Objective To investigate the status of professional identity of nursing undergraduates in different grades and to search for their different professional identity level, so as to establish a pertinent method on nursing education for promoting nursing undergraduates′professional identity. Methods By stratified sampling, a total of 286 nursing undergraduates from four grades in Dalian Medical University were surveyed by general information questionnaire and the Professional Identification Scale for Nurses. Results The average total scores of the professional identity of nursing undergraduates were (107.29±15.01) points. There was significant difference in the total score and the five dimensions of professional identity,F=5.625, 5.258, 7.459, 4.182, 6.891, 7.299, P<0.01. Professional identity score was on the rise along with the grade growth, but the score of grade two was significant lower than the other three grades, and the score showed an increase in grade three; grade, whether profession was consistent with their own interests or not, the reasons of choosing the profession were the important factors affecting professional identity of nursing undergraduates. Conclusions The professional identity score of nursing undergraduates is in medium level and remains to be improved. It is suggested that nursing educators should take corresponding measures according to different grades, own interest and physical and mental characteristics of the students, so as to improve their professional identity and lay the foundation for stability and sustainable development of the nursing team in the future.

Objective To do a longitudinal study of nursing undergraduates′ humanistic care ability in different period of clinical practice, and analyze its trend, aiming to provide reference about how to intervene to enhance the nursing undergraduates' humanistic care ability. Methods A total of 67 nursing undergraduates were investigated about their humanistic care ability with the Care Ability Inventory (Caring Ability Inventory, CAI) at the beginning, middle and end of the internship. Results The scores of seniors′ humanistic care ability at the beginning, middle and end of the internship were 194.97±22.93, 192.18±26.87, 187.24±22.15, and there was a statistically significant difference among the three time points (F=3.234, P<0.05), there was significant difference of the dimension of courage in different periods (F=7.511, P<0.01). Conclusions There is a downtrend of nursing undergraduates′humanistic care ability in different stages of clinical practice, and we suggest that nursing educators and administrators should consider the characteristics of different periods in the clinical practice, and then do a targeted training to foster nursing students′humanistic care ability.

Objective Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) provides a treatment for patients with acute heart-lung failure. However, as an invasive procedure, it associated with high incidence of complications. It is important to a-vert and reduce the complications for improving the success rate in critically ill patients. We investigate the complications associated with ECMO after cardiac surgery and their management. Methods Clinical data from 117 postoperative patients[32 male, mean age (48.7 ± 16.5) years]supported with ECMO in the cardiovascular intensive care unit( ICU) from March 2005 to June 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. The cardiac operations they had undergone included coronary artery bypass grafting (n = 20), coronary artery bypass grafting and remodeling of left ventricle(n =9), coronary artery bypass grafting and valvular operation(n =5), repair of ventricular septal perforation following acute myocardial infarction(n =2), valvular operation( n = 46), heart/lung transplantation (n = 20/1), correction of congenital heart defects ( n = 10), and aortic operations ( n = 4). Venoarterial bypass was established in 110 patients by cannulation of the right atrium and femoral artery, and that of the right atrium and ascending aorta in 5 cases. Left atrial drainage to ECMO was added in 2 cases. Venovenous bypass was established in 2 patients with hypoxemia following cardiac surgery. Heparin was infused for maintaining the activated coagulation time (ACT) at 160 to 200 seconds for centrifugal pump(114 cases),and 200 to 250 seconds for roller pump(3 cases) to avoid thrombotic events until decannulation was achieved. Results The mean ECMO duration was 61 hours (range 3 to 225 hours). 48(41.0% ) patients died, 18 of them died of complications after weaning from circulatory assistant successfully. Complications occurred in 74 (63.2% ) patients included reoperation for hemostasis (n = 24), renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy (n =29), nosocomial infections ( n = 32) , ischemia in the extremities(n = 5), plasma leakage of oxygenators ( n = 29), gastroenteral hemorrhage ( n = 14), hemolysis ( n = 7 ), neurological complications ( n = 4) and centrifugal pump failure (n =1). Conclusion Bleeding is an early complication associated with ECMO support. The risk of nosocomial infection, renal failure and plasma leakage of oxygenators increases with the duration of ECMO support.

