Ongun P, Oztekin SD, Bugra O, Dolapoglu A. Effect of a preoperative evidence-based care education on postoperative recovery of cardiac surgery patients: A quasi-experimental study. Nurs Crit Care 2024; 29:1151-1161. [PMID: 38699980 DOI: 10.1111/nicc.13082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative nursing care affects many factors such as reducing the length of hospital stay of the patients in the perioperative period, the rate of postoperative complications, the duration of the operation, decrease of postoperative pain level and early mobilization. AIM We aimed to determine the effect of preoperative evidence-based care education that given to cardiac surgery clinical nurses on the postoperative recovery of patients. STUDY DESIGN The research was planned as quasi-experimental. Eighty-six patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery were divided into control and intervention groups. First, the ongoing preoperative care practices and patient recovery outcomes of the clinic were recorded for the control group data. Second, education was provided for the clinical nurses about the preoperative evidence-based care list, and a pilot application was implemented. Finally, the evidence-based care list was applied by the nurses to the intervention group, and its effects on patient outcomes were evaluated. The data were collected using the preoperative evidence-based care list, descriptive information form, intraoperative information form and postoperative patient evaluation form. RESULTS The evidence-based care list was applied to the patients in the intervention group, with 100% adherence by the nurses. All pain level measurements in the intervention group were significantly lower in all measurements (p = .00). The body temperature measurements (two measurements) of the intervention group were higher (p = .00). The postoperative hospital stays of the control group and the intervention group were 11.21 ± 8.41 and 9.50 ± 3.61 days. CONCLUSION The presented preoperative evidence-based care list can be used safely in nursing practices for patients. It provides effective normothermia, reduces the level of pain, shortens the hospital stay and reduces the number of postoperative complications. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE By applying a preoperative evidence-based care to patients undergoing cardiac surgery, pain levels, hospital stays and the number of complications decrease, and it is possible to maintain normothermia. An evidence-based care can be used to ensure rapid postoperative recovery for patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Educational needs and preferences of adult patients with acute pain: a mixed-methods systematic review. Pain 2024:00006396-990000000-00630.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Many patients experience acute pain, which has been associated with numerous negative consequences. Pain education has been proposed as a strategy to improve acute pain management. However, studies report limited effects with educational interventions for acute pain in adults, which can be explained by the underuse of the person-centered approach. Thus, we aimed to systematically review and synthetize current evidence from quantitative, qualitative and mixed-methods studies describing patients' needs and preferences for acute pain education in adults. We searched original studies and gray literature in 7 databases, from January 1990 to October 2023. Methodological quality was assessed with the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. A total of 32 studies were included (n = 1847 patients), two-thirds of which were qualitative studies of high methodological quality. Most of the studies were conducted over the last 15 years in patients with postsurgical and posttraumatic pain, identified as White, with a low level of education. Patients expressed the greatest need for education when it came to what to expect in pain intensity and duration, as well how to take the medication and its associated adverse effects. The most frequently reported educational preferences were for in-person education while involving caregivers and to obtain information first from physicians, then by other professionals. This review has highlighted the needs and preferences to be considered in pain education interventions, which should be embedded in an approach cultivating communication and partnership with patients and their caregivers. The results still need to be confirmed with different patient populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols aim to optimize the recovery process for patients after surgical interventions and focus on patient-centered care. In cardiac surgery, the ERAS concept is still in its early stages. Our university hospital has implemented an innovative ERAS protocol for minimally invasive heart valve surgery since 2021. Therefore, our study aimed to comprehensively assess the patient experience within this newly established ERAS protocol and focused on exploring and understanding the nuances of optimal healthcare delivery under the ERAS framework from the unique perspective of the patients undergoing cardiac surgery. METHODS Qualitative research was conducted using semi-structured interviews. Data was analyzed using Kuckartz´s qualitative content analysis. RESULTS The following main themes emerged from the 12 completed patient interviews: 1) information and communication flow, 2) perioperative patient care, and 3) rehabilitation. Patients found the pre-operative patient education and preconditioning very helpful. Patients were satisfied with the flow of information throughout the whole perioperative care process. Most patients expressed a need for more information about the course of surgery. The intensity of care provided by different professions was perceived as optimal. The support and inclusion of relatives in perioperative care were considered crucial. Patients appreciated the direct transfer to the rehabilitation and mainly were able to cope with daily life tasks afterward. CONCLUSION In summary, all patients experienced the ERAS protocol positively, and their healthcare process was well established. Active inclusion and education of patients in their treatment can improve patient empowerment. Two further aspects that deserve major consideration in the healthcare process are the inclusion of relatives and interprofessional cooperation.

Abstract
This randomized controlled study aimed to investigate the effect that preoperative education provided by the perioperative nurse about the OR environment and intraoperative care has on surgical fear in patients who come to the OR for surgical intervention. The study involved 92 patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery who were randomly assigned to the intervention or routine care group. Preoperatively, patients in the intervention group received education via a form that described the OR environment, the surgical process, and intraoperative care. The patients' surgical fear levels were assessed in the patients' rooms, in the clinic before education, and on arrival to the OR after education. The results showed that preoperative education about the OR environment and intraoperative processes significantly reduced patients' surgical fears.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES The aim of the project was to discern whether a collaborative, consultative-rich, clinical nurse specialist-led project could increase completion rates of a patient health questionnaire for depression and a generalized anxiety disorder questionnaire with appropriate referrals in adult patients in the ambulatory and hospital settings of a robust cardiovascular surgery practice before cardiovascular surgery. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT The Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control implementation methodology guided this quality improvement project. The workflow was analyzed in collaboration with stakeholders, and barriers to and facilitators of questionnaire completion were identified. Interpreter services partnerships were enhanced and used for patients with a preferred language other than English. Weekly data analysis assessed ongoing questionnaire completion rates. OUTCOME Documented completion rates of questionnaires improved across ambulatory and hospital settings by 15%. Patients with a preferred language other than English had an 80-percentage-point increase in documented questionnaire completion. CONCLUSION Clinical nurse specialists are poised to lead projects because of their use of the collaborative and consultative core competencies. A formal electronic health record report was established for monitoring outcomes. Embedding questionnaire administration within the standard workflow of ambulatory and hospital staff makes administering questionnaires preoperatively a sustainable practice in both settings.

