ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of nursing interventions on the quality of life of patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving nursing interventions were collected from the databases of Cochrane,PubMed,Elsevier Science Direct,VIP,CNKI and WanFang.Data were analyzed with RevMan 5.1 software.Results 8 articles met the inclusion criteria.The results of Meta-analysis showed that there was considerable heterogeneity across the analysis,which might be resulted from length of intervention and patients of different ages according to subgroup analysis,and that gender was not the factor causing heterogeneity.In the experimental group,both physical and emotional aspects after receiving nursing interventions were significantly improved than the control group.Conclusions Nursing interventions can improve the quality of life of patients with CAPD.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of self-management ability in patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Methods Totally 339 CAPD patients with clinical follow-up regularly were investigated for the situation of self-management with general information questionnaire and Self-management Scale for CAPD.Results The total score of patients' self-management ability was (66.03±15.57).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level,marital status,occupation and duration of dialysis were influencing factors of patients' self-management ability.Conclusions Patients undergoing CAPD have certain degree of self-management ability.Nurses should promote their self-management ability according to different education level,marital status,occupation and duration of dialysis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To develop the scale of volume-management for peritoneal dialysis(PD) patients.Methods The item pool was formulated based on literature review and in-depth interviews.An initial scale was constructed through two rounds of Delphi expert consultation and preliminary test.Totally 125 PD patients from Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai area were investigated to test the reliability and validity of the scale.Results 2 factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis,which contained 8 items and could explain 66.07％ of the total variance.The content validity index was 1.0,the Cronbach α was 0.870,and test-retest reliability was 0.930.Conclusions The scale is proved to be a reliable and valid tool for the volume-management assessment of PD patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of volume management on volume overload among continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Methods The literature were searched by the databases of PubMed,ScienceDirect,Ovid,Cochrane Library,Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Databases (VIP),China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI).Data were analyzed with RevMan5.0 software.Results Ten literatures were included in this study.The results of Meta-analysis revealed that volume management could significantly reduce the body weight,degree of edema and systolic blood pressure.However,no significant difference on the diastolic blood pressure appeared.Conclusions Body weight,degree of edema and systolic blood pressure can be improved by effective volume management.Further study about effect of volume control on diastolic blood pressure should be provided in the future.
ABSTRACT
Objective The aim of the study is to explore the sexual life situation of adult males with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Methods Data of experience about sexual life of 12 male CAPD patients was collected using in-depth interview and were analyzed with category approach.Results Five themes were sublimated:declined sexual desire,decreased self-confidence to get and to maintain an erection,restraint of sexual life,changes in sexual and marriage satisfaction,and urgent desire for sexual knowledge.Conclusions There are varying degrees of sexual dysfunction in adult male CAPD patients.Nurses should pay attention to and supply the education of sexual knowledge.
