The effect of a team-based blended simulation training program on cardiopulmonary resuscitation on healthcare professionals' perception, performance, and costs: a mixed-method study.

Background: The quality of Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillations (AED) treatment provided by individual practitioners is the most important factor in surviving an in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA); therefore, healthcare professionals (HCPs) require sufficient resuscitation competency. This study aimed to analyze the effects of a blended team-based CPR and AED simulation training (riAniMO program) on HCPs performance, satisfaction and perception on transferability, and costs.

Methods: The riAniMO is based on a multimedia training program with video lessons and a virtual CPR resuscitation simulation, and a team-based CPR and AED simulation.

Factors affecting the unused short peripheral catheters: A neverending debate? A cross-sectional study in hospitalized patients.

Background: Concern about unused vascular access devices has increased, but data on idle short peripherally intravascular catheters in medical-surgical units is still scarce. We aimed to assess the prevalence of unused short peripheral catheters in hospitalized patients and identify risk factors and reasons that lead nurses to maintain them in situ.

Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was performed in September 2022.

Economic Evaluation of Multilayer Silicone-Adhesive Polyurethane Foam Dressing for the Prevention of Pressure Ulcers in at-risk Hospitalized Patients: US and Italian Perspective.

Background: Hospital-acquired pressure ulcers (HAPUs) constitute an important source of concern for healthcare systems due to their negative consequences on patient quality of life and hospital costs. This phenomenon is increasing worldwide, driven by an aging population and increasing prevalence of chronic conditions. This economic evaluation aimed to determine whether using a multilayer, silicone-adhesive polyurethane foam dressing shaped for the sacrum area, alongside standard prevention (SP), is cost-effective in preventing HAPUs for hospitalized patients compared to SP alone.

Nurses' perspectives for the role of play with children in an onco-hematology department: A qualitative study.

Purpose: to describe nurses' perceptions of using play in a pediatric onco-hematology setting.

Design And Methods: A qualitative descriptive study was conducted in the pediatric onco-hematology department of a tertiary hospital in northern Italy. Eleven nurses working in the involved department were recruited via convenience sampling.