Abstract
Introduction Preoperative education is an essential nursing task that can be affected by the nurses' perception. Patients may be receiving insufficient vital information before surgery. However, the essential information that should be provided to patients undergoing surgery is not fully addressed. Objective To assess the essential elements of preoperative information as perceived by the surgical nurses. Methods This was a cross-sectional study. A convenience sample of 224 registered nurses who were working at surgical units was recruited from two hospitals. A preoperative teaching questionnaire was used. Results Details about the operation (4.39 ± 0.61) and preoperative preparation (4.36 ± 0.61) were the most important domains of preoperative education as perceived by nurses. The results show significant differences between the perceived and actual preoperative educational practice across all domains except the preoperative preparation. Conclusions The delivery of preoperative education could be affected by nurses' perceptions. Efforts to facilitate the implementation of effective education as perceived by nurses should be conducted by minimizing potential barriers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The emergency department plays a crucial role in providing acute care to patients. Nursing interventions in this setting are essential for improving the continuity of care, enhancing patients' self-care abilities, and reducing psychological symp-toms. AIM To evaluate the effect of nursing interventions in the emergency department on these indicators in an emergency department. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on 120 patients admitted to the emergency department between January 2022 and May 2023. The patients were divided into two groups: The control group (conventional nursing intervention) and the observation group (conventional nursing intervention + emergency department nursing intervention). The two groups were compared regarding continuity of care, self-care ability, psychological symptoms, and satisfaction with care. RESULTS The emergency department nursing interventions significantly improved the continuity of care, enhanced patients' self-care abilities, and reduced psychological symptoms such as anxiety and depression. CONCLUSION Nursing interventions in the emergency department positively impact continuity of care, self-care, and psychological symptoms. However, it is important to acknowledge the limitations of this study, including the small number of studies, variable methodological quality, and the heterogeneity of the study population. Future research should address these limitations and further explore the effects of different types of nursing interventions in the emergency department. Additionally, efforts should be made to enhance the application and evaluation of these interventions in clinical practice.

Abstract
Early mobility and activity programmes following cardiac surgery are vital for improved patient outcomes, as they accelerate the recovery of functional capacity and walking distance. We observed that only 5.3% of our patients achieved a Functional Independence Measurement (FIM) score of 80% or more by the third postoperative day (POD). Additionally, the average 6-minute walk distance achieved by the fourth POD was only 188 m. Therefore, a quality improvement (QI) project was implemented with the aim of attaining a FIM score of 80% by the third POD for more than 80% of patient underwent/undergoing cardiac surgery without complications.A model-for-improvement framework was used to drive continuous improvement. This project was implemented in February 2021. Baseline data were prospectively collected between November 2020 and January 2021 (preintervention). Outcomes were analysed using standard control chart rules to detect changes over time. Unpaired Student t-tests assessed significant differences in mean levels between two groups, (preintervention vs postintervention).χ2 tests were conducted between the two groups according to gender and patient satisfaction scores.The percentage of patients who achieved a FIM score of 80% or more by the third POD gradually increased to 91.4% 5 months following programme implementation and was sustained thereafter. The mean patient FIM score significantly improved to 81.20±3.77 (p<0.001) by the third POD. Similarly, the mean 6-minute walk distance increased to 267.90±36.10 m (p<0.001) by the fourth POD. The percentage of patients who displayed the level of confidence needed to carry out activities of daily living (ADL) and exercises independently at home increased to 89.4% (p<0.001) by the fifth POD. No adverse events associated with the mobility and activity programme were reported.This QI project demonstrated a substantial improvement in patient functional independence, walking distance and the level of confidence needed to independently carry out ADL and exercises following cardiac surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This review will aim to synthesize the available quantitative and qualitative evidence on the educational needs and preferences of adult patients with acute or chronic pain. INTRODUCTION Acute and chronic pain are prevalent problems and are associated with significant individual and societal consequences. Education is a critical component of pain management. However, the impact of educational interventions on pain outcomes remains limited. The lack of patient input--what patients want to know and how they want to be informed--is one of the main issues underlying intervention design. INCLUSION CRITERIA We will include qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods studies describing the educational needs and preferences of adult patients with acute or chronic pain. METHODS This review will follow the JBI guidelines for mixed methods systematic reviews. We will search MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase (Ovid), PsycINFO (Ovid), CINAHL (EBSCO), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses. The search strategy will commence from the year 1990 onward and there will be no language restrictions. The retrieved titles, abstracts, and full-text reports will be screened by pairs of independent reviewers. These pairs of reviewers will also independently extract data using the JBI tools for mixed methods systematic reviews. Methodological quality will be assessed using the mixed methods appraisal tool. A convergent integrated approach to synthesis and integration of the quantitative and qualitative data will be used. REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO CRD42022303834.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the impact of a virtual reality (VR) intervention on adult patients' preoperative anxiety, heart rate, respiration rate and blood pressure. DESIGN A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). DATA SOURCES A librarian-designed search of the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, CINAHL, CBM, CNKI and Wanfang databases was conducted to identify research studies in English or Chinese on RCTs from their inception to 31 May 2022. Detailed search strategies and the checklist are provieded in Supplementary files S1 and S2. REVIEW METHODS Two researchers independently screened eligible studies. The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions was used to assess the risk of bias in the included studies. A fixed- or random-effects meta-analysis model was used to determine the pooled mean difference based on the results of the heterogeneity test. RESULTS This study included 11 articles with a total of 892 participants. VR distraction comprised five studies, and VR exposure consisted of six studies. The results indicated that VR could reduce preoperative anxiety in adult patients and VR exposure seems to be more effective. The results also indicated that VR intervention can effectively reduce patients' heart rate and blood pressure compared to traditional intervention methods, but had no significant effect on respiration rate. CONCLUSION VR technology could relieve preoperative anxiety in adult patients through distraction or exposure. More well-designed RCTs containing a wider range of surgical types are needed to verify our findings before we can make strong recommendations. IMPACT Our systematic review and meta-analysis show a positive effect of VR distraction and exposure interventions in reducing preoperative anxiety in adult patients. We suggest incorporating VR into preoperative procedures as an auxiliary way to reduce negative emotions in eligible patients. NO PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION Our paper is a systematic review and meta-analysis and such details do not apply to our work.

Abstract
The administration of analgesic drugs in elderly patients should take into account age-related physiological changes, loss of efficiency of homeostatic mechanisms, and pharmacological interactions with chronic therapies. Underestimation of pain in patients with impaired cognition is often linked to difficulties in pain assessment. In the preoperative phase, it is essential to assess the physical status, cognitive reserve, and previous chronic pain conditions to plan effective analgesia. Furthermore, an accurate pharmacological history of the patient must be collected to establish any possible interaction with the whole perioperative analgesic plan. The use of analgesic drugs with different mechanisms of action for pain relief in the intraoperative phase is a crucial step to achieve adequate postoperative pain control in older adults. The combined multimodal and opioid-sparing strategy is strongly recommended to reduce side effects. The use of various adjuvants is also preferable. Moreover, the implementation of non-pharmacological approaches may lead to faster recovery. High-quality postoperative analgesia in older patients can be achieved only with a collaborative interdisciplinary team. The aim of this review is to highlight the perioperative pain management strategies in the elderly with a special focus on intraoperative pharmacological interventions.

