Among them, 42 children admitted from January to December 2020 and 42 accompanying staff served as the control group, and 42 children admitted from January to December 2021 and 42 accompanying staff served as the intervention group. The control group adopted the routine perioperative nursing mode, and the intervention group adopted the nurse-led collaborative integrated nursing mode. The anxiety and satisfaction of the caregivers in the two groups, the medical fear, medical compliance and postoperative pain of the children in the two groups, and the incidence of postoperative complications of the children in the two groups were compared. Results:After intervention, the satisfaction score of the intervention group ′s accompanying staff and the score of the patient ′s medical compliance were (96.46 ± 3.27) and (2.93 ± 0.89) points. The control group ′s scores were (85.24 ± 5.71) and (1.75 ± 0.63) points. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=9.52, -8.40, both P<0.05). The anxiety score of the accompanying staff in the intervention group was (44.33 ± 2.43) points, and the medical fear score and postoperative pain score of the patients were (20.76 ± 2.92) and (3.06 ± 0.57) points, respectively. The control group′s scores were (67.11 ± 3.36), (33.58 ± 3.84) and (6.24 ± 0.71) points, respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=23.47, 12.51, 22.66, all P<0.05). The total incidence of postoperative complications in the intervention group was 4.76% (2/42), while in the control group was 52.38% (22/42). The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=23.33, P<0.05). Conclusions:The nurse led collaborative integrated nursing mode has a positive effect on relieving the negative emotions of caregivers and children, improving the satisfaction of hospitalization, improving the quality of care for children, and reducing the incidence of postoperative complications of children.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction: The objective of this study is to explore the impacts of Omaha System-based continuing care on medication compliance, quality of life (QOL), and prognosis of coronary heart disease (CHD) patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 100 CHD patients who were hospitalized and received PCI were selected and divided into the control group and the observation group, 50 patients per group, according to a random number table method. The control group was given routine care, while the observation group was applied Omaha System-based continuing care on the basis of the control group. Results: Follow-up demonstrated that the Morisky-Green score of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.001), indicating that the medication compliance of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.001). The short form-36 (SF-36) scores were notably higher after nursing compared with on admission; SF-36 scores of the observation group were significantly increased than those of the control group (P<0.001). The incidence of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) in the observation group was significantly lower than in the control group (P<0.001). The nursing satisfaction of the observation group was considerably higher than that of the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion: Omaha System-based continuing care could improve the medication compliance and QOL, reduce the incidence of MACE, and benefit the prognosis of CHD patients after PCI.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the efficacy of doctor-nurse co-led care involving education and engagement of patients on improving compliance of patients, and a treat-to-target urate-lowering rate for gout.Methods:Nurses were trained in practice management of gout. Patients diagnosed with gout in the departments of rheumatology and immunology of Anqing Municipal Hospital in Anhui Province were prospectively enrolled from January 1 to June 30, 2019. The patients were divided into the continuous-care group and the conventional management group by random number table method. The patients of continuous-care group received telephone follow-up, WeChat tracking and regular face-to-face communication. The patients of conventional management group were told to follow up regularly in the outpatient department, and the nurses did not follow up. Patients were evaluated before intervention and 12 months after intervention. The treat-to-target rate of blood uric acid and the frequency of gout flares were observed.Results:After 12 months of intervention, the patients of serum uric acid concentrations below 360 μmol/L were 92.39% (85/92) in the continuous-care group, and 26.74% (23/86) in the conventional management group. There was significant difference ( χ2 value was 80.282, P<0.001). After 12 months of intervention, the average serum uric acid concentration of patients in the continuous-care group was (301.6±61.4) μmol/L, and that in the conventional management group was (419.0±98.0) μmol/L, both of which were significantly lower than before intervention, continuous-care group (466.1±119.7) μmol/L, conventional management group (477.8±113.1) μmol/L. But the average serum uric acid concentration of patients in the continuous-care group was significantly lower than that in the conventional management group. There was significant difference between them ( t value was 96.678, P<0.001). At the end of 12 months, the patients of uric-acid-lowering therapy increased in both groups. The proportion of patients was 94.56% (87/92) in the continuous-care group, which was significantly higher than that in the conventional management group (58.14%, 50/86), there was significant difference ( χ2 value was 33.260, P<0.001). Conclusions:The mode of continuing nursing combined with specialized physician-led treatment can significantly improve the compliance and the control rate of treat-to-target for gout, and this management method is simple and feasible which provides a new management concept for clinical treatment of gout.