Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: To explore in-depth nurses\' use and further development of assessment skills in different nursing contexts in the first 2 years after graduation, and factors that influenced their use and development of assessment skills.
METHODS: The study had explorative qualitative design.
METHODS: Eight nurses who previously had been interviewed about their learning of physical assessment skills in clinical rotation as students participated in this follow-up study. Individual in-depth interviews were conducted, where the nurses spoke freely about their experiences after graduation.
RESULTS: Four prominent features influencing the nurses\' use and development of assessment skills were identified: (a) assessment approaches and readiness for practice, (b) the primacy of communication, (c) recognition related to performing assessments, and (d) the influence of organizational factors on their assessment applications.

摘要：
目的：探讨在毕业后的前2年中，护士在不同护理环境中对评估技能的深入使用和进一步发展。以及影响他们使用和发展评估技能的因素。
方法：本研究采用探索性的定性设计。
方法：8名护士以前接受过关于他们在临床轮换中学习身体评估技能的访谈，作为学生参加了这项后续研究。进行了个人深入访谈，护士们在毕业后自由地谈论他们的经历。
结果：确定了影响护士使用和发展评估技能的四个突出特征：（a）评估方法和实践准备，(b)通信的首要地位，(c)与执行评估有关的认可，和(D)组织因素对其评估应用的影响。
结论：新毕业的护士使用评估技能是提供整体护理的重要组成部分。这项研究表明，评估技能不仅是一项评估任务，而且在建立关系和支持护理能力的专业发展中至关重要。
未经批准：没有患者或公共捐款，由于研究设计。
