Objective:To explore the experience and feelings of undergraduate nurses in low-value care de-implementation, so as to provide reference for formulating specific strategies for low-value care de-implementation.Methods:From July to October 2023, purposive sampling was used to select 14 full-time undergraduate nurses from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University as research subjects. The phenomenological research method was used to conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews, and Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to analyze the data.Results:Three themes were extracted in total. Highly recognizing the low-value care de-implementation included reducing nurses' workload, improving patients' medical experience, and promoting harmonious nurse-patient relationships. Cognitive dissonance for low-value care de-implementation involved low efficiency cognition and maintaining a wait-and-see attitude. Low-value care de-implementation was hindered by multiple factors, including a lack of critical thinking, concerns about medical nursing risks, a lack of evidence-based nursing skills, a lack of organizational support, and a lack of medical knowledge among patients.Conclusions:Undergraduate nurses highly recognize the significance of low-value care de-implementation, but still face many challenges in their clinical practice. Multiple measures should be taken to promote the low-value care de-implementation in clinical practice.

Objective:To construct a risk prediction model for unplanned readmission of patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and verify the performance of the model.Methods:Using convenience sampling, patients who underwent CRT at the Department of Cardiovascular of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2017 to July 2020 were selected as the modeling group ( n=279) and the internal validation group ( n=120). CRT patients admitted to the Department of Cardiovascular of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from August 2021 to August 2022 due to the same or related diseases were selected as the external validation group ( n=86). Multivariate Logistic regression was used to explore the influencing factors of unplanned readmission of CRT patients and establish the prediction model. The fitting effect and discrimination of the model were evaluated through the Hosmer-Lemeshow test and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The nomogram was established based on R-4.1.2 and Rstudio software. Results:The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that creatinine, left atrial diameter, pulmonary artery systolic pressure, New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification, and body mass index (BMI) were risk factors for unplanned readmission in CRT patients, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). The prediction model formula was: P=1/{1+exp[- (0.792×creatinine+1.408×left atrial inner diameter+0.887×pulmonary artery systolic pressure+0.769×NYHA classification-0.970×BMI-2.266) ]}. The area under the ROC curve was 0.874, the maximum value of the Jordan index was 0.636, the optimal threshold was 0.256, the sensitivity was 0.826, and the specificity was 0.810. The accuracy of internal validation and external validation was 90.00% and 90.70%, respectively. Conclusions:The constructed prediction model for unplanned readmission of CRT patients has good predictive performance, and the visualized nomogram improves the practical performance of the model. It helps medical and nursing staff identify high-risk groups of unplanned readmission of CRT patients in the early stage and provides a basis for formulating nursing strategies for different risk groups.