Kim TW, Kim SH. Effectiveness of patient education on total knee arthroplasty: A systematic review and meta-analysis. J Clin Nurs 2023; 32:2383-2398. [PMID: 35429079 DOI: 10.1111/jocn.16324] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Revised: 02/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES This study was designed to examine the contents and methods of patient educational interventions about total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and their effectiveness in reducing postoperative pain and enhancing range of motion (ROM) in the literature. BACKGROUND Patient education has been provided to facilitate recovery after TKA; however, little is known about the contents and methods of the interventions and their effectiveness in reducing postoperative pain and enhancing ROM. DESIGN This is a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs). METHODS Published studies from June 1998-June 2021 were identified from electronic databases. Two independent investigators assessed the quality of the studies by using the revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Meta-analyses with random-effects models were conducted to assess the effectiveness of the interventions using the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software. The study was performed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guideline. RESULTS Among 12 articles that met the inclusion criteria, three interventions provided education on pain management and mobility/exercises. The most common educational methods were the combinations of oral explanation, written materials, and audiovisual materials, group discussion, while four studies used information technology (IT) devices. The meta-analysis demonstrated that the educational interventions using IT devices were effective in improving pain and ROM, but not the interventions that did not use IT devices. CONCLUSION Structured education for pain management, communication and/or exercise support programs utilising diverse methods have been provided to patients undergoing TKA. Using IT devices could successfully enhance the effectiveness of educational interventions for patients undergoing TKA. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Integration of postoperative pain management and mobility/exercises with the use of IT devices should be actively considered in providing patient education in clinical nursing practice.

Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, people voluntarily reduced their necessary healthcare. We examined whether supplying educational digital versatile discs (DVDs) before admission can reduce parental rejection of pediatric cardiac catheterization for congenital heart disease (CHD). Parents of 70 children with CHD selected for cardiac catheterization were randomly allocated to the DVD (received pre-admission DVDs in the outpatient department; 70 parents of 35 children) or non-DVD groups (did not receive the DVDs; 70 parents of 35 children). The parents could reject the admission of their children within 7 days. Cardiac catheterization was rejected by 14 (20.0%) and 26 (37.1%) parents in the DVD and non-DVD groups, respectively (p = 0.025). Parent Perceptions of Uncertainty Scale scores were lower in the DVD (128.3 ± 8.9 points) than in the non-DVD group (134.1 ± 7.3 points; p < 0.001). Decreased uncertainty due to pre-admission DVD watching could have contributed to the increased parental willingness for cardiac catheterization. The effects of pre-admission educational DVDs were more significant among parents with a lower education, rural residence, with only one child, female child, or younger child. Offering educational DVDs to parents of children selected for cardiac catheterization for CHD may decrease the parental rejection rate of the treatment.

Abstract
Background Indwelling bladder catheters are routinely used in clinical practice. Patients may experience postoperative indwelling catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD). This study aimed to perform a literature review to identify predictors of postoperative CRBD. Methods We searched PubMed for relevant articles published between 2000 and 2020 using the search items "CRBD", "catheter-related bladder discomfort", and "prediction". Additionally, we searched for articles that matched the research objectives from the references of the extracted articles. We included only prospective observational studies involving human participants and excluded interventional studies, observational studies that did not report sample sizes, or observational studies that did not research on predictors of CRBD. We narrowed our search to the keyword "prediction" and found five references. We selected five studies that met the objectives of the study as the target literature. Results Using the keywords "CRBD" and "catheter-related bladder discomfort", we identified 69 published articles. The results were narrowed down by the keyword "prediction", and five studies that recruited 1,147 patients remained. The predictors of CRBD can be divided into four factors: 1) patient factors; 2) surgical factors; 3) anesthesia factors; and 4) device and insertion technique factors. Conclusion Our study suggests that patients with predictors of CRBD should be closely monitored to reduce postoperative patient suffering, and their quality of life should be improved after anesthesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is minimal research on the effect of individualized preoperative education on postoperative pain and postoperative pain medication intake. AIM The study objective was to assess the effect of individually tailored preoperative education on postoperative pain severity, number of pain breakthroughs, and use of pain medication in participants receiving the intervention compared to controls. METHODS A pilot study with 200 participants was conducted. The experimental group received an informational booklet and discussed their ideas surrounding pain and pain medication with the researcher. Controls received no intervention. Postoperative pain severity was measured by a Numerical Rating System (NRS), which was divided into mild (NRS 1-3), moderate (NRS 4-6), and severe (NRS 7-10). RESULTS In the participant cohort, 68.8% of participants were male, and the average age was 60.48±10.7. Average postoperative 48-hour cumulative pain scores were lower in those who received the intervention compared to controls; 50.0 (IQR 35.8-60.0) vs. 65 (IQR 51.0-73.0; p < .01) participants who received the intervention had less frequent pain breakthroughs when compared to controls (3.0 [IQR 2.0-5.0] vs. 6.0 [IQR 4.0-8.0; p < .01]). There was no significant difference in the amount of pain medication taken by either group. CONCLUSIONS Participants who receive individualized preoperative pain education are more likely to have decreased postoperative pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient education is recommended as an essential component of Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocols. However, there are many uncertainties regarding content and methodological criteria, which may have a significant impact on the effectiveness of the intervention. The aim of this review is to assess the effect of preoperative patient education on postoperative recovery in abdominal surgery and to examine different patient education strategies for their effectiveness. METHODS We performed a systematic review according to the PRISMA guidelines. PubMed, CINAHL, and Cochrane were searched from 2011 to 2022. All studies investigating the effect of preoperative patient education on postoperative recovery in abdominal surgery were included. A critical quality assessment of all included studies was performed. RESULTS We identified 826 potentially suitable articles via a database search and included 12 studies in this review. The majority of the included studies reported a reduction in the length of hospital stay (LOS) and even a reduction in postoperative complications and adverse events. Patients with preoperative education seemed to have lower psychological stress and experience less anxiety. However, the contents, delivery, and general conditions were implemented differently, making comparison difficult. Moreover, the majority of the included studies were weak in quality. CONCLUSION With this review, we report potential effects, current implementations, and frameworks of patient education. However, the results must be interpreted with caution and are not directly transferable to clinical practice. Further studies in this field are necessary to make concrete recommendations for clinical practice.

