RESUMEN

Introduction: Transfer anxiety has effect many critically ill patients in ICU around the world. Nurses must take care of the psychological adjustments that patients and families face when ICU patients transferred to general ward. During this period, basic knowledge, positive attitude, and correct practice are necessary for nurses to address the issue of transfer anxiety and seek to reduce it whenever possible. However, there were few investigations have been performed the knowledge, attitudes, and practice of registered nurses toward ICU patients' transfer anxiety. Aim: The purpose of the paper is to explore the level and influencing factors of knowledge, attitude and practice of registered nurses toward ICU patients' transfer anxiety in China. Methods: From February 1 to March 17, 2023, a cross-sectional study was adopted in China. An electronic questionnaire was used to collect data. Registered nurses' knowledge, attitudes and practice toward ICU patients' transfer anxiety were assessed using The Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Questionnaire for Chinese Registered nurses in ICU regarding the prevention of transfer anxiety. In the end, in this study involved 381 registered nurses from Lanzhou University Second Hospitals in China. SPSS 26.0 for mac, independent T-test, one-way ANOVA test, Scheffe's test, Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression tests were used for data analysis. Results: The scores of total KAP, knowledge, attitude, and practice are 135.21 ± 24.504, 45.58 ± 13.903, 56.94 ± 10.690 and 32.87 ± 6.393 separately. Study results show that there was a statistically significant correlation among the three variables. According to the results of independent t-test or one-way ANOVA test, there is a correlation between gender(P = 0.001), highest educational attainment (P = 0.005) and knowledge; type of department(P = 0.003) and attitude; gender (P = 0.003), marital status (P = 0.002), clinical work experience (P = 0.002), type of department (P = 0.005) and practice. According to the results of linear regression analysis in this study, the variables of gender (P = 0.006), highest educational attainment (P = 0.032), scores of attitudes (P = 0.006), and scores of practice (P = 0.000) were associated with the scores of knowledge; the variables of scores of knowledge (P = 0.004), and scores of practice (P = 0.000) were associated with the scores of attitudes; the variables of scores of knowledge (P = 0.000), and scores of attitudes (P = 0.000) were associated with the scores of practice. Conclusion: The findings of the study emphasize that comprehensive measures of knowledge, attitude and practice should be taken to improve nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding transfer anxiety in intensive care unit patients in order to reduce its adverse effects on ICU patients.

RESUMEN

Photodynamic therapy is now widely used in different oncologic fields. It is feasible for the treatment of early, non-surgical and non-obstructive cancers. Also, in gastroenterology, where it was a few attempts to treat both the premalignant lesion and advanced colorectal cancer. Photodynamic therapy provides a new treatment option for advanced colon cancer patients with severe obstruction and elderly patients whose cardiopulmonary function cannot tolerate surgery, and effective nursing support throughout the treatment is the key to ensure successful treatment. This study reported the effect of whole-course care for colorectal cancer patients undergoing photodynamic therapy in the Department of Surgical Oncology, Lanzhou University Second Hospital, Lanzhou, China.

RESUMEN

AIMS: The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of alexithymia in intensive care unit nurses and determine the associated factors. DESIGN: A multi-center, cross-sectional study. METHODS: In total, 485 nurses in intensive care unit were recruited from 53 hospitals in China. Data collection tools used in the study included demographic characteristics, the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), Emotional Intelligence Scale (EIS), and the 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20). SPSS 25.0 software (Corp., Armonk, NY, USA) was used to preform data analysis. RESULTS: About 43.7% of intensive care unit nurses were classified as alexithymia in the whole sample (males: 50%, females: 43%). The median TAS-20 score was 60 (interquartile range = 9). The study found that alexithymia was significantly associated with marital status, whether living alone, working years, and social support (Adjusted R Squared = 0.194, F = 6.466, p < 0.01), while emotional intelligence was not statistically significant with alexithymia. CONCLUSIONS: Alexithymia is a psychological problem with high incidence in intensive care unit nurses. In this study, being unmarried or divorced, living alone, and having fewer years of work (≤5 years) were associated with a higher risk of alexithymia. Interventions that strengthen social support may also help improve the mental health of ICU nurses.

