790         <p>New research by Auckland University has found addressing
791nurse shortages in post-operative care may save 182 lives a
792year because short-staffed wards have higher rates of
793potentially preventable deaths and complications after their
794surgeries.</p><p>The newly published research
795(https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ans.70903)
796analysed 202,428 patients undergoing 223,415 operations
797against Te Whatu Ora nursing staffing data between 2022 and
7982024 with a focus three specific outcomes after 90 days;
799postoperative mortality (death), complications and "failure
800to rescue". Failure to rescue is a medical term for a
801patient who dies after developing a complication which may
802be treatable.</p><p>Co-author and Auckland University
803Professor of Surgery Ian Bissett says international
804academics have been researching "failure to rescue" events
805for more than a decade. "What’s unique about this research
806is that it uses New Zealand data linking three years of
807individual surgical patient outcomes with the nursing staff
808ratios for each specific shift that the patients were in
809hospital."</p><p>"The complication rate was 18%, failure to
810rescue occurred in 15% of these, resulting in a 90-day
811mortality rate of 2.8%. The study showed that about 45% of
812the shifts over this period were short staffed to some
813extent with 28% meeting the predefined criteria for a shift
814below target," he says.</p><p>"Understaffing of the shifts
815was directly associated with a higher complication rate,
816higher failure to rescue rates and deaths. Each one-nurse
817reduction in nurse staffing per shift was associated with a
8187% increase in complications, 7% increase in failure to
819rescue and a 13% increase in mortality," Prof Bissett
820says.</p>

844<p>"Modelling projected that correcting observed
845staffing shortfalls on surgical wards would be associated
846with 182 fewer post-operative deaths a year. This is
847estimated to require 166 extra nurses annually.</p><p>"This
848research finds a solution at a service level for a
849relatively low investment. It shows having enough nurses on
850the ward so there is no ‘negative variance’ - or
851staffing below recommended levels - could have a major
852impact on post-surgical outcomes."</p><p>Prof Bissett says
853nurse short staffing on the post-surgical wards for the
854two-year period of the study was 227,570 hours, or a
855shortfall of 141.3 full-time nurses across the county.
856"Modelling projected that correcting observed staffing
857shortfalls on surgical wards would result in 182.2 fewer
858post-operative deaths a year."</p><p>NZNO Perioperative
859Nurses College chair Lucy Middleton says the findings reveal
860the human cost of staffing levels being set to meet
861arbitrary cost-cutting budgets rather than patient need, and
862the impact of Te Whatu Ora’s recent recruitment
863freeze.</p><p>"Nurses are at the bedside when patients come
864out of surgery. We raise the alarm if our patients’
865condition is deteriorating. But to do this well, we need to
866be fully staffed so we can monitor vital signs and
867immediately escalate any concerns.</p><p>"The first few
868hours and days after surgery are the most important time to
869closely watch patients. We need to get around to all our
870patients in a timely way to give them the care and
871observation they need to ensure they aren’t suffering
872complications which can escalate quickly after
873surgery.</p><p>"NZNO implores Te Whatu Ora to properly staff
874our post-operative wards to levels identified through safe
875staffing tools as this research shows it protects our
876patients from complications and even death," Lucy Middleton
877says.</p><!-- LINKS REMOVED
