Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo determine whether antimicrobial-impregnated textiles decrease the acquisition of pathogens by healthcare provider (HCP) clothing.DESIGNWe completed a 3-arm randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of 2 types of antimicrobial-impregnated clothing compared to standard HCP clothing. Cultures were obtained from each nurse participant, the healthcare environment, and patients during each shift. The primary outcome was the change in total contamination on nurse scrubs, measured as the sum of colony-forming units (CFU) of bacteria.PARTICIPANTS AND SETTINGNurses working in medical

Abstract:
There is a growing trend within perioperative practice for nurses to undertake dual roles as both scrubbed nurse and surgeon's first assistant. In this article, Janet Wood suggests that nurses are allowing themselves to be pressured into attempting to carry out both roles simultaneously. She fears that this puts nurses at risk of failing to satisfy both their legal and moral duty of care to their patients, and advises how to deal with this situation.

Abstract:
There is presently a shortage of nurses in Japan, with a further shortage of 3,000–130,000 nurses expected. There is also shortage of scrub nurses. Scrub nurses are nurses who work in the operating room. The main job of scrub nurses is to assist surgeons. Scrub nurses are a high turnover rate, because it is a difficult job. Therefore, system for assisting scrub nurses are needed. The purpose of this study was to develop a robotic scrub nurse. As a first step, a detection system for surgical instruments was developed using the “Faster Region-Based Convolutional Neural Network” (Faster R-CNN). I

Abstract:
Abstract Under-staffing of nurses is a significant problem in most countries. It is expected to rise in the coming years, making it challenging to perform crucial tasks like assessing a patient's condition, assisting the surgeon in medical procedures, catheterization and Blood Transfusion etc., Automation of some essential tasks would be a viable idea to overcome this shortage of nurses. One such task intended to automate is the role of a 'Scrub Nurse' by using a robotic arm to hand over the surgical instruments. In this project, we propose to use a Collaborative Robotic-arm as a Scrub nurse t

Abstract:
The significance of professionally-relevant behaviour of scrub nurses for teamwork in the operating room is increasing, as proven by the studies carried out over the last decades worldwide. Non-technical skills include both social and cognitive elements. Specific behaviour evaluation system can be used to identify, assess and improve non-technical skills of scrub nurses. Improvement of non-technical skills helps reduce staff errors in the intraoperative period. The objective of the research is to find out whether there are statistically significant differences between scrub nurses’ self-assess

Abstract:
Operating theatre scrub nurses (OTSNs) are not required to have undertaken a secondary or specialist post-registration theatre qualification to work in the operating theatre (OT) setting in the UK. From the systematic review there is only very limited literature or research in how technical scrub skills are acquired. This study explores the lived experiences of OTSNs learning technical scrub skills. The study employed the qualitative methodology of interpretative phenomenological analysis. Data was collected from six participating OTSNs using semi-structured interviews. Four superordinate them
