Simulation-based team training in paediatric units
Simulation-based team training improves quality of patient care, but the training should be a planned activity.

Surgical departments and educational institutions lack an organisational structure and culture that supports evidence-based practice. This may affect patient safety.
Residents with pain suffered from several health issues and presented with physical as well as mental symptoms. Healthcare personnel can help by providing more effective and appropriate treatment and nursing care.
Readmitted patients are older, but their mortality rate is almost equal to that of non-readmitted patients. Patients readmitted within 72 hours are more likely to have an incomplete written transfer report.
The registered nurses found that the ISBAR communication tool improves the treatment and safety of patients in ICU and on general hospital wards by ensuring that transfer reports are made more standardised and time-efficient.
Simuleringsbasert teamtrening gir bedre kvalitet på pasientbehandlingen, men treningen bør være en planlagt aktivitet.
Sykepleiere og studenter trenger å styrke sin kompetanse på smertehåndtering på flere områder.
Beboere med smerte hadde flere helseutfordringer, fysiske og psykiske symptomer. Helsepersonell kan bidra med mer effektiv og riktig behandling, pleie og omsorg.
Reinnlagte pasienter er eldre, men har tilnærmet lik mortalitet sammenliknet med ikke-reinnlagte pasienter. Men de som reinnlegges innen 72 timer, har høyere odds for mangelfull skriftlig overflyttingsrapport.
Både smerte og smertebehandling kan være medvirkende årsaker til delirium hos eldre pasienter. Det er derfor viktig at sykepleiere har god kompetanse til å vurdere smerte for å forebygge og behandle delirium.
