  • Efficacy of Continuous Nursing Intervention on Self-management Ability and Medication Compliance of Patients Undergoing Maintenance Hemodialysis

    ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of follow-up continuous nursing intervention on the self-management ability and medication compliance of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. MethodsBetween June and December 2013, 157 maintenance hemodialysis patients were randomly divided into control group (n=76) and study group (n=81). The control group was given conventional nursing, while the study group received continuous nursing intervention program as well as conventional nursing. Six months later, the self-management ability and medication compliance of the patients were assessed by using self-made Patient Self-management Scale and Morisky Medication Compliance Scale. ResultsSix months later, self-management ability in patients of the study group was significantly better than that in the control group (P<0.05). Medication compliance rate in the study group reached a highest of 45.7%, while it was only 18.4% in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was significant (χ2=13.283, P<0.001). ConclusionFollow-up continuous nursing intervention can obviously improve maintenance hemodialysis patients' ability of self management and compliance behavior, so as to improve the quality of life of these patients.

  • Analysis on the Influence of Diabetes Education and Management Measures on Lost Follow-up during Continuous Nursing

    ObjectiveTo explore the influencing factors for lost follow-up of diabetic patients, looking for suitable follow-up methods for patients in the region of Central and Western China, in order to help ensure the quality of follow-up, improve the rate of follow-up and provide a basis for improving the quality of patients' continuous nursing outside of the hospital. MethodsContinuous nursing was carried out for 600 patients discharged from our department by two full-time diabetes education nurses from September 2012 to April 2014. The data of outside hospital patients who were lost in the follow-up were retrospectively analyzed. According to the sequential order of the patients, they were divided into three groups. The difference among the three groups of patients was analyzed and the effect of nursing intervention on patients' follow-up loss was also analyzed. ResultsThe rate of lost follow-up for the three groups were 29.4%, 20.3%, and 12.2%. Big classroom participation rate was 29.4%, 50.5%, and 57.5%. The lost follow-up rate of group three using team comprehensive management pattern was lower than that in group 1 with traditional supervision intervention. The age of the patients who were lost in the follow-up concentrated under 40 and above 75 years old. The patients with a disease history longer than 10 years with more complications were more likely to be lost in the follow-up. The main reason for lost follow-up was self-conceit and lack of awareness of the follow-up. ConclusionDiversified ways of follow-up can complement each other which can reduce the rate of lost follow-up.

  • Effects of Community-hospital Continuous Nursing on the Satisfaction of Day Surgery Patients in Terms of Their Nursing Needs

    Objective To explore the effect of community-hospital continuous nursing on the satisfaction of day surgery patients in terms of their nursing needs. Methods Sixty patients hospitalized in the day surgery ward in our hospital from April 2014 to March 2015 were enrolled in this study. According to the order of admission, they were divided into control group and observation group with 30 patients in each. Patients in the control group were given health guidance, while those in the observation group were given continuous nursing. Questionnaire survey was conducted in both the two groups. The nursing needs of patients after surgery were summarized, and the satisfaction of patients’ nursing needs through different nursing methods were analyzed. Quality of life questionnaire-C30 was used to evaluate the quality of life of the two groups of patients one month and three months after surgery, and the incidence of postoperative complications of the two groups was statistically analyzed. The changes of daily life ability of patients one month and three months after surgery were evaluated by the modified PAP index. Results Day surgery patients had a high demand for postoperative incision care, dressing change, postoperative medication, dietary guidance, postoperative guidance, health education and other aspects of health care needs. There was little demand for oral pipeline care and physical therapy. The satisfaction rate of patients in the observation group toward n ursing service (96.7%) was significantly higher than that in the control group (66.7%) (P < 0.05). The incidence of postoperative wound bleeding, poor healing, infection, urinary retention and other complications in the observation group was lower than those in the control group, but only the difference in the incidence of infection was statistically significant (P < 0.05). One month and three months after surgery, the quality of life in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The complete self-care ratio in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the proportion of slight defect in the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Continuous community-hospital nursing can improve the satisfaction of patients toward nursing service, promote patients’ quality of life, and facilitate patients’ recovery after surgery.

    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.

  • The impact of integration of doctors-nurses-therapists continuous nursing management on rehabilitation of patients with spinal cord injury

    ObjectiveTo explore the application and effect of integration of doctors-nurses-therapists continuous nursing management in patients with spinal cord injury.MethodsThe patients with spinal cord injury from June to December 2018 in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were selected. A set of numbers was generated by a computer. And the patients were randomly divided into the trial group and the control group. Patients in the control group were given routine discharge continuous nursing management, and patients in the trial group adopted the integration of doctors-nurses-therapists continuous nursing management to implement post-discharge guidance. The activity of daily living (ADL), quality of life or psychological status of the two groups were compared at discharge and 3 months after discharge. The compliance, satisfaction and readmission rates between the two groups were also compared 3 months after discharge.ResultsA total of 60 patients were included, with 30 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in the scores of ADL, quality of life or Huaxi Xinqing index between the two groups (P>0.05). Three months after discharge, the score of ADL (71.65±1.87 vs. 62.70±2.29), quality of life (302.90±2.71 vs. 292.95±3.39), compliance rate of medication on time (86.67% vs. 63.33%), compliance rate of exercise on time (86.67% vs. 60.00%), compliance rate of follow-up visit on time (90.00% vs. 63.33%), compliance rate of reasonable diet (83.33% vs. 60.00%), and satisfaction (90.45±1.82 vs. 79.55±1.39) of patients in the trial group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). There was significant difference in Huaxi Xinqing index between the trial group and the control group (14.57±1.36 vs. 21.60±1.88, P<0.001). The readmission rate of the trial group was lower than that of the control group (6.67% vs. 26.67%), but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Three months after discharge, the ADL and quality of life in both groups were significantly different from those at discharge (P<0.001); the score of Huaxi Xinqing index in the control group was higher than that at discharge (t=-17.971, P<0.001), which in the trial group was also higher than that at discharge, but the difference was not statistically significant (t=-1.352, P=0.187).ConclusionThe integration of doctors-nurses-therapists continuous nursing management can effectively improve the ADL, quality of life and compliance of discharged patients with spinal cord injury, improve the mental state of patients, and improve patient satisfaction, which is helpful for the rehabilitation of patients with spinal cord injury outside the hospital.
