Abstract
BACKGROUND The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly affected various aspects of public health. The virus poses a particular threat to individuals with kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis and their caregivers. The present study investigated the experience of family caregivers of individuals undergoing hemodialysis about caring during the COVID-19 pandemic in Iran. METHODS This qualitative study was conducted with 17 family caregivers of individuals undergoing hemodialysis in Bojnurd, Iran using inductive qualitative content analysis. The participants were selected using convenience and purposive sampling method with maximum variation. Semi-structured interviews were used in data collection based on the interview guide. The data were analyzed with MAXQDA10. RESULTS The results culminated in the identification of a main category of the COVID-19 care burden on caregivers and two generic categories including the COVID-19 Overt (financial/constraining) care burden (subcategories: Non-adherence to Health Protocols, COVID-19 Financial Costs, COVID-19 Restrictions and Hemodialysis Appointments, and Decreased Caregiver Support during the COVID-19 Era), and the COVID-19 Covert (emotional/psychological) Care Burden (subcategories: Caregiver's Loneliness in the Care, Stress of Contracting COVID-19, Psychological Consequences of individuals undergoing hemodialysis Staying at Home, The burden of other Individuals' Expectations of the Caregiver, and Physical and emotional pressure on the Caregiver). CONCLUSION Caregivers during the COVID-19 period have experienced both overt and covert care burden. The results of this study can contribute to understanding the experiences of caregivers of individuals with chronic diseases such as kidney failure, in critical conditions like the COVID-19 pandemic, by healthcare teams and devising strategies and programs to support them.

Long Q, Yang M, Long J. Application of intelligent nursing system based on big data in maintenance hemodialysis patients. SLAS Technol 2024:100160. [PMID: 38901761 DOI: 10.1016/j.slast.2024.100160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) is one of the most important renal replacement therapies for patients with end-stage renal disease. However, long-term and frequent treatment not only damages the physiological functions of patients but also leads to serious economic burdens and mental stress. This can easily cause a series of psychological disorders in patients, resulting in severe rejection and fear of MHD. To reduce patient resistance and improve the quality of life of MHD, this article built an intelligent nursing system based on big data and then used the constructed intelligent nursing system to research MHD. Through experiments, it has been found that compared to self-efficacy intervention, intelligent nursing systems can control the concurrent rate of MHD patients below 14 %, and self-efficacy intervention methods can control the concurrent rate of MHD patients above 13 %. Moreover, using intelligent nursing systems can improve the ability of MHD patients to self-care. At the same time, before the use of intelligent nursing systems, the nursing satisfaction of MHD patients also varied greatly, with the overall satisfaction rate after use being 70 % higher than before. Using intelligent nursing systems can improve the satisfaction of MHD patients with nursing outcomes.

Abstract
Exposure to disasters and public health emergencies negatively affects mental health. Research documenting the psychosocial responses to these calamities in China increased dramatically after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. However, there is no comprehensive assessment of the available literature on China's mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) responses to these events. This scoping review systematically maps existing published research and grey literature sources regarding MHPSS to disasters and emergencies in China. We examined relevant literature in English and Chinese from six databases and official websites from Jan 1, 2000, to Aug 13, 2021, and included 77 full-text records in this review. The main types of interventions reported included a) stepped care intervention models, b) individual structured psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy, c) mental health education, d) psychological counselling, and e) government-based policy interventions. Most interventions were evaluated using quantitative methods that assessed the treatment of common mental disorders. The review found that rapid national mobilization, emphasis on resilience-strengthening interventions, and the widespread use of step-care models were essential components of reducing the adverse psychosocial effects of disasters. The review also identified remaining gaps, including a) a lack of integration of disaster-related services with the pre-existing health care system, b) inadequate supervision of MHPSS providers, and c) limited monitoring and evaluation of the services provided. These results show where additional research is needed in China to improve mental health services. It also provides a framework that other countries can adapt when developing and evaluating MHPSS policies and plans in response to disasters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mental health of dialysis patients during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been modulated by dialysis modality. Studies comparing mental health of in-center hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients during the first 2 years of the pandemic are lacking. METHODS We conducted repeated cross-sectional and multivariable regression analyses to compare the mental health of in-center hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients from March 2019 until August 2021 using data from the Dutch nOcturnal and hoME dialysis Study To Improve Clinical Outcomes. The study period was divided into one pre-pandemic and six 3-month pandemic periods (period 1-period 6). Mental health was assessed with the Mental Component Summary score of the 12-item Short Form health survey and mental symptoms of the Dialysis Symptom Index. RESULTS We included 1274 patients (968 on in-center hemodialysis and 306 on peritoneal dialysis). Mental Component Summary scores did not differ between in-center hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients. In contrast, in-center hemodialysis patients more often reported nervousness during period 3 (27% vs 15%, P = 0.04), irritability and anxiety during period 3 (31% vs 18%, P = 0.03, 26% vs. 9%, P = 0.002, respectively) and period 4 (34% vs 22%, P = 0.04, 22% vs 11%, P = 0.03, respectively), and sadness in period 4 (38% vs 26%, P = 0.04) and period 5 (37% vs 22%, P = 0.009). Dialysis modality was independently associated with mental symptoms. CONCLUSIONS In-center hemodialysis patients more often experienced mental symptoms compared to peritoneal dialysis patients from September 2020 to June 2021, which corresponds to the second lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic. Mental health-related quality-of-life did not differ between in-center hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients.

