“…However, few studies have been conducted on the nursing skills in radiation emergencies, and the accumulated expertise is very limited. In addition, Yoshida et al (2020) found that Japanese nursing students lacked knowledge about the management of radiation‐related disasters in their undergraduate education. Hence, they showed greater fear of radiation‐related disasters compared with American students.…”

Aims To map the nursing skills required for different types of disasters. Design This was a scoping review of research studies conducted between July and August 2021. We conducted a systematic literature search of nine electronic databases from inception till July 2021, and an updated search was done in April 2022. This review is based on the methodological framework of Arksey and O'Malley (2005), which was further refined by the Joanna Briggs Institute. Data Sources A range of electronic databases was searched systematically, including CINAHL, Cochrane, Embase, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and Ichushi‐Web. Articles published in Chinese, English and Japanese were selected for the review. Review Methods The PCC model was used to frame the inclusion criteria. Studies were screened, appraised and extracted by two reviewers, and the study findings were narratively synthesized. Results We identified nursing skills for five types of natural disasters including (1) earthquakes, (2) typhoons, (3) tsunamis, (4) marine disasters and (5) infectious diseases and three man‐made disasters: (1) radiation disasters, (2) bioterrorism and (3) war. Among these, there are five types of common professional skills nurses are required to possess including casualty triage, observation and monitoring, basic first aid techniques, psychological care and communication skills. In addition, it was shown that different disasters require different specific professional skills. Conclusion This scoping review explored the disaster nursing skills required for eight types of disasters and provides evidence for future education and training. Further research is needed to build more accurate scenario‐based simulation training programs to provide more insights into future disaster precision nursing. Impact This scoping review provides evidence for future education and training in disaster nursing to improve nurses’ knowledge and competencies in dealing with the different types of disaster situations.

“…The results of the current study are in line with research on knowledge and perception of radiation risk for nursing students after the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant disaster in Japan, which found that there was a relationship between knowledge and perception. 28 The existence of adequate knowledge can improve understanding and minimize the occurrence of misperceptions. Other studies on risk perception and level of disease knowledge also found similar results.…”

Introduction Integrated and patient-focused healthcare is urgently needed, and there is an important role for case managers in implementing them. However, the understanding of healthcare providers, especially nurse anesthetists, about the role of case managers is still varied and is often considered only as a complement to hospital accreditation. This study aimed to determine the factors that influence the nurse anesthetist’s perception of the role of the case manager. Methods This cross-sectional study involved 369 nurse anesthetists who were selected using cluster sampling. Data collection was done using Google Forms. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression to identify the factors that influence the nurse anesthetists’ perception of the role of the case manager. Results From a total of 369 respondents, most (60%) have a positive perception of case managers. Marital status (AOR = 2.3; 95% CI: 1.27–4.15) and knowledge (AOR = 3.2; 95% CI: 2.03–5.07) were significant predictors of the nurse anesthetist’s perception of the role of the case manager. Discussion Even though the majority of nurse anesthetists have positive perceptions, socialization to increase knowledge about case managers is needed to reduce misperceptions about the role of case managers.

“…The survey results showed that Japanese nursing students had little knowledge of radiation and had a great fear of X-rays. They believed that receiving appropriate radiation knowledge education can effectively reduce risk perception and thus reduce fear [ 40 ]. Following the outbreak of COVID-19 in late 2019, papers on COVID-19-related risk perception also exploded.…”

This paper used 1526 works from the literature on disaster risk perception from 2000 to 2020 in the Web of Science core collection database as the research subject. The CiteSpace knowledge graph analysis tool was used to visual analyze the country, author, institution, discipline distribution, keywords, and keyword clustering mapping. The paper drew the following conclusions. Firstly, disaster risk perception research has experienced three stages of steady development, undulating growth, and rapid growth. Secondly, the field of disaster risk perception was mainly concentrated in the disciplines of engineering, natural science, and management science. Thirdly, meteorological disasters, earthquakes, nuclear radiation, and epidemics were the main disasters in the field of disaster risk perception. Residents and adolescents were the main subjects of research in the field of disaster risk perception. Fourthly, research on human risk behavior and risk psychology and research on disaster risk control and emergency management were two major research hotspots in the field of disaster risk perception. Finally, the research field of disaster risk perception is constantly expanding. There is a trend from theory to application and multi-perspective combination, and future research on disaster risk perception will be presented more systematically. The conclusion can provide a reference for disaster risk perception research, as well as directions for future research.
