Abstract

The theory-practice gap, a significant issue in nursing education, has been a primary concern for student nurses worldwide. Despite its importance, many nursing students struggle to connect theoretical knowledge with clinical practice, leading to gaps in their understanding and skills. This phenomenon has been observed in various countries, including India, the Philippines, and others. This qualitative study aims to investigate the theory- practice gap among selected fourth-year nursing students, exploring the reasons behind the misalignment between theoretical concepts and clinical exposures. The researchers employed a phenomenological research design centered on comprehending people's lived experiences and the phenomena that have influenced them. The researchers interviewed fifteen (15) fourth-year nursing students chosen for the video and audio recording in-depth interview by following the inclusion and exclusion criteria. With this, the researchers sought the assistance of a qualitative expert by utilizing NVivo software to extract significant statements and merge them into themes for thematic analysis. Based on the findings, the discrepancies are caused by several factors: student readiness, equipment availability, unfamiliar procedures, heavy workloads, and adaptability to the clinical settings, in addition to variations between instruction in the skills laboratory and clinical practice. Generally, the study has identified the gaps between integrating theoretical concepts and clinical exposure. Considering the identified gaps, the researchers recommended five nursing programs related to skill enhancements that adapt to changing demands in the healthcare industry, provide long-term knowledge and skills, and develop innovative education strategies that could upgrade the overall quality of nursing care.

Abstract

This study investigates how social engagement impacts third-year nursing students' academic performance and well-being. While social support benefits academic engagement, more research is needed on nursing students’ unique challenges and social experiences. This quantitative correlational study investigated the relationship between social engagements and academic achievements among third-year students. Data were collected through face-to-face surveys using Likert scale questions from 306 participants at a prominent school in Quezon City. Purposive sampling was employed, focusing on students involved in extracurricular activities. Findings revealed that majority of respondents were 21 years old (55.23%), predominantly female (73.86%), and had a weekly allowance below PHP 1,000 (51.31%). Social engagements was generally low, with the highest participation in birthday celebrations (mean: 3.085, "Moderately Engaged") and the lowest in dance troupe activities (mean: 1.428, "Not Engaged at All"). Despite low engagement, students perceived social interactions as beneficial, enhancing academic satisfaction (mean: 3.159, "Agree"), cognitive function (mean: 3.189, "Agree"), and mental health (mean: 3.25, "Agree"). A weak positive correlation was found between social engagement and academic performance (Pearson R = 0.340, p < 0.001). The findings concluded that even limited social interactionl benefits nursing students. To balance academics and social life, researchers recommended promoting extracurricular clubs and wellness programs, acknowledging the importance of social connections for academic success.

Abstract

Introduction: Research in Antibacterial Therapy is vital due to its ability to combat infectious diseases effectively. This medicine was impacted on the world particularly in the public health. Inappropriate or improper antibiotic use contributes significantly to the development and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. To safeguard the future, it must continue to invest in research to combat antibiotic resistance and ensure the efficacy of antibiotics for generations to come. Objective: The time to act is now, for the consequences of inaction are too alarming to contemplate. Hence, the researchers conducted this study to assess the level of awareness of antibacterial therapy among adults. Method: The research design that was used in this study was descriptive and the setting was in a rural area, where it is characterized by its limited access to healthcare facilities providing a suitable setting, to investigate insights into how Antibiotic resistance manifests in undeserved and distant communities. The respondents consist of 50 adults and research sampling that was used in this study was purposive. Result: The results revealed that the majority of the respondents are least aware in terms of the Antibacterial therapy. These adults were evaluated concerning their level of awareness and knowledge about the antibacterial therapy. Furthermore, the respondents are not fully aware of the Antibacterial Therapy. Some of them buy antibiotics without a doctor's prescription and ask for antibiotics from their friends, family, and relatives. They are not also highly aware of the consequences of antibiotic use, such as long hospital days, higher medical costs, and antibiotic resistance. Conclusion: Findings also showed that there is a significant relationship between higher educational attainment and the category of use and misuse of Antibacterial therapy.

Abstract

Introduction: Operating rooms, often referred to as the "heart" of any hospital, demand a unique set of skills, knowledge, and personal attributes from healthcare professionals. Early exposure to healthcare settings is crucial for fostering student confidence and competence, providing them with the tools to manage complex patient situations. Studies show that early clinical exposure helps students enhance their communication, teamwork, and professional identity, giving them firsthand experience with patient care and the healthcare system. This exposure also fosters compassion and a deeper understanding of patient needs. Objective: The study aimed to assess the readiness of the 3rd year nursing students in the operating room, which covers knowledge, Skills, and Attitude (KSA). Method: The descriptive quantitative method was utilized in this study. The study limits its coverage to forty-two (42) 3rd year nursing students at the University of Luzon for the school year 2023-2024 only. Each student was given the same set of questionnaires distributed through an online survey. Results: Findings concluded that various preparation procedures, such as lectures accompanied by return demonstrations, have aided in the preparation of the students for their operating room experience. However, as novices in the operating room, most students lack the coping mechanisms. Clonclusion: stress management techniques needed to cope in the busy world of the operating room.

