RESUMO
Objective: Nurses working in the operating room face high levels of work stress, leading to an increased prevalence of negative emotions and job burnout. These issues not only affect the well-being of nurses, but may also affect the quality of patient care. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of a special training method based on breathing meditation on negative emotions, job burnout, attention, and caring ability of operating room nurses. Methods: Taking special training time based on breathing meditation training for nurses in the operating room (June 2022) as the dividing point, operating room nurses with routine training from March 2022 to May 2022 were taken as a pre-training group, and operating room nurses who underwent special training of breathing meditation training from June 2022 to August 2022 were enrolled as a post-training group, special training consisted of breathing meditation training for 8 weeks, once a day, 5 days a week. The same group of nurses (n=35) were enrolled before and after training, and 53 patients in each group were included in the two intervention periods for cooperative study. The scores of nurses' negative emotions [Symptom Checklist (SCL-90), Self-Reporting Questionnaire 20 (SRQ-20)], job burnout scores (emotional consumption, depersonalization and personal accomplishment), attention scores (visual attention, auditory attention and audio-visual combination attention) and caring ability (cognition, courage and patience) before and after training and satisfaction of nursing work were compared between the two groups of patients. Results: The data analysis was performed using SPSS 22.0, with chi-squared tests for categorical data, and t-tests (LSD or paired) for continuous data. The scores of SCL-90 and SRQ-20 of nurses in the post-training group were significantly lower than those in the pre-training group (P < .05). The scores of emotional consumption, depersonalization and, personal accomplishment and total score of job burnout of nurses were significantly lower in a post-training group than those in a pre-training group (P < .05). The visual attention, auditory attention, audio-visual combination attention and total attention score of nurses in the post-training group were significantly higher compared with those in a pre-training group (P < .05). The scores of cognition, courage and patience and total score of the caring ability of nurses in the post-training group were significantly higher than those in the pre-training group (P < .05). The satisfaction of nursing work in post-training group (98.11%) was significantly higher than that in the pre-training group (84.91%) (P < .05). The results indicate that the post-training group of nurses experienced significantly lower levels of emotional distress, reduced job burnout, and improved attention and caring abilities compared to the pre-training group. Additionally, their satisfaction with nursing work significantly increased. These findings suggest that the training program had a positive impact on nurses' mental well-being, job performance, and job satisfaction, which is highly relevant for enhancing the quality of patient care in clinical practice. Conclusion: Our findings are consistent with existing literature on the benefits of meditation and mindfulness training in healthcare Settings. These results have practical implications for both operating room nurses and patient care, indicating that breathing meditation training can be used as an effective tool to improve nurses' mental health and work productivity. Although the study sample was limited, these preliminary results provide valuable directions for future research.
RESUMO
Pneumonia caused by Campylobacter rectus is very rare. Herein, we describe the treatment course and experiences of a patient with pneumonia caused by Campylobacter rectus. A 64-year-old woman with intermittent hemoptysis and part lung necrosis indicated by radiography was admitted to our hospital on March 15, 2021. After admission, a CT (Computer tomography)-guided percutaneous lung biopsy was identified as Campylobacter rectus positive by bacterial culture and metagenomic sequencing. The hemoptysis resolved, and the lesions in the right lower lung were gradually absorbed after treatment with anti-Campylobacter rectus drugs. In cases of pneumonia which unresolved by initial therapy and associated with more severe oral hygiene problems, the possibility of infection with oral pathogens (eg, Campylobacter rectus) should be considered. This case suggests that bacterial culture and metagenomic sequencing of the diseased tissue, particularly anaerobic culture, helps to clarify the etiological diagnosis.
