ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the influence of blood donors′ demographic characteristics and blood donation service experience on voluntary blood donation motivation. 【Methods】 Using self-made questionnaire, stratified sampling method was used to select blood donors from three urban areas in Zhejiang province for investigation. Independent sample t-test, variance analysis and chi-square test were used to compare the differences of blood donation motivation and blood donation service experience of different blood donors. Spearman correlation analysis and linear regression were used to analyze the correlation between blood donation motivation and blood donation service and the influencing factors of blood donation motivation. 【Results】 There were 705 valid samples. The motivation level of blood donation is higher in married people than that in unmarried people, in those over 27 years old than in those under 26 years old, and in those who donated for ≥3 times than those 1-2 times (P<0.05). The experience of blood donors in blood station staff service, blood donation process and blood donation environment was stronger than that of blood donation sites (P<0.05). Both voluntary motivation and controlled motivation were positively correlated with blood donation service experience (P<0.05). Good experience of blood donors on the distribution of blood donation sites, service of blood station staff and blood donation process was conducive to the improvement of blood donation motivation. 【Conclusion】 Blood donation service experience can influence the autonomous motivation and controlled motivation of blood donors to donate blood again. It is suggested that blood centers should take the test during conducting blood donation publicity and blood donation services.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the application value of quantitative assessment in the pipeline nursing after tracheotomy in elderly critical patients.Methods:A total of 108 elderly critically ill patients admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were treated with tracheotomy and given plumbing care after surgery. According to the random number table method, it was divided into a control group (54 cases) and an observation group (54 cases).The control group received routine nursing, and the observation group received nursing according to the quantitative evaluation results. The tube placement time, ventilator use time, monitoring time, and total hospitalization time were compared between the two groups. The changes of blood oxygen saturation (SpO 2), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and heart rate (HR) were compared on the 1st and 7th days after operation. The incidence of complications was recorded and the patients' satisfaction and quality of life were evaluated. Results:In the observation group, the catheter placement time, ventilator use time, monitoring time, and total hospital stay were (20.35±5.37) days, (9.65±3.53) days, (14.81±3.34) days and (31.29±4.87) days, respectively, compared with the control group (24.91±4.79) days, (11.81±4.02) days, (16.95±3.99) days, (35.97±6.51) days were significantly shortened ( t values were 3.153 to 4.657, P<0.05). SpO 2, DBP, and SBP of the control group were 0.975 2±0.018 3, (79.39±7.41) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and (137.46±7.09) mmHg, respectively, at 1 week after operation, which were all higher than the preoperative 0.953 4±0.015 9 and (75.45± 8.01) mmHg, (134.66±6.61) mmHg ( t values were 6.608, 2.653, 2.123, P<0.05). SpO 2, DBP, and SBP in the observation group were 0.959 1±0.017 2, (76.13±6.94) mmHg, and (134.56±7.33) mmHg, respectively, in the observation group one week after operation, which were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 4.711, 2.360, 2.090, P<0.05).The complication rate in the observation group was 11.11% (6/54), which was significantly lower than the 25.93% (14/54) in the control group ( χ2 value was 3.927, P<0.05). The total score of nursing satisfaction in the observation group was (61.52±8.03) points, which was higher than the (52.11±7.99) points in the control group ( t value was 6.104, P<0.05). Conclusion:Quantitative assessment can shorten the tube placement time, ventilator use time, monitoring time and total hospitalization time of elderly patients with critical tracheotomy, ensure stable postoperative vital signs. It can reduce the complication rate and improve the patients' satisfaction.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the level and latent categories of the training needs of the nursing staff of the social volunteer teams in Jiangsu Province, and to provide basis for the targeted training.Methods:From March to July in 2018, 224 elderly care teachers from 13 social volunteer teams of 100 Red Cross societies in Jiangsu Province were surveyed for the knowledge of the care for the aged and the needs of training by the self-designed questionnaires. A total of 207 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 92.4%. SPSS 21.0 and Latent GOLD 5.1 software were used for description analysis, hierarchical clustering and latent category analysis.Results:The number of answer of "very need" to knowledge and skills among the aged care teachers for the elderly, such as psychological care, elderly volunteer services and recreational activities for the elderly, was 196, 196 and 193, with a proportion of 94.7%, 94.7% and 93.2%, respectively. Cluster analysis showed that training needs could be divided into four aspects: life care knowledge and skills, health care knowledge and skills, psychological care knowledge and skills, and spiritual comfort knowledge and skills. The results of latent category analysis showed that the aged care teachers could be divided into three groups based on their different training needs: high demand group for overall knowledge and skills, partial demand group for overall knowledge and skills, and high demand group for medical care and psychological care knowledge and skills. The corresponding latent probability of the three groups were 80.2%, 13.0%, 6.8%, respectively.Conclusion:The training for the aged care of social volunteer teams should pay attention to the teaching of spiritual comfort knowledge and skills for the elderly. The training program should be oriented to the multi-level and individualized needs of the teachers, so as to meet the needs of the aged care teachers for their own development.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effects of serum from the obesity patients and obesity patients with Diabetic mellitus on toll-like receptor 4/Nuclear factor -κB p65 (TLR/NF-κB) pathway in human THP-1 monocytes and to explore the inflammatory immune response in obesity.@*METHODS@#Peripheral serum was isolated from healthy volunteers (the control group), the obesity patients (Ob group) and the obesity patients with diabetic mellitus (the Ob with DM group), respectively, 20 in each group. THP-1 monocytes were incubated with the serum for 48 h. The monocytes and culture supernatant were collected. The phosphorylation level of NF-κB p65 protein in THP-1 monocytes was evaluated by Western blot as well as immunofluorescence assay. The TLR4 mRNA expression was evaluated by RT-PCR. ELISA was used to measure the monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) levels in the culture supernatant.@*RESULTS@#In the presence of serum, the obesity group and the obesity with diabetic mellitus group showed the up-regulated phosphorylation level of NF-κB p65 protein and TLR4 mRNA expression in THP-1 monocytes compared with the healthy control group (both P<0.05), and the MCP-1 levels in the obesity patients were up-regulated significantly compared with the healthy control group [healthy control group (26.4 ± 3.9) pg/mL, Ob group (45.8 ± 10.0) pg/mL, Ob with DM group (58.0 ± 15.3) pg/mL; P<0.05]. These parameters were further up-regulated in the obesity patients with diabetic mellitus patients.@*CONCLUSION@#The serum from the obesity patients or the obesity patients with diabetes can induce monocyte dysfunction, which might be related to the activation of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT

This paper presented the practice of Zhejiang in introducing the drug zero-profit reform.A comparative analysis was made to the pilot county hospitals regarding their business performance,patients' burden,financial subsidy and medical insurance expenditure.The reform has scored a success as expected with the following outcomes:sharp rise in medical services volume,medical income and financial aid on one hand; drop of the proportion of drug income and changes in the medical income makeup; controlled increase of average cost of outpatient and inpatient care,and significant drop of pharmaceutical costs; increased expenditure yet stable operation of medical insurance funds;proportional increase of medical insurance compensation,with drops of the proportion of both out-ofpocket expenses and visits to doctors out of their county.This reform,however,has such shortcomings as follows:insufficient adjustment toward true costs of medical services,lack of a clear and sustainable financial compensation mechanism,and that of supporting measures.Based on these,the authors call for accelerated payment system reform,dynamic and scientific adjustment of medical service prices,exploration of clear financial compensation methods,optimization of internal management of hospitals,and acceleration of the formation of a medical staff income distribution mechanism.
