ABSTRACT

Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the underlying causes of catheter rupture in implantable venous assess ports among 4 paediatric patients and to summarise nursing experiences.Methods A total of 319 implantations of venous assess port were admitted in the Department of Paediatric Surgery of our hospital from March 2011 to January 2023,with an incidence rate of catheter fracture at 1.3%(4 cases).The ruptured catheters in all 4 paediatric patients were successfully retrieved via surgery.The reasons for catheter rupture as well as the methods for identification were analysed and summarised.Results In Case 1,a catheter rupture was located at 6 cm from the port and the ruptured catheter was not displaced.In Case 2,a linear crack was observed at 7 cm from the base of port without visible sign of catheter rupture,however,a leakage was observed from the crack when fluid was injected.In Case 3,the location of catheter rupture was identified at 11 cm from the port and again there was no evidence of displacement.However for Case 4,a catheter rupture occurred at just 1 cm away from the base of port,with a displacement along right atrium-right pulmonary artery-right inferior pulmonary artery.The causes of catheter rupture were attributed to frequent and prolonged neck and upper extremity activities in Cases 1,3 and 4,as well as an inappropriate handling of catheter in Case 2.After removal of the catheter,Cases 1,2 and 4 were kept in hospital for treatment of original illnesses,while Case 3 was discharged the day after the removal of catheter.Conclusion Catheter rupture is an extremely serious complication.It is imperative for healthcare personnel to adhere to standardised procedures and maintenance protocols,together with comprehensive health education to both parents and children.Early detection of an abnormality followed by prompt handling is crucial in ensuring the safety usage of an implantable venous assess port in paediatric patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between transformational leadership style and nurses' job satisfaction in emergency department.Method The survey was done among 168 emergency department nurses from 4 first class hospitals in Guangzhou by the demographic information,multifactor leadership questionnaire and Chinese nurses' job satisfaction scale to investigate the status of transformational leadership style perceived by nurses and nurses' job satisfaction in the emergency departments.Results The score of transformational leadership style perceived by the nurses in the emergency department was (50.60±14.40) and jop satisfaction was (79.80±13.30).The transformational leadership style was positively correlated with nurses' job satisfaction (P<0.01).Conclusions The transformational leadership style is middle-high level.The nurses' job satisfaction is at low level,Nursing managers should play an active role in transformational leadership style to enhance nurses' job satisfaction in emergency departments.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the main risk factors influencing the pre-hospital delay of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) for preventing methods.Methods A retrieval was done across the epidemiologic studies on pre-hospital delay of AIS patients during 2004 to 2015 using the key words of ischemic stroke,prehospital delay,treatment delay.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,the literature was collected and the literature quality was assessed.The data were extracted for meta-analysis by RevMan software.Results Sixteen epidemiologic studies were included.Totally,there were 2,966 cases of prehospital delay and 2,468 cases of non-delay.The pooled OR values and 95% CI by multivariate analysis were as follows:the degree of awareness of stroke was 0.5 (0.3,0.82),emergency medical service (EMS) was 0.49 (0.29,0.85),National Institute of Health Stroke scale (NHISS) score 0.58 (0.36,0.95),outpatient visit as first visit 4.28 (1.44,12.74),distance 0.76 (0.61,0.95),medical history of ischemic stroke 0.37 (0.18,0.79) (with significant differences in OR value,P<0.05).Conclusions The protective factors for pre-hospital delay of acute ischemic stroke patients include:strengthened awareness of stroke,effective EMS,high NHISS score,short distance,medical history of ischemic stroke.The main risk factor is that their outpatient visit is their first visit for medical treatment.Therefore,we need to enhance the health education to the patients and their families about awareness of stroke,improve the use of EMS and build complete and efficient green path for the stroke patient.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the relationships among nurses’intent to stay,occupational commitment and managers’ leadership styles in emergency department.Methods A total of 130 nurses in emergency department were recruited by convenience sampling method from three tertiary hospitals in Guangzhou.They were investigated by using Nurses’Intent to Stay Questionnaire, Nurses’Occupational Commitment Questionnaire and Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire(MLQ).Results The score of nurses’ intent to stay and occupational commitment were(20?19±3?74)and(76?16±12?13),respectively;both were at medium levels and occupational commitment,transformational leadership style were positively correlated with nurses’intent to stay(P<0?05).Nurses perceived their managers as transformational leaders more often than transactional leaders.Conclusions Both the current nurses’ intent to stay,occupational commitment were at medium levels.The influential factors of nurses’intent to stay in emergency department included emergency work experience,emotional commitment and normative commitment.In order to increase nurses’retention and stabilize the healthy development of nursing personnel,nurse managers should improve the level of nurses’occupational commitment.
