactory to excellent range, (b) results of a t-test showed significant differences in overall patient satisfaction with patients being more satisfied with care in critical care units. Significant differences were found in three subscales with critical care being more satisfied. No relationship was found between patient satisfaction and age/and/or type of unit.Conclusions were that in both medical and critical care units patients were more satisfied with Technical-Professional and Interpersonal-Trusting than with Interpersonal-Educational. Also noted was that patients in the units where nurse-to-patient ratio was higher participants perceived that nurses had more time, energy and ability to meet patient expectation. Implications call for analysis of nurse/patient ratio in relation to patient satisfaction and nurses in relation to patient education as well as patient's perceptions of getting their needs met.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to identify NANDA - I diagnoses, NOC outcomes, and NIC interventions used in nursing care plans for ICU patient care and determine the factors which influenced the change of the NOC outcome scores. This study was a retrospective and descriptive study using clinical data extracted from the electronic patient records of a large acute care hospital in the Midwest. Frequency analysis, one-way ANOVA analysis, and multinomial logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the data. A total of 578 ICU patient records between March 25, 2010 and May 31, 2010 were used for the analysis. Eighty - one NANDA - I diagnoses, 79 NOC outcomes, and 90 NIC interventions were identified in the nursing care plans. Acute Pain - Pain Level - Pain Management was the most frequently used NNN linkage. The examined differences in each ICU provide knowledge about care plan sets that may be useful. When the NIC interventions and NOC outcomes used in the actual ICU nursing care plans were compared with core interventions and outcomes for critical care nursing suggested by experts, the core lists could be expanded. Several factors contributing to the change in the five common NOC outcome scores were identified: the number of NANDA - I diagnoses, ICU length of stay, gender, and ICU type. The results of this study provided valuable information for the knowledge development in ICU patient care. This study also demonstrated the usefulness of NANDA - I, NOC, and NIC used in nursing care plans of the EHR. The study shows that the use of these three terminologies encourages interoperability, and reuse of the data for quality improvement or effectiveness studies.

Abstract:
For cardiac surgical patients, the immediate 2-hour recovery period is distinguished by potentially life-threatening haemodynamic instability. To ensure optimum patient outcomes, nurses of varying levels of experience must make rapid and accurate decisions in response to episodes of haemodynamic instability. Decision complexity, nurses’ characteristics, and environmental characteristics, have each been found to influence nurses' decision making in some form. However, the effect of the interplay between these influences on decision outcomes has not been investigated. The aim of the research reported in this thesis was to explore variability in critical care nurses' haemodynamic decision making as a function of interplay between haemodynamic decision complexity, nurses' experience, and specific environmental characteristics by applying a naturalistic decision making design. Thirty-eight nurses were observed recovering patients in the immediate 2-hour period after cardiac surgery. A follow-up semi-structured interview was conducted. A naturalistic decision making approach was used. An organising framework for the goals of therapy related to maintaining haemodynamic stability after cardiac surgery was developed to assist the observation and analysis of practice. The three goals of therapy were the optimisation of cardiovascular performance, the promotion of haemostasia, and the reestablishment of normothermia. The research was conducted in two phases. Phase One explored issues related to observation as method, and identified emergent themes. Phase Two incorporated findings of Phase 1, investigating the variability in nurses' haemodynamic decision making in relation to the three goals of therapy. The findings showed that patients had a high acuity after cardiac surgery and suffered numerous episodes of haemodynamic instability during the immediate 2-hour recovery period. The quality of nurses' decision making in relation to the three goals of therapy was influenced by the experience of the nurse and social interactions with colleagues. Experienced nurses demonstrated decision making that reflected the ability to recognise subtle changes in haemodynamic cues, integrate complex combinations of cues, and respond rapidly to instability. The quality of inexperienced nurses' decision making varied according to the level and form of decision support as well as the complexity of the task. When assistance was provided by nursing colleagues during the reception and recovery of patients, the characteristics of team decision making were observed. Team decision making in this context was categorised as either integrated or non integrated. Team decision making influenced nurses' emotions and actions and decision making practices. Findings revealed nurses' experience affected interactions with other team members and their perceptions of assuming responsibility for complex patients. Interplay between decision complexity, nurses' experience, and the environment in which decisions were made influenced the quality of nurses' decision making and created an environment of team decision making, which, in turn, influenced nurses' emotional responses and practice outcomes. The observed variability in haemodynamic decision making has implications for nurse education, nursing practice, and system processes regarding patient allocation and clinical supervision.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to seek a deep understanding of the lived experience of intensive care nurses caring for patients with delirium. Delirium affects a large proportion of adult patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Delirium has been linked to increased morbidity and mortality, longer intensive care and hospital length of stay, long-term cognitive impairments, short-term and long-term psychological distress, and increased hospital and health system costs. Critical care nurses play central roles in preventing, identifying, and treating ICU patients with delirium. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight intensive care nurses working in an ICU in a tertiary level, university-affiliated hospital in Ontario, Canada. The researcher analyzed the interviews using an interpretive phenomenological approach as described by van Manen (1990). The essence of the experience of critical care nurses caring for ICU patients with delirium was revealed to be finding a way to help them come through it. Six main themes emerged: It's Exhausting; Making a Picture of the Patient's Mental Status; Keeping Patients Safe: It's a Really Big Job; Everyone Is Unique; Riding It Out With Families; and Taking Every Experience With You. The findings describe how intensive care nurses find a way to help patients and their families through this complex and often distressing experience. This study has contributed to the understanding of the lived experience of ICU nurses caring for patients with delirium.

