Self-Efficacy in the Cannulation Technique for Intraosseous Access in Pediatric Cardiac Arrest: Egg Versus Bone.

Objectives: The use of intraosseous (IO) access is recommended in cardiac arrest when peripheral venous access is not accessible. Various methodologies exist that are used for teaching and learning about cannulation of the IO route both in education and in research. The purpose of the present study was to compare self-efficacy in the cannulation technique for IO access through different techniques.

Time out! Pauses during advanced life support in high-fidelity simulation: A cross-sectional study.

Background: Prolonged preshock pauses are associated with negative effects on patient outcomes and survival. A greater understanding of these pauses may help to improve the quality of advanced life support (ALS) and clinical outcomes.

Objective: The objective of this study was to identify the pauses that occur during ALS situations in high-fidelity simulation scenarios and the frequency and duration of these pauses.

Original Research: How Magnet Hospital Status Affects Nurses, Patients, and Organizations: A Systematic Review.

Objective: As the number of Magnet hospitals continues to rise in the United States and abroad, the body of literature regarding various outcomes at Magnet hospitals is increasing also. A systematic review examining and compiling the most recent evidence would be invaluable to those seeking to pursue Magnet recognition for their facility. We conducted this systematic review to investigate how Magnet hospital status affects outcomes for nursing professionals, patients, and health care organizations.

Nursing Degree students' perception about their clinical practice environment: a phenomenological study.

Aim: To explore the perception of fourth-year nursing students of the healthcare environment where their training process in clinical practices takes place.

Methods: Phenomenological qualitative study based on the hermeneutical philosophy of Gádamer that included the development of focus groups and semi-structured interviews in a sample of fourth-year nursing students from the University of Almería. The collection period was in February 2016.
