Multiple injury refers to the injury of two or more anatomical parts of the body caused by mechanical injury factors. Even if only one injury exists alone, it can endanger limbs or lives. Therefore, nursing plays an important role in its treatment. Here, we investigated the application and clinical effect of nursing based on the Kano model in emergency multiple injuries. A case-control study was designed, where 48 patients with multiple injuries in the emergency department were divided into the control group to perform routine care and 48 patients were divided into the study group to carry on nursing based on the Kano model. The first-aid indexes, success rate of rescue, inflammatory response indicators, satisfaction rate of nursing, incidence of adverse events, and prognosis were compared between the two groups. A monofactor analysis showed that the emergency response time, admission time, and emergency department rescue time were shorter in the study group than those in the control group, indicating a higher success rate of rescue with nursing based on the Kano model. For the immunity of patients, the scores of mental states and the serum levels of inflammatory factors were lower in the study group than those in the control group. In addition, the rate of nursing satisfaction and good prognosis in the study group was significantly higher than those in the control group, and the incidence of adverse events was significantly lower than that in the control group. These results indicated that nursing based on the Kano model in patients with emergency multiple injuries can reduce the body inflammatory reaction, reduce the risk of adverse events, improve the prognosis of patients, and obtain high patient satisfaction.
The study aimed to identify latent classes of demoralization and examine their association with depression and with quality of life (QOL) among patients with cancer. MethodsCross-sectional data from 874 patients with cancer from three tertiary hospitals in Fujian province were collected using a convenience sampling method. Demoralization, depression, and QOL were assessed using the Chinese version of the Demoralization Scale-II, Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and McGill Quality of Life Questionnaire. Latent class analysis was performed on demoralization pro les. Binary logistic regression and multiple stepwise linear regression were used to examine the identi ed classes' associations with depression and QOL. ResultsThree latent classes of demoralization were identi ed: the "low demoralization and emotional disturbance" class (Class 1; 49.6%); "moderate demoralization and meaninglessness" class (Class 2; 29.1%); and "high demoralization and existential despair" class (Class 3; 21.3%). The severity of depression increased and the levels of QOL decreased with the three classes of demoralization. Patients with cancer in Classes 1 and 2 were 0.128 and 0.018 times more likely to be depressed than those in Class 3, respectively, whereas the magnitudes of decrease in QOL scores for Classes 2 and 3 were 0.378 and 0.629, respectively. ConclusionThis study revealed three heterogeneous classes of demoralization in Chinese patients with cancer and indicated that increased classes were associated with more severe depression and decreased QOL. Targeted, step-by-step psychological interventions should be developed and implemented according to the characteristics of each class of demoralization to effectively promote psychological well-being among patients with cancer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
