AbstractObjectiveThis paper aims to explore specific effects of out-of-hospital continuing nursing on schizophrenia patients’ health rehabilitation and quality of life, and further improve application and popularization of out-of-hospital continuing nursing.MethodsThe 180 schizophrenia patients discharged from our hospital from March 2014 to March 2016 were selected as the subjects. The patients were divided into two groups according to the randomized double-blind method. Both groups received routine discharge guidance, and the observation group received out-of-hospital continuing nursing on this basis. Questionnaires and scales were used to compare differences of the two groups after discharge from hospital, such as medication compliance, recurrence rate of schizophrenia, awareness of health knowledge and quality of life.ResultsAfter 6 months of nursing for the observation group, complete medication compliance rate was 71.11% (64/90), awareness rate of schizophrenia-related health knowledge was 96.67% (87/90), and recurrence rate was 8.89% (8/90). For the control group, complete medication compliance rate was 45.56% (41/90), awareness rate of schizophrenia-related knowledge was 46.67% (42/90) and the recurrence rate of disease was 26.67% (24/90). Hence, the observation group enjoys significant advantages compared with the control group. Statistical analysis (P <0.05) showed statistical significance; In addition, life quality scores showed that the quality of life of the observation group was obviously better than the control group; the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).ConclusionOut-of-hospital continuing nursing for schizophrenia patients after discharge can effectively improve medication compliance, awareness rate of health knowledge, effectively reduce incidence of schizophrenia and improve the quality of life of patients. Thus, the nursing concept and related methods are worthy of publicity and application in a wider range.

Objective. To explore the effect of continuous nursing care based on the “information-motivation-behavioral skills model” (IMB) in the intervention of patients with aplastic anemia. Methods. A total of 90 patients with aplastic anemia who were admitted to our hospital from June 2019 to January 2021 were included in the study. The patients were divided into an observation group and a control group according to the random number table, with 45 patients in each group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the observation group received continuous nursing care based on IMB on the basis of the control group. Patients were followed up for 3 months, and their health knowledge was assessed with our self-made health knowledge rating scale. Patients’ medication compliance was assessed using the Morisky medication compliance questionnaire. The self-care ability was assessed with the self-made self-care ability scale in our hospital. The comprehensive quality of life assessment questionnaire (GQOLI-74) was used to assess the quality of life of patients. A self-prepared nursing satisfaction questionnaire was used to score patients’ nursing satisfaction. The total effective rate of nursing was evaluated. Results. The awareness scores of basic disease knowledge, medication knowledge, and daily self-care knowledge in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). The scores of medication compliance in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). The self-care abilities such as healthy diet, psychological adjustment, self-care skills, oral care, and perianal care in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). The quality of life scores of patients in the two groups in the 3 months of nursing were higher than those when they were discharged from hospital ( P < 0.05). The GQOLI-74 score of 3 months’ nursing care in the observation group was higher than that in the control group ( P < 0.05). The nursing satisfaction degree of the observation group (97.78%) was higher than that of the control group (82.23%) ( P < 0.05). The total effective rate of nursing care in the observation group (97.78%) was higher than that in the control group (77.78%) ( P < 0.05). Conclusion. IMB-based continuous nursing care can significantly increase the awareness of health knowledge in patients with aplastic anemia, effectively improve medication compliance, significantly enhance self-care ability, and thus, improve the quality of life.

Abstract Objective: To explore the influences of out-hospital intervention based on Heider balance on knowledge, attitude, practice (KAP) and life quality in permanent urostomy patients.Methods: Totally 124 patients underwent permanent urostomy in our hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were included into this study. These patients were divided into the observation group (62 cases) and the control group (62 cases) according to the method of out-hospital intervention. The control group received routine out-hospital intervention, meanwhile the observation group received out-hospital intervention based on Heider balance. The standard-reaching rate of KAP, the score of WHO quality of life-100 (WHOQOL-100) and the complications of urostomy before discharge and at 6 months after discharge were compared in the two groups.Results: Before discharge, there were no significant differences of standard-reaching rate of KAP and WHOQOL-100 score between the two groups (P>0.05). At 6 months after discharge, the standard-reaching rates of the 16 items of KAP (including procedure of pouch replacement, methods of connecting and shutting of pouch, dealing with pouch leakage, skin care of stoma, purchase and storage of pouch, etc.) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group; The scores of more than 10 items of WHOQOL-100 (including energy and fatigue, sleep and rest, positive feelings, thinking, learning, memory and concentration, self-esteem, etc.) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The rate of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, all these above differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion: The out-hospital intervention based on Heider balance can reduce the rate of ostomy complications, improve KAP of urostomy and life quality. These merits make the Heider balance to be an attractive approach in guidance of out-hospital intervention for urostomy patients.

Abstract Context Pain is one of the most common and intolerable symptoms in cancer patients. But cancer pain control is still negative in China. Objectives This paper explores the application of quality control circle in the treatment of cancer pain in inpatients to improve the quality of life of patients with cancer pain. Method Established a quality control circle group to analyze the current status of cancer pain control in inpatients with moderate cancer pain, set goals, formulate corresponding countermeasures and implement and review them in stages. The plan-do-check-act method was cyclically applied. The Brief Pain Inventory was used to evaluate the cancer pain status of patients with cancer pain hospitalized before (January to April 2016) and after (September to December 2016) the implementation of quality control circle activities. Results The pain control effect of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group. The mean (standard deviation) of pain severity and pain interference in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (6.21 [2.86] vs 4.31 [2.25], 10.54 [4.10] vs 7.25 [3.77]). There was significant difference after the implementation of quality control circle (P < 0.01). Conclusion Quality control circle activities are used to manage patients with cancer pain, to improve the situation of pain control and to improve the quality of life of patients. This management tool and method is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
