Abstract Introduction: One of the main aspects in the fight against tuberculosis are the actions developed in Primary Health Care (PHC). At this level of care, the nurse's continuous contact through the nursing consultation allows them to maintain a relationship with the sick population. Regarding the nurse-patient relationship for establishing a bond and the compliance with tuberculosis treatment, we understand the importance of Imogene King's theoretical framework for structuring the nurse-patient interaction and offering a dynamic for this process. Objective: To analyze the nurse-tuberculosis patient relationship based on Imogene King's Theory of Goal Achievement. Method: A descriptive study with a qualitative approach, with 14 PHC nurses, selected by convenience. Data were collected from August to November 2018 through semi-structured interviews based on Imogene King's Meta-Oriented Nursing Record. The data were analyzed qualitatively using the IRAMUTEQ software. The research was approved by the Ethics Committee. Results: After the analysis, four classes emerged: 1) relationship established on the basis of welcoming; 2) nurse-tuberculosis patient relationship and the support of other professionals and family members; 3) relationship established towards treatment compliance; and 4) relationship established to confront prejudice associated with tuberculosis. Conclusion: The welcoming, the family, and the bond between the professional, the patient and Primary Health Care team strengthen the coping with the disease and reinforce the compliance with the pharmacological treatment.

Validating the Effectiveness of the Patient-Centered Cancer Care Framework by Assessing the Impact of Work System Factors on Patient-Centered Care and Quality of Care: Interview Study With Newly Diagnosed Cancer Patients.

BACKGROUND: Patients with cancer who have recently been diagnosed have distinct requirements compared to cancer survivors. It is crucial to take into account their unique needs to ensure that they make informed decisions and are receptive to the care provided. OBJECTIVE: This study suggested a framework titled Effectiveness of Patient-Centered Cancer Care that considers the needs of newly diagnosed patients with cancer and related work system factors. This study investigated how work system factors influence the perceptions of patient-centered care, quality of care, and associated outcomes among newly diagnosed patients with cancer. Patient-centered care is defined in terms of workload and communication considerations, whereas the quality of care is assessed through indicators such as trust in physicians, satisfaction with care, and perceptions of technology. METHODS: This study used qualitative data collected through interviews with newly diagnosed patients with cancer (N=20) right after their first visits with their physicians. Thematic analysis was conducted to validate the 5 hypotheses of the framework, mapping the interactions among quality of care, patient-centered care, and work system factors. RESULTS: We found that workload and patient-centered communication impact the quality of care and that the work system elements impact the patient-centeredness (workload and communication) and the quality of care (trust in physicians, satisfaction with care, and perception of technology use). CONCLUSIONS: Qualitatively validating the proposed Effectiveness of Patient-Centered Cancer Care framework, this study demonstrated its efficacy in elucidating the interplay of various factors. The framework holds promise for informing interventions geared toward enhancing patients' experiences during their initial visits after diagnosis. There is a pressing need for heightened attention to the organizational design, patient processes, and collaborative efforts among diverse stakeholders and providers to optimize the overall patient experience.

E2EE enhanced patient-centric blockchain-based system for EHR management.

To secure sensitive medical records in the healthcare clouds, this paper proposes an End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) to enhance a patient-centric blockchain-based system for electronic health record (EHR) management. The suggested system with a focus on the patient enables individuals to oversee their medical records within various involved parties by authorizing or withdrawing permission for access to their records. Utilizing the inter-planetary file system (IPFS) for record storage is chosen due to its decentralized nature and its ability to guarantee the unchangeability of records. Then an E2EE enhancement maintains the medical data integrity using dual level-Hybrid encryption: symmetric Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and asymmetric Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) cryptographic techniques. The proposed system is implemented using the Ethereum blockchain system for EHR data sharing and integration utilizing a web-based interface for the patient and all users to initiate the EHR sharing transactions over the IPFS cloud. The proposed system performance is evaluated in a working system prototype. For different file sizes between 512 KB to 100 MB, the performance metrics used to evaluate the proposed system were the time consumed for generating key, encryption, and decryption. The results demonstrate the proposed system's superiority over other cutting-edge systems and its practical ability to share secure health data in cloud environments.

