Abstract:
Objective: The service type offered by a home care agency contracted by the Queensland government is not based on the qualifications of the worker providing the service, but the service itself. This allows agencies to substitute certain levels and categories of labour in order to provide a service to meet their contract obligations. This study investigated evidence of labour substitution between nursing and allied health services. Methods: Correlation and regression analysis was performed on the data collected from 218 clients of a branch of a community-based service agency operating nationally in Brisbane, Australia, during April, May and June 2005. Results: The results of the regression analysis revealed that when either allied health or nursing time rose by 10%, all else held constant, it was predicted that the other would fall by 4%. The subcategories, registered/enrolled nursing and physiotherapy, appeared to drive the inverse relationship between nursing and allied health service time. Registered/ enrolled nursing service time was more sensitive to changes in physiotherapy rather than the other way around. Conclusions: The higher labour turnover among allied health staff compared with the nursing staff reported by the agency implies a substitution of labour between the two professions to ensure that the needs of clients are met. Health policy makers and health care professional educators need to acknowledge that workforce shortages will inevitably reshape professional boundaries. Leaving labour-force substitution undiscussed and unplanned may compromise the quality and safety of care.

Abstract:
Recognizing the emotional labour underlying interprofessional collaborations (IPCs) could be considered a crucial step towards building a cohesive nursing team. Although IPCs between registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs) have been linked to quality nursing care, little is known about the emotions experienced by LPNs during their interactions with RNs or those factors that influence IPCs. A questionnaire administered to 309 LPNs found that (1) the professional identity of LPNs has evolved into a that of a unique social group; (2) LPNs define IPC as an interpersonal process of exploring similar or dissimilar assessments of a patient's status with RNs and, together, establishing a course of nursing actions; (3) the primary organizational factor facilitating IPCs is inclusive nursing leadership; (4) the interpersonal factor promoting IPCs is the level of trust RNs extend to LPNs; and (5) an LPN's emotional labour (i.e., internal emotional regulation) is most tangible during uncollaborative interactions with RNs.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjective: to verify how nursing care, related to nutrition and hydration in labor, is provided to laboring women. Method: this is about an exploratory study from qualitative approach developed at the obstetric ward of a school hospital in Curitiba city, from August to November 2007, with 10 low risk primiparous, semi-structured interviews were conducted with puerperal women, and analyzed according to Bardin content analysis technique, and five categories emerged. Results: nutrition and hydration during labor is still a controversial topic. Fasting during labor has been considered necessary for many years, due to the fear of gastric contents aspiration during anesthesia, but this is being reassessed by the humanization movement. Conclusion: The humanization of labor care is still a challenge in many hospitals, and nutrition during labor is a caution that should be implemented aiming the improvement of the care for women during childbirth as part of humanized care. Descriptors: labor; nursing care; nutrition; hydration; humanization.RESUMO Objetivo: verificar como ocorre o cuidado de enfermagem à parturiente frente às necessidades de nutrição e hidratação no trabalho de parto.

Abstract:
Managing labour pain is a challenging concern for nurses who involved in care of mothers during labour and child birth. Massage is a primordial method that has been generally employed during labour, however, relatively little study has been assumed examining the effects of massage on women during labour. The study insistent pain allied with labour may negatively impact mother further transforming to foetus, frequently varying the childbirth course. The techniques of health care humanisation mention that women in labour should have the chance to relieve their pain with pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods. The systemic review examines literature on effectiveness of back massage to relieve labour pain from 2013 to 2019. The electronic database reviewed for the systemic review included PubMed, Medline, nursing health journal, Google scholar etc by including relevant key words. Ten studies were included in the systemic review. The available literature on non-pharmacological method provides evidence as a back massage is effective to reduce labour pain. The aim of the present review is to examine the effect of back massage as a method to relieve labour pain and give comfort to mother. The experience of labour pain is different in women and it is affected by several psychological and physiological factors and its intensity may vary significantly. During labour majority of women need pain relief. Strategies of pain management include pharmacological and non-pharmacological intervention. Evidence suggests that non pharmacological methods are helpful to reduce labour pain. We identified 10 reviews out of 110 for inclusion within this review. All studies on back massages show that it is effective to relieve pain during labour.

