ObjectiveTo explore the effect of continuous nursing on lung transplant patients at home based on humanistic care. MethodsAccording to hospitalization order, patients who received lung transplantation in our hospital from January 2016 to October 2020 were divided into a control group and a nursing group. The control group was treated with routine lung transplantation education and regular follow-up after discharge, and the nursing group received humanistic care during follow-up, health education at discharge, cultural exchange activities, and home care plans. After discharge, the self-management ability at home, medication adherence and satisfaction of home care between the two groups were campared. ResultsA total of 60 patients were included in the study. There were 23 patients in the control group, including 16 males and 7 females, with an average age of 58.70±11.00 years. There were 37 pateints in the nursing group, including 25 males and 12 females, with an average age of 57.90±13.20 years. The scores of self-management ability at home of the nursing group (self-concept 27.41±2.37 points vs. 21.78±3.54 points; self-care responsibility 20.73±1.63 points vs. 16.83±2.79 points; self-care skills 41.46±3.77 points vs. 28.26±4.11 points; health knowledge level 57.95±4.10 points vs. 44.87±5.79 points) were higher than those in the control group (all P＜0.05). The medication adherence (7.47±0.46 points vs. 6.87±0.28 points) and satisfaction of home care (23.80±1.20 points vs. 20.50±1.90 points) in the nursing group were higher than those in the control group (both P<0.05). ConclusionContinuous nursing based on humanistic care for lung transplant patients can effectively improve the self-management ability, medication adherence and nursing satisfaction of patients after discharge.
Objective To investigate the current status of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and clinical controlled trials (CCTs) on pressure sore in China. Methods We searched Chinese Journal of Nursing, Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing and Journal of Nurses Training in CNKI and VIP (January 2000 to December 2005) for Chinese articles on pressure sore, using "pressure sore", "bed sore", "nursing", "treatment", "prevention", "evaluation" and "management" as search terms. The retrieved articles were summarized. Results We identified 16 reports (10 RCTs and 6 CCTs). The studies were judged to be of low quality.There was one study on the evaluation, two on the prevention, and 13 on the treatment of pressure sores. Conclusion The current studies on pressure sore in China are focusing on treatment. Randomized controlled trials of large sample size of pressure sore are needed to improve nursing quality.
In order to promote the development of lung transplantation nursing in China, and to provide patients with comprehensive, safe, scientific and standardized surgical nursing, thoracic surgery experts and nursing experts from medical institutions qualified for lung transplantation were convened for extensive consultation. This consensus was developed in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine and based on the published best evidence in Chinese and English. This consensus aims to solve the potential problems in nursing cooperation in lung transplantation surgery to the greatest extent, and provide a scientific and standardized nursing cooperation plan for lung transplantation surgeries.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of humanistic nursing care on patients in the Emergency Department.
MethodsBetween May and August 2013, 166 acute patients were randomly divided into trial group and the control group (83 patients in each group). The patients in the control group received routine nursing care, while the patients in the trial group were given routine and humanistic nursing care. The patient's satisfaction of nursing skill and work attitude, grasp of disease related knowledge, compliance, and disease control effec were compared between the two groups.
ResultsThe patient's satisfaction, grasp of disease related knowledge, compliance, disease control effect in the experiment group were superior to the control group (P<0.05).
ConclusionThe implementation of humanistic nursing care on patients in Emergency Department is effective, and it's worthy of clinical promotion.
Objective To define the attributes and priorities of evidence-based nursing curriculum needs of nursing students, so as to provide operational reference for the design and development of evidence-based nursing course in the future. Methods Questionnaire was designed based on Kano model, and convenient sampling method was adopted to investigate the nursing students who had received training or had experience in evidence-based nursing from September to November 2020. According to the Kano model attribute classification method, the need attribute of evidence-based nursing curriculum was defined. Results A total of 303 nursing students were investigated. Kano model analysis showed that 11 of the needs for evidence-based nursing courses were one-dimensional quality, which belonged to the dimension of teaching resources and teaching content, and 5 were indifference quality, which belonged to the course assessment dimension. The importance-satisfaction matrix showed that the need of evidence-based nursing curriculum was concentrated in the advantage area and minor excepting improvement area. Conclusions In the future curriculum design, evidence-based nursing teachers need to continue to maintain the demand items in the advantage area and constantly improve and perfect them. They also need to pay more attention to the demand items in the minor excepting improvement area. Combined with the current problems in evidence-based nursing practice and the evidence-based needs of students, teachers need to further put forward suggestions on evidence-based nursing curriculum.
