Developing and Pilot Testing E-Learning Training for Pediatric Nursing Burn Care.

Background Nurses caring for pediatric patients who have burns need to be properly trained to provide optimal care. The aims of this pilot study were to (1) develop a pediatric nursing burn care e-learning training for novice nurses; (2) assess the feasibility and acceptability of this educational intervention; and (3) evaluate the preliminary effects of this intervention on novice nurses' knowledge of pediatric nursing burn care. Method A quasi-experimental, one-group, pre-test-posttest design was used. Results Feasibility was achieved because all of the participants completed the study. A significant difference was observed in the mean knowledge level of the novice nurses from before training to after training (87.7% ± 8.7% vs. 58.6% ± 14.5%; p < .001). The novice nurses' had a mean satisfaction of 95.5% after the intervention. Conclusion This new, evidence-based pediatric nursing burn care e-learning training appeared to be feasible. The novice nurses found it to be satisfactory, and it improved their knowledge regarding pediatric burn care. [J Contin Educ Nurs. 2022;53(5):232-240.].

The Road to Family Resiliency: A Case Report of a Family's Experiences Following Adolescent Stroke.

PURPOSE: This study generated an understanding of familial resiliency following an adolescent's stroke and what resiliency-related outcomes were important to this family. DESIGN AND METHODS: A qualitative case study design was used to collect data during an in-person interview. The interview was transcribed verbatim and analyzed using thematic analysis. FINDINGS: Participants' narratives revealed that reengaging and establishing new activities, reconstructing identities, and changing perceptions regarding health and life itself were important resiliency-related outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: The findings from this case study highlight innovative strategies that can be used to facilitate resiliency during strenuous times in a family's life, such as following an adolescent's stroke. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Clinicians and service providers have the opportunity to help facilitate resiliency by identifying which protective factors and positive outcomes are most important to a family following an adolescent's stroke, allowing clinicians to assist in achieving these outcomes. This research illustrates ways for families to convert resources into personally meaningful resiliency-related outcomes. Further research is needed to study familial resiliency as a part of an intervention to promote occupational engagement.

Transition in acquired brain injury youth (TrABI-Y): a systematic literature review protocol.

INTRODUCTION: Acquired brain injury (ABI) in paediatrics refers to children born with a neurological deficit, which will lead to a chronic neurological disorder. As advances in medical paediatric health progress, we are seeing these ABI youth transitioning into adult healthcare services while also going through different life events. Despite the growing number of young adult patients, access to transition programmes to facilitate the transition process is still limited and evidence on the effectiveness of these programmes is inconclusive. The purpose of this paper is to provide the protocol for an upcoming systematic literature review on this important issue. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The start of this systematic literature review is planned for 1 October 2019 and will end on 31 December 2021. According to the PICO framework developed, the Population and the Problem of interest (P) will include children, adolescents and young adults (0-18 years) diagnosed with ABI. The selected articles will have to involve an Intervention (I) relating to the healthcare of this population or life transitions from paediatric to adult-oriented care. Studies will be included if a Comparator (C) intervention was used. The expected Outcomes (O) will have to report quantitative or qualitative health-related outcomes post-transition. This comprehensive search of peer-reviewed literature will include articles published between 2010 and 2020. The databases to be searched include Medline, All EBM Reviews, Embase, PsycINFO and CINAHL. The selected articles will be appraised using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. A synthesis of the findings will be drafted to identify the effectiveness of available transition programmes as well as predictors, factors and determinants involved in the transition process. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This project is not associated with direct individuals. The dissemination plan includes strategies such as using this systematic literature review to develop a research project on transition that will be published.
