Nye doktorgrader av sykepleiere
Sykepleiefagets kunnskapsgrunnlag berikes med stadig flere doktorgradsavhandlinger. Her er noen av de nyeste, for deg som ønsker å holde deg oppdatert:
Delirium in children under two years of age admitted to intensive care units – a systematic review
More knowledge of the symptoms of delirium in this vulnerable patient group may lead to a better neurological outcome and prevent unnecessary testing, shorten hospital stays and lower mortality.
Few patients receiving multimodal antiemetic treatment experience postoperative nausea after ambulatory surgery
Patients undergoing gynaecological laparoscopies and anorectal procedures suffered the most nausea, while those who underwent major breast cancer surgery experienced the least nausea.
Preoperative warming with a forced-air warming blanket prevents hypothermia during surgery
Surgical patients are exposed to heat loss, which can lead to complications such as increased oxygen demand, higher infection risk and cardiovascular problems.
Experiences with mobile intensive care nurses (MICNs)
Mobile intensive care nurses are called out to hospital wards when a patient’s condition is showing signs of deterioration. When are they called out, and what measures do they initiate?
Guided Self-Determination as a tool in nursing consultations in primary healthcare – a literature study
Guided Self-Determination (GSD) can help improve the counselling skills of registered nurses. It can also encourage patients to reflect on their own communication skills.
Social media use during and after pregnancy is linked to appearance-focussed comparisons
Social media can trigger both positive and negative emotions, depending on whether women compare themselves with idealised or realistic body types.
Antibiotic-resistant gut bacteria on patients’ hands – a scoping review
Interventions such as reminders, direct observations and hand hygiene facilitation lead to fewer outbreaks.
Norwegian translation of a new, patient-reported multidimensional questionnaire on dyspnoea
The Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile is the first instrument in Norwegian that measures multiple dimensions of dyspnoea, regardless of underlying medical conditions.
