Alostaz Z, Rose L, Mehta S, Johnston L, Dale CM. Interprofessional intensive care unit (ICU) team perspectives on physical restraint practices and minimization strategies in an adult ICU: A qualitative study of contextual influences. Nurs Crit Care 2024; 29:90-98. [PMID: 36443064 DOI: 10.1111/nicc.12864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Revised: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines advocate for minimization of physical restraint (PR) use in intensive care units (ICU). Interprofessional team perspectives on PR practices can inform the design and implementation of successful PR minimization interventions. AIM To identify ICU staff perspectives of contextual influences on PR practices and minimization strategies. STUDY DESIGN A qualitative descriptive study in a single ICU in Toronto, Canada. One-on-one semi-structured interviews were conducted with 14 ICU staff. A deductive content analysis of interviews was undertaken using the integrated-Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (i-PARIHS) framework. RESULTS Five themes were developed: risk-averse culture, leadership, practice monitoring and feedback processes, environmental factors, and facilitation. Participants described a risk-averse culture where prophylactic application of PR for intubated patients was used to prevent unplanned extubation thereby avoiding blame from colleagues. Perceived absence of leadership and interprofessional team involvement situated nurses as the primary decision-maker for restraint application and removal. Insufficient monitoring of restraint practices, lack of access to restraint alternatives, and inability to control environmental contributors to delirium and agitation further increased PR use. Recommendations as to how to minimize restraint use included a nurse facilitator to advance leadership-team collaboration, availability of restraints alternatives, and guidance on situations for applying and removing restraints. CONCLUSIONS This analysis of contextual influences on PR practices and minimization using the i-PARIHS framework revealed potentially modifiable barriers to successful PR minimization, including a lack of leadership involvement, gaps in practice monitoring, and collaborative decision-making processes. A team approach to changing behaviour and culture should be considered for successful implementation and sustainability of PR minimization. RELEVANCE TO PRACTICE The establishment of an interprofessional facilitation team that addresses risk-averse culture and promotes collaboration among ICU stakeholders will be crucial to the success of any approach to restraint minimization.

Impact of Telemedicine use on clinical care indicators of pediatric intensive care units: protocol for a cluster randomized clinical trial. CRITICAL CARE SCIENCE 2023; 35:266-272. [PMID: 38133156 PMCID: PMC10734809 DOI: 10.5935/2965-2774.20230223-en] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this study is to present the protocol of a cluster randomized clinical trial to be conducted through the TeleICU project - Qualification of Intensive Care by Telemedicine. The study will consist of a cluster randomized clinical trial, open label, in pediatric intensive care units, with an allocation ratio of 1:1, to compare the intervention group (support of Telemedicine for patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit) with a control group (pediatric intensive care unit usual care). The study proposed to select 16 pediatric intensive care units, including 100 participants per site, with a total of 1,600 participants. The intervention group will receive telerounds from Monday to Friday and will have specialists and continuing education activities available. The primary outcome measure will be the length of stay in the pediatric intensive care unit, defined as the difference between the date of discharge of the participant and the date of admission to the intensive care unit. The secondary outcomes will be mortality rate, invasive mechanical ventilation-free days, days using antibiotics, days using vasoactive drugs and days using sedoanalgesia. This study will be conducted in accordance with Resolution 466/12 of the National Health Council, with approval by the Research Ethics Committee of the institutions involved. The present study has the potential to reproduce studies on Telemedicine in intensive care and may make important contributions to care in intensive care units in Brazil and other settings. If Telemedicine shows positive clinical care results compared to conventional treatment, more pediatric patients may benefit. ClinicalTrials.gov registry: NCT05260710.

Defining effective communication for critically ill patients with an artificial airway: An international multi-professional consensus. Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2023; 76:103393. [PMID: 36706499 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2023.103393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Revised: 01/10/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To define effective communication and identify its key elements specific to critically ill patients with an artificial airway. DESIGN A modified Consensus Development Panel methodology. SETTING International video-conferences. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Definition of effective communication and it's key elements. RESULTS Eight experts across four international regions and three professions agreed to form the Consensus Development Panel together with a Chair and one person with lived experience who reviewed the outputs prior to finalisation. "Communication for critically ill adult patients with an artificial airway (endotracheal or tracheostomy tube) is defined as the degree in which a patient can initiate, impart, receive, and understand information, and can range from an ineffective to effective exchange of basic to complex information between the patient and the communication partner(s). Effective communication encompasses seven key elements including: comprehension, quantity, rate, effort, duration, independence, and satisfaction. In critically ill adults, communication is impacted by factors including medical, physical and cognitive status, delirium, fatigue, emotional status, the communication partner and the nature of the ICU environment (e.g., staff wearing personal protective equipment, noisy equipment, bright lights)." The panel agreed that communication occurs on a continuum from ineffective to effective for basic and complex communication. CONCLUSION We developed a definition and list of key elements which constitute effective communication for critically ill patients with an artificial airway. These can be used as the basis of standard terminology to support future research on the development of communication-related outcome measurement tools in this population. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE This study provides international multi-professional consensus terminology and a definition of effective communication which can be used in clinical practice. This standard definition and key elements of effective communication can be included in our clinical impressions of patient communication, and be used in discussion with the patient themselves, their families and the multi-professional team, to guide care, goal development and intervention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of hydrotherapy and tactile-kinesthetic stimulation on the birth weight of preterm infants admitted in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. METHOD It was a randomized controlled trial, without blinding, in which 44 preterm infants of both sexes with gestational age between 32 and 34 weeks were included into two groups: hydrotherapy group (n = = 22) and tactile-kinesthetic stimulation group (n = 22). Weight gain was the parameter assessed daily. RESULTS In the tactile-kinesthetic stimulation group there was a variation in weight gain, but without significant difference (p = 0,43). However, in the hydrotherapy group, it was observed that increased weight gain started from the 2nd day (p < 0,001). CONCLUSIONS Hydrotherapy group presented significantly increased weight after the interventions, indicating that this technique can interfere with weight gain in preterm infants.

