The purposes of this project were to identify innovations conceived from nurse faculty at a college of nursing and nurses in an academic medical center, examine their characteristics, and create a typology of nursing innovations.
Innovation is a crucial component for progress in healthcare. Jobs to Be Done Theory suggests that to make progress in nursing, workers must be solution focused to answer problems.
This qualitative study used directed content analysis to evaluate survey responses of nurses in 1 university's academic and practice setting about solutions or innovations to achieve progress in their jobs.
Fifty-seven examples of situations needing an innovative solution were coded and categorized by challenges to yield an 8 characteristic typology in nursing innovation.
These findings serve as a guide for nurse executives to understand and leverage how innovations are conceptualized and translated in academia and practice.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 August 2019.
All research outputs
#4,170,234
of 34,377,743 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Nursing Administration
#162
of 2,116 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#62,405
of 396,152 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Nursing Administration
#8
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,377,743 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,116 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.5. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 396,152 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% of its contemporaries.
