- Most relevant clinical supervision strategies in nursing practicePublication . Pires, Regina; Santos, Margarida Reis; Pereira, Filipe; Rocha, InêsClinical supervision (CS) is a facilitator of professional development and quality of practice, promoting safety and protection of clients, through the adoption of targeted strategies. Portugal has been developing research aiming to design policies that support the implementation of CS based on partnerships between academic and practice nurses. This strategy empowers professionals with skills essential for professional development. The study aims to identify the most relevant CS strategies according to nurses’ perspective. A quantitative and exploratory study was developed. Data were collected from questionnaires between May and October 2012. The convenience sample included 273 nurses working in hospitals (64.3%) and health care centers (35.7%) in Portugal, 83.2% were females, aged between 24-58 years. Nursing professional experience ranged between 1-36 years. The majority of the participants (87.5%) considered CS important to professional development. CS strategies relevance: reflective practice (45.8%); feedback (45.8%); observation (45.1%); continuing education (44,3%); support (41.8%); demonstration (40.7%); individual sessions (37.4%); self-supervision (37.0%); cases analysis with supervision (31.9%); analysis of nursing documentation (30.8%); group cases analysis (22.7%); group sessions (21.6%), reflexive report (16.5%); distance supervision: e-mail (7.7%), phone (7.7%) and skype® (4.0%). The participation of nurses in the design of CS policies is considered meaningful and highly relevant to nursing practice, empowering nurses with qualified skills and contributing to improve the quality of interventions. This research is a valuable input to the development and innovation in nursing, contributing to the design of CS policies based on strategies that nurses consider more appropriate and relevant to practice and professional development.
- Nursing process related to the nursing focus “airway clearance”: a scoping reviewPublication . Gaspar, Luís; Reis, Neuza; Sousa, Paula; Silva, Abel Paiva e; Cardoso, Alexandrina; Brito, Alice; Bastos, Fernanda; Campos, Joana; Parente, Paulo; Pereira, Filipe; Machado, NatáliaBackground: Airway clearance impairment has a significant impact on self-care and quality of life. Identifying clinical data, nursing diagnoses, and nursing interventions is essential to clinical reasoning and enhancing nursing care. This study aims to map the existing evidence on clinical data, nursing diagnoses, and nursing interventions addressing the nursing focus on “airway clearance”. Methods: Research was conducted based on Joanna Briggs’s Scoping Review Methodology. We searched four databases for published studies until December 2023. Results: From the initial 1854 studies identified, 123 were included in the review. The findings highlighted two areas of nursing attention: one related to signs and symptom management, and the other related to education and coping strategies. The data that led to nursing diagnoses were divided into cognitive and clinical data. The nursing diagnoses were mostly related to secretion retention, excessive mucus production, and airway obstruction. The most commonly identified nursing interventions were educational interventions assembled into predesigned education programs rather than patient-tailored programs. Conclusions: Findings can add substantial value for systematizing the nursing process related to “airway clearance”, improving nursing decision-making and care quality. This study was prospectively registered with the Open Science Framework (OSF) on 02 December 2022, with the registration number wx5ze.
