Objective To construct a framework and relevant evaluation items for evaluating the core competence of clinical nursing teachers. Methods We explored the whole frame of competence structure and established behavior items for evaluating competences with corresponding level-marking standards through theory analysis, literature study, expert consultation and a small sample test. We also investigated 237 nursing managers, teachers, and students from six medical schools in China using a 5-point Likert-type scale. Item analysis and factor analysis were performed to reveal competence construction and connotation, and the evaluation model for core competence of clinical nursing teachers were constructed. Results Content, structure and internal consistency coefficient were checked for validity. Cronbach＇s alpha of the total system was 0. 9109 and of each domain ranged from 0. 6064 to 0. 8474. Results of Split-half Reliability demonstrated that of total system was 0. 8765 and of each domain ranged from 0. 634 2 to 0. 8369. Conclusions The evaluation model for core competence of clinical nursing teachers is composed of three parts： competence domains, behavior items and their corresponding grade standards. Core competence of clinical nursing teachers consist of four domains：leadership ability, problem-solving ability, teaching ability and nursing ability, each of which contains several behavior items and corresponding four grades standards reflecting different abilities.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of comprehensive nursing service in patients with autoimmune encephalitis (AE).Methods32 patients with AE were selected and treated in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2019. There are 16 patients in the observation group and the control group respectively. The observation group received comprehensive nursing service and the control group received routine nursing intervention. Total satisfaction of clinical nursing was compared between the two groups.ResultsCompared with 10 cases (62.50%) in the control group, 15 cases (93.75%) in the observation group had better overall nursing satisfaction, and the difference between the two groups was significant (P<0.05).ConclusionsFor patients with AE, comprehensive nursing service can significantly improve the quality of life of patients, which has clinical application value.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical nursing path of health education in patients with gout. MethodsA total of 220 patients with gout treated in People's Hospital of Jiangyou from September 2010 to November 2011 were randomly divided into observation group and control group with 110 patients in each.After routine health education for the control group and clinical nursing path health education for the observation group,we compared patients'compliance with doctors,gout-related indicators and health education satisfaction degree between the two groups of patients. ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference in compliance with doctors between the two groups before health education (P>0.05).After health education,the score of five single items on compliance with doctors and the total score for patients in the observation group were all significantly improved (P<0.05).For patients in the control group,the scores of each item and the total score were also significantly improved (P<0.05) except the item of regular drug-taking and regular health examination (P>0.05).After health education,all scores and the total score of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionFor health education for gout patients,clinical nursing path is better than routine health education in scores of compliance with doctors,improvements of symptoms,and health education satisfaction degree of the patients.
ObjectiveTo explore the application and effect of clinical nursing pathway based on information-knowledge-attitude-practice (IKPA) theory in percutaneous renal needle biopsy.MethodsThis is a historical control study. A total of 460 patients who underwent percutaneous renal biopsy in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between April and December 2020 were prospectively recruited as the pathway group, and a clinical nursing pathway based on IKAP theory was implemented. By contrast, the data of 617 patients who underwent percutaneous renal biopsy and received routine care in the same hospital between April and December 2019 were retrospectively collected as the control group. The length of hospital stay, hospitalization expenses, the incidences of postoperative complications (macroscopic haematuria, perirenal hematoma, and acute urinary retention), the incidence of postoperative postural hypotension, and the management enrollment rate of chronic kidney disease patients were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe length of hospital stay [median (lower quartile, upper quartile): 8 (7, 11) vs. 8 (7, 12) d] and the hospitalization expenses [median (lower quartile, upper quartile): 7380.50 (6401.86, 8789.21) vs. 8167.00 (6816.50, 10044.50) yuan] were less in the pathway group than those in the control group, the incidences of postoperative macroscopic haematuria (1.52% vs. 6.97%) and perirenal hematoma (2.61% vs. 5.02%) were lower in the pathway group than those in the control group, the management enrollment rate of chronic kidney disease patients was higher in the pathway group than that in the control group (26.09% vs. 6.16%), and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The differences in the incidences of acute urinary retention (8.26% vs. 11.18%) and postoperative postural hypotension (0.00% vs. 0.81%) between the two groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05).ConclusionThe application of clinical nursing pathway in percutaneous renal needle biopsy can effectively reduce the length of hospital stay and hospitalization expenses, and improve the management enrollment rate of chronic kidney disease patients.
ObjectiveTo analyze the influencing factors for postoperative thoracic drainage duration in patients with cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis and clinical nursing strategies. MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients with cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis who underwent surgical treatment in the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Public Health Clinical Center of Chengdu from December 2022 to December 2024. Patients with a drainage time ≤7 days were included in the recovery group, while those with a drainage time >7 days were included in the control group. Data on patients' preoperative Hamilton anxiety and depression scores, perioperative nursing conditions were collected, and factors affecting chest drainage time were analyzed. ResultsA total of 186 patients were included in this study, including 119 males and 67 females, with an average age of (36.10±15.20) years. The average chest drainage tube retention time was (10.59±9.24) days. Preoperative Hamilton anxiety and depression assessments showed that 47.31% (88/186) of patients were anxious, and 31.72% (59/186) were depressed. Multivariate analysis indicated that having a smoking history, undergoing open-chest surgery, prolonged postoperative use of analgesic pumps, preoperative anxiety, and depression were independent risk factors for chest drainage time >7 days (P<0.05); frequent coughing and longer average daily activity time postoperatively were protective factors for chest drainage time >7 days (P<0.05). ConclusionPatients undergoing surgery for pulmonary tuberculosis often experience anxiety and depression preoperatively. In the clinical nursing of patients with cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis, efforts should be made preoperatively to help patients adjust their anxious and depressed emotions, control smoking, and prefer minimally invasive surgery; postoperatively, reducing analgesic duration, increasing cough frequency, promoting effective coughing, and extending average daily activity time can effectively shorten the postoperative chest drainage time, facilitating the rapid recovery of patients after surgery for pulmonary tuberculosis.
Wearable devices, as an important component of digital health, are gradually penetrating into the clinical nursing field. This paper explores the current applications of wearable devices in the field of clinical nursing, with a focus on their significant roles in real-time monitoring of physiological parameters, disease management, functional rehabilitation exercises. Additionally, it analyzes the challenges these devices face, such as the need for standardized development, data security and privacy protection, and cost-benefit analysis. This paper also proposes measures to address these challenges, including enhancing policy formulation, promoting standardization, and fostering technological innovation, with the aim of providing valuable insights for the advancement of high-quality clinical nursing practices.
