ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate and compare the attitudes of clinical nurses and nursing managers towards float nurse, and to provide references for the implementation of nurse mobile practice mode in China.Methods:By stratified sampling, the survey was conducted on clinical nurses and nursing managers of 15 tertiary hospitals in 9 prefecture-level cities in Fujian.Results:A total of 9 389 valid questionnaires were recovered, including 525 for nursing managers and 8 864 for clinical nurses. By comparing the attitudes between two groups, it was found that nursing managers who knew more about mobile practice were more willing to practice floating practice, including 50.86% (267/525) heard and inquired, 49.14% (258/525) willing to float, than clinical nurses who paid less attention, including 32.41% (2 873/8 864) heard and inquired, 38.87% (3 445/8 864) willing to float. Multi-factor analysis showed that among nursing managers, those with a bachelor’s degree or above was more willing to float. While among clinical nurses, young, unmarried, side, bachelor degree or above were more willing to float. On the choice of flow mode, nursing managers were inclined to float between hospitals (46.54%, 215/525), but clinical nurses were prone to community float (42.45%, 3 142/8 864). Furthermore, nursing managers had higher requirements on the professional title and seniority of float nurse, and 39.43% (207/525) believe that the professional title should be supervisor, while 81.71% (429/525) thought that length of service as a nurse should be 5 years or more.Conclusion:There are differences between clinical nurses and nursing managers in such aspects as the intention of floating practice, obstacles and guarantee factors, cognition and selection of demanders, and acceptance of practice threshold. The above differences should be fully considered in the trial of the "Internet + Nursing" floating practice mode for nurses.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the drug resistance situation and clinical distribution of multi‐drug resistance Acinetobacter baumannii(MDRAB) ,in order to provide references for clinical treatment and prevention of MDRAB infection .Methods The de‐partments ,types of specimens ,time of infection ,gender and age of patients with Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)infection from Janu‐ary to December 2014 were retrospectively analysed ,and drug resistance rates of MDRAB were analysed as well .Results A total of 123 strains of MDRAB were isolated ,which accounted for 44 .73% of all strains of AB .The antibacterial resistance rates were over 90% for MDRAB against 12 out of 15 common antibacterial agents ,while the antibacterial resistance rate for MDRAB against mi‐nocycline was relatively low(19 .23% ) .Distribution of AB and MDRAB infection concentrated to certain departments ,which shown that intensive care unit(ICU) ,departments of respiratory medicine and neurosurgery were the major departments of infection .The strains of AB and MDRAB isolated from sputum specimens accounted for 84 .00% and 93 .50% respectively .There was no signifi‐cant differences of MDRAB infection among 12 Months in 2014 .There was no statistically significant differences in constituent ratio of MDRAB infection and non‐MDRAB infection between patients in different gender and between patients in different age groups . Conclusion MDRAB strains are seriously resistant to commonly used antibacterial agents ,while minocycline could still be a signifi‐cant antibacterial agent for clinical treatment of MDRAB infection .Strengthening infection management in ICU and departments of respiratory medicine and neurosurgery ,and infection management of respiratory tract and wound could have significance for reduc‐ing the risk of MDRAB infection .
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate risk factors for multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDRAB)infec-tion,so as to provide reference for making preventive and control measures of MDRAB infection.Methods Clinical data of patients with Acinetobacter baumannii (A.baumannii )infection in a hospital between April 2011 and Sep-tember 2012 were surveyed,distribution and specimen sources of A.baumannii and MDRAB were analyzed,and risk factors of MDRAB were assessed.Results Of 236 isolates of A.baumannii,74 (31.36%)were MDRAB .The isolation rate of MDRAB in intensive care unit and neurosurgery department was up to 60.00%(27/45)and 58.06%(18/31)respectively;MDRAB were mainly isolated from wound (45.45%),respiratory tract (34.27%),and urinary tract (17.65%).Univariate analysis revealed that difference in length of hospital stay,use of serum albumin,fiberbronchoscopy, coma days,tracheotomy,use of ventilator,incisional drainage,urinary catheterization,use of carbapenems,and antimicro-bial days in different groups were statistically different (P <0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that tracheotomy(OR95%CI :1.152-7.187),use of ventilator(OR95%CI :1.263 -7.664)were independent risk factors for MDRAB infection.Conclusion Tracheotomy and use of ventilator play an important role in the producing and sprea-ding of MDRAB ,management on drug-resistant bacteria is important in reducing MDRAB infection.