Abstract
Objective To identify the information needs and perceptions of patients regarding the application of virtual reality in pre-surgical patient education. Methods A qualitative study was conducted between March and July 2020. The study population consisted of a purposive sample of patients scheduled for cardiac surgery from a single institution. Semi-structured individual interviews (n=19) were conducted and analysed using thematic analysis. Results Patient perceptions regarding virtual reality and information needs related to hospitalisation and surgery could be categorised into three themes: Creating familiarity, contents to explore and challenges and preconditions. Conclusions Virtual reality technology is a promising tool that can enhance conventional patient education to improve understanding and to potentially reduce concerns and anxieties. The virtual reality environment creates an opportunity for patients to be in control of the timing, quantity, depth and frequency of patient education. A virtual reality education tool should not be a substitute for personal contact with the physician. Innovation Patient information needs were identified profoundly to the further development of a virtual reality intervention. This intervention aims to educate patients prior to elective cardiac surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of music and preoperative education on anxiety, physiological responses, length of hospital stay, and quality of life in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (CABG) patients. DESIGN This was a non-randomized quasi-experimental study. METHODS For this study, 214 patients were separated into an experimental and control group. A dual intervention using preoperative education and a CD with classical Turkish music was applied to the experimental group. The control group was provided with an uninterrupted rest period at the same time. The primary outcome was the difference in anxiety of the patients. Other outcomes included differences in the physiological responses, length of hospital stay, and quality of life. FINDINGS Anxiety decreased in the preoperative and postoperative periods in both groups (P = .000), and patients' anxiety level in the experimental group was lower than the control group (P = .000). The experimental group patients had a decrease in systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and heart rate in the preoperative period (P = .000), and all physiological responses in the postoperative period were lower than the control group (P = .000). Furthermore, the experimental group's length of hospital stay was shorter (5.8 ± 1 days), and their quality of life was better (P = .000). CONCLUSIONS The dual integrative nursing intervention (music and preoperative education) was effective in reducing anxiety in CABG patients. The results of the study will contribute to nonpharmacological approaches in the management of anxiety in CABG patients.

Abstract
Objective Assessment of the readability and quality of online health information
regarding parathyroidectomy. Study Design Cross-sectional analysis. Setting Websites providing patient-oriented health information regarding
parathyroidectomy obtained via the Google search engine. Methods The top 75 Google search results for “parathyroidectomy,”“parathyroid
surgery,” and “parathyroid gland removal” were reviewed. Websites were
categorized by website type and country of origin. Readability was assessed
by Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level and Simple Measure of Gobbledygook. Website
quality was assessed per JAMA benchmark criteria and the DISCERN
instrument. Results A total of 74 unique websites were evaluated. The mean readability of the
assessed websites exceeded the recommended sixth-grade reading level on the
Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level and Simple Measure of Gobbledygook
(P < .001). Readability did not vary significantly
by website type. Websites originating from the United Kingdom were
significantly more readable than those from the United States. The majority
of assessed websites were of poor quality (n = 42, 56.8%) on assessment
based on the DISCERN instrument. Quality varied significantly by website
category on the JAMA benchmark criteria (P < .001) and
DISCERN score (P = .049) with commercial websites receiving
the highest scores. DISCERN score also varied significantly by country of
origin (P = .036) with UK sites receiving highest mean
DISCERN scores. Conclusion Online health information regarding parathyroidectomy is largely of poor
quality and is poorly readable for many patients. Institutions utilizing
well-defined guidelines for development of patient educational resources may
provide online health information of greater quality and readability.

Abstract
A cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatment can trigger distress, negatively impact coping resources, and affect well-being as well as quality of life. The aim of this pilot study was to investigate feasibility and clinical effects of a VR intervention on quality of life, well-being and mood in cancer patients undergoing surgery compared to a non-VR intervention and a control group. 54 patients with colorectal cancer or liver metastases from colorectal cancer undergoing elective curatively intended surgery were recruited and randomised to one of two intervention groups or a control group receiving standard treatment. Participants assigned to one of the intervention groups either received a VR-based intervention twice daily or listened to music twice daily. Adherence to the intervention was 64.6% in the music group and 81.6% in the VR group. The VR intervention significantly reduced heart rate (- 1.2 bpm; 95% CI - 2.24 to - 0.22; p = 0.02) and respiratory rate (- 0.7 brpm; 95% CI - 1.08 to - 0.25; p = 0.01). Self-reported overall mood improved in both groups (VR: + 0.79 pts; 95% CI 0.37-1.21; p = 0.001; music: + 0.59 pts; 95% CI 0.22-0.97; p = 0.004). There was no difference in quality of life between the three groups. Both interventions groups reported changes in feelings. Adherence rates favoured the VR intervention over the music group. Observed clinical outcomes showed stronger intragroup effects on mood, feelings, and vital signs in the VR group. The study demonstrated feasibility of a VR intervention in cancer patients undergoing surgery and should encourage further research investigating the potential of VR interventions to positively influence well-being and mood in cancer patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To map the available evidence on the context, content and outcome of VR in patient education in situations related to preparation for medical somatic treatment. METHODS A Scoping review. In October 2020, the Embase, CINAHL, MEDLINE and PsycINFO databases were searched with the terms 'Virtual Reality' and 'Patient Education'. The literature was synthesised and mapped with a narrative approach. RESULTS 17 studies published between 2015 and 2020 were included in the qualitative synthesis. VR was applied in (paediatric) surgery and radiation therapy treatment. VR interventions were heterogeneous regarding technical applications, context of implementation, guidance by healthcare professionals and integration in education sessions. Anxiety reduction was demonstrated significantly in some studies. Patients experienced VR education useful; it enhanced understanding, improved communication with healthcare professionals and encouraged treatment compliance. CONCLUSIONS The application of VR in patient education is a promising technology. Patients are highly satisfied and experience enhanced understanding. VR education was not effective in reducing all anxiety, pain and stress and improving preparedness for treatment. Practice implications It is important to develop VR interventions profoundly. The application of a methodological framework for VR development is recommended. Involve patients, educationalists and technology professionals in the development of technology interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide recommendations for enhanced recovery after cardiac surgery (ERACS) based on a multimodal perioperative medicine approach in adult cardiac surgery patients with the aim of improving patient satisfaction, reducing postoperative mortality and morbidity, and reducing the length of hospital stay. DESIGN A consensus committee of 20 experts from the French Society of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine (Société française d'anesthésie et de réanimation, SFAR) and the French Society of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery (Société française de chirurgie thoracique et cardio-vasculaire, SFCTCV) was convened. A formal conflict-of-interest policy was developed at the onset of the process and enforced throughout. The entire guideline process was conducted independently of any industry funding. The authors were advised to follow the principles of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system to guide the assessment of the quality of evidence. METHODS Six fields were defined: (1) selection of the patient pathway and its information; (2) preoperative management and rehabilitation; (3) anaesthesia and analgesia for cardiac surgery; (4) surgical strategy for cardiac surgery and bypass management; (5) patient blood management; and (6) postoperative enhanced recovery. For each field, the objective of the recommendations was to answer questions formulated according to the PICO model (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome). Based on these questions, an extensive bibliographic search was carried out and analyses were performed using the GRADE approach. The recommendations were formulated according to the GRADE methodology and then voted on by all the experts according to the GRADE grid method. RESULTS The SFAR/SFCTCV guideline panel provided 33 recommendations on the management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass or off-pump. After three rounds of voting and several amendments, a strong agreement was reached for the 33 recommendations. Of these recommendations, 10 have a high level of evidence (7 GRADE 1+ and 3 GRADE 1-); 19 have a moderate level of evidence (15 GRADE 2+ and 4 GRADE 2-); and 4 are expert opinions. Finally, no recommendations were provided for 3 questions. CONCLUSIONS Strong agreement existed among the experts to provide recommendations to optimise the complete perioperative management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the effect of education before rhinoplasty surgery on patients' anxiety, pain, and satisfaction levels. DESIGN This was a randomized controlled experimental study. METHODS Of the 90 patients who underwent rhinoplasty surgery at Kayseri City Hospital, Turkey between October 2017 and December 2018, 79 were included in the study. The patients were assigned to an experimental or control group according to a computer-generated randomization list. The experimental group (n = 36) was educated using a rhinoplasty training guide prior to routine plastic surgery procedures. The control group (n = 35) received only routine plastic surgery procedures. A patient identification form, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Care Scale, and Visual Analog Scale were used to collect data. Data analysis included the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, Q-Q plot, two-way analysis of variance, Friedman and Mann-Whitney U tests, and Pearson's chi-square. FINDINGS In the postoperative period, the mean state anxiety inventory score of the experimental group (36.25 ± 9.78) was found to be significantly lower than that of the control group (42.28 ± 9.42) (P < .05). There was no statistically significant difference between the trait anxiety inventory scores of the experimental (39.63 ± 10.20) and control (38.77 ± 6.16) (P > .05) groups. The mean Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Care Scale score of the experimental group (71.01 ± 14.65) was significantly higher than the control group (62.93 ± 16.36) (P < .05). There was no significant difference between the pain scores of experimental and control groups postoperatively at 6, 12, and 24 hours (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Based on the results of our study, we conclude that it would be beneficial to educate patients before rhinoplasty surgery in line with their needs and aesthetic concerns.

