Catheter‐associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is a common complication associated with indwelling urinary catheters, frequently used in healthcare settings. Nurses play a critical role in preventing CAUTI, as they are often responsible for inserting, maintaining and removing urinary catheters. Therefore, it is important to comprehensively assess nurses' level of knowledge about CAUTIs and the variables that influence their application of best practices and recommendations for preventing these infections. The PRISMA principles were used to conduct a literature search for relevant research publications across several online databases (Web of Science, PubMed, MEDLINE and Scopus). The quality of these studies was evaluated using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. There were 397 research articles, however only 21 articles were included after the screening. The majority of participants possessed diplomas ranging from 3% to 88.2%. In addition, the percentage of nurses with bachelor's degree's ranges from 11.80% to 100%. Moreover, 23.90% of registered nurses hold a master's degree. Most nurses had between 1 and 5 and more than 5 years of experience. Nurses held good/adequate and average knowledge and practices regarding prevention and control of CAUTIs. Furthermore, age, gender, work experience, professional experience, in‐service training, CAUTI prevention guidelines, time, equipment, personnel availability and work unit were all identified barriers. While continuing/in‐service education and self‐guided modules served as facilitators for the prevention of CAUTIs. Meanwhile, studies were found of good methodological quality. Improving nurses' knowledge and practice towards preventing CAUTI is crucial to reducing the prevalence of the infection and improving patient outcomes. Implementing evidence‐based interventions can help bridge the gap in knowledge and practice among nurses, ultimately leading to better patient care and outcomes.

“…However, the low number of RRS events where physicians/APP responded ( n = 6) does not support physician/APP presence as an explanation for low protocol use. Nurse-led care protocols are regarded as empowering (Olson-Sitki et al, 2015; Rohlik et al, 2021) but adoption into clinical practice varies by care setting (Blodgett & Sheets, 2021), years of clinical experience (Blackwood & Wilson-Barnett, 2007), and degree of risk associated with the clinical activity (Vázquez-Calatayud et al, 2020). Use of care protocols by RRTs has not been described in the literature before and is an exciting intervention for consideration in future investigation by RRS researchers.…”

Rapid Response Systems at a Long-Term Acute Care Hospital

Rapid Response Systems (RRS) improve patient outcomes at large medical centers. Little is known about how RRS are used in other medical settings. The purpose of this exploratory study was to describe RRS events at a long-term acute care hospital (LTACH). We conducted a retrospective review of 71 RRS event records at an urban 50-bed Midwestern LTACH. Measures included demographic data, triggering mechanisms, contextual factors, mechanism factors, and clinical outcomes. Of patients who experienced a RRS event, median age was 71 (62, 80) years; 52.1% were female; most ( n = 49, 69%) were “full code.” Most ( n = 41, 58%) events occurred during the daytime. The most common trigger was “mental status changes/unresponsiveness.” Registered nurses were the most frequent activator ( n = 19, 26.8%) and responders ( n = 63, 60.6%). Median duration of RRS events was 14 (6, 25) minutes. Most patients stabilized and their condition improved ( n = 54, 76.1%). RRS can be expanded and modified to the LTACH population.

“…Nurses should be educated about the prevention of urinary infections and should update their knowledge. Additionally, nurses should use this knowledge in their daily practice to maintain effective patient care (Aytac, Naharcı, & Oztunc, ; Olson Sitki, Kirkbride, & Forbes, ; Orucu & Geyik, ; Wilson et al., ; Yuceer & Demir, ). In this study, we observed that the increase in final test scores of the nurses when compared to the pretest results was statistically significant.…”