Abstract

Introduction: With traditional bed bath (TBB) posing time management challenges and disposable wet wipes (DWW) raising environmental concerns, there is a need to explore innovative solutions. Objective: The researchers aimed to assess Innovative Multicompartment BathMan (IMB) compared to TBB and DWW, focusing on convenience, time-saving, and cost-effectiveness, addressing existing gaps in bed bath practices and advancing patient care delivery. Method: A descriptive evaluative comparative design was employed, with 30 registered nurses from a hospital in Angeles City, Philippines as respondents. Data were collected using a modified 5-point Likert scale questionnaire with 7 statements on bed bath methods' convenience, time-saving, and cost-effectiveness. Statistical analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and the Kruskal-Wallis H test. Ethical clearance was obtained from the university ethics board before data collection. Results: Analysis revealed IMB (x̄=3.53) as more convenient compared to TBB (x̄=3.44) and DWW (x̄=3.26). In terms of time-saving, IMB (x̄=3.47) was favored over DWW (x̄=3.45) and TBB (x̄=3.02). While TBB (x̄=3.88) emerged as the most cost-effective method in contrast to IMB (x̄=2.7) and DWW (x̄=2.48). Cost-effectiveness ratings were generally positive across all methods (p-value=<.001). When it comes to convenience, supplies, and effort of use revealed a significant difference among the methods (p-value ≤.050). Conclusion: The study addressed gaps in bed bath practices by enhancing nursing workflows with IMB to make bed baths more convenient and reduce time. The researchers suggested expanding future research to multiple healthcare facilities and a more diverse sample for better generalizability. Healthcare institutions should consider integrating IMB to optimize nursing efficiency and patient outcomes.

Abstract

Introduction: Recent research has highlighted the significant impact of procedural pain on critically ill neonates. However, effective pain management strategies to mitigate long-term negative consequences are still underutilized. Objective: To determine the effect of nurse factors on procedural pain management in neonates performed by neonatal nurses, when controlling organizational context factors and infant factors. Method: This study was cross-sectional correlation design. The participants consisted of 118 Thai NICU nurses. The Data collecting used by a self-report questionnaire. The descriptive statistics and hierarchical multiple regression analysis are used to analyze the data. Result: The findings showed that organizational supportive resources and nurse-physician collaboration had significantly positive effects on pain management in neonates (β = .349, p < .001, and β = .362, p < .001). Gestational age had a significant negative effect on pain management in neonates (β = -.414, p < .001). Knowledge, attitude, and nurses’ experience of infant care had significant positive effects on pain management in neonates (β = .435, p < .001, β = .257, p < .01, and β = .236, p < .01, respectively). When controlling for the organizational context factors and the infant factor, nurse factors still predicted procedural pain management in neonates. Together, the predictor variables explained 54.8% of the total variance of nurses’ pain management in neonates. It can conclude that nurse factors are important predictors of procedural pain management in neonates. Conclusion: Thus, there is a need for nurse empowerment and enhanced knowledge about neonatal pain assessment and management among NICU nurses.

Objective: The aim of the study is to determine the influence of organizational culture (nursing culture, perceived organizational support, work engagement) on the professional quality of life among Filipino immigrant’s nurse educators in the USA. Method: The research is a cross-sectional study using a descriptive non-experimental correlational quantitative design; 204 Filipino immigrants nurse educators were chosen using a convenient purposive sampling technique. Moreover, four adapted online questionnaires utilized Nursing Culture Assessment Tool (NCAT), Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS), Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES-9S) and ProQoL Version V in the study. Result: The demographic profile showed that majority of the Filipino nurse participants belong to middle age groups, mostly female, married, and with master’s degree. Most of the participants have been an educator for less than 10 years, and a full-time nurse educator. Majority of the Filipino nurse educators “agree” with the existence of the six dimensions of nursing culture. Moreover, expectations have the highest influence, followed by teamwork and commitment, however satisfaction is the lowest amongst Filipino nurse educators. Filipino nurse educators perceived the organizational support as “neither agree nor disagree” to which an organization values and supports their contributions and well-being. Conclusion: Majority of the Filipino nurse educators “moderately agree” of their work engagement and involvement. The domains of work engagement showed that dedication has the highest impact, while absorption is the lowest amongst Filipino nurse educators. Majority of the Filipino nurse educators had an “borderline moderate to high” level of compassion satisfaction, “borderline moderate to high” level of compassion fatigue: secondary traumatic stress, and “average or moderate” level of compassion fatigue: burnout

Abstract

Introduction The Belt and Road Initiative has increased international student enrollment in China, bringing challenges like diverse student preparedness and cross-cultural adaptation issues. Effective adaptation is essential for students' academic success and mental health, yet limited research exists on medical students' adaptation in China’s prefectural cities. Objectives This study is to examine the levels of cultural adaptation stress, psychological resilience, loneliness, and coping strategies among international medical students studying in clinical medical centers in China, explore the relationships between these factors, and identify the main challenges they face along with their support needs, providing recommendations for future interventions and policies. Design A convergent mixed methods approach was used, with quantitative data collected via “Questionnaire Star” using scales for Cultural Adaptation Stress, Psychological Resilience, Loneliness, and Coping Style. Qualitative data were gathered through semi-structured focus groups, analyzed thematically. Methods The study was conducted in a medical center in a prefectural city in Sichuan, China, recruiting 25 international students for surveys and 20 for focus groups. Results Mean scores for Acculturative Stress, Resilience, Loneliness, and Coping were 127.4 ± 17.8, 70.0 ± 12.2, 46.2 ± 6.1, and 144.7 ± 15.9, respectively. Coping correlated positively with resilience (r = 0.464, P < 0.05) and negatively with loneliness (r = -0.450, P < 0.05). Four themes emerged: motivations for studying in China, cross-cultural experiences, challenges, and training needs. Conclusion Students from Belt and Road Initiative countries face adaptation challenges in China. Enhancing coping strategies and providing targeted support may improve their cross-cultural adaptation and well-being.
