Enhancing prone positioning and skin damage prevention education: A randomized controlled non-inferiority trial comparing a digital education hub (PRONEtect) and a traditional lecture on final-year nursing participants' confidence and knowledge.

Introduction: The incidence of pressure ulcers remains high in patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome, ventilated in the prone position. A digital platform, dedicated to prone positioning and skin/tissue damage education was developed.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of the PRONEtect Education Hub versus a traditional lecture on final-year nursing students' confidence levels and knowledge in a non-inferiority study.

Exploring the learning needs of clinicians in Belgium and Sweden regarding prone positioning and skin damage prevention: A qualitative study.

Introduction: During the coronavirus pandemic (COVID -19), the use of prone positioning in critically ill patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) increased substantially. As a result, clinicians had to (re)learn how to treat the patient in the prone position while preventing adverse events such as pressure ulcers, skin tears and moisture-associated skin damage.

Aim: The purpose of the study was to determine participants' learning needs related to patients in the prone position and the prevention of skin damage, such as pressure ulcers, and what they perceived as a positive or negative learning experience.

Effect of a dynamic mattress on chest compression quality during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Background: In-hospital cardiac arrest is a medical emergency that occurs on a regular basis. As patients most at risk for an in-hospital cardiac arrest are usually positioned on a dynamic mattress, it is important to measure the effect of mattress compressibility on chest compression quality during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). High-quality CPR is essential for patient survival and good neurological outcome.

Registered nurses' self-rated research utilization in relation to their work climate: Using cluster analysis to search for patterns.

Aim: To describe and study the association between registered nurses' self-rated research utilization and their perception of their work climate.

Background: Research utilization is an important part of evidence-based nursing, and registered nurses value a work climate that supports the possibility to work evidence-based.

Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted using the Creative Climate Questionnaire together with three questions measuring instrumental, conceptual and persuasive research utilization.

First line nurse managers' experiences of opportunities and obstacles to support evidence-based nursing.

Aim: The aim was to explore first line nurse managers' experiences of opportunities and obstacles to support evidence-based nursing.

Design: A qualitative study with a phenomenographical approach.

Method: Data were collected through focus group interviews with 15 first line nurse managers' in four settings.
