Determinants of Acceptance of COVID-19 Vaccination in Healthcare and Public Health Professionals: A Review

Fathema Ghare et al.

Summary: This review analyzes the sentiments and determinants of healthcare workers' and public health professionals' acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination across different countries. The study finds variations in vaccine acceptance rates, with the highest being in Italy (98.9%) and the lowest in Cyprus (30%). Factors associated with vaccine acceptance include age, gender, profession, education level, comorbidities, and previous influenza vaccination. Factors for low acceptance include perceived side effects, lack of effectiveness, and lack of information. The study also highlights the need for research on public health professionals' sentiments towards vaccination. Interventions, including vaccination campaigns, are necessary to improve COVID-19 vaccine acceptance.

Qualitative Insights into Vaccine Uptake of Nursing Staff in Long-Term Care Facilities in Finland

Anna-Leena Lohiniva et al.

Summary: This study aimed to identify behavioral factors associated with COVID-19 vaccine uptake among unvaccinated nursing staff in long-term care facilities (LTCF) in Finland. Through qualitative in-depth interviews, the study identified several behavioral domains that reduced the staff's intention to get vaccinated, such as lack of trustworthy information sources, incorrect perceptions about vaccine effectiveness, and limited abilities of the management to encourage vaccination. On the other hand, trust in health authorities, vaccination logistics, and professional pride were identified as factors that encouraged vaccine uptake.

How Advanced Practice Nurses Can Be Better Managed in Hospitals: A Multi-Case Study

Jia Wan et al.

Summary: This study aims to explore the management strategy of advanced practice nurses (APNs) in Chinese hospitals. Using the resource orchestration theory as a guide, the study employed a multi-case study method to investigate 18 case hospitals, gathered information from various case data sources, and summarized the management strategies for hospitals' APNs. Four types of APN management strategies - expert customized type, hierarchical linkage type, multidisciplinary benefit type, and professional penetration type - were identified through resource orchestration. Hospitals can utilize the APN management strategy model to effectively manage APNs based on their unique characteristics.

COVID-19 pandemic: preferences and barriers for dissemination of evidence syntheses Survey of intensive care personnel in Germany

Christian Seeber et al.

Summary: The CEOsys project in the context of COVID-19 aims to identify, evaluate, and summarize scientific studies on the disease, providing specific recommendations for clinical practice. Survey results showed that lack of time and accessibility were major barriers, with professionals preferring information from public institutions, medical journals, and email newsletters. Short versions, algorithms, and webinars were favored for dissemination, with trust placed in professional societies and government health institutes for COVID-19 information.

COVID-19 Vaccines: Fear of Side Effects among German Health Care Workers

Christopher Holzmann-Littig et al.

Summary: This study investigated the concerns of healthcare workers (HCWs) regarding the side effects of COVID-19 vaccines and their association with vaccine hesitancy. The results showed that the most feared short-term side effects were vaccination reactions, allergic reactions, and limitations in daily life. The most feared long-term side effects were (auto-) immune reactions, neurological side effects, and currently unknown long-term consequences. Concerns about serious side effects were associated with vaccine refusal, and there was a clear association between vaccine refusal in one's personal environment and fear of side effects.

Organizational Justice and Health: A Survey in Hospital Workers

Nicola Magnavita et al.

Summary: The study found that work organization plays a significant role in influencing occupational stress, mental health, and absenteeism among hospital healthcare workers. Organizational justice is a strong predictor of occupational stress, with stress mediating the relationship between justice and mental health. Physicians perceived less distributive justice compared to other workers, and this perception was associated with absenteeism rates.

Burnout in Intensive Care Nurses during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Scoping Review on Its Prevalence and Risk and Protective Factors

Ferdinando Toscano et al.

Summary: This study explored the prevalence of burnout symptoms among ICU nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic and identified individual, organizational, and contextual risk and protective factors. The results showed high levels of burnout symptoms among ICU nurses, including emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. Increased workload, lack of equipment, social stigma, and fear of contagion were identified as key risk factors. Social support from leaders and colleagues, professional recognition, use of personal protective tools, and witnessing patients' successful recovery were major protective factors.

COVID-19 Intensive Care-Evaluation of Public Information Sources and Current Standards of Care in German Intensive Care Units: A Cross Sectional Online Survey on Intensive Care Staff in Germany

Anne Werner et al.

Summary: This study aims to reevaluate the dissemination pathways and strategies for ICU staff in the standard care for COVID-19 patients. The results showed differences in the number, selection, and quality assessment of information sources about COVID-19 among different professional groups. Physicians preferred active information search sources, while nurses predominantly used passive consumable sources. Despite these differences, the sources were rated similarly in terms of the quality of the information on COVID-19.
