Objective: To evaluate the impact of motivational interviewing (MI) on the illness perception in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: Totally 160 patients after PCI were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in the control group (n=85) received routine education, while patients in the intervention group (n=75) were received 4 times MI (during hospitalization, before discharge, 1 month after discharge, 3 months after discharge), 20 min for each time. Illness perception was appraised before and after the intervention in both groups. Results: The mean scores of illness perception in the intervention group, including symptom perception, disease perception and cause perception, were 5.85±1.75, 3.65±0.66, 2.85±0.30, which were significantly higher than that of the control group after the intervention, 4.84±1.09, 2.92±0.61, 2.48±0.31, the differences were significantly statistical (t=2.248, 3.717, 3.926, all P<0.05). Conclusions MI is much more effective than routine education on the improvement of illness perception in patients after PCI.

【Objective】 To investigate the clinical staffs′ knowledge about blood transfusion and their demands, so as to provide evidence for arranging the content for continuing education of blood transfusion medicine. 【Methods】 A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the blood transfusion related knowledge of 652 clinical staffs from other cities or counties/districts in Shaanxi Province, who came to our hospital to attend meetings, further training and study from July to August 2019. 【Results】 Clinical stsffs investigated lacked a deep understanding of blood transfusion and blood donation related knowledge, and even were ignorant of certain knowledge. The awareness rate of relevant knowledge was the highest among doctors, followed by laboratory technicians and the lowest among nurses. 【Conclusion】 The awareness rate of blood transfusion related knowledge among medical staffs is relatively low, suggesting the training of blood transfusion related knowledge should be enhanced.
