“…APNs led telehealth innovations (Lim et al., 2020; McLachlan et al., 2021; Ross & Meier, 2021; Santos et al., 2021; Waterman, 2020) or contributed to team‐based models of telehealth care (Ambrosini et al., 2020; Blazey‐Martin et al., 2020; de Peralta et al., 2021; Israilov et al., 2020; Khairat et al., 2021; Lewis et al., 2020; Sinha et al., 2020). Four articles provided APNs with guidance on the use of telehealth (Elbarbary et al., 2020; Schroeder, 2020; Smith & Raskin, 2021; Wall‐Haas, 2021).…”

“…In hospitals, APNs were involved in telehealth programs to promote early detection and management of deteriorating patients with COVID‐19 (Santos et al., 2021), provide palliative care assessments and support (Israilov et al., 2020), and deliver follow‐up care for discharged patients with COVID‐19 (Lewis et al., 2020). In primary care, clinical nurse specialists led an innovation offering 24/7 diabetes management support to providers and developed a guidance document on managing patients with diabetes who had COVID‐19 or other illnesses (Waterman, 2020).…”

“…Patient satisfaction was evaluated in nine articles related to telehealth innovations and found to be positive, except in the study by Lim et al (2020) where only 63% of patients were satisfied with the administrative aspects of telehealth. Adverse events or complications were assessed in four articles, of which none were reported (Giver et al, 2022;Lim et al, 2020;McLachlan et al, 2021;Santos et al, 2021). A multifaceted cystectomy service for patients with bladder cancer had a 30-day mortality of 0% and 30-day grade 3 complications of 8% (Nelson et al, 2020).…”

Aim:Identify and map international evidence regarding innovations led by or involving advanced practice nurses in response to COVID‐19.BackgroundCOVID‐19 necessitated unprecedented innovation in the organization and delivery of healthcare. Although advanced practice nurses have played a pivotal role during the pandemic, evidence of their contributions to innovations has not been synthesized. Evidence is needed to inform policies, practices, and research about the optimal use of advanced practice nurses.MethodsA scoping review was conducted and reported using the PRISMA‐ScR checklist. Electronic databases were searched for peer‐reviewed articles published between January 2020 and December 2021. Papers were included that focused on innovations emerging in response to COVID‐19 and involved advanced practice nurses.ResultsFifty‐one articles were included. Four themes were identified including telehealth, supporting and transforming care, multifaceted approaches, and provider education. Half of the articles used brief and mostly noncomparative approaches to evaluate innovations.ConclusionThis is the first synthesis of international evidence examining the contributions of advanced practice nurses during the pandemic. Advanced practice nurses provided leadership for the innovation needed to rapidly respond to healthcare needs resulting from COVID‐19. Innovations challenged legislative restrictions on practice, enabled implementation of telehealth and new models of care, and promoted evidence‐informed and patient‐centered care.Implications for practiceAdvanced practice nurses led, designed, implemented, and evaluated innovations in response to COVID‐19. They facilitated the use of telehealth, supported or transformed models of care, and enabled health providers through education, mentorship, and mental health support.Implication for policyAdvanced practice nurses are a critical resource for innovation and health system improvement. Permanent removal of legislative and regulatory barriers to their full scope of practice is needed.

The physician assistant/associate (PA) profession originated in the United States; PAs play an active role in alleviating the shortage of health and medical resources and improving the quality of medical care. This position has been introduced in and developed by many countries. Based on extensive literature research, this article summarizes the three main features of PAs, namely, that there is professional education for training PAs, the PA is an independent and exclusive professional type and PAs assist doctors in completing medical work. With reference to the innovative concept of the PA profession, this article summarized the existing “assistant” position in China that is similar to the PA position, compared it with the three features of PAs, revealed the shortcomings of the existing “assistant” position in China, provided a reference for the development of relevant careers in China, and provided solutions for solving the problems of medical and health resources in China.
