Safety Strategies

Aim: the aim of this paper is to investigate, from the perspective of nurse managers, the means/factors that facilitate the implementation process of patient safety strategies. Method: seventy-two nurse managers from four university hospitals of the  state  of  Paraná  participated,  through  an  individual  interview,  which  was  recorded and guided by the question "Tell me about aspects that facilitate the implementation of safety  strategies  in  this  hospital."  The  statements  were  transcribed  in  full  and  were submitted  for  content  analysis  in  the  thematic  modality.  Results:  two  categories emerged from the speeches: "Management tools as facilitators in the implementation  of patient   safety   strategies"   and   "Educational   processes:   means   that   facilitate   the implementation of patient safety strategies". Conclusion: it was found that the support of the top management contributed greatly to the implementation of security strategies, as well  as  the  militant  leadership  for  this  benefit  and  the  improvement  of  human  capital, which was strictly conveyed to the institutional teaching characteristic.

This article brings the case of the Kurdish referendum for independence into the wider literature on independence referendums. It examines the decision to hold an independence referendum and explores the pre-referendum conditions and the post-referendum consequences. The article argues that the referendum in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq was held due to internal political competition and party politics rather than the ripeness of the timing for independence. Theoretically, this article adds a new dimension to the scholarship on independence referendums, as it demonstrates that the purposes of independence referendums can go beyond the question put to the population – such as consolidating popular support by connecting to the population’s nationalist desires, despite independence not being a realistic prospect. Finally, it brings further support for previous findings of the importance of international support for independence referendums.

Normal Sleep

Normal sleep is characterized by definite cycles of varying sleep depths as well as synchrony with the 24-hour circadian rhythm. Irregular work schedules put nurses at risk for sleep disruption, which is associated with adverse health effects as well as decreased patient safety. Strategies based on maintaining normal sleep cycles and the circadian rhythm can help nurses avoid the adverse effects of sleep loss.

ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the patient safety strategy implantation process through the perspective of nurse managers. Method: a qualitative descriptive-exploratory approach, performed with 72 nurse managers from four public university hospitals in Paraná. The data were collected through a recorded interview, guided by the question: “Tell me about your experience regarding the process of implantation of patient safety strategies?” and was submitted for content, thematic and modality analysis. Results: categories resulting from the analysis: Understanding the trajectory of patient safety strategy implantation; Multiple phases of patient safety strategy implantation; and Ambiguous feelings related to patient safety strategy implantation. Conclusion: in the investigated institutions, despite the process of patient safety strategy implantation being perceived in a contradictory way by the participants, they expressed feelings of satisfaction.
