157 Accesses

There is a timeliness to the publication of an annual review in nursing. This review was focused on nursing research about children under 5 years of age. The review included the nursing identified publications reviewed by Medlars for the five-year period, 1977 to 1981; it was not possible to retrieve all nursing-authored studies in publications if they were not identified as nursing. The review was challenging for several reasons. With the exception of Nursing Research, Research in Nursing and Health , and the Maternal Child Nursing Journal , most nursing publications do not have a standard research reporting style. In addition, there are studies about isolated topics or issues that are hard to fit into a thematic whole.

• Premature Infant
• Nurse Research
• Nursing Practice
• Mental Development
• Auditory Stimulation

Purpose: Priority settings are important to plan and direct future research. The aim of this study was to identify the top ten pediatric and child health nursing research priorities from the perspectives of consumers, community, and healthcare professionals in Western Australia.

Design and methods: This study used an adapted James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership design with three phases. 1) A planning workshop to inform a survey. 2) A survey using five open-ended-questions distributed between October 2020 and January 2021 through social media and healthcare professionals' emails. Responders' statements were analyzed with content analysis. 3) A consensus workshop to finalize and rank the themes.

Results: The planning workshop participants (n = 25) identified gaps such as community child healthcare and confirmed lack of consumer engagement in previous studies. The survey responses (n = 232) generated 911 statements analyzed into 19 themes. The consensus workshop participants (n = 19) merged and added themes, resulting in 16 final themes. The top three ranked themes were: 'access to service', 'mental health and psychological wellbeing', and 'communication'.

Conclusions: The research themes are necessarily broad to capture the wide range of issues raised, reflecting the scope of pediatric and child health nursing.

Practice implications: The priorities will inform future research to be directed to areas of priority for stakeholders who have often not had a say in setting the research agenda.

The focus of the present study was to assess the knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children among staff nurses in selected hospitals at Tumkur, with a view to provide an information booklet. Nursing of a hospitalized child is different from that of an adult. The child lacks decisional power and there are more chances for the nurse to face more ethical and legal problems. Therefore, the nurse needs to be more alert to prevent issues and dilemmas which she encounters mainly in the areas like ICU’s. According to 2006 National Medical Malpractice Statistics, nearly 225,000 individuals die each year in the U.S. because of medical malpractice, which is currently the third leading cause of death in the country. A 2006 follow-up by the Institute of Medicine found that medication errors are among the most common medical mistakes, harming at least 1.5 million people every year.

Introduction

Children are perceived as the happiness of the family. They satisfy parent’s emotional, psychological, social and spiritual needs. They prevent loneliness and boredom and provide affection. Children prolong the parent’s existence into future. They enliven the family life. Practitioners in healthcare delivery have to adhere to a set of ethical principles that guides professional practice and decision making. These principles are common to all the professions in healthcare. The ethical principles that are autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, fidelity etc, are generally accepted by all the members of a profession. A profession’s ethical code states about the groups of expectations, and standards of behavior.

Ethics and law are necessary in nursing because nursing is concerned with providing services that impact human life and health and some of the situations the nurse encounters in practice pose dilemma that if not well handled, may impact negatively on the client and all who are concerned. 4 The first step in preventing entanglement in legal issues is awareness of the law.  

A neonatal nurse is a professional with special training, skills, and knowledge in the care of newborns and their families. The neonatal nurse is accountable to the patient, profession, and the employer. Failure of the neonatal nurse to meet these obligations can result in liability in the profession, liability in the employment, a civil suit, or a criminal conviction. Regardless of the healthcare setting, professional nurses, whether at the bedside or in advanced practice, are morally, ethically, and legally accountable for their nursing judgments and actions. Although most nurses assume they will never be named in a lawsuit, and it is true that few are, their professional actions can be the focus of a suit. An overview of the legal implications found within neonatal nursing practice is presented. Two recent legal cases are presented and discussed to illustrate neonatal nursing and advanced practice liability.

Statistical Techniques with Formulas:

Section I: Description of Sample Characteristics

Table 2.1 shows the age distribution of staff nurses who had participated in the study. Twenty eight nurses were in the age group of 21-25 yrs. Thirty five nurses were in the age group of 26-30yrs, 37 nurses were in the age group of above 30 years. Maximum participants were from the age group of above 30 years and the least number of participants were in the age group of 21-25 years.

