Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we investigated the lung function of 103 veterinary assistants and nineteen veterinarians in veterinary practices regarding sensitization, atopy, and asthma. All participants completed a questionnaire. We determined specific IgE, and lung function using spirometry and body plethysmography according to the ATS criteria. The results were compared with the reference values of the Global Lung Initiative (GLI) based on the z-score. Subjects with known, physician-confirmed asthma or regular medication use were excluded, leaving 109 subjects. Results: Spirometry and body plethysmography showed repeatable results without artifacts. The median z-score of the Tiffeneau-index and the maximal mid-expiratory flow (MMEF), parameters for identifying obstructive ventilation limitations, were significantly reduced compared to the norm. Manifest obstructive airway disease was found in 6.3% (n = 2/32) atopic and 9.1% (n = 7/77) non-atopic subjects. The TLC z-score showed a normal median and normal distribution. According to the GLI reference values, 4.6% of these values were below the normal (LLN) limit. The analyses showed a relevant influence of atopy status, sensitization to furry animals, and tobacco smoking on the FEV1/FVC ratio. No significant correlations were found between lung function and occupational characteristics. Conclusion: Manifest obstructive lung disease was found in both symptom-free and symptomatic individuals. The study emphasizes the need for close monitoring of sensitized workers to detect early impairment and limit occupational effects on lung function.展开更多

Methods: Forty female nursing staff working in the hospital from April to June 2023 were selected and were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 20 in each group. For 60 days, the control group used the conventional learning and communication model and the observation group used the medical and nursing roundtable model. The cognitive scores of cardiovascular disease-related knowledge, competency scores, and satisfaction with the learning and communication model before and after the implementation of the model in both groups were compared. Results: After the implementation, the cognitive scores related to cardiovascular disease-related knowledge, competency scores, and satisfaction with the learning and communication model in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The healthcare roundtable model improved the knowledge and competence of cardiovascular internal medicine nursing staff in major diseases, and it is worth popularizing.展开更多

文摘Objective: To analyze the impact of the healthcare roundtable model on the major disease perceptions and competencies of cardiovascular nursing staff. Methods: Forty female nursing staff working in the hospital from April to June 2023 were selected and were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 20 in each group. For 60 days, the control group used the conventional learning and communication model and the observation group used the medical and nursing roundtable model. The cognitive scores of cardiovascular disease-related knowledge, competency scores, and satisfaction with the learning and communication model before and after the implementation of the model in both groups were compared. Results: After the implementation, the cognitive scores related to cardiovascular disease-related knowledge, competency scores, and satisfaction with the learning and communication model in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The healthcare roundtable model improved the knowledge and competence of cardiovascular internal medicine nursing staff in major diseases, and it is worth popularizing.
