ObjectiveTo translate the King’s Brief Interstitial Lung Disease (K-BILD) to Chinese, so as to provide an well reliability and validity assessment instrument for health status of patients with interstitial lung disease.MethodsBrislin’s transition model, six expert’s panel and pre-survey were used for initial Chinese version of K-BILD. Items analysis, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), internal consistency reliability and test-retest reliability were used for validity and reliability test with 122 respondents.ResultsTen-item Chinese version of K-BILD were proved to have great psychometric qualities, two factors were extracted by EFA, which could explain 63.35% of the total variance. Furthermore, the CFA demonstrates the fit indices of two-factors mode: χ2/df=0.797, RMSEA=0.000, NFI=0.848, IFI=1.048, CFI=1.000, TLI=1.071. Cronbach’s α and Guttman Split-half were 0.893 and 0.861, respectively. Besides, the test-retest reliability of the scale was 0.805.ConclusionThe Chinese version of K-BILD scale has good validity and reliability, which is applicable for health status assessment in patient with interstitial lung disease.
ObjectiveTo understand the possible influential factors and the effectiveness of interventions for quality of life in breast cancer survivors. MethodThe latest literatures about studies on quality of life in breast cancer survivors were reviewed. ResultsAlthough the cure rate and survival rate of patients with breast cancer had improved, breast cancer as a major stress event, the disease itself and treatment related adverse reactions might cause the fatigue, activity decline, anxiety, depression, and other negative emotions of patients, which seriously affected the quality of life of patients and survival prognosis. The patients’ age, socio-economic background, tumor characteristics, and treatment methods were the factors affecting their quality of life. To a certain extent, meditation, music therapy, and proper physical exercise could improve the quality of life of patients with breast cancer. ConclusionBreast cancer itself and related treatment methods may affect not only the affected organs, but also multiple dimensions of patients’ quality of life, so attention should be paid to improve quality of life in breast cancer survivors, providing with individualized interventions.
ObjectiveTo investigate the health literacy level and its influencing factors among follow-up patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).MethodsFrom March to August 2018, 248 patients from the CKD Follow-up Management Center, West China Hospital, Sichuan University were included. Basic information questionnaire and chronic diseases health literacy scale were used. Analysis of variance and t test were used in univariate analysis, and multiple linear stepwise regression was used in multivariate analysis, to explore the influencing factors of health literacy score.ResultsThe average health literacy score of the 248 CKD patients (97.24±12.22) were in medium to low level. Listed from high to low, the score of each dimension was: ability to obtain information (4.24±0.50), willingness to improve health (4.17±0.66), competence to communicate and interact with others (3.95±0.59), and willingness to support financially (3.41±1.10). The result of multiple linear stepwise regression showed that whether followed up on time, families’ monthly income per capita, and the patients’ age were independent influencing factors of health literacy score (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe health literacy level of follow-up patients with CKD remains to be improved. Medical personnel should pay attention to whether patients with CKD are followed up on time, make targeted intervention, and improve the self-management of patients so as to delay the disease progress of CKD.
Objective To investigate the correlation between the initial arterial blood lactic acid and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ score in trauma patients and its value in prognosis. Methods From August 1st 2015 to July 31st 2016, the clinical data of trauma patients treated in Department of Emergency were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were divided into survival group and death group by observing 28-day prognosis. We compared the relationship between the initial blood lactate level and APACHEⅡ score, and analyzed the relationship between the above indexes and the prognosis of the patients. Results A total of 743 patients were enrolled, with692 in survival group and 51 in death group.The APACHEⅡ score and initial blood lactate level in the survival group [(9.93±4.62) points, (2.02±1.44) mmol/L] were significantly lower than those in the death group [(22.84±7.26) points, (4.60±3.69) mmol/L] with significant differences (t=18.20, 9.77; P<0.01). The APACHEⅡ score and the mortality rate of patients with lactic acid level >4 mmol/L were significantly higher than those of patients with lactic acid of 2-4 mmol/L and <2 mmol/L; the differences were significant (P<0.05). The blood lactate and mortality in patients with APACHEⅡ score >20 were significantly higher than those in the patients with ≤10 and 11-20; the differences were significant (P<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between initial blood lactate level and APACHEⅡ score (r=0.426, P<0.01). Conclusions The initial blood lactate level and APACHEⅡ score of trauma patients are correlated with the severity of injury and mortality. Both of the increase of initial blood lactic acid level and APACHEⅡ score suggest the risk of death in trauma patients.
Objective To understand the current situation of eHealth literacy of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and analyze the influencing factors to improve the eHealth literacy of MHD patients. Methods Using cross-sectional survey method, MHD patients in West China Hospital of Sichuan University were selected as the subjects between February and April 2022. eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS) was used to investigate the status of eHealth literacy, and the influencing factors of MHD patients were analyzed. Results A total of 194 MHD patients were investigated. The total eHEALS score of MHD patients was 24.55±9.14. The results of generalized linear regression showed that education level, medical payment method, age, frequency of internet forums, interest in internet health knowledge search, and Baidu search engine (a common channel for searching disease information online) were the influencing factors of MHD patients’ electronic health literacy. Conclusion The electronic health literacy level of MHD patients is low, so renal medical staff should pay attention to the electronic health literacy of MHD patients and develop targeted interventions to help patients better manage their own health problems.
ObjectiveTo investigate the psychological status and its influencing factors of hospital staff during the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and provide a reference for psychological intervention strategies for hospital staff in public health emergencies.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, we investigated the staff of Mianzhu People’s Hospital through an anonymous questionnaire survey sent through WeChat group from February 13th to 18th, 2020, to analyze the psychological situation and influencing factors of the on-the-job staff. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis.ResultsAmong the 1 115 staff members who met the inclusion criteria, 951 completed the questionnaire, with a response rate of 85.3%. There were 945 valid questionnaires, with an effective response rate of 84.8%. A total of 224 staff members (23.7%) had mental health problems. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the total scores of social support [odds ratio (OR)=0.869, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.805, 0.938), P<0.001] and the total scores of stress coping strategies [OR=0.685, 95%CI (0.607, 0.772), P<0.001] were protective factors of psychological status, while having kids [OR=1.607, 95%CI (1.084, 2.382), P=0.018] and the position being logistic worker [OR=2.229, 95%CI (1.326, 3.746), P=0.002] were risk factors of psychological status.ConclusionsDuring the outbreak of COVID-19, mental health problems emerged among the staff of designated medical treatment hospital. When a public health emergency occurs, hospitals and relevant departments should take psychological intervention measures as soon as possible to ensure the work of epidemic prevention and control.
ObjectiveTo investigate the needs for health education in chronic hepatitis B patients, in order to provide a theoretical basis for taking pertinent nursing intervention. MethodsBetween July and December 2011, self-made questionnaires on the needs for health education were used to investigate 70 in-patients with chronic hepatitis B. Meanwhile, factors associated with the needs of health education such as age, education, and the course of the disease were also analyzed. ResultsThe differences in the needs of health education were statistically significant among patients with different cultures, ages, and courses of disease (P<0.01). The needs of health education were correlated with culture, age and courses of disease. ConclusionThere are some deficiencies in the health education for chronic hepatitis B patients. In clinical practice, health education should be multidimensional and continuous based on the age, education degree and the course of the disease.
