To discuss specialist operating theatre nurses' competence in relation to the general six core competencies and patient safety.
A discursive analysis of legal statutes and scientific articles.
Swedish legal statutes and an overview of scientific articles on operating theatre nursing were deductively analysed and classified into healthcare providers' general six core competencies.
All healthcare professionals should possess the general core competencies, regardless of their discipline. The specific content within these competencies differs between disciplines. The specialized operating theatre nurse is the only healthcare professional having the competence to be responsible for asepsis, instrumentation, infection and complication, control and management of biological specimens during the surgical procedure. Besides operating theatre nurses, no other healthcare profession has the formal education, competence or skills to perform operating theatre nursing care in the theatre during the surgical procedure. Operating theatre nurse competence is therefore indispensable to ensure patient safety during surgery.
探讨专科手术室护士在一般六项核心能力及患者安全方面的胜任力。
对法律法规和科学文章进行话语分析。
对瑞典法律法规以及关于手术室护理的科学文章综述进行演绎分析,并归类为医疗保健提供者的一般六项核心能力。
所有医疗保健专业人员都应具备一般核心能力,无论其学科如何。这些能力中的具体内容因学科而异。专科手术室护士是唯一有能力在手术过程中负责无菌操作、器械、感染与并发症、生物标本控制与管理的医疗保健专业人员。除手术室护士外,没有其他医疗保健专业具备在手术过程中于手术室进行手术室护理的正规教育、能力或技能。因此,手术室护士的能力对于确保手术期间的患者安全不可或缺。
