Objective:To describe the status and influencing factors of the empowerment of caregivers after gastrointestinal tumor.Methods:From March 2019 to October 2019, using convenience sampling method, 124 pairs of gastrointestinal tumor patients and caregivers who were hospitalized in the general surgery and anorectal surgery of the department of Shandong Tai′an City Central Hospital and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University were selected as the subjects. A general information questionnaire, Main Caregivers′Empowerment Measurement were used as research tools. To investigate the empowerment ability of caregivers of patients with gastrointestinal tumors after operation.Results:The total caregiver′s empowerment score was 168.81 ± 19.49. The scores of each dimension ranged from high to low: relationship with caregivers (3.83 ± 0.43), expectation of care outcomes (3.80 ± 0.43), awareness of caregiving roles (3.70 ± 0.51), caregivers′ subjectivity (3.37 ± 0.60), caregiving beliefs (3.34 ± 0.67), caregiving knowledge and skills (3.27 ± 0.73), personal resources (2.94 ± 0.65), goodwill caregiving (2.85 ± 0.65) , the scruples around (2.75 ± 0.88). Multiple linear regression results showed that, patient gender, whether the disease is first attack, whether the patient is aware of the disease, the caregiver marriage, and the caregiver working status were the influencing factors of the caregiver′s empowerment ability after gastrointestinal tumor operation ( t values were -8.15-8.72, R2=0.62, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is room for further improvement in the empowerment of caregivers after gastrointestinal tumor surgery, especially in personal resources, goodwill care and scruples around. The results suggest that medical staff should guide caregivers to emancipate their minds, enhance the breadth of empowerment, and promote self care and fast rehabilitation of patients.

This is a study based on hospital intensive monitoring to explore medication use of Diemailing Kudiezi injection(one Chinese herbal medicine injection) in real word in the patients with cerebral infarction. The active monitoring model was adopted and hospital intensive monitoring on safety of 7 189 cases of patients with cerebral infarction was conducted to obtain the drug use information of Diemailing injection. The results were analyzed by using statistical description and association rule method. The statistical description and association rule analysis were conducted based on patients' basic demographic characteristics, use of Diemailing injection and combined use of drugs. Sixty-two percent(4 437/7 189) of the patients were from traditional Chinese medicine hospitals as compared with 39%(2 752/7 189) from western medicine hospitals; 84%(6 003/7 189) of the patients were from tertiary hospitals as compared with 16%(1 186/7 189) from second-class hospitals. The hospitals were mostly located in north China. Drug related indicators such as a single dripping speed, stash time after allocating transfusion, duration of injection, and injecting room temperature were not noted in instruction manual. It was also found that there were off label use in the practice, for instance, non-intravenous infusion, >14 d treatment course, use of non-designated solvent, and a single dose>40 mL or<10 mL. Analysis of association rules showed that only Edaravone among the most frequent combined drugs was listed in the current guideline in China, and the other three most frequent combined drugs deproteinized calf blood extractive injection, Cinepazide Maleate injection and Alprostadil injection were used with little evidence. Diemailing＋Aspirin＋Alprostadil was the most common combined use in our study, but the recommended clopidogrel＋Aspirin was not found in this study. The drug use situation of Diemailing injection in the real world was obtained by data analysis on large size samples, providing basic reference information for clinicians and researchers. However, efficacy was not concerned in this study, so efficacy-related information could not be explained.
