Nurses' experiences of managing cognitive problems in intensive care unit patients: A qualitative study.

Objectives: Nurses hold a key position in identifying symptoms and initiating preventive strategies for cognitive impairment in delirious and non-delirious intensive care unit patients. However, it remains unclear whether nurses consider cognitive impairment as a distinct concern from delirium. By understanding nurses' perspectives, we may identify barriers and facilitators in caring for patients with cognitive challenges in the intensive care unit.

Parents' lived experience of living with and caring for their burn-injured child in a home setting.

Purpose: When a burn injured child is discharged from hospital to its home, the responsibility for the after-care treatment is transferred to the parent(s). A knowledge gap exists concerning how parents experience caring for a burn-injured child at home after discharge. The aim is to gain an in-depth understanding of parents' lived experience of living with and caring for their burn-injured child in a home setting.
