Critical Unit

The critical unit is a treatmenta room for patients with severe conditions that require close observation and advanced treatment.  Due to severe conditions, patients are given therapy and types of drugs that require special attention or are often called high alert drugs, either in providing, giving or storing. The administration of drug in an inappropriate manner can cause a reaction that is dangerous to the patient and improper storage can also harm the patient materially.This study aims to determinethe compliance of nurse in the high alert drug storage processin the Critical Care Room in Bandung Adventist Hospital. The storage process includes labeling high alert drugs including high concentration electrolytes,cytostatic drugs,similar speech drugs ( NORUM AND LASA ),narcotics,insulin,antiarythmia,inotropics, and anticoagulants. The method used in this research is descriptive, namely through the data obtained fron the compliance of nurse who are in the critical care roomin Bandung Adventist Hospital regarding the storage process and high alert drug services. The results showed that the compliance of nurses who were in the critical care room who was the most obedient in storing high alert drugs was the NICU-PICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit - Pediatric Intensive Care Unit) room with an adherence rate of 86,01%. While the space that is lacking in compliance with high alert drug storage is the HCU-ICCU ( High Care Unit- Intensive Caronary Care Unit) room of rate 77,56% . This shows that the level of compliance thatis owned is still below the standard qualityindicator, which is 100%. So,it requires commitment by the nursesto better complywith the high alert drug storageand service protocols.

Care Training

The neonatal grapevine seems to be growing with vigor these days. Fed by the rumor that there will be a new proposal by the Residency Review Committee (RRC) to limit the time of critical care training that pediatric house officers receive, the vine is sprouting with amazing vitality. "Critical care exposure" is reported to be limited to 5 of the 33 months of training that the house officers receive including the time spent in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), the pediatric intensive care unit, and the transplant service.

Although issues concerning withdrawal and limitation of life support are commonly discussed,1-6 actual practices in pediatrics are largely unknown and are limited to neonatal intensive care unit (ICU) studies. In the neonatal ICUs at Yale-New Haven Hospital and at Hammersmith Hospital, 14% and 30%, respectively, of all deaths followed withdrawal of care.7,8 In adult ICUs, limitation and/or withdrawal of therapy is common,9 and in one investigation, resuscitation was not attempted immediately before ICU death in nearly two-thirds of cases.10 Nonetheless, many physicians believe that most hospital deaths occur only after all resuscitative attempts have failed,6,11,12 and others believe that resuscitative efforts neither are indicated nor desirable in many cases.1,13

Background Research on sibling death in a pediatric/neonatal intensive care unit is limited, despite many qualitative differences from deaths at home or in hospitals’ general care areas and has overlooked cultural differences. Objectives To describe parents’ reports of children’s responses to a sibling’s death in a neonatal or pediatric intensive care unit via qualitative interviews at 7 months after the death. Methods English-speaking (n = 19) and Spanish-speaking (n = 8) parents of 24 deceased infants/children described responses of their 44 surviving children: 10 preschool, 19 school-age, and 15 adolescent. Parents’ race/ethnicity was 48% black, 37% Hispanic, 15% white. Ten siblings died in the neonatal unit and 14 in the pediatric intensive care unit. Semistructured interviews in parents’ homes were audio recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed with content analysis. Results Six themes about surviving children emerged. Changed behaviors were reported by parents of school-age children and adolescents. Not understand what was going on was reported primarily by parents of preschoolers. Numbers of comments in the 4 remaining themes are as follows: maintaining a connection (n = 9), not having enough time with their siblings before death and/or to say goodbye (n = 6), believing the sibling is in a good place (n = 6), not believing the sibling would die (n = 4). Comments about girls and boys were similar. White parents made few comments about their children compared with black and Hispanic parents. The pattern of comments differed by whether the sibling died in the neonatal or the pediatric intensive care unit. Conclusions Children’s responses following a sibling’s death vary with the child’s sex, parents’ race/ethnicity, and the unit where the sibling died. Children, regardless of age, recognized their parents’ grief and tried to comfort them.

BACKGROUNDThe presence of patients’ families during resuscitation has been an important practice issue. An American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) practice alert “Family Presence During Resuscitation and Invasive Procedures” supports family members of patients undergoing resuscitation being given the option of bedside presence. Parent Advocacy Group for Events of Resuscitation (PAGER) is an interdisciplinary collaborative in the pediatric intensive care unit.OBJECTIVESTo ensure that patients’ families are provided the option of being with their child during cardiopulmonary resuscitation.METHODSResuscitation data were collected for 12 months by using the AACN practice alert audit tool. The Family Nurse Caring Belief Scale was administered to 150 pediatric intensive care unit nurses. PAGER nurses received crisis education.RESULTSPediatric intensive care unit nurses were supportive of providing the option of family presence during resuscitation. Family Nurse Caring Belief Scale data revealed areas for improvement in family caring practices. PAGER was implemented with positive outcomes for 2 families.CONCLUSIONSPAGER has improved the care of families whose children experience cardiopulmonary resuscitation and should be implemented in pediatric critical care units. PAGER nurses are prepared to serve as role models in providing family-sensitive care during crisis.
