What is RN4CAST?  RN4CAST, funded by the European Commission, was designed to provide scientific evidence for decision makers in Europe about how to get the best value for nursing workforce investments, and to guide workforce planning to produce a nurse workforce for the future that would meet population health needs.

Lancet 2014

Background  Hopsitals are target for spending reductions.  Nursing is a so-called soft target because savings can be made quickly by reduction of nurse staffing whereas savings through improved efficiency are difficult to achieve.  Research that could potentially guide policies and practices on safe nurse staffing in Europe has been scarce.

Aim  To assess whether differences in patient-to-nurse workloads and nurses´educational qualifications in nine of the 12 RN4CAST countries with similar patient discharge data are associated with variation in hospital mortality after common surgical procedures.

Methods  Discharge data from patients aged 50 or older who underwent common surgeries in 300 hospitals in nine European countries.  Surveys of nurses to measure nurse staffing and nurse education.

Settings

Nurse staffing and nurse education

Results  An increase in a nurses´ workload by one patient increased the likelihood of an inpatient daying within 30 days of admission by 7 %.  Every 10% increase in bachelor´s degree nurses was associated with a decrease in this likelihood by 7%.

The results imply that  Patients in hospitals in which 60% of nurses had bachelor´s degrees and nurses cared for an average if six patients would have almost 30% lower mortality than patients in hospitals in which only 30% of nurses had bachelor´s degrees and nurses cared for an average of eight patients.

Interpretation  Nurse staffing cuts to save money might adversely affect outcomes. An increased emphasis on bachelor´s education for nurses could reduce preventable hospital deaths.

Comment from authors  Additional research in Europe is needed to establish whether our multicountry findings can be replicated for high mortality surgeries and for medical patients; and whether in Europe, like in USA, nursing is related to a range of adverse outcomes that contributes to high costs.
