Objective To evaluate anal function in patients with rectal carcinoma after low anastomosis operation. Methods Five hundred and forty-one patients with low rectal carcinoma were followed up for 1-3 years to assess anal function after low or ultra-low Dixon anastomosis. The evaluation was based on Xu Zhong-fa Assessment Criteria of Anal Function, anastomotic position and time-to-operation. Defecation function training and rehabilitation instructions were administered after the operation. Results The evaluation of defecation function showed that in the low Dixon operation group, 75.8%(211/278) scored “excellent”, 11.8%(33/278) scored “good”, 10.1%(28/278) scored “fair” and 2.2%(6/278) scored “poor”. In the ultra-low Dixon operation group, 70.7%(186/263) scored “excellent”, 13.3%(35/263) scored “good”, 10.6% (28/263) scored “fair”, and 5.3%(14/263) scored “poor”. No statistical difference was found between the low and ultra-low Dixon groups in this evaluation (Z= –1.429,P=0.136). However, there was statistical difference in the “awareness of defecation”(Z= –4.610,P=0.000) and “sense of defecation” (Z= –5.252, P=0.000) domains between the two groups. The defecation functions were similar between the low and the ultra-low Dixon operation groups after 6-month post-operation training(Z= –0.550, P=0.582). Conclusions There is no difference in defecation function between low and ultra-low Dixon anastomotic operation patients with rectal carcinoma by nursing.
Objective To explore the characteristics of articles related to Evidence-based Nursing (EBN) and to identify the problems and difficulties encountered by clinical nurses when they were engaged in evidence-based practice in China.Methods We searched for articles published in 6 nursing journals in China from 2000 to early 2006, and classified, investigated and analyzed the retrieved articles. Results Research on EBN has been changing from explaining theories and methods to applying research results in nursing practice. Among articles on clinical application, 90.9% did not describe the methods and search strategy used; 63.6% did not specify the sources of the evidence applied in practice; 93.9% did not describe the methodological quality of the evidence; only 6.1% used the results of systematic reviews or randomized trials to guide clinical practice; and 72.7% did not use effective evaluation methods to identify the nursing outcomes after applying evidences in clinical practice. Conclusions The quality of EBN related articles needs to improve further. Nurses should learn more about the knowledge and skills associated with EBN so as to improve the quality of nursing practice and of academic articles on EBN
Objective To analyze the clinical effect of individualized pain nursing intervention on the pain relieving after ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) . Methods From March to June 2017, a total of 180 ambulatory LC patients were selected and randomly asigned into the control group and the intervention group with 90 cases in each group. Parecoxib sodium (40 mg) was preoperatively administrated half an hour before the surgery to the patients in both of the two groups. The patients in the control group were treated with routine nursing intervention, while the ones in the intervention group were given individualized pain nursing interventions, including regular pain assessment, preoperative pain health guidance, enhanced education for pain related knowledge, and following the nursing theory of enhanced recovery after surgery. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to measure the degree of postoperative pain, and the data of dormant pain were collected. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in VAS one hour after the operation (P>0.05); the VAS scores 2, 6 and 12 hours after the operation gradually decreased in the two groups (P<0.05), and the scores of patients in the intervention group were much lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The time of pain relieving in the intervention group and the control group was (3.25±1.72) and (5.39±2.06) hours, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of dormant pain in the intervention group (12.2%) was lower than that in the control group (33.3%), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Individualized pain nursing interventions can effectively alleviate the postoperative pain and improve the quality of sleep in ambulatory LC patients.
ObjectiveTo explore the current status of nursing researches about catheter-related infections in recent 5 years in China, and provide reference for further research.MethodsThe China National Knowledge Infrastructure database and Wangfang database were selected to search for literature about catheter-related infections published in recent 5 years in 10 nursing journals of Statistic Source, with the terms of " catheter-related bloodstream infection” or " ventilator-associated pneumonia” or " catheter-related urinary tract infection”. Statistical analysis was conducted.ResultsA total of 216 papers were included. The number of papers was not increased year by year. In terms of the object of study, the studies on ventilator-associated pneumonia were the most, accounting for 71.3%. Only 36.5% of the studies had accurate diagnostic criteria. In terms of the type of study, experimental studies were the most (109 articles). The content was concentrated on the best practice intervention studies (149 articles). The data collection methods gave priority to active surveillance/screening, including 113 articles.ConclusionsThe present focused attention is not enough to the researches about catheter-related infections in nursing field, and rigorous design is lacking in published studies. There are only a few nursing studies about catheter-related infections with high quality and high level of evidence. The quantity and quality of nursing researches about catheter-related infections still need to be improved. Nurses should pay more attention to the control and prevention of catheter-related infections, and should improve their research capacity.
