ABSTRACT
This study was designed to identify nursing research priorities in burn care. The Delphi technique of sequential questionnaires was used for data collection. Ninety-four participants completed four rounds of questionnaires. One hundred and one research questions were identified, and priorities were assigned according to their impact on patient welfare and on the profession of burn nursing. Twenty-two of these research questions concerned psychosocial issues. This group of questions was then analyzed for priority research issues. The top five ranked questions in the psychosocial issues group for impact on patient welfare concerned (1) stress reduction techniques, (2) social reentry strategies, (3) management of psychosis and post-traumatic stress disorder, (4) strategies to assist patients with impaired communication capabilities, and (5) the role of recovered burn survivors in encouraging patient compliance with treatments. Similarly, the top five ranked questions for impact on the profession of burn nursing concerned (1) stress reduction strategies, (2) coping techniques for burn survivors, (3) management of psychosis and post-traumatic stress disorder, (4) nursing's supportive role in regard to "do not resuscitate" orders, and (5) coping strategies to be used with patients who express a desire to die.
