The aim of this thesis is to study how the use of technology in nursing care affects the relationship between the nurse and the patient. The study also aimed to investigate how ethical principles can be maintained as a nurse when technology is part of the nursing process.
The research was done by using a systematic literature review. Seventeen scientific peer-reviewed articles conducted from different databases. The databases used were EBSCO, CINAHL, Google Scholar, and PubMed. These articles were published ranging from 2008-2023 by researchers around the globe. The insights and information derived from these articles underwent a comprehensive examination to assess both the utilization of integrated technologies in nursing care and their potential impact on the nurse-patient relationship.
As a result, it was found that technology has its benefits and disadvantages. To ensure that the patient-nurse relationship is maintained, nurses must acquire technological competencies. In conclusion, technology has made a significant impression in the health care sector and nursing. Nurses must maintain the code of ethics and have a humanistic approach to caring for people. In the future, it is recommended to continue researching the implementation of technology in nursing care and what it entails for the people receiving care.
