Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A CLEARLY DEFINED ROLE for the perioperative clinical nurse specialist (CNS) has not been identified or established. USING ROLE THEORY as a framework, a systematic review of the literature was conducted to provide recommendations for a delineated CNS role and to compare this role with other nursing roles. SEVERAL FACTORS CONTRIBUTE to CNS role confusion, including the versatility of the position, lack of certification examinations, and variance of state recognition. FUTURE RESEARCH should investigate merging of CNS and nurse practitioner titles, perioperative CNS functions, spheres of influence, and patient outcomes. |
