A sample of 1933 registered nurses working in 24 hospitals with shared leadership was surveyed to examine perceptions of nurse decisional involvement. Council participation was associated with higher decisional involvement scores (P = .03), and nurse experience was a statistically significant predictor of decisional involvement (P < .01). Nurse manager and staff registered nurse scores were significantly different (P < .01). Shared leadership may promote staff nurse perceptions of involvement in decision-making.

Background: Poland syndrome (PS) is a congenital abnormality defined as aplasia or hypoplasia of the unilateral pectoralis muscle and breast tissue that may be accompanied by limb or thoracic deformities. Reconstruction of deformities associated with PS is challenging owing to the spectrum of differences. We aimed to evaluate the trends in surgical management of chest and breast anatomical anomalies associated with PS.

Article Synopsis
  • The Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) is an effective method for studying decision-making processes by providing feedback on choices, and its study has recently incorporated transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to explore cognitive and neural mechanisms.
  • A scoping review found that tDCS could improve IGT performance, particularly highlighting the importance of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and orbitofrontal cortex in making risky or ambiguous decisions.
  • The findings suggest that tDCS can enhance decision-making in both healthy individuals and patients, indicating its potential application in daily decisions and emphasizing the need for further research into the underlying mechanisms.

Background: Young working women who devote most of their time to jobs and household chores may experience conflicts when faced with a cervical cancer screening decision. This study aimed to assess the acceptability and feasibility of a Web-based decision aid on cervical cancer screening by young working women, and to preliminarily examine the effects of the decision aid on the knowledge level, risk perception, decisional conflicts, screening decision and screening uptake.

Method: This was a pilot randomised controlled trial.

Background: Listening and responding to family concerns in organ and tissue donation is generally considered important, but has never been researched in real time. We aimed to explore in real time, (a) which family concerns emerge in the donation process, (b) how these concerns manifest during and after the donor conversation, and (c) how clinicians respond to the concerns during the donor conversation.

Methods: A qualitative embedded multiple-case study in eight Dutch hospitals was conducted.
