This loads an already loaded primary and secondary care system. The Verslavingskoepel Kempen (VKK) is an initiative to answer this challenge as it aims to integrate the care provided by the zeroth to third-line care around addiction treatment. Zeroth refers to the care and support provided by the human context of the patients, such as family and peers. This extends the integrated care model that is suggested by the WHO. The aim of the dissertation is firstly, to identify the organizational aspects crucial for the success of the network. The Findings show that success is confirmed by participating local communities when highlighting the importance of the intramural connection between their community social services and professionals, hospitals, and experience holders. All interviewees recognize collateral and process leadership with resources emerging from different partners and without hierarchical management. The second aim considers whether success must be attributed to the instrumental organizational aspects of the collaboration or the values of the different caregivers. The Findings show that in this network the organizational aspects and the caregivers’ values are complementary. The third aim is to develop conclusions on the transferability of the network model. This is confirmed;however, the governmental policy is not accompanied by a funding system within the institutionalized remuneration and reimbursement structure. It makes the initiative dependent on the motivation of partner organizations to participate financially, raises doubt about the sustainability of the initiative, and sets conditions for as well as limitations on transferability.展开更多

Methods: A total of 176 patients admitted to the hospital from March 2015 to February 2018 were selected and randomly assigned to an observation group and a control group, with 88 patients each. The control group implemented conventional nursing interventions, and the observation group carried out an integrated extended-care model. The level of glycemic control, quality of life, and daily medication adherence between both groups were compared. Results: The observation group showed significant improvement in the level of glycemic control, and their fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, and glycated hemoglobin levels were significantly lower as compared with those in the study group (P < 0.05). The quality of life of the patients in the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The observation group had a higher compliance score (95.48 ± 7.45) than the control group (81.31 ± 8.72) (t = 8.909, P < 0.05). Conclusion: The integrated extended care model allows patients to receive comprehensive and individualized nursing services after discharge, which improves the effect of drug therapy and the quality of life of patients.展开更多

FICare incorporates psychological, educational, communication, and environmental strategies to support parents to cope with the NICU environment and to prepare them to be able to emotionally, cognitively, and physically care for their infant. FICare has been associated with improved infant feeding, growth, and parent wellbeing and self-efficacy;important mediators for long-term improved infant neurodevelopmental and behavioural outcomes. FICare implementation requires multi-disciplinary commitment, staff motivation, and sufficient time for preparation and readiness for change as professionals relinquish power and control to instead develop collaborative partnerships with parents. Successful FICare implementation and culture change have been applied by neonatal teams internationally, using practical approaches suited to their local environments. Strategies such as parent and staff meetings and relational communication help to break down barriers to change by providing space for the co-creation of knowledge, the negotiation of caregiving roles and the development of trusting relationships. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the vulnerability within programs supporting parental presence in neonatal units and the profound impacts of parent-infant separation. New technologies and digital innovations can help to mitigate these challenges, and support renewed efforts to embed FICare philosophy and practice in neonatal care during the COVID-19 recovery and beyond.展开更多

E...Fostering integration between caregivers in the ambulatory sector involves transforming the institutional, organizational and technical flamework but also redesigning the work performed by health care professionals. Empirical research on the implementation of integrated care highlights professional engagement and commitment as a key success factor during the change process. Although a mismatch of motives during the integration process is often reported only a few studies have explored motivational aspects of health care integration. The aim of this study is to explore motivational factors for health care professionals in order to identify the determinants of attractiveness of integrated forms of care. An online-questionnaire was developed to identify the most important motivational factors for health care professionals and to reflect their perceptions on the attractiveness of interdisciplinary forms of care. The sample includes practicing physicians （general practitioners and specialists）, practicing nurses and non-physician professions （physiotherapists, midwives, speech therapists, occupational therapists）. Findings suggest that health care professionals are highly motivated by intrinsic motivators. Physicians turned out to be the most reluctant group towards integrated care models. Participating in integrated forms of care would challenge working independently which represents a strong motivator. The responses of nurses suggest that they are the most favorable group. Integrated care forms would be attractive offering more possibilities for social relationships, expanding responsibilities and challenging work. Results support the importance of health workforce engagement and participation in planning health care integration.展开更多

