Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the needs of adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus for acquiring self-care and psychosocial skills for the progressive self-management of the disease, as a prelude to the development of an educational programme. The parents and health care professionals who supported young people were also asked to provide their insight into adolescents' needs. Methods, design and setting: Qualitative focus group design with a thematic analysis informed by social-cognitive theory. Results: Findings highlight gaps and divergence in the perceived needs of adolescents engaged with in existing structured educational programmes. Suggestions for change to future programmes were identified, including the implementation of educational follow-ups outside of hospital settings and an educational programme open to family and friends to foster support from the adolescents' social circle. The use of digital media is proposed as an on-demand (rather than planned) educational method. Conclusion: This study provides information relevant to the development of new educational programmes for adolescents with type 1 diabetes in the south of France. Future programmes should be structured so as to promote active participation by adolescents from the start of the programme through to its evaluation.

From a pedagogical point of view, there is a great deal of creativity and practice in teaching conceptual models and nursing theories. However, there seems to be no synthesis of knowledge regarding the pedagogical methods used to teach them. The purpose of this scoping review is to map the available literature on the teaching of nursing conceptual models and theories in undergraduate nursing education. The scoping review will be developed in accordance with the JBI scoping review methodology and the PRISMA scoping review checklist. The aim of the results is to map the available literature data that can serve as inspiration and a foundation for the development of specific courses on conceptual models and theories in nursing sciences. This scoping review will be served as the basis for a study that will be described and explored the integration of nursing knowledge into bachelor of nursing curricula. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article explores the association between nurses' perceptions of skin-to-skin contact (SSC) and family-centered care (FCC) in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The study found that nurses who had more favorable perceptions of their unit's ability to provide FCC also had more positive attitudes and knowledge about SSC. The findings suggest that when SSC training and education are available and well-implemented in the NICU, nurses have more favorable perceptions of FCC. The study highlights the importance of promoting both SSC and FCC in NICUs to improve outcomes for preterm infants and their parents. [Extracted from the article]

Aims: The aims of the study were to describe the processes used to introduce advanced practice nursing roles and factors that facilitated or hindered role implementation, examine the time advanced practice nurses (APNs) spend in role activities and how these activities relate to domains of advanced practice nursing and examine how implementation processes influenced APN integration within healthcare teams. Design: A multiple case study was conducted. Methods: Five cases were included, representing the four population areas approved for advanced practice nursing in France. Data were collected from January to March 2021 using observation, interview and document analysis methods. Data were examined using thematic analysis. Results: Participants included APNs (n = 5), nurses/allied health providers (n = 5), physicians (n = 5), managers (n = 4) and decision-makers (n = 4). Stakeholder engagement and leadership provided by decision-makers, managers, physicians and APNs facilitated role implementation. Poor stakeholder role understanding, uncertain role funding, and the COVID-19 pandemic hindered role implementation. APNs spent the most time in clinical activities. Participants perceived the integration of APNs within the healthcare team and their impact on patient care to be positive. Conclusion: Stakeholder engagement and organizational and APN leadership facilitated the implementation of the roles, especially related to team-based patient care. Further efforts are needed to strengthen APN involvement in non-clinical activities and address role barriers. Implications for nursing and patient care: Systematic and system-wide approaches are needed to improve role clarity, role autonomy and health systems integration of APNs. Research should examine patient perspectives about APNs in France. Impact: The results highlight how policies can create favourable conditions for advanced practice nursing role implementation in France. Internationally, this study serves as a reminder to APNs and nurse leaders about the strategies for and importance of implementation evaluation to support the optimal development of advanced practice nursing roles. Reporting Method: The study reporting followed the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research. Patient or Public Contribution: No Patient or Public Contribution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aim: To present the development, evaluation and adaptation of the PAIN‐Neo theory. Design: Theory development. Data Sources: A review of literature was conduct from 1980 to 2021. Results: Using a critical realism paradigm, this paper presents the PAIN‐Neo theory, which was developed from an analysis of existing theoretical perspectives on paediatric procedural pain, empirical studies conducted with preterm infants, and the research team's pain management expertise. The theory was then empirically tested and fine‐tuned. Implications for Nursing: The PAIN‐Neo theory highlights that the neonatal nurse is part of a larger picture as she is influenced by factors related to her unit, hospital and country of practice. This theory emphasizes the importance of parental involvement in pain management, which is consistent with family‐centred nursing practices. Conclusion: The PAIN‐Neo theory reflects the complexity of pain management nursing. This theory is innovative and specific enough to guide practice, structure research projects and contribute to the body of knowledge in the discipline of nursing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: To translate and conduct the preliminary psychometric validation of a skin‐to‐skin contact instrument in French (SSC‐F) with a sample of nurses from Quebec and France working in neonatal intensive care units. Methods: The 20 items of the SSC instrument containing four subscales (knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, training and education and implementation), developed by Vittner et al. (2017), was translated into French. The methodological steps used for psychometric validation included assessment of the item and subscale normality distributions, assessment of reliability using internal consistency, and assessment of validity using inter‐item and inter‐scale correlations and principal component analysis. Results: The preliminary psychometric validation showed that all four subscales of the French version had adequate internal consistency (0.61–0.77), supporting the calculation of a total score for each subscale based on the English version of the instrument. The structural validity was supported by principal component analysis findings. Practice Implications: Based on the findings of the preliminary psychometric validation of our study, the SSC‐F instrument could be used in research with French‐speaking neonatal nurses in Western countries, but gathering more evidence about its reliability and validity is warranted for clinical practice.

