In the ever-evolving healthcare landscape, nurses are at the forefront of patient care. Nurses’ procedural skills are the lifeblood of quality care. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a useful game changer that can change how we approach nursing practice. This scoping review of reviews was conducted with the aim of determining the potential of AI in improving nurses’ clinical, educational, decision-making, informational, and research skills.

Eight electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, CINAHL, ProQuest, Microsoft Academic, and OpenGrey) were searched to find all studies (peer-reviewed and grey literature) published up to September 2024 using the keywords AI, nursing skills, and related terms. The Google Scholar search engine was used to find relevant sources and complete the search coverage. Data collected from included studies on each role that AI could play in nurses' skills were analyzed using narrative methods.

finally, thirty review studies were included. Accordingly, AI has a beneficial effect on six main themes (education, decision, clinical practice, research, information, and psychiatric nursing) and thirty-three subthemes.

The results of our study showed that AI plays a fundamental role in improving the clinical, educational, decision-making, informational, and research skills of nurses. The integration of AI technologies not only fosters better patient outcomes but also equips nurses with the tools necessary for continuous professional development and efficiency. Future research should continue to explore specific applications and address any barriers to implementation to fully realize the benefits AI can bring to the nursing profession.

Adhering to nursing professional ethics codes and being familiar with these codes enables nurses to make sound ethical decisions in challenging circumstances. Recognizing the significance of awareness regarding professional ethics codes and their continuous growth, this study was conducted to determine and compare the influence of classroom-based and short message service (SMS) training on the ethical sensitivity of nursing students.

This study employed a quasi-experimental design and was conducted in 1401 at Yasuj University of Medical Sciences in Iran. The participants included 120 nursing students who were selected using convenience sampling based on criteria such as enrollment in the bachelor's nursing program, ability to communicate effectively, willingness to participate in the study, and scoring 50 or lower on the ethical sensitivity questionnaire. The samples were randomly assigned to three groups: intervention 1, intervention 2, and control. After obtaining the necessary ethical approvals, data were collected using the Lützen Ethical Sensitivity Questionnaire. Data were collected immediately before and one month after the completion of interventions. The intervention group received a blended teaching approach, which included concept mapping, small group discussions, and role-playing sessions conducted twice a week for one month. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency, and percentage) and inferential statistical methods (paired t-test, chi-square test, and ANOVA) using SPSS software version 21.

There was a significant difference in the mean age of students among the three groups, flipped classroom, short message service, and control (p = 0.047). However, no significant difference was observed in terms of gender distribution among the three groups (p = 0.291). Prior to the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in the overall mean score of ethical sensitivity among the three groups (p < 0.05). However, after the intervention, a significant difference was observed (p < 0.05). Post-hoc comparisons revealed a significant difference in the ethical sensitivity scores of students among the flipped classroom, short message service, and control groups (p = 0.001).

Based on the effectiveness of both the flipped classroom and short message service methods in enhancing the ethical sensitivity of nursing students, it is recommended to incorporate these educational approaches into the nursing curriculum for planning and implementation.

Like other countries in the world, Iran is facing the problem of a shortage of nurses. Meanwhile, many Iranian nurses migrate to other countries every year. The present study aims to assess the relationships between migration intention, workload, and a healthy work environment for nurses.

This cross-sectional correlational study was conducted in 2020 using a proportional stratified sampling of 360 nurses working in the Iran University of Medical Sciences (IUMS) teaching hospitals. The study data were collected through a demographic questionnaire, the nurses’ intention to migrate questionnaire, the NASA task load index, and the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses Healthy Work Environment Assessment. In this study, we used the independent t-test, analysis of variance, and the Pearson correlation coefficient for data analysis at a significance level of <0.05 in SPSS software, version 16.

The Mean±SD intention to migrate score was 65.59±33.51. A weak but significant positive correlation existed between the intention to migrate and workload (r=0.166, P=0.002). There was an inverse and weak relationship between the intention to migrate and a healthy work environment (r=-0.160, P=0.002). There was also a significant relationship between the intention of nurses to migrate and their work experience (P=0.048) and employment status (P=0.001).

The prevention of nurses’ migration must be investigated thoroughly to determine the reasons. But according to the results of this study, providing a healthy work environment and maintaining the current workforce by providing the indicators desired by nurses may partly prevent excessive migration of nurses.

 Nurses who care for patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) face challenges in providing care for these patients. This study aimed to explain the nurses’ perception of challenges in caring for patients with COVID-19.

 This study was carried out using the content analysis method in 2020. In this study, 28 nurses were selected via purposive sampling. Individual and semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect the data. Data collection continued until data saturation. Content analysis was used to categorize the data and the method proposed by Elo and Kyngäs was also applied to analyze the data.

