Many advance...Rectal adenocarcinoma is an important cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and key anatomic differences between the rectum and the colon have significant implications for management of rectal cancer. Many advances have been made in the diagnosis and management of rectal cancer. These include clinical staging with imaging studies such as endorectal ultrasound and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging, operative approaches such as transanal endoscopic microsurgery and laparoscopic and robotic assisted proctectomy, as well as refined neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies. For stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ rectal cancers, combined chemoradiotherapy offers the lowest rates of local and distant relapse, and is delivered neoadjuvantly to improve tolerability and optimize surgical outcomes, particularly when sphincter-sparing surgery is an endpoint. The goal in rectal cancer treatment is to optimize diseasefree and overall survival while minimizing the risk of local recurrence and toxicity from both radiation and systemic therapy. Optimal patient outcomes depend on multidisciplinary involvement for tailored therapy. The successful management of rectal cancer requires a multidisciplinary approach, with the involvement of enterostomal nurses, gastroenterologists, medical and radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists and surgeons. The identification of patients who are candidates for combined modality treatment is particularly useful to optimize outcomes. This article provides an overview of the diagnosis, staging and multimodal therapy of patients with rectal cancer for primary care providers.展开更多

Diabetes is a maj...With the rising global prevalence in diabetes, healthcare systems are facing a growing challenge to provide efficient and effective diabetes care management in the face of spiralling treatment costs. Diabetes is a major cause of premature mortality and associated with devastating complications especially if managed poorly. Although diabetes care is improving in England and Wales, recent audit data suggests care remains imperfect with wide geographical variations in quality. Diabetes care is expensive with a sizeable amount of available expenditure used for treating the complications of diabetes. A target driven, long-term, multifactorial intervention in patients with type 2 diabetes has been shown to reduce mortality and morbidity. The alphabet strategy is a novel approach to effective diabetes care provision, aiming to address patient education and empowerment, provide consistent comprehensive care delivered in a timely fashion, and allowing multidisciplinary team work.展开更多

They have been updated according to the appearing new evidences, and the consensuses were reached by the international experts in this field. The four documents include Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use, Selected Practice Recommendations for Contraceptive Use, Decision-making Tool for Family Planning Clients and Providers and The Global Handbook for Family Planning Providers. The first two documents mainly face to the policymakers and programme managers and were treated as the important references for creating the local guideline. The other two documents were developed for the front-line health-care and family planning providers at different levels, which include plenty of essential technical information to help providers improve their ability in service delivery and counselling. China paid great attention to the introduction and application of WHO guidelines. As soon as the newer editions of these documents were available, the Chinese version would be followed. WHO guidelines have been primarily adapted with the newly issued national guideline, The Clinical Practical Skill Guidelines-Family Planning Part, which was established by China Medical Association. At the same time, the WHO guidelines have been introduced to some of the clinicians and family planning providers at different levels. In the future, more special training courses will be introduced to the township level based on the needs of grass-root providers.展开更多