Abstract:
Background/Aims Globally, there are three pathways to become a midwife: midwifery post nursing, direct entry midwifery and integrated nursing and midwifery. There is limited knowledge on the effectiveness of pre-service midwifery education. The aim of this study was to describe and compare midwifery students' confidence in intrapartum skills and associated factors such as type and level of education. Methods A multi-country cross-sectional study was conducted, where midwifery students were approached in the final months of their education programme. Data were collected using a questionnaire, based on the basic skills by the International Confederation of Midwives. Intrapartum care comprised 40 skills. Results In total, 1407 midwifery students from seven sub-Saharan countries responded. The 40 skills were grouped into six domains; three related to care during the first and second stage of labour and three related to care during the third stage of labour. Sex and age were significantly associated with confidence, with female students and those 26–35 years old having higher levels of confidence. Students enrolled in a direct entry programme were more confident than other students in all three domains of care related to the first and second stage of labour. Conclusions Direct entry was found to result in higher confidence for midwifery students than post nursing programmes or integrated programmes. Further research is needed for evaluation of competence.

Abstract Starting points: In Slovenia, the higher education institution for nursing started exploring employability opportunities in nursing care in connection with the achievement of competencies from students’ and employers’ point of view. This article highlights the importance of monitoring nursing graduates’ employability. Its aim is to examine the employability of nursing care graduates based on the self-evaluation of competences obtained during the last study year and to establish a link between the self-evaluation of competences and students’ academic performance. Methodology: A questionnaire was distributed to full and part time nursing care students attending the last study year at five different healthcare/health sciences faculties in Slovenia and to employers (healthcare institutions) where the majority of nursing care graduates finds employment. We examined the level of competence achieved by nursing students and the level of competences required by employers. The sample included a total of 485 students. 194 surveys were returned, which represent a 40 percent response. We used Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for each individual joined competence. Further, we compared employability skills of students and employers with Mann-Whitney and Wilcox rank-sum test. For correlation between two variables we used Spearman correlation analysis. Results: The Mann-Whitney and Wilkson Rank test show that employers generally assess competences with a higher average grade in comparison to students and these differences are statistically significant. By applying the Spearman correlation analysis, we established that a statistically significant weak correlation may be observed between the “average grade” and “competences” variables. Discussion and conclusion: Our findings show that a continuous monitoring of general and subject-specific competences gained by students, along with a periodic verification of competences demanded by employers, is necessary. It is very important to monitor the requirements of the labour market in terms of ongoing communication with employers who can best estimate special knowledge needs.

Abstract:
SummaryThis was a hospital-based cross-sectional study of 224 randomly selected antenatal women receiving care at the University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria. The study aimed to seek the attitude and preferences of respondents about social support during childbirth and also identify variables that may influence their decisions. Seventy-five per cent of respondents desired companionship in labour. Approximately 86% preferred their husband as companion while 7% and 5% wanted their mother and siblings as support person respectively. Reasons for their desire for social support were emotional (80·2%), spiritual (17·9%), errands (8·6%) and physical activity (6·8%). Socio-demographic variables found to be statistically significant on logistic regression analysis for the desire of a companion in labour were nulliparity (OR 3·57, 95% CI 1·49–8·52), professionals (OR 3·11, 95% CI 1·22–7·94) and women of other ethnic groups besides Yoruba (OR 2·90, 95% CI 1·02–8·26), which is the predominant ethnic group in the study area. Only those with post-secondary education were found to want their husbands as doula (OR 2·96, 95% CI 1·08–8·11). More than half of the respondents wanted information about labour prior to their experience. It is important that Nigerian women are allowed the benefit of social support during childbirth, particularly as there is a lack of one-to-one nursing care and other critical services, including epidural analgesia in labour, at many of the health care facilities in Nigeria. Men could play a pivotal role in the process of introducing support in labour so as to improve the outcome for both the mother and her newborn.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis was to develop best practice recommendations to care for women in the second stage of labor. Evidence suggests that care of women during the second stage of labor using upright positioning, delayed pushing, application of warm compresses to the perineum, and perineal massage can improve maternal and neonatal outcomes (Aasheim et al., 2011; Brancato et al., 2008; Chang et al., 2011; Dahlen et al., 2007; Dahlen et al., 2009; Gillesby et al., 2010; Gupta et al., 2012; Kelly et al., 2010; Sanders et al., 2005; Schaub et al., 2008; Simpson & James, 2005; Terry et al., 2006; Thies-Lagergren et al., 2013). A theoretical plan for implementation and evaluation of best practice recommendations for the second stage of labor was discussed in this paper. Registered nurses implementing evidence-based recommendations within the hospital setting for pregnant women regarding delayed pushing, upright labor positions, and interventions to reduce perineal trauma and pain, would provide women care that may improve second stage of labor outcomes.