 Nurses’ challenges were classified into three categories including organizational problems, defective communication process, and psychosocial challenges. The first category was divided into two subcategories including shortage of nurses and lack of personal protective equipment. The second category included two subcategories of defective communication with colleagues and defective communication with the patients and their families. Moreover, the third category was classified into two subcategories including psychological distress and sociocultural challenges.

 To address the challenges of nurses in caring for patients with COVID-19, the shortage of nurses should be eliminated. Nurses need to participate in comprehensive communication skills training courses. Furthermore, it is necessary to develop educational programs and present them to the public based on the cultural context of the society.

 In his Masnavi, Bīdil has seriously addressed human beings as a pivotal character. Human beings, his dimensions and existential potentials are among the most important concerns of the poet. To Biddle, all manifestations of existence lie in human "perception". In his stories - where there is only one single central character - Bīdil narrates the journey of human in search of his own existence. In this journey, he finally realizes that there is nothing beyond the scope of his own “perception” and “existence”. This makes man the sole truth of the universe. The study tries to show what sort of relationship Bīdil establishes with his hypothetical reader, as a “typical human”, and how he achieves this by drawing on the potentials and power in his narratives. This is carried out by examining the various aspects of narration in Bīdil’s longest stories. In fact, this study, in order to draw a pattern of Biddle's narrative at various layers of the story, along with examining the relationship between the "story" and "discourse", examines the relationship between the narrator, the single pivotal character of the story and the hypothetical reader.

Haemovigilance recognizes and eliminates complications caused by blood transfusions, improves the quality of nursing care, and increases patient satisfaction. With regards to the importance of the problem, this study aimed to determine the effect of haemovigilance education, using a conceptual map on the knowledge of nursing students. The present study was a semi-experimental study carried out at the Saveh University of Medical Science in 2017. Samples consisted of 60 nursing students of the Saveh University of Medical Science. They were selected by census sampling and based on entry and exit criteria and randomly assigned to two groups of test and control. For data collection use of the haemovigilance knowledge questionnaire. Its validity was confirmed and its reliability was reported as 0.83 using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The training program was conducted in 4 sessions. For data analysis, descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (independent t-test, chi-square, Fisher's exact test and Wilcoxon test) and SPSS-25 software were used. There was a significant difference between the two groups in the test and control groups (P=0.0001). There was a significant difference in the level of knowledge among students between the two groups after intervention (P = 0.0001). The students' knowledge score in the test and control groups was significantly different after the intervention (P = 0.0001). The mean change in knowledge of students before the intervention was significantly different in the test group (P = 0.0001). The Conceptual map is a new method that haemovigilance education through it increases the awareness of nursing students and reduces the complications of improper use of blood products in patients.

Aim and More than 50% of patients suffer from phantom limb pain after amputation. This study was conducted to identify the effect of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing on phantom limb pain in patients with amputation.
Methods and Materials: This quasi experimental study was performed in Yasuj City between 2012 to 2014. A total of forty (40) patients suffering from phantom limb pain, were selected using sampling and randomly divided into experimental and control groups. In the experimental group, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy was performed in twelve (12) sessions. The control group received no intervention. Data were gathered on phantom limb pain at pretreatment and post-treatment and analyzed using descriptive statistics, T test, Paired T test and Chi- square.
Findings: The results showed that there is a significant difference between the mean of phantom limb pain before and after intervention in the experimental group (P0.05).
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing reduced phantom limb pain in patients with amputation. Therefore, its use as a therapeutic and alleviative method could be suggested for patients suffering from phantom limb pain.

Aim and Hemodynamic monitoring of critical patients in intensive units is the cornstone of care. It constitutes an extensive part of care and is helpful in determination of the causes and the response to treatment of hemodynamic instability. Aim of this review articale is to investigate of the Non invasive hemodynamic monitoring in critical care units. 61 articales allocated for this study the time frame covered was 1890 to 2010. The references of this review article were obtained from pubmed,Elsevier, Google scholar, Elsevier mason, Science direct, JAMA. The authors have also used the keywords including: cardiac output, noninvasive, intensive care unit, oxygenation, upstream, Downstream Markers,Hemodynamic monitoring, minimum invasive methods, and Circulatory shock. the results of this study show that The desirable and premium monitoring of serious patients in the intensive care units have yet remained as a challenge. Awareness on the cardiac output which is the most important indicator of cardiac function is of vital importance for deciding on the method of clinical administration, selection of treatment method, clinical assessment, and prognosis of the patients suffering from cardiac problems. a lots of this study show that Non-invasive monitoring system is easier, safer, cheaper, and more effective than invasive monitoring system of cardiac output, if this method is used properly,it could reduce the mortality and morbidity rate.
