Download or read book Nursing Knowledge and Pain Management written by Shana Stickrath and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use of tools, training and education for nurses in the hospitalized setting can provide the knowledge needed to deliver adequate pain management of patients as an alternative to not having any education, training or tools. Research supports the need for further education regarding proper pain management for hospitalized patients however; nurses are still not educated appropriately and therefore provide suboptimal pain relief for their patients. Based on the evidence-based research, the use of education and training prepares nurses to assess, treat, evaluate and document their patients' pain and provide better outcomes for their patients. Education programs significantly improve nurses' knowledge and attitudes to patient experience of pain. One study completed by McNamara, Harmon and Saunders (2012), supports that education programs improve nurses' understanding and skills regarding pain management. This proposal will include a problem statement that describes the issue in further depth. It will also discuss an implementation plan for the integration of training, education and guidelines for nurses in order to manage their patients experiencing pain. This proposal will contain an incorporated theory describing how nursing theory supports this plan. In addition, it will contain an evaluation and dissemination plan as well as a review of literature to support the proposed change.

Download or read book Cancer Care for the Whole Patient written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-03-19 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer care today often provides state-of-the-science biomedical treatment, but fails to address the psychological and social (psychosocial) problems associated with the illness. This failure can compromise the effectiveness of health care and thereby adversely affect the health of cancer patients. Psychological and social problems created or exacerbated by cancer-including depression and other emotional problems; lack of information or skills needed to manage the illness; lack of transportation or other resources; and disruptions in work, school, and family life-cause additional suffering, weaken adherence to prescribed treatments, and threaten patients' return to health. Today, it is not possible to deliver high-quality cancer care without using existing approaches, tools, and resources to address patients' psychosocial health needs. All patients with cancer and their families should expect and receive cancer care that ensures the provision of appropriate psychosocial health services. Cancer Care for the Whole Patient recommends actions that oncology providers, health policy makers, educators, health insurers, health planners, researchers and research sponsors, and consumer advocates should undertake to ensure that this standard is met.
Download or read book Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.

Download or read book Improving Palliative Care for Cancer written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-10-19 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our society's aggressive pursuit of cures for cancer, we have neglected symptom control and comfort care. Less than one percent of the National Cancer Institute's budget is spent on any aspect of palliative care research or education, despite the half million people who die of cancer each year and the larger number living with cancer and its symptoms. Improving Palliative Care for Cancer examines the barriersâ€"scientific, policy, and socialâ€"that keep those in need from getting good palliative care. It goes on to recommend public- and private-sector actions that would lead to the development of more effective palliative interventions; better information about currently used interventions; and greater knowledge about, and access to, palliative care for all those with cancer who would benefit from it.
Download or read book Nursing Knowledge and Attitudes Toward Cancer Pain Management written by Letitia Blyden and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain has been documented as a significant problem for patients suffering with cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate evidence that suggests nursing knowledge and attitudes are the compounding factors that influence how effectively pain is managed. A survey of 29 registered nurses from a teaching hospital in the greater New York Metropolitan area was conducted to determine nursing knowledge and attitudes toward cancer pain management. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire and the Nurses Knowledge and Attitudes Toward Pain Management survey was utilized (Myers, 1985). Results revealed that the nurses in this study had a mean knowledge score of 13.93 out of a possible score of 20. The attitude portion of the survey score, were, 32.17 out of a possible score of 15-75. Both knowledge and attitude showed no positive correlation between nursing knowledge and attitudes toward cancer pain management. The current study reaffirmed the findings of previous studies, which, indicated that many nurses maintain a deficient knowledge of pain assessment intervention. The research design utilized was a non-experimental descriptive study. Imogene King's Theory for Nursing, which was employed as the theoretical framework to accumulate subsequent knowledge and better understand why nurses are not attaining the goal of pain management. Overall scores in this study on knowledge and attitude were much lower, compared to scores obtained by Myers in her study, even though the sample size used by this researcher was smaller. Recommendations include that further education is needed for nurses to increase knowledge about the patient suffering from cancer pain, and management needed to provide an optimal level of comfort for the patients in need of care.
