An integrative review of potassium replacement protocol use in critical care : Development, use and critical care nurse autonomy
Crown Copyright © 2023. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved..
BACKGROUND: Potassium replacement protocols are used to standardise practice, reduce risk, and ensure timely potassium replacement, but there is considerable variability in their development and use, particularly as part of critical care nursing practice.
AIM: To synthesise the research evidence on how potassium replacement protocols are used in adult critical care; and how critical care nurses' role and practice is influenced by a potassium replacement protocol. The research question was 'How are protocols used by intensive care clinicians to guide potassium replacement in adult critical care?'.
DESIGN: A structured integrative review was undertaken. A combination of keywords, synonyms, and Medical Subject Headings were used across the Ovid Medline and Embase databases. Records were independently assessed against inclusion and exclusion criteria. All papers were assessed for quality. A narrative synthesis was used to analyse and present the findings.
RESULTS: Ten studies were included in this review from 4076 records identified. Narrative synthesis revealed five categories: (i) protocol design demonstrating variation in protocol mechanisms, (ii) protocol rationale eliciting reasonings for protocol implementation, (iii) protocol use describing how protocols were nurse-driven enabling nursing autonomy (iv) protocol adherence highlighting variability in protocol compliance and (v) critical care nurse acceptability and feasibility coupling greater shared responsibility for patient care and improved clinician satisfaction.
CONCLUSION: Safe, high-quality care, supported by evidence continues to be a priority. Protocolised potassium replacement can improve patient outcomes and promote nurses' autonomy, efficiency, and job satisfaction.
IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE: Recognising and promoting critical care nurses' expert assessment skills and clinical decision-making is essential for optimising efficient, safe, and high-quality patient care. Although protocol deviations are accommodated in protocol development, comprehensive documentation to justify protocol deviations is key to justifying practice. Understanding protocol deviations are crucial to inform future protocol development, improvements, and evaluation to further enhance critical care nursing practice.
