Objective:To explore the influencing factors of the poor sustainability of the evidence-based practice project for irritant dermatitis around urostomy.Methods:This is a qualitative study. From April to May 2020, 12 nurses working in the Urology Surgery of Peking University First Hospital were selected by purposive sampling for the semi-structured interview. The integrated-Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services framework (i-PARIHS framework) was applied to analyze and extract the obtained data.Results:The interview results found that, in terms of transform (evidence) , the localization and continuity of evidence for the evidence-based practice project of irritant dermatitis around urostomy needed to be improved, including the high matching between evidence and practice environment, and the insufficient continuity of evidence application. In terms of transform recipients, the leadership of project practitioner needed to be improved, including the conflict between the roles of practitioners and researchers, the lack of knowledge reserves of practitioners, and the conflict among the values of practitioners. In terms of organizational environment, the leadership of managers and the imformatization degree of project needed to be improved, including insufficient support from leaders and insufficient facilities.Conclusions:At the initial stage of formulating the nursing evidence-based practice project, the project implementer should fully incorporate the opinions of stakeholders for localization debugging, and consider the sustainability of the project. In addition, the leadership of managers, nurses and interns should be increased, the use and training of urostomy talents should be strengthened, the training of urostomy knowledge should be continued, the information-based follow-up system should be improved, and the intervention strategy should be continuously adjusted to ensure the project is carried out.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to enhance curing light penetration through resin inlays by modifying the thicknesses of the dentin, enamel, and translucent layers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: To investigate the layer dominantly affecting the power density of light curing units, resin wafers of each layer with 0.5 mm thickness were prepared and power density through resin wafers was measured with a dental radiometer (Cure Rite, Kerr). The dentin layer, which had the dominant effect on power density reduction, was decreased in thickness from 0.5 to 0.1 mm while thickness of the enamel layer was kept unchanged at 0.5 mm and thickness of the translucent layer was increased from 0.5 to 0.9 mm and vice versa, in order to maintain the total thickness of 1.5 mm of the resin inlay. Power density of various light curing units through resin inlays was measured. RESULTS: Power density measured through 0.5 mm resin wafers decreased more significantly with the dentin layer than with the enamel and translucent layers (p < 0.05). Power density through 1.5 mm resin inlays increased when the dentin layer thickness was reduced and the enamel or translucent layer thickness was increased. The highest power density was recorded with dentin layer thickness of 0.1 mm and increased translucent layer thickness in all light curing units. CONCLUSIONS: To enhance the power density through resin inlays, reducing the dentin layer thickness and increasing the translucent layer thickness would be recommendable when fabricating resin inlays.
