METHODS: This was a qualitative study using conventional content analysis. The nurses were selected by purpose-based sampling and interviewed semi-structurally between April and June 2023 at the Children\'s Educational Therapy Center in Tabriz, Iran. The sample size was determined by the data saturation principle. The report of this research followed the COREQ guidelines.
RESULTS: Twelve nurses were interviewed. The analysis revealed four main categories: \"Disturbances in communication\", \"Disturbances in trust\", \"Disturbances in providing care\", and \"Nurses\' strategies to mitigate the challenges of mask usage. To solve the challenges caused by the mask, nurses used solutions such as removing the mask and mitigating the adverse effects of mask usage they used. The central theme of the study was \"Humanistic care requires trust-based communication\".
CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the communication challenges faced by pediatric nurses due to mask-wearing during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these challenges, nurses have developed innovative strategies to improve communication and build trust with their young patients. Further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of these strategies.
CONCLUSIONS: These strategies can be useful for other nurses who work with children in similar conditions. Further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of these strategies in different settings and populations.
方法:这是一项使用常规内容分析的定性研究。护士通过基于目的的抽样选择,并于2023年4月至6月在大不里士的儿童教育治疗中心进行了半结构性访谈。伊朗。样本量由数据饱和原理确定。这项研究的报告遵循了COREQ指南。
结果:对12名护士进行了访谈。分析揭示了四个主要类别:“通信中的干扰”,“信任中的干扰”,“提供护理的混乱”,和“护士”策略,以减轻面罩使用的挑战。为了解决面具带来的挑战,护士使用的解决方案,如去除口罩和减轻使用口罩的不良影响。研究的中心主题是“人文关怀需要基于信任的沟通”。
结论:这项研究强调了儿科护士在COVID-19大流行期间因戴口罩而面临的沟通挑战。尽管面临这些挑战,护士制定了创新策略,以改善与年轻患者的沟通并建立信任。需要进一步的研究来评估这些策略的有效性和可行性。
结论:这些策略对于在类似条件下与儿童一起工作的其他护士可能有用。需要进一步的研究来评估这些策略在不同环境和人群中的有效性和可行性。
