Smärtbehandling - Sjuksköterskans inställning till ordination och dokumentation - En empirisk studie
The aim of this empirical study was to investigate how nurses on a ward within
the emergency clinic deal with analgesia prescriptions and the pain management
documentation. The used method was divided into chart reviews and qualitative
interviews with nurses in clinical practice at the ward. This means that both a
qualitative and quantitative approach was desired. The results incline that nurses
generally apply to the laws and restrictions surrounding the nursing discipline, as
used in pain treatment. Thus they generally fulfill the obligations accounting to
documentation. The questions concerning how nurses handle temporary and general
prescriptions imply that they are used with great caution.