文摘With the aging of China’s population,tumors have become a major disease affecting people’s normal life.In particular,“cancer pain”caused by tumors has a severe impact on tumor patients,not only reducing their quality of life but also exerting negative effects on their physical and mental health and emotions.Therefore,in the clinical care of tumor patients,helping them relieve“cancer pain”and improving the quality and efficiency of medical care services have become important research topics.This paper takes evidence-based nursing as the starting point,analyzes the basic concepts and practical characteristics of evidence-based nursing,and then proposes the application process and effects of evidence-based nursing in cancer pain care for tumor patients.
文摘Objective:Pain management is an integral part of nursing practice.In this respect,angina management can be a serious clinical problem for nurses.The evaluation of pain management based on guidelines is one of the essential components in quality assurance and improvement processes.One of the most necessary steps in this process to improve pain management is to analyze the existing situation.This study aimed to determine the compliance of critical care unit(CCU)nurses’care performance in angina management with evidence-based guidelines(EBGs).Methods:In this observational cross-sectional study,69 nurses working in the CCU departments of public hospitals in Bushehr province participated using the full number method,and their performance was observed 207 times.The data collection tool in this study included a demographic profile form and a 29-item checklist of nurses’performance in angina management.The performance of each nurse was evaluated three times in three different shifts.Descriptive and analytical independent t-tests and Spearman and Pearson correlation were used to analyze the data.SPSS 19 software was used to perform statistical tests.The significance level was considered to be<0.05 in all cases.Results:The findings showed that 85.5%of the participants were female and 14.5%were male,with an average age of 33.87±7.14 years.The average score for performing care functions according to the evidence-based pain management guidelines was 71.42±19.31.The highest(73.60±19.45)and lowest(63.51±28.27)average scores were related to the investigation and evaluation area,respectively.The results showed a significant negative correlation between age and care performance(p<0.03;r=−0.265).Conclusions:The results of this study showed that the average performance score of nurses in angina management based on the guidelines was higher than average.Considering that some items had little compliance,the health system planners are recommended to put the annual training methods to obtain and use the latest guidelines for pain management,especially angina,in the education program of nurses.
文摘Objective:To determine the incidence,risk factors,antibiotic resistance patterns,and outcomes of various nosocomial infections in Intensive Care Unit(ICU)patients.Methods:The present prospective observational study was conducted in the multidisciplinary ICU of a tertiary care hospital for 6 months.Incidence,risk factors,and outcome parameters were calculated using Mann Whitney U test,Chi-square test,and stepwise univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:The overall incidence of nosocomial infections was 23.5%(74/314).Ventilator-associated pneumonia was the most common infection(54.1%,52/96),followed by catheter-related bloodstream infections(22.9%,22/96).Stress ulcer prophylaxis(aOR 7.691,95%CI 2.202-26.860,P=0.001),endotracheal intubation(aOR 3.251,95%CI 1.251-8.420,P=0.015),Foley’s catheter(aOR 11.917,95%CI 1.335-106.410,P=0.027),and ICU stay>7 days(aOR 30.915,95%CI 10.062-94.980,P=0.001)were statistically significant risk factors associated with nosocomial infection in ICU patients.Gram-negative bacteria showed a high degree of resistance to most of antibiotics except colistin and tigecycline.Infected group's mortality was significantly greater than the uninfected group(21.62%vs.5.83%P<0.001)and had considerably longer ICU length of stay[21(12)vs.7(4)days,P<0.001]and duration of mechanical ventilation[20(11)days vs.0(5)days,P<0.001].Conclusions:This study highlights the high incidence rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia,with extensive drug resistance in ICU patients,highlighting the need for an optimized antimicrobial stewardship program to develop effective strategies for the management of nosocomial infections.Multifaceted interventions targeting modifiable risk factors are essential to reduce the occurences of these nosocomial infections in ICU patients.

