Summary: This study examined nurses' perceptions of using personal digital assistants as barcode scanners. The results showed that nurses perceived more drawbacks than advantages in using personal digital assistants, mainly due to issues such as nonworking barcodes and additional scanning, leading to delays in nursing workflow. Therefore, improving barcode scanning availability, redesigning prescription processes, and ensuring seamless integration between personal digital assistants and electronic medical records should be considered.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between occupational cognitive failures (OCF) and job content (JC) among nurses in the ICU of Ardabil hospitals in 2020. The findings suggest that OCF is significantly associated with work records in the ICU, skill discretion, decision authority, and other aspects of job content. The study highlights the importance of improving job ability, creating a diverse work environment, providing decision-making authority and freedom, and ensuring job security to reduce cognitive failures among nurses.