Abstract
Background and Purpose The COVID-19 pandemic can cause psychological distress, and hemodialysis patients with chronic kidney disease may be particularly vulnerable. The aim of this study is to investigate anxiety levels among patients undergoing hemodialysis during the COVID-19 pandemic and to explore the relationship between health literacy and anxiety. Methods This study recruited 149 hemodialysis patients from two hospitals between July 16th and July 31st, 2021. Patient data were collected using questionnaires on general characteristics, health literacy, generalized anxiety, and coronavirus disease-related anxiety. We used the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS) and the Korean version of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) scale to evaluate the anxiety symptoms of the patients. Statistical analyses were performed using descriptive statistics, t-test, Mann-Whitney U-test, one-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Walli's test and Spearman's rank correlation. Results The results showed that health literacy increased with decreasing age and increasing educational level among patients who source health information from the internet and among patients without comorbidities. Patients with comorbidities showed high levels of general anxiety. Patients who search for health information for ≥1 hour had high levels of coronavirus disease-related anxiety. Both CAS and GAD showed a significant negative correlation with the sub-domains of health literacy, except for critical health literacy. Conclusion The results of this study highlight the need for a follow-up study on whether health literacy programs will reduce the anxiety levels of patients undergoing hemodialysis during infectious disease outbreaks. In addition, provision of social support for patients with comorbidity is essential for reducing their anxiety levels during disease outbreaks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of refined management in the operation room on promoting postoperative recovery in patients undergoing sinusitis surgery via nasal endoscopy. METHODS In this retrospective study, the clinical data of 80 patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery were divided into study group (SG) and control group (CG) according to different nursing methods, with 40 cases in each group. The CG only received routine nursing, while the SG adopted refined management in addition to routine nursing. Postoperative pain, depression, anxiety, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups. RESULTS There was no significant difference in Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score between the two groups before operation (P>0.05). After operation, VAS of the SG (1.05±0.24) was significantly better than that of the CG (2.39±0.45), the nursing satisfaction rate of the SG (92.5%) was higher than that of the CG (65.0%), and the overall effective rate of nursing in the SG (95.0%) was higher than that of the CG (77.5%) (all P<0.05). The patients of SG had a lower rate of postoperative complications than CG patients (P<0.05). The operation time and postoperative recovery time of the SG were shorter than those of the CG, and the intraoperative blood loss was less than that of the CG. Smoking history, family history, dust mite allergy, pollen allergy, pet keeping, opening air conditioner use, airing of bed linen, and window ventilation were the main prognostic factors of patients with sinusitis (P<0.05). Family history, duration of immunotherapy, gender and complications were the factors affecting the prognosis of patients with sinusitis (P<0.05). The incidence of depression and anxiety in the SG were lower than those in the CG (P<0.05). The postoperative quality of life in the SG was better than that in the CG (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Refined nursing can effectively alleviate pain, improve patients' satisfaction of nursing, and also significantly improve patient's depression and anxiety in endoscopic sinus surgery.

Abstract
Chronic dialysis patients have an increased risk of severe COVID-19 infection-related complications. The aim of this study was to quantify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and physical activity levels of patients undertaking hemodialysis (HD). This was an observational study that compared data from two periods of time, before the COVID-19 pandemic vs pandemic. We used the Medical Outcomes Survey Short Form (SF-36) to measure the HRQoL and the Human Activity Profile (HAP) questionnaire was used to measure the physical activity. Data were analyzed with a mixed ordinal linear regression. A total of 27 eligible participants were interviewed during COVID-19 pandemic (median age 78 years). The linear regression model showed that the pandemic, after controlling for the covariates age, comorbidity, albumin, and hemoglobin, had a significant impact on the HRQoL. Physical function (-15.7) and social functioning subscales (-28.0) worsened (p = 0.001), and the physical component scale also showed a significant decrease (-3.6; p = 0.05). Time had a significant impact on the Human Activity Profile, with an average activity score diminished with the pandemic (-13.9; p = 0.003). The COVID-19 pandemic had a very negative impact on HRQoL and physical activity level of subjects undertaking hemodialysis. Interventions to improve HRQoL and activity levels of patients undertaking HD are recommended.

