Research Abstract

Rapid advances in scientific technology have revolutionized the field of medical and nursing care and have facilitated its technical advancement and specialization. These changes have had considerable impact on emergency medicine. The field of emergency nursing is no exception, and it is important for this nursing discipline to reinforce its identity. To this end, it is necessary to build a sound foundation and to establish an evidence-based approach to emergency nursing. The present study serves as basic research aimed at achieving this goal.
In Chapter 1, the problems associated with emergency nursing are identified, and the need for the present research is stated. In Chapter 2, the results of a 2001 national study investigating the actual state of initial emergency nursing care at emergency medicine departments are presented. In Chapter III, nursing care practices associated with initial emergency nursing care are identified based on the findings of a study conducted in 2002 and 2003. Observations and interviews were conducted at two of the departments that participated in the 2001 national study. Observed nursing care was classified into eight categories and 37 subcategories. The results showed that nursing aspects of initial emergency treatment served to maintain life and function and provide directionality for resolving health problems.
In Chapter IV, the actual state of emergency nursing in America is summarized, and the actual state of education in emergency nursing is reported.
In Chapter V, the results of the three-year research project are summarized, and future issues discussed.