Methods: 55 AMI patients admitted to our hospital from November 2019 to November 2020 were selected as the experimental group, and 55 AMI patients admitted to our hospital during the same period were selected as the reference group. The experimental group received integrated emergency care combined with evidence-based nursing, while the control group received outpatient and emergency routine emergency care. The duration of emergency treatment, rescue results, incidence of complications and cardiac function level of patients in two groups under different intervention modes were compared. Results: the duration of OTD, DTN, triage assessment, D2B and hospital stay in the experimental group were shorter than those in the reference group (P < 0.05). The rescue success rate of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the reference group. The death rate, AMI recurrence rate and PCI rate were significantly lower than those in the reference group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05).The incidence of complications in the experimental group was 21.82%, significantly lower than that in the control group (50.91%, P < 0.05). Conclusion: through evidence-based nursing emergency identify first aid problem and solve to optimize the integration of inside and outside hospital emergency first aid process, which can effectively shorten the hospitalization time and start time for PCI treatment after admission, triage assessment and D2B time, thus improve rescue success rate, reduce recurrence AMI, again PCI rate and incidence of complications. It plays a positive role in reducing the case fatality rate.展开更多

文摘‘Neurodevelopmental disorders’comprise a group of congenital or acquired longterm conditions that are attributed to disturbance of the brain and or neuromuscular system and create functional limitations,including autism spectrum disorder,attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder,tic disorder/Tourette’s syndrome,developmental language disorders and intellectual disability.Cerebral palsy and epilepsy are often associated with these conditions within the broader framework of paediatric neurodisability.Co-occurrence with each other and with other mental health disorders including anxiety and mood disorders and behavioural disturbance is often the norm.Together these are referred to as neurodevelopmental,emotional,behavioural,and intellectual disorders(NDEBIDs)in this paper.Varying prevalence rates for NDEBID have been reported in developed countries,up to 15%,based on varying methodologies and definitions.NDEBIDs are commonly managed by either child health paediatricians or child/adolescent mental health(CAMH)professionals,working within multidisciplinary teams alongside social care,education,allied healthcare practitioners and voluntary sector.Fragmented services are common problems for children and young people with multi-morbidity,and often complicated by subthreshold diagnoses.Despite repeated reviews,limited consensus among clinicians about classification of the various NDEBIDs may hamper service improvement based upon research.The recently developed“Mental,Behavioural and Neurodevelopmental disorder”chapter of the International Classification of Diseases-11 offers a way forward.In this narrative review we search the extant literature and discussed a brief overview of the aetiology and prevalence of NDEBID,enumerate common problems associated with current classification systems and provide recommendations for a more integrated approach to the nosology and clinical care of these related conditions.
文摘Addiction is recognised as one of the chronic illnesses, often leading to medical, psychological, economic, and social problems, making multi-dimensional care for these people within the existing system a challenge. This loads an already loaded primary and secondary care system. The Verslavingskoepel Kempen (VKK) is an initiative to answer this challenge as it aims to integrate the care provided by the zeroth to third-line care around addiction treatment. Zeroth refers to the care and support provided by the human context of the patients, such as family and peers. This extends the integrated care model that is suggested by the WHO. The aim of the dissertation is firstly, to identify the organizational aspects crucial for the success of the network. The Findings show that success is confirmed by participating local communities when highlighting the importance of the intramural connection between their community social services and professionals, hospitals, and experience holders. All interviewees recognize collateral and process leadership with resources emerging from different partners and without hierarchical management. The second aim considers whether success must be attributed to the instrumental organizational aspects of the collaboration or the values of the different caregivers. The Findings show that in this network the organizational aspects and the caregivers’ values are complementary. The third aim is to develop conclusions on the transferability of the network model. This is confirmed;however, the governmental policy is not accompanied by a funding system within the institutionalized remuneration and reimbursement structure. It makes the initiative dependent on the motivation of partner organizations to participate financially, raises doubt about the sustainability of the initiative, and sets conditions for as well as limitations on transferability.