文摘Rectal adenocarcinoma is an important cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and key anatomic differences between the rectum and the colon have significant implications for management of rectal cancer. Many advances have been made in the diagnosis and management of rectal cancer. These include clinical staging with imaging studies such as endorectal ultrasound and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging, operative approaches such as transanal endoscopic microsurgery and laparoscopic and robotic assisted proctectomy, as well as refined neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies. For stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ rectal cancers, combined chemoradiotherapy offers the lowest rates of local and distant relapse, and is delivered neoadjuvantly to improve tolerability and optimize surgical outcomes, particularly when sphincter-sparing surgery is an endpoint. The goal in rectal cancer treatment is to optimize diseasefree and overall survival while minimizing the risk of local recurrence and toxicity from both radiation and systemic therapy. Optimal patient outcomes depend on multidisciplinary involvement for tailored therapy. The successful management of rectal cancer requires a multidisciplinary approach, with the involvement of enterostomal nurses, gastroenterologists, medical and radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists and surgeons. The identification of patients who are candidates for combined modality treatment is particularly useful to optimize outcomes. This article provides an overview of the diagnosis, staging and multimodal therapy of patients with rectal cancer for primary care providers.
文摘BACKGROUND Although the 2021 Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Enhanced Recovery after Surgery(ERAS)provide recommendations for ERAS in gastrointestinal surgery,the clinical application of standard ERAS nursing models is challenging due to the variety of diseases involved in gastrointestinal surgery and the com-plex factors contributing to patient stress responses.Moreover,stress responses are more severe in older adult patients.Therefore,precision medicine is required to improve the quality of nursing care and promote postoperative recovery in gastrointestinal surgery.and demonstrate nursing benefits through clinical practice.METHODS This randomized clinical trial first established an evidence-based nursing ERAS protocol in older adult patients based on literature related to perioperative nursing measures for gastrointestinal surgery stress response.Next,392 older adult patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery and were admitted to our hospital between December 2021 and June 2023 were categorized into two groups to receive evidence-based(study group)or conventional(control group)ERAS nursing models,respectively.Intraoperative physiological parameters during surgery and postoperative recovery indicators were compared between the groups.RESULTS Among 64 domestic and international studies,the stress responses of older adult patients mainly included emotional anxiety,sleep disorders,gastrointestinal discomfort,physical weakness,pain,and swelling.The appropriate nursing interventions included comprehensive psychological counseling,pre-and postoperative nutritional support,temperature control,pain management,and rehabilitation training.Compared with the control group,the study group showed lower heart rate,mean arterial pressure,blood glucose level,and adrenaline level;shorter duration of drainage tube placement,time to first flatus,time to first ambulation,and postoperative hospital stay;lower anxiety scores on postoperative day 3;and lower incidences of postoperative infection,obstruction,poor wound healing,and gastrointestinal reactions were lower in the study group(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION The evidence-based nursing measures targeting stress responses based on the conventional ERAS nursing model resulted in stable intraoperative physiological parameters during surgery,promoted postoperative recovery,and reduced the incidence of complications.
文摘With the rising global prevalence in diabetes, healthcare systems are facing a growing challenge to provide efficient and effective diabetes care management in the face of spiralling treatment costs. Diabetes is a major cause of premature mortality and associated with devastating complications especially if managed poorly. Although diabetes care is improving in England and Wales, recent audit data suggests care remains imperfect with wide geographical variations in quality. Diabetes care is expensive with a sizeable amount of available expenditure used for treating the complications of diabetes. A target driven, long-term, multifactorial intervention in patients with type 2 diabetes has been shown to reduce mortality and morbidity. The alphabet strategy is a novel approach to effective diabetes care provision, aiming to address patient education and empowerment, provide consistent comprehensive care delivered in a timely fashion, and allowing multidisciplinary team work.

文摘Objectives Evidence-based healthcare contributes to the improvement of healthcare quality and informs healthcare decision-making.The provision of timely high-quality evidence is always required to fulfil the ever-changing needs and expectations of healthcare personnel.This study aimed to assess the needs and expectations of healthcare personnel regarding evidence-based healthcare in China.Methods We conducted a cross-sectional online survey from December 8,2020 to January 15,2021 involving 901 participants across China.Healthcare providers,policy makers,researchers and educators,and full-time postgraduate medical and nursing students working/living in China were eligible to participate.A self-developed questionnaire was used.Results Participants generally agreed that health-related research evidence was beneficial.Evidence-based resources,such as Cochrane resources,were only known or used by about half of the respondents due to difficulties related to availability and accessibility.Various types of resources,topics of evidence,and themes of workshops were of particular interest to most of the participants.Conclusions The dissemination and translation of evidence,provision of more support in evidence availability,offering evidence-based training,and determining the most in-demand research areas have been identified as priority areas of work which could fulfil the needs and expectations of healthcare personnel in China.
文摘The four cornerstones of guidance in technique service of family planning are established by WHO based on high quality evidences. They have been updated according to the appearing new evidences, and the consensuses were reached by the international experts in this field. The four documents include Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use, Selected Practice Recommendations for Contraceptive Use, Decision-making Tool for Family Planning Clients and Providers and The Global Handbook for Family Planning Providers. The first two documents mainly face to the policymakers and programme managers and were treated as the important references for creating the local guideline. The other two documents were developed for the front-line health-care and family planning providers at different levels, which include plenty of essential technical information to help providers improve their ability in service delivery and counselling. China paid great attention to the introduction and application of WHO guidelines. As soon as the newer editions of these documents were available, the Chinese version would be followed. WHO guidelines have been primarily adapted with the newly issued national guideline, The Clinical Practical Skill Guidelines-Family Planning Part, which was established by China Medical Association. At the same time, the WHO guidelines have been introduced to some of the clinicians and family planning providers at different levels. In the future, more special training courses will be introduced to the township level based on the needs of grass-root providers.
