Abstract
Background: The emergence of big data holds the promise of aiding healthcare providers by identifying patterns and converting vast quantities of data into actionable insights facilitating the provision of precision medicine and decision-making. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing use of big data within healthcare services to facilitate their use. Method: A systematic review was conducted in February 2024, adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Database searches for articles published between 01 January 2020 and 18 February 2024 and included PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest and Cochrane Library. The Authority, Accuracy, Coverage, Objectivity, Date, Significance ( AACODS) checklist was used to evaluate the quality of the included articles. Subsequently, a thematic analysis was conducted on the findings of the review, using the Boyatzis approach. Results: A final selection of 46 studies were included in this systematic review. A significant proportion of these studies demonstrated acceptable quality, and the level of bias was deemed satisfactory. Thematic analysis identified seven major themes that influenced the use of big data in healthcare services. These themes were grouped into four primary categories: performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions. Factors associated with "effort expectancy" were the most highly cited in the included studies (67%), while those related to "social influence" received the fewest citations (15%). Conclusion: This study underscored the critical role of "effort expectancy" factors, particularly those under the theme of "data complexity and management," in the process of using big data in healthcare services. Implications: Results of this study provide groundwork for future research to explore facilitators and barriers to using big data in health care, particularly in relation to data complexity and the efficient and effective management of big data, with significant implications for healthcare administrators and policymakers.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic led to unprecedented challenges to healthcare quality in the emergency department, including directly impacting quality metrics and worsening barriers to the quality improvement process such as burnout, staff turnover, and boarding. We aimed to develop a blueprint for postpandemic quality improvement to address these specific barriers, focused on prioritizing frontline staff engagement from idea generation to implementation and assessment. Drawing from teamwork literature, we constructed a process that emphasized egalitarian conversations, psychological safety, and creating an environment where staff could feel heard at every step of the process. We applied this blueprint to improving rates of patients who leave without being seen and achieved a four percentage point reduction (9% vs. 5%, p < 0.001), with high rates of staff satisfaction with the process. We conclude that while postpandemic quality improvement presents significant challenges, we can rise to meet those challenges by adapting existing quality improvement processes to increase frontline staff engagement.

Abstract
With Chapman's Radical Loving Care as a framework, this article shares practical wisdom and habits that occur daily in a busy community hospital to help all nurse leaders to develop a holistic view to shape their vision and embed radical loving care in their connections. The application of Chapman's concepts to the mentoring of others is viewed as a form of love and helps to strengthen not only the mentee, but the entire system of nurses caring for each other. Radical loving care is seen as a far reaching, progressive and humanistic strategy to show a deep, abiding kindness and caring to other human beings in the world of health care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Employee disengagement in healthcare and business is currently at unexceptionally high levels worldwide. Disengagement negatively impacts productivity, profitability, efficiency (waste reduction), innovation, quality, customer satisfaction and experience, staff well-being, safety, mortality, staff attendance, and turnover. Despite its serious detrimental impacts, no dedicated competency-based training curriculum exists for engagement as a competency. OBJECTIVE To develop a competency-based educational curriculum for an Engagement Competency. METHODS A curricular roadmap comprising the following steps was observed 1. Identifying the desired outcomes needed of trainees. These must help fulfill all the Q12 Gallup survey engagement items. 2. Explicitly defining the required Competencies, Entrustable Professional Activities, and Milestones, 3. Selecting the educational activities, and instructional methods, 4. Selecting the tools to assess progress along the milestones, and finally, 5. Designing an evaluation system to assess the outcomes of the engagement competency program. RESULTS We developed an Engagement Competency Framework with 7 Entrustable Professional activities "rationally and practically" arranged. These are: Envision E1, Embrace E2, Empower E3, Enlighten E4, Empathize E5, Energize E6, and Evaluate E7 (the 7Es). CONCLUSION The unfortunate global issue of disengagement in healthcare and in the business arena may be practically tackled by introducing Engagement Competency and training. It should be compulsory for all in the "leadership role". Such training may lead to remarkable performance improvement and a happier, more prosperous, and safer world.

Front Psychol 2022; 13:962830. [PMID: 36300078 PMCID: PMC9589064 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.962830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 09/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Studies conducted in the health sector have determined a positive relationship between job satisfaction and work engagement. However, this paper reveals that this relationship turns into a negative or non-significant relationship during the COVID-19 pandemic. We explore the reasons for inconsistency in research findings in this critical period through a meta-analysis. Methods This study was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines and PICO framework. Online databases including Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and additional records from other databases were searched without any time limitation, and all studies published in English that reported the correlation between work engagement and job satisfaction were included in the analysis. In total, 36 individual correlation coefficients were synthesized. R statistical language was used to analyze the data. Result A total of 36 studies with a sample size of 16,087 were synthesized. The overall effect size was found as r = 0.57 (95% CI [0.50-0.64]). While the moderating effect of national culture was not statistically significant, presence of COVID-19 as the significant moderator explained 37.08% of effect size heterogeneity. Such that the presence of COVID-19 has transformed the positive relationship between work engagement and job satisfaction into a negative but statistically non-significant relationship. Conclusion This study empirically challenges the existing assumptions about the positive link between work engagement and job satisfaction. The results of the research can be a guide for managers and policymakers. Specifically, based on these results, different mechanisms can be put in place to support work engagement and, in turn, job satisfaction in the COVID-19 process.
