How do nurses manage their work under time pressure? Occurrence of implicit rationing of nursing care in the intensive care unit: A qualitative study

Under the influence of various factors, including continuous or intermittent time pressure, nurses employ strategies to deal with the pressure. Sometimes, these strategies allow them to complete all their necessary work. However, with the increase in time pressure, sometimes some work that must be done is changed into work that should be done in the consciousness of nurses. In such cases, nurses choose the strategy of implicit rationing to deal with time pressure.
