Objective To investigate the level of uncertainty in illness, anxiety and depression for mothers with premature infants in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU), and to analyze the correlation between them. Methods Totally 100 mothers with premature infants hospitalized in NICU were into the experiment group. They were investigated with the General Information Questionnaire, the Parent,s Perception Uncertainty Scale-Family (PPUS-FM), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS), and Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS). Results The total score of uncertainty in illness was (82.840±29.132) points;the total score of anxiety was (43.360±13.033) points;the total score of depression was (60.740±16.847) points. The total score of uncertainty in illness, unclear, complexity, lack of information and unpredictability were positively correlated with the total score of anxiety and depression (r=0.186-0.399, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions Mothers with premature infants hospitalized in NICU show a high level of uncertainty in illness, anxiety and depression, and they are interacted with each other. Therefore, in addition to nursing preterm infants, nursing staff should attach importance to their mothers′ psychological needs, help them reduce the uncertainty in illness so as to relieve the anxiety, depression and promote their health in body and mind.

Objective To investigate the use of feeding support and influencing factors of oral feeding among premature infants. Methods Totally 103 premature infants with oral feeding problems hospitalized during June to December 2014 were enrolled. The postmenstrual age and feeding support were observed at the time of initiation oral feeding and full oral feeding. Moreover, the progress and performance of oral feeding, the daily increase in weight, the time of body weight regain, the time of assisted ventilation and length of hospital stay and so on were calculated. Results There were 96 premature infants using feeding support at the time of initiation oral feeding and 58 premature infants at the time of full oral feeding. Logistic regression analysis showed that birth gestational age(OR=2.195, P<0.01), birth weight(OR=1.003, P<0.01), severity of illness(OR=0.121, P<0.01) and feeding tolerance(OR=0.007, P<0.01)were important factors of oral feeding among premature infants. Conclusions The premature infants with small gestational age at birth, low birth weight, severity of illness, and feeding intolerance are high risk populations of oral feeding. Nurses should take timely risk assessment and interventions to reduce the occurrence of stopping oral feeding.

Objective:To study the status and relationship of mental health,internet addiction disorder,nociceptive behavior and sleep quality among college students,and to provide evidence for healthcare. Methods:A total of 2 868 college students were chosen from Lanzhou University and surveyed with questionnaires on the status of mental health, internet addiction disorder, nociceptive behavior and sleep quality. Results:Sleep quality and health risk behaviors in girls were better than boys (P<0.05) . Psychological state in medical students was best. Sleep quality score in engineering students was the highest. Health risk behaviors in science students had highest score. Internet addiction behavior in engineering students had the highest score. Mental health score in three or more students was less than that in junior students,while sleep quality and internet addiction behavior score was higher (P<0.01) . Conclusion:Mental health has a negative influence on nociceptive behavior and internet addiction disorder,while it has a positive effect on sleeping quality. A negtive correlation lies between sleeping quality and nociceptive behavior or internet addiction disorder. The departments should pay attention to the status of mental health,internet addiction disorder,nociceptive behavior and sleep quality among college students,and the appropriate prevention is necessary.

Objective To evaluate the effect of oral stimulation and abdominal massage on the progress and performance of oral feeding and length of hospital stay in premature infants. Methods A total of 80 premature infants were randomly assigned into experimental group, and control group. The infants in the experimental group ( n=40) received oral stimulation and abdominal massage in addition to the routine care. The infants of control group ( n=40) received routine care of NICU including intermittent feeding, oral support, and postural support, etc.. The corrected gestational ages were compared between two groups when infants of two groups achieved starting oral feeding and full oral feeding. The progress of oral feeding, performance of oral feeding and length of hospitalization were calculated. Results The progress of oral feeding and length of hospitalization were (3.38±1.84)d and (30.25±17.32)d that all were lower than those of control group; the efficacy of feeding, feeding effects and milk volume intake were (6.30±0.94)ml/min, (81.45±21.61)%, (78. 97±18.99)%, which were higher than those of control group (t=-6.317,-2.862,8.543,2.698,2.641;P<0.05) . Conclusions The oral stimulation combined with abdominal massage is beneficial for the difficulty of oral feeding in premature infants.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of breastfeeding for premature infants in neonatal intensive care unit ( NICU ) . Methods Totally 100 premature infants hospitalized in NICU were evaluated by the general information questionnaire, parents′ perception uncertainty scale-family (PPUS-FM), self-rating anxiety scale ( SAS ) and self-rating depression scale ( SDS ) . The variables may influence breastfeeding were collected.Results Premature infants in NICU were divided into the pure breastfeeding group ( 49 cases) and the non-breastfeeding group ( 51 cases) . Through the comparison, we found that the differences in gestational age, birth weight, mother′s maternity leave time, whether mothers have the breastfeeding plan, whether they know the importance of breastfeeding for premature infants, whether they accept the guidance and help of breastfeeding, whether they have confidence in breastfeeding, lover′s attitude to breastfeeding, nipple condition, the time of milking in 30 minutes after child birth and milking time within 24 h, anxiety score, depression score and uncertainty in illness (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that: uncertainty in illness (OR=1.083,P=0.044), depression (OR=1.059,P=0.023), lover′s attitude to breastfeeding (OR=0. 099,P=0.022), accept assistance and guidance of breastfeeding (OR=0.055,P=0.038) and milking in 30 minutes after child birth ( OR=0. 020, P=0. 007 ) were important influencing factors of breastfeeding for premature infants in NICU. Conclusions The uncertainty in illness, depression, lover′s attitude to breastfeeding, accept assistance and guidance of breastfeeding, and began milking in 30 minutes may affect the breastfeeding in premature infants. Nurses should take timely risk assessment and interventions to effectively improve infant′s breastfeeding measures, and promote the health of maternals and children.
