Resumen
CHAABAN, Taghrid et al. Nurses prescribing medications in geriatric centers: international mapping. Index Enferm [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.3, pp.120-124. Epub 13-Jul-2020. ISSN 1699-5988.
Objective:
the aim of this study was to identify the perceptions of nurses and physicians and describe the involvement of nurses in medical prescription in general and that of antibiotics in particular, in geriatric institutions.
Methods:
a cross-sectional multinational study was conducted among nurses and physicians in geriatric institutions between April and October 2017. Data was collected using three online questionnaires in both French and English.
Results:
in total, 78.7% of doctors discussed the relevance of the prescription with competent nurses. A map shows the relationship between the evidence level of nursing role in medical prescription, and prescriptive authorization nurses in the 51 participating countries.
Conclusions:
interpersonal physician-nurse relationships are essential in facilitating the nursing role of effective treatment management.