[The use of standardized nursing languages in electronic medical records: an exploratory study on opportunities, limitations, and strategies]. / L'uso del linguaggio standardizzato infermieristico nelle cartelle cliniche elettroniche: studio esplorativo su opportunità, limiti e strategie.

. The use of standardized nursing languages in electronic medical records: an exploratory study on opportunities, limitations, and strategies. INTRODUCTION: Standardized nursing languages (SNLs) have found increasing application in electronic medical records in recent years. In Italy their use is still uneven and accompanied by a silent debate between positions 'against' and 'for' their use. AIM: To render visible the debate regarding SNLs in Italy, and the strategies to consider when digitized records are based on a SNL. METHOD: Data has been collected through audio-recorded semi-structured interviews, selecting three Italian nursing professors, four managers representing Italian healthcare settings that used a SNT and a representative of the Central committee of the National federation of orders of nursing professions. The thematic approach was used to analyze the data. RESULTS: Participants reported having introduced digitized records based on nursing diagnoses, integrated with the Nursing Interventions Classification System and Nursing Outcome Classification, Clinical Care Classification System, Nursing Sensitive Outcomes or mixed models. Divergent aspects emerge regarding: (1) using nursing languages vs a common language to other healthcare professions; (2) planning care vs enhancing clinical reasoning; (3) measuring nursing care vs accepting the variability of the practice, and (4) making documentation efficient vs dedicating more time. Some convergences have emerged and a set of indications for introducing electronic records when based on standardized languages. CONCLUSIONS: The introduction of electronic documentation requires the use of homogeneous languages. The debate on the potential and limits of SNL is still open and requires reflection among researchers, trainers, clinicians, and coordinators/managers of nursing care regarding the choices to be made which may have long-term effects on many nurses.

Trans men and paternal pregnancy: experiences during the pregnancy-puerperal period. / Homem trans e gestação paterna: experiências durante o período gravídico-puerperal.

This study aims to analyze the experiences of a transgender man during the gestational-puerperal period and the perspective of obstetric nurses in training based on the dynamics and organization of obstetric healthcare in a hospital setting. This qualitative study is based on a case study approach, employing interviews and direct observations to collect data. The analysis was based on the theoretical and normative framework of the Nursing Process, the Theory of Caring, and the theoretical/critical perspective of transfeminism. The results are organized into six categories: Transgender man in the context of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum; partnership and parental dimensions; dilemmas faced by the pregnant couple; impressions recorded by the nursing professional; understanding of the case through a theoretical and epistemological lens; implications for healthcare professionals. We underscore the need to promote spaces for continuing education among healthcare professionals and to reformulate legislation in a way that enables the development of public policies based on respect for diversity and equitable care, recognizing the transgender population's specificities in the contexts of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum.

Este estudo objetiva analisar as experiências de um homem trans durante o período gravídico-puerperal e a perspectiva de enfermeiras obstetras em formação, a partir das dinâmicas e da organização dos cuidados de saúde obstétricos em ambiente hospitalar. Trata-se de um estudo de abordagem qualitativa, baseado em estudo de caso, em que utilizou entrevistas e observações diretas para a coleta das informações. A análise foi feita a partir do marco teórico e normativo do Processo de Enfermagem, da Teoria dos Cuidados e da perspectiva teórico/crítica do transfeminismo. Os resultados estão organizados em seis categorias: Homem trans em contexto de gestação, parto e puerpério; parceria e dimensões parentais; dilemas enfrentados pelo casal grávido; impressões registradas pela profissional de enfermagem; compreensão do caso sob a lente teórica e epistemológica; implicações para os profissionais da saúde. Destaca-se a necessidade de promover espaços de educação permanente junto aos profissionais da saúde e reformular legislações de maneira a viabilizar a elaboração de políticas públicas baseada no respeito à diversidade e cuidado equânime, reconhecendo as especificidades da população trans nos contextos da gestação, parto e puerpério.

Intersectionality and challenges in support for chest-feeding transgender men. / Desafios para o suporte à amamentação em homens transgêneros sob à luz da interseccionalidade.

