Objective To evaluate the effects of clinical pathway combined with transitional care implemented by specialty nurses on patients with coronary heart disease after PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) therapy. Methods Totally 124 patients after PCI were divided into the experimental group and the control group with random digit table. Patients in the control group received routine education and follow- up during hospitalization and discharge period. The experimental group received clinical pathway combined with transitional care implemented by specialty nurses based on routine education. The level of patients′knowledge, attitude, practice and risk factors were compared between the two groups 6 and 12 months after discharge. Results There were 55 patients in each group completed the research ultimately. The Coronary Heart Disease Knowledge Questionnaire in the experimental group scored (57.61 ±8.77), (81.27±6.88) and (88.47±6.10),while the control group scored (59.71±7.32),(68.61±7.12) and (76.85±7.70), after repeated measurement analysis of variance, F=74.71, 14.52, P<0.01. The scores of General Self- Efficacy Scale (GSES) and Coronary Artery Disease Self- Efficacy Scale (CSMS) between two groups at three time points showed statistical significance, F=5.40, 14.52, P<0.05 or 0.01. The risk factors of coronary heart disease such as total cholesterol, triacylglycerol, hemoglobin A1c, body mass index, systolic pressure and diastolic pressure were statistically different between two groups except for high density lipoprotein cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol, F=5.82, 20.32, 4.14, 4.15, 4.99, 7.15, P<0.05 or 0.01. Conclusions Clinical pathway combined with transitional care implemented by specialty nurses can improve the knowledge-attitude- practice level of patients, help to control the risk factors of coronary heart disease. It is an effective heart rehabilitation model for patients after PCI.

Objective To explore the mediation role of emotional labor in the relationship between workplace ostracism and emotional exhaustion, aiming to provide practical implications to manage workplace ostracism. Methods Using time-lagged survey, a total of 370 valid responses were collected at two time points from the nurses in a general hospital in Chengdu, including the data of demographics, workplace ostracism, emotional labor and emotional exhaustion. Structural equation model (SEM) was employed to test the relationships. Results The means of key variables were: workplace ostracism 1.30 (1.00, 1.73),surface acting 1.50 (1.00,2.25), deep acting 3.00 (1.33, 4.00), and emotional exhaustion 3.53 (2.60, 4.20). There was a significant positive relationship between workplace ostracism and surface acting (P<0.01), just as well as the relationship with deep acting and emotional exhaustion (P<0.01). Surface acting led to emotional exhaustion of nurses (P<0.01) and mediated the positive relationship between workplace ostracism and emotional exhaustion. Deep acting was not significantly related to emotional exhaustion (P>0.05). SEM analysis demonstrated an acceptable and reasonable model fit. Conclusions The surveyed nurses reported a medium and low level of perceived workplace ostracism and emotional labor, but a high level of emotional exhaustion. Workplace ostracism has a positive effect on nurses' emotional exhaustion via surface acting. Hospital administration should take measure to prevent and intervene in workplace ostracism, provide organizational and supervisory supports to nurses, and particularly enhance nurse's emotional management skills and encourage use of deep acting strategy to minimize the detrimental effects of workplace ostracism.
