Future nursing shortages and advanced technological developments mean that robots and automated devices could play a valuable role in nursing, but little has been published on their use, and outcomes, to date.
This integrative review identified how robots are currently used in nursing and the outcomes of those initiatives.
This study used integrative review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses.
We searched the CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases for peer-reviewed papers published in English from January 2010 to August 2018.
The five-stage review process by Whittemore and Knafl was used.
The 25 included papers showed that robots and automated devices were mainly used in nursing to deliver medication, monitor patients, and provide nursing treatments. The outcomes were evaluated in relation to patient safety, working time and workload, usability, and the end users' satisfaction. In addition, the costs, care outcomes, nurses' behaviour, and changes in working procedures were considered.
Robots and automated devices have the potential to develop nurses' work, but more research and critical evaluations are needed to find the most suitable devices and focus on the functions that will provide the best outcomes for nurses' work.
未来的护理人员短缺以及先进技术的发展意味着机器人和自动化设备可能在护理工作中发挥重要作用，但迄今为止，关于它们的使用及效果的相关文献却很少。
本综合综述旨在确定机器人目前在护理工作中的使用方式以及这些举措的效果。
本研究采用综合综述方法，并遵循系统评价与Meta分析的首选报告项目。
我们在CINAHL、PubMed、科学网和Scopus数据库中检索了2010年1月至2018年8月期间以英文发表的同行评审论文。
采用了惠特莫尔和克纳夫提出的五阶段综述流程。
纳入的25篇论文表明，机器人和自动化设备主要用于护理工作中的给药、监测患者以及提供护理治疗。从患者安全、工作时间和工作量、可用性以及最终用户满意度等方面对效果进行了评估。此外，还考虑了成本、护理效果、护士行为以及工作程序的变化。
机器人和自动化设备有潜力拓展护士的工作，但需要更多的研究和批判性评估，以找到最合适的设备，并关注能为护士工作带来最佳效果的功能。