Abstract:

The purpose of this qualitative grounded theory study was to understand nurses’ perceptions of care that supports patients’ dignity during hospitalization at the end of life, and to propose a theoretical foundation consistent with these perceptions as a guide to practice. The research involved analyzing perceptions about processes that can explain how nurses perceive care that supports patients’ dignity at the end of life during hospitalization. The aim of the research in this study included a focus on the general problem that patients’ dignity is not always respected by healthcare providers according to the review of the literature and the acknowledgment of the lack of theories related to nurses’ perceptions of care that supports dignity during end-of-life care. A grounded theory design offered a systematic approach to developing a theoretical model from data that takes into consideration the complexities of nurses’ perceptions of care that supports dignity during hospitalization at end of life. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 11 experienced registered oncology female nurses from the northeastern region of the United States. The research involved analysis of the perceptions of nurses caring for cancer patients admitted to the hospital during end of life. The development of a beginning model for dignity care stemmed from the emergence of three major categories, which were communication, support, and facilitation. The identified subcategories were education, workshops, course curriculum, in-services, being an advocate, listening, being present, physical needs, emotional support, compassion, honoring wishes, respect, and being treated as human. The emergence and development of a dignity model may offer a process that can serve as a valuable reference in providing care that supports the dignity of patients during hospitalization at end of life.

