Purpose: This study aimed to examine the levels of clinical decision-making ability, role conflict, and nursing work performance ability and to identify factors influencing nursing work performance ability among emergency room nurses. Methods: This study emploved a descriptive correlational research design. A total of 137 emergency room nurses, were participated. Data were collected at three tertiary hospitals located in city B, from June 1 to August 25, 2024. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple regression analysis using IBM SPSS 29.0 program. Results: The average score of clinical decision-making ability was 3.31, while role conflict and nursing work performance ability both had an average score of 3.77. Factors influencing nursing work performance ability included clinical decision-making ability, role conflict, and annual salary, which explained 20.0% of the variance in nursing work performance ability. Conclusion Clinical decision-making ability and role conflict significantly impact nursing work performance among emergency room nurses. Strategies to enhance clinical decision-making skills and mitigate role conflict should be developed at the organizational level. Additionally, further research is needed to on appropriate compensation systems and institutional measures to enhance nursing work performance.

Background: We aimed to investigate the characteristics of pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC) at diagnosis in Korea. Methods: This was a multicenter, registry-based, inception cohort study conducted in Korea between 2021 and 2023. Children and adolescents newly diagnosed with UC < 18 years were included. Baseline clinicodemographics, results from laboratory, endoscopic exams, and Paris classification factors were collected, and associations between factors at diagnosis were investigated. Results: A total 205 patients with UC were included. Male-to-female ratio was 1.59:1, and the median age at diagnosis was 14.7 years (interquartile range 11.9–16.2). Disease extent of E1 comprised 12.2% (25/205), E2 24.9% (51/205), E3 11.2% (23/205), and E4 51.7% (106/205) of the patients. S1 comprised 13.7% (28/205) of the patients. The proportion of patients with a disease severity of S1 was significantly higher in patients with E4 compared to the other groups (E1: 0% vs. E2: 2% vs. E3: 0% vs. E4: 24.5%, P < 0.001). Significant differences between disease extent groups were also observed in Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index (median 25 vs. 35 vs. 40 vs. 45, respectively, P < 0.001), hemoglobin (median 13.5 vs.13.2 vs. 11.6 vs. 11.4 g/dL, respectively, P < 0.001), platelet count (median 301 vs. 324 vs. 372 vs. 377 × 103 /μL, respectively, P = 0.001), C-reactive protein (median 0.05 vs. 0.10 vs. 0.17 vs. 0.38 mg/dL, respectively, P < 0.001), and Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity (median 4 vs. 4 vs. 4 vs. 5, respectively, P = 0.006). No significant differences were observed in factors between groups divided according to sex and diagnosis age. Conclusion This study represents the largest multicenter pediatric inflammatory bowel disease cohort in Korea. Disease severity was associated with disease extent in pediatric patients with UC at diagnosis.