Abstract
Background A hemodialysis is a treatment option for patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). However, patients undergoing hemodialysis three times per week may experience psychological issues, including depression, which are highly prevalent among patients. Unfortunately, most healthcare providers fail to recognize the symptoms of depression due to overlap with other somatic symptoms; thus, depression remains undiagnosed. Objective This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of depression and compare the differences in depression symptoms according to the sociodemographic characteristics of patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis. Method A descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted from August to October 2021 with a total of 132 hemodialysis patients using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI II) questionnaire to examine symptoms of depression at multiple health centers in Jeddah. Descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, Post-hoc analysis using Conover tests were used for data analysis. Results The prevalence of depression in hemodialysis patients was 51.5%, 25.8%, 15.9%, and 6.8%, with minimal, mild, moderate, and severe symptoms, respectively. Depression exhibited a significant relationship with sex (p = 0.034), with females showing higher mean depression scores than males. Additionally, depression scores were statistically significant across the different levels of education (p = 0.019), with the mean depression scores significantly highest in subjects who had only primary school level of education. Furthermore, the most common symptoms associated with depression were found to be energy loss and fatigue. Conclusion Depression prevalence was relatively low among patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis, and a loss of energy and fatigue were the most common symptoms correlated with depression. Hence, nurses should be trained on how to routinely use psychological screening scales among patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
The influence of the nursing safety management in nursing quality of hemodialysis room was deeply analyzed through the evaluation index study of nursing quality in hemodialysis room. Sixty-two patients were selected from hemodialysis rooms as study samples, and 31 patients who had not carried out nursing safety management from September 2018 to September 2019 were selected as control samples. Thirty-one patients who underwent nursing safety management from September 2019 to September 2020 were included in the observation group. By comparing the samples of the control group and the observation group, it was found that the comprehensive score of adverse reaction risk nursing quality and nursing satisfaction score between the groups were significantly improved; P < 0.05. Nursing safety management can effectively reduce the quality of nursing in hemodialysis room and greatly reduce the occurrence of adverse risks.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and severity of mental health problems and sexual dysfunction in hemodialysis patients before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS A total of 84 hemodialysis patients were evaluated in terms of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) and Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). RESULTS Poor sleep quality (79.8%) and poor mental health status (62.7%) and higher likelihood of having depression (31.0 vs. 61.9%, p < 0.001) were noted. The IIEF-5 (10.5(5-25) vs. 7.5(5-23), p < 0.001) and FSFI (12(4-78) vs. 6(4-66), p < 0.001) scores were significantly decreased during the pandemic with an increase in the likelihood of having erectile dysfunction (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our findings indicate high prevalence of mental health issues, an impaired quality of life and an increase in prevalence and severity of suspected depression during pandemic in hemodialysis patients along with deterioration in erectile dysfunction among males.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) aggravates anxiety in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD), but it is still unclear how long this adverse effect will last. This study aims to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on the elevated anxiety symptoms of MHD patients 1 year after the outbreak. Assessment of elevated anxiety symptoms was performed on patients with MHD during early COVID-19 (February 17-February 29, 2020) and 1-year follow-up (March 1-March 13, 2021), and a total of 100 patients had completed face-to-face questionnaires at the first and 1-year follow-up. At the beginning of the outbreak, 40% of the patients with MHD had anxiety symptoms [self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) score ≥ 50], and 11% (SAS score: 60-69) and 2% (SAS score ≥ 70) of the patients had moderate and severe anxiety symptoms, respectively. Multivariate analysis shows that possibility of unaccompanied transfer, possibility of family members or themselves being infected in a hospital, added body temperature monitoring during dialysis, and increased medical procedures are the risk factors in elevated anxiety symptoms during early COVID-19. At the 1-year follow-up, the incidence of anxiety symptoms in the same group of patients declined to 28%, and all the patients had mild anxiety symptoms (SAS score: 50-59), which is significantly lower than that of the early COVID-19 pandemic with statistically significant difference (p = 0.003). Increased protective measures taken by the medical staves were the only risk factor in elevated anxiety symptoms during the 1-year follow-up. This study shows that COVID-19 has a direct impact on the deterioration of anxiety symptoms in patients with MHD. With the changes of the requirements for COVID-19 prevention and control, as well as the enhancement of propaganda and education of the pandemic and psychological care, the severity and risk factors of anxiety symptoms in the patients with MHD are changing. Thus, targeted interventions are suggested to improve the psychological endurance of the patients with MHD.

Research on the Effect of 5Why-Based Nursing Intervention in Blood Purification Nursing. JOURNAL OF HEALTHCARE ENGINEERING 2021; 2021:6535238. [PMID: 34608412 PMCID: PMC8487368 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6535238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2021] [Revised: 06/15/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
In order to explore the effectiveness of the 5Why-based nursing intervention method in blood purification nursing, this paper takes 108 patients from Changzhou Second Hospital in the past three years as an example for experimental analysis. Moreover, this paper uses mathematical statistics to group patients into groups, and the two groups of patients are comparable. After grouping, this paper conducts preexperiment processing and then conducts patient grooming through various basic tasks so that the test results have a certain degree of reliability. On this basis, this paper verifies the nursing intervention methods through controlled trials. Among them, the control group is treated with the hospital's conventional nursing methods and allowed patients to master self-nursing methods, while the test group is treated with 5Why-based nursing intervention on the basis of traditional nursing methods. Finally, this paper combines mathematical statistics to evaluate the effect of blood purification nursing. From the research results, it can be known that the 5Why-based nursing intervention method has certain effectiveness in blood purification nursing.
