ABSTRACT
Fecal incontinence is a very common problem in critically ill and elderly patients and long-term hospitalized bedridden patients, which can easily cause complications such as perianal dermatitis, pressure ulcers and infections, increase patient suffering, and increase medical expenses. Devices that effectively transfer or drain feces are critical to reducing complications after fecal incontinence. This article uses this as a starting point to summarize the main components, current status of use and evaluation indicators of built-in drainage devices at home and abroad, which provides a reference for the development of more scientific and feasible auxiliary tools for fecal incontinence.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of group painting art therapy on social function rehabili-tation and quality of life of chronic schizophrenia patients. Methods Totally 104 inpatients with schizophre-nia were assigned to study group with 53 cases and control group with 51 cases by random number table method. Patients in study group received group painting art therapy intervention,medication and other reha-bilitation activities. While the patients in control group were only given medication and other rehabilitation activities. All patients in both groups received positive and negative symptoms scale(PANSS),schizophrenia quality of life scale(SQLS) and scale of social-skills for psychiatric inpatients(SSPI) before and after the in-tervention. The results were analyzed by independent sample t test. Results Before treatment,there were no significant differences of the total scores and the dimensional subscores of PANSS,SQLS and SSPI between the study group and control group( all P>0. 05). Compared with control group,the difference score between pre-test and post-test of PANSS ((12. 26±6. 87) vs (5. 11±3. 11),t=13. 11,P<0. 01) and negative symp-tom ((-7. 96±5. 44) vs (-2. 82±3. 47),t=-12. 30,P<0. 01),score of SQLS ((27. 45±12. 22) vs (2. 41 ±10. 68),t=-11. 11,P<0. 01) and score of SSPI((-20. 40±8. 10) vs (-0. 94±8. 01),t=12. 31,P<0. 01) in study group changed statistically(all P<0. 01). Conclusion These results suggest that group painting art therapy intervention can improve the negative symptoms,the quality of life and the recovery of social function in patients with chronic schizophrenia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) on the conversion of individuals with ultra-high-risk (UHR) of schizophrenia,and to find out the related influence factors.Methods Patients were randomly divided into study group (50 cases) and control group (49 cases) by the digital random table method.The study group received cognitive behavioral therapy,and the control group only got follow-up questionnaire.Structured Interview for Prodromal Syndromes (SIPS) was used to evaluate psychosis risk symptoms of each UHR individuals at baseline,3 months,6 months,12 months and 18 months respectively and the effects of CBT on conversion and related influencing factors were analyzed.Results There was no significant difference in the conversion rate (P＞ 0.05) between study group and control group after 3 months,but the conversion rate of study group was significantly lower than the control group after 6 months(6.00％ vs 20.41％,P＜0.05),12 months(10.00％ vs 24.49％,P＜0.05)and 18 months(10.00％ vs 28.57％,P＜0.05).CBT could effectively improve conditions for individuals with positive symptom (study group:5.30±3.62,5.04±3.89,4.38±4.13,5.26±3.65,5.94±4.19,control group:5.59±3.62,6.33±5.29,6.98 ±4.96,7.02±5.02,8.39±6.42,F=4.326,P=0.000) of UHR,but the improvement was not significant for negative individuals (F=1.555,P=0.215).CBT could be effective for disorganized symptom (F=6.901,P =0.010) and general symptom (F=7.752,P=0.006) as well.The poor family relationship was the risk factor of conversion to the schizophrenia (OR=3.411,95％CI=1.016-11.453,P=0.047).Conclusion CBT can effectively reduce the conversion rate of UHR individuals.CBT has a good remission effect on the positive symptoms,disintegrating symptoms and general symptoms of UHR.Family relationship affects prognosis of UHR individuals.
ABSTRACT
Objective To prepare the Elderly Functional Constipation(FC) Health Education Scale, and verify its reliability and validity. Methods The Elderly FC Health Education Scale was prepared by qualitative interviews, literature review, and Delphi method. The elderly patients who were over 60 years old and at Chinese PLA 181st Hospital were recruited by the purposive sampling method from January 2013 to August 2015.The diagnostic criteria of RomanⅢwas used to diagnose FC, the data of preliminary investigation and large sample test was used to form the formal scale, and its reliability and validity were further verified. Results The Elderly FC Health Education Scale was compiled with 6 dimensions and 28 items, and the Cronbach alpha coefficient which was the internal consistency reliability of the 6 factor was 0.965; the correlation coefficient analysis of equality reliability Kendall tau-b rank and various index variables score were positive correlation significantly. Both item level content validity index and scale level content validity index of the content validity were as a result of 1. The structure validity of the cumulated variance contribution ratio of the 6 factors were 60.15%. All factor loading coefficients between the items were more than 0.5, which indicated the fitting was good. Conclusions The reliability and validity of the Elderly FC Health Education Scale are good, and the scale may be used as a tool to prevent the elderly FC health education, and also be applied to the elderly FC patients in self-management and continue nursing after leaving hospital.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the responsibility and quality requirement of head nurses in nursing quality improvement in obstetrical and gynecological department.Methods The responsibility of head nurses in nursing quality improvement in obstetrical and gynecological department were investigated by carrying out surveys in patients of obstetrical and gynecological department.Results The quality of head nurses needed improvement and their responsibility required definitude,thus the satisfaction degree of patients and nursing quality can be improved.Conclusions Through this research,we find that the head nurses not only need good quality,but also should be given definite responsibility and certain service,supervising and management power,if so,they can fully exert their role in nursing work.
