Virtual Reality as a Method to Cope With Labor Pain: What Do Women Want?
This study aimed to determine what childbearing women want when using virtual reality as an intrapartum pain management method. Researchers performed a qualitative exploratory study using content analysis. Two focus groups were organized including pregnant women anticipating a vaginal birth and women who recently had given birth, no longer than 6 months ago. The focus groups included a 30-minute virtual reality demo. In total, 10 women participated.

Introducing an ultrasound-guided longer length peripheral IV catheter for patients with difficult venous access
CONCLUSIONS: First-stick success rate of LPIVCs, aided by improved purchase in the vein and visualisation with ultrasound guidance, was very high, superior to rates reported in other studies. The procedure provides a better patient experience as successful first attempts avoid unnecessary further insertion attempts. Other benefits are increased nursing time efficiency, a reduction in clinical waste and the lower cost of the equipment required.PMID:38700139 | DOI:10.12968/bjon.2024.33.7.S4 (Source: British Journal of Nursing)

Community support for families affected by dementia
This article will be of interest to community nurses, and health and social care professionals more generally, who may encounter families affected by dementia in community settings. Having a good knowledge of the support available and how to access it will allow community nurses to capitalise on the health promotion opportunities presented to them, when they come into contact with families affected by dementia in the course of their day-to-day practice.PMID:38701008 | DOI:10.12968/bjcn.2024.29.5.218 (Source: British Journal of Community Nursing)

Pets, obesity and nurses: surgical site infections in the community
Br J Community Nurs. 2024 May 2;29(5):248-250. doi: 10.12968/bjcn.2024.29.5.248.ABSTRACTMany surgical site infections (SSI) emerge after the patient is discharged from hospital. So, practice and district nurses should remain alert for SSIs and address modifiable risk factors, which include helping obese patients lose weight, optimising glucose control in people with diabetes and encouraging smoking cessation. Animals, including pets, are important reservoirs of resistant bacteria. By optimising SSI care, nurses can not only improve wound healing but also help preserve antibiotic efficacy.PMID:38701010 | DOI:10.12968/bjcn.2...

The author, through previous legal cases, shares how the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS)-an amendment to the Mental Capacity Act 2005-came into being, and the importance of community nurses in knowing the DoLS.PMID:38701011 | DOI:10.12968/bjcn.2024.29.5.214 (Source: British Journal of Community Nursing)
