ABSTRACT
Objective Due to poor effects of sterilization,low efficiency and inconvenience of field emergency transportation for portable exhaust pressure steam sterilizer,we aimed to design and develop a portable pulse vacuum pressure steam sterilizer in order to effectively improve quality and efficiency of sterilization for sterile medical equipment in disaster and emergency medical treatment.Methods From the beginning of February 2013,we focused on the features of small size,light weight,reliable sterilizing effect and fast speed of sterilization,and conducted series of technology researches,and finally developed portable pulse vacuum pressure steam sterilizer which was suitable for individual carrying or air delivery.Results We performed outdoor sterilization tests for portable vacuum pressure steam sterilizer and portable exhaust pressure steam sterilizer under the same condition.Portable pulse vacuum pressure steam sterilizer achieved a 100％ qualification rate,average sterilization cycle was 28.6min per time,sterilization by weight was 48L/h,average water consumption was 0.4L/boiler,average power consumption was 0.7kw/h per time,and sterilization operation index,maneuverability and transportability were significantly better than those of portable exhaust pressure steam sterilizer.Conclusion The developed 4 portable pulse vacuum pressure steam sterilizer have higher cost performance,and have been successfully applied for medical service training and non-war medical treatment activities in our hospital.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of reflection diary training on nurse's clinical decision-making capability.Methods A total of 489 nurses in our hospital were enrolled in the study for tests of their clinical decision capability between July 2013 and July 2015.Two hundred forty-eight of them were set as the experiment group and two hundred forty-one of them were set as the control group at random.The reflection diary training was applied in the experiment group for one year.Result After intervention,the scores on clinical decision-making ability,clinical thinking,knowledge structure,ability in nurse-patient communication were all significantly higher than those of control group (P＜0.01).Conclusion The reflection diary training can improve nurse's clinical decision-making capability and inspire their clinical thinking about the nursing problems.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the methods and effects of the general resident nurse on duty system,and thereby to play an effective role of skilled nurses to ensure the quality and safety of nursing.Methods Using the management experience of general resident doctors for reference,a general resident nurse on duty system was established.The general resident nurses were strictly selected,trained and examined.At the same time,the management regulations were formulated.Results This practice cultivated a general resident nurse team with well-prepared nursing knowledge,skilled techniques,good capacity to cope with emergency,which could play important roles in the guidance and quality control of clinical nursing.Conclusion The implementation of general resident nurse on duty system can help train the backbone of specialized care,reserve the force of handling emergency and improve the quality of nursing.
