ABSTRACT
Objective:To understand the sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies, and analyze the correlation between them.Methods:A total of 128 first-line nursing staff participating in public health emergencies on February 22-23, 2020 in Tianjin Beichen Hospital, Tianjin First Central Hospital, Tianjin Fourth Central Hospital were investigated by the general data questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90).Results:70.3%(90/128) of nursing staff had poor sleep quality, and the total score of PSQI was (9.71±4.01) points, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ( t value was 16.479, P<0.01). The total score of SCL-90 was 1.59±0.52, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ratio ( t value was 4.505, P<0.01). One-way ANOVA showed that the nursing staff's age had a significant impact on sleep quality, and the difference was statistically significant ( F value was 4.092, P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the Pittsburgh sleep quality scale index scores and symptom self-assessment scale and somatization, force, sensitive interpersonal relationship, depression, anxiety, hostile, terrorist, paranoia, and psychosis were positively correlated( r values were 0.292-0.444, P< 0.01). Conclusions:The sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies are poor, and the sleep quality is correlated with mental health status.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of continued nursing intervention on quality of life of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Methods The study took use of randomized controltest. All the 130 patients who were on admission because of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were randomly divided into the intervention group (62 cases) and the control group (68 cases). The intervention group received telephone and home follow-up for one year, and the control group was provided conventional care. Lung function, SGRQ and dyspnea degree were collected on one-month,three-month, six-month, twelve-month after intervention. Results Lung function and activity scores of SGRQ, dyspnea degree and six minutes walk test between two groups had statistical significance after intervention. Conclusions Continued nursing intervention can postpone the rate of FEV1% declining, reduce dysnea degree, decrease the frequency of acute exacerbation, increase the quality of life of COPD patients.
