ABSTRACT
Sense of coherence is a hot topic in the field of international psychological research in recent years. It opens a new perspective for exploring individual′s physical and mental health. As a typical representative of high risk and high-intensity work, the psychological consistency of nursing staff is more obvious. Now in this paper, the concept of psychological alignment and its development in the field of nursing were summarized, summarizes the content of the psychological theory of alignment in nursing, dimension and measurement tools, this paper analyzes the related variables. However, there is a lack of research on the longitudinal study and intervention strategy of psychological consensus in nursing field at home and abroad, which needs further empirical research.
ABSTRACT
Objective Analysis the relationship between influencing factors and self consistency among patients under maintenance hemodialysis. Methods A total of 146 patients under maintenance hemodialysis were investigated , Research tools include: the self-designed basic information questionnaire, Self Consistency and Congruence Scale, The Meaning in Life Questionnaire,and Acceptance Action Questionnaire. One-way anova, correlation analysis,multiple regression analysis were used to analyze the relationship between influencing factors and self consistency. Results The average score of self consistency and congruence was (94.34±16.13). The score of self-stereotype dimension was (21.22±5.16), higher than that of norm of college students (t=5.132,P<0.01).While there was no difference in the other 2 dimensions of self consistency. The predictors of self consistency and congruence included Duration of dialysis, education level, sense of meaning of life, and experiential avoidance of patients,and these explained 55.40% of the total variance. Conclusions Promoting sense of meaning of life and lower experiential avoidance may help to improve self consistency and congruence for patients under maintenance hemodialysis.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of clinical nursing pathway (CNP) in perioperative nursing for breast cancer,especially the instructive important role in the rehabilitative excises postoperation and after discharge.Methods In accordance with the standard for the entry and exit of the CNP,102 patients with breast cancer were randomly divided into the experimental group (50 patients) and the control group (52 patients),the experimental group received the care of clinical nursing pathway and the control group received the traditional care.The effect of clinical nursing pathway on the following aspects such as the level of mastering knowledge about hospitalization,self-care ability after discharge,the degree of satisfaction about nursing were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the level of mastering knowledge about hospitalization and self-care ability after discharge in the experimental group were significantly better,the degree of satisfaction about nursing reached 98.92%,which was higher than that of the experimental group.Conclusions Application of the full care model with CNP demonstrated good effect on the perioperative nursing for breast cancer,it encourages patients to do the limb functional training,promotes the recovery of disease,and then shortens hospital stay and saves hospital costs.
ABSTRACT
An statistical analysis of aorta-septal angle(AS angle) between anterior wall of aorta and ventricular septum was taken,AS angle was measured fromthe right ventricle with long-axis, two-dimensional echocardiongram of the left ventricle in 227 consecutive cases of patients with cardiovascular diseases and 80 healthy adults since 1985. It was found that AS angle for normal adults at the end of systoie(ES) and the end of diastole(ED) being 118.50?? 7.70? and 110.60??8.23?; the difference between ES and ED was 7.89??4.51?. In patients with overburdening of left ventricular volume and resistance of coronary artery disease, car-diomycpathy and hypertension , AS angles were amaller,and in patients with overburdening of right ventricular pressure of rheumatic mitral stenosis, AS angles were larger than healthy adults. The difference between ES and ED was smaller than normal for all patients. It was also found that in patients with heartdisease AS angle tends to be smaller or larger before the appearance of abnormality of the left ventricular cavity. Our data suggested that AS angle variance might afford some clinical significance of diagnosis
