Meeting Objectives: The primary objectives of the meeting included ensuring adherence to medical documentation guidelines, initiating a research analysis on the effectiveness of a pressure injury prevention bundle in reducing injury or disability rates, obtaining authorization for dedicated clinical hours, and conducting an extensive literature review.

MSN Practicum Conference Call Discussion

Documentation

Accurate and comprehensive medical documentation is essential, particularly for elderly patients in critical care settings. The focus is on maintaining a detailed record of 20 practicum hours and 100 clinical practice hours with the approval of the Preceptor. Additionally, clinical sessions and evaluations must be systematically organized.

Action Item: Obtain feedback from the supervisor regarding documentation protocols and clinical activities. Implement a structured data collection method to ensure all relevant details on pressure injuries in older adults are meticulously recorded. Furthermore, establish standardized guidelines for data entry and secure storage.

PICOT Question

The formulated PICOT question for this research is: In elderly patients in critical care requiring complete assistance (Population), does the implementation of a pressure injury prevention bundle (Intervention), as compared to standard care practices (Comparison), result in a more significant reduction in pressure injuries (Outcome) over a three-month period (Time)?

Action Item: Develop a comprehensive intervention protocol and recruit participants for the study. The intervention will be administered to elderly individuals with existing pressure injuries, and the outcomes will be meticulously assessed. Additionally, a thorough literature review will be conducted to support the research findings, ensuring ethical compliance throughout the data collection process.

Clinical Hours

Authorization for dedicated clinical hours is necessary to meet the practicum requirements. The number of clinical hours assigned for each assessment must be clearly identified and documented.

Action Item: Conduct surveys with healthcare providers to assess their perspectives on pressure injury prevention and its impact on patient outcomes. Evaluate elderly patients’ self-care capabilities and their understanding of pressure injury prevention strategies. Provide patient education on self-management techniques and pressure injury prevention measures. Lastly, conduct a comprehensive evaluation of patient needs.

Literature Review

A systematic review of existing literature published between 2019 and 2023 is required. This review will focus on studies examining the impact of personalized self-management support, care coordination, and pressure injury prevention guidelines in comparison to standard care practices among elderly patients in critical care. The analysis should assess outcomes over a three-month period, including pressure injury incidence, symptom management, quality of life, and hospitalization rates.

Action Item: Validate and document the completion of practicum and clinical hours. Conduct an in-depth literature review to gather significant data on pressure injuries in elderly populations. Evaluate research findings, identify major research gaps, and develop an evidence-based intervention strategy. Maintain accurate records of all findings and analyze the benefits and implications of the capstone project.