Objective To search for, assess, and summarize the best evidence for antimicrobial allergy assessment in hospitalized patients, so as to provide an evidence-based basis for clinical nursing practice. Methods UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, National Guideline Clearinghouse, Guidelines International Network, Yimaitong, JBI Evidence Synthesis, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, CQVIP, SinoMed, and related association websites were searched by computer for literature about clinical decisions, guidelines, expert consensuses, evidence summaries, systematic reviews and meta-analyses related to antimicrobial allergy assessment in hospitalized patients. The search time limit was from the establishment of the databases to September 2024. Two researchers trained in evidence-based practice screened the literature and evaluated the quality independently. Finally, the evidence-based research group extracted and integrated the evidence after discussion. Results Totally 8 articles were involved, including 6 guidelines and 2 systematic reviews. Finally, 25 pieces of best evidence were obtained across 6 aspects, including the importance of antimicrobial allergy assessment, the subjects of allergy assessment, the personnel conducting allergy assessment, the content of allergy assessment, the recording of allergy history, and assessment tips. Conclusion When applying and transforming evidence, medical staff should fully consider the actual clinical situation and explore the evaluation scheme of antimicrobial allergy history of hospitalized patients with local characteristics, to improve the accuracy of evaluation of antimicrobial allergy history of hospitalized patients, so as to strengthen the safety management of drug use and improve the level of rational drug use.
Objective To identify the factors which influence the effectiveness of clinical evaluation of undergraduate nursing students. Methods A self-made questionnaire was used in face-to-face interviews with 158 clinical teachers of undergraduate nursing students in four teaching hospitals in Sichuan. Results The main factors that influence the effectiveness of clinical evaluation of undergraduate nursing students included: clinical environment, duration of evaluation, degree of familiarity with the evaluation criteria of clinical teachers, and evaluation methods used by clinical teachers. The less important factors included: “halo-effect” of teachers to students, relationship between teachers and students, attitude towards evaluation and emotional status of clinical teachers. Conclusion It is of great importance to improve the clinical environment, provide enough time for clinical teachers to evaluate, cultivate and improve clinical teachers’ evaluation and competence, and establish a good relationship between teachers and students.This should improve the accuracy, objectivity and fairness of undergraduate nursing students’ clinical evaluation.
ObjectiveTo explore the application and effect of clinical nursing pathway based on information-knowledge-attitude-practice (IKPA) theory in percutaneous renal needle biopsy.MethodsThis is a historical control study. A total of 460 patients who underwent percutaneous renal biopsy in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between April and December 2020 were prospectively recruited as the pathway group, and a clinical nursing pathway based on IKAP theory was implemented. By contrast, the data of 617 patients who underwent percutaneous renal biopsy and received routine care in the same hospital between April and December 2019 were retrospectively collected as the control group. The length of hospital stay, hospitalization expenses, the incidences of postoperative complications (macroscopic haematuria, perirenal hematoma, and acute urinary retention), the incidence of postoperative postural hypotension, and the management enrollment rate of chronic kidney disease patients were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe length of hospital stay [median (lower quartile, upper quartile): 8 (7, 11) vs. 8 (7, 12) d] and the hospitalization expenses [median (lower quartile, upper quartile): 7380.50 (6401.86, 8789.21) vs. 8167.00 (6816.50, 10044.50) yuan] were less in the pathway group than those in the control group, the incidences of postoperative macroscopic haematuria (1.52% vs. 6.97%) and perirenal hematoma (2.61% vs. 5.02%) were lower in the pathway group than those in the control group, the management enrollment rate of chronic kidney disease patients was higher in the pathway group than that in the control group (26.09% vs. 6.16%), and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The differences in the incidences of acute urinary retention (8.26% vs. 11.18%) and postoperative postural hypotension (0.00% vs. 0.81%) between the two groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05).ConclusionThe application of clinical nursing pathway in percutaneous renal needle biopsy can effectively reduce the length of hospital stay and hospitalization expenses, and improve the management enrollment rate of chronic kidney disease patients.
