Implication

Systematic review identifies individual and systemic drivers of safety compliance in nurses, highlighting the necessity of standardized processes and institutional support.

Key Points

To synthesize international empirical literature and identify key factors that influence nurses' adherence to patient safety principles in clinical practice.
Searched electronic databases for English-, Norwegian-, and Finnish-language empirical studies published between 2010 and 2019.
Identified six eligible studies and categorized findings using Vincent's framework across patient, healthcare provider, task, work environment, and organization/management domains.
Studies addressed safety adherence across peripheral venous catheter care, surgical hand rubbing, medication double-checking, inter-ward handovers, cardiac monitoring, and infection control.
Adherence was qualitatively improved by provider knowledge, positive attitudes, nurse collaboration, patient involvement, access to appropriate equipment, ongoing education, and standardized workflows.
