  • Purpose: The purpose of this study were to identify the influential factors of bullying of intensive care nurses and to suggest a final structural model based on identified relationships between nursing organizational culture, authentic leadership, self-esteem, and bullying in the workplace. Methods: Data were collected from 221 nurses at intensive care units in eight general hospitals using structured questionnaires and analyzed by structural equation modeling. Results: In this study, the average of bullying in the workplace was 1.34±0.40, nursing organizational culture was 3.31±0.47, self-esteem was 2.79±0.44, and authentic leadership was 3.61±0.60. The factors affecting nursing organizational culture were authentic leadership (β=.54, p<.001) and self-esteem (β=.24, p=.002) that had direct positive effects on the nursing organizational culture. The nursing organizational culture had also a direct effect on reducing workplace bullying (β=-.45, p<.001). Authentic leadership (β=-.24, p=.004) and self-esteem (β=-.11, p=.004) had indirect effects on workplace bullying, which was mediated by the nursing organizational culture. Conclusion: To understand and reduce workplace bullying, evaluating a nursing organizational culture should be preceded. Based on the finding of this study, an intervention for increasing authentic leadership and self-esteem of nurses can positively help to create the nursing organizational culture and then reduce workplace bullying.

  • Purpose: This study was done to analyse nursing records to identify the nature of pain and actual conditions of pain management in patients hospitalized in one university hospital. Methods: The participants in this study were 783 patients with a length of stay of 3 to 30 days who were discharged from medical wards between June 1 and June 30, 2009. Data on nursing records related to pain management from these patients were reviewed using the Electronic Nursing Records (ENRs) system. Results: Over 30 percent of 10,702 nursing records related to pain assessment had no record on region, severity, nature or frequency of pain. About 30 percent of 13,638 nursing records related to pain intervention showed non-drug pain management techniques. Conclusion: Accurate and complete records on pain assessment including region, severity, nature and frequency of pain are essential to effectively manage patients' pain. Improvement in ENRs system for better assessment and management of pain is required as well as education programs on a standardized measuring tool for both nurses and patients.

  • Purpose: This study was conducted to update nursing practice guidelines for intravenous infusion published in 2017. Methods: The guideline update process was carried out using 22 steps developed by NICE and SIGN. It was agreed to update domains related to central venous infusion therapy. Contents related to peripheral infusion would be updated later. Results: Updated guidelines for central venous infusion therapy consisted of 6 domains and 195 recommendations. The number of recommendations by domain was 11 for general instruction, 14 for central vascular access devices (CVAD) and add-on devices, 13 for nursing management before insertion of CVAD, 30 for management during insertion of CVAD, 51 for management after insertion of CVAD, and 76 for complications. A grade was 29 (14.9%), B grade was 87 (44.6%), and C grade was 79 (40.5%) in the strength of recommendations. A total of 37 (19.0%) recommendations were newly developed and 23 (12.3%) previous recommendations have been modified. The newly developed recommendations were mainly related to the infection control methods. Conclusion: The updated guideline is focused on safe maintenance of central venous infusion therapy. Through this guideline, it is hoped to minimize the occurrence of complications and improve the standardization and efficiency of nursing practice.

  • 본 연구는 간호대학생의 카페인 음료의 섭취실태를 파악하고, 학습 집중력과 수면의 질과의 관계를 확인하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 대상자는 한 달 평균 하루 2.45병의 카페인 음료를 섭취하고 있었고 잠을 쫓기 위한 섭취 이유가 집중력이나 학습능력 향상에 도움을 주는 것보다 수면의 질이 더 낮았고, 하루 2병을 섭취하는 경우가 하루 1병을 섭취하는 경우보다 수면의 질이 더 낮았다. 수면의 질은 카페인 섭취 이유, 학습 집중력과 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로, 잠을 쫓기 위한 카페인 음료 섭취 및 하루 2병 이상의 카페인 음료 섭취는 수면의 질을 저하 시키므로 카페인 음료 섭취를 자제하고 수면의 질을 높일 수 있는 대안을 마련하여 학습 집중력의 향상을 도모해야 할 것이다.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the nurses' recognition extent of nursing power and related factors. It was performed in a private university hospital using questionaire papers from Jul. 11 to Jul. 20, 1993. The collected data were in number of 209, and they were handled and analyzed by computer program (SPSS). Through above process, we got meaningful results as follow. 1. The factor concerned with whether the nursing department show its independent power or not was 4.1 on an average. Consequently above results showed that the independent power roles as a important factor. The factor concerned with study and research was 3.9 on an average. So that the extension of learning was also a comparatively important nursing power. But ensuring good material environment was merely 1.6 on an average. So it was understood as less important nursing power. 2. Between the factor concerned with enforcement of independence of nursing department and the factor concerned with extension of learning, there was positive correlation of 0.32 Pearson's Correlation Coefficent. It can be interpreted as the effort of extension of learning go side by side with the showing of independent power of nursing department. As a result the power of nursing become strong. And between the factor concerned with enforcenment of independence of nursing department and the ensuring o(good material environment, there was negative correlation of -0.28 Pearson's Correaltion Coefficint. It can be interpreted as the stronger the independent power of nursing, the more overlooked the recognized of material environment of nurses.
