ABSTRACT
Objective To describe the characteristics of nursing competence and self efficacy of new nurses in a tumor hospital and to explore the correlative relationship between them. Methods By convenience sampling method, a total of 303 new nurses who were employed in 2013 to 2015 from a tumor hospital were recruited in the study. A self-designed demographic questionnaire, the nursing competence scale (NCS) and the general self-efficacy scale (GSES) were used. Results The average score of nursing competence of new nurses was (83.80 ± 10.35) points. Among the six dimensions of nursing competence, the interpersonal relation competence had the highest score of (86.74 ± 10.55) points, while the nursing process applying competence had the lowest score of (81.41 ± 11.02) points. The level of nursing competence and each dimensions were positively related with self-efficacy (r=0.443-0.557, P<0.01). Conclusions The level of nursing competence of new nurses in a tumor hospital is good, but the nursing process applying competence, critical patient care competence and the health education competence were still insufficient, so it is necessary to take corresponding measures to improve the overall quality of new nurses. Self efficacy can effectively predict the nursing competence of new nurses. The hospital can improve the nursing competence by intervene the self efficacy of new nurses, in order to improve the clinical nursing quality and promote the development of nursing.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the self efficacy of newly-contracted nurses in a tumor hospital in Guangzhou and to find out the related factors. Methods By convenience, cluster sampling method, 333 newly-contracted nurses from a tumor hospital in Guangzhou were recruited in the study. The general self-efficacy scale (GSES) and a self-designed demographic questionnaire were used to look into their self-efficacy and explore the related factors. Results The average score of self efficacy was (2.67 ± 0.41). The level of self-efficacy was related to education and the type of hospital for internship. Nurse with bachalor degree and graduated from comprehensive hospital had higher self-efficacy. Conclusions The self efficacy of the newly contracted nurses is intermediate. The education level and the type of hospital for internship both influence the level of self efficacy. The special hospitals should strengthen the teaching and training of students and lay stress on developing their capacity to prepare them for the job.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the prophylactic use of antimicrobial agents in the patients undergoing I incision surgery from 2011 to 2013 in a tumor hospital,to explore the the effects of intervention management measure for antibacterial agents using in the perioperative period.Methods The cases of tumor surgical patients of 2011-2013 were selected and divided into the three intervention groups and non-intervention group.The data of medication after three-stage continuous integrated intervention were collected and compared.Results The percentage of antibiotics use was much lower,from 61.73%pre-intervention to 47.03%,26.78%and 24.85%after three stage intervention. The course of preventive medication treatment was significantly decreased from 81h to 53h,33h,21h,respeetively.The reasons of their rationally utilizing antibiotics were significantly improved after intervention management.Conclusion Rational antibiotics utilization can be improved by intervention management during perioperative period of typeⅠinci-sion operations,which can achieve the goal of health department.