A Preoperative Virtual Reality App for Patients Scheduled for Cardiac Catheterization: Pre–Post Questionnaire Study Examining Feasibility, Usability, and Acceptability. JMIR Cardio 2022; 6:e29473. [PMID: 35191839 PMCID: PMC8905473 DOI: 10.2196/29473] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 07/30/2021] [Accepted: 12/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Pre- and postoperative anxiety is a common phenomenon associated with negative postoperative outcomes. Symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder, such as fear, nightmares, and sleep deprivation, are prevalent in approximately 30% to 50% of patients following discharge from intensive care units after cardiac surgery. Preliminary evidence suggests a promising role of virtual reality (VR) in preventing stress-related reactions using stress inoculation training. Such training enables cognitive preparation of individuals for stressful situations, thereby becoming more tolerant and resistant to stress, subsequently reducing the risk of potential negative psychological consequences. This study investigated a preoperative VR app—Pre-View—aimed at better informing and preparing patients for cardiac catheterization. Objective This study aims to assess the feasibility, usability, and acceptability of Pre-View in patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. Methods Eligible participants were adults scheduled for elective cardiac catheterization. Pre-View comprised an interactive virtual representation of the whole care process related to cardiac catheterization, from entering the hospital for admission to postprocedural stay and discharge. These processes were represented through 360° videos and interactive photos. Self-report questionnaires were completed at baseline (ie, before catheterization and after undergoing the VR experience) and after cardiac catheterization. Outcome measures included user experience and satisfaction, VR presence and immersive tendencies, and user friendliness. The perceived effectiveness was assessed exploratively. Results A total of 8 individuals, with a mean age of 67 (SD 7.5) years, participated in this study. Half of them underwent the VR experience at the hospital and the other half at home. Participants reported high levels of presence in the virtual environment (Presence Questionnaire score: mean 129.1, SD 13.4). The usability of Pre-View was well evaluated (System Usability Scale score: mean 89.1, SD 12.0), and patient satisfaction was high (Client Satisfaction Questionnaire score: mean 27.1, SD 3.2). Usability and satisfaction scores were higher for participants who underwent Pre-View at home versus those who underwent Pre-View at the hospital, although the latter group was significantly older; 72.8 versus 61.3, respectively. All participants reported Pre-View to be effective in terms of feeling better informed about the care process of cardiac catheterization. Most participants (7/8, 88%) reported Pre-View to be effective in terms of feeling better prepared for cardiac catheterization, acknowledging the potential of Pre-View in reducing negative psychological consequences after catheterization. Conclusions The results provide initial support for the feasibility and acceptability of a preoperative VR app, creating a virtual environment that supports patient education and preparation for upcoming cardiac catheterization. More studies are needed to further investigate the effects of VR as a tool to better prepare patients for medical procedures, its effectiveness in reducing negative patient outcomes (eg, anxiety, stress, and postoperative recovery outcomes), and the generalizability of effects across different settings and patient populations.