This article tried, from an intersectional standpoint, to grasp the challenges experienced by health professionals and service users of human milk banks in provision of care for transgender men chestfeeding. This exploratory, descriptive qualitative study drew on interviews of six human milk bank staff, who had previously assisted trans men in relation to chestfeeding and two bisexual trans men, who chestfed. The data was treated by thematic analysis, supported by Atlas.ti software, version 9.0. Lacunas in the educational, institutional and management spheres, associated with personal and social issues, reproduce a pre-conceived normative model and disregard the special demands of providing chestfeeding care for the trans population. Cisheteronormativity and "professional supremacy" operate in personal, social and institutional respects to segregate transgender men in lactation support services. Intersectional analysis of these challenges affords an overall view of segregative factors and enables public policies to be introduced to promote social justice.

O objetivo deste artigo é apreender os desafios nas vivências dos usuários e profissionais de Banco de Leite Humano no atendimento a homens transgêneros no contexto da amamentação sob à luz da Interseccionalidade. Estudo qualitativo descritivo-exploratório a partir de entrevistas realizadas com seis profissionais do Banco de Leite Humano, que atenderam previamente homens trans no contexto de amamentação, e dois homens trans bissexuais, que amamentaram ao peito. Os dados foram tratados pela Análise Temática com auxílio do software Atlas.ti versão 9.0. Observam-se lacunas nas esferas educacionais, institucionais e na gestão, associadas a questões pessoais e sociais, que reproduzem um modelo pré-concebido normativo, desconsiderando as singularidades requeridas no atendimento à população trans no contexto da amamentação. A cisheteronormatividade e a supremacia do profissional operam em âmbitos pessoais, sociais e institucionais para a segregação de homens transgêneros nos serviços de suporte à amamentação. A análise interseccional destes desafios permite uma visão global dos fatores de segregação e a implementação de políticas públicas promotoras da justiça social.

[Territorial gradation, multi-professionality and IPA: new levers for monitoring Parkinson's patients]. / Gradation territoriale, pluriprofessionnalité et IPA : nouveaux leviers pour suivre les patients parkinsoniens.

The rapid increase in the number of Parkinson's patients in the population is raising questions about the organization of expert resources. The creation of advanced practice nurses is likely to have an impact on this public health issue, as is the implementation of multi-level care gradation and the prospects for paramedical development.

Detecting goals of care conversations in clinical notes with active learning.

OBJECTIVE: Goals of care (GOC) discussions are an increasingly used quality metric in serious illness care and research. Wide variation in documentation practices within the Electronic Health Record (EHR) presents challenges for reliable measurement of GOC discussions. Novel natural language processing approaches are needed to capture GOC discussions documented in real-world samples of seriously ill hospitalized patients' EHR notes, a corpus with a very low event prevalence. METHODS: To automatically detect sentences documenting GOC discussions outside of dedicated GOC note types, we proposed an ensemble of classifiers aggregating the predictions of rule-based, feature-based, and three transformers-based classifiers. We trained our classifier on 600 manually annotated EHR notes among patients with serious illnesses. Our corpus exhibited an extremely imbalanced ratio between sentences discussing GOC and sentences that do not. This ratio challenges standard supervision methods to train a classifier. Therefore, we trained our classifier with active learning. RESULTS: Using active learning, we reduced the annotation cost to fine-tune our ensemble by 70% while improving its performance in our test set of 176 EHR notes, with 0.557 F1-score for sentence classification and 0.629 for note classification. CONCLUSION: When classifying notes, with a true positive rate of 72% (13/18) and false positive rate of 8% (13/158), our performance may be sufficient for deploying our classifier in the EHR to facilitate bedside clinicians' access to GOC conversations documented outside of dedicated notes types, without overburdening clinicians with false positives. Improvements are needed before using it to enrich trial populations or as an outcome measure.

Oncology nursing specialty across Latin America: struggle and achievements past and present.

