Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the nursing workload in an adult intensive care unit using the Nursing Activities Score (NAS), which measures time spent on patient care activities.
- Data was collected from 437 patients over several months, revealing a high NAS of 74.4% and showing that factors like type of admission and patient condition impacted nursing workload.
- The findings indicate a significant correlation between NAS and various patient severity scores, suggesting that understanding these relationships can help in staffing and resource planning within the ICU.
