“…The 15 full-text papers were organised by research target group to lead current and future nurse researchers to their areas of interest. Research participants were as follows: those with cardiovascular disease, [5][6][7][8][9] diabetes mellitus, 10,11 older age; 12,13 those who were young adults, 14 early adolescents, 15 children with special health care needs, 16 people with a stoma, 17 post-partum mothers, 18 and nursing students. 19 Ten studies used power analysis to guide their participant recruitment.…”

This paper reviews recent, nurse-led telehealth research with the goal of describing research findings that provide evidence for practice. Methods: Using an iterative search method, of eight electronic databases, 84 nurse-led research papers were separated into intervention research, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and descriptive research. The main emphasis was on full text analysis of the intervention research. Results: Fifteen intervention research papers reported findings related to cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, older age, young adults, early adolescents, children with special health care needs, people with a stoma, post-partum mothers and nurses. Also reviewed for useable evidence for practice were 10 systematic reviews, two meta-analyses and two papers that described reviews plus meta-analyses. Resuts: Fifty-five papers with descriptive designs are briefly described. Nurse-led intervention research is increasing knowledge about the use of telehealth technology and applications in care delivery. People with healthcare needs do better with individual attention and increased follow-up. People have a tolerance for technology used with them to advance their quality of life and healing but there is a point at which too much technology is overwhelming. Clinical research is a challenge due to the number of extraneous variables that are difficult to control and that can affect a person’s response to the research intervention. Conclusion: Continuation of nurse-led telehealth intervention research will help to ensure that technology used to support and advance care delivery will be evidence-based.

“…With respect to the clinical indicator evidence of the interruption of the healing of the surgical area (sensitivity: 0.88; specificity: 0.99), in the studies conducted by Santana et al (2018) and Rembold, Santana, Lopes, and Melo (2020) this indicator also presented a high prognostic value for delayed surgical recovery.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study was to analyze the prognostic capacity of the clinical indicators of a delayed surgical recovery nursing diagnosis throughout the hospital stay of patients having cardiac surgery. Design A prospective cohort design was adopted. A sample of inpatients undergoing elective cardiac surgery was followed during the immediate preoperative period and hospitalization. This research was conducted in the southeast region of Brazil at a national reference institution that treats highly complex diseases and performs cardiac surgeries. Data were collected from July 2017 to July 2018. Methods At the end of 1 year of data collection, 181 patients were followed in this study. The Kaplan‐Meier method was used to calculate the survival time related to delayed surgical recovery. In addition, an extended Cox model of time‐dependent covariates was adjusted to identify the clinical signs that influenced the change in the nursing diagnosis status. Results A delayed surgical recovery nursing diagnosis was present in 23.2% of the sample studied. With an expected length of stay of 8 to 10 days, most new cases of delayed surgical recovery were observed on the 10th postoperative day, and the survival rate after this day was decreased until the 29th postoperative day, when the nursing diagnosis no longer appeared. Interrupted healing of the surgical area, loss of appetite, and atrial flutter were indicators related to an increased risk for delayed surgical recovery. Conclusions Timely recognition of selected clinical indicators demonstrates a promising prognostic capacity for delayed surgical recovery. Clinical Relevance Accurate identification of prognostic factors allows nurses to identify early signs of postoperative complications. Consequently, the professional can develop an individualized plan of care, aiming at the satisfactory clinical recovery of the patient.

Objective: Analyze the knowledge generated about telenursing related to the roles of nurses (care, education and management) in Latin America and the Caribbean, based on scientific evidence. Methods: Integrative review, for the years 2009 to 2019, in scientific databases from Latin America and the Caribbean. Twelve articles were selected. Results: Nine studies focused on care and three on education. The information and communication technology used in the studies was telephony directed toward non-communicable diseases. There were concerns about the remote communication process. With respect to education, two focused on educating health teams and one on educating patients. Conclusion: It is necessary to conduct studies on telenursing that generate changes in care practices, explore information and communication technology resources and provide communication training focused on this new care model.
