Abstract
Preparing the next generation of nurses requires consideration for the integration of emerging technologies. This refers specifically to technologies that will shape and affect how care is delivered-not in today's health care facilities but in facilities 20 years from now and beyond. A cross-sectional survey examining how seven emerging technologies were integrated into nursing curricula was developed and distributed to nursing faculty. A multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the data for the level of integration. The model was adjusted for all demographic measures, and the independent variables of interest were developed from unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) constructs. Performance, attitude, social influence, and effort were insignificant. Education and training, costs, and complexity were noted as top barriers to adoption. A literature gap regarding integrating emerging technologies in nursing curricula exists. Further research is warranted to understand factors influencing integration.