The above conical diagram depicts the working hospital distribution of staff nurses. Twenty staff nurses included in the study were from Govt. District hospital, Tumkur, while the remaining 25 staff nurses were from Shridevi hospital, Tumkur.

Fifty of the hundred subjects had no prior in-service education, but a mere 50 attended in-service programs related to legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children.

Table 2.9 shows that majority of the subjects acquired information regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children from pediatrician [42(42%)]. Twenty-eight (28%) received information from health workers, 16 (16%) and 14(14%) subjects received information from journals and mass media respectively.

Assessment of Knowledge of Subjects Regarding Legal and Ethical Concepts in Nursing Care of Children

The above table shows the level of knowledge of the subjects regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children. As per the table, knowledge of the staff nurses regarding legal and ethical concepts was mean 8.66, standard deviation 1.464 and mean percentage score was 57.73%, where a maximum possible score was 15. Considering legal and ethical concepts, the mean was 6.9, standard deviation 1.3, and mean percentage score 57.75%, where the maximum possible score was 12. Considering the section c, mean was 8.54, standard deviation 1.329, and mean % score was 56.93%, where the maximum score was 15. The overall score displayed mean 23.85, SD of 2.272, and a mean score percentage of 23.85%, where the maximum possible score was 42.

Frequency and percentage distribution of samples based on level of knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children 

The above table shows the frequency and percentage distribution of samples based on level of knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children.

Section III

Frequency and percentage distribution of samples based on level of knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children

From the above table 11, professional qualification and working hospital had a significant influence on the knowledge scores of staff nurses on legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children. The remaining characters i.e. age, gender, professional experience, present working area, area of permanent residence, inservice education and source of information were not significantly associated with the knowledge scores of staff nurses.

This chapter presents the major findings of the study and reviews them in relation to the findings from other studies.

The discussion brings the research report to closure. A well-developed discussion section “makes sense” of the research results. This is the most important section of research report.

The findings of the study have been discussed with reference to the objectives and hypothesis stated in the information and findings of other studies.

The present study evaluated the knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children among staff nurses in selected hospitals in Tumkur. This study was descriptive in nature. A total of 100 staff nurses were selected by using non-probability convenient sampling technique from selected hospitals, Tumkur. After the selection of sample, the structured questionnaire method was used with the help of instrument. The data findings have been organized and discussed under the following sections.

“A study to assess the knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children among staff nurses in selected hospitals at Tumkur, with a view to provide an information booklet” which are discussed below: 

It is a descriptive research design, which was conducted by including 100 staff nurses who met the inclusion criteria by non-probability convenient sampling and knowledge was assessed using a structured knowledge questionnaire.

The first objective of the study was to assess the knowledge of staff nurses regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children. The knowledge scores of staff nurses regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children were determined with mean percentage score 56.78%. It showed that the staff nurses had moderate knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children.

The second objective of the study was to find out the association between demographic variables with knowledge scores of legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children. The present study found that the calculated chi-square value for association of knowledge with selected demographic variables like age, gender, professional qualification, professional experience, present working area, area of residence, working hospital, in service education and source of information was found to be significant.

The chi-square test value revealed that there was a significant association of knowledge of staff nurses with selected demographic variables regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children.

The third objective of this study was to develop an information booklet regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children. After collecting the information from the participants, information booklet was distributed and they were satisfied. 

The findings of the present are in accordance with the study conducted to determine the role of the pediatric nurse in promoting pediatric right to consent. The study examined the process involved in obtaining informed consent, focusing on the information booklet of staff nurses’ abilities and legalities related to a child’s right to consent. Most they who have researched when a child may be considered competent to given a valid consent propose that the child must be 14 years old and thus able to think abstractly and consider the risks and benefits of the planned treatment. Qualitative research on this topic revealed that a child’s previous life experiences can influence their ability to comprehend the intervention. This suggests that children less than 14 years of age may be regarded as competent. The confusion around the prevailing legal situation was examined. The study concluded that role of the pediatric nurse is explored to distinguish areas in which the nurse could potentially make a contribution to the process of gaining consent from children. The pediatric nurse’s role as an assessor, educator and evaluator were identified.

