ObjectiveTo identify primary osteoporosis patients’ function and environment status based on International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and provide evidence to clinical treatment, rehabilitation therapy and rehabilitation nursing.MethodsA questionnaire survey was conducted among osteoporosis patients hospitalized in the Center of rehabilitation Medicine of West China Hospital of SiChuan University, from May 2017 to December 2019. The research design was based on a cross-sectional survey. ICF was applied to simplify the core classification set, and a convenient sampling method was adopted.ResultsA total of 240 patients were investigated. All of the patients’ function showed limitation but different level. Meanwhile, including Walking (D450), Sensation of pain(B280), Structure of trunk (S760), Lifting and carrying objects (D430), Mobility of joint function (B710), the proportion of injuries were more than 90%, most of which the limitation level were light and moderate injuries indicating 5%-49% injuries; more than 50% pointed the three parts of environment factors were facilitative factors including Products or substances for personal consumption (E110), Health professionals (E355), Health services, systems and policies (E580), of which the proportion of Health services, systems and policies (E580) were highest.ConclusionOsteoporosis has a significant effect on patients’ function, we should develop clinical treatment, rehabilitation therapy, rehabilitation nursing based on the current evaluation of function.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect and significance of continuous nursing in patients with clean intermittent catheterization.
MethodsFrom July to December 2013, 47 patients with spinal cord injury still relying on clean intermittent catheterization were selected as the control group, whom were given the routine care and guidance. From January to June 2014, 51 patients with spinal cord injury still relying on clean intermittent catheterization were selected as the study group; in addition to routine nursing instruction before leaving hospital, they were also guided with the continuous nursing. In the way of telephone follow-up, we analyzed the results via the questionnaire of the effect of continuous nursing for spinal cord injured patients with clean intermittent catheterization.
ResultsThe incidence of catheter related complications such as urinary tract infections in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). The caregivers' ability for patients in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01).
ConclusionThe continuous follow-up nursing instruction can improve the nursing ability of caregivers, and effectively reduce the occurrence of catheter related complications.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of systematic rehabilitation nursing for patients with lower limb amputation before prosthesis fitting.
MethodsFifty patients with lower limb amputation before prosthetic fitting from January 2009 to December 2012 were assessed by rehabilitation team members, and then received the nursing progress according to the assessment results. The conditions of the patients before and after nursing intervention were evaluated and compared.
ResultsAfter the patients received systematic rehabilitation nursing intervention, the standard rate of rehabilitation nursing knowledge and satisfaction rate of the nursing quality at the departure of the patients was 87.24% and 93.25% respectively. The muscle strength reached level 4 or higher in 4 patients, who could have the prosthesis fitting.
ConclusionSystematic rehabilitation nursing for patients with lower limb amputation before prosthesis fitting can help patients to reserve the function as possible, improve the ability of living and quality of life, and reduce the burden of the patients and family to return to society earlier.
