This nursing assignment, NURS20160 Assessment 1, explores the concept of patient-centred care within the context of critical illness, drawing insights from a case study involving a patient with quadruple amputation due to severe sepsis. The assignment utilizes a qualitative research approach to investigate the impact of informed care provided by nursing professionals on patient outcomes. It includes a PEO question, search terms, and database searches (PubMed, Science Direct, Google Scholar) with applied filters. The student analyzes three research articles, evaluating their relevance to the PEO question, study methods, results, limitations, and applicability to the Australian healthcare context. The analysis highlights the importance of effective communication, family involvement, and web-based tools in improving patient care and understanding the barriers within the healthcare sector. The student emphasizes the need for patient and family support in the context of critical illness.