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the effect of continuing nursing mode on mental state and the impact of care capacity in mothers of NICU children with very low birth weight.@*Methods@#Based on the theory of continuous care, a continuation nursing program for children with very low birth weight from the day of discharge from the hospital to one month after discharge was used. A randomized controlled trial was conducted on 80 cases of very low birth weight infants admitted to our hospital. The order of discharge was randomly divided into 40 cases in the intervention group and 40 cases in the control group. The control group received routine care and the intervention group used a continuing nursing intervention model. On the day of discharge from the hospital, 1 week after discharge, and 1 month after discharge, the scores of the mothers' psychological status and home care ability were collected.@*Results@#On the day of discharge, there was no significant difference in mental state and home care ability between the two groups (P>0.05). The anxiety, depression and negative coping scores of the intervention group were lower than the control group at 1 week and 1 month after discharge (1 week t value was 2.138, 2.068, 2.532, 1 mouth t value was 2.273, 3.564, 4.417, P<0.05) , and the scores and home care ability were actively coped. Higher than the control group (1week t value was -1.680, -2.970, P<0.05.1 month t value was -3.937, -7.156, P < 0.01). There was an interaction between intervention mode and intervention time 1 (F value was 8.46-64.38, P<0.01). There were significant differences between the two groups at different time and different groups (different time F value was 166.46-269.55, P<0.01; different groups F value was 5.26-13.55, P<0.05).@*Conclusion@#Through continuing nursing intervention for very low birth weight infants after discharge, it can effectively reduce the negative emotions of mothers and improve the positive coping style of mothers, then improve the confidence of caregivers and increase satisfaction so that we can provide a safe and harmonious family environment with premature babies after discharge.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the effects of continued acceptance and commitment therapy intervention on post-traumatic growth of postoperative patients with breast cancer.@*Methods@#According to the hospitalization time, 120 patients with breast cancer were divided into observation group (62 cases) and control group (58 cases). From January to December 2017, 58 patients were used as control group. Regular health education and discharge follow-up were performed. Intervention with the commitment therapy 3 times; 62 patients from January to December 2018 were selected as the observation group. On the basis of the control group, the patient continued to receive and commit the intervention for 3 to 4 times from February to March after discharge. The post-traumatic growth status of patients before, at the time of discharge (after the intervention), at the hospital for 2 months, at the hospital for 3 months, and at the hospital for 6 months was assessed using the Simplified Chinese version of the Post-Treatment Growth Rating Scale (PTGI).@*Results@#There was no significant difference in the post-traumatic growth scores between the two groups (P>0.05). The post-traumatic growth scores of the two groups were 67.02±14.17, 66.93±14.24, which were better than 51.72±11.65, 51.86±11.67 before the intervention (t= 7.634, 7.725, P<0.05). At 3 months and 6 months after discharge, the post-traumatic growth scores of the observation group were (67.12±14.07) and (68.21±14.48), which were significantly better than the control group (54.17±11.64). 54.02±11.12), the difference was statistically significant (t= 7.957, 7.674, P<0.01).@*Conclusion@#Acceptance and commitment therapy intervention during hospitalization can effectively improve post-traumatic growth of postoperative patients with breast cancer. Continued admission and commitment therapy intervention after discharge can provide patients with out-of-hospital continuous care programs to improve post-traumatic growth of postoperative patients with breast cancer. It has a better long-term effect than the control group.

The control group received routine discharge in-struction, while the intervention group received continuing care in addition. The intermittent catheterization compliance, residual urine vol-ume, urinary tract infection and quality of life were assessed at discharge and three months after intervention. Results After intervention, the intermittent catheterization compliance was better in the intervention group than in the control group (χ2=7.500, P=0.006). The residual urine volume significantly decreased in both groups (t>12.040, P4.572, P5.505, P<0.001). Con-clusion Continuing care could improve the intermittent catheterization compliance, reduce the residual urine volume and the urinary tract in-fection rate, and improve the quality of life in patients with neurogenic bladder after discharge.
