“…Hence, during the transition period, medical staff should strive to improve the psychological and emotional status of caregivers. The interventions, such as relocation stress management according to disease characteristics and relocation‐related needs have been taken to promote patient rehabilitation and to improve the well‐being of patients and family caregivers, which has been proved to be effective and practical for patients and family caregivers in ICU (Lee et al, 2017).…”

“…Kon et al (2016) have suggested that scientific implementation of ICU sharing decision making contributed to reduce caregivers' decision‐making pressure, alleviate the dilemma of decision making, and promote decision‐making consistency. Therefore, recommendations are as follows: family caregivers and related nursing staff of general ward should participate in the decision‐making meeting organised by ICU, 1 to 3 days before patients' discharge from ICU; pre‐transfer education led by ICU liaison nurses; provision of information brochure of ICU transfer for family caregivers (Lee et al, 2017; Muehlschlegel et al, 2015). Considering these factors, further research must be carried out to explore and build the applicability of the ICU transfer of shared decision making in nursing practice.…”

Aim: To explore the family caregivers' experiences and needs of transitional care during the transfer from an intensive care unit to a general ward in China. Background:The transfer of patients from the intensive care unit to the ward is a vulnerable time for patients and caregivers, exposing the risk of readmission and death. However, there are few qualitative studies on the family caregivers' views of transitional care for their loved ones in China.Methods: With a qualitative research design, 15 interviews were conducted with 15 family caregivers of hospitalized patients transferred from the neurosurgery ICU to the general ward. Colaizzi's (1978) method of data analysis was performed using the NVivo 11.0 software. Results:Based on data analysis, four themes were obtained: perception of transfer decision, the experience of transitional care, the obstacles to maintaining care efficiency and demand for transitional care. Conclusion:In order to enhance the continuity of care and improve patient safety during the transfer from an ICU to a general ward in China, priorities should be given to the implementation of effective strategies and methods, including providing psychological and emotional support, encouraging active participation of caregivers, and various communication and collaboration procedures. Implications for Nursing Management:The findings from this study can be used as a guide to better preparation and awareness among health care professionals to achieve the much-needed demands of family caregivers, as well as the increased quality of transitional care.

Background: Transition in the health system is associated with the movement of the patient between clinical units and between hospitals, This is a complex process with several potential challenges including medical errors, adverse events, increased costs and patient dissatisfaction. Evidence shows that there is a need for greater clarity regarding the concept of transition. Objectives: The present Study was conducted to clarify the core elements of transition in patients admitted to the ICU.Methods: Walker and Avant's eight-step model was used to guide this concept analysis to provid a comprehensive definition of transition. A Literature search was conducted on CINAHL, Scopus, Pubmed, and Google scholar using the following keywords: transition, intensive care unit, transition care, patient transfer and transition process. Thus, after an extensive review of resources published in the years 2000-2020, articles related to this concept were examined based on the inclusion criteria. Definitions, properties, applications, consequences and empirical references of the concept of transition were extracted.Results: Transition is a complex, multifaceted concept with defining attributes: Critical points and events, disturb normal life, passage of change, instability and un-anticipated changes, Multiple needs, Inadequate continuity of care, Poor coordination of care and communication among health care providers, patients and families, multiple factor, multiple professionals, Awareness, Engagement And Adaptation. The differences in the response to transition according to the patient's condition or position (beliefs, attitudes, socioeconomic status, willingness and knowledge) and environmental conditions (the status of communication and support from the community) lead to the development of confidence, adaptation, recovery from critical illness and return to normal life or disability and other complications.Conclusion: The transition is a process of progressive change and the adaptation requires training and environmental changes to improve and develop new skills for transition. Nurses play a supportive and complementary role in successful transition of patients. Therefore, studies need to focuse on the evaluation of nurses' perceptions of patient transition and the consequences and outcomes. The result of this study provide a definition of transition that is relevant and useful for clinical research and practice in healthcare setting.
