ObjectiveTo analyze the increased risks of nursing due to expansion of ophthalmic day surgery indications, and the countermeasures. MethodsWe collected the information in the last three years from January 2012 to December 2014 in the Department of Ophthalmology, including the number of operations, the proportion of cataract patients, patients aged over 70 and under 12 years old, patients with high-risk fall, the number of general anesthesia operations, adverse events, and the data from the satisfaction survey of the patients. All the data were analyzed by statistical method. ResultsDuring the last three years, the relaxation of ophthalmic day surgery indications led to an increased admission rate of high-risk patients, and caused more nursing risk factors. Through the efforts of prevention and care, during the last three years, there were no adverse events, and patients had a satisfaction rate over 90%. ConclusionAlthough the ophthalmic day surgery indication has been relaxed, through the establishment of nursing risk response system by pre-hospital guidance, admission assessment, peri-operative education and follow-up visit, with the continuous improvement of nursing management system and convenient workflow, we can not only improve the work efficiency, but also ensure nursing safety.
Objective To investigate the current status of clinical nursing risks to nursing students, so as to provide scientific references for medical universities and policy makers. Methods The self-designed questionnaires were distributed to 360 clinical nursing students in four Third-Level hospitals. The group leaders were trained as investigators regularly. All the other nursing students were asked to fill in the questionnaire alone within 30 minutes. The questions issued were the following four aspects: general information of nursing students, clinical intern operating situation, nursing defects and awareness of nursing risks. Results Among the total 400 questionnaires distributed, 360 valid ones were retrieved (90%). The analysis showed all 21 nursing operations could be performed by students alone, and 80% of the nursing students believed that they were able to do 11 routine operations alone, such as bed-making and vital sign monitoring. The incidence rate of eight nursing defects was between 0.56% and 12.22%. As for the four questions about nursing risks, 49.44% of the nursing students operated alone before getting themselves ready because of their eagerness for such experiences. According to the nursing students, the departments with the highest nursing risks ranked as emergency, operating theatre, surgery, pediatrics, internal medicine, and gynecology and obstetrics. Conclusion The current situation of clinical nursing risks to nursing interns is still far from being satisfactory, so it is necessary to improve the training at university, regulate the clinical education, and ensure the intern safety for nursing students.

Objective To explore the effect of evidence-based nursing education on the critical thinking ability of nursing students. Methods One hundred and two junior college nursing students participated in this study. They were divided into the experimental group and the control group. All of them received standard clinical nursing practice training, and students in the experimental group also attended evidence-based nursing training. All the students completed the Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory before and after training. Results Students in the experimental group had improved critical thinking ability compared with the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (Plt;0.05). Conclusions Evidence-based nursing education can improve the critical thinking ability of nursing students.
ObjectiveTo investigate the problems in the use of quick-drying hand disinfectants and formulate intervention measures to improve the hand hygiene compliance of nursing staff.MethodsFrom February 2014 to June 2016, the hand hygiene compliance of nursing staff was continuously observed according to the hand hygiene observation table recommended by the World Health Organization. The questionnaire on the use of quick-drying hand disinfectants, which passed the reliability and validity test, was used to find out the reasons leading to the low compliance rate of hand hygiene among nurses, and pertinent interventions were formulated. From November 2016 to December 2017, intervention measures were gradually implemented throughout the hospital, and the hand hygiene compliance of nursing staff was continuously observed again. Then we compared the compliance rate of hand hygiene and the compliance rate of hygienic hand disinfection among nurses in the second quarter of 2016 (before intervention) with those in the last quarter of 2017 (after intervention).ResultsThe compliance rates of hand hygiene and hygienic hand disinfection among nurses before intervention were 62.15% and 49.77%, respectively, and those after intervention were 91.64% and 90.80%, respectively. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionThe factors affecting the hand hygiene compliance of nursing staff are identified through questionnaires and targeted intervention measures have effectively improved the hand hygiene compliance rate of nursing staff.
ObjectiveTo explore the related factors and nursing countermeasures for psychonosema in postoperative laryngeal cancer patients. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of eight patients who accepted laryngectomy and developed psychonosema from January 2008 to April 2013. The related factors for psychonosema in these patients were analyzed and nursing countermeasures were summarized. ResultsEight patients had different degree of psychonosema, and it was correlated with psychological factors, various channels of undesirable stimulation, sleep disorders, drug and other factors. After treatment and careful nursing, within three to seven days, all patients' abnormal mental symptoms were alleviated, and all of them were discharged. ConclusionThere are many factors which can cause psychonosema after laryngectomy for laryngeal carcinoma. Medical staff should try to reduce or avoid inducing factors. Once it happens, medical staff should carry out psychiatric treatment in time to avoid accidents and promote the rehabilitation of patients.
