ObjectiveVideo electroencephalography (VEEG) monitoring for health education of elderly patients based on a process-based communication model, and explore the impact of this model on the success rate, negative emotions, nursing satisfaction, and active cooperation rate of such patients.MethodsFrom September 2017 to September 2019, 118 patients with suspected epilepsy, encephalitis and other diseases who required VEEG monitoring in Suining Central Hospital were selected for this study (patients aged 61 to 73 years; 54 males and 64 females). Patients were divided into 2 groups using a random number table method, 59 patients in each group.A group received routine nursing, and B group received health education based on the process communication model. The monitoring success rate, negative emotion, active cooperation rate, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe total effective rate in the B group was 86.44%, which was significantly higher than 76.27% in the A group (P<0.05). After nursing intervention, the scores of anxiety and depression in the two groups were significantly decreased, but the decline was greater in the B group (P<0.05). The active cooperation rate and nursing satisfaction of the B group were significantly higher than those of the A group (P<0.05).ConclusionCompared with conventional nursing, health education based on process communication mode can significantly improve the success rate of VEEG monitoring in elderly patients, alleviate the negative emotions of patients, improve the active cooperation rate and nursing satisfaction.
Objective To seek the best evidence on communication between physicians and patients so as to improve the physician-patient relationship in China. Methods We used the key words ‘physician-patient relationship’ and ‘communication’ to identify related systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and then evaluated them with the Overview Quality Assessment Questionnaire (OQAQ) checklist. Results Seventeen studies were included for final evaluation. According to the OQAQ checklist, the score range of the study quality was 3 to 9. 41.29% (7/17) of the included studies scored 7 to 9, 23.5% (4/17) scored 6, and 35.3% (6/17) scored 3 to 5. Factors influencing physician-patient communication primarily included communication targets, time, contents, and approaches. Conclusion There are not enough studies on physician-patient communication in China. We need to identify the problems affecting communication behavior, encourage patients to express their preferences, choose appropriate training strategies, and make timely evaluation so as to better satisfy the needs of patients and physicians.

ObjectiveTo explore the current status of treatment adherence in patients with chronic kidney disease without dialysis and to analyze its influencing factors.MethodsThe patients who visited the Outpatient Department of Nephrology of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from September to December 2020 were taken as the research objects. Self-designed general information questionnaire, treatment adherence questionnaire, physician-patient communication satisfaction, health information seeking behavior questionnaire, and physician-patient concordance questionnaire were used to investigate, and path analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of treatment adherence.ResultsA total of 203 valid questionnaires were obtained. Treatment adherence score was (21.69±2.42) points, self-reported health status was (2.48±0.91) points, physician-patient concordance was (20.39±2.70) points, physician-patient communication satisfaction was (67.73±5.52) points, and health information seeking behavior was (13.17±2.65) points. Health information seeking behavior (r=0.214, P=0.002), physicians-patient concordance (r=0.494, P<0.001), physician-patient communication satisfaction (r=0.229, P=0.001) were positively correlated with treatment adherence. Self-reported health status was negatively correlated with treatment adherence (r=−0.225, P=0.001). Path analysis showed that physicians-patient concordance was the most influencing factor of treatment adherence (total effect=0.474).ConclusionHealth information-seeking behavior and physicians-patient concordance are important factors affecting treatment adherence in chronic kidney disease patients without dialysis. In order to improve treatment adherence of chronic kidney disease patients, healthcare providers can provide various ways to provide information, which can help make more disease-related health knowledge available to patients. Moreover, healthcare workers should also further explore ways to improve the concordance related to reaching agreement between doctors and patients on medical and treatment options.
To investigate the microsurgical management of cranionasal tumors and the method of the reconstruction of the skull base. Methods From June 2005 to October 2007, 20 patients with cranionasal tumor were treated. There were 10 males and 10 females, aged between 13 and 77 years (median 49 years). The disease course was 2 months to 13 years.The cranionasal tumors, proved by MRI and CT scans, located in the anterior skull base, paranasal sinus, nasal and/or orbit cavity. And their cl inical presentations were l isted as follows: dysosphresia in 14 patients, headache in 11 patients, nasal obstruction in 9 patients, epistaxis in 8 patients, visual disorder in 4 patients, exophthalmos in 4 patients and conscious disturbance in 2 patients. All 20 patients underwent transbasal surgery combined with transnasal surgery, and tumors were resected by one-stage operation. The skull base was reconstructed by surgical technique “Pull Down Sandwich” with pedicle periosteum flap. Results Tumors were resected by one-stage operation, and the anterior skull bases were reconstructed. Pathological examination showed 8 cases of mal ignant tumors and 12 cases of benign tumors. The total surgical excision was complete in 16 patients, and 4 patients with subtotal excision. There was no operative death. Eighteen patients were followed up 3 months to 2 years and 6 months. Transient cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea was found in 2 cases which were cured by lumbar drainage. And recurrence of tumor was observed in 5 patients 3 months to 2 years after operation. Conclusion Microsurgical operation via subfrontal approach assisted bytransnasal endoscopy is an effective method in management of cranionasal tumors, with the advantages of econstruction of the skull base with pedicle periosteum flap or “Pull Down Sandwich” and low compl ication rate.
ObjectiveTo explore if flipped classroom in the perspective of student-based education can improve clinical communication skills of student practical nurses in clinical practice. MethodsNursing undergraduate students who practised in a top-level comprehensive hospital between July 2014 and April 2015 were included in this study as the research subjects. Eighty-five student nurses were randomly divided into observation group (n=43) and control group (n=42). Students of the observation group participated in the flipped classroom in the perspective of student-based education, while students of the control group took routine clinical practice. The clinical communication skills of the students in the two groups before and after intervention were measured by using questionnaire survey. ResultsThere were significant improvement in verification experience, effective information delivery, patient problems identifying, listening acuity, harmonious relationship building and joint participation for students in the observation group (P < 0.05). ConclusionsFlipped classroom in the perspective of student-based education can effectively improve clinical communication skills for student practical nurses. It can be used as a method of communication ability training for undergraduate nursing students in clinical practice.