Effectiveness of Online Video Instruction on Time to Start Ambulation and Duration of Hospital Stay, Satisfaction and Functional Recovery in Patients Undergoing Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Korean Med Sci 2022; 37:e7. [PMID: 35014223 PMCID: PMC8748663 DOI: 10.3346/jkms.2022.37.e7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2021] [Accepted: 11/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND At the end of 2014, we implemented an online video to inform patients of the entire process from admission to rehabilitation after total hip arthroplasty (THA). In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of online video instruction in THA patients. METHODS Electronic medical records of 184 patients undergoing THA in 2014 (pre-video group) and 182 patients in 2015 (post-video group) were reviewed. We compared 1) the time to start wheelchair ambulation, 2) walker or crutch ambulation, 3) the length of hospital stay, 4) postoperative satisfaction using visual analogue scale (0-10 points), and 5) modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) at postoperative 6 weeks. RESULTS In the post-video group, the time to start wheelchair ambulation (1.8 ± 0.6 vs. 2.4 ± 3.2 days, P = 0.021) and walker/crutch ambulation were faster (2.9 ± 1.2 vs. 3.8 ± 1.0 days, P = 0.016), and the hospital stay was shorter (8.2 ± 4.7 vs. 9.9 ± 7.8 days, P = 0.001) compared to the pre-video group. The visual analogue scale for satisfaction (7.84 ± 1.62 vs. 7.68 ± 1.85 points) and mHHS (89.59 ± 9.47 vs. 89.58 ± 8.59) were similar. CONCLUSION Online video instruction is an effective tool to expedite ambulation and reduce the hospital stay without compromising the clinical outcome and postoperative complications after THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac surgeries pose as an emotional experience for patients. Preoperative education is known to positively alter people's perceptions, emotions, and mitigate surgical distress. However, this intervention's effectiveness in improving perioperative outcomes among patients undergoing cardiac surgery lacked rigorous statistical synthesis and remains inconclusive. AIMS The aim was to synthesize the effectiveness of preoperative education on improving perioperative outcomes [anxiety, depression, knowledge, pain intensity, pain interference with daily activities, postoperative complications, length of hospitalization, length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, satisfaction with the intervention and care, and health-related quality of life] among patients undergoing cardiac surgery. METHODS This systematic review and meta-analysis conducted a comprehensive search of nine electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, MEDLINE, CINAHL, Cochrane CENTRAL, Web of Science, PsycINFO, and ERIC) and grey literature for randomized controlled trials examining the preoperative educational interventional effects on patients undergoing cardiac surgery from inception to 31 December 2020. The studies' quality was evaluated using Cochrane Risk-of-Bias Tool 1 (RoB1). Meta-analyses via RevMan 5.4 software synthesized interventional effects. RESULTS Twenty-two trials involving 3167 participants were included. Preoperative education had large significant effects on reducing post-intervention preoperative anxiety (P = 0.02), length of ICU stay (P = 0.02), and improving knowledge (P < 0.00001), but small significant effect sizes on lowering postoperative anxiety (P < 0.0001), depression (P = 0.03), and enhancing satisfaction (P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS This review indicates the feasibility of preoperative education in clinical use to enhance health outcomes of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Future studies need to explore knowledge outcomes in-depth and more innovative technologies in preoperative education delivery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Surgical patients face unique challenges with discharge instructions and retention. The volume of information provided to patients, frequently combined with sedatives and opioids, leads to failure to retain this crucial information needed for home care. The purpose of this project was to implement a preoperative teaching intervention to provide written and verbal discharge instructions in the preoperative area before the administration of anesthetic agents to improve patient retention of information, and improve percentile ranking on the Outpatient Ambulatory Surgery- Consumer Assessment of Health Care Providers and Systems (OAS-CAHPS) survey. DESIGN Cross-sectional descriptive METHODS: An additional educational intervention was implemented to provide discharge instructions in the preoperative area. Data was collected from the Press-Ganey database on patient responses to questions 13, 14, 15, 17, 19, and 21 and the global discharge domain scores of the OAS-CAHPS survey over a period of 12 weeks. This data was compared to the patient responses to the same questions over the same date range in the year time prior. FINDINGS Statistical analysis demonstrated significant change in the percentile rank scores for the intervention period (P = .0024). Average percentile rank change on discharge domain questions was an increase by 50 points. Patient and staff feedback further demonstrated value to the intervention. CONCLUSIONS Providing discharge instructions in the preoperative area in addition to providing instructions immediately before discharge can improve the percentile rankings associated with OAS-CAHPS questions related to discharge.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The older population is growing and with this growth there is a parallel rise in the operations performed on this vulnerable group. The perioperative pain management strategy for older adults is unique and requires a team-based approach for provision of high-quality surgical care. METHODS Literature search was performed using PubMed in addition to review of relevant protocols and guidelines from geriatric, surgical, and anesthesia societies. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses, randomized trials, observational studies, and society guidelines were summarized in this review. MANAGEMENT The optimal approach to a pain management strategy for older adults undergoing surgery involves addressing all phases of perioperative care. For example, preoperative assessment of a patient's cognitive function and presence of chronic pain may impact the pain management plan. Consideration should be also given to intraoperative strategies to improve pain control and minimize both the dose and side effects from opioids (e.g. regional anesthetic techniques). Postoperative pain control (e.g. under or over treatment of pain) may impact the development of elderly-specific complications such as postoperative delirium and functional decline. Finally, pain management does not stop after the older adult patient leaves the hospital. Both discharge planning and post-operative clinic follow-up provide important opportunities for collaboration and intervention. CONCLUSIONS An opioid-sparing pain management strategy for older adults can be accomplished with a comprehensive and collaborative interdisciplinary strategy addressing all phases of perioperative care.

