ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of assistive device use and unmet needs among persons with disabilities in Sichuan-Chongqing region, and to identify the key factors associated with satisfaction with these devices. MethodsFrom October, 2024 to February, 2025, quota sampling was adopted to recruit 1 040 persons with disabilities in Sichuan and 260 persons with disabilities in Chongqing. Telephone and online questionnaires were used to collect data on demographic characteristics, status of assistive device utilization and unmet assistive device needs, as well as satisfaction with assistive device use. Correlation analysis, multiple linear regression analysis and structural equation modeling were performed to identify key factors associated with satisfaction. ResultsA total of 1 186 valid responses were collected, of which 942 were from Sichuan Province and 244 from Chongqing Municipality. The utilization rate of assistive devices among persons with disabilities in Sichuan-Chongqing region was 61.9%, and the rate of unmet assistive device needs was 30.6%. The assistive device utilization rate of participants with agricultural household registration (57.98%) was lower than that of participants with non-agricultural household registration (66.86%). The utilization rate showed a J-shaped upward trend with the increase of educational attainment. Educational attainment (P = 0.002), perceived usefulness of assistive devices (P < 0.001), home living environment (P < 0.001), public environment (P < 0.001) and disability type (significant differences were found in visual and hearing disabilities compared with physical disability, P < 0.05) were key predictors of satisfaction with assistive device use. The impact of public environment on satisfaction was exerted through two indirect mediating paths: mediating effect via perceived usefulness of assistive devices (ind₁ = 0.357, 95%CI 0.279 to 0.437, P < 0.001), contributing approximately 70% of the total indirect effect; mediating effect via home living environment (ind₂ = 0.129, 95%CI 0.006 to 0.242, P = 0.038), contributing approximately 25% of the total indirect effect. ConclusionThere is a structural imbalance between assistive device use and demand in Sichuan-Chongqing region. People with psycho-intellectual disabilities are most likely to be excluded from the service chain because they neither perceive need nor access information. Education exerts a robust positive effect on both adoption and satisfaction, so training content must be tailored to different educational levels. Satisfaction is shaped by disability type, device usefulness and environmental factors. Future product development should therefore integrate functional and psychosocial dimensions. Priority should be given to micro-scale home-and-community accessibility retrofits before extending upward to public transportation and employment settings, to maximize the cost-effectiveness of limited funds.

Objective:To compile the post quality standard scale for wound, ostomy and continence nurses in China and to test the reliability and validity of the scale.Methods:The first draft of the scale was formed through literature review, semi-structured interview and Delphi expert letter consultation. Using the purposive sampling method, a total of 796 wound, ostomy and continence nurses from 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions of China were selected from April to May 2019 to test the reliability and validity of the scale. A total of 796 questionnaires were sent out and 693 were effectively received, with effective recovery of 87.1%.Results:The post quality standard scale for wound, ostomy and continence nurses included 3 first-level items and 77 second-level items. Three common factors were extracted from exploratory factor analysis and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 72.466%. The correlation coefficient between the first-level items was 0.709-0.898 and the correlation coefficient between the first-level item and the total scale was 0.859-0.937. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the total amount table was 0.992 and the half-fold reliability coefficient was 0.917 ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The post quality standard scale for wound, ostomy and continence nurses has good reliability and validity, which can be used to evaluate the post quality of wound, ostomy and continence nurses.

Objective To analyze the specimen types,ward distribution and risk factors for infections caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase(ESBLs)-producing-Escherichia coli(ECO) in recent two years,so as to provide bacteriological basis for both hospital infection control and clinical anti-infection treatment.Methods Non-repetitive 443 ECO strains isolated from the hospitalized patients in the Third People′s Hospital of Shenzhen were collcted,and the phoenix100 system was employed for bacterial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility tests.ESBLs-ECO was further confirmed by the double-disk synergy test,and the risk factors caused ESBLs-ECO were statistically analyzed.Results A total of 115 strains of ESBLs-ECO were identified among the 443 strains of ECO,which accounted for 26.0%.The ESBLs-ECO strains were mainly isolated from the sputum,urine,and blood specimens.Among the isolated ESBLs-ECO strains,20.9% were isolated from the department of Tuberculosis,13.9% from the department of pediatric,12.2% from the department of live disease,and 8.7% from the department of infection.The male sex,surgery and use of the third generation cephalosporins were independent risk factors of ESBLs-ECO infection.Conclusion The isolation rate of ESBLs-ECO in this hospital is high.It is necessary for the hospital to strengthen the control of nosocomial infections according to the risk factors.More attention should be payed on male patients,the standardization of surgical operation and disinfection,and the restriction of using the third generation cephalosporins,so as to reduce the incidene of ESBLs-ECO infections.