RESUMEN

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to understand the risk factors that contribute to medical device-related (MDR) nasal mucosal membrane pressure injuries (MM PI) in ICU patients. BACKGROUND: ICU patients require substantial tube-based life support such as oxygen tubes, tracheal intubation and indwelling gastric tubes. As a result, there is an increased risk of PI occurrence; however, few studies have assessed the risk factors associated with nasal mucosal MDR-MMPI in ICU patients. DESIGN: A cross-sectional study design was performed. METHODS: From January 2019 to June 2020, data from 912 patients treated in the ICU of a tertiary first-class a hospital in China were collected. The occurrence of PI of the nasal mucosa was obtained by nasopharyngoscope when replacing the nasal catheter fixation patch every day. The study methods were followed by the STROBE guidelines. RESULTS: The incidence of nasal mucosal MDR-MM PI was 10.9%. The degree of nasal mucosal MM PI was mainly grade 1 (62cases, 62.6%), and no grade 4 were observed. The columella (58 cases, 58.6%) was the most common site of nasal mucosal MM PI followed by the anterior septum (18 cases, 18.2%). A high patient APACHE-Ⅱ score, the disturbance of consciousness, a history of diabetes, days of gastric tube indwelling, hypoproteinemia, fever (T > 37.5℃) and the use of vasoconstrictors were identified as significant influencing factors of nasal MM PI in ICU patients (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS: A high APACHE-Ⅱ score, disturbance of consciousness, history of diabetes, days of gastric tube indwelling, hypoproteinemia, fever (T > 37.5℃) and use of vasoconstrictive drugs were risk factors for nasal mucosal MDR-MM PI in ICU patients. This study informs on the risk factors of nasal mucosal MM PI that will allow medical support staff to carry out key interventional measures to prevent nasal mucosal MM PI. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: This study illustrates the characteristics and risk factors of nasal mucosal pressure injury in intensive care units, potentially contributing to the prevention of the incidence of nasal mucosal MDR-PI in ICU patients.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To critically appraise and quantify the performance studies by employing machine learning (ML) to predict delirium. DESIGN: A systematic review and meta-analysis. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: Articles reporting the use of ML to predict delirium in adult patients were included. Studies were excluded if (1) the primary goal was only the identification of various risk factors for delirium; (2) the full-text article was not found; and (3) the article was published in a language other than English/Chinese. METHODS: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library database, Web of Science, Grey literature, and other relevant databases for the related publications were searched (from inception to December 15, 2021). The data were extracted using a standard checklist, and the risk of bias was assessed through the prediction model risk of bias assessment tool. Meta-analysis with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, sensitivity, and specificity as effect measures, was performed with Metadisc software. Cochran Q and I2 statistics were used to assess the heterogeneity. Meta-regression was performed to determine the potential effect of adjustment for the key covariates. RESULTS: A total of 22 studies were included. Only 4 of 22 studies were quantitatively analyzed. The studies varied widely in reporting about the study participants, features and selection, handling of missing data, sample size calculations, and the intended clinical application of the model. For ML models, the overall pooled area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting delirium was 0.89, sensitivity 0.85 (95% confidence interval 0.84‒0.85), and specificity 0.80 (95% confidence interval 0.81-0.80). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: We found that the ML model showed excellent performance in predicting delirium. This review highlights the potential shortcomings of the current approaches, including low comparability and reproducibility. Finally, we present the various recommendations on how these challenges can be effectively addressed before deploying these models in prospective analyses.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Several factors are associated with the incidence of burnout, including alexithymia, social support, and depression. The relative importance of these three key parameters as mediators of burnout, however, is not well understood. In addition, there have been few studies to date specifically examining the association between alexithymia and burnout among nurses in China. PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship of burnout with alexithymia, social support, and depression across emergency department nurses in China. METHODS: This descriptive, cross-sectional survey was conducted using a convenience sampling methodology to survey nurses responsible for direct emergency care (n = 413) from 18 tertiary hospitals in Western, Eastern, Northern, and Southern China between May 2020 and June 2020. A structural equation modeling approach was then used to assess a hypothetical model wherein alexithymia both directly and indirectly affects burnout among emergency nurses via impacting the incidence of depression and perceived social support. RESULTS: Results supported all driving hypotheses. Alexithymia was positive direct correlated with burnout (ß = 0.35; P < 0.001) and depression (ß = 0.50; P < 0.001), and exhibited a negative direct effect on social support (ß = - 0.14; P = 0.041). Depression was associated with burnout, both directly (ß = 0.24; P < 0.001) and indirectly (ß = 0.15; P < 0.001) through its relationship with social support. Alexithymia was the factor most strongly associated with burnout, and it was able to affect burnout indirectly through depression and social support. CONCLUSIONS: We found that among emergency nurses in China, alexithymia was correlated with burnout, depression, and social support. Alexithymia was the factor most strongly associated with burnout. These data suggest that providing better social support and alleviating alexithymia may decrease rates of burnout among emergency nurses.

