    Abstract Objective: To critically summarise the qualitative literature to understand patients' experiences of delusional memories during their Intensive Care Unit stay.
    Research methodology: A systematic review of qualitative studies with meta-synthesis and meta-summary. We searched MEDLINE (via PubMed), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Scopus, and Web of Science to July 2022. All studies that provided qualitative insights into the subjective experience of adult patients with delusional memories in the Intensive Care Unit were selected. The Critical Assessment Skills Programme checklist was used for the quality assessment.
    Results: Fourteen studies were included. The 33 codes that emerged from the inductive thematic analysis were grouped into three themes: 'The sense of danger and the terrifying aspect of death' (feeling in danger, surrounded by death, persecuted by people around, and feeling unsafe), 'The presence of someone or something nearby' (perceiving the loved ones, feeling overwhelmed by scary creatures, and being neglected by those around me), and 'The reality behind the world perceived by the senses' (travelling the world, stimulating the senses, feeling peaceful, and living in a fantasy world). The most frequent code in the studies was 'Be with a family member', with an intensity of 35.7%.
    Conclusion: The patient's experience described as delusional is considered a real event by the person experiencing it. Further research is needed to investigate the extent to which these experiences lead to poorer early and late outcomes for patients, and to test strategies to prevent this.
    Implications for clinical practice: A deeper understanding of the phenomenon may help healthcare professionals to recognise precursors, symptoms and consequences of delusional memories and intervene with appropriate help. One strategy would be to further humanise care and focus on family involvement and communication with patients to overcome the factual events that can potentially alter patients' quality of life.

    Abstract Among hospitalised patients, functional decline and increased dependence on others are common health problems. Identifying critical needs is an important starting point to empower patients to improve their own health and behaviour. Once these needs are determined, the most relevant goals for addressing patients' needs and health potential can be established. This study aimed to test a model for profiling patients using the General Assessment of Hospitalised Patients (ASGO) compared to the Barthel Index (BI) as the gold standard. A retrospective approach was conducted by reviewing administrative data recorded between 2017 and 2020 at the University of Padova, Italy. Data from patients (a) older than 18 years, (b) admitted to a local hospital, and (c) with a stay of at least three days were included in the study. The ASGO and the BI were both used on patients' admission and discharge from the ward. Data were analysed using STATA software (v.16) (StataCorp. 2019. Stata Statistical Software: Release 16. College Station, TX: StataCorp LLC). The database used for the analysis consisted of 842 patient records, with more than 50% over 75 years of age and consisting mainly of men. The results of the ASGO and the BI were more correlated at discharge (rho = -0.79) than at admission (rho = -0.59). Furthermore, sensitivity and specificity, calculated with reference to the optimal cut-off point (Youden index), demonstrated the highest reliability of the test at discharge (sensitivity: 0.87; specificity: 0.78) compared to admission (sensitivity: 0.77; specificity: 0.72). This result was confirmed by the analysis of the ROC curve: The area under the curve was greater at discharge (89%) than at admission (82%). Analysis of the results obtained from assessments created with the ASGO demonstrates the applicability of this model in the context of hospital care and how well it can represent functional dependence. This study was not registered.

    Abstract In Italy, from April 2021, healthcare workers were required to receive the COVID-19 vaccine; if they refused it, an immediate unpaid suspension was implemented until they received the vaccine. Although there are numerous quantitative studies on the factors that influenced vaccine hesitancy during the COVID-19 pandemic, qualitative research on the causes of vaccine refusal is still missing. This research aimed to investigate the phenomenon of nurses who refused to receive COVID-19 vaccination despite being required to do so, as well as the reasons behind their refusal. Furthermore, the actions of those who abandoned this stance were explored. This was a qualitative study involving the methodological approach of grounded theory. Twenty-four nurses were interviewed virtually via Zoom from May to July 2022. Anti-vax behavior-as emerged from nurses' experiences-was based on seven themes: (1) job satisfaction, (2) the main sources of information on COVID-19, (3) the reasons for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, (4) the attitudes of family members toward the COVID-19 vaccine, (5) previous experience with other vaccines, (6) firm opposition to the vaccine (unvaccinated nurses), (7) reluctant acceptance (vaccinated nurses). It was shown that it is imperative for health authorities to adopt timely, documented, transparent, and consistent communication when carrying out public health campaigns, especially for vaccination.