Objective To evaluate the effect of clinical pathway (CP) teaching methods versus traditional methods in nursing clinical teaching. Methods The following electronic databases as PubMed, EMBASE, The Cochrane Library, CBM and CNKI were retrieved on computer from their establishment to April 2011 to search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of comparing CP with traditional methods in nursing clinical teaching. The methodological quality of the included RCTs was assessed by two reviewers independently according to the scale of criteria for methodological quality developed by Smits PB, and the meta-analysis was conducted by using the Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan5.1 software. Results A total of 12 RCTs involving 1 269 participants were included, and nine of them were of high quality. The meta-analyses showed that compared with the traditional teaching method, the CP teaching tended to be superior (Plt;0.05) in improving nursing students’ objective knowledge, nursing operating skills, professional ability and satisfaction with teaching methods, and in improving patients’ satisfaction as well. Conclusion The clinical pathway teaching method is a scientific teaching model in nursing clinical teaching; it standardizes the teaching procedure, promotes students’ active learning and further enhances the teaching effect. But it is necessary to unify the method of assessment with more researches. In addition, researchers should pay more attention to improving the comprehensive quality of nursing students.
ObjectiveTo investigate the preoperative cognition of the patients undergoing daytime ophthalmic fundus surgery and understand their needs of health education, so as to provide an evidence for efficient and accurate preoperative health education services within the limited time of the ophthalmic day fundus surgery.MethodsThe convenient sampling method was used to select the patients who met the inclusion criteria in the ambulatory operating room of Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from December 2017 to May 2018. The study included three parts: the general information of the patients, the preoperative cognition of the patients, and the needs for health education service of the patients. Questionnaires were designed according to the research purpose and method, which were distributed and recovered by professionals.ResultsA total of 112 patients were included. Among them, the cognitive scores of operation process (2.57±0.56), preoperative diet (2.58±0.59), preoperative medication (2.60±0.64), and psychological status (2.58±0.65) were relatively low. More health education services were needed in three aspects: the cognition of operation details [operation duration (85.71%), surgeons (79.46%), operation start time (76.79%)], intraoperative cooperation (90.18%), and intervention for preoperative anxiety (78.57%).ConclusionNurses should formulate the contents of preoperative health education according to the preoperative cognition and nursing needs of patients, so as to provide efficient and accurate health education services for patients.
Objective To explore the characteristics of articles related to Evidence-based Nursing (EBN) and to identify the problems and difficulties encountered by clinical nurses when they were engaged in evidence-based practice in China.Methods We searched for articles published in 6 nursing journals in China from 2000 to early 2006, and classified, investigated and analyzed the retrieved articles. Results Research on EBN has been changing from explaining theories and methods to applying research results in nursing practice. Among articles on clinical application, 90.9% did not describe the methods and search strategy used; 63.6% did not specify the sources of the evidence applied in practice; 93.9% did not describe the methodological quality of the evidence; only 6.1% used the results of systematic reviews or randomized trials to guide clinical practice; and 72.7% did not use effective evaluation methods to identify the nursing outcomes after applying evidences in clinical practice. Conclusions The quality of EBN related articles needs to improve further. Nurses should learn more about the knowledge and skills associated with EBN so as to improve the quality of nursing practice and of academic articles on EBN
Objective To evaluate the methodological quality of clinical trials on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) nursing in recent six years.Methods Such databases as CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data and CBM were searched for collecting clinical trials on TCM nursing published from January 2006 to September 2011, and domestic primary nursing journals were also searched from January 2010 and September 2011. Methodological quality of included studies was assessed using quality assessment criteria of the Cochrane systematic review guideline. Results A total of 854 clinical trials were retrieved, including 706 (82.7%) randomized controlled trials (RCTs), 108 (12.6%) quasi-randomized controlled trials and 40 (4.7%) non-randomized controlled trials. In the methodological quality analysis, the comparability of baseline was mentioned in 784 trials (91.8%), a total of 498 (58.3%) reported definite diagnosis criteria. 178 (20.8%) reported exclusive criteria. 831 studies (97.3%) applied relevant statistical methods properly. However, only 55 trials (6.4%) mentioned the method of randomization sequence. 10 studies (1.2%) described the method of randomiztion assignment. Blinding was mentioned in 22 studies (2.6%). 98 trials (11.5%) did prospective follow-up. 93 trials (10.9%) had safety description. 20 trials (2.3%) reported lost and with drawl cases, but only 2 conducted intention-to-treat analysis. It was hard to determine whether there was selective reporting bias or not because all the studies did not have protocols. Only 21 studies (2.5%) mentioned the lack of outcome indicators which could be the evidence for existing of bias. By annual analysis, there were 81 trials which conformed to at least 2 low risk criteria. 10 trials (12.3%) was published in 2009, 26 trials (32.1%) published in 2010, and 27 trials published by September 2011, indicated an uptrend. Conclusions According to the Cochrane Collaboration’s tool for assessing risk of bias, the overall quality of clinical trials on TCM nursing is low with defects in different degrees, but it rises gradually over years.
