[Nursing care in the anesthesia recovery period: review of the literature].

The present study was undertaken after it was observed that patients submitted to surgical procedures arrived in recovery room with incomplete records, thus complicating continuing nursing care. The goal of the present study is to analyze bibliographic data from 1990 to 2002 on recovery room nursing care. The data was obtained from LILACS (Latin America Literature about Health Science), PERIENF (Nursing School Library of the University of São Paulo) and BDENF (Library of Federal University of Minas Gerais). The key words were nursing care, recovery room and immediate post-operative period. Only 16 articles were found, indicating a shortage of literature on this topic. The recovery room period is an important period of hospitalization and the data are essential for continuous care.

Mapping the literature of nephrology nursing.

OBJECTIVES: A bibliometric investigation was done to identify characteristics of the literature that nephrology nurses utilize. It is one component of a broader study, "Mapping the Literature of Nursing," by the Medical Library Association's Nursing and Allied Health Resources Section Task Force to Map the Literature of Nursing. METHODS: Following a standard protocol, this project utilized Bradford's Law of Scattering to analyze the literature of nephrology nursing. Citation analysis was done on articles that were published from 1996 to 1998 in a source journal. Cited journal titles were divided into three zones, and coverage in major article databases were scored for Zones 1 and 2. RESULTS: During the three-year period, journals were the most frequently cited format type. Eighty-one journals were cited in Zones 1 and 2. As Bradford's Law of Scattering predicted, a small number of the cited journals accounted for the most use. Coverage is most comprehensive for cited journals in Science Citation Index, PubMed/ MEDLINE, and EMBASE. When looking just at cited nursing journals, CINAHL and PubMed/MEDLINE provide the best indexing coverage. CONCLUSION: This study offers understanding of and insights into the types of information that nephrology nurses use for research. It is a valuable tool for anyone involved with providing nephrology nursing literature.

Nursing research information: are nurse educators and practitioners seeking it out?

This paper is concerned with if and how nurses are obtaining information on research into nursing. It is based on the results of a wider survey conducted in Northern Ireland in 1979, the aim of which was to assess the degree to which those most concerned with administering, managing, and teaching patient care were managing to obtain and implement information on nursing research. The main sources examined were nursing journals, nurse education curricula, and libraries relevant to nursing. For the purpose of the survey the writer took the view that, in terms of the relationship between nursing and practice, any dichotomy of opinion as to what nursing research is, or is not, is largely semantic. It was decided, therefore, to adopt the holistic approach to the term 'nursing research' as supported by Treece & Treece (1977) who claimed that 'Nursing Research includes the breadth and depth of the discipline of nursing, the rehabilitive, therapeutic and preventive aspects of nursing, as well as the preparation of practitioners and personnel involved in the total nursing sphere.
