Objective To explore the effect of social support and coping style on posttraumatic growth of ostomy patients. Methods A total of 237 patients with ostomy from Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were investigated using General questionnaire, Perceived Social Support Scale, Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire and Posttraumatic Growth Inventory by cross-sectional survey method from September 2017 to March 2018. The path of social support and coping style on post-traumatic growth was established by correlation analysis and structural equation model. Results The total score of posttraumatic growth in patients with ostomy was (66.76±12.20) points, which was at the upper-middle level. Correlation analysis showed that posttraumatic growth was positively correlated with comprehension of social support (r=0.551, P<0.01), positively correlated with face style (r=0.580, P<0.01), negatively correlated with avoidance style and resignation style (r=-0.334, P<0.01;r=-0.449, P<0.01). Structural equation model showed social support had directly positive effect on posttraumatic growth, path coefficient were 0.44. Face style, avoidance style, and resignation style had a partial mediating effect between social support and posttraumatic growth, and mediation effects account for 20.01％, 5.21％, 9.25％of the total effect, respectively. Conclusions The posttraumatic growth level of patients with ostomy needs to be improved. Medical staff should strengthen social support for patients and guide patients to adopt the positive coping styles, reduce the avoidance and resignation coping styles, and promote patients to get more posttraumatic growth, furthermore, improve their social adaptability and quality of life.

Objective:To prepare a discharge readiness scale suitable for patients with enterostomy and to test the reliability and validity, so as to provide an effective measurement tool for the assessment of discharge readiness of patients.Methods:On the basis of the existing Chinese version of the discharge readiness scale, items related to enterostomy nursing problems were added to form the scale entry pool, and a draft of the scale was formed by expert consultation. 132 patients with preventive enterostomy admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were pre-investigated with the original scale to test the reliability and validity.Results:The discharge readiness scale of enterostomy patients contained 18 items. The content validity of the scale was 0.969, and the content validity of each item was 0.824 - 1.000. Four common factors were extracted from the scale, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 79.503%. Cronbach alpha coefficient of the total scale was 0.923, and each dimension was 0.806 - 0.947.Conclusions:The discharge readiness scale of patients with enterostomy has good reliability and validity, which can be used as an evaluation tool for patients at discharge.

INTRODUCTION: Evidence regarding the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygenation for preoxygenation and apnoeic oxygenation is conflicting. Our objective is to evaluate whether HFNC oxygenation for preoxygenation and apnoeic oxygenation maintains higher oxygen saturation (SpO₂) during rapid sequence intubation (RSI) in ED patients compared to usual care. METHODS: This was a multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled trial in adult ED patients requiring RSI. Patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to either intervention (HFNC oxygenation at 60L/min) group or control (non-rebreather mask for preoxygenation and nasal prongs of at least 15L/min oxygen flow for apnoeic oxygenation) group. Primary outcome was lowest SpO₂ during the first intubation attempt. Secondary outcomes included incidence of SpO₂ falling below 90% and safe apnoea time. RESULTS: One hundred and ninety patients were included, with 97 in the intervention and 93 in the control group. Median lowest SpO₂ during the first intubation attempt was 100% in both groups. Incidence of SpO₂ falling below 90% was lower in the intervention group (15.5%) compared to the control group (22.6%) (adjusted relative risk=0.68, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.37-1.25). Post hoc quantile regression analysis showed that the first quartile of lowest SpO₂ during the first intubation attempt was greater by 5.46% (95% CI 1.48-9.45%, P=0.007) in the intervention group. CONCLUSION Use of HFNC for preoxygenation and apnoeic oxygenation, when compared to usual care, did not improve lowest SpO₂ during the first intubation attempt but may prolong safe apnoea time.
