Sorbitol is a type of sugar-alcohol that can be naturally found in some fruits. Because it provides fewer calories and sugars compared to regular sweeteners, it is often used in sugar-free or diabetic foods.
Defining and measuring nursing productivity: a concept analysis and pilot study. Aims. The purpose of this article is fourfold. First we report a concept analysis of nursing productivity to show the complexity of the concept and its measurement. We then show how the concept analysis was used to design a method for measuring nursing productivity. Third, we describe how we used this measure in a pilot study of the impact of a differentiated Registered Nurse (RN) practice model on productivity.
Productivity is a measure of economic efficiency which shows how effectively economic inputs are converted into output. Why is productivity measurement important? Advances in productivity, that is the ability to produce more with the same or less input, are a significant source of increased potential national income.