Objective To explore the application value of self-made visual teaching aids in gynecological and obstetrical nursing education. Methods A total of 240 nursing students in grade 2009 from Fujian Medical University and Fujian Health College were selected by cluster sampling and divided by simple randomization into 2 groups (the trial group and the control group). Besides the multimedia combined with traditional teaching adopted in both groups, the visual teaching aids for fetal intrauterine condition was also adopted in the trial group rather than the control group. Questionnaire survey and focus group interview were adopted to appraise the satisfactory degree of all nursing students and the teaching effects evaluation of students in the trial group. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in education background, and intelligibility evaluation of theoretical study on both the fetal intrauterine condition and the complications in pregnancy and delivery periods (Pgt;0.05), while the difference was statistically significant in the satisfactory degree between different teaching methods (Plt;0.05). 85.0% of nursing students in the trial group thought that visual model could help them to better understand the complications in pregnancy and delivery periods, and the intrauterine condition, 99.17% of students thought that the teaching effect of visual model was better than traditional teaching, and 95.83% of students considered that visual model was favorable for course study. Conclusion The application of self-made visual teaching aids for fetal intrauterine condition makes gynecological and obstetrical nursing education more visual, facilitates students to better understand fetal intrauterine situation and part of the mechanism of pregnancy complications, arouses students’ learning interests, and lays a theory and practice foundation for follow-up internship, so as to enhance the quality of nursing teaching.
ObjectiveTo discuss clinical characteristics and nursing countermeasure of pregnant/delivery women with tuberculosis. MethodsFrom January 2012 to December 2013, 52 cases of pregnant women complicated with tuberculosis were included. We offered specific nursing according to the psychological counseling, reasonable administration, diet nursing, fever and prevention of hospital infection on the base of their clinical features, and then analyzed the effect. ResultsIn 52 patients who had undergone the tuberculosis and obsterrics and gynecology treatment, 4 puerperal patients died of severe pneumonia and multiple organ failure; in 48 gestational patients with tuberculosis, 23 early-middle term patients accept termination of pregnancy, and in 25 middle-late term patients, 3 had full-term natural labor, 4 underwent full-term cesarean section, 5 had premature labor, and 13 continued the pregnacy. Sixteen neonatus (including 4 given at the other hospitals) had normal results of physical examination without any deformity, in whom 5 had low body weight (body weight less than 2500 g), with negative results of tuberculin test and the result of 3-moth follow-up was normal. Three months after the anti-tuberculosis treatment, the lesion was obviously absorbed in 25 patients and in 23 patients within half of a year. No patients had hospital infection. ConclusionNursing care of pregnant patients with tuberculosis should strengthen the guidance on the patients health education, improve their compliance and self-protection knowledge. Also should strengthen the basic level medical personnel training and improve the ability of early diagnosis of tuberculosis and early treatment to reduce maternal mortality.

ObjectiveTo summarize the nursing experience of vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) technology for deficiency of skin and soft tissue in "4·20" earthquake damage. MethodsWe used VAC to treat 20 patients suffering from deficiency of skin and soft tissue who were injured in "4·20" earthquake (35 wounds) from April 21st to 28th, 2013; and we observed closely the results of nursing for pain and psychological care. ResultsA total of 35 wounds were all cleaned after 5 to 7 days; 20 wounds were healed after VAC treatment; 15 wounds recovered well by covering autogenous split-thickness skin; 20 patients had stable emotion and all left the hospital with the recovery. ConclusionVAC for deficiency of skin and soft tissue caused by "4·20" earthquake damage may obviously decrease the time of wound healing, relieve the pain caused by changing fresh dressing, and reduce the length of stay in the hospital.
