ABSTRACT

Objective To explore latent class of psychological distress among the elderly with multiple chronic conditions in the community and to analyze differences in demographic and alexithymia characteristics across class.Methods A total of 685 urban and rural elderly with chronic disease co-morbidities in 6 prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu Province were selected for the study using the General Information Questionnaire,the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scales-21,and the Toronto Alexithymia scale from November 2022 to March 2023 using a convenience sampling method.Results A total of 662 older adults with multiple chronic conditions were finally investigated with a total psychological distress score 30.00(16.00,52.00).Psychological distress manifested itself in 4 different potential categories named"stress-depressive"(19.9%),"low distress"(26.0%),"stress-anxiety"(23.4%),and"overall high distress"(30.7%).The comparison of the different psychological distress categories with respect to age group,marital status,residential status,financial stress of illness,acute events within 1 year,and self-perceived health status showed statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The comparison of alexithymia scores for the 4 potential categories showed statistically significant differences(F=136.544,P<0.001).Conclusion Psychological distress in older adults with multiple chronic diseases has distinct categorical features,and alexithymia varies across different categories of psychological distress.Healthcare professionals can adopt targeted interventions according to different categories of chronic disease co-morbidities in order to reduce their psychological distress,and at the same time they should focus on older adults with the alexithymia of"stress-depressive"and"overall high distress".

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the resilience level and self-management status of patients with type 2 diabetes and analyze the mediating effect of mindfulness level between the resilience and self-management behavior.Methods:Totally 219 patients with type 2 diabetes from December 2019 to April 2020 were selected as the research subjects.The general information questionnaire, Mindful Attention Awareness Scale, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities were used to investigate all patients.SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis.Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship among the variables, and multiple linear stepwise regression analysis was used to analyze the mediating effect.Results:The correlation analysis showed that resilience(45.0 (40.0, 50.0)) was positively related to self-management(14.0 (9.0, 22.0)) ( r=0.876, P<0.05), and mindfulness(46.0 (40.0, 57.0)) ( r=0.838, P<0.05). Mindfulness was positively related to self-management( r=0.821, P<0.05). The mediating effect test showed that mindfulness played a part of mediating role between resilience and self-management, with the mediation effect of 0.56, accounted for 69.80% of the total effect. Conclusion:The variables of mindfulness, mental resilience and self-management behavior in type 2 diabetic patients are positively correlated with each other.Mindfulness plays a partial mediating role between mental resilience and self-management behavior.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the caring experiences of family caregivers of patients with enterostomy in different stages based on"Timing It Righ"framework. Method Phenomenological research method was used to conduct an unstructured interview with 40 caregivers of patients in different stages (perioperative period, discharge preparation period, adjustment period and adaptation period).The acquired data were analyzed by Colaizzi phenomenological research method. Result According to the"Timing It right"framework, five themes about nursing experience of caregivers of patients with enterostoma at different stages were extracted: 1) uncertainty of disease and post-traumatic stress disorder at the perioperative period; 2) Re-challenges after subjective initiative adjustment during the discharge preparation period; 3) practice and re-cognition during the adjustment period; 4) post-traumatic growth during the adaptation period.Conclusions The caregiver's experience of an enterostomal patient presents a dynamic process. There are different experiences and needs for inner-heart care in different stages.Family caregivers were with strong information and emotion need at the perioperative period;they were with strong helpless feeling during the dischsrge preparation;they were with information and stoma instrument need in adjustment period;they were with care ability need during adaption period. Nursing staff should provide relevant mental support and professional guidance up to the different stages so as to improve mental health of caregivers of stoma patients and enhance their knowledge and skills on care-giving.