BACKGROUND: Latin America (LATAM) is a large region from Mexico to southern Patagonia in Chile and includes most islands in the Caribbean where Spanish is an official language. Efforts to address nursing specialization in the care of patients with cancer throughout the cancer continuum are described in narratives of oncology nursing struggles and achievements from eight Latin American countries. METHODS: Contributions by authors from Mexico, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Brazil and Chile are complemented by interview data (in Spanish by a bilingual medical anthropologist) to share the history and present status in the Dominican Republic, Peru and Argentina. RESULTS: We present stories of the pioneers of oncology nursing and a brief description of health systems in several of the included countries to show the disparate approaches towards cancer control and the context in which the oncology nurses work. We include key demographics and cancer data from the highlighted countries. We follow with descriptions of the formation and importance of oncology nursing associations/societies and share the history of oncology nursing education efforts, scopes of practice and recommendations for improvement in oncology nursing. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the challenges, oncology nurse leaders across LATAM are determined to raise the standards of care with structured specialization education/training, and to create advanced practice oncology nursing roles. It is critical that the achievements of oncology nurses are nationally acknowledged and appropriately compensated by governments and national and local authorities. The future is now for oncology nursing to be recognized as a critical specialized healthcare workforce to effectively address the growing threat of cancer and to ensure optimal control of this public health crisis across the region.

A Patient-Centered Documentation Skills Curriculum for Preclerkship Medical Students in an Open Notes Era.

Introduction: New legislation allows patients (with permitted exceptions) to read their clinical notes, leading to both benefits and ethical dilemmas. Medical students need a robust curriculum to learn documentation skills within this challenging context. We aimed to teach note-writing skills through a patient-centered lens with special consideration for the impact on patients and providers. We developed this session for first-year medical students within their foundational clinical skills course to place bias-free language at the forefront of how they learn to construct a medical note. Methods: One hundred seventy-three first-year medical and dental students participated in this curriculum. They completed an asynchronous presession module first, followed by a 2-hour synchronous workshop including a didactic, student-led discussion and sample patient note exercise. Students were subsequently responsible throughout the year for constructing patient-centered notes, graded by faculty with a newly developed rubric and checklist of best practices. Results: On postworkshop surveys, learners reported increased preparedness in their ability to document in a patient-centered manner (presession M = 2.2, midyear M = 3.9, p < .001), as rated on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = not prepared at all, 5 = very prepared), and also found this topic valuable to learn early in their training. Discussion: This curriculum utilizes a multipart approach to prepare learners to employ clinical notes to communicate with patients and providers, with special attention to how patients and their care partners receive a note. Future directions include expanding the curriculum to higher levels of learning and validating the developed materials.

Experiential learning via a tour on the history of public health in Jerusalem in an epidemiology course for master of science in nursing students: A cross-sectional study.

AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the incorporation of an educational tour into the curriculum for master's nursing students. BACKGROUND: Experiential learning is an educational approach that emphasizes hands-on experiences outside the classroom. In a two-kilometer radius in Jerusalem are historical health institutions, established beginning in the 1830s through the British Mandate, from which much can be learned about the state of public health then and how it shaped modern institutions. DESIGN: This was a cross-sectional study. METHODS: This study utilized the feedback received by students through an evaluation survey sent out after the tour. The survey had questions on overall satisfaction, how the tour contributed to their knowledge, and the appropriateness of the tour as part of the course. Additionally, students were asked if the tour added to their experience and how in an open-ended question. RESULTS: High scores were given for overall satisfaction, contribution to knowledge and the appropriateness of the tour. Additionally, four points were raised in the open-ended question: national pride in healthcare leadership, socio-political aspects and conflicts, the role of funding, and personal inspiration and professional development. CONCLUSIONS: The tour evaluation emphasized the advantages of experiential learning, enabling a deep understanding of the healthcare system's historical development in a multicultural city, as well as lessons for the future.

Nurses' moral courage and related factors: A systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Nurses face various ethical conflicts when taking care of patients, and such conflicts require moral courage. This systematic review was conducted with the aim of investigating moral courage and its related factors among nurses. METHODS: To find related studies, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed. The PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus, Embase and Science Direct databases were searched using keywords such as Courage, Moral Courage, and Nurses, and no lower time limit was imposed when conducting the searches. The identified studies were published between January 2000 and March 2023. Quality of articles was assessed using the STROBE checklist. RESULTS: The pooled sample size for the 19 included studies was 7863. All studies were observational and cross-sectional. The results showed that three categories of factors most related to moral courage are individual, moral, and factors related to the organization. Underlying factors of each category are also provided within this paper. CONCLUSION: Moral courage is an integral part of nursing, which as a profession, is becoming even more challenging with the advancement of science and technology. Therefore, there is a need for nurses and especially nursing managers to be considerate of factors affecting moral courage of nurses, with a view to strengthening the positive factors and reducing the negative impacts.
