“…Ten quantitative studies used different instruments to measure nurses' attitude toward patient advocacy. All of these studies consistently reported that nurses, in many different specialties, have positive attitude toward patient advocacy [22,26,[28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. In Abbaszadeh et al [34] study, nurses reported they should provide protective nursing advocacy for their patients while Nurse interns believe that patents should be provided interpreter when needed as part of advocacy [36].…”

To fulfill the advocacy-nursing role, nurses need to understand the concept of advocacy by understanding its meaning, definitions and attributes. Several definitions of advocacy exist in the literature because it is defined in a variable way, depending on the context in which it is used. Meaning of advocacyAdvocacy means ensuring those who are not always seen or heard have a voice to join other voices in decision-making and change process. The concept of advocacy originates from the Latin word 'advocatus' , meaning one who is summoned to give evidence. The actions of advocacy are defined to verbally support argumentation for a cause. The action of advocacy is similar to the function of an advocate [5].

IntroductionSafe anaesthesia care is a fundamental part of healthcare. In a previous study, registered nurse anaesthetists (RNAs) had the highest task frequency, with the largest amount of multitasking and interruptions among all professionals working in a surgical team. There is a lack of knowledge on how these factors are distributed during the intraoperative anaesthesia care process, and what implications they might have on safety and quality of care.ObjectiveTo map the RNAs’ work as done in practice, including tasks, multitasking, interruptions and their causes, and interactions, during all phases of the intraoperative anaesthesia work process.MethodsStructured observations of RNAs (n=8) conducted during 30 procedures lasting a total of 73 hours in an operating department at a county hospital in Sweden, using the Work Observation Method By Activity Timing tool.ResultsHigh task intensity and multitasking were revealed during preparation for anaesthesia induction (79 tasks/hour, 61.9% of task time spent multitasking), anaesthesia induction (98 tasks/hour, 50.7%) and preparation for anaesthesia maintenance (86 tasks/hour, 80.2%). Frequent interruptions took place during preoperative preparation (4.7 /hour), anaesthesia induction (6.2 /hour) and preparation for anaesthesia maintenance (4.3 /hour). The interruptions were most often related to medication care (n=54, 19.8%), equipment issues (n=40, 14.7%) or the procedure itself (n=39, 14.3%). RNAs’ work was conducted mostly independently (58.4%), but RNAs interacted with multiple professionals in and outside the operating room during anaesthesia.ConclusionThe tasks, multitasking, interruptions and their causes, and interactions during different phases illustrated the RNAs’ work as done, as part of a complex adaptive system. Management of safety in the most intense phases—preparing for anaesthesia induction, induction and preparing for anaesthesia maintenance—should be investigated further. The complexity and adaptivity of the nature of RNAs’ work should be taken into consideration in future management, development, research and education.
