Objective To find out the effects of modularized medical database in hanging rescue care training. Methods A total of 281 nurses in 2012 and 312 nurses in 2013 who joined in the hanging rescue care training were enrolled in this study. Nurses in 2013 were trained by using modularized medical database, while nurses in 2012 were trained by using regular medical database. The examination score and related survey findings in the two groups were compared. Results The examination scores was (91. 22 ± 3. 30) in 2013, which was significantly higher than that (90.65 ±2.16) in 2012 (t=2.442,P<0.05). 93.7% interviewees agreed that the modularized medical database was better mapping in the clinical practice. 89. 9% participants thought the modularized medical database was more helpful. 82. 3% nurses were more satisfied with the new training method and 77. 2% of them regarded that it was a higher request in teaching staffs and schedule arrangement than the regular training method. Conclusions The use of modularized medical database in the hanging rescue care training has a better improvement of the effect on gaining the nurses′acknowledgment, but it is also a higher demanding for the teachers compared with the regular database.

Objective To explore the methods and effectiveness of using nurses as standardized patient ( NSP) in junior nurses′hanging and choking rescue care training. Methods This study selected four nurses as NSPs, based on Huaxi Hospital′s NSP screening criteria. A total of 60 nurses whose psychiatric nursing age were beyond three years were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 30 members each. The nurses in the experimental group were treated with NSP method, while the control group was trained in the regular way. After that, the effects of training were evaluated by Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure ( DREEM ) . The theory and clinical skills examination and training satisfaction were surveyed. Results The theory test scores of the two groups after training were significantly higher than those before training (P<0. 05), and the scores of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group, but there was no significant difference (P>0. 05). The total score of DREEM, and the perception of learning, course organizers and academic self-perception score of DREEM of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (t=7. 086, 9. 443, 10. 462, 8. 620, respectively;P<0. 05). The score of choking rescue skills of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( t=2. 759,P<0. 05). But the score of hanging rescue skills of the experimental group was not significantly higher than that of the control group (P>0. 05). There was no significant difference in the satisfaction between the two groups (P>0. 05). Conclusions The application of NSP in hanging and choking rescue care training can improve the teaching environment, increase nurses′choking rescue care skills, but no difference is found in the theory examination and hanging rescue care skills between the two groups.

BackgroundThe existing tools in China for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint do not sufficiently consider the specialty in psychiatric practice, and the scale items are somewhat cumbersome to use, which together restrict their further promotion and application. Accordingly, there is an urgent need for developing a more scientific assessment tool. ObjectiveTo construct a scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint and to verify its reliability and validity, so as to provide a generic tool for the assessment. MethodsBased on the theoretical framework of the knowledge-attitude-practice model, the preliminary scale was formed through systematic literature review, qualitative interview and Delphi method. From July to December 2021, a stratified sampling was utilized to select 729 psychiatric nurses from tertiary, secondary and primary (including unclassified medical institutions and grassroots hospitals) psychiatric hospitals in Guangdong Province. The formal scale was developed through item analysis, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The validity of the scale was evaluated by content validity and structure validity, and the reliability was verified by procedures including Cronbach's α coefficient, test-retest reliability, and split-half reliability. ResultsA total of 12 items of three dimensions (knowledge, attitude, practice) were included in the scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint. The scale-level content validity index (S-CVI) was 0.941, and the item-level content validity index (I-CVI) ranged from 0.812 to 1.000. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three common factors, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 62.948%. The confirmatory factor yielded adequate fit. Cronbach's α coefficient was found to be 0.887 for the scale, 0.819 for knowledge dimension, 0.842 for attitude dimension, and 0.831 for practice dimension. The split-half reliability and test-retest reliability for the scale were 0.712 and 0.922, respectively. ConclusionThe scale shows satisfactory reliability and validity, which can be used to assess psychiatric nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint.