Abstract:
During their clinical practicum, nursing students are involved in making decisions about the care for their patient or group of patients. The purpose of this study was to ascertain nursing students' perceptions of the variety and magnitude of factors that influence them as they are making decisions about patient care. For the study a nonexperimental approach utlizing a cross-sectional descriptive design was used. Thirty-three second year and thirty-one third year nursing students from a diploma nursing school responded to a questionnaire designed to reflect perceived domains of influence in thier clinical decision making. A subset of 18 subjects were interviewed. Some of the major findings include: 1) More second year than third year students perceived stress as a factor affecting their clinical decision making. Third year students most often mentioned the instructor-student relationship as a source of stress. Second year students most often referred to their workload and fatigue as contributing to their stress. 2) More third year than second year students preceived decision making theory and the nursing process to be an influencing factor in decision making. 3) Previous life and health-related work experience was indicated to be an influencing factor in clinical decision making more often by second year students than by third year students. 4) When asked to choose and rank five from a list of sixteen influencing factors in clinical decision making, the combined group chose the following in order; knowledge of patients and their condition, level of self confidence, knowledge of nursing proces, relationship with instructor, previous nursing experience, and previous life experience. 5) In the interviews the two most frequently mentioned guiding forces in decision making were: (a)what they (the student) or someone close to them would want and (b)patient preference. The study encourages nursing instructors to be cognizant of the variety of forces impacting student decision making in the clinical setting. It also suggests that students who are encouraged to incorporate their personal reality in an atmosphere that provides some latitude in decision making will be more likely to assume decision-making responsibility.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The importance of maintaining maternal wellbeing during the antenatal period is mandatory to the mother and the baby. Although asymptomatic maternal tachycardia could be seen as part of the physiological changes during pregnancy, it could also be a sign of a serious underlying condition. Previous studies have shown that maternal deaths could occur in women with pre-existing cardiac conditions (Naidoo, Desai & Moodley, 2002:17). The concern that many conditions associated with maternal tachycardia pass through the health care system without being noticed or investigated motivated the researcher to undertake this study. The study aimed to determine the prevalence of maternal tachycardia during late pregnancy and its association with anaemia, major cardiac diseases and/or complications and adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes. A case-control retrospective study design within a prospective study was employed with a quantitative approach. A total sample size of 204 participants, constituting 14.3% of the study population (N=1431) was purposefully selected from the Monica AN24™ recordings of the Safe Passage Study at Tygerberg Hospital to collect the data. Ethical approval was obtained from the Health Research Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Stellenbosch University and a waiver of consent had been granted. A group of 16 participants, who met the inclusion criteria, constituting 7.8% of the total sample, was selected for the pilot study. Reliability and validity was ensured by the pilot study and pre-testing the data collection instrument as it was tested under the exact circumstances as the actual study experts in the field of nursing and medical research and statistics were used. The data was analyzed by the use of the STATISTICA version 9 programme. The results show a 7.1% (n=102) prevalence of maternal tachycardia in late pregnancy. There were no pre-existing cardiac conditions in any of the groups and no maternal cardiac complications during pregnancy and delivery. The case group had a higher incidence (55.0%) of haemoglobin values lower than 11.0 g/dL than the control group (47.0%), however the Mann-Whitney U test revealed no statistically significant difference of the Hb values at 28 to 38 weeks between the case and the control groups. The participants presenting with anaemia (Hb < 11.0 g/dL) were classified as mild anaemia (Hb value of 7.0 – 10.9 g/dL). There were no participants that presented with severe anaemia (Hb value of < 7.0g/dL). There was an increased prevalence (9.1%) of infection in the participants presenting with maternal tachycardia, although this difference was not significant between the two groups. The infant outcome revealed an increased mean birth weight of 194g for the case group that presented with maternal tachycardia. Several recommendations were identified that were grounded in the study findings. The findings reveal that the current antenatal care practice in terms of not recording the maternal heart rate is sufficient.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die belangrikheid van die handhawing van moederlike welsyn gedurende die voorgeboorte tydperk is noodsaaklik vir die moeder en die baba. Alhoewel asimptomatiese moederlike tagikardie gesien kan word as deel van die fisiologiese veranderinge tydens swangerskap, kan dit ook 'n teken wees van 'n ernstige onderliggende toestand. Vorige studies het aangetoon dat moederlike sterftes kan voorkom in vroue met voorafgaande harttoestande (Naidoo, Desai & Moodley, 2002:17). Die kommer dat verskeie toestande wat verband hou met moederlike tagikardie, deur die gesondheidsorg stelsel kan deurglip sonder om opgemerk te word, het die navorser gemotiveer om hierdie studie te onderneem. Die studie is daarop gemik om die voorkoms van moederlike tagikardie tydens laat swangerskap en sy verbintenis met anemie, ernstige hartsiektes en/of komplikasies en ongunstige moederlike en perinatale uitkoms te bepaal. 'n Gevalkontrole retrospektiewe studie-ontwerp binne 'n voornemende studie is gebruik met 'n kwantitatiewe benadering. 'n Totale steekproefgrootte van 204 deelnemers, wat 14.3% van die populasie (N=1431) uitmaak is op ‘n doelgerigte manier uitgekies uit die Monica AN24™ opnames van die Veilige Geboorte Studie by Tygerberg Hospitaal om die data in te samel. Etiese goedkeuring is verkry van die Mensnavorsing Etiese komitee komitee van Fakulteit van Geneeskunde en Gesondheidswetenskappe van die Universiteit Stellenbosch en 'n kwytskelding van toestemming is verleen. 'n Groep van 16 deelnemers, wat voldoen aan die insluitingskriteria, wat 7,8% van die totale steekproef bestaan, is geselekteer vir die loodsstudie. Betroubaarheid en geldigheid is verseker deur die loodsstudie en die voorafgaande toets van die data-insamelingsinstrument onder presies dieselfde omstandighede as die werklike studie sowel as die gebruik van kenners in die gebied van verpleging en mediese navorsing en statistiek. Die data is ontleed deur die gebruik van die Statistica weergawe 9 program. Die resultate toon 'n 7,1% (n=102) voorkoms van moederlike tagikardie in laat swangerskap. Daar was geen onderliggende harttoestande in enige van die groepe en geen moederlike hartkomplikasies tydens swangerskap en geboorte nie. Die gevalgroep het 'n hoër voorkoms (55,0%) van Hb waardes laer as 11.0 g/dl as die kontrole groep (47.0%) gehad, maar die Mann-Whitney U-toets toon geen statisties beduidende verskil in die Hb waardes by 28-38 weke tussen die geval en die kontrolegroepe nie. Die deelnemers met anemie (Hb < 11.0 g/dl) is geklassifiseer met ligte bloedarmoede (Hb waarde van 7.0-10.9 g/dl). Daar was geen deelnemers wat erge bloedarmoede (Hb waarde van < 7.0g/dL) getoon het nie. Daar was verhoogde voorkoms (9,1%) van infeksie in die deelnemers met moederlike tagikardie, hoewel die verskil nie beduidend tussen die twee groepe was nie. Die baba uitkoms toon 'n toename in gemiddelde geboortegewig van 194g vir die gevalgroep wat met moederlike tagikardie gediagnoseer is. Verskeie aanbevelings is geïdentifiseer wat in die studie se bevindinge gegrond is. Die bevindinge dui daarop dat die huidige voorgeboortelike sorgpraktyk in terme van nie rekordering van die moederlike hartspoed voldoende is.

