1. Immersive technology and hand hygiene : scoping reviewDominika Muršec, Sonja Šostar-Turk, Urška Rozman, Mateja Lorber, Nino Fijačko, Dominika Vrbnjak, 2024, pregledni znanstveni članek Opis: Background The use of immersive technology in healthcare education is on the rise, yet its impact on learner engagement, knowledge retention, and specifically in areas like hand hygiene training, remains underexplored. The aim of this scoping review was to summarize the existing studies of immersive technology in hand hygiene training of healthcare providers and health professions students. Methods A scoping review following the Levac et al. framework was conducted. The literature search was performed in databases PubMed, CINAHL Ultimate, ScienceDirect (Elsevier), Web of Science in addition to Google Scholar and ProQuest Dissertation & Theses. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis: Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRIMSA-ScR) guideline was used to report the results. We analysed data using tabular and descriptive summary. Results In the final analysis 11 studies from seven countries were included. Most of the studies (n = 10, 90,91%) used virtual reality in hand hygiene training of healthcare providers and health professions students. Most studies have found that immersive technology is useful in teaching hand hygiene (n = 6, 54,55%). There are some theories and concepts that support the teaching of hand hygiene with immersive technology, but most of the research is not supported by them. Theories or concepts were included in two studies (18,18%). Conclusion Immersive technology, especially virtual reality, enhances hand hygiene learning and engagement compared to traditional methods. However, most studies lack theoretical support. To advance this field, exploring immersive technology for further research and incorporating relevant theories is encouraged. Additionally, conducting a thorough cost-effectiveness analysis and establishing a robust evaluation framework, encompassing both short-term and long-term outcomes, will be beneficial for a comprehensive understanding of the impact of immersive technology in hand hygiene education.

2. Assessing the incorporation of the `Five moments for hand hygiene` into nursing procedure textbooksAdrijana Svenšek, Dominika Muršec, Nino Fijačko, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Aim
Our aim was to conduct a thorough comparison between the hand hygiene information included in international nursing textbooks and the Slovenian nursing textbook's equivalent content as it relates to nursing procedures.
Background
Hand hygiene practices are crucial in preventing healthcare-associated infections, which affect millions of patients annually. The idea behind "Five Moments for Hand Hygiene" is to encourage assessing success and boosting self-efficacy.
Design
Comparison of hand hygiene content in international nursing textbooks with the content in a Slovenian nursing textbook.
Methods
A study was conducted between March 2023 and March 2024 to compare hand hygiene content in international nursing textbooks. The study included textbooks from the USA and UK, as well as Slovenian (SI) textbooks. The final phase involved comparing hand hygiene performance practices against the WHO Five Moments for Hand Hygiene.
Results
The study reviewed 470 nursing procedures across three textbooks, identifying four common ones: female indwelling urinary catheterisation, small-bore feeding tube insertion, enema administration and subcutaneous injections. The USA textbook had the highest number of steps, while the UK textbook had the lowest. Clean protective gloves are not recommended for all nursing procedures, only for small-bore feeding tube insertion and enema administration. The US textbook omitted 12 steps for the female indwelling urinary catheter procedure, while the UK textbook included 10 steps. The SI textbook omitted 8 steps.
Conclusions
Hand hygiene is crucial for healthcare infections prevention and control. The study found differences in the frequency of hand hygiene in these nursing procedures. WHO's Five Moments for Hand Hygiene guidelines are not universally accepted, with inadequate hygiene often observed before patient contact. Future research should review foreign textbooks and update existing ones.

