Description

Yongting Wang and co-authors build and test a training program for intensive care nurses in a 2023 study. The topic is care of the cuff, the small balloon that seals a breathing tube, since poor cuff care feeds lung infection in ventilated patients. Seventeen experts shaped the program through two rounds of a structured survey method. Then fifty-two nurses at a large hospital in Henan, China, took the four-week course.

The final program holds four top-level themes with layers of sub-points. After training, nurses' theory scores rose from about seventy-four to about eighty-eight, and their hands-on skill scores rose from about seventy-five to about eighty-seven. A survey of knowledge, attitude, and habits moved in step. The authors present the program as ready for wider use.