The Findings show that in this network the organizational aspects and the caregivers’ values are complementary. The third aim is to develop conclusions on the transferability of the network model. This is confirmed;however, the governmental policy is not accompanied by a funding system within the institutionalized remuneration and reimbursement structure. It makes the initiative dependent on the motivation of partner organizations to participate financially, raises doubt about the sustainability of the initiative, and sets conditions for as well as limitations on transferability.
文摘Objective:To analyze the nursing effect of psychological resilience support combined with midwife-integrated full-course care on primiparous women.Methods:A total of 66 primiparous women who were admitted to the hospital for delivery from April 2022 to April 2024 were selected,all of whom underwent vaginal delivery.They were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table.The combined group received integrated full-course care from midwives under the premise of psychological resilience support,while the conventional group only received routine care.The nursing effects were compared between the two groups.Results:The breastfeeding rate of the combined group was higher than that of the conventional group at different time points after delivery,the postpartum complication rate was lower than that of the conventional group,the psychological resilience scores were higher than those of the conventional group at different stages of labor,and the nursing satisfaction was higher than that of the conventional group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Under the premise of psychological resilience support,integrated full-course care implemented by midwives can improve the breastfeeding rate,actively prevent postpartum complications,significantly improve psychological resilience,and achieve better nursing satisfaction.
文摘Objective: To analyze the impact of an integrated extended care model on improving the quality of life of elderly patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Methods: A total of 176 patients admitted to the hospital from March 2015 to February 2018 were selected and randomly assigned to an observation group and a control group, with 88 patients each. The control group implemented conventional nursing interventions, and the observation group carried out an integrated extended-care model. The level of glycemic control, quality of life, and daily medication adherence between both groups were compared. Results: The observation group showed significant improvement in the level of glycemic control, and their fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, and glycated hemoglobin levels were significantly lower as compared with those in the study group (P < 0.05). The quality of life of the patients in the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The observation group had a higher compliance score (95.48 ± 7.45) than the control group (81.31 ± 8.72) (t = 8.909, P < 0.05). Conclusion: The integrated extended care model allows patients to receive comprehensive and individualized nursing services after discharge, which improves the effect of drug therapy and the quality of life of patients.
文摘Objective:To explore the application effect of the care of patients with inguinal hernia surgery,medical and nursing integration model with a view to providing help for the optimization of clinical surgical care program.Methods:Seventy-eight inguinal hernia patients who underwent surgical treatment in a hospital during the period of December 2023 to November 2024 were selected and divided into a control group and a study group,each with 39 cases,using the mean score method.The control group was given the usual clinical surgical care model,and the observation group was given the medical and nursing integration model,and the nursing effects of the two groups were compared.Results:The postoperative pain level score of patients in the observation group(2.23±0.52)was lower than that of the control group(3.86±1.02);the gastrointestinal recovery time of patients in the observation group(23.12±4.06h),and the time to get out of bed(15.42±4.19d)were shorter than that of the control group(29.53±3.47 h)and(20.85±3.08 d),and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);postoperative sleep efficiency score(the observation group 5.12±1.14),sleep disorder score(6.42±1.29),time to sleep score(7.56±1.57),and daytime function score(6.25±1.19)in were significantly lower than those in the control group[(7.46±1.29),(8.63±1.41),(10.37±1.38),and(8.49±1.24),respectively],with the differences being statistically significant(P<0.05).;the incidence of complications such as urinary retention,local hematoma,and incision infection during the treatment period of the patients in the observation group(2.56%)was significantly lower than that of the control group(20.51%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);in the observation group,the patient care satisfaction(97.44%)was significantly higher than that of the control group(76.92%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:The integrated model of medical care has significant advantages in the care of patients undergoing inguinal hernia surgery,which can effectively alleviate postoperative pain,shorten the gastrointestinal recovery time and the time to get out of bed,and at the same time significantly improve the quality of patient’s sleep,and reduce the risk of complications such as urinary retention,local hematomas,and incisional infections,to obtain a higher degree of satisfaction from patients,and it is recommended that it should be popularized and applied in other medical departments.

