“…Overall, this study acknowledges that a well and organized 2HNR procedure would contribute positively to the entire health care organization's quality and patient safety standards, and staff satisfaction. A more rigorous study needs to be conducted to further explore challenges to the 2HNR practice at the tertiary hospital in Oman, considering the staffing level, structure of the ward, leadership, structured rounding education, ward layout, and workload [11].…”

“…This is supported by Fabry (2014) and Langley (2015) studies which found that intentional rounds causes fewer interruptions and spare of time during nursing activities [4,8]. Moreover, intentional rounds enhances nurses ability to manage their time, as it allows them to continuously assess and prioritize the nursing care, and identify patients concerns early [5,[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18].…”

Nurses are the backbone of healthcare organizations, and they play a crucial role in delivering quality care and ensuring patient safety, and that, in turn, can be achieved through the two hourly purposive nursing rounds (2HNR). The 2 HNR is a structured rounding conducted by the bedside nurses on a one to two hourly bases. It has been associated with increased patient satisfaction and nursing care quality, improved nurse-patient interaction, reduced incidence of fall and call bell frequency, and early identification of patients' needs [1]. The current cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the impact of 2 HNR on nurses' satisfaction at the Royal Hospital, Oman. A total of 513 nurses from general units were surveyed using an online survey questionnaire. The current study revealed that majority of nurses were satisfied with 2HNR. A well and organized 2HNR would contribute positively to the healthcare organization's nurses satisfaction, care quality, and patient safety standards. Direct observation of the participants can be incorporated into the data collection process of similar future studies, to gain more valid and accurate findings.

“…Moreover, lack of timeliness in satisfying the care call request has been shown in the literature to affect levels of patient satisfaction negatively (Mulugeta et al., 2020). In the organizational context, using a call bell for assistance is considered a leading cause of interruption of nursing work (D'antonio et al., 2014).…”

AimThe study aims to analyse the principal causes of patients' care calls and compare differences before and after inpatient beds' technological modernization in a surgical breast oncological ward.DesignA prospective observational study was conducted under the STROBE guidelines. Data were collected from June to September 2022.MethodsStatistical analyses were performed to compare each reason for care calls, by shifts and pre and post‐inpatient bed modernization.ResultsTwo thousand five hundred and fifty‐nine care request calls were analysed during the 202 observed shifts. The most frequent reason was related to the requests for positions.ConclusionTechnological modernization of the beds has not led to effective—positive—changes; on the contrary, it seems at first glance to show an upward trend in calls above all in the short period after the changes.Implications for the profession and/or patient care What problem did the study address? By analysing the principal causes of care calls and comparing the differences before and after inpatient beds' technological modernization, this study evaluates if inpatient gear or device modernization can impact care call requests. What were the main findings? The results show that the most frequent reasons for care calls were position, possession and other. These findings seem not superimposable; the hypothesis supported by the international literature in which the causes relating to potty and pain were found among the main reasons. Where and on whom will the research have an impact? These results could impact the care organizational area in nursing care and could improve care quality, patient satisfaction and safety. Reporting MethodThis prospective observational study was conducted following STROBE guidelines.Patient or Public ContributionAfter adequate information (presentation, design methods and objectives), all unit healthcare staff agreed to collaborate in the study.

“…Although in studies on the improvement of patient satisfaction, proper communication and paying respect to patients have been emphasized, the impact of these programs has not been remarkable [ 5 ]. Despite great efforts, we have not yet been able to improve patients' satisfaction with nursing care [ 6 ]. Therefore, determining the extent to which nursing care promotion can affect patients' satisfaction is very important.…”
