“…The papers included studies spanning the period between 2010 and 2015. Two studies were described as discourse analyses (Kelly et al 2012, Gillett 2014, eight employed surveys (Allnutt et al 2010, Ben Natan & Becker 2010, Van Tonder & Van Wyk 2011, Ben Natan et al 2013, Meiring & Van Wyk 2013, Kec ßeci et al 2014, Khoury et al 2011. Four employed qualitative interview or focus groups (Neilson & McNally 2010, Morris Thompson et al 2011, Lasiter & McLennon 2015, Norman 2015, the remaining studies employed qualitative analysis of published media and film.…”

“…These ndings align with a previous Israeli study that revealed an overall favorable public disposition towards the introduction of advanced nursing roles. However, a note of skepticism emerged, particularly regarding tasks like connecting and disconnecting patients from respirators and performing vaccinations not prescribed by a doctor, indicating a perceived distinction between nursing and medical procedures [19]. Notably, a similar skepticism was evident in a study by Parker et al [20], where patients identi ed speci c activities as unacceptable for NPs in primary healthcare.…”

Background: The inclusion of nurse practitioners (NPs) specializing in orthopedics shows potential for improving the quality of care for orthopedic patients. A critical aspect of assessing the feasibility and acceptance of introducing NPs into orthopedic settings involves understanding patients' perspectives on this role. This study aims to explore the receptiveness of orthopedic patients to treatment by orthopedic Nurse Practitioners (NPs). Additionally, it investigates potential associations between patients' willingness to engage with NPs, their familiarity with the NPs role, perceptions of nursing, and satisfaction with orthopedic nursing care. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved patients admitted to an orthopedic department in a central Israeli medical center between January and February 2023. Data was collected using a questionnaire consisting of five sections, validated by content experts. Statistical analyses, performed using SPSS, included descriptive statistics, independent samples t-tests, Pearson correlations, and linear regression. Results: In a diverse patient population, there was a moderate willingness for treatment by orthopedic NPs, with over two-thirds expressing strong openness. Patients exhibited high willingness for NPs involvement in various clinical tasks, yet lower for medication management and preoperative evaluation. Positive attitudes towards nurses and familiarity with the NPs role were significant predictors of patient willingness for NPs treatment. Conclusion: Patient acceptance of orthopedic NPs varies across different aspects of care. While there is overall willingness to receive care from NPs, these nuanced preferences should be considered when implementing NPs in orthopedic settings. Awareness and positive perceptions play crucial roles in shaping patients' willingness to receive care from these NPs. Trial registration: The research doesn’t report the results of a health care intervention.

Background The inclusion of nurse practitioners (NPs) specializing in orthopedics shows potential for improving the quality of care for orthopedic patients. A critical aspect of assessing the feasibility and acceptance of introducing NPs into orthopedic settings involves understanding patients’ perspectives on this role. This study aims to explore the receptiveness of orthopedic patients to treatment by orthopedic Nurse Practitioners (NPs). Additionally, it investigates potential associations between patients’ willingness to engage with NPs, their familiarity with the NPs role, perceptions of nursing, and satisfaction with orthopedic nursing care. Methods This cross-sectional study involved patients admitted to an orthopedic department in a central Israeli hospital between January and February 2023. Data was collected using a questionnaire consisting of five sections, validated by content experts. Statistical analyses, performed using SPSS, included descriptive statistics, independent samples t-tests, Pearson correlations, and linear regression. Results Orthopedic patient participants demonstrated a moderate willingness to undergo treatment by orthopedic NPs, with over two-thirds expressing strong openness. Patients displayed a high willingness for NPs to engage in various clinical tasks, albeit showing lesser enthusiasm for medication management and preoperative evaluation. Positive attitudes towards nurses and familiarity with the NP’s role emerged as significant predictors of patient receptiveness to NPs’ treatment. Conclusion Patient acceptance of orthopedic NPs varies across different aspects of care. While there is overall willingness to receive care from NPs, these nuanced preferences should be considered when implementing NPs in orthopedic settings.
