Prevention of central venous catheter-related infection in ICU with cluster nursing intervention: a meta-analysis

Objective:To systematically evaluate the clinical effects of cluster nursing intervention in preventing central venous catheter-related infection in intensive care unit.Methods:A randomized controlled study was searched from China National Knowledge Internet(CNKI),Wanfang,Chinese Scientific Journals Database(VIP),Chinese Biomedical Literature Service System(SinoMed),PubMed,Embase and Cochrane library databases from the establishment to May 1,2020.Two reviewers independently evaluated and cross checked the quality of the study.Revman 5.3 was used to conduct the meta-analysis.Results:A total of 21 randomized controlled trials with 6,030 patients were included.Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of central venous catheter-related infection(relative risk(RR)=0.29,95%confidence interval(CI)[0.23,0.37]),the incidence of catheter plugging(RR=0.25,95%CI[0.16,0.39])and catheter prolapse(RR=0.18,95%CI[0.11,0.29])were significantly different between the two groups.Conclusion:Cluster nursing intervention could prevent central venous catheter-related infection in intensive care unit.

Application of Clinical Nursing Pathway Combined with Cluster Nursing Mode in Biologic Treatment of Rheumatoid Immune Disease Patients

Objective: To investigate the effect of clinical nursing pathway (CNP) combined with cluster nursing mode in intravenous biologic treatment of rheumatoid immune disease patients. Methods: Convenience sampling method was used to select inpatients receiving biologics treatment in Rheumatology and Immunology Department of a grade A hospital in Jingzhou city from May 2020 to April 2022. 75 patients from May 2020 to April 2021 were selected as the control group, and 75 patients from May 2021 to April 2022 were selected as the observation group. The control group was given routine care. The observation group was treated with CNP combined with cluster nursing mode on the basis of the control group, and the incidences of adverse infusion reactions, total treatment time, patient satisfaction and nurse satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results: There were statistically significant differences between the two groups after intervention (P Conclusion: Using CNP combined with cluster nursing mode is beneficial to reduce the incidence of adverse infusion reactions in patients, shorten the total treatment time, and improve the satisfaction of patients and nurses.

Effect of Cluster Nursing in Preventing Urinary Tract Infection in Postoperative Patients with Indwelling Urinary Catheter

Objective:This paper expounds and analyzes the effect of cluster nursing in preventing urinary tract infection in postoperative patients with indwelling urinary catheter.Methods:A total of 400 postoperative patients with indwelling urinary catheter,treated in Yancheng No.1 People’s Hospital in recent two years,were recruited as research subjects.The patients were equally divided into group A and group B,with 200 patients in each group,and all received routine anti-infectives.The patients in group A(200 cases)received routine nursing.On the basis of group A,cluster nursing was implemented for patients in group B(200 cases).Results:The indwelling time of urinary catheter,the disappearance time of bladder irritation symptoms,and the probability of urinary tract infection were compared between both groups,which showed that the nursing effect of group B was better than that of group A(P<0.05).Conclusion:The implementation of cluster nursing in postoperative patients with indwelling urinary catheter can improve the deficiency of routine nursing,consolidate the treatment effect,and reduce the complication rate of urinary tract infection.

A bibliometric analysis of research on nursing models in countries other than China

Objectives＂ To deepen our understanding of the status quo and to identify the hot topics and develop- mental trends of research on nursing models in countries other than China in the most recent decade. Methods： The study subjects were the publications retrieved from the PubMed database using the MeSH terms of ＂Models, Nursing＂. Bibliographic item co-occurrence mining system （BICOMS） software was used for conventional bibliometric analysis of publications during two time periods, 2005-2009 and 2010-2014. The number of published journal articles, journal distribution, authors of publications, country of origin of journals, and language of publications were analyzed to establish a high-frequency keyword profile and co-occurrence matrix. Graphical clustering toolkit （gCLUTO） software was applied for two-way clustering analysis and visualized analysis. Results： A total of 1472 journal articles with a key theme of nursing models were retrieved for final analysis, including 771 published during 2005-2009 and 701 during 2010-2014. The bibliometric analysis revealed that publications other than China concerning nursing models were mostly concentrated in the United States and the United Kingdom and that the number of relevant publications has been continuously decreasing. The two-way clustering analysis showed that there were mainly four types of research themes in the relevant publications in countries other than China during 2005-2009, i.e., nursing education and theoretical research, clinical nursing and psychological care, nursing administration, and models of nursing education, whereas there were five types during 2010-2014, i.e., nursing theories and clinical nursing practice, nursing administration models and assessments of nurses＇ knowledge and skills, community nursing administration models, nursing human resource management, and nursing education models and approaches. Conclusions： Research on nursing models in countries other than China is relatively mature and stable with a broader view, but it has shown a declining trend in recent years. It emphasizes both theory and practice, with research content tending to be structured into four modules, i.e., nursing education, administration, clinical practice, and theoretical research. Community nursing models may become a key research direction in the international research on nursing models in the future.
