Objective This study seeks to explore the experiences of emergency nurses in providing care to patients nearing the end of life and to identify the needs of emergency nurses in the palliative care (PC) process. Methods A qualitative meta-synthesis approach (following Enhancing Transparency in Reporting the Synthesis of Qualitative Research guidelines) was implemented to systematically review relevant qualitative studies. A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases, encompassing PubMed, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature; (CINAHL), PsycINFO, Web of Science, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), Wanfang database and Scopus. The search duration was from database inception to March 2025. Results In total, 22 studies complied with the inclusion criteria and were included in the meta-synthesis. Three main themes were identified: (i) needs for emergency palliative care (EPC) and current practice in emergency departments (EDs); (ii) emotional, ethical and communication experiences of nurses in providing PC in EDs; (iii) nurses’ perceived needs for training, support and system coordination. Across studies, EPC in the ED was described as occurring alongside acute life-saving care. Nurses’ experiences and attitudes towards EPC varied significantly, ranging from positive engagement to perceived incompatibility with their roles in emergency care. Conclusion This meta-synthesis highlights the complexity of providing PC in EDs and the urgency of implementing systematic interventions. To enhance the effectiveness and quality of EPC, it is necessary to provide systematic support and targeted strategies, thereby helping emergency nurses better meet the needs of patients at the end of life.

Background Falls are among the most common adverse events in hospitals, causing significant harm to patients and increasing healthcare costs. In 2023, over 160 000 falls were reported in China, with 62.5% of hospitalised patients suffering fall-related injuries. Falls not only prolong hospital stays but also negatively impact nursing quality and healthcare system efficiency.Objective This study explored the lived experiences of nurse managers in preventing and managing inpatient falls in hospital settings and examined the contextual and managerial factors influencing fall prevention practices.Methods We conducted a qualitative study using a phenomenological approach to explore the lived experiences of nurse managers in managing inpatient falls. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 16 participants from a tertiary hospital in Shanghai. While data collection followed phenomenological principles to elicit rich experiential narratives, thematic analysis was guided by grounded theory coding techniques to inductively identify and categorise themes. NVivo 12 software was used for data management.Results Six interrelated themes emerged, reflecting nurse managers’ experiences across the stages of patient admission, hospitalisation and discharge. At admission, participants emphasised the limitations of existing fall risk assessment tools and the need for multidisciplinary collaboration and intelligent technologies to achieve precise stratification. During hospitalisation, they described ongoing challenges in conducting dynamic reassessments, implementing personalised interventions, managing limited staffing and environmental constraints and promoting patient compliance through effective education. In the discharge phase, nurse managers reflected on the emotional and ethical tensions between ensuring patient safety and respecting autonomy, underscoring the importance of cultivating a strong safety culture and reinforcing nurses’ sense of responsibility. Collectively, these findings reveal that fall prevention is not merely a procedural task but a dynamic, interpretive process shaped by professional accountability, emotional strain and systemic limitations.Conclusion Nurse managers’ experiences reflect the complex interplay between managerial responsibility, cultural caregiving norms and organisational limitations in fall prevention. Strengthening multidisciplinary collaboration, integrating intelligent technologies and promoting a proactive safety culture are crucial for improving fall management. Policymakers should also consider China’s evolving caregiver-free ward initiatives to transition towards more nurse-led and patient-centred safety systems. Future research should further explore patient and family perspectives and evaluate strategies for sustainable cultural and structural change in fall prevention.
Cardiovascular disease is an escalating global health concern, leading to an increasing demand for cardiac surgeries. Nutrition plays a critical role during the perioperative period. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols emphasize the importance of early gastrointestinal function restoration. Among nutritional metrics, protein intake is more closely associated with improved outcomes than total energy intake. This study aims to assess perioperative protein intake in cardiac surgery patients and identify factors associated with malnutrition. In this prospective observational study, 197 patients undergoing elective cardiac surgeries at two hospitals in Shanghai were enrolled. Protein intake during the first 7 postoperative days was measured using 24-h dietary recall. Nutritional status was evaluated using the NRS-2002 score and serum albumin levels on admission, as well as on postoperative day 3 and 7. Generalized estimating equations (GEE) were used to identify predictors of malnutrition. The average protein intake was 0.58 ± 0.24 g/kg/day, which was below the recommended 1.5 g/kg/day, with only 4.1

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To explore the effects of the health failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA) used in intrahospital transport (IHT) of critically ill patients from emergency department (ED) to the intensive care unit (ICU). BACKGROUND Patients who were transported from ED to ICU is highly critical. IHT of these patients is potentially risky, which may associate with adverse events (AEs). The concern of safe IHT can be addressed by performing proactive risk assessments using HFMEA and implementing the findings after the ED of our hospital being reconstructed. DESIGN A qualitative action research study combined with a quantitative cross-sectional method. METHODS According to the HFMEA method, the failure modes of IHT were identified and analysed, and the effect of alterations was verified. We built a project team, drawn up a IHT flow chart, defined steps of IHT, classified the failure modes, calculated risk priority number and analysed by the decision tree, then formulated an action plan and verified the effects of the alterations. Incidence of AEs of transport was compared before and after HFMEA.SQUIRE 2.0 checklist was chosen on reporting the study process. RESULTS The HFMEA outlined a total of 5 major steps and 16 sub-steps in the IHT process. From this, 64 potential failure modes were identified, with 17 modes having a RPN score higher than 8. Determined by the decision tree, there were 20 priority control failure modes, of which 16 involved 8 IHT alterations. Notable work-flow alterations included use of a three-stage hierarchical transport strategy based on patients' condition assisted by the intelligent assessment system. Incidence of AEs was significantly decreased from 19.64% to 7.14% after the implementation of HFMEA (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Application of the HFMEA in optimising IHT process can improve the safety of transportation, which is worthy of promotion. Hierarchical transport scheme can reduce the incidence of AEs in IHT of critical emergency patients, which mainly includes the integration and construction of the transport team, equipment configuration and patient information system based on the classification of patients' condition. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Nurses play a crucial role in the IHT process. HFMEA can be adopted for proactive risk assessment of critically ill patients' IHT from ED to ICU which involves multiple processes. The IHT hierarchical strategy based on the results of failure mode analysis should be more widely used to further verify its clinical effects.
