High-Tech Augmentative and Alternative Communication in a Burn Patient With Voicelessness: A Case Study Silvia Porcarelli, Monica Codara, Diletta Fabrizi, Michela Luciani, Davide Ausili Nursing in Critical Care, 2026 Loss of speech due to mechanical ventilation is common among patients admitted to intensive care. This condition, often referred to as voicelessness, can generate negative emotions such as frustration and anger. Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) techniques are useful for facilitating communication, but their use can be complex in patients with extensive burns. This case study describes the use of a high‐tech AAC system based on a motion sensor in an adolescent with second‐ and third‐degree burns covering 60% of the total body surface area, requiring both invasive and non‐invasive mechanical ventilation. Due to injuries to their hands and neuromuscular weakness, the patient was unable to use conventional low‐ or high‐tech AAC devices. The use of the motion‐sensor‐based AAC system enabled the patient to communicate specific needs and formulate complex sentences, facilitating individualised nursing care. The patient and family reported high satisfaction with the quality of care, while nurses noted a positive impact on the care relationship without increasing their workload. This case highlights the importance of personalised communication strategies in critically ill burn patients and suggests that the adoption of appropriate AAC systems may reduce missed nursing care and improve emotional and care outcomes.
Dyadic Patterns of Patient and Caregiver Engagement in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Care: A Multicenter Observational Study Diletta Fabrizi, Paola Rebora, Maria Grazia Valsecchi, Stefania Di Mauro, Michela Luciani, Davide Ausili Journal of Clinical Nursing, 2026 Aim To identify patterns of dyadic engagement in type 2 diabetes care, describe their characteristics, and explore their association with glycated haemoglobin. Background In chronic conditions, patient self‐care and caregiver contribution should be considered a dyadic phenomenon. However, patterns of dyadic engagement in type 2 diabetes care have not yet been identified. Design Multicentre observational cross‐sectional study. Methods Patient self‐care and caregiver contribution were assessed using the Self‐Care of Diabetes Inventory and the Caregiver Contribution to Self‐Care of Diabetes Inventory. Patterns of dyadic engagement in type 2 diabetes care were identified by latent class analysis. Associations between patient‐caregiver characteristics and class membership were estimated using multinomial regression. The association between classes and glycated haemoglobin levels was assessed using linear regression. Results 251 dyads of patients with type 2 diabetes and their primary informal caregivers were enrolled. Patients were mostly male (55%, median age 72) and caregivers mostly female (71%, median age 64). Three patterns of dyadic engagement were identified: ‘equally engaged‐low care’ (14%), ‘mostly patient engaged‐middling care’ (25%), and ‘equally engaged‐high care’ (61%). Patient characteristics (sex, education, self‐efficacy) and caregiver characteristics (burden, chronic diseases) were associated with pattern membership. Membership in the ‘mostly patient engaged‐middling care’ and ‘equally engaged‐high care’ patterns was associated with decreased glycated haemoglobin compared to ‘equally engaged‐low care’. Conclusion The three identified patterns of dyadic engagement in type 2 diabetes showed differences in patient and caregiver characteristics and were associated with glycated haemoglobin. Impact The study identified and described patterns of dyadic engagement in type 2 diabetes care. The three identified patterns showed differences in characteristics and in patient glycemic control. Healthcare professionals should consider these patterns for tailoring interventions focused on both dyad members. Reporting Method STROBE checklist was followed. Patient Contribution Patients and their informal caregivers were recruited to participate in the study.
Virtual reality in undergraduate and postgraduate nursing education:A scoping review integrating data mining for topic discovery Silvia Ronchi, Rosario Caruso, Diletta Fabrizi, Michela Luciani, Celeste M. Alfes, Noriyo Colley, Arianna Magon, Gianluca Conte, Anna Valli, Stefano Terzoni, Silvia Cilluffo, Maura Lusignani, Davide Ausili Teaching and Learning in Nursing, 2026 • VR use in nursing education expanded rapidly after 2020. • Shift from procedural skills to holistic, learner-centered training. • Most studies from high-income and Asian contexts show global imbalance. • Immersive HMD-based VR dominates, with emerging hybrid XR systems. • Field needs standardized outcomes and theory-driven integration. To map and critically analyze the evolution, scope, and characteristics of virtual reality (VR) applications in undergraduate and postgraduate nursing education. Scoping review, reported following PRISMA-ScR guidelines. PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, and Embase were systematically searched up to April 2025, complemented by Google Scholar and reference screening. Eligible records were screened independently by two reviewers. Data were extracted across study characteristics, educational contexts, technologies, and outcomes. Narrative synthesis was combined with lexicometric and topic-modeling analyses to identify thematic and temporal trends. A total of 169 studies (2010–2025) were included. Publications increased sharply after 2020, shifting from procedural training toward learner-centered and competence-based education. Immersive VR via head-mounted displays was the most prevalent (70.4%), spanning from cardiopulmonary resuscitation to soft skills. Meta-analysis overlap was low, indicating methodological heterogeneity. Six major themes were identified, reflecting a transition toward holistic, reflective, and experiential learning frameworks. VR in nursing education has matured conceptually but remains fragmented. Standardized outcomes, theory-driven frameworks, and equitable global adoption are needed to maximize its pedagogical potential.
