Today's complex world of nursing practice challenges nurse educators to develop teaching methods that promote critical thinking skills and foster quick problem solving in the novice nurse. Traditional pedagogies previously used in the classroom and clinical setting are no longer adequate to prepare nursing students for entry into practice. In addition, educators have expressed frustration when encouraging students to apply newly learned theoretical content to direct the care of assigned patients in the clinical setting. This article presents algorithms as an innovative teaching strategy to guide novice student nurses in the interpretation and decision making related to vital sign assessment in an acute care setting.
当今复杂的护理实践环境对护理教育工作者提出了挑战，要求他们开发能够培养批判性思维技能并促进新手护士快速解决问题的教学方法。以前在课堂和临床环境中使用的传统教学方法已不足以让护理专业学生为进入实践做好准备。此外，教育工作者在鼓励学生将新学到的理论知识应用于指导临床环境中指定患者的护理时，也表达了挫败感。本文介绍了算法作为一种创新的教学策略，以指导新手护生在急性护理环境中进行生命体征评估时的解读和决策。
