Background: As science and technology have progressed, human-computer tasks have become more common in intensive care units and nurses must interact frequently with human-computer systems.
Aim: To systematically evaluate ICU nurses' working experience related to human-computer interactions and to provide a reference for the integration of technology into clinical nursing practice.
Study Design: The study design was a meta-synthesis.
Findings: Sixteen qualitative studies were included, and 116 codes were extracted, yielding four analytical themes: (1) A good environment is fundamental in the ICU nurse-computer interaction; (2) technology is a double-edged sword; (3) the adaptation trajectory of ICU nurses in human-computer interaction; (4) the hospital prioritises patient safety and fosters ICU alarm culture.
Conclusions: Nursing managers should attach great importance to ICU nurses' working experience related to human-computer interactions. To optimise these interactions, improve care quality and ensure patient safety, targeted training and psychological interventions should be implemented based on nurses' reported experience.
Relevance to Clinical Practice: Human-computer interaction in the ICU is complex and challenging for nurses. It is essential to explore the experience of ICU nurses and to enhance the efficiency of these interactions.
