Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the importance of clinical decision-making for nurses, highlighting that it's essential for providing safe and high-quality care, and emphasizes the need for reliable instruments to assess nurses' self-reported decision-making skills.
- The objective is to evaluate the measurement properties of these self-reported clinical decision-making instruments in nursing through a systematic review, adhering to COSMIN standards.
- The review identified nine instruments from eleven studies focused on registered nurses and nursing students, noting that most instruments explored analytical and intuitive decision-making, while findings showed a lack of assessment in areas like measurement error and criterion validity.