文摘Family integrated care (FICare) is a collaborative model of neonatal care which aims to address the negative impacts of the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) environment by involving parents as equal partners, minimizing separation, and supporting parent-infant closeness. FICare incorporates psychological, educational, communication, and environmental strategies to support parents to cope with the NICU environment and to prepare them to be able to emotionally, cognitively, and physically care for their infant. FICare has been associated with improved infant feeding, growth, and parent wellbeing and self-efficacy;important mediators for long-term improved infant neurodevelopmental and behavioural outcomes. FICare implementation requires multi-disciplinary commitment, staff motivation, and sufficient time for preparation and readiness for change as professionals relinquish power and control to instead develop collaborative partnerships with parents. Successful FICare implementation and culture change have been applied by neonatal teams internationally, using practical approaches suited to their local environments. Strategies such as parent and staff meetings and relational communication help to break down barriers to change by providing space for the co-creation of knowledge, the negotiation of caregiving roles and the development of trusting relationships. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the vulnerability within programs supporting parental presence in neonatal units and the profound impacts of parent-infant separation. New technologies and digital innovations can help to mitigate these challenges, and support renewed efforts to embed FICare philosophy and practice in neonatal care during the COVID-19 recovery and beyond.

文摘Fostering integration between caregivers in the ambulatory sector involves transforming the institutional, organizational and technical flamework but also redesigning the work performed by health care professionals. Empirical research on the implementation of integrated care highlights professional engagement and commitment as a key success factor during the change process. Although a mismatch of motives during the integration process is often reported only a few studies have explored motivational aspects of health care integration. The aim of this study is to explore motivational factors for health care professionals in order to identify the determinants of attractiveness of integrated forms of care. An online-questionnaire was developed to identify the most important motivational factors for health care professionals and to reflect their perceptions on the attractiveness of interdisciplinary forms of care. The sample includes practicing physicians （general practitioners and specialists）, practicing nurses and non-physician professions （physiotherapists, midwives, speech therapists, occupational therapists）. Findings suggest that health care professionals are highly motivated by intrinsic motivators. Physicians turned out to be the most reluctant group towards integrated care models. Participating in integrated forms of care would challenge working independently which represents a strong motivator. The responses of nurses suggest that they are the most favorable group. Integrated care forms would be attractive offering more possibilities for social relationships, expanding responsibilities and challenging work. Results support the importance of health workforce engagement and participation in planning health care integration.
文摘BACKGROUND The concept of positive health(PH)supports an integrated approach for patients by taking into account six dimensions of health.This approach is especially relevant for patients with chronic disorders.Chronic gastrointestinal and hepatopancreatico-biliary(GI-HPB)disorders are among the top-6 of the most prevalent chronically affected organ systems.The impact of chronic GI-HPB disorders on individuals may be disproportionally high because:(1)The affected organ system frequently contributes to a malnourished state;and(2)persons with chronic GIHPB disorders are often younger than persons with chronic diseases in other organ systems.AIM To describe and quantify the dimensions of PH in patients with chronic GI-HPB disorders.METHODS Prospective,observational questionnaire study performed between 2019 and 2021 in 235 patients with a chronic GIHPB disorder attending the Outpatient Department of the Maastricht University Medical Center.Validated questionnaires and data from patient files were used to quantify the six dimensions of PH.Internal consistency was tested with McDonald’s Omega.Zero-order Pearson correlations and t-tests were used to assess associations and differences.A P value<0.05 was considered significant.RESULTS The GI-HPB patients scored significantly worse in all dimensions of PH compared to control data or norm scores from the general population.Regarding quality of life,participation and daily functioning,GI-HPB patients scored in the same range as patients with chronic disorders in other organ systems,but depressive symptoms(in 35%)and malnutrition(in 45%)were more frequent in patients with chronic GI-HPB disorders.Intercorrelation scores between the six dimensions were only very weak to weak,forcing us to quantify each domain separately.CONCLUSION All six dimensions of PH are impaired in the GI-HPB patients.Malnutrition and depressive symptoms are more prevalent compared to patients with chronic disorders in other organ systems.
文摘The reciprocal relationship between mental and physical health is well established.Undiagnosed,untreated,and poorly managed mental health conditions are associated with numerous physical health complications,poor treatment adherence,and decreased quality of life.Despite growing evidence regarding the importance of effectively addressing these conditions in primary care,the rates of identification remain low and follow-up and management by primary care providers has been criticized.The objective of this review was to demonstrate the role of Patient-Centered Medical Home(PCMH)and mental health integration in addressing comprehensive health care needs in primary care patients,and to describe common barriers and facilitators to the implementation of these types of programs.

