Turkish Validation of the MISSCARE Survey – Pediatric Version

Missed nursing care as reported by paediatric nurses: A cross‐sectional study

“…Since the validation study (Bagnasco et al, 2018), the tool has been used only once (Calikusu Incekar et al, 2020). However, the psychometric properties of this instrument can be considered acceptable, based on the results (Bagnasco et al, 2018;Calikusu Incekar et al, 2020).…”

“…In the literature, many reasons for MNC have been reported; however, only a few have been reported within paediatric settings. The most frequently cited reasons were inadequate numbers of nurses, unbalanced patient assignments, or urgent patient situations (Bagnasco et al, 2018;Calikusu Incekar et al, 2020;Lake et al, 2017;Ogboenyiya et al, 2020) & Suhonen, 2021). The main strategy may be to highlight the importance of this issue, not only in multiple studies, but especially in settings such as paediatrics, where the issue is still understudied.…”

“…In international studies, this is also supported by the fact that, for the present, only the MISSCARE Survey‐Pediatric tool is available to assess the MNC in the paediatric setting. Since the validation study (Bagnasco et al., 2018), the tool has been used only once (Calikusu Incekar et al., 2020). However, the psychometric properties of this instrument can be considered acceptable, based on the results (Bagnasco et al., 2018; Calikusu Incekar et al., 2020).…”

However, the psychometric properties of this instrument can be considered acceptable, based on the results (Bagnasco et al., 2018; Calikusu Incekar et al., 2020). The problem that arises in terms of the evaluation of missed care is mainly the inconsistency within the evaluation in a number of studies, despite the recommendations generated from the international RANCARE project (Papastavrou & Suhonen, 2021).…”

“…Almost all Slovak and Czech nurses reported omissions of at least one nursing care activity during the last work shift in our study. Interestingly, almost 99% of Turkish paediatric nurses reported leaving at least one activity undone (Calikusu Incekar et al., 2020). On the contrary, about 50% of American paediatric nurses reported omissions of at least one nursing care activity during their previous work shift (Lake et al., 2017).…”
