ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of peer education on improving compliance of cardiac rehabilitation in patients with coronary heart disease.Methods:Totally 64 patients were randomly divided into two groups, namely, the experimental group and the control group with 32 cases in each group. Patients in the experimental group received routine education, nursing, and rehabilitation, plus the peer education treatment, whereas the control group only received routine treatment. The time lasts for 6 months. The compliance of cardiac rehabilitation and the score of China Questionnaire of Quality of Life in Patients with Cardiovascular Diseases (CQQC) were measured after 1 month, 3month and 6 month.Results:After 1, 3, and 6 months of intervention, the compliance of cardiac rehabilitation in the intervention group increased by 18.75%, 21.37%, and 21.88%, respectively, compared with the control group. After the first and third months of intervention, there was a statistically significant difference in the compliance rate of rehabilitation exercise between the intervention group and the control group ( χ2 values were 18.050, 16.946, respectively, P <0.05), and at the sixth month after intervention, the compliance of the two groups of patients with cardiac rehabilitation was not statistically significant ( χ2 value was 6.489, P> 0.05). After 1, 3, and 6 months of intervention, the quality of life scores of the intervention group were (88.68 ± 6.65), (81.90 ± 6.78), and (76.33 ± 5.90) points, and the quality of life scores of the control group were (84.75 ± 4.72), (75.67 ± 5.88), and (74.71 ± 9.47) points. There was significant difference in the scores of the two groups in the first and third months after the intervention ( t values were 2.235, 2.520, respectively, P<0.05); and in the sixth month after the intervention, the difference in the scores of the two groups wasn`t statistically significant ( t value was 1.049, P >0.05). Conclusion:Peer education can improve the compliance of cardiac rehabilitation and the score of CQQC in patients with coronary heart disease in 3 month, but further research is needed to confirm the long-term effect of peer education.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of Otago exercise program on the elderly′s falls. Methods The relevant randomized controlled trials were searched from PubMed, Web of science, Scopus,CINAHL,Chinese Biomedical Literature Database,China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang database. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria two reviewers screened literature, extracted data and assessed the quality of included studies, using Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Version 5.1.0 independently. Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan5.3. Results Totally 16 randomized controlled trials were included. Meta-analysis showed that Otago exercise program can reduce the incidence of falls(ratio ratio was 0.85,P=0.000 6),improve falls efficacy (standardized mean number difference was 0.67, 0.43, all P<0.05), enhance elderly′ s balance (standardized mean number difference was 0.65,P<0.01)and mobility(mean number difference was-5.46, P=0.000 1),but can′t effectively reduce the incidence of falls related injury(ratio ratio was 0.98,P=0.78). Conclusions Otago exercise program is effective to improve falls efficacy, enhance balance and mobility,reduce the incidence of falls.It is suggested to promote clinical use.
ABSTRACT
Objective To systematically evaluate the optimal dose of early enteral nutrition support in critically ill patients.Methods Systematic search database including PubMed,Web of science,Scopus,CINAHL,CBM,CNKI.RCTs about early enteral nutrition dose selections in critically ill patients were chosen according to include and exclude criteria by two researchers independently.Cochrane system evaluation manual bias risk assessment was used to evaluate quality of literature.RevMan5.3 Meta analysis software was used to analyze the data.Results A total of 1 571 literatures were retrieved and 8 RCT studies were included,2 713 subjects in total.Meta analysis results showed that there were statistically significant differences in mechanical ventilation time,incidence of diarrhea,and utilization rate of gastro dynamic drugs between trophic feeding and full feeding (P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in mortality,length of stay,incidence of nosocomial infections,reflux,vomiting,constipation,etc.(P＞0.05).Conclusions Trophic feeding has familiar effects on mortality,length of hospital stay compared to full feeding,but it can help to shorten ICU mechanical ventilation time,improve the gastrointestinal tolerability.
