Background: The scientific literature highlights the presence of a gap between what is taught during basic training programs and what is actually practiced by nurses during their work activities. Evidence shows a significant reduction in the techniques applied compared to those learned. Even in contexts where efforts have been made to reduce the number of skills taught to improve their application, the use of assessment techniques remains limited, contradicting the idea that a reduction in the training load could facilitate the employment of learned skills. Objective: The aim of this thesis is to identify the barriers that prevent optimal use of physical assessment and to determine the available resources to properly implement this phase of care. Materials and Methods: A bibliographic search was conducted through the consultation of three databases. A total of 16 studies were included in the writing of this paper as they were relevant to the research objective. Results: The analysis of the articles retrieved identified a total of 9 hindering factors and 6 facilitating factors that can influence the full application of assessment techniques. A critical analysis was then conducted to correlate the results and formulate valid hypotheses to enhance the effectiveness of physical assessment application in nursing practice. Conclusions: The reviewed literature unanimously agrees that physical assessment is a fundamental skill for the nursing profession. In this regard, a reduction in the skills taught would inevitably lead to cultural impoverishment, which could negatively affect the decision-making ability of the professional. In light of the obtained results, it seems reasonable to primarily address the difficulties that hinder optimal use, so that this moment of care becomes an integral part of daily nursing practice.
Background: la letteratura scientifica evidenzia la presenza di una disuguaglianza tra quanto viene insegnato durante i percorsi formativi di base e quanto viene effettivamente messo in pratica dagli infermieri durante l’attività lavorativa. L’evidenza segnala una significativa riduzione delle tecniche applicate rispetto a quelle apprese. Anche in contesti dove si è tentato di diminuire il numero di competenze insegnate per migliorarne l'applicazione, l'utilizzo delle tecniche di accertamento rimane limitato, contraddicendo l'idea che una riduzione del carico formativo possa facilitare l'impiego delle abilità apprese. Obiettivo: lo scopo di questa tesi è quello di individuare quali barriere impediscono un utilizzo ottimale dell’accertamento fisico e quali sono le risorse disponibili per implementare adeguatamente questa fase dell’assistenza. Materiali e metodi: è stata eseguita una ricerca bibliografica attraverso la consultazione di tre banche dati. Per la stesura del seguente elaborato si è deciso di includere un totale di 16 studi poiché aderenti all’obiettivo di ricerca. Risultati: l’analisi degli articoli reperiti ha permesso di individuare un totale di 9 fattori ostacolanti e 6 fattori favorenti in grado di influenzare la completa applicazione delle tecniche di accertamento. Si è poi proceduto con un’analisi critica di quanto ottenuto al fine di correlare tra loro i risultati e ricavare valide ipotesi atte a rendere quanto più efficace l’applicazione dell’accertamento fisico nella pratica infermieristica. Conclusioni: la letteratura recepita è unanimemente concorde nel ritenere l’accertamento fisico una abilità fondamentale per la professione infermieristica. In tal senso, una riduzione delle competenze insegnate si tradurrebbe inevitabilmente in un impoverimento culturale in grado di influire negativamente sulla capacità decisionale del professionista. Alla luce dei risultati ottenuti, risulta ragionevole lavorare primariamente sulle difficoltà che non ne consentono un utilizzo ottimale in modo tale da rendere questo momento dell'assistenza parte integrante della pratica infermieristica quotidiana.

Abstract
Background: The scientific literature highlights the presence of a gap between what is taught during basic training programs and what is actually practiced by nurses during their work activities. Evidence shows a significant reduction in the techniques applied compared to those learned. Even in contexts where efforts have been made to reduce the number of skills taught to improve their application, the use of assessment techniques remains limited, contradicting the idea that a reduction in the training load could facilitate the employment of learned skills. Objective: The aim of this thesis is to identify the barriers that prevent optimal use of physical assessment and to determine the available resources to properly implement this phase of care. Materials and Methods: A bibliographic search was conducted through the consultation of three databases. A total of 16 studies were included in the writing of this paper as they were relevant to the research objective. Results: The analysis of the articles retrieved identified a total of 9 hindering factors and 6 facilitating factors that can influence the full application of assessment techniques. A critical analysis was then conducted to correlate the results and formulate valid hypotheses to enhance the effectiveness of physical assessment application in nursing practice. Conclusions: The reviewed literature unanimously agrees that physical assessment is a fundamental skill for the nursing profession. In this regard, a reduction in the skills taught would inevitably lead to cultural impoverishment, which could negatively affect the decision-making ability of the professional. In light of the obtained results, it seems reasonable to primarily address the difficulties that hinder optimal use, so that this moment of care becomes an integral part of daily nursing practice.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
