Nurses play a critical role in managing a patient's pain, from initial evaluation to ongoing patient education. However, little information exists on current gaps in nurses' knowledge and their pain-related decision making. To this end, an educational intervention-the INROADS initiative-was designed to improve the knowledge of nurses involved in patient management as well as to guide them toward practices that are consistent with currently available evidence. The results from an evaluation of this intervention show that nurses participating in the INROADS program were 52% more likely to make evidence-based care choices for their patients, compared with a control group of demographically similar nurses. The effect of this program may reinforce it as a model for the design of future interventions for pain management.
护士在管理患者疼痛方面发挥着关键作用,从最初的评估到持续的患者教育。然而,关于护士知识方面当前存在的差距及其与疼痛相关的决策,现有的信息很少。为此,设计了一项教育干预措施——“INROADS计划”,以提高参与患者管理的护士的知识水平,并引导他们采用与现有证据一致的做法。对该干预措施的评估结果表明,与人口统计学特征相似的护士对照组相比,参与“INROADS计划”的护士为患者做出基于证据的护理选择的可能性要高出52%。该计划的效果可能会强化其作为未来疼痛管理干预措施设计模式的地位。
