Objective To formulate an evidence-based position program for a ventilation patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods Based on fully assessing the patient’s conditions, the clinical problems were put forward according to PICO principles. Such database as The Cochrane Library (2005 to January 2011), DARE (March 2011), CCTR (March 2011), MEDLINE (1996 to January 2011) and CNKI (1979 to January 2011) were retrieved to collect high quality clinical evidence, and then the optimum nursing program was designed in line with patient’s conditions and relatives’ willingness. Results Three meta-analyses, three randomized controlled trials, one systematic review and one anterior-posterior self-control study were included. The available clinical evidence displayed that: a) the prone position adopting earlier, especially for patients with bilateral lungs or left lung functional disorder, was propitious to effectively improve the oxygenation condition and reduce the incidence of ventilator induced lung injury (VILI); b) The long-term prone position could increase the risk of pressure sore; c) The prone position could prolong the survival time, but there was no enough evidence to prove that it could obviously decrease the mortality rate of ARDS. So finally a nursing plan was made in combination with literature evidence and patient’s condition: adopting the prone position after onset within 24 to 36 hours, and enhancing the skin nursing to prevent pressure sore at the same time. After 4-week comprehensive therapy and prone position ventilation, the patient got obvious alleviated in oxygenation, with SpO 2 up to 90% to 100%, stable vital signs, and no more VILI and pressure sore. And then the patient was stopped applying ventilator, and transferred to a general ward for further treatment. Conclusion The earlier adoption of prone position ventilation for severe ARDS can improve oxygenation and reduce ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) and VILI, but whether it can prolong survival time and reduce mortality for mild ARDS or not still has to be proved with more high quality evidence in the future.
Objective To formulate an evidence-based adjuvant therapeutic plan for a patient with large area pressure ulcers. Methods Based on an adequate assessment of the patient’s condition and using the principle of PICO, we searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 1, 2008), DARE (Issue 3, 2008), CCRT (Issue 1, 2008), MEDLINE (1980~ March 2008) and Chinese Journal Full-text Database CNKI (1979~2008) for the best available clinical evidence on adjuvant therapy of large area pressure ulcers with infrared rays, nutrition support and some special overlays. Results Two systematic reviews and three randomized controlled trials were included. According to the current evidence, as well as the patient’s clinical condition and preference, a comprehensive therapeutic plan was given to the patient. And in the next three months with the therapeutic plan, the patient’s large area pressure ulcers had already recovered. Conclusion Evidence based approaches can help us develop the best comprehensive therapeutic plan for the patient and will help improve the therapeutic results for patients with large area pressure ulcers.
Objective To construct a framework and relevant evaluation items for evaluating the core competence of clinical nursing teachers. Methods We explored the whole frame of competence structure and established behavior items for evaluating competences with corresponding level-marking standards through theory analysis, literature study, expert consultation and a small sample test. We also investigated 237 nursing managers, teachers, and students from six medical schools in China using a 5-point Likert-type scale. Item analysis and factor analysis were performed to reveal competence construction and connotation, and the evaluation model for core competence of clinical nursing teachers were constructed. Results Content, structure and internal consistency coefficient were checked for validity. Cronbach＇s alpha of the total system was 0. 9109 and of each domain ranged from 0. 6064 to 0. 8474. Results of Split-half Reliability demonstrated that of total system was 0. 8765 and of each domain ranged from 0. 634 2 to 0. 8369. Conclusions The evaluation model for core competence of clinical nursing teachers is composed of three parts： competence domains, behavior items and their corresponding grade standards. Core competence of clinical nursing teachers consist of four domains：leadership ability, problem-solving ability, teaching ability and nursing ability, each of which contains several behavior items and corresponding four grades standards reflecting different abilities.

护理硕士生作为未来专业领域的中坚力量和领军人物，承担着教学、管理、临床实践指导等多重任务，其临床实践中的学习、深化和带教十分重要。而当前国内在对护理硕士生进行临床带教时，仍采用以科研为主的通才培养模式，缺乏针对性和个体化，也未充分体现护理学的应用性特点。以角色为基础的临床带教模式将护理硕士生的专业角色确定为护理教育者、管理者及高级临床实践者，强调以学生专业角色为导向，制定针对性的临床教学目标和计划，以培养具有专科特色的应用性护理人才。
Patients with chronic diseases usually face severe challenges during their transition from hospital to home, such as poor discharge preparation, the increased incidence of medical errors, insufficient self-care capability, and poor participation in healthcare decision, which can result in increased readmission and poor patient safety. This paper reviews the definition of transitional care, single-element transitional care intervention strategy, and multiple-element transitional care intervention strategy, in order to provide new insights into the development of effective and safe transitional care strategies in China.
