Through comparing of the cultivation models for master and doctoral postgraduate of two schools of nursing in Hong Kong,the viewpoint that the relatively perfect cultivation models for nursing postgraduate in Hong Kong had been formed was pointed out.Reformation of exam-oriented admission requirements,rationalization of cultivation types,enrichment of cultivation directions as well as making cultivation objectives explicitly,curriculum optimized and evaluation system improved should be suggested and referenced by domestic nursing educational innovators.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of disabled elderly caregivers' resilience,and to provide evidence for further intervention studies.Method Totally 221 caregivers in several communities were investigated with self-design general questionnaire,Activity of Daily Living Scale (ADL),ConnerDavidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC) Chinese version,Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire(SCSQ),General Self-Efficacy Scale(GSES) and Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS).Results The caregivers' resilience score was 59.99 ± 15.86,at a medium level and lower compared with normal population (t =-5.07,P＜0.01).It was positively correlated with the positive coping(r=0.468,P＜0.01),general self-efficacy (r=0.546,P＜0.01)and perceived (r=0.372,P＜0.01).Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed the positive coping,self-efficacy and social support of caregivers were influencing factors of caregivers' resilience (P＜0.01).Conclusion Disabled elderly caregivers' resilience is lower than the general population,and implementation of the intervention should be taken according to different resilience levels at clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the abuse tendency of disabled elderly caregivers and analyze its causes.Methods With the convenience sampling method,The main caregivers of 300 disabled elderly people were investigated by the general questionnaire, Activities Daily Living Scale (ADLs) and Caregiver Abuse Screen (CASE) in Guangzhou. Results The degree of disability of the elderly was moderate to severe degree.The average score of the elderly caregiver′s propensity for abuse tendency was(3.3 ± 2.3).178 (59.4 %, 178/300) of the elderly caregivers have abuse tendency (the average score was more than 3). Conclusion Caregivers′ abuse tendency against the elderly is high. The situation of the elderly is not optimistic.

Objective To explore the effect of uremic clearance granule combined with losartan potassium on the microinflammation status and peritoneal function in patients underwent peritoneal dialysis (PD).Methods A total of 60 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who were admitted in our hospital from August 2014 to February 2016 for continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) were included in the study and randomized into observation group and control group.The patients in the two groups were performed with CAPD.The patients in the control group were orally administrated with losartan potassium tablets.On this basis,the patients in the observation group were given uremic clearance granules.After 1-year treatment,the efficacy was evaluated.PET was performed in the beginning and at the end and 24 h urine volume and 24 h ultrafiltration volume were recorded.Meanwhile,RRF was determined.Hs-CRP,IL-6,TNF-α,TGF-β1,VEGF,and FN were detected.Results RRF,24h urine volume and 24h ultrafiltration volume in 1 year after treatment in the two groups were significantly reduced compared with treatment before (P ＜ 0.05),while PET was significantly elevated (P ＜ 0.05).The reduced degree of RRF,24 h urine volume and 24 h ultrafiltration volume in 1 year after treatment in the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.0 5),and the elevated degree of PET was significantly less than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Hs-CRP,IL-6,and TNF-α in 1 year after treatment in the two groups was significantly reduced compared with treatment before (P ＜ 0.05).The reduced degree of hsCRP,IL-6,and TNF-α in 1 year after treatment in the observation group was significantly greater than that in the control group (P ＜0.05).TGF-β1,VEGF,and FN in 1 year after treatment in the two groups were significantly elevated compared with treatment before (P ＜ 0.05).The elevated degree of TGF-β1,VEGF,and FN in 1 year after treatment in the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group.Conclusion Uremic clearance granule in combined with losartan potassium can effectively improve the microinflammation status,inhibit PF,protect the peritoneal function,and delay the reduction of RRF.

Objective To explore the influences of the teaching mode based on working process systematization on teaching results of geriatric nursing. Methods A totally of 209 students of 2013 higher vocational nursing major in four classes were selected and divided into the experimental group and the control group by simple random methods, among which the experimental group contains 103 students who were taught in teaching mode based on working process systematization while the control group contains 106 students who were taught in the traditional teaching mode. The new teaching mode′s design and development linked closely to working situations and tasks; adopt the teaching mode combining teaching, learning and practicing together aimed at the position requirements of old-age nursing service system at the core of the true clinic old-age nursing work-post-skills, which were based on nurse practice qualification. Students′ performance achievement between two groups after teaching were compared. The thinking ability of students was evaluated by judging thought scale, and the students′ evaluation of the new teaching method in the experimental group was accessed by a self-designed questionnaire based on working process systematization.Results After the implementation of teaching, there were significant differences between students in two groups in their performance in theory examination and practice examination based on statistics tests ( P<0. 05 ); after the intervention, there were statistically significance in the differences in students′critical thinking ability between two groups by comparison in term of each aspect such as reasoning, agree on the assumptions, explanation, deduction, discoursing ( t=7. 452, 6. 964,10.220,4.771,4.765;P<0.05);the students in the experimental group made a positive evaluation on the teaching method based on working process systematization.Conclusions The teaching method based on working process systematization is available for the teaching of geriatric nursing in higher vocational institutions, and is helpful for students to master professional skills, cultivate their spirit of innovation, strengthen their team spirit, communication skills, critical thinking ability and other qualities. This new method is worth learning in the teaching of geriatric nursing course in higher vocational colleges.

Objective To investigate the caregiver burden of primary caregivers of disabled elders in Guangzhou, and analyze its influencing factors.Methods Totally 221 primary caregivers of disabled elders in Guangzhou were investigated by the general information questionnaire, activities of daily living scale (ADL), the Conner-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC), Zarit burden interview (ZBI) and perceived social support scale (PSSS).Results The burden score of primary caregivers was (34.81±15.51), which was significantly higher than other caregivers (21.12±10.32) in China (t=13.048,P<0.01). Multiple linear regression showed that, the burden of primary caregivers were mainly affected by their resilience level, social support level, marital status, the amount of financial support that patients provided, and the disabled level of elders (β'= -0.219, -0.155, -0.157, 0.218, 0.202;P<0.05). All factors above explained 19.4% variance of the burden of caregivers.Conclusions The burdens of primary caregivers of disabled elders are in different level. Multiple factors directly influence the level of burden of caregivers and may indirectly reduce their quality of life. Hence, attention should be paid by the society and government.

Objective To explore the correlation between resilience and psychological status of main caregivers among disabled elderly of Guangzhou region.Methods From June 2015 to December 2015, a total of 300 main caregivers of disabled elders were investigated with the general information questionnaire, the Chinese version of Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), Activities Daily Living Scale (ADLS), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) by convenience sampling.Results The total score of resilience, standard score of anxiety and depression were (58.2±15.8), (49.05±10.5) and (51.73±11.52) respectively among main caregivers of disabled elders. The competence dimension of CD-RISC had negative correlations with anxiety (r=-0.260,P<0.01) and depression (r=-0.316,P<0.01) in main caregivers of disabled elders, and the toughness dimension was negatively correlated with the depressive symptoms (r=-0.147,P<0.05).Conclusions Main caregivers of disabled elderly of Guangzhou region are with poor resilience along with the high ratio of detection in anxiety and depression suggesting that the mental status is not optimistic.
