Objective To investigate the status of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of Standard Practice for Intravenous Nursing among nurses. Methods A total of 140 nurses were recruited and investigated with a self-designed questionnaire on March 16th, 2016. Results A total of 140 questionnaires were collected and 137 valid questionnaires were finally analyzed. Nurses’ KAP scores of Standard Practice for Intravenous Nursing were good. Hospital level, hospital characteristics, position and whether the nurses were specialized in intravenous nursing were influencing factors of the scores (P<0.05). Conclusions The general situation of KAP of Standard Practice for Intravenous Nursing is good, but nurses' knowledge on intravenous treatment is rather weak. Nurses should pay more attention to the knowledge of Standard Practice for Intravenous Nursing. Targeted education should be provided for nurses to promote the formation of positive attitude and healthy behaviors of clinical intravenous nursing practice.
Objective To understand the outpatients, evaluation and demands of the real-name registration system. To implement the new medical reform program deeply. Methods We used the questionnaire named registration questionnaire of West China Hospital designed by ourselves to survey the outpatients and their family members and were filled in the questionnaire by themselves. Results Firstly, real-name registration system in West China Hospital made major contribution to alleviate the difficulties of registration and medical treatment. It achieved a major breakthrough and created a good social benefit. Secondly, patients the most favourite way of registration was by phone. They were satisfied with the platform of the social welfare services very much. Thirdly, the number of appointment registration arrived year by year, while the number of the day registration fell year by year. Conclusion Firstly, we innovate the form of the realname registration system, refine service and do scientific management at the needs of the patient-oriented. Secondly, we strengthen the track of the failure of appointment registration and analyze the causes. We should take measures timely to reduce the rate of the event and improve the real-name registration system. Thirdly, we strengthen the management of the out-patient doctor visiting program and credit services, to improve medical compliance rate and protect the interests of the patients. Fourthly, we explore a scientific research of out-patient real-name registration system to establish a modern hospital out-patient services model.
The Essential of ACC/AHA Guidelines for the Management of Patients with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction was introduced, including epidemology, initial management in the emergency department and hospital management.
The Evidence-based guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of age-related macular degeneration in China (2023) is the first evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in China that strictly follows the WHO guideline formulation and international guideline standards. Based on the latest evidence-based medical evidence and the rapid development of ocular fundus imaging technology, the new version of the guidelines has been updated in the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of AMD. Based on the origin and presence of neovascularization in retinal tissue, the macular neovascularizations are divided into type 1, type 2 and type 3 macular neovascularization (MNV). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) plus OCT angiography is recommended as the useful diagnostic method in neovascular AMD patients. Antioxidant vitamins, zinc, lutein, zeaxanthin, or a mix of antioxidant vitamins and minerals are recommended to prevent the progression of early to intermediate AMD. Intravitreal administration of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents is the first-line treatment for neovascular AMD, and once a month for the first 3 months plus treatment and prolonged administration regimen shows benefit to a certain extent. For poor response and non-response neovascular AMD patients, the clinician should decide the next treatment plan based on comprehensive consideration. Close observation is recommended for non-exudative MNV, and anti-VEGF therapy should be used promptly once non-exudative MNV transfer to exudative MNV. It is hoped that this guideline will improve the diagnosis, treatment, prevention and follow-up of AMD in China.

ObjectiveTo explore the practical effects of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) management model in the management of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).MethodsIn 2015, the multi-drug resistant MDT was established, and MDT meetings were held regularly to focus on the problems in the management of MDROs and related measures to prevent and control nosocomial infections of MDROs.ResultsThe detection rate of MDROs from 2014 to 2017 was 9.20% (304/3 303), 7.11% (334/4 699), 8.01% (406/5 072), and 7.81% (354/4 533), respectively. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=11.803, P=0.008), in which the detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRABA), carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) changed significantly (χ2=39.022, 17.052, 12.211; P<0.05). From 2014 to 2017, the proportion of multi-drug resistant infections decreased year by year, from 84.54% to 52.82%, and the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections also declined, from 46.05% to 23.16%; the nosocomial infection case-time rate decreased from 0.24% to 0.13% year-on-year; the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections in total hospital infections was 9.07%, 11.17%, 10.47%, and 6.16%, respectively; in the distribution of multi-drug resistant nosocomial infection bacteria, the proportion of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, CRABA, CRE hospital infections accounted for the number of MDROs detected decreased year by year. The use rate of antibiotics decreased from 46.58% in 2014 to 42.93% in 2017, and the rate of pathogens increased from 64.83% in 2014 to 84.59% in 2017.ConclusionThe MDT management mode is effective for the management and control of MDROs, which can reduce the detection rate, infection rate, hospital infection rate, and antibacterial drug use rate, increase the pathogen detection rate, and make the prevention and control of MDROs more scientific and standardized.
ObjectiveTo investigate the status of knowledge, attitude, and practice of patient identification in nurses, and provide a basis for clinical managers to carry out targeted training.MethodsA total of 3 696 nurses of tertiary, secondary, and primary hospitals in Guizhou Province were recruited and investigated for the status of knowledge, attitude, and practice of patient identification with a questionnaire by using convenient sampling in May 2019.ResultsThe scores of identification knowledge, attitude, and practice of the 3 696 nurses were 47.87±6.10, 27.39±3.15, and 57.19±4.86, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the educational level was, the higher the score of nurses’ knowledge of patient identification was [odds ratio (OR)=1.592, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.084, 2.338), P=0.018]; the higher the personal monthly income was, the more positive the nurses’ attitude towards patient identification was [OR=1.570, 95%CI (1.005, 2.453), P=0.048].ConclusionsThe general situation of patient identification in nurses is good, but there are still differences among nurses with different characteristics. It is suggested that managers should pay special attention to the training of nurses with low educational level and low income, make them master the knowledge of patient identification, at the same time, improve their enthusiasm and standardize their behavior, so as to ensure the safety of patients.
Objective To investigate the status quo of implementation ofIntravenous Practice Standard in a tertiary A hospital in Sichuan. Methods At 09:00-11:30 am, on March 16th, 2016, a questionnaire designed by intravenous team (IV Team) was used to conduct the investigation in all the inpatiets according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The SPSS 17.0 software was used to perform all statistical analysis. Results The intravenous infusion rate in the hospital was 76.87%, while the rate in Emergency Department peaked up to 96.11%. Indwelling needle was the most common used device for intravenous therapy in clinical practice, which was used in 77.91% of the inpatients, and steel needle, peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC), central venous catheter, and implantable venous access port were also widely used. Peripheral intravenous catheter was used in 2 990 inpatients, and 78.12% of the puncture sites met the standard; PICC was used in 397 inpatients, and 90.17% of the puncture sites met the standard. The incidence of intravenous infusion related-complications was 15.08%, the incidence of drug exosmosis / exudation was 10.06%, and the incidence of catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) was 2.89%. Conclusions On the whole, the intravenous infusion rate in this hospital accords with the national average level, but the rate in some departments should be controlled. The selection of device for intravenous therapy is reasonable, but the selection of intravenous site should be more standardized. The incidence of intravenous infusion related-complications is low, but the prevention and control of drug exosmosis / exudation and CRBSI should be reinforced. Health care organizations should pay more attention to enforce the Intravenous Practice Standard into practice to promote clinical medical service.