    Abstract In the last two years, all hospitals have adopted restricted visitation policies due to the coronavirus disease 2019. The objective of this study was to assess the consequences of hospital visitation restrictions on the most common outcome measures on adult patients who underwent surgery. A retrospective study design was conducted according to the STrengthening the Reporting of OBservational studies in Epidemiology statements in 2021. Forty patients exposed to a no-visitors policy and forty unexposed patients (1:1) were enrolled. Patients who were not allowed to receive family visits were more likely to report disorientation/agitation episodes (n = 25, 62.5% vs. n = 12, 30.0%; p < 0.01), spend more sleepless nights (n = 10, 25.0% vs. n = 1, 2.5%; p < 0.01), be restrained (n = 8, 20.0% vs. n = 1, 2.5%; p = 0.02), incur device-removal incidents (n = 14, 35.0% vs. n = 5, 12.5%; p = 0.01) compared to unexposed patients. Conversely, pain episodes were significantly more frequent in the unexposed group (n = 7.1, SD = 7.9 vs. n = 2.4, SD = 2.8; p < 0.01), and there was lower clinical deterioration risk (NEWS of 0−4 average 19.5, SD = 12.2 evaluations vs. 12.3, SD = 8.6; p < 0.01) compared to exposed patients. According to the results, family visiting restrictions should be measured against their possible advantages in order to prevent negative outcomes for surgical patients and to improve the quality of care.

    Abstract Objectives: This study explores the evidence available on Nursing Minimum Data Sets (NMDSs) by summarising: (a) the main methodological and reporting features of the reviews published in this field to date; (b) the recommendations developed and published in such reviews regarding the NMDSs, and (c) the categories and items that should be included in the NMDSs according to the available reviews.
    Methods: An Umbrella Review was performed. A search of secondary studies published up to November 2021 that were focused on NMDSs for adult hospitalised patients was conducted using MEDLINE (via PubMed), CINAHL and Scopus databases. The included studies were critically evaluated by using the Checklist for Systematic Review and Research Syntheses. The full review process was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and the Meta-Analyses statement.
    Results: From the initial 1311 studies that were retrieved, a total of eight reviews published from 1995 to 2018 were included. Their methodological quality was variable; these reviews offered four types of recommendations, namely at the overall, clinical, research and management levels. Additionally, seven NMDSs emerged with different purposes, elements, target populations and taxonomies. A list of categories and items that should be included in NMDSs have been summarised.
    Conclusions: Nurses are daily involved in the nursing care documentation; however, which elements are recorded is mainly defined at the local levels and relies on paper and pencil. NMDS might provide a point of reference, specifically in the time of health digitalisation. Alongside other priorities as underlined in available recommendations, and the need to improve the quality of the reviews in this field, there is a need to develop a common NMDS by establishing its core elements, deciding on a standardised language and identifying linkages with other datasets.

    Abstract . The Productive Ward programme to provide high quality care: findings from a scoping review.
    Introduction: The Productive Ward: Releasing Time to CareTM is a ward processes- and environments- improvement program intended to help nurses to spend more time on patient care, thus promoting patient safety.
    Aims: To define the state-of-science in research on the Productive Ward (PW) program, the set of outcomes documented to date, as well as the factors facilitating or hindering its implementation in practice.
    Methods: A scoping review based on the framework proposed by Levac et al. in 2010, further refined by the Joanna Briggs Institute in 2017, was performed on 2021. Methods and findings have been reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses - Scoping Reviews statement.
    Results: 11 studies have been published from 2014 to 2021, mainly in Europe and England. According to the findings, the PW program has an impact on nurses, patients and the organization. Factors facilitating the PW programme implementation rely on engaging communication, the leadership, the organizational and the managerial support, the additional human and financial resources as well as on the feature of the context and its culture. Resistance to change is the most investigated barrier of PW implementation.
    Conclusions: Although limited, the evidence suggests that the PW experiences are positive. Factors facilitating and hindering the implementation suggest a map of possible elements to consider before and during the implementation process.

    Title translation Risk of hemolysis in blood sampling from peripheral intravenous catheter: a literature review.
    Abstract Scope: Hemolysis is one of the main factors that can damage a blood sample. The availability of an intravenous line already placed pushes many nurses to use this route for blood drawing, even if it is known that this technique is associated with an increased rate of hemolysis compared to blood sampling with a needle. The aim of this work is to identify interventions that reduce risk of hemolysis if the blood sample is from a peripheral IV catheter.
    Method: A review of relevant literature was conducted through the databases MEDLINE, CINAHL and Cochrane database of Systematic Reviews.
    Results: Fifteen studies were retrieved. Factors such as the material and the caliber of the IV catheter, the presence of obstructions, the anatomical site, the permanence of the tourniquet, the difficulty of positioning of the catheter, the volume of the tube used and the skills of the operator are decisive in the risk of hemolysis of the sample. In term of cost and preferences of the patient, the technique of blood sampling from a peripheral IV catheter is preferable.
    Conclusions: Sample collection through intravenous catheters is associated with significant higher risk of hemolysis. Take a sample of blood from a peripheral catheter to carry out an analysis and, at the same time, reduce the risk of hemolysis is possible if some precautions are followed.
