“…learning resource for nurses and midwives. Schumacher et al (2006) and Seibert et al (2007) both outlined their strategies for integrating genetics into nursing curricula, while the Nursing Genomics Program established by the Mayo clinic (Pestka and Brown, 2004) was awarded the US Magnet prize. There is thus evidence of leadership and real progress being demonstrated by nurses in relation to genetics, but this has to be tempered by studies that highlight challenges still to be addressed.…”

Genetics are becoming increasingly important within healthcare, but the evidence indicates that nurses are not confident in dealing with the genetics needs of their patients, and education provision is often inadequate. An innovative approach has been used to raise awareness of genetics and simultaneously to explore the learning needs of UK nurses. A template article tailored to the readership, followed by a questionnaire, was published in seven specialist nursing journals. The questionnaire sought to establish awareness of, and confidence in, genetics in everyday practice, and its perceived importance, using the seven UK nursing competences in genetics as a guide. Willingness to update knowledge and skills, and perceptions of managerial support were also explored. The competences are not used equally, or viewed with equal importance, and respondents (n ϭ 198) do not have the same confidence in demonstrating them, with deficits in two crucial areas of genetics competence. Post-registration genetics education has a significant influence on the frequency and confidence with which they are used. This study has highlighted that education initiatives need to use accessible, interactive learning approaches and engage support from senior nurses. The relevance and importance of genetics across diverse areas of nursing practice is yet to be fully appreciated.

Objetivo: Identificar las implicaciones y tendencias de la genética y genómica dentro de la práctica de la enfermería. Metodología: Revisión integrativa entre mayo y julio de 2013. Se adelantó una búsqueda y análisis de la literatura en la base de datos Science Direct que incluyó artículos, revisiones y editoriales, bajo los descriptores genética, genómica y enfermería, publicados de 1993 a 2013. Fueron encontradas 1056 piezas que relacionaban enfermería y genética, y de estas 127 asociaron los tres descriptores. Se seleccionaron 57, por su aporte a la comprensión de la relevancia del área temática dentro de la práctica de la enfermería. Resultados: El análisis cronológico de las referencias seleccionadas muestra el impacto de la genética y genómica en la práctica de la enfermería, visible en diferentes áreas que incluyen: 1) la práctica investigativa de enfermería, 2) el abogar por los pacientes que viven la experiencia de exámenes genéticos, 3) la educación para fortalecer competencias de enfermería, 4) los aspectos éticos y legales, 5) la política pública y 6) el rol de la genética en la clínica. Conclusiones: En los 20 últimos añosaños ha habido una proliferación importante del tema de la genética en enfermería, en especial un mayor interés por ella, así como por la genómica a partir del descubrimiento del genoma humano. A pesar del interés y del reconocimiento de la importancia del tema de genética y genómica y sus implicaciones para la educación, práctica e investigación en enfermería, el desarrollo teórico es aún incipiente.