Abstract:
Caregivers while, the biggest providers of palliative care for terminally sick patients, are often neglected in the process of providing care, which inadvertently affects their overall health and well-being. This study aims to explore the experiences of the unmet needs of the caregivers in palliative care. The literature review is based on seven quantitative, four qualitative and one mixed methodology approach studies. Results show a shortage of information given to caregivers regarding disease progression, symptomatology, support services and financial services. Furthermore the themes of unmet needs that emerged are physical, psychological, emotional, social and spiritual needs. Caregivers also reported the shortage of standard services provided by healthcare sector.  A healthy relationship scenario, where caregivers are supported to look after themselves as well as their loved ones, would boost the support they render to the patients.  The provision of needed services to caregivers, nurses, and healthcare personnel is required to fulfill a healthy relationship and further develop it by learning from the caregivers’ experiences. In conclusion, effective communication between caregivers and care providers is found to be a prerequisite for building trust and could contribute to satisfy the informational, medical, social and spiritual needs while helping to decrease health strains of caregivers.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore and describe nurse-patient communication during critical illness events. The theoretical structure of the study was drawn from communication, sociolinguistic, and nursing theory. Data were collected in a 374-bed private hospital in the Southwest. The sample consisted of six registered nurses and nine patients experiencing cardiac surgery. Nine observed and audiotaped nurse-patient interactions, and fourteen audiotaped partcipant interviews provided the data base for analysis. Content analysis was used to organize the data. Findings were presented in terms of language, paralanguage, and nonverbal expression, and in terms of content, process, and product of nurse-patient communication. Participants used biomedical-technical language and casual-everyday language during the interactions. Nurses talked about what patients would experience while patients talked about themselves as a way of establishing their credibility within the biomedical setting. Nurses viewed nurse-patient communication as variable depending on the patients' needs and responses. Patients viewed nurse-patient communication as straightforward, not requiring adjustment for the needs of the participants. Products of communication for patients involved increased knowledge, reassurance, and increased confidence. Products of communication for nurses involved relieving the patients' anxieties, considering the patients' remembering, and increasing the nursing staff's knowledge about the patient while helping the patient to know the goals of the nursing staff. The introduction and closure segments of the six nurse-patient interactions for preoperative preparation of the patient were analyzed. Nurses began the introductions by assuming that the patients needed relief from anxiety but the patients demonstrated politeness more than anxiety. Nurses used strategies of questioning, starting the physical assessment, topic persistence, and self-monitoring to control the closure segments. Patients used narratives and humor as control strategies. The study findings suggest conceptual areas relevant to nurse-patient communication which may ground theoretical model development for nurse-patient communication. Nurses in clinical settings can compare their patient communication experiences with the findings of the study in order to increase their understanding of expression, form, and function of nurse-patient communication.

