RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the characteristics of cognitive frailty and its influencing factors in older patients with chronic heart failure.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 300 older patients hospitalized for chronic heart failure in a tertiary hospital in Shandong Province between September 2021 and September 2022 were selected.A general information questionnaire, the mini-nutritional assessment scale-short form(MNA-SF), the athens insomnia scale(AIS), the ulca loneliness scale, the geriatric depression scale-5 item version(GDS-5), and the social support rating scale(SSRS)were used for assessment and influencing factors were identified by univariate and Logistic regression analysis.Results:Among 300 older patients with chronic heart failure, the prevalence of cognitive frailty was 75.3%(226 cases). Logistic regression analysis showed that age between 70-79 years( OR=0.543, 95% CI: 0.299-0.987), education level( OR=3.644, 95% CI: 1.780-7.461), weekly intellectual activity( OR=2.168, 95% CI: 1.082-4.334)and loneliness( OR=1.101, 95% CI: 1.032-1.175)were factors influencing cognitive frailty in older patients with chronic heart failure. Conclusions:The prevalence of cognitive frailty in older patients with chronic heart failure is high, and age, education level, weekly intellectual activity and loneliness are influencing factors, with education level having the greatest impact on older patients with chronic heart failure.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the mediating roles of family resilience and perceived social support between fear of progression and quality of life in patients with adult pulmonary hypertension, so as to provide guidance for grassroots medical staff to deeply understand and improve the long-term quality of life of adult pulmonary hypertension patients.Methods:Using a convenience sampling method, 219 adult pulmonary hypertension patients who attended Qilu Hospital, Shandong University from July 2021 to February 2022 were selected for a cross-sectional study using the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire Abbreviated Version (WHOQOL-BREF), Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), Shortened Chinese version of the Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS-C) and Chinese version of Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF) for investigation. A structural equation model was established to evaluate the mediating effect of family resilience and perceived social support on fear of progression and quality of life.Results:The scores of WHOQOL-BREF, PSSS, FRAS-C, and FoP-Q-SF were (45.85 ± 10.22), 66(56, 75), 94(89, 97) and 39(32, 46) points in adult pulmonary hypertension patients. The total scores of WHOQOL-BREF were negatively correlated with FoP-Q-SF ( r = -0.63, P<0.01), and positively correlated with FRAS-C and PSSS ( r=0.54, 0.46, both P<0.01). Family resilience played a partial mediating role between fear of progression and quality of life, accounting for 13.43% of the total effect. Family resilience and perceived social support played a chain mediating role between fear of progression and quality of life, accounting for 2.71% of the total effect. Conclusions:Family resilience-perceived social support play mediating roles between fear of progression and quality of life, healthcare workers can alleviate fear of progression and improve quality of life by promoting the levels of family resilience and perceived social support of adult pulmonary hypertension parents.
RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate nutritional status in elderly patients with chronic heart failure and to investigate its association with unplanned readmission.Methods:From July 2020 to August 2021, 220 elderly patients hospitalized for chronic heart failure in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University were enrolled in a prospective cohort study. Basic information, laboratory tests and other data of the patients were collected. Nutritional status of the patients was assessed by geriatric nutritional risk index and the patients were divided into groups. Data were analyzed by R4.1.1 and SPSS26.0, survival curves were drawn by Kaplan-Meier method, and the relationship between nutritional status and unplanned readmission in elderly patients with chronic heart failure was analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression.Results:Among 220 elderly patients with chronic heart failure, 59.5%(131/220) were in normal nutrition. There were 40.5%(89/220) in the malnutrition, including 26.8%(59/220) in the mild malnutrition and 13.6%(30/220) in the moderate and severe malnutrition. During the follow-up period of 3 months, 25.9% (57/220) had unplanned readmission. Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the incidence of unplanned readmissions was higher in the moderate and severe malnutrition than in the normal and mild malnutrition, and the difference among them was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that moderate and severe malnutrition was an independent predictor of unplanned readmission in elderly patients with chronic heart failure ( HR=2.064, 95% CI 1.029-4.138, P<0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of malnutrition in elderly patients with chronic heart failure is high. Moderate and severe malnutrition is an independent predictor of unplanned readmission in elderly patients with chronic heart failure. The geriatric nutritional risk index is an effective screening tool and can provide a reference for clinical evaluation of nutritional risk in patients.
RESUMEN
Object:To explore the concept of family resilience of cancer patients through literature review and provide references for future nursing and interventions in family resilience of cancer patients.Method:Related articles selected from CNKI, Wanfang Data, Vip database, PubMed, Web of Science, Medline and EBSCO were analyzed with Walker and Avant′s concept analysis.Result:We understood the application status of family resilience in domestic and foreign literature and explicit the define attributes of concept. Based on this concept, we analyzed the antecedents and outcome of the concept and in finally make a summary about evaluation indicator.Conclusion:Family resilience of cancer patients has itself peculiarity and growing trend. By analyzing this concept, on the one hand it can contribute to develop and understand the concept in the future and on the other hand it can offer a theoretical framework to implement the interventions of family resilience.
