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.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of edaravone dexborneol and compound porcine cerebroside ganglioside in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, and to provide decision-making reference for clinical treatment selection. METHODS The medical records of 488 patients with acute ischemic stroke hospitalized from Jan. 2021 to Dec. 2021 were collected and divided into two groups according to the treatment plan, i.e. 268 patients in edaravone dexborneol group, and 220 patients in compound porcine cerebroside ganglioside group. After baseline levels of the two groups were balanced using propensity score matching method, curative effect was evaluated according to the changes of NIHSS scores before and after treatment; the occurrence of adverse drug reactions in patients were collected from the hospital adverse reaction reporting system; from the perspective of China’s health system, the cost-effectiveness of the two options were analyzed, and one-way sensitivity analysis was conducted. RESULTS After the propensity score matching, 125 patients were included in the edaravone dexborneol group and compound porcine cerebroside ganglioside group, respectively. The response rates were 81.6% and 74.4%, respectively, with no significant difference. The average costs were 13 560.30 yuan and 14 958.68 yuan, respectively; the cost of edaravone dexborneol group was lower than that of compound porcine cerebroside ganglioside group. No adverse reaction reporting information was retrieved in both groups. Results of one-way sensitivity analysis showed that other drug costs in compound porcine cerebroside ganglioside group was relatively sensitive parameters. CONCLUSIONS Short-term efficacy and safety of edaravone dexborneol are equivalent to those of compound porcine cerebroside ganglioside in treating acute ischemic stroke. But edaravone dexborneol regimen had lower cost and is a more economical scheme.

Objective:To compare the growth speed of pulmonary artery and left ventricle after the repair of tetralogy of Fallot(TOF) with valve-sparing and transannular patch.Methods:The clinical data of children with tetralogy of Fallot admitted to our hospital from January 2015 to October 2020 were reviewed. According to the way of relieving right ventricular outflow tract stenosis, they were divided into two groups: valve-sparing and transannular patch. Independent sample t test or non- parametric test was used to compare the pulmonary artery and left ventricular growth indexes before operation and at the last follow-up between the two groups. The paired t test was used to compare preoperative and postoperative indexes. Results:A total of 104 children with tetralogy of Fallot, including 58 males and 46 females, had surgery at a median age and weight of 6.7(4.1, 10.3) months and 7.0(5.8, 8.4) kg, respectively. The preoperative Nakata index, McGoon ratio, pulmonary artery Z-score, left ventricular end diastolic volume(LVEDV) index and Z-score in valve-sparing were higher than those in transannular patch( P=0.001, 0.000, 0.003, 0.000, 0.000). At the last follow-up, the Z-scores of pulmonary arteries in both groups were greater than those before operation( P=0.016, 0.000), the LVEDV Z-score in transannular patch was greater than that before surgery( P=0.000), while the LVEDV Z-score of valve-sparing was not significantly different from that before operation( P=0.581), there was no significant difference in pulmonary artery Z-score and LVEDV Z-score between two groups( P=0.468, 0.884). The difference between the last follow-up and preoperative of pulmonary artery Z-score and LVEDV Z-score in valve-sparing was smaller than that in transannular patch( P=0.000, 0.000). Conclusion:Compared with valve-sparing, the pulmonary artery and left ventricle grow faster in transannular patch during the early stage after TOF repair.