Exploring the Associations Between Empowering Leadership, Work Environment and Moral Injury Among Nurses: A Cross-Sectional Study Stefano Ardenghi, Selena Russo, Rossana De Palma, Michela Luciani, Giulia Rampoldi, Diletta Fabrizi, Davide Ausili, Marco Bani, Stefania Di Mauro, Maria Grazia Strepparava Nursing Leadership, 2026 Background: Leadership is vital for fostering work environments that support nurses' well-being, job satisfaction and high-quality patient care. This study examined the role of empowering leadership in shaping nurses' perceptions of a healthy work environment (HWE) and moral injury. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used with a convenience sample of nurses from an Italian public healthcare organization. Data were collected through an online survey, incorporating the Empowering Leadership Questionnaire (ELQ), the N2N-HWE and the Moral Injury Events Scale (MIES). Pearson's correlations and a multivariable linear regression model analyzed the relationship between ELQ, N2N-HWE and MIES. Results: Of the 155 nurses who participated (78.1% females, mean age = 34.06 ± 10.03 years), 92.9% perceived their work environment as unhealthy, and 31.6% reported high levels of moral injury. No direct association was found between HWE and moral injury (β = 0.03; 95% CI: -0.46, 0.53). However, a statistically significant interaction between HWE and empowering leadership on moral injury was observed (β = -0.08; 95% CI: -0.16, 0.002). Conclusions: Empowering leadership may buffer the negative impact of unhealthy work environments on nurses' moral injury, highlighting its protective role and the need for leadership-focused interventions in high-demand healthcare settings.
Determinants and Motivations of Vaccination Hesitancy and Uptake in Nurses: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Giulia Locatelli, Michela Luciani, Diletta Fabrizi, Beatrice Albanesi, Alessio Conti, Marco Clari, Erika Renzi, Azzurra Massimi, Davide Ausili Journal of Clinical Nursing, 2025 AimVaccinations are essential to ensure protection for healthcare professionals, patients and communities. However, vaccination hesitancy has been reported among healthcare professionals. Nurses are the main, first and direct point of contact for patients and citizens in most healthcare services, but only a minority of studies investigated vaccination hesitancy and uptake specifically in this population. Thus, this study aimed to explore the determinants and motivations of vaccination hesitancy and uptake among nurses.DesignSystematic review with a narrative synthesis approach.MethodsWe included primary research exploring determinants or motivations of vaccination hesitancy or uptake among nurses. No time or geographical limit was applied. Generalised random‐effects linear models with a logit link were used to calculate the pooled estimated proportions for vaccine uptake among nurses.Data SourcesWe explored nine databases (2023).ResultsThe initial search identified 3452 records; 42 records were eventually included in this review. Older age, longer professional experience, lack of confidence in vaccine safety and effectiveness and cost associated with the vaccine were among the most common determinants of vaccine hesitancy. Safety concerns, complacency (e.g., beliefs of not needing the vaccine), and accessibility (e.g., logistics) were among the most common motivations for being vaccine hesitant. Having strong confidence in the vaccine, a high sense of collective responsibility, previous vaccination uptake/positive intentions towards future vaccination, weaker vaccine complacency, and older age were among the most common determinants of vaccine uptake. Willingness to protect themselves and/or others, contribute to the herd immunity, and comply with recommendations were among the most common motivations for vaccine uptake. The pooled prevalence of influenza vaccine uptake among nurses was 44% (95% CI: 35–73).ConclusionThe findings of this systematic review with meta‐analysis could guide the identification of strategies to reduce barriers and further improve facilitators to eventually increase vaccine uptake in nurses.Implications for the Profession and/or Patient CareThis study contributes to further understanding nurses' beliefs, barriers, and facilitators towards vaccination. By doing so, these results could guide the identification of strategies to reduce barriers and further improve facilitators to eventually increase vaccine uptake in nurses.Reporting MethodWe have adhered to relevant EQUATOR guidelines, in particular to the PRISMA checklist.Patient or Public ContributionNo patient or public contribution.Trial RegistrationPROSPERO number: CRD42020212252
Self-Care of Older Patients Affected by at Least Two Chronic Conditions Between Heart Failure, Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Comparative Study Giulia Andrea Baldan, Maddalena De Maria, Michela Luciani, Maria Matarese, Ercole Vellone, Davide Ausili Journal of Clinical Nursing, 2025 AimsThis study aims to describe disease‐specific self‐care behaviours in patients with heart failure (HF), diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in various combinations; to compare these self‐care behaviours within patient groups; and to evaluate differences across these groups.DesignCross‐sectional study.MethodsA total sample of 1079 older patients was recruited from outpatient clinics and home settings. Eligible patients were aged ≥ 65 years and had a diagnosis of HF and/or DM, and/or COPD, along with at least one additional chronic condition. Data were collected using validated tools: the Self‐Care of Heart Failure Index, Self‐Care of Diabetes Inventory and Self‐Care of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Inventory. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse disease‐specific self‐care behaviours. Group comparisons were performed using Student's t‐test and univariate, followed by multivariate analyses of variance.ResultsThe analysis focused on a subset of 223 patients who had a combination of at least two chronic conditions between HF, DM and/or COPD. The mean age of participants was 77.3 (SD 7.5) years, with a majority being female (53.4%). Self‐care maintenance, monitoring and management for HF and COPD were found to be inadequate across all patient groups. Adequate self‐care was only observed in DM management among those with HF and DM and in DM maintenance for those with DM and COPD treated with insulin. Significant differences in all self‐care dimensions were observed across groups, particularly in patients managing all three conditions (HF, DM and COPD).ConclusionsThe findings provide valuable insights into the complexities of self‐care in patients with multiple chronic conditions, underscoring the need for tailored, integrated and patient‐centred interventions. Healthcare strategies should focus on enhancing patient education and developing personalised approaches to improve health outcomes and quality of life in this population.Reporting MethodAll the authors have adhered to the EQUATOR guidelines STROBE Statement.Patient or Public ContributionA convenience sample of patients was recruited in outpatient clinics and their homes. Data were collected between March 2017 and August 2022, by face‐to‐face during routine outpatient visits or directly at the patient's home.