ABSTRACT Aim Design Methods Results Conclusion Implication for the Profession Impact No Patient or Public Contribution The purpose of this manuscript is to offer an overview of knowledge regarding Evidence‐Based Practice and implementation science. It addresses the question: What are the EBP implementation models used in nursing settings?Discursive paper.The databases were searched with the following keywords: ‘Nursing Faculty’, ‘Nurse educator’, ‘Academic’, ‘clinic’, ‘Evidence‐based implementation’, ‘evidence‐based practice’, ‘implementation’, ‘implementation science’, ‘undergraduate’, ‘nurse’. The search strategy aims to identify published studies. Eight databases were searched.There are specific implementation models for implementing EBP: the IOWA Model, the Stetler Model, the Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence‐Based Practice Model, the Stevens Star Model, the Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS), the Advancing Research and Clinical practice through close collaboration (ARCC) model. They were analysed according to the Nilsen classification. An evidence‐based implementation project must be structured. First, it is necessary to choose an implementation model, then identify one or more implementation strategies, and finally, plan evaluation for implementation outcome. The use of implementation science ensures successful implementation or at least highlights barriers that need adjustment. Effective utilisation of implementation science facilitates the transfer of obtained results to similar contexts.Implementation science complements the EBP process perfectly and ensures the proper implementation of evidence.EBP mentors now have the entire structure of implementation science to succeed in implementing evidence‐based data in both academic and clinical settings.The discursive paper addresses the difficulties of implementing evidence in academic or clinical settings. Implementation science is the bridge between evidence and practice. Nurses now have everything they need to implement evidence‐based practice successfully.There was no patient or public involvement in the design or writing of this discursive article.

A total of 10 focus groups were held with adolescents living with diabetes, their parents and health professionals in order to explore their needs in therapeutic education. The analysis showed that the relationship of trust was a central concern for a number of participants. Several adults were divided between a feeling of confidence inspired by the need to empower adolescents to cope with the chronic condition and a sense of distrust inspired by the idea of carelessness and irresponsibility thought to characterize adolescence. Adolescents, for their part, seemed relatively clear-sighted about how they can be perceived, and blamed adults for not trusting them. These findings emphasize the importance of considering the representations at stake in the dynamics of the therapeutic relationship in order to better understand the construction of the relational climate.

We explore representations of well-being in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes in order to better understand their expectations and needs in therapeutic patient education. In total, 28 interviews were performed and then submitted to thematic content analysis and lexicometric analysis. Results show the intervention of psychosocial processes in the relationship that adolescents maintain with well-being and self-management. More specifically, we observed that well-being is impacted by areas of tension between the expectations of adolescents and the therapeutic objectives expressed by health professionals. These tensions should be taken into account in the conception, implementation, and evaluation of therapeutic education programs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
