Background: Clinical Teaching (CT) is a training and evaluation tool used by Nursing courses. In view of the path taken, technical dexterity and expansion of theoretical knowledge, the performance and training of the student as an upcoming professional is evaluated. It is essential to find out the importance of CT as a learning method. Objective: To analyze the importance of Clinical Teaching in the training of nurses. Methodology: Integrative literature review, based on the do Joanna Briggs Institute methodology, in the PubMed, SciELO, BVS and RCAAP databases, between January 2012 and December 2018. Articles about nursing students and / or nurses, over 18 years old, with a focus on CT were included. Results: In the initial research, 20538 was obtained and, after implementing the previously established criteria, in the end 10 articles were obtained, which were analyzed in detail. Five are quantitative studies and another five are qualitative studies. As for quantitative studies, they used several instruments to obtain the data. As for qualitative studies, most of them used interviews and open-ended questionnaires. Nursing students translate the CT as positive, despite seeing discrepancies between the knowledge acquired in the classroom and those exercised in clinical practice. They highlight the interaction with clients, the development of the therapeutic relationship and the opportunity to exercise what they have learned in a theoretical context with a positive connotation. Conclusions: Despite stress and anxiety, it was found the importance of performing CT in the context of clinical practice for personal and professional development, both in terms of technical dexterity and interpersonal skills, resulting in better training for the future nursing professional. Better knowledge of the stress factors of the TC allows to optimize facilitating strategies and optimize this learning period.
Development of medicines and vaccines for COVID-19 amplified the need for all US communities to participate in research. This recognition spurred interest in adopting inclusive and equitable research practices across industry and the clinical research ecosystem in general. Between 2018-2021, regulatory bodies, professional organizations, and working groups issued policy and/or recommendations outlining measures that support the conduct of inclusive and equitable clinical trials. We applied previously published multi-themed strategies, multi-stakeholder recommendations, and calls to action by surveying industry to document baseline practices towards equitable clinical trial representation in the US. Research Question: What strategies are industry leaders deploying to increase diversity in clinical trials? Methods: Using a 4-staged approach, we first identified 48 success factors sourced from 12 documents. This analysis included previously documented measures that are both inclusive of diverse populations as well as practices that facilitate insights from diverse communities. Second, a survey tool was developed that organized the individual success factors into 6 categories with one open-ended question on ecosystem changes; survey measures and 4 choices for each factor were “Actively implementing,” “Recommended to be implemented,” “No plans to implement,” and “No answer.” Third, the survey was administered between April 10-30, 2021, to 12 pharmaceutical companies all having a proven external commitment to health equity in oncology and all are represented on the 2021 1Q Biopharma top 25 by Market Cap report. Fourth, responses were anonymized and aggregated; results were provided to respondents. Results: The response rate was 67% (8/12). Responders indicated success factors across two major implementation categories as follows: “actively implemented” (51%); “recommended/planned for implementation” (44%). No responders added any additional success factors via free text. Being “actively implemented” was highest for the 3 categories “site selection” (78%), “general capabilities” (72%), “leadership” (53%). “Recommended/planned for implementation” was highest for the 3 categories “participant focused” (50%), “other factors” (50%), “racial and ethnic minority group data (REMG)” (48%). Conclusions: Pharmaceutical companies reported active implementation of success factors sourced from public documents across all categories. As an example, stakeholders have generally considered thoughtful site selection an important measure to enroll diverse representation in clinical trials as it may mitigate access barriers to participation. In the site selection category, the survey reported 7/8 companies were actively implementing three measures and 5/8 were actively implementing two measures. An approach and analysis should be considered for expansion to more biotech companies and include a process devised for annual fielding and transparently reporting results. Citation Format: Jeanne M.
