Aim: To explore and validate an end of shift survey with a low response burden, practical application and generated evidence of related associations between workload, quality of work and patient care, missed care and job satisfaction.
Design: A retrospective cross-sectional survey of the experiences of nursing staff.
Methods: Data were collected from 265 nurses who responded to a questionnaire at the end of their shift in 2022. Exploratory factor analysis was undertaken using IBM SPSS v.27 and confirmatory factor analysis was undertaken using IBM AMOS v27. Hypotheses testing was undertaken using IBM SPSS v.27 using multiple regression analyses.
Results: All of the hypotheses were supported. There was a negative association between workload and quality of work and job satisfaction. Quality of work was negatively associated with workload and missed care and positively associated with job satisfaction. The association between missed care and job satisfaction was negative.
Conclusion: The EOSS is a valid and reliable tool with a low response burden. The tool supports previous research which demonstrated there is a negative relationship between level of workload and shift type with satisfaction, quality of work and potentially nurse retention.
Implications For The Profession And/or Patient Care: In the context of a global nursing shortage nursing leaders must ensure that care we provide is of the highest quality. We must take every action to address high workload to reduce the risk that fundamental care is not sacrificed, job satisfaction is improved and nurses remain in the profession. The EOSS gives nurse leaders a reliable, practical, consistent, applied tool that will better enable associations to be observed between resource configuration, workload and critical impacts on nursing and patient care.
Reporting Method: We have adhered to the relevant EQUATOR guidelines using the STROBE reporting method.
Patient Or Public Contribution: No Patient or Public Contribution.

Preserving the ability to vividly recall emotionally rich experiences contributes to quality of life in older adulthood. While prior works suggest that moderate-intensity physical activity (MPA) may bolster memory, it is unclear whether this extends to emotionally salient memories consolidated during sleep. In the current study, older adults (mean age = 72.

Pathogenic activating mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) drive disease maintenance and progression in urothelial cancer. 10-15% of muscle-invasive and metastatic urothelial cancer (MIBC/mUC) are FGFR3-mutant. Selective targeting of FGFR3 hotspot mutations with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.

The present research therefore sought to examine the individual experiences of SANEs regarding trauma, support, training needs, and challenges.
Methods: A national sample of SANEs participated in an online survey.

Controllably modulating the structure of transition-metal chalcogenides (TMCs) from 2D to 1D and tuning their electronic properties has drawn particular attention currently due to their remarkable properties and potential applications. In this work, by precisely controlling the chemical concentration of Te atoms, the transformation from the 2D honeycomb AgTe monolayer to high-quality and well-defined 1D AgTe nanowires on the Ag(111) substrate has been successfully achieved. The combination of scanning tunneling microscopy measurements and first-principles calculations has confirmed that the mechanism underlying the entire dimensional transformation lies in the directional movement of Ag atoms in the 2D AgTe monolayer regulated by the concentration of Te atoms.
