The essence of ensuring universal nutritional health lies in achieving a balance between the growing demand for nutritional health and the supply of adequate and balanced nutritional services. This paper learns and draws on the ideological theory and methodological support of evidence-based science, optimizing practices, reevaluations, monitoring risks, producing evidence and cultivating talents so as to enable the interdisciplines of evidence-based nutrition and develop in a localized way and gain optimal timeliness, quantity and quality.
Knowledge translation (KT) provides a paradigm to bridge the gap between knowledge and practice, which has critical instructive significance for health promotion. This article expounds on the connotation of KT by comparing it with similar terms. Next, it introduces three kinds of common KT theoretical models, including process models, determinant frameworks, and evaluation frameworks. Finally, its application and experiences in health promotion are summarized to provide references for the ongoing health promotion in China.
Objective To investigate the current status of health promoting lifestyle in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and to explore its correlation with chronic illness resource utilization. Methods Patients who underwent outpatient MHD in the Hemodialysis Room of the Department of Nephrology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University between January and March 2023 were selected. Patients were surveyed using the General Information Questionnaire, Chronic Illness Resource Survey, and Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile-Ⅱ Revise. Results A total of 158 patients were surveyed. MHD patients scored 103.37±18.52 on health promoting lifestyle, and 68.95±14.14 on chronic illness resource utilization. The Pearson correlation analysis results showed that there was a positive correlation between the chronic illness resource utilization and the total score of health promoting lifestyle in MHD patients (r=0.765, P<0.001), as well as scores in all dimensions (P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the main caregivers being parents [non-standardized partial regression coefficient (b)=8.150, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.804, 15.497), P=0.030], weekly dialysis times [b=10.701, 95%CI (2.787, 18.615), P=0.008], and chronic illness resource utilization [b=0.936, 95%CI (0.800, 1.072), P<0.001] were influencing factors for health promoting lifestyle. Conclusions MHD patients have an average health promoting lifestyle, and ideal chronic illness resource utilization. Hemodialysis nurses can take targeted measures to enhance chronic illness resource utilization and health promoting lifestyle in MHD patients, which can further improve the quality of life of MHD patients.