ObjectiveTo explore course content and teaching-learning strategies of advanced nursing practice in graduate nursing education, so as to provide reference for nursing schools to develop relevant courses.MethodsA teamof course teachers was set up, and the course was developed. The course was implemented in grade 2015 and 2016 graduate nursing students. The students’ perception and evaluation of course contents, teaching methods, teaching quality, curriculum value and course satisfaction were collected through questionnaires and interviews.ResultsA totalof 23 students were enrolled. The mean scores of teaching quality, curriculum value and course satisfaction were 93.48±1.01, 51.04±4.88, and 17.00±2.28, respectively. Students recognized the necessity and the importance of including the advanced nursing practice in each specialty in the course content, and hoped to add in practice sections.ConclusionsIt is advisable to include the advanced nursing practice in each specialty as well as the practice section, so as to strengthen the students’ concrete understanding of the advanced nursing practice. Seminar and discussion are the teaching methods with first priority.
ObjectiveTo investigate the level and influencing factors of self-management behaviors among maintenance hemodialysis patients.MethodsPatients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were recruited from 4 tertiary hospitals in Chengdu from October 2016 to October 2017. Convenient sampling method was used to select patients. The instruments used in the study included General Information Questionnaire, Hemodialysis Self-management Instrument, Hemodialysis-related Knowledge Questionnaire, Herth Hope Index, Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scale, and Chronic Illness Resources Survey.ResultsA total of 360 patients were investigated, and 343 patients were finally included. The mean score of self-management behavior was 54.87±9.65. The results of multiple linear stepwise regression showed that gender, age, ethnic, monthly family income, chronic illness resources, knowledge and internal health locus of control were the significant influencing factors of self-management behaviors (P<0.05).ConclusionThe self-management behavior among patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis can be promoted by improving the level of knowledge and internal health locus of control, and making effective use of chronic illness resources.
ObjectiveTo investigate the completion of early ambulation in patients with gastric cancer under the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) management mode in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University, and analyze the influencing factors. MethodsFrom November 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022, the patients with gastric cancer who met the inclusion criteria of this study in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University were selected as the survey objects. At 48 h after the operation, the patients were enquired at the bedside and the electronic medical records were accessed to collect the general information, diseases information, etc. of the patients. The postoperative data were also investigated, and the time of early ambulation was investigated, and the influencing factors were analyzed by logistic regression. ResultsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria of this study and the sample size requirements, 140 eligible patients with gastric cancer were investigated, 34 of whom got out of bed early, and the rate of early ambulation was 24.3%. The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that indwelling urinary catheter within 48 h after operation [OR=10.031, 95%CI（1.037, 97.061）, P=0.046] and American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) grade Ⅲ [OR=4.209, 95%CI（1.792, 9.886）, P=0.001] decreased the probability of early ambulation after operation in patients with gastric cancer. ConclusionsFrom the results of this survey, the completion rate of early ambulation in patients with gastric cancer under ERAS mode is lower, which may be improved by reducing the placement of the urinary catheter or shortening the indwelling time of the urinary catheter. For patients with ASA grade Ⅲ having functional decline before surgery, doctor or nurse needs to evaluate their mobility after surgery and help them to finish early ambulation or exercise on hospital bed within their tolerances.
ObjectiveTo analyze the impact of neoadjuvant regimens on prognosis in patients with rectal cancer in the current version of the Database from Colorectal Cancer (DACCA) database. MethodsPatient information was extracted from the updated version of DACCA on November 24, 2022 according to the established screening criteria, and the following items were analyzed: gender, age, body mass index (BMI), marriage, economic conditions, degree of differentiation, neoadjuvant treatment regimen, and pTNM staging. According to the neoadjuvant treatment regimen, the patients were divided into three groups: chemotherapy group, chemotherapy combined radiotherapy group, and chemotherapy combined targeted therapy group, and the overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) of patients in the three groups were analyzed, and the influencing factors of OS and DSS were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models. ResultsAccording to the screening criteria, 1 716 valid data were obtained from the DACCA database, of which 954 (55.6%) were in the chemotherapy group, 332 (19.3%) in the chemotherapy combined radiotherapy group, and 430 (25.1%) in the chemotherapy combined targeted therapy group. The differences in the Kaplan-Merier survival curves of patients with different neoadjuvant regimens for OS and DSS in the three groups were statistically significant (χ2=142.142, P＜0.001; χ2=129.528, P＜0.001). There were significant differences in OS rate and DSS rate between the three groups in 3 years and 5 years (P<0.001). Further comparison of different neoadjuvant therapy groups showed that the OS of the chemotherapy combined targeted therapy group was slightly better than that of the chemotherapy group in 3 years, however, OS and DSS in 5 years were slightly worse than those the chemotherapy group, but the difference were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The OS and DSS of the chemotherapy group and the chemotherapy combined targeted therapy group were better than those of the chemotherapy combined radiotherapy group in 3 years and 5 years, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01). The results of multivariate analysis showed that patients’ age, economic conditions, degree of tumor differentiation, new auxiliary scheme and pTNM staging were the influencing factors of OS and DSS. ConclusionNeoadjuvant treatment regimen will affect the long-term survival prognosis of rectal cancer patients.
