Abstract

<p>To clarify trends in research on emergency nursing and identify its future challenges in Japan, a literature review was conducted.</p><p>Original articles, case studies, and general reports published within the 10-year period from 2009 were searched for, and 523 papers were identified and analyzed. In comparison with a study by Yamase et al., they were classified into the themes used by Yamase et al.:[explanations of pathological conditions and care procedures], [emergency nursing education], [specialty of emergency nursing], [emergency nursing care], [others], and newly added [nursing management]. The number of papers examining [explanations of pathological conditions and care procedures] had decreased, whereas that discussing [emergency nursing care] had increased. When focusing on study contents, there had been a rapid increase in the number of papers on flight nurses and triage. According to these papers, it may be necessary to establish education systems, including those to provide continuing education, and offer more effective psychological support for flight nurses in several facilities or on a nationwide basis. Triage requires improving triage skills and establishing systems to examine triage assessments after the fact, feed the results of such examination back, and regularly hold seminars, such as simulation-based learning workshops. In family support, the importance of end-of-life care education for nurses was highlighted. </p>