Abstract
To understand power relations, it is important to consider that power is an attribute, and whoever has it at a given moment is in the condition of dominant and whoever is under its exercise is dominated. Moreover, we must consider that these positions are interchangeable, changing when relations of force change. Power relations represent the pursuit of supremacy through knowledge, with struggles for better positioning in the social structure. In this study, we analyze the effects of disciplinary power on daily practices of nurses and physicians in the hospital environment, more specifically in intensive care units. From the perspective of disciplines, power is exercised in a discreet, modest, calculated and permanent way, through the establishment of rules and norms. In this context, despite the strong appreciation of a medical-centered model, it is observed that nurses gain visibility through knowledge and the defense of institutional norms and rules, which can generate tensions in daily professional practices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Spiritual care could help family members and critically ill patients to cope with anxiety, stress and depression. However, health care professionals are poorly prepared and health managers are not allocating all the resources needed. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To critically review the empirical evidence concerning the influence of spirituality and religion (S-R) on critical care nursing. METHODS An integrative review of the literature published in the last 10 years (2010-2019) was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, CINHAL, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Cochrane and LILACS. In addition, searches were performed in the System for Information on Grey Literature in Europe and the Grey Literature Report. Quantitative and/or qualitative studies, assessing S-R and including health care professionals caring for critically ill patients (i.e. adults or children), were included. RESULTS Forty articles were included in the final analysis (20 qualitative, 19 quantitative and 1 with a mixed methodology). The studies embraced the following themes: S-R importance and the use of coping among critical care patients and families; spiritual needs of patients and families; health care professionals' awareness of spiritual needs; ways to address spiritual care in the intensive care unit (ICU); definition of S-R by health care professionals; perceptions and barriers of addressing spiritual needs; and influence of S-R on health care professionals' outcomes and decisions. Our results indicate that patients and their families use S-R coping strategies to alleviate stressful situations in the ICU and that respecting patients' spiritual beliefs is an essential component of critical care. Although nurses consider spiritual care to be very important, they do not feel prepared to address S-R and report lack of time as the main barrier. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Critical care professionals should be aware about the needs of their patients and should be trained to handle S-R in clinical practice. Nurses are encouraged to increase their knowledge and awareness towards spiritual issues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the coping strategies of family members of patients admitted to intensive care units. DESIGN A cross-sectional study developed with 70 relatives of patients admitted to the intensive care unit. SETTING An adult intensive care unit at a university hospital in Brazil. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Coping strategies were identified by the Folkman and Lazarus Inventory of Coping Strategies and statistically compared to the sociodemographic data of family members and patients' clinical data. RESULTS Coping strategies focused on emotion were the most used, especially those attributed to the escape-avoidance factor. There was a significant association (p < 0.05) between women and the use of adaptive strategies focused on the problem; less education and lower income with maladaptive strategies focused on emotion; second-degree relatives and the positive reassessment factor; participants involved in religious activities and the social support factor. Regarding the clinical variables, patients admitted to the intensive care unit for more than seven days showed an association (p < 0.05) with the social support factor. CONCLUSION Family members used adaptive coping strategies more focused on emotion. Additionally, the lower the educational and economic levels, the greater the use of maladaptive strategies focused on emotion.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the practices of novice graduated nurses in view of their social representations on intensive care to the critical patient provided in non-critical patient units. Method: a qualitative research, based on social representations, with 26 novice graduated nurses at a private university in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). Data collection made between 2016 and 2017 by a semi-structured interview and lexical analysis by Alceste software. Results: the context of the Intensive Care Unit influences social representations, which mobilizes identity aspects of this environment that stereotype the ward as a disorganized place and that does not have material resources and trained professionals. Thus, when novice undergraduates act and despite the effort and dedication fail to transfer the patient, fear and lack of confidence are exacerbated, resulting in actions that can bring risks to the patient. Conclusion: there are stereotypes in relation to the clinic that limit the care actions of the novice undergraduates in relation to the critical patient, and should be re-signified in generalist education. It is recommended to develop follow-up programs for novice graduated nurses.

Resumo Objetivo Analisar o ambiente da prática de enfermagem em unidades de terapia intensiva. Métodos Estudo descritivo, de abordagem quantitativa, realizado com 209 profissionais de enfermagem de três hospitais de ensino brasileiros. O ambiente da prática de enfermagem foi avaliado através da Practice Environment Scale. Os dados foram analisados descritivamente, assumindo nível de significância de 5% (p<0,05). O coeficiente Alfa de Cronbach foi utilizado para examinar a consistência interna dos construtos. Resultados Os profissionais de enfermagem consideraram desfavoráveis quatro das cinco dimensões do ambiente da prática profissional: participação dos enfermeiros na discussão dos assuntos hospitalares; fundamentos de enfermagem voltados para a qualidade do cuidado, habilidade, liderança e suporte dos coordenadores/supervisores de enfermagem aos enfermeiros/equipe de enfermagem; e adequação da equipe e de recursos. Apenas a dimensão relações colegiais entre profissionais de enfermagem e médicos apresentou avaliação positiva. Enfermeiros reconheceram mais fortemente atributos desfavoráveis no ambiente de prática do que técnicos de enfermagem. Conclusão O ambiente mostrou-se desfavorável para a prática dos profissionais de enfermagem. Esforços são necessários para tornar o ambiente de prática mais atrativo aos profissionais de enfermagem, e assim estimular melhorias na qualidade e na segurança da assistência prestada.
