Background The nursing workforce comprises multiple generations, each with unique values, beliefs, and expectations that can influence communication, work ethic, and professional relationships. In Qatar, the generational gap between nurses and nurse managers poses challenges to effective communication and teamwork, impacting job satisfaction and patient outcomes. Aim This study investigates the generational gap between nurses and nurse managers in Qatar, aiming to identify strategies to enhance collaboration and create a positive work environment. Methods A qualitative research design was used, involving semi-structured interviews with 20 participants, including frontline nurses and senior nurse managers. Participants were purposively sampled to represent different generations. Data were collected through face-to-face and virtual interviews, then transcribed and thematically analyzed. Findings Four key themes emerged: Optimizing the Work Environment : Older generations preferred transformational and situational leadership, while younger nurses valued respect, teamwork, accountability, and professionalism. Strengthening Work Atmosphere through Communication and values : Older nurses favored face-to-face communication, while younger nurses preferred digital tools. Cultivating Respect and Empathy : Younger nurses emphasized fairness in assignments and promotions, while older nurses focused on empathy and understanding. Dynamic Enhancement of Healthcare Systems : Younger nurses were more adaptable to technology and professional development, while older nurses prioritized clinical care and patient outcomes. Conclusion The study reveals significant generational differences in leadership preferences, communication styles, and adaptability to technology. Addressing these gaps through effective leadership, ongoing education, and open communication can improve job satisfaction and patient care.

Background and Aims The neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a cost‐effective indicator of inflammation, which may impact decisions regarding therapy for patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), even with ongoing clinical arguments. This study aimed to examine the correlation between NLR and the prognosis of critically ill patients undergoing CRRT, specifically about mortality and morbidity. Additionally, the study sought to assess NLR's potential as a prognostic indicator for CRRT initiation. Methods Data were retrospectively analyzed from 175 critically ill patients who received CRRT. Clinical factors and biochemical markers were compared between survivors and non‐survivors at admission, before CRRT, and at 24 and 72 h post‐CRRT initiation. Results Elevated NLR levels were significantly associated with increased in‐hospital mortality. Neutrophil counts showed statistical significance across all measurement points, while NLR and lymphocyte counts were significant only on the third day of CRRT (p 0.001 and 0.011, respectively). Non‐survivors had higher NLR values than survivors and experienced shorter hospital stays (median 22 vs. 44 days for survivors, p < 0.001). Patients with higher baseline NLR values also had more complications. Conclusions The NLR shows potential as a prognostic predictor for mortality in CRRT patients. Its integration into clinical practice could enhance patient care and treatment timing, and further studies should validate its clinical utility.
