ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of an empathy intervention program based on 5-step empathetic model(5-SEM)on stress response,anxiety and depression,and sleep quality among patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods The 100 participants were admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from November 2022 to April 2023.According to the admission time,they were divided into two groups,with 50 cases in each group.The patients in the control group received normal care,while those in the observation group underwent an empathy intervention program based on 5-SEM.This program includes the establishment of an empathetic intervention team,comprised of physicians,psychologists,head nurses,and nurses with more than 5 years of work experience and a bachelor's degree or higher.The intervention team,based on searches and collation of relevant literature from databases such as CNKI,Wanfang Data,the National Library of Medicine's PubMed database,and the Dutch medical abstracts EMBase database,is responsible for assessing patient conditions.A final draft of the empathetic intervention plan based on the 5-SEM is then formed by the supervising nurse.nurses in the empathetic intervention team was responsible for implementing the 5-SEM intervention plan.The outcomes were evaluated by Athens insomnia scale(AIS),hospital anxiety and depression scale(HADS),and stress response questionnaire(SRQ).Results After intervention,the scores for sleep quality,anxiety and depression,and stress response in both groups showed a significant decrease compared to pre-intervention[sleep quality scores:control group was 6.74±1.77 vs.12.08±2.94,observation group was 4.84±2.04 vs.11.90±2.80;anxiety scores:control group was 7.14±2.20 vs.8.58±2.38,observation group was 6.06±2.47 vs.8.34±2.03;depression scores:control group was 7.28±2.12 vs.8.72±2.34,observation group was 6.26±2.03 vs.8.82±2.80;physical reaction scores:control group was 17.72±4.29 vs.22.94±3.73,observation group was 16.10±3.19 vs.22.62±3.25;emotional reaction scores:control group was 21.82±2.98 vs.26.80±3.21,observation group was 20.60±2.45 vs.26.32±4.32;behavioral reaction scores:control group was 12.68±1.75 vs.15.46±3.18,observation group was 11.16±1.98 vs.14.90±2.24;stress response scores:control group was 55.40±4.89 vs.69.46±6.28,observation group was 50.98±4.68 vs.68.08±6.18,all P<0.05],post-intervention,the scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(all P<0.05).Conclusion The empathy intervention program based on the 5-SEM could alleviate anxiety,depression,and stress responses among patients with acute cerebral infarction,while also improving sleep quality.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of empathetic nursing combined with solution-focused mode on sleep and psychological stress in patients with hysterectomy.Methods Totally 100 patients who underwent hysterectomy in the Gynecology Department of our hospital from August 2021 to July 2022 were selected.They were numbered according to the order of admission and divided into two groups by random envelope method.The control group was given routine nursing care intervention.The experimental group implemented the empathetic nursing combined with the solution-focused mode.The scores of Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS),Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)and General Self-Efficacy Scale(GSES)were compared between the two groups.Results On the 3rd day after operation,the SAS score and SDS score of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The PSQI score of the experimental group 3 days after operation was significantly higher than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The GSES score of the experimental group 3 days after operation was significantly higher than that of the control group,the difference was significantly different(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of empathetic nursing combined with solution-focused mode in the nursing of patients with hysterectomy can significantly reduce the psychological stress response of the patients,improve the self-efficacy and sleep quality of the patients,and is beneficial to postoperative rehabilitation of the patients.