3. Mobile applications for learning hand hygiene : a comparative analysisDominika Muršec, Adrijana Svenšek, Lucija Gosak, Sonja Šostar-Turk, Urška Rozman, Gregor Štiglic, Mateja Lorber, 2024, pregledni znanstveni članek Opis: Infection control is crucial for high-quality patient care. One of the most effective and commonly used infection control procedures is hand hygiene which, it is known, requires repeated refresher training. There are many ways to educate healthcare professionals about hand hygiene, including the use of mobile applications (apps). Our aim is to review such hand hygiene apps, and to identify which have been available since 2021 and to assess their quality. We conducted a review using the PRISMA diagram to document our app selection process in the Google Play Store and Apple store in March 2024. For the evaluation of apps, we used the user version of the Mobile Application Rating Scale questionnaire (uMARS). Of 16 apps only five adhere to WHO hand hygiene guidelines. Timers were included in 12 of the 16 apps and reminders were included in 10 of 16 apps. The highest overall uMARS scoring app was Give Me 5–Hand Hygiene (4.31 ± 0.28), while Wash your hands! (1.17 ± 0.14) had the lowest score. We found that more than half of the apps were unavailable from the 2021 review. We believe that app-based education could effectively sustain hand hygiene knowledge in healthcare settings.

4. Vpliv velikosti porcije na količino zaužite hraneDominika Muršec, 2022, magistrsko delo Opis: Uvod: Velikost porcije je pomembna z vidika ohranjanja telesne mase in zdravega načina prehranjevanja, vendar se le-ta v sodobnem svetu povečuje. S pomočjo pregleda literature smo želeli raziskati vpliv velikosti porcije na količino zaužite hrane pri odraslih.
Metode: Izvedli smo pregled, analizo in sintezo literature v podatkovnih bazah PubMed, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library in Wiley Online Library. Potek iskanja smo prikazali s pomočjo PRISMA diagrama. Analizirane raziskave smo kritično ocenili z ocenjevalnim orodjem Joanna Briggs Institute ter opisno sintetizirali.
Rezultati: V končno analizo smo vključili 11 raziskav ter od tega eno razvrstili v 1. nivo, pet v 2. nivo in pet v 3. nivo hierarhije dokazov. Večina (n = 6, 54,5 %) jih je potrdila, da večja velikost porcije, pakiranja ali krožnika vpliva na večjo količino zaužite hrane. Večje porcije vodijo do višjega energijskega vnosa, kar vpliva na težje vzdrževanje ustrezne telesne mase.
Diskusija in zaključek: Ugotovili smo, da ima velikost porcije vpliv na količino zaužite hrane pri odraslih, vendar vse raziskave tega niso potrdile. Potrebno je nadaljnje raziskovanje tega področja in oblikovanje strategij za zmanjšanje velikosti porcij ter s tem tudi telesne mase posameznika.

5. Faktorji, ki vplivajo na odločitev glede cepljenja proti gripi pri kroničnih bolnikihDominika Muršec, 2020, diplomsko delo Opis: Teoretično izhodišče: Gripa je akutna virusna bolezen, ki se v glavnem pojavlja v zimskih mesecih. Pred njo se je mogoče zaščititi s cepljenjem. Namen zaključnega dela je bil ugotoviti, kateri so faktorji, ki vplivajo na kronične bolnike pri odločitvi glede cepljenja.
Metodologija: Izvedli smo pregled in analizo literature. Literaturo smo iskali v podatkovnih bazah PubMed, CINAHL, Medline, Cochrane Library in COBISS.SI s pomočjo ključnih besed v angleškem in slovenskem jeziku. Potek pregleda literature smo predstavili v PRISMA diagramu. Zbrane podatke smo analizirali in sintetizirali z uporabo vsebinske analize.
Rezultati: V analizo smo vključili 15 člankov. Kot glavni faktor, ki kronične bolnike prepriča v cepljenje, se je izkazal nasvet zdravnika oz. drugih zdravstvenih delavcev. S cepljenjem je bila pozitivno povezana starost, sočasna prisotnost bolezni in predhodne izkušnje s cepljenjem. Pogosti razlogi za necepljenje pa so bila mnenja ljudi, da so zdravi, da gripa ni nevarna bolezen in dvomi v učinkovitost cepiva.
Diskusija in zaključek: Analiza literature je pokazala, da se navkljub prisotni kronični bolezni veliko bolnikov ne cepi proti gripi. Na tem področju bi bilo smiselno izvesti raziskave o vzrokih za necepljenje tudi v slovenskem okolju v okviru referenčnih ambulant, kamor kronični bolniki pogosteje zahajajo. Potreben je poudarek na promociji cepljenja, ozaveščanje o gripi in varnosti cepiv.