Abstract
Although meta-analyses have examined the association between patient education and health, the validity and quality of this evidence have not been comprehensively assessed. This second order meta-analysis combined previous meta-analyses that examined the effectiveness of patient education on health outcomes as an overall weighted grand mean d¯¯. Further, measures of methodological quality, meaningful variability across first order meta-analyses, and evidence for publication bias were examined. Forty meta-analyses were identified, investigating 156 associations between patient education and health summarizing data from over 776 studies including more than 74.947 patients. Quantitative analyses showed that patient education positively affects health outcomes with d¯¯ = 0.316 (95% CI [0.304, 0.329]). Summarizing data exclusively from randomized controlled trials indicated a causal effect. Patient education was effective for patients with neoplasms, diabetes, mental and behavioral disorders, diseases of the circulatory system, the respiratory system, and the musculoskeletal system. Patient education was effective in the reduction of medication use, pain, and visits to medical facilities, and significantly improved physiological, physical, psychological outcomes, and patients' general function. Overall, the findings reveal firm evidence for the effectiveness of patient education on health outcomes. However, theory-based interventions are lacking and need to be implemented to enable a successful transfer from theory to practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart surgery is a source of high levels of emotional distress for the patient. If the stress experience is not adequately compensated, it can have a negative impact on postoperative recovery, as can untreated comorbid mental disorders. METHODS A selective literature review on emotional distress and mental comorbidities in heart surgery patients and a scoping review on the spectrum and effectiveness of perioperative psychological interventions to compensate and reduce the stress experience. RESULTS Mental factors such as depressive symptoms or anxiety disorders are associated with an elevated risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients treated for heart disease. Mental comorbidities occur more frequently in these patients than in the general population. Following the manifestation of chronic heart disease (CHD), for example, 15-20% of the patients display severe depressive disorders. A few psychotherapeutic interventions to reduce anxiety and depression, emotional distress, consumption of analgesics, and extubation time have been found effective, with low to moderate evidence quality. Many different psychological interventions have proved useful in clinical practice, including multimodal, multiprofessional interventions incorporating medications, education, sports, and exercise as well as psychosocial therapy including stress management. Individual psychotherapy during the period of acute inpatient treatment after myocardial infarction is also effective. CONCLUSION Because psychosocial factors are important, the current guidelines recommend systematic screening for mental symptoms and comorbidities in advance of heart transplantation or the implantation of ventricular assist devices (VAD). Acute psychotherapeutic interventions to reduce mental symptoms can be offered in the perioperative setting.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the quality of life in patients with endometrial carcinoma and provide theoretical basis for nursing care. DESIGN In this study, 69 patients diagnosed with endometrial carcinoma from 2016-2018 were included in the cohort. METHODS Sixty-nine patients from our hospital who underwent endometrial cancer surgeries were selected. The SF-36 was used to investigate and analyse the patients' quality of life in the first, second and third months after their operations. Questionnaires were administered to analyse the factors affecting postoperative quality of life. RESULTS Quality of life for the second and third months was obviously better than that for the first month after the operation (p < .05). Based on multivariate regression analysis, we found that patients with higher family income had better quality of life after surgery(p < .05). These results can provide some guidance for daily nursing work after endometrial cancer operation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite increased attention, acute and persistent post-operative pain are not treated efficiently and interventions against acute pain are therefore of clinical importance and should be welcomed. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness of wound infiltration with 0.5% bupivacaine for pain management in the immediate post-operative period in patients that underwent cardiac surgery with sternotomy. DESIGN The study was performed employing a single-centre nonrandomized experimental design to evaluate a prospective cohort of patients recruited from June to December of 2017. METHODS A single-centre study with a non-randomized experimental design compared the pain perceived by 137 patients undergoing to cardiac surgery within which 68 patients who received infiltration of bupivacaine and 69 patients received infiltration with saline solution. Pain measures were made with the numeric rating scale (NRS) at 2, 12, 24, and 48 hours. Socio-demographic and clinical variables were included too and descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS A statistically significant difference was found between the means of the NRS scores in favour of the intervention group. Cohen's d showed a significant effect size. NRS scores were grouped into NRS ≥4 or NRS <4 and similar results were found. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed the absence of confounding factors that could call results into question. CONCLUSION Subcutaneous infiltration of 0.5% bupivacaine in the surgical site of patients who have undergone cardiac surgery showed clinically and statistically significant pain relief compared with patients who received saline infiltration throughout the first 12 hours after surgery. This intervention provides promising preliminary results that, alone or in conjunction with other nursing interventions, could constitute an important therapeutic tool for this area of nursing clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Holistic biopsychosocial care has been underemphasized in perioperative pathway designs. The importance and a cost-effective way of implementing biopsychosocial care to improve postoperative pain and facilitate surgical convalescence are not well established, despite the recent popularization of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programs. OBJECTIVE We have explored the evidence and rationale of environmental enrichment (EE) as a complementary multimodal psychosocial care pathway to reduce postoperative pain, optimize patient recovery and improve existing weaknesses in surgical care. METHODS We conducted a database search to identify and grade potential EE techniques for their evidence quality and consistency in the management of acute postoperative pain, perioperative anxiety and the etiologically comparable acute procedural or experimental pain. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS The introduction of music, virtual reality, educational information, mobile apps, or elements of nature into the healthcare environment can likely improve patients' experience of surgery. Compared with traditional psychological interventions, EE modalities are voluntary, therapist-sparing and more economically sustainable. We have also discussed practical strategies to integrate EE within the perioperative workflow. Through a combination of sensory, motor, social and cognitive modalities, EE is an easily implementable patient-centered approach to alleviate pain and anxiety in surgical patients, create a more homelike recovery environment and improve quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although a transitional approach promoting continuity of care is warranted to prevent chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) and opioid misuse, there is limited research examining interventions targeting the subacute phase after cardiac surgery. Contextual multi-level factors may explain this scarcity. AIMS The purpose of this study was to explore the potential implementation of a nursing intervention to prevent CPSP in the subacute phase by describing nurses' viewpoints of current barriers and facilitators. DESIGN A descriptive qualitative study was conducted using secondary data analysis. SETTINGS A Web-based survey was used along with in-person interviews. PARTICIPANTS 75 perioperative nurses. METHODS Qualitative data from individual interviews (n=10) and open-ended responses to a survey (n=65) regarding the intervention's acceptability were used. Content analysis was conducted using a deductive approach. RESULTS The introduction of nurses from various clinical settings to a new intervention allowed reflection on current practice and represented a shift toward a preventive approach. The main barrier expressed was the lack of communication and continuity of care between clinical settings. Several policy implications were outlined such as increasing the involvement of rehabilitation programs and strengthening collaboration between pain specialists and primary care providers. CONCLUSIONS Based on perceptions of nurses involved at different stages of the continuum, the findings provide a preliminary picture of clinical challenges and potential avenues for the prevention of CPSP in the subacute phase after cardiac surgery. An expanded pain management nursing role in primary care would allow earlier interventions and contribute to the prevention of CPSP for a tremendous number of patients undergoing surgeries.

Abstract
Enhanced Recovery Programs (ERPs) are protocols involving the whole patient surgical journey. These protocols are based on multimodal, multidisciplinary, evidence-based, and patient-centered approaches aimed at improving patient recovery after a surgical intervention. Such programs have shown striking positive results in different surgical specialties. However, only a few research groups have incorporated preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative evidence-based interventions in bundles used to standardize care and build cardiac surgery ERPs. The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Society recently published evidence-based recommendations for perioperative care in cardiac surgery. Their recommendations included 22 perioperative interventions that may be part of any cardiac ERP. However, various components integrated in already-published cardiac ERPs were neither graded nor reported in these recommendations. The goals of the current review are to present published cardiac ERPs and their effects on patient outcomes and reported components incorporated into these ERPs and to discuss the objectives and scope of cardiac ERPs.

Abstract
The psychological impact of critical illness is far reaching, affecting patients and their loved ones. Family members face a multitude of stressors, ranging from concerns about death or permanent disability to stress over health care costs and lost wages. Patients are at risk for developing post-intensive care syndrome. Professional groups and patient safety organizations have crafted family-centered care (FCC) models that support hospitalized patients and their families. There is a paucity of data on use of FCC in cardiothoracic intensive care units. This article discusses FCC models and why they are beneficial to the needs of families of postoperative cardiothoracic surgery patients.

