To describe the nurse manager's role in perioperative settings.
The nurse manager's role is complex and its content unclear. Research in this area is scarce. We need to better understand what this role is to support the nurse manager's work and decision-making with information systems.
An integrative literature review was conducted in May 2018. Databases CINAHL, Cochrane, PubMed and Web of Science were used together with a manual search. The review followed a framework especially designed for integrative reviews. Quality of the literature was analysed with an assessment tool. Nine studies published between 2001 and 2016 were included in the final review.
The findings from the review indicate that the nurse manager's role requires education and experience, and manifests in skills and tasks. A bachelor's degree with perioperative specialisation is the minimum educational requirement for a nurse manager.
Research lacks a clear description of the nurse manager's role in perioperative settings. However, the role evolves by education. More education provides advanced skills and, thereby, more demanding tasks. Information technology could provide useful support for task management.
These findings can be used to better answer the current and future demands of the nurse manager's work.
描述围手术期护理经理的角色。
护理经理的角色复杂，其内容不明确。该领域的研究很少。我们需要更好地了解这个角色，以便用信息系统支持护理经理的工作和决策。
2018 年 5 月进行了综合文献回顾。使用了 CINAHL、Cochrane、PubMed 和 Web of Science 数据库，并结合了手动搜索。该综述遵循了专门为综合评价设计的框架。使用评估工具分析文献质量。最终综述共纳入了 9 项发表于 2001 年至 2016 年的研究。
综述结果表明，护理经理的角色需要教育和经验，并体现在技能和任务中。围手术期专业的学士学位是护理经理的最低教育要求。
研究缺乏对围手术期护理经理角色的明确描述。然而，该角色通过教育不断发展。更多的教育提供了更先进的技能，从而带来了更具挑战性的任务。信息技术可以为任务管理提供有用的支持。
这些发现可用于更好地应对当前和未来护理经理工作的需求。
