RESUMO
AIMS: This study investigated the status and influencing factors of organizational silence among 624 nurses in general hospitals in eastern coastal cities of China. METHODS: This study followed STROBE guidelines. During the period from January to April 2024, the researchers investigated 624 clinical in-service nurses in terms of general information, employee silence behavior, work engagement, and peer support, and analyzed the related factors affecting nurses' organizational silence. RESULTS: The total average score of nurses' organizational silence was (33.88 ± 6.88), and the total score of work engagement was (69.23 ± 10.76); The total score of the colleague support scale was (90.02 ± 13.72), which was at the medium level. Univariate analysis showed that the scores of organizational silence of 610 nurses had statistical differences in departments, employment methods and professional titles (P < 0.05); Pearson correlation analysis showed that nurses' work engagement (r=-0.530, P < 0.05), perceived colleague support a scale (r=-0.530, P < 0.05), colleague support B scale (r=-0.363, P < 0.05) were negatively correlated with organizational silence; Multiple linear regression analysis showed that department (ß'value = 0.256, P = 0.001), employment mode (ß'value = 0.115, P = 0.001), professional title (ß'value = 0.741, P = 0.023), working years (ß'value = 1.1110, P = 0.000), work engagement (ß'value6.182, P = 0.000), colleague support scale A (ß'value = 0.198, P = 0.003), and scale B (ß'value = 0.485, P = 0.001) were the main influencing factors of nurses' organizational silence behavior. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, nurses' organizational silence is at the medium level, and nursing workers with low outpatient service, contract system, professional title and working years, less work investment and poor support from colleagues are prone to silence behavior.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The complexity of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the stress caused by the disease is associated with a high incidence of feeding intolerance. However, the factors influencing feeding incontinence in patients with SAP are diverse. AIMS: To systematically analyse relevant studies that investigate the occurrence of feeding intolerance in patients with SAP, identify the relevant factors of feeding intolerance in such patients and provide a reference for nursing staff to develop relevant intervention measures. DESIGN AND METHODS: This scoping review followed the approach proposed by Arksey and O'Malley. Seven electronic databases were searched from their establishment until August 2023. This included research on the factors influencing feeding intolerance in patients with SAP, determining research questions, completing literature screening and quality evaluation, extracting data and summarizing and analysing the data. The PRISMA extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR) statement has also been included. RESULTS: A total of 23 articles were included. The factors influencing feeding intolerance in patients with SAP included the patient's condition, disease, treatment, feeding management and follow-up care. CONCLUSIONS: The factors affecting feeding intolerance in patients with SAP are multifaceted. A personalized nursing care plan should be developed based on relevant risk factors to improve feeding tolerance and comfort in patients with SAP and shorten hospitalization time. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Intensive care nurses should identify the risk factors for feeding intolerance in patients with SAP and implement appropriate interventions. To identify the risk factors, nurses must be updated with courses and training. Moreover, a systematic feeding intolerance prediction program can help intensive care nurses effectively identify the risk factors for feeding.