Abstract
Aims To describe prevalence of symptoms of anxiety and depression in surgical patients at three time points: at hospital postsurgery (T1), 6 weeks (T2) and 6 months (T3) postdischarge from hospital; and detect situations and experiences that predict symptoms of anxiety and depression at T2 and T3. Design Prospective, explorative two-site follow-up study. Methods Patients having selected surgeries from January-July 2016 were invited to participate. Final participation was 390 patients. Participation involved answering questionnaires, including the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). A stepwise multiple linear regression model was employed to calculate predictors of anxiety and depression. Results The proportion of patients presenting with moderate-to-severe anxiety or depression ranged from 5.4%-20.2% at different times. Major predictors of anxiety at both times were not feeling rested upon awakening and higher scores on HADS-Anxiety at T1 and T2 and at T2 also experiencing more distressing postoperative symptoms. For depression, the major predictors were at both times higher scores on HADS-Depression at T2 and T3 and also at T2 not feeling rested upon awakening and at T3 reporting delayed or very delayed recovery.The four models explained from 43.9%-55.6% of the variance in symptoms of anxiety and depression. Our findings show that patients presenting with psychological distress at the hospital are in a vulnerable position. Also, that benefits of good sleep during the recovery should be emphasized during hospital stay.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of video-based nursing education on perioperative anxiety and depression. A total of 128 patients scheduled for minimally invasive gastrectomy were randomly divided into intervention (n = 64) and control (n = 64) group. The. The anxiety and depression scores, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and heart rate (HR) were assessed before the intervention, 1 h before surgery and 24 h after surgery. And the cortisol levels were measured before the intervention and 1 h before surgery. No significant difference was observed in baseline anxiety score, depression score, vital signs and cortisol level (P > 0.05). The anxiety level, depression level, SBP, DBP and HR of patients in intervention group was significantly lower than that in control group at 1 h before surgery and 24 hs after surgery (P < 0.05). The serum cortisol in the intervention group was also significantly lower than that in the control group 1 h before surgery (p < 0.001). Video-based nursing education was effective in decreasing the perioperative anxiety and depression of patients undergoing minimally invasive gastrectomy. It could also keep vital signs and serum cortisol levels in normal limits.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the current state of preoperative psychological preparation to improve outcomes after cardiac surgery. RECENT FINDINGS Preoperative psychosocial factors are associated with short- and long-term outcomes after cardiac surgery. There are several approaches to optimize patients' preoperative psychological status with promising effects on postoperative outcomes (e.g., less complications, improved quality of life). Preoperative psychological preparation often aims to improve patients' knowledge or social support and to modify and optimize expectations and illness beliefs. Preoperative psychological preparation is gaining importance for cardiac surgery. However, patients' psychological status still does not get as much attention as it deserves. Preoperative psychological preparation seems to have positive effects on postoperative outcomes. Since overall evidence is still weak, further studies are warranted to understand which intervention works best for whom and why.

Abstract
Aim To implement recommendations for oral hygiene before elective open-heart surgery in a thoracic surgery ward and to evaluate whether the number of patients who needed to be treated with antibiotics postoperatively was reduced. Background Healthcare systems are challenged to implement initiatives that reduce the development of nosocomial infections, to offer patients a safe and cost-efficient treatment and to reduce the use of antibiotics. Previous interventions have focused on staff behaviour in reducing postoperative infections. In this study, patients were recommended to carry out oral hygiene as recommended in a clinical guideline. Methods A quasiexperimental design with a control and an intervention group was used. Information on adherence to the recommendation was collected at admission. All medical information and prescriptions of antibiotics were obtained from patients’ medical records. Data were reported as intention to treat. Results Altogether 972 patients (506 controls and 466 interventions) were included in the study. Of the intervention patients, 405 (86.9%, 95% CI 83.3 to 89.8) reported that they had adhered to the oral hygiene recommendation. 64 (12.6%) control patients and 36 (7.7%) in the intervention group (p=0.015) were treated with antibiotics postoperatively. Conclusions It was feasible to involve patients in a programme for oral hygiene and thereby reduce the number of patients needing antibiotics after open-heart surgery and this might contribute to reducing costs.

Abstract
Background Catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD), secondary to catheterization of urinary bladder is distressing. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of preoperative education on CRBD with image illustration for alleviating CRBD. Methods Sixty adult male patients, undergoing elective colonal and rectal surgery, were randomized to receive tetracaine mucilage instilled into the urethra and applied to the catheter (tetracain group), or receive tetracaine mucilage in combination with image illustration on CRBD (image group) before urethral catheterization. The incidence and severity of CRBD were assessed at 0.5, 1, 2, and 6 h after patients’ extubation. The severity of postoperative pain, incidence of postoperative agitation and other adverse events were also recorded. Results Patients in image group reported remarkably less CRBD than those in tetracaine group at 0.5,1, 2 and 6 h after extubation (20, 20, 6.7 and 6.7% v.s. 60, 73.3, 53.3 and 53.3%, respectively, P<0.01). Severe CRBD was not reported in either group. However, the incidence of moderate CRBD was significantly lower in image group, with 6.7% at 1 h and thereafter none occurred, compared to 6.7% at 0.5 h, and increasing to 20% at 1 h, 2 h and 6 h in tetracaine group, respectively. Moreover, patients in image group suffered less moderate to severe postoperative pain than that of tetracaine group (13.3% v.s. 40.0% at 1 h, P = 0.039, 33.3% v.s. 60% at 2 h and 6 h, P = 0.038). Conclusions Preoperative education on uretheral catheterization via image illustrations could enhance the effect of tetracaine mucilage in reducing both the incidence and severity of CRBD.

Abstract
Background Cardiac surgeries rank among the most frequent surgical procedures and present a risk of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP). A continuum approach is required to prevent the development of CPSP. As a first step, a tailored web-based intervention was developed and successfully tested to tackle pain management during hospitalization. Before proceeding to further development, preliminary acceptability of the intervention including the postdischarge phase must be evaluated. Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine nurses’ perception of a tailored Web-based intervention for pain management in the early recovery phase. The objectives were to evaluate intervention’s acceptability and to identify ways to enhance its acceptability. Methods A parallel mixed methods approach was used to assess the acceptability of the intervention in the early recovery phase (first month after surgery). Results In total, 249 participants completed the online survey and 10 participants were individually interviewed. Overall, the intervention was rated as acceptable. No difference was found in acceptability ratings by demographics. The intervention was rated as appropriate to very much appropriate by 79% of participants. Although nurses seemingly would recommend it to their patients, they did not perceive that their patients would be as highly willing to use it. Interviews highlighted several strengths of the intervention, such as postoperative pain awareness, customization of content, and flexible dosage and schedule. However, the main weakness was related to patient adherence. Opting for a hybrid format and integrating individual preferences could enhance the coaching experience. Conclusion The innovative intervention was judged as acceptable for pain management in the early recovery phase. Considering that the intervention has demonstrated positive effects on the pain experience in the first week after cardiac surgery, it seems logical to explore its potential impact after discharge on the transition to CPSP.