RESUMEN

Here, we aimed to build a nomogram model to estimate the probability of nasogastric tube-associated pressure injuries (NTAPIs) in intensive care unit(ICU)patients. This prospective cohort study included 219ICU patients with nasogastric tube between September 2019 and January 2020.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to develop the nomogram model. The resulting nomogram was tested for calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness. Of the included patients, 58 developed NTAPIs, representing an incidence rate of 26.5%. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that the prediction nomogram included C-reactive protein, vasopressor use, albumin level, nasogastric tube duration, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score. The value of these predictors was again confirmed using theLasso regression analysis. Internal validation presented a good discrimination of the nomogram, with an area under the curve value of 0.850, and good calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P = 0.177). The decision curve analysis also demonstrated preferable net benefit along with the threshold probability in the prediction nomogram. The nomogram model can accurately predict the risk factors for NTAPIs, to formulate intervention strategies as early as possible to reduce NTAPI incidence.

RESUMEN

The knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses in intensive care units (ICUs) are determinants for the efficacy of preventing the medical device-related pressure injury (MDRPI). The aim of this study was to determine the level and factors of knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses' ICUs on preventing medical MDRPI in western China. An annual cross-sectional study was conducted in hospitals of western China from May 2020 to September 2020. Nurses' knowledge and attitudes were assessed using Clinical Nurses Prevention MDRPI of Critically Ill Patients for the Knowledge, Attitude, Practice Assessment Scale. SPSS software version 25.0 and independent t-test, Chi-square, Fisher exact, one-way analysis of variance, and multiple linear regression tests were used for data analysis. A total of 1002 nurses in ICUs from 37 hospitals in Gansu Province, China, participated in this study. The scores of overall KAP, knowledge, attitudes, and practice were 149.17 ± 24.62, 53.83 ± 12.23, 37.24 ± 6.35 and 58.10 ± 9.83, respectively. There was a positive and significant relationship between three variables. Findings revealed that nurses' knowledge score in the Tertiary hospital was higher than scores of other hospitals as 3.840 units. Moreover, the knowledge score and practice score of nurses with bachelor's degree or above were higher than other nurses and are 0.978 and 1.106 units, respectively. Based on the findings, practice of nurses increased by 0.992 units, with a 1-year increase in work experience of nurses in the ICU. The levels of knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurse in ICUs on preventing MDRPI were acceptable. The findings of the study highlight that a comprehensive approach should be conducted for raising the level of knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses' ICUs on preventing medical MDRPI, as well as improving the quality of care for critically ill patients.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Suicidality is common in patients with migraine. Here, we performed a systematic review and estimated the prevalence of suicidal ideation (SI) and suicide attempt (SA) in patients with migraine. METHODS: We searched Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane database library, CINAHL, and PsycINFO for relevant publications. A random-effects model was used to pool the estimates of the prevalence of SI and SA, which were also stratified by the geographical location of the research institutions from the studies included in this meta-analysis. RESULTS: Fifteen studies involving 2,247,648 participants with migraine were selected. Pooled prevalence estimates of SI and SA were 15.5% [95% confidence interval (CI) 10.4-21.3%] and 3.9% (95% CI 0.9-8.8%), respectively, and the prevalence of SI was higher in Asian countries (21.5%, 95%CI 16.8-26.6%) compared with non-Asian countries (11.0%, 95%CI 6.1-17.2%). Measures of heterogeneity between studies were high for all outcomes (I2 = 89-100%), indicating that the substantial between-study heterogeneity in estimated proportions was not attributed to sampling error. The leave-one-out analysis showed that no single study significantly affected the final pooled results. CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis indicated a high prevalence of SI and SA in migraine patients. Thus, it is necessary to design targeted preventive measures for the management of migraine-related suicide.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of Percu Twist (PT) tracheostomy comparing with that of operative tracheostomy (OT) in intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS: Related data were retrieved from CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed, EMBASE, CENTRAL, and Web of Science from the time of their establishment to May 15th 2014, and the data of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) concerning PT and OT were selected. The risk of bias assessment and data extraction were performed by two independent reviewers. Meta analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.2 software. RESULTS: A total of 12 RCTs were identified, and 893 patients in ICU were involved. The results of Meta-analysis showed that PT could significantly shorten the operation time [mean difference (MD)=-15.11, 95% confidence interval (95% CI)=-17.14 to -13.07, P<0.000 01], reduce the volume of blood loss (MD=-17.59, 95% CI=-21.90 to -13.28, P<0.000 01), reduce the size of incision (MD=-2.20, 95% CI=-2.57 to -1.82, P<0.000 01), shor ten the time of healing (MD=-3.60, 95% CI=-4.15 to -3.05, P<0.000 01), and reduce complications such as infection of the wound [odds ratio (OR)=0.20, 95%CI=0.10-0.44, P<0.000 1] and cutaneous emphysema/mediastinal emphysema (OR=0.22, 95% CI=0.10-0.47, P<0.000 1) compared with OT group. The funnel plot suggested that publication bias might be found among 12 researches. CONCLUSIONS: PT was shown to be more effective than OT in ICU with lower incidence of complications. As number of RCT cases is still small with unsatis factory quality, further clinical use is warranted for a better assessment.
