AbstractObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and patient satisfaction of the EarWell Infant Ear Correction System combined with modular parents’ nursing education's curative effect on deformed auricle.MethodsA total of 42 patients (29 boys and 13 girls; 73 ears; age ≤3 months) with auricle deformities who had received EarWell Infant Ear Correction System's treatment and modular parents’ nursing education in Guangzhou Children and Women's Medical Center between April and October 2018. The modular parents’ education program is standardized by EarWell system. Physician and patients’ parents compared the severity of auricle deformity separately before and after the treatment by using the auricle deformities visual analogue scales (VAS) rating system. Patient satisfaction was evaluated by using global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS). The data collected of auricle deformities VAS and GAIS satisfaction score were applied to measure the treatment's effectiveness.ResultsAll the 42 patients (73 external ears) completed the treatment with EarWell Infant Ear Correction System and modular parents’ nursing education. The mean age at initiation of treatment was 37.87 ± 19.44 days and the therapeutic time span was 47.21 ± 17.36 days. At the end of treatment, the physician's and patients’ guardians rating of the severity of auricle deformity were significantly improved separately compared to the initial rating (8.33 ± 1.27 vs. 6.51 ± 0.84; P < 0.005) (5.77 ± 1.59 vs. 8.19 ± 2.38 P < 0.05). During the treatment and parents’ home nursing care period, the side effect and complications were minor like skin eczema and irrigation; there were no severe complications such as necrosis of the skin and cartilage. The patient tolerance for the treatment was acceptable with the adequate parents’ nursing care. Most patients’ guardians were satisfied with the treatment outcomes of EarWell Infant Ear Correction System with more engagement of nursing care, the GAIS's rating were increased from pretreatment stage's 26.19% to treatment completed stage's 90.48%, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).ConclusionsIn this study, we proved that EarWell Infant Ear Correction System with its unique parents’ modular nursing care education, as a noninvasive treatment, reasonably improved auricle morphological malformation, and patients’ guardians satisfaction with few complications, which is worthy of a wildly clinical promotion.

Background: The nursing care documentation technique that applied at Arosuka Hospital was narrative recording technique. Based on documentation evaluation of nursing care, nursing documentation at Arosuka Hospital was still not equal to documentation of nursing care. Methods: This research intends to analyze the effect of checklist documenting model to the documentation of nursing care in Arosuka Hospital. This research had been conducted since January to June 2017 and the data were collected from May to June 2017. The method of this research was quasi-experiment, pre-test and post-test group research. There were forty-five nurses taken as the samples with total sampling techniques applied. The instruments that used in this research were the forms of checklist documenting model and nursing care evaluation sheet. Result: The result of the research has shown that there is difference of the completeness of nursing care documentation before and after using the checklist model documenting format. The average number of nursing care documentation is higher with the checklist model compared to narrative model mean (40,533). This checklist documenting model is recommended to be applied in Arosuka Distric Hospital to improve the completeness of nursing care documentation in Arosuka Distric Hospital. Keywords:Checklist model, documentation, nursing care.

Introduction In 2013 our hospital introduced an in-hours, consultant-led, outpatient acute surgical clinic (ASC) for emergency general surgical patients. In 2014 this clinic was equipped with a dedicated ultrasonography service. This prospective cohort study evaluated this service before and after the introduction of ultrasonography facilities. Methods Data were recorded prospectively for all patients attending the clinic during 2013 and 2014. The primary outcome was patient destination (whether there was follow-up/admission) after clinic attendance. Results The ASC reviewed patients with a wide age range and array of general surgical complaints. In 2013, 186 patients attended the ASC. After the introduction of the ultrasonography service in 2014, 304 patients attended. In 2014, there was a reduction in the proportion of patients admitted to hospital from the clinic (18.3% vs 8.9%, p=0.002). However, the proportion of patients discharged after ASC review remained comparable with 2013 (30.1% in 2013 vs 38.8% in 2014, p=0.051). The proportion of patients undergoing computed tomography (CT) scans also fell (14.0% vs 4.9%, p<0.001). Conclusions The ASC assessed a wide array of general surgical complaints. Only a small proportion required hospital admission. The introduction of an ultrasonography service was associated with a further reduction in admission rates and computed tomography.

This study describes nurses’ perspectives about their experience of being involved in a 6-day educational intervention which focused on the development of competency in family nursing practice with a particular emphasis on family nursing conversations. The foundational knowledge of the educational intervention was based on the Calgary Family Assessment Model (CFAM) and the Calgary Family Intervention Model (CFIM). A research design incorporating quantitative and qualitative measurement was used. Before and after the family nursing educational intervention, nurse participants ( n = 18) completed the Families’ Importance in Nursing Care–Nurses’ Attitudes (FINC-NA) instrument. The outcomes were analyzed using paired-samples t tests. FINC-NA scores increased by 6.94 points ( SD = 5.66, p < .001). To complement the quantitative findings, in-depth interviews were conducted with all of the participants. Participants reported increased awareness of the importance of families in nursing care. In addition to an increase in positive attitudes about families, participants perceived that their knowledge and skills regarding family nursing conversations were more comprehensive. A 6-day educational intervention with a focus on reflection appears useful in helping nurses to “think family” and encouraging perceptions of increased competence in family nursing conversations.

Aim: to evaluate the intensity of the client’s pain with autoimmune bullous  dermatoses,  before  and  after the  protocol  of  nursing  care  is  applied to  a  client with autoimmune bullous dermatoses. Method: the data were treated using fuzzy logic. Results: when associating the implementation of the protocol with pain reduction in the 14 study subjects the following stand out: in T0, seven subjects presented high levels of pain, with a pertinence of 1.0; in T1, 24 hours after intervention, eight presented a low level of pain, with pertinences ranging from 1.0 and 0.75, and only one with high level of pain;  in  T2,  only  one  remained  with  a  high  level  of  pain.  Discussion:  the  use  of analgesics prior to application of the protocol demonstrates that change in pain intensity was  not  influenced  by  use  of  medication,  but  rather  by  the  implemented  care. Conclusion: based on the classifications of fuzzy logic, there was a significant reduction of pain levels, especially in the first 24 hours.
