Technological innovations make significant impacts on nursing education. New teaching strategies are constantly emerging, offering students a dynamic and interactive educational experience. The Question-Embedded Movie Clips Learning program used in the current study was developed based on the drill and practice learning principle, aiming to facilitate nursing student’s skills and build their confidence before entering real clinical settings.

Burnout among healthcare workers affects their well-being and decision making, influencing patient and public health outcomes. Healthcare workers’ health beliefs and COVID-19 vaccine decisions may affect risks of burnout. Therefore, understanding the interplay between these crucial factors is essential for identifying at-risk staff, providing targeted support, and addressing workplace challenges to prevent further escalation of burnout related issues.

Professionals across caring disciplines have played a significant role in the development of virtual care, which utilizes remote technologies to offer support and services from a distance. As virtual care becomes increasingly essential, instructors must ensure students are equipped with both interpersonal abilities and digital competencies, merging traditional hands-on methods with online learning. Despite its growing importance, there are a lack of comprehensive frameworks to guide the design and delivery of online learning experiences that foster the development of virtual caring skills and competencies among students in caring professions.

Gamification has emerged as an innovative pedagogical strategy in the educational field, transferring game tools to the teaching-learning process to improve students' motivation and engagement.

Midwifery students often experience anxiety due to several factors such as the clinical experiences faced. Simulation-based learning in nursing and midwifery studies using extended reality (XR) tools offers the opportunity to manage better educational processes while reducing this anxiety.

Diabetes has become a significant global health issue, particularly imposing a deep economic burden on developing countries. Innovative and integrated digital solutions can reduce the impact of diabetes and enhance the quality of care. However, digital solutions have not been utilized before in Myanmar.

Background: Unplanned Extubation(UEX) is a critical indicator of nursing quality.Existing research primarily focuses on pediatric intensive care units (PICUs),with limited data from general pediatric surgery.Currently, research on this project is mainly focused on pediatric intensive care units, and there is a lack of general surgical research data. Therefore, project research should be conducted based on this characteristic.

The growing use of social media has created concerns about addiction, and thus, it is necessary to explore how personality traits and Fear of Missing Out (FOM) can be utilized to predict Social Media Addiction (SMA).

Post-COVID-19 patients continue to experience lingering physical and psychological symptoms, requiring coordinated and continuous care. Addressing these needs is essential, especially in resource-limited settings.

Each year nursing informatics researchers contribute to nursing and health informatics knowledge. 2024 has emerged as yet another year of significant advances. In this editorial I describe and highlight some of the key trends in nursing informatics research as published in JMIR Nursing in 2024. Artificial intelligence (AI), data science, mHealth, and integrating technology into nursing education and practice remain key research themes in the literature. Nursing informatics publications continue to grow in number. A greater number of AI and data science articles are being published while at the same time mHealth and technology research continues to be conducted in nursing education and practice contexts.

Older adults manage multiple impacts on health, including chronic conditions and adverse external events. Smart homes are positioned to have a positive impact on older adults’ health by allowing (1) new understandings of behavior change so risks associated with external events can be assessed, (2) quantifying of impact of social determinates on health, and (3) designing interventions that respond appropriately to detected behavior changes. Information derived from smart home sensors can provide objective data about behavior changes to support a learning healthcare system. In this paper, we introduce a smart home capable of detecting behavior changes that occur during adverse external events like pandemics and wildfires.

Nurses are one of the largest users within the electronic health record (EHR) system, relying on its tools to support patient care and nursing workflow. Recent studies suggested the redesign of nursing documentation may reduce time in the EHR system and improve nurse satisfaction.
