Introduction: Whether it is a written documentation or an oral communication, the practice and delivery of healthcare is debated to be critically dependent on effective and efficient communication. Nursing documentation is one of the principal sources of information about patient care and an important tool for communication. This descriptive study assessed both quantitative completeness and quality of nursing documentation by major in-patient units of Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital. Methods: This cross-sectional study used D-catch tool. Data of randomly selected 317 patient records from six major in-patient units were entered into EpiData file. Using STATA version IC/14, descriptive statistics and multi variable analysis were carried out. Results: Overall quantitative completeness (M-3.4, SD-.59) of the nursing documentation was higher compared to the quality of the documents maintained (M-2.8, SD-.79). The basic and less time-consuming information such as admission data and vital signs charting are documented better compared to the more time consuming and complex documentation such as nursing care process. Conclusion: Systems should not only be in place to enhance documentation quantitatively but also consider uplifting the quality of the documents maintained. Initiating centralized admission system in the hospital may reduce nurses’ burden of clerical documentation, which will allow them to focus on quality nursing documentation and overall nursing care of patients.

The colostomized person's perceptions regarding sexuality and sexual activity is a major component of quality of life and nursing care, however due to several limitations, the questionnaire only approach, although validated for such applications, has not enough resolution, due to its qualitative approach, to capture more delicate aspects of the impact of an ostomy onto a otherwise healthy patient. In order to correct such bias, a exploratory-descriptive study of a qualitative approach based on Bardain’s content analysis was conducted.  80 colostomized participants were recruited from Stomatology Outpatient Clinics in the Hospital de Base, Regional Hospital of Asa Norte and the Regional Hospital of Gama, Distrito Federal, Brazil. Data was collected through a clinical and sociodemographic questionnaire, as well as an individual interview. The results are presented in five categories: self-concept, leakage issues, odor and gases, stigma, sexual activity and companionship. The analysis suggests that the fulfillment of nursing care ideals, through clear and objective communication, results in the colostomized person's care and can favor in the acceptance of their new way of living. The exchange of knowledge and practices between the colostomized patient and the medical care support crew, in special the nursing care, allows the establishment of strategies that contribute gradually to the full health care, promoting the improvement of the QoL of both the colostomized person as well his/her partner. It is concluded that health services should provide care process in health and nursing, with the purpose of guaranteeing means for the planning of a holistic implementation of health care. This planning should include the psychological support and the educational process that develops one's ability for self-care, which may interfere in the role of sexuality and sexual activity, in addition to the physiological, psychological and social issues.

Background Associations between the quality of nursing care and patient outcomes have been demonstrated globally. However, translation and application of this evidence to robust measurement in pediatric specialty nursing care has been limited. Objectives To test the feasibility and performance of nurse-sensitive measures in pediatric cardiovascular programs. Methods Ten nurse-sensitive measures targeting nursing workforce, care process, and patient outcomes were implemented, and measurement data were collected for 6 months across 9 children’s hospitals in the Consortium of Congenital Cardiac Care–Measurement of Nursing Practice (C4-MNP). Participating sites evaluated the feasibility of collecting data and the usability of the data. Results Variations in nursing workforce characteristics were reported across sites, including proportion of registered nurses with 0 to 2 years of experience, nursing education, and nursing certification. Clinical measurement data on weight gain in infants who have undergone cardiac surgery, unplanned transfer to the cardiac intensive care unit, and pain management highlighted opportunities for improvement in care processes. Overall, each measure received a score of 75% or greater in feasibility and usability. Conclusions Collaborative evaluation of measurement performance, feasibility, and usability provided important information for continued refinement of the measures, development of systems to support data collection, and selection of benchmarks across C4-MNP. Results supported the development of target benchmarks for C4-MNP sites to compare performance, share best practices for improving the quality of pediatric cardiovascular nursing care, and inform nurse staffing models.