Development and Psychometric Testing of the Caregiver Contribution to Self-Care of Diabetes Inventory: An Observational Study Among Informal Caregivers of Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Diletta Fabrizi, Maddalena De Maria, Claudio Barbaranelli, Marta Aber Rizzo, Stefania Di Mauro, Annalisa Giancaterini, Paola Rebora, Davide Ausili, Michela Luciani Science of Diabetes Self Management and Care, 2025 Purpose The purpose of the study was to develop and psychometrically test the Caregiver Contribution to Self-Care of Diabetes Inventory (CC-SCODI), a new tool for assessing caregiver contribution to self-care in diabetes, among informal caregivers of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A multicenter cross-sectional observational study was conducted. A total of 251 patients with T2DM and their informal caregivers were included. The CC-SCODI measures the caregiver contribution to patients’ self-care maintenance, self-care monitoring, and self-care management. It also assesses the caregiver self-efficacy in contributing to patient self-care. To evaluate dimensionality, a confirmative factor analysis was conducted. To evaluate reliability, the multidimensional model-based reliability index was estimated. To assess construct validity, associations between caregiver contribution to self-care maintenance, monitoring, and management and caregiver self-efficacy, caregiver burden, and dyadic care type were tested. Results A multidimensional structure emerged for caregiver contribution to self-care maintenance and monitoring scales, and a unidimensional structure emerged for caregiver contribution to self-care management and caregiver self-efficacy scales. All the reliability indices were higher than 0.70. Significant associations were found between caregiver contribution to self-care maintenance, monitoring, and management and caregiver self-efficacy, caregiver burden, and dyadic care type. Conclusions The CC-SCODI is suggested to be valid and reliable for assessing caregiver contribution to self-care in caregivers of patients with T2DM.
Virtual reality in undergraduate and postgraduate nursing education: a scoping review protocol integrating data mining for topic discovery Silvia Ronchi, Rosario Caruso, Diletta Fabrizi, Michela Luciani, Celeste M. Alfes, Noriyo Colley, Arianna Magon, Gianluca Conte, Anna Valli, Stefano Terzoni, Silvia Cilluffo, Maura Lusignani, Davide Ausili Methodsx, 2025 Virtual Reality (VR) encompasses a range of computer-based technologies that simulate complex scenarios, offering immersive, experiential learning in a controlled virtual environment. In nursing education, VR has the potential to enhance both technical and non-technical competencies. However, the existing literature on VR in nursing education is fragmented, making it challenging to fully grasp its scope, applications, and emerging trends. This scoping review protocol outlines a systematic approach to mapping the existing literature on the use of VR in undergraduate and postgraduate nursing education. Following Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines and the PRISMA-ScR 2020 framework, the review will include studies published in English, Spanish, or Italian, as well as those with an accessible HTML version to enable accurate automated translation and eligibility assessment. A comprehensive search will be conducted across PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and EMBASE, with no time restrictions. Two independent reviewers will assess study eligibility and extract data using a standardized form. Additionally, data mining techniques, including Latent Dirichlet Allocation enhanced by Bayesian optimization, will be employed to identify trends and emerging topics in the field, providing valuable insights for educators, researchers, and policymakers.•This scoping review protocol outlines the methodology for systematically mapping the existing literature on VR in nursing education, providing a comprehensive overview of its applications at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.•Advanced data mining techniques will be applied to uncover emerging trends and key topics, enhancing the understanding of VR's evolving role in nursing education.•Findings will offer methodological and practical insights, supporting educators, researchers, and policymakers in optimizing and expanding VR-based learning strategies in nursing.