ABSTRACT
La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo comparar Empatía Médica y el impacto que sobre ella tienen las variables Sexo y Nivel en que se encontraban en la carrera, en dos grupos de estudiantes de Medicina (provenientes de países diferentes). La muestra comprendió a 391 estudiantes de la misma universidad argentina (IUCS Fundación H.A. Barceló), 212 provenientes de Brasil y 179 del entorno local. Se administró una encuesta para datos personales y académicos y la Escala de Empatía Médica de Jefferson. Se compararon ambos grupos en el puntaje total de la escala y en sus 3 (tres) factores y se analizaron las interacciones mediante diseños factoriales. Los resultados evidenciaron que los grupos presentaron diferencias significativas en sus respuestas al Puntaje total de Empatía y en el factor Ponerse en el lugar del otro. Se observaron efectos de interacción de País de procedencia con sexo, pero no con nivel en la carrera(AU)
The objective of this research was to compare Medical Empathy and the impact that the variables Sex and Level in which they are in the career had on it, in two groups of Medicine students (from different countries). The sample included 391 students from the same Argentine university (IUCS Fundación H.A. Barceló), 212 from Brazil and 179 from the local environment. A survey was administered for personal and academic data and the Jefferson Medical Empathy Scale. Both groups were compared in the total score of the scale and in its 3 (three) factors and the interactions were analyzed using factorial designs. The results showed that the groups presented significant differences in their responses to the Total Empathy Score and the factor Putting themselves in the place of the other. Interaction effects of country of origin with sex were observed, but not with career level(AU)

El objetivo del presente trabajo es evaluar la orientación empática, considerando los factores curso y género, en los estudiantes de la carrera de Odontología de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud de la Universidad Latinoamericana de Ciencias y Tecnología (ULACIT) de Costa Rica. Se tomó una muestra de 225 estudiantes pertenecientes al equivalente de los niveles 1ro., 2do., 3ro., 4to. y 5to. de la Carrera de Odontología. Se encuestaron con una herramienta llamada Escala de Empatía para Odontólogos de Jefferson, versión S, durante una semana, un día determinado por nivel. Después de realizar el análisis estadístico se encontró que los años superiores muestran niveles de orientación empática mayores que el resto de los cursos examinados en ambos géneros. Esto se debe al aumento, en la práctica clínica, de los estudiantes al final de la carrera y a la responsabilidad y compromiso que llegan a tener con sus pacientes. Además, en general, la orientación empática es mayor en el género femenino que en el masculino y esta va evolucionando de diferente forma para ambos géneros a lo largo de la carrera(AU)
The aim of the present work is to evaluate the emphatic orientation, considering the gender and course factors, in Odontology students in the Health Sciences Faculty of the Latin American University of Sciences and Technology in Costa Rica. The sample was composed of 225 students from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th levels in Odontology Studies. They were inquired using a tool called The Jefferson Scale of Physician Empathy-Student Version (JSPE-S) during a week, a determined day per level. After carrying out the statistical analysis, it was found that the higher levels show higher levels of empathetic orientation than the rest of the courses examined in both genders. It is due to the increase of the students' clinical practice at the end of the studies and to the responsibility and commitment they achieve with their patients. Also, in general, empathetic orientation is higher in females than in males and it is evolving differently through years of studies(AU)

Resumen Objetivo: Determinar el nivel de orientación empática de los estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad del Norte. Materiales y Métodos: Investigación de tipo descriptiva transversal. La población estaba constituida por 859 estudiantes, de la cual se tomó una muestra de 345 estudiantes voluntarios (niveles: 1°, 2°, 3°, 4° y 5° año), (1°. n = 128, 2º. n = 102, 3°. n = 38, 4°. n = 41, y 5°. n = 36). Se aplicó, en 2012, la versión en español de la Escala de Empatía Médica de Jefferson (EEMJ) para estudiantes de medicina (versión S), validada en México y Chile y adaptada culturalmente a Colombia mediante el método de validación por criterio de jueces, se calculó: promedio, desviación y se aplicó análisis de varianza bifactorial para diferencia de medias y evaluar interacción entre las variables estudiadas. Resultados: La orientación empática presentó valores ubicados por encima del valor central del rango de la escala que oscila entre 20 y 140. No se encontraron diferencias significativas por género ni por año en las puntuaciones. Conclusiones: Los promedios de orientación empática presentaron tendencia casi constante con fluctuaciones no significativas. Sería de gran valor investigar otras variables que pueden afectar la empatía.
Abstract Objective: To determine the level of empathic orientation of medical students at the University of the North (Barranquilla, Colombia). Materials and Methods: This study is a descriptive transversal research. The population consisted of 859 students, and 345 students of the Medicine School of North University who belonged to 1° (n= 128), 2° (n= 102), 3° (n=38), 4° (n=41) and 5° (n= 36) levels participated in the study. The Spanish version of the Scale of Physician Empathy Jefferson (JSPE) for medical students (S version) was applied. This scale approved in Mexico and Chile and culturally adapted in Colombia by the method of validation criteria for judges, was calculated: mean, standard deviation and two-factor analysis of variance applied to assess mean difference and interaction between these variables. Results: There was empathic orientation values located above the central value of the scale range of between 20 and 140. There were no significant differences by gender or year in the ratings. Conclusions: Empathic orientation averages showed almost constant trend fluctuations insignificant. Would be valuable to investigate other variables that may affect empathy.
