The mediating role of social support on the relationship between secondary traumatic stress and burnout of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients: A cross-sectional study.
Social support can help nurses cope with occupational stress and trauma, and maintain overall well-being, particularly in stressful situations such as outbreaks. To determine the mediating role of social support on the relationship between secondary traumatic stress (STS) and burnout among nurses who cared for COVID-19 patients. A cross-sectional, correlational, descriptive design. Two hundred nurses who had provided direct care to COVID-19 patients were recruited from wards in two hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Data were collected using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support and the Professional Quality of Life Scale tools. STS had a significant and positive correlation with burnout (r = 0.610, p = 0.000); social support from family, friends, and significant others were each significantly and negatively associated with STS (r = -0.147, p = 0.038; r = -0.547, p < 0.0001; r = -0.225, p = 0.001, respectively) and burnout (r = 0-0.282, p < 0.0001; r = -0.716, p = 0.026; r = -0.377, p < 0.0001, respectively). STS had a significant effect on social support (β = -0.21, p = 0.042) and burnout (β = 0.61, p < 0.0001). Social support had a significant and partial effect on the relationship between STS and burnout (Z = 2.99, p = 0.002). Social support can reduce and mitigate the negative effects of STS and burnout. This understanding could enhance nurses' occupational lives by assisting policymakers and nurse managers in creating positive work environments that promote social support. Such policies could reduce the incidence and impact of burnout and STS.

Effects of a nurse-led aftercare telehealth programme on sleep and psychological outcomes of adult burn survivors: A randomized controlled trial.
Burn survivors often experience a plethora of post-burn residual needs following their discharge including psychological issues and poor sleep. These needs are often overlooked with a significant focus on resolving physical issues. Aftercare support is particularly limited. The emergence of the Coronavirus pandemic worsened the situation as burn survivors were unable to return to utilise available services outpatient basis. Thus, an innovative nurse-led aftercare programme was developed and delivered via WeChat social medial platform. The current study sought to examine the effects of the intervention on anxiety, depression, and sleep pattern among adult burn survivors. This is a randomised controlled trial. Sixty adult burn survivors were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. Participants in the intervention group received the nurse-led aftercare programme which involved pre-discharge support and active follow-up on WeChat over an 8-week period and an additional 4 weeks to examine the sustained effects of the intervention. Data were collected at three timepoints: baseline (T0), post-intervention (T1), and follow-up (T2). Generalised estimating equation was employed to ascertain the group, time, and interaction effects. Using Bonferroni corrected p value (0.017), Anxiety and depression improved at T1 and sustained at T2 with mean scores demonstrating a reduction in both variables and total score. No statistically significant improvement was however observed regarding sleep. Continuous, comprehensive support is required by burn survivors following discharge to improve psychological outcomes. Delivering aftercare via WeChat should be considered a feasible option to supporting burn survivors following discharge.

The effect of an educational intervention on perioperative registered nurse's knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors towards pressure injury prevention in surgical patients.
Pressure injuries continue to be a significant problem in perioperative patients. Surgical patients are particularly at risk due to lack of mobility and sensation during surgery and the early recovery period. The AORN (2024) recommends that healthcare organizations develop a comprehensive prevention program that includes risk assessment, prevention, and education. To measure the effect of an educational intervention on perioperative nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors towards pressure injury prevention after one week and again after six months. Nurse's knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors were measured at three different time periods using quantitative nonexperimental pretest posttest longitudinal design. Three hundred fifty-four perioperative registered nurses from 11 acute care hospitals participated. Nurses' knowledge scores were in the moderate range. Statistically significant differences were found between pre-test and posttest 1 scores, indicating that knowledge improved after nurses completed the education intervention and information was retained six months after. Nurses' attitudes were neither positive nor negative towards pressure injury prevention. Regarding behavior, the majority of nurses reported carrying out pressure injury prevention strategies, however only half reported carrying out daily risk assessment strategies. To prevent pressure injury in perioperative patients, it is imperative that guidelines for the prevention of perioperative pressure injury (AORN, 2024) are integrated into nursing practice.

Needed competence for registered nurses working at a patient-centred telehealth service aimed to engage and empower people living with COPD: A five-month participatory observational study.
The global population of older aged 65 and over is increasing, which means an increase in people living with long-term health conditions and multimorbidity. Implementing new digital health technologies enables increased patient empowerment and responsibility, and the ability to respond to changes in their condition themselves, with less involvement of healthcare professionals. Important parameters need to be addressed for this digitally enabled empowerment to be successful, these include increased individual and organizational health literacy, the establishment of joint decision-making activities among patients and healthcare professionals, and efforts that target the individual's ability to manage their condition, which include education to increase skills and providing technology for self-monitoring. To identify needed competencies of digital healthcare professionals to be able to provide the needed services to service users with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in a 24/7 digital healthcare service. Five registered nurses' work was observed weekly for five months. In total 13 participatory observations were conducted. Data from the observations was transcribed and analysed through inductive content analysis. Five main categories were identified in the analysis; 1) tasks, 2) communication, 3) the relationships between the registered nurses, 4) service users, and 5) technology. These categories contain different competencies needed for registered nurses working in a digitalized healthcare system. Future digital healthcare professionals will require several competencies, to be able to deliver proper care in a digital health community that goes beyond traditional healthcare competencies, including social, technological, and communication skills.

The impact of exclusive breastfeeding on breastfeeding duration.
While breastfeeding is globally recommended, its duration still represents a public health issue. To examine the association between the period of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) and the duration of overall human milk nutrition, and to identify determinants associated with the duration of EBF and overall human milk nutrition length. The presented study is a cross-sectional study. A total of 209 healthy Polish women of Caucasian origin, aged 19-42 years, who were the mother of a child aged 3-12 months, were enrolled in the study. Data were collected from 2018 to 2020 using an anonymous questionnaire. Statistical analyses included one way ANOVA and liner regression. After birth almost all newborns were exclusively breastfed (96.7 %), but the supply of mother's milk declined as the children's ages increased. The duration of breastfeeding is strongly associated with EBF, especially until the child is six months old (p < 0.001). Mother's breastfeeding self-efficiency and her will for breastfeeding, comfortable latch, younger infant age, avoiding of a pacifier and excluding additional food may explain 36 % of variation of EBF duration (p < 0.001) and could be useful information for exclusive breastfeeding support. The practice of exclusive breastfeeding strongly affects overall breastfeeding duration. The promotion of exclusive breastfeeding, rather than of overall breast milk supply, is crucial.
