“…Individualisation is time-consuming (Agyeman-Yeboah et al, 2017;Chang et al, 2016). If it is also born in mind that some nurses feel that recording reduces the amount of time they spend directly caring for the patient (Rouleau et al, 2017) or, due to their lack of knowledge, individualisation takes them longer, the result is that SCP individualisation process is no longer considered a priority (Ballantyne, 2016;Lima & Melo, 2012). Consequently, they leave the recording of the individualisation for other shifts (Stevenson, Nilsson, Petersson, & Johansson, 2010) or, to move forward with their work and gain time, they select the SCP before the patient is assessed (Lee, Yeh, & Ho, 2002).…”

Objective To identify and classify the barriers and facilitators of the individualisation process of the standardised care plan in hospitalisation wards. Background The administration of individualised care is one of the features of the nursing process. Care plans are the structured record of the diagnosis, planning and evaluation stages of the nursing process. Although the creation of standardised care plan has made recording easier, it is still necessary to record the individualisation of the care. It is important to study the elements that influence the individualisation process from the nurses' perspective. Design Qualitative study with the grounded theory approach developed by Strauss and Corbin. Methods Thirty‐nine nurses from three hospitals participated by way of theoretical sampling. In‐depth interviews were conducted, as well as participant observation, document analysis and focus group discussion. The analysis consisted of open, axial and selective coding until data saturation was reached. EQUATOR guidelines for qualitative research (COREQ) were applied. Results For both barriers and facilitators, three thematic categories emerged related to organisational, professional and individual aspects. The identified barriers included routines acquired in the wards, the tradition of narrative records, lack of knowledge and limited interest in individualisation. The identified facilitators included holding clinical care sessions, use of standardised care plan and an interface terminology, the nurse's expertise and willingness to individualise. Conclusion The individualisation process of the standardised care plan involves multiple barriers and facilitators, which influence its degree of accuracy. Relevance to clinical practice Implementing strategies at an organisational level, professional level and individual level to improve the way the process is carried out would encourage individualising the standardised care plan in a manner that is consistent with the needs of the patient and family; it would improve the quality of care and patient satisfaction.

“…According to the WHO, the absence of legal guidelines on privacy and patient confidentiality is regarded as the most important significant barrier to m-Health implementation in regions such as Europe and America [41]. Furthermore, in a recent overview of systematic reviews assessing the impact of ICTs in nursing care, the most frequently reported themes were related to documentation time; assessment, care planning, and evaluation; nurses' perspective of the quality of care provided; information quality and access; and time spent on patient care [42]. In our study, 78.6% of the participants perceived these privacy and security concerns as a major barrier, even though Ecuador has laws addressing patient's confidentiality and management of medical records.…”

Background:Nurses represent a key group for the implementation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), however, few studies have explored the current use of these technologies among healthcare professionals in developing countries. Our study aims to achieve a better understanding of how Ecuadorian nurses perceive the theoretical advantages and limitations of ICTs, as well as to explore the current use of these technologies in the setting of the professional nursing practice. Methods:We conducted an anonymous survey-based cross-sectional study where 191 nurses rated their frequency of use and level of agreement to specific statements on perceptions related to ICTs. For the statistical analyses, adjusted binomial logistic regressions and the chi-squared test for association were applied. Results:In general, 96.3% of nurses reported the use of ICTs to communicate with colleagues, and 80.1% reported the use of ICTs to communicate with patients. More than 70% of participants agreed that ICTs can be useful to promote professional services, help in the search for new job opportunities and/or professional development, foster health promotion, and improve the workflow with colleagues. Meanwhile, 78.6% of nurses had privacy or security concerns about personal and/or patient information, and 60.6% reported not having enough time neither to learn how to use ICTs nor to use them. Conclusion:High use of ICTs was found among Ecuadorian nurses for communicating with both colleagues and patients. Most of the participants had a positive perception of the use of ICTs in the healthcare practice, particularly among younger nurses. Finally, the major reservations perceived were related to privacy and patient confidentiality, and lack of time to learn how to use, or use ICTs.

“…The overall quality of the included reviews was also good, with a number of high quality studies and only few studies with methodological limitations. Non-systematic reviews generally had a lower quality score on the AMSTAR scale because this tool was specifically designed to assess systematic reviews of quantitative studies, and there is no equivalent tool for other types of reviews [46].…”