The study findings revealed that the knowledge levels of the staff nurses were determined with mean of 23.85 and standard deviation of 2.272. The mean percentage score was computed and it was observed as 56.78%. The results showed that female staff nurses had moderate knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children.

The chi-square test values revealed that there was a significant association between post knowledge test scores of the staff nurses and the selected demographic variables regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children. Hence, hypothesis H 2 was accepted.

Since majority of the staff nurses had moderate knowledge regarding legal and ethical concepts in nursing care of children, education is very essential for their proper decision making and healthy baby in their future.

The information booklet was distributed to the staff nurses which was aimed to provide knowledge to the staff nurses, thereby enabling them to take a correct decision by planning their and having a healthy baby in their future.

Objectives Despite significant reductions in maternal and child mortality over the past few decades, a disproportionate number of global deaths occur in low and middle-income country settings, such as Ethiopia. To prioritize research questions that would generate policy recommendations for better outcomes, we conducted a scoping review that gathers the current knowledge of maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) and illustrates remaining gaps in Ethiopia.

Design Scoping review.

Methods We conducted a search strategy from 1946-2018 in PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the WHO African Index Medicus. The study team of reviewers independently screened titles, abstracts, and full-texts; abstracted data; and reconciled differences in pairs. Descriptive analyses were conducted.

Results We identified 7,829 unique articles of which 2,170 were included. Most MNCH publications in Ethiopia (70.0%) were published in the last decade, 2010-2018. Most studies included children aged one to less than 10 years old (30.5%), women of reproductive age (22.0%), and pregnant women (21.9%); fewer studies included newborns (7.0%), infants (6.6%), and postpartum women (2.9%). Research topics included demographics and social determinants of health (43.4%), nutrition (15.3%), and infectious diseases (13.0%). There were limited studies on violence (1.4%), preterm birth (0.8%), antenatal/postpartum depression (0.7%), stillbirths (0.1%), and accidents (0.1%). Most study designs were cross-sectional (53.6%). A few study designs included prospective cohort studies (5.5%) and randomized control trials (2.3%).

Conclusions This is the first scoping review to describe the landscape of MNCH research in Ethiopia. Understanding the depth of existing knowledge will support the prioritization and development of future research questions. Additional studies are needed to focus on the neonatal, infant, and postpartum populations as well as preterm and stillbirth outcomes.

STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS STUDY

To our knowledge, this is the first published review to have comprehensively described or summarized this body of literature in Ethiopia, allowing for a deeper understanding of the expanse of existing knowledge.

A quality assessment of each study was not feasible due to the broad range of included topics; however, one may be conducted in the future to further refine results.

Although conclusions may not be widely generalizable beyond Ethiopia, this review may inform the need to conduct similar reviews for all sub-Saharan countries to support effective prioritization of future research questions.

Child Health Nursing Dissertation Topics

Published by Owen Ingram at January 3rd, 2023 , Revised On August 16, 2023

Keeping your child healthy and growing starts at birth. Nurses who specialise in child health can help and educate parents about safety, hygiene, and nutrition requirements for children to prevent common childhood illnesses. In this article, we will cover everything from the average salary to the steps to becoming a registered child health nurse.

The field of child health nursing focuses on the care of children from infancy through adolescence. Child health nurses are registered nurses with a midwifery degree and additional training in child health.

Hospitals, clinics, and private practices employ child health nurses worldwide.

Children’s health nurses are divided into two types – those who work in schools and those who work in clinics.

• School-based nurses usually perform routine assessments, administer medication when necessary, identify signs of illness among students and refer them to school personnel for additional assessment. Such nurses use the same skills and techniques home-based nurses require in caring for hospitalised children.
• Hospital-based nurses may supervise children during routine examinations, observe outpatients’ hospitalisations, make rounds with new admissions, and teach patients about self-care.

As a child health nurse, you play a vital role in the lives of young children by providing care and support during some of the most vulnerable times in a child’s life. You also work to prevent illness and promote wellness among children.

In addition to clinical care, you may also have administrative duties such as creating nutritional and diet plans for children with solid research.