文摘With the gradual intensification of aging in China,the issue of elderly care has become the primary issue that needs to be urgently solved in society.The construction of a reasonable and scientific integrated medical and care service system can not only efficiently allocate medical resources and services,but also better meet the needs of the elderly.Due to the involvement of multiple disciplines such as architecture,sociology,psychology,and behavioral science in the construction of the system,as well as the restriction of various objective factors such as medical capacity,spatial scale,and operating costs,the government and elderly care institutions have always been unable to find the best solution for how to scientifically and reasonably construct an integrated medical and care service system.This paper is based on Anshan City,Liaoning Province,which has prominent aging issues and distinct characteristics of the elderly population.Through extensive field research in elderly care institutions,and face-to-face communication with personnel from relevant government departments such as the Municipal Commission on Aging,the Civil Affairs Bureau,the Health Commission,the Medical Insurance Bureau,and the Human Resources and Social Security Bureau,it truly understands the problems that arise in the construction of the urban integrated medical and care service system.From three aspects:urban situation,institutional situation and the needs of the elderly,it is proposed to establish a clear departmental linkage mechanism with clear rights and responsibilities,a policy guarantee mechanism tailored to local conditions,a multi-measure operation mechanism,a technology first intelligent response mechanism,a warm and efficient service mechanism for the people,an overall layout mechanism,an evaluation and supervision mechanism for full process control,and a talent supply mechanism of external introduction and internal training.It aims to provide reference for the construction of an integrated medical and care service system in similar cities.
文摘Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of the integrated medical care model combined with psychological intervention in pulmonary tuberculosis patients with lung cancer.Methods:From January to December 2022,60 pulmonary tuberculosis patients with lung cancer admitted to our hospital were selected as the research subjects.Using the random number table method,the patients were divided into two groups,a control group and a study group,with 30 cases in each group.The chest computed tomography(CT)examination results,mental state assessment(including depression scale and anxiety scale)scores,incidence of adverse reactions,treatment effect,and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups.Results:The treatment effect of the patients in the study group was better than that of the patients in the control group(P<0.05);the duration of hospitalization,chest CT examination results,mental state assessment scores,and incidence of adverse reactions of the study group and the control group,were significantly different(P<0.05).Conclusion:The integrated medical care model combined with psychological intervention can effectively improve the treatment effect of pulmonary tuberculosis patients with lung cancer and prevent the occurrence of adverse reactions;thus,it should be promoted in clinical practice.
文摘Objective: the effect of survival rate and complications of integrated emergency care inside and outside the hospital combined with evidence-based nursing for patients with acute myocardial infarction was investigated. Methods: 55 AMI patients admitted to our hospital from November 2019 to November 2020 were selected as the experimental group, and 55 AMI patients admitted to our hospital during the same period were selected as the reference group. The experimental group received integrated emergency care combined with evidence-based nursing, while the control group received outpatient and emergency routine emergency care. The duration of emergency treatment, rescue results, incidence of complications and cardiac function level of patients in two groups under different intervention modes were compared. Results: the duration of OTD, DTN, triage assessment, D2B and hospital stay in the experimental group were shorter than those in the reference group (P < 0.05). The rescue success rate of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the reference group. The death rate, AMI recurrence rate and PCI rate were significantly lower than those in the reference group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05).The incidence of complications in the experimental group was 21.82%, significantly lower than that in the control group (50.91%, P < 0.05). Conclusion: through evidence-based nursing emergency identify first aid problem and solve to optimize the integration of inside and outside hospital emergency first aid process, which can effectively shorten the hospitalization time and start time for PCI treatment after admission, triage assessment and D2B time, thus improve rescue success rate, reduce recurrence AMI, again PCI rate and incidence of complications. It plays a positive role in reducing the case fatality rate.