Objetctive To summarize the associated complications with circulatory support device,and provide reference for chnical practice.Method A total of 8306 consecutive patients who underwent open heart surgery,in Department of Post-operation Intensive Care Unit of the Cardiac Surgery,Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University,was retrospectively studied from January 2005 to February 2007.And the clinical data of 246 patients including 63 female and 183 male patients with mean age 56.7±14.2 years supported with various circulatory support devices for perioperative cardiorespiratory function failure in ICU were analyzed.Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) was used in 3 patients by the cannulation of the left alritan and ascending aorta.The extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) was established in 48 patients for postoperative cardiorespiratory function failure.The vencarterial bypass was established by cannulation of the right atrium in 41 patients and femoral artery and of venovenons in 2 patients,and of the right atrium and ascending aorta in 5 cases,lntra-aortic balloon pumping(I-ABP)was performed via the femoral artery either percutaneonsly by the Seldinger technique in 195 patients.The cardiac operations included coronary artery bypass grafting (n=170),coronary artery bypass grafting with romoldingof left ventricle (n = 22),coronary artery bypass grafting with valvular operation (n=10),valvular operation (n=27),heart transplantation(n=8),correction of congenital heart defects(n=6),aortic operations(n=2).The duration of circulatory support ranged from 4 to 451 hours.Correlative complications of 3 kinds of circulatory support device were compared and repair of ventricular septal perforation in the wake of acute myocardial infarction (n=1).Results Seventy-eight (31.7%) patients died.Seventy-one(28.9% ) patients devdoped various complications including infection(n=27),renal failure required renal rephcement therapy (n=27),re-exploration for bleeding(n=24),haemolysis(n=6),limb ischemia(n=15),neurological complications(n=6),oxygenator failure(n=7) Conchusions The improvement of management to reduce complications may result in improved outcomes of patients supported with circulatory support devices.

Objective To evaluate the effect of the collaboration care model on posttraumatic growth and resilience in patients with breast cancer.Methods 70 patients who were diagnosed with breast cancer in department of Breast Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University were assigned into two groups by random number table.32 patients who completed the research in the experimental group received collaboration care while 31 patients who completed the research in the control group received routine care both for there months.The patients were investigated with the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) before and after intervention.Results After the intervention,there were significant differences in scores of posttraumatic growth [(63.83±11.87) scores vs.(60.33±10.09) scores,t=2.384] and resilience [(66.52±15.23) scores vs.(61.33±10.09) scores,t=2.472] between the two groups (P＜0.05).And also there were significant differences of posttraumatic growth scores before and after intervention in the experimental group [(56.24±10.01) scores vs.(63.83±11.87) scores,t=-3.988,P＜ 0.01] and the control group [(56.68±10.32) scores vs.(60.33±10.09) scores,t=-2.426,P＜0.05].Differences of resilience also existed in the experimental group [(61.28±14.40) scores vs.(66.52±15.25) scores,t=-3.225,P＜0.01] and the control group [(63.97±17.66) scores vs.(61.33±10.09) scores,t=-2.370,P＜0.05].Conclusions Collaboration care model can significantly improve the level of patients' posttraumatic growth and resilience.

Objective To observe the level of supportive care need and quality of life in patients postoperation for breast cancer and ac-cepting chemotherapy, and the relationship between them. Methods From September, 2015 to June, 2016, 235 patients with breast cancer af-ter surgery were conveniently sampled, and investigated with the general situation questionnaire, Supportive Care Need Survey Short-form (SCNS-SF34) and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B). Results A total of 230 patients were analyzed. Patients self-reported to need supportive care in all dimensions of SCNS-SF34, and the most frequency was in the health information (31.30％). The score of FACT-B was (93.25±23.53), that needed further improvement. The needs of supportive care in each dimension negatively correlat-ed with the scores of FACT-B in the dimensions (|r|>0.168, P<0.05) except society/family and function. Conclusion The patients with breast cancer need variety of supportive care, which may impact their quality of life.

Objective To explore the effect of postoperative progressive resistance training (PRT) on the upper limb function in breast cancer patients. Methods 66 breast cancer patients were randomly divided into intervention group (n=33) and control group (n=33). The intervention group accepted a 12-week PRT and the control group accepted the routine training since 4-6 weeks postoperative as they admitted to hospital for their first chemotherapy. All the patients received a same content of health education. Results The grip strength, range of motion of abduction and flexion of shoulder were more in the intervention group than in the control group after intervention (P<0.01). Conclusion PRT can effectively improve the function of upper limbs in breast cancer patients.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of different dones of urapidil in preventing pituitrin-induced cardiovascular responses in patients undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy.MethodsSixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 27-41 yr,weighing 55-65 kg,scheduled for elective laparoscopic myomectomy under general anesthesia,were randonly divided into 4 groups (n =15 each):control group (group C) and urapidil 0.3,0.5 and 0.8 mg/kg groups (groups U1-3).Urapidil 0.3,0.5 and 0.8 mg/kg were injected intravenously in U1-3 groups respectively,while normal saline 5 ml was given in group C.The mixture of pituitrin 6 U and normal saline 20 ml was injected into the site of hysteromyoma 5 min later.The operation was then started.BIS value was maintained at 45-55.The occurrence of cardiovascular responses was recorded.ResultsThe incidences of cardiovascular responses were 100％,67％,40％ and 20％ in groups C and U1-3 respectively.The incidence of cardiovascular responses was significantly lower in groups U1-3 than in group C,and in groups U2.3 than in group U1 ( P ＜ 0.01 ).There was no significant difference in the incidence of cordiovascular responses between U2 and U3 groups (P ＞ 0.05).ConclusionUrapidil can prevent pituitrin-induced cardiovascular responses in patients undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy and the optimal dose is 0.5 mg/kg.
