Two-Tier Instant-Feedback Assessment Strategy for Improvement of Student Concentration
In this study, a two-tier instant-feedback assessment model was constructed using the Zuvio instant-feedback system and oral questions; this model was applied to conduct formative assessments for an introductory computer course. We adopted a one-group pretest-posttest approach with 52 first-year nursing students. The course ran for 6 weeks with two classes per week. The course content of mBlock language and the educational robotic kit mbot was introduced in the first 2 weeks. From the third to the sixth week, the two-tier instant assessment strategy was added. At the end of the teaching experiment, surveys on concentration...

Effects of a Patient Experience–Based Virtual Reality Blended Learning Program on Nursing Students
This study aimed to evaluate the performance of the patient experience virtual reality blended learning program developed for nursing students. This study is significant in that it presents a program that enables nursing students to not only experience being perioperative patients themselves but also experience their conditions in places other than hospitals, which are generally used as training locations. The analytical results of this study indicated that nursing students who virtually experienced the conditions of perioperative patients through virtual reality blended learning showed increased levels of empathy, positiv...

Caregivers' Technology Acceptance of an In-Home Care Management App: A Mixed-Methods Study
This study aimed to construct a health application that could effectively meet family caregivers' needs in providing home care. Mixed methods were adopted to explore their acceptance of the application, as well as to gather their suggestions for improving the application. A nonrandomized controlled group pretest–posttest design was utilized. The participants were family caregivers who were recruited via purposive sampling at a regional hospital in Taipei, Taiwan. The caregivers used the application to monitor and manage the health of those they were caring for. Elderly family caregivers scored 1.57 and 1.16 points higher...

Implementing a Novel Interprofessional Clinical Informatics Curriculum
A novel interprofessional clinical informatics curriculum was developed, piloted, and implemented, using an academic medical record. Targeted learners included undergraduate, graduate, and professional students across five health science colleges. A team of educators and practitioners representing those five health science colleges was formed in 2016, to design, develop, and refine educational modules covering the essentials of clinical informatics. This innovative curriculum consists of 10 online learning modules and 18 unique imbedded exercises that use standardized patient charts and tailored user views. The exercises a...

Effect of Telehealth Interventions on Blood Pressure Control: A Meta-analysis
The aim of this study was to find out the effects of telehealth interventions on blood pressure control by conducting a meta-analysis. Six databases were used. The literature review covered the period between December 1, 2020, and January 26, 2021. The meta-analysis was conducted by comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software version 2.2. Categorical variables were analyzed by odds ratios at a confidence interval of 95%. In data formatting and analysis, independent groups (sample size, P value); independent groups (mean, SD); Cohen's d, SE; and paired groups (N, P value) were used. The bias risk was assessed based on the Revised ...

Critical Care Nurses' Perceptions of Clinical Alarm Management on Nursing Practice
The alarm management of physiological monitoring systems is a key responsibility of critical care nurses. However, the high numbers of false and nonactionable (true but clinically irrelevant) alarms cause distractions to healthcare professionals, interruptions to nursing workflow, and ignoring of crucial tasks. Therefore, understanding how nurses manage large amounts of alarms in their daily work could provide a direction to design interventions to prevent adverse patient care effects. A qualitative design with focus group interviews was conducted with 37 nurses in Taiwan. Content analysis was performed to analyze the inte...
