Objective To investigate the level about illness perception in patients with coronary heart disease. Methods From July to De-cember, 2015, 198 inpatients with coronary heart disease who were admitted into hospitals twice or more were enrolled. They were assessed with Illness Perception Questionnaire-Revised (IPQ-R). Results The score of common symptoms was (4.55±1.64). The symptoms, for exam-ple, chest pains, uncomfortable feeling in chest, cold sweat, flustered and breathlessness were most frequently experienced and most often identified. For the illness perception part, the scores on subscales of treatment control and consequences were higher than 3, which was the neutral point. For the cause dimension part, the highest scores was (3.38 ± 0.90) in diet or eating habits, followed by (3.38 ± 0.89) in aging. Among these factors, immune factors had the highest mean score, followed by stress factor. Conclusion The level of illness perception in pa-tients with coronary heart disease was in the middle level, and individual differences were obvious. The awareness of the disease and the in-tervention of the patient should be strengthened.

Objective To study the clinical features and treatment of cervical spondylosis with dissociated motor loss in upper extremity. Methods Data analysis was done in 10 patients with cervical spondylosis with dissociated motor loss in upper extremity, in aspects of symptoms, sign, radiologic feature, electromyogram and treatment. Results There are 2 subtypes of cervical spondylosis with dissociated motor loss in upper extremity: Keegan and Non-Keegan types. The patients with Keegan type of cervical spondylosis manifested weakness and atrophy in the upper extremity, and no radicular pain was reported. The Non-Keegan type is in fact a combination of radicular and spinal insult in the cervical region. Our clinical practice showed that surgical operation was preferred to the conservative treatment for patients with this disease. Conclusion A well understanding of this disease is of great importance for avoiding mistakes in diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Objective:To explore the effect of mild cognitive impairment on the subjective well-being of the elderly and the mediating role of self-efficacy in it. To provide an effective basis for health management and clinical intervention in the elderly with mild cognitive impairment.Methods:A total of 164 patients with mild cognitive impairment from December 2018 to June 2019 were surveyed by the General Self-efficacy Scale, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale, and the Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of Happiness Scale.Results:The overall score of self-efficacy was 21.41±3.98, and subjective well-being was 26.44±7.35. There was a positive correlation among cognitive function, self-efficacy and subjective well-being, except that there was no significant correlation between self-efficacy and cognitive function( r values were 0.263-0.687, P<0.01). Self-efficacy played a part in mediating between cognitive function and subjective well-being in patients with mild cognitive impairment, accounting for 37.8% of the total effect. Conclusions:Mild cognitive impairment can also have a negative impact on the subjective well-being of the elderly. Among them, self-efficacy plays a particularly important role in mediating. Interventions about self-efficacy on the elderly with mild cognitive impairment may have more significant effects.

Objective:To explore the influence of mindfulness meditation intervention on the professional identity and turnover tendency of the second victim of nurses.Methods:The convenience sampling method was used to select the second victim of 46 nurses who experienced medical adverse events within six months from January to June 2019 in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, and then an 8 weeks of mindfulness meditation intervention was carried out for them. In the entire intervention process, a self-control study was conducted, the Second Victim Experience and Support Scale (SVSET) and the Nurse Occupational Identity Scale were used to assess nurses' turnover intentions, absence and professional identity before the intervention and at 2 hours, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks after the intervention.Results:By analyzing the data, the results showed that after the mindfulness meditation intervention, the second victim of the nurse before intervention, 2h, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks of intervention were 3.28±0.87, 3.20±0.83, 2.85±0.92, 2.71±0.87, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 6.609, P<0.05). Before and after the intervention of the sense of grasp in professional identity were 4.91±0.83, 5.47±0.81, 5.83±0.91, 5.94±0.80, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 20.973, P<0.01). Consensus before and after intervention were 4.61±0.78, 5.09±0.85, 5.54±1.12, 5.76±0.85, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 22.237, P<0.01). The meaningful sense before and after intervention were 4.38±1.03, 5.04±0.75, 5.44±0.86, 5.59±0.76, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 23.656, P<0.01). The self-efficacy before and after intervention were 4.71±0.82, 5.33±0.63, 5.83±0.84, 5.90±0.77, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 28.866, P<0.01). The self-determination before and after intervention were 4.43±0.97, 5.06±0.81, 5.59±0.91, 5.62±0.87, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 25.237, P<0.01). Before and after intervention, the influence of tissue was 4.17±0.96, 4.71±0.85, 4.96±0.99, 5.30±0.88, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 16.487, P<0.01). Before and after intervention, the patients' feelings were 4.59±0.96, 5.08±0.84, 5.70±0.83, 5.83±0.68, the difference was statistically significant ( F time value was 25.406, P<0.01). Conclusion:This article provides an effective method to help nurses' second victims out of their predicament which confirms that mindfulness meditation intervention can effectively reduce turnover tendency of nurses 'second victims and improve their professional identity.

Objective:To explore the psychological recovery pathway and support needs of second victims of nurses who have experienced medical adverse events through qualitative research.Methods:From June to December 2022, a purposive sampling method was used to select 20 nurses who had experienced level Ⅲ or above adverse events and voluntarily participated in this study from 3 grade A tertiary hospitals in Hubei Province and 1 grade A tertiary hospital in Sichuan Province. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the research subjects and the data was analyze by using thematic analysis.Results:The psychological recovery path of nurses who had experienced medical adverse events included three stages, named as the plateau period, stress response period, and coping and growth period. The second victim of nurses hoped to receive support from the department′s environmental culture, organizational atmosphere, and non punitive culture, and nurses in the platform stage had a stronger need for the first two types of support; the nurses preferred emotional support from superiors, colleagues, family/friends during the stress response period, and preferred knowledge learning and training support during the coping and growth period.Conclusions:The psychological recovery of the second victim of nurses will go through a plateau period, a stress response period, and a coping and growth period. There are differences in support needs during each period, and more targeted intervention plans should be developed.