Abstract:
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2014, nursing and residential care facilities had the highest incidence rate of total nonfatal occupational injury cases in the U.S. Manual patient handling tasks result in high lumbar load (Jager et al., 2013), and most of work-related back disorders in nurses are related to patient transfers. The present pilot study seeks to determine if there are significant differences in the motion of experienced nurses and novice nurses while performing the same patient repositioning tasks. A motion capture experiment was conducted in a laboratory setting on 14 female nurses performing two patient repositioning tasks (moving patient toward the head of the bed; transferring patient from bed to a wheelchair). Of the nurses selected, 7 were experienced nurses (greater than 5 years of nursing experience), and 7 were novice nurses (between 0 and 2 years of nursing experience). The motion capture data were post processed using Cortex and Visual3D software. Average and maximum joint angles for the spine, knees, elbows, and shoulders for each task were compared between the novice and experienced nurses using a Wilcoxon Rank Sum test to determine whether there were significant differences in motion for the same patient repositioning tasks. Although significant differences were not found for average or maximum joint angles between the novice and experienced groups, there was a significant difference in variances between the novice and experienced groups for some angles for the wheelchair task.

Abstract:
The development of socially assistive robots for health care applications can provide measurable improvements in patient safety, quality of care, and operational efficiencies by playing an increasingly important role in patient care in the fast pace of crowded clinics, hospitals and nursing/veterans homes. However, there are a number of research issues that need to be addressed in order to design such robots. In this paper, we address two main limitations to the development of intelligent socially assistive robots: (i) identification of human body language via a non-contact sensory system and categorization of these gestures for determining the accessibility level of a person during human-robot interaction, and (ii) decision making control architecture design for determining the learning-based task-driven behavior of the robot during assistive interaction. Preliminary experiments presented show the potential of the integration of the aforementioned techniques into the overall design of such robots intended for assistive scenarios.

Abstract:
The current literature has pointed out the existence of positive influences of spiritual and religious beliefs in cancer treatment. The study, promoted by the Centre for Multidisciplinary Research in Culture, Faith and Reason (NUCFER), sought to understand the conception of cancer patients and health professionals about the inclusion of spirituality in the treatment of people with cancer. Thus, the general objective of this project was to understand the meaning of spirituality for cancer patients during their treatment and how this experience can contribute to support human care and relationships between patients and the healthcare team. The research was qualitative, using the semi-structured interview technique. 06 (six) health professionals were interviewed, one Nursing Assistant, three Registered Nurses and two Doctors; and 05 (five) people who have already gone through cancer treatment or are going through it. In a total of eleven people interviewed, all stated that it is important to take into account the spirituality of patients undergoing cancer treatment, as it significantly contributes to the treatment and coping with the difficulties arising from this painful process, in addition to valuing the human person byseeing them beyond their disease. Thus, the research revealed that the spirituality of patients undergoing cancer treatment must be taken into account, respected and encouraged when they wish. Subsequently, ithelps to maintain the emotional health of these individuals in high suffering, to recognize themselves in their integrity as humans, to respect all their expressions of living beings in the world. This representsa humanized treatment and promotes dignity of the human person

Full text
Abstract:
This article provides an overview of financing for long-term services and supports (LTSS) in the United States, paying special attention to how it has changed and not changed over the last 30 years. Although LTSS expenditures have increased greatly (like the rest of health care), the broad outline of the financing system has remained remarkably constant. Medicaid—a means-tested program—continues to dominate LTSS financing, while private long-term care insurance plays a minor role. High out-of-pocket costs and spend-down to Medicaid because of those high costs continue to be hallmarks of the system. Although many major LTSS financing reform proposals were introduced over this period, none was enacted—except the Community Living Assistance Services and Supports Act, which was repealed before implementation because of concerns about adverse selection. The one major change during this time period has been the very large increase in Medicare spending for post-acute services, such as short-term skilled nursing facility and home health care. With the aging of the population, demand for LTSS is likely to increase, placing strain on the existing system.
