ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis ( CAPD) and daytime ambulatory perito-neal dialysis ( DAPD) on sleep quality. Methods This is a multi-center cross-sectional survey, we used the Pittsburgh Sleep Index Scale ( PSQI) ,the unified investigating time, the organized trained peritoneal dialysis nurses qualified to conduct research full-time. Survey content includes general information, sleep index, laboratory tests, dialysis adequacy and other indicators, and the results were pooled analysis. Results A total of eight hospitals of 325 patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis were included in this study,which CAPD patients and DAPD Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale scores were 6.88 ±2.43,6.71 ±2.69, the difference was not statisti-cally significant (P>0.01).DAPD patients had a lower sleep efficiency than CAPD patients, but it had no difference between subjec-tive feeling, CAPD patients were more likely to have more nocturnal cough, snoring and other symptoms and lower quality of life in mental status scores than DAPD patients(P<0.01). Conclusion Sleep quality of peritoneal dialysis patients scored lower than the norm.Dialysis modes have an impact on sleep quality of patients, health care workers should fully assess the physical and mental state of the patients in order to select the appropriate mode of dialysis.
ABSTRACT
Objective Peritoneal dialysis can be done at home , however , its clinical follow-up quality is lower compared with hemodialysis due to the lack of detailed follow-up system and professional management team for post-discharge nursing care .The article aimed to explore the effect of a nurse-led integrated specialized disease management model in the follow-up of peritoneal dialysis patients . Methods Nurse-led integrated specialized disease management model was provided for 270 patients with peritoneal dialysis (PD) from January 2012 to May 2013.Self-designed questionnaire on diasease knowledge and self-care assement questionnaire were used for patients to evaluate their self-care ability and understanding of disease knowledge .Regular follow-up continued . Results The patients′understanding of disease knowledge was on the rise at 1st day before discharge, 1st month and 3rd months after discharge. After the application of nurse-led integrated specialized disease management model , the patients′regular clinical follow-up rate was in-creased from 78.3% to 88.6%.The patients′self-care ability improved gradually at 1st day before discharge , 1st month and 3rd months after discharge , which was of significant differences . Conclusion The nurse-led nurse-led integrated specialized disease management model can improve peritoneal dialysis patients′self-care ability and reduce their medical expense , which is of clinical sig-nificance .