Abstract:
Intensive care units (ICUs) emerged across Canada during the early 1960s, significantly contributing to the image of Western hospitals as places of scientific advancement that predominated over much of the twentieth century. ICUs rapidly became both a resource intensive and expensive type of care as the number and size of units increased to accommodate diverse patient populations and treatment options. Nurses enabled the formation and growth of ICUs through their constant presence and skilled care. There has been limited research, however, regarding the historical development of Canadian ICUs, the relationships between nurses and other personnel in such units, how they developed an identity as ICU nurses, or how ICU nursing became a specialty practice. Situated within the broader histories of hospitals, healthcare, and nursing, this study uses a social history approach to examine nurses’ experiences within Canadian ICUs between 1960 and 2002. Berger and Luckmann’s Social Construction of Reality provided a lens for analysis and interpretation of oral histories, photographs, professional literature of the time period under study, and both archival and organizational records. This thesis argues that ICU nurses’ relationships with one another, in the context of a technologically complex environment, socially constructed their knowledge and skill acquisition, their socialization as ICU nurses, and the development of a specialized body of knowledge that ultimately led to formal recognition of ICU nursing as a specialty in Canada.

Abstract:
Background. Untreated maternal mental health disorders can have devastating sequelae for the mother and child. For women who are currently or planning to become pregnant or are breastfeeding, a critical question is whether the benefits of treating psychiatric illness with pharmacologic interventions outweigh the harms for mother and child. Methods. We conducted a systematic review to assess the benefits and harms of pharmacologic interventions compared with placebo, no treatment, or other pharmacologic interventions for pregnant and postpartum women with mental health disorders. We searched four databases and other sources for evidence available from inception through June 5, 2020 and surveilled the literature through March 2, 2021; dually screened the results; and analyzed eligible studies. We included studies of pregnant, postpartum, or reproductive-age women with a new or preexisting diagnosis of a mental health disorder treated with pharmacotherapy; we excluded psychotherapy. Eligible comparators included women with the disorder but no pharmacotherapy or women who discontinued the pharmacotherapy before pregnancy. Results. A total of 164 studies (168 articles) met eligibility criteria. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period probably improves depressive symptoms at 30 days (least square mean difference in the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, -2.6; p=0.02; N=209) when compared with placebo. Sertraline for postpartum depression may improve response (calculated relative risk [RR], 2.24; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.95 to 5.24; N=36), remission (calculated RR, 2.51; 95% CI, 0.94 to 6.70; N=36), and depressive symptoms (p-values ranging from 0.01 to 0.05) when compared with placebo. Discontinuing use of mood stabilizers during pregnancy may increase recurrence (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR], 2.2; 95% CI, 1.2 to 4.2; N=89) and reduce time to recurrence of mood disorders (2 vs. 28 weeks, AHR, 12.1; 95% CI, 1.6 to 91; N=26) for bipolar disorder when compared with continued use. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period may increase the risk of sedation or somnolence, leading to dose interruption or reduction when compared with placebo (5% vs. 0%). More than 95 percent of studies reporting on harms were observational in design and unable to fully account for confounding. These studies suggested some associations between benzodiazepine exposure before conception and ectopic pregnancy; between specific antidepressants during pregnancy and adverse maternal outcomes such as postpartum hemorrhage, preeclampsia, and spontaneous abortion, and child outcomes such as respiratory issues, low Apgar scores, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, depression in children, and autism spectrum disorder; between quetiapine or olanzapine and gestational diabetes; and between benzodiazepine and neonatal intensive care admissions. Causality cannot be inferred from these studies. We found insufficient evidence on benefits and harms from comparative effectiveness studies, with one exception: one study suggested a higher risk of overall congenital anomalies (adjusted RR [ARR], 1.85; 95% CI, 1.23 to 2.78; N=2,608) and cardiac anomalies (ARR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.17 to 4.34; N=2,608) for lithium compared with lamotrigine during first- trimester exposure. Conclusions. Few studies have been conducted in pregnant and postpartum women on the benefits of pharmacotherapy; many studies report on harms but are of low quality. The limited evidence available is consistent with some benefit, and some studies suggested increased adverse events. However, because these studies could not rule out underlying disease severity as the cause of the association, the causal link between the exposure and adverse events is unclear. Patients and clinicians need to make an informed, collaborative decision on treatment choices.
