Analysis of the current situation and trend of home-based individualized nursing for residents in a certain area in China.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to examine the perception, willingness to engage, and demand of community residents regarding the 'internet + nursing service' in a designated pilot area, aiming to offer insights for the widespread adoption of the 'internet + nursing service' throughout China. METHODS: A survey pertaining to the 'internet + nursing service' was conducted from March to April 2022. The study specifically targeted residents within two sub-districts of a city in the Jiangsu province. The sampling technique employed in this study was stratified random sampling. RESULTS: Out of a total of 400 community residents selected from two sub-districts in this region, 378 provided valid responses, resulting in an effective rate of 94.5%. Within the study cohort, 80 participants (21.16%) demonstrated familiarity with the concept of 'internet + nursing service.' Additionally, 231 participants (61.11%) conveyed their willingness to adopt such services. Regarding service preferences, the primary demands were for health guidance, vital sign monitoring, and basic care. Challenges in implementing the service were attributed to concerns related to medical risks, personal safety for both nurses and patients, and potential breaches of privacy. CONCLUSIONS: Residents in the pilot area exhibited a moderate awareness of the 'internet + nursing service,' with a relatively high willingness to embrace the program. There is a need for further refinement of pertinent laws, widespread dissemination of policies, and enhancements in the quality of nursing services. These measures aim to ensure that a greater number of community residents can avail themselves of improved home-based nursing services.

The application value of the Modified Early Warning Score combined with age and injury site scores in the evaluation of injuries in emergency trauma patients.

Objective: To explore the application value of the Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) combined with age and injury site scores in predicting the criticality of emergency trauma patients. Methods: The traditional MEWS was modified by combining it with age and injury site scores to form a new MEWS combined scoring standard. The clinical data were collected from a total of 372 trauma patients from the emergency department of the Nantong First People's Hospital between June and December 2019. A retrospective analysis was conducted, and the patients were scored using the MEWS combined with age and injury site scores. The patients were grouped according to their prognoses and clinical outcomes. A statistical analysis was conducted based on the ranges of the combined scores, and the results of the combined scores of the different groups were compared. Results: Among the 372 patients, the average score was 3.68 ± 1.25 points in the survival group, 8.33 ± 2.24 points in the death within 24 h group, and 8.38 ± 1.51 points in the death within 30 days of hospitalization group, and the differences were statistically significant (p < 0.05). The average score was 2.74 ± 0.69 points in the outpatient treatment group, 4.19 ± 0.72 points in the emergency stay group, 5.40 ± 0.70 points in the specialist inpatient group, 8.71 ± 2.31 points in the ICU group, and 7.82 ± 1.66 points in the specialist unplanned transfer to ICU group, with the differences between the groups being statistically significant (p < 0.05). The average length of hospital stay for patients with a joint score within the range of 6-8 points was 10.86 ± 2.47 days, with a direct ICU admission rate of 22.00% and an unplanned ICU admission rate of 16.00%. Patients with a joint score >8 points had an average length of hospital stay of 27.05 ± 4.85 days, with a direct ICU admission rate of 66.67% and an unplanned ICU admission rate of 33.33%. Conclusion: Age and injury site are important high-risk indicators for trauma assessment, and using them in combination with the MEWS could improve the assessment of emergency patients with trauma, increasing the accuracy of pre-screening triage and reducing rescue time. Therefore, this joint scoring method might be worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Application of the Modified Basic Life Support Training Model in Improving Community Residents' Rescue Willingness in Nantong City in China.

Objective: This study explores the application and effect of the modified basic life support training in improving the first-aid level and rescue willingness of community residents in China. Methods: A total of 94 residents of a community in Nantong city were selected as the subjects by cluster sampling to receive the modified basic life support (BLS) training. The BLS knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of all recruited subjects were evaluated by a questionnaire before and after training. A skill operation assessment was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the modified BLS training. Results: There were statistically significant differences in the BLS rescue willingness, theory, and skill scores before and after the training (P < 0.01). A total of 93.62% of the residents considered the modified BLS training model easier to learn and acceptable than the traditional model, and 92.55% of them thought the training content and teaching arrangement were reasonable. Conclusion: The modified BLS training model could improve the community residents' rescue willingness and skill mastery rates, enhance their first-aid skills and awareness, reduce the risk of disease transmission to a certain extent, and improve the success rate of prehospital first aid to ensure the safety of rescuers and patients.

Analysis of the Status Quo and Influencing Factors of Community Residents' Awareness of Basic Life Support and Willingness to Attempt Rescue.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate community residents' awareness of basic life support (BLS) and their willingness to attempt rescue. METHODS: From October to December 2020, in the communities of Nantong City, a stratified three-stage random sampling method was adopted to select residents from 12 neighborhood committees over the age of 18 with whom to conduct a cross-sectional questionnaire survey. A self-designed questionnaire was adopted, the contents of which included the general situation of the respondent, knowledge, attitude, and behavior in relation to BLS; the Cronbach's α coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.719. RESULTS: A total of 3000 questionnaires were distributed, of which 2812 were valid, with a valid response rate of 93.73%. Of the 2812 respondents, 41.18% had seen an automatic external defibrillator (AED), 48.83% had experience of' cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and 25.07% of the respondents had experience of' AEDs. When an accident occurred, 50.50% of residents were willing to attempt rescue, 70.80% were willing to attempt rescue under professional guidance, and 71.23% were willing to attempt rescue after learning BLS techniques. Of the residents who were unwilling to attempt rescue, 32.75% were worried about their lack of ability, 27.91% were concerned about legal issues, 14.01% feared infectious diseases, and 10.35% were unwilling to perform mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration. Age, occupation, education level, and whether they had participated in first aid training were the influencing factors. CONCLUSION: Residents in Nantong have less knowledge of BLS, and their knowledge of CPR is better than that of AEDs. Residents have a strong willingness to learn BLS. Measures need to be taken to improve their understanding of BLS and their application skills. Residents have high levels of willingness to attempt rescue, but a certain percentage of residents have concerns. Interventions can be made to target the different reasons.
