Methods Guided by the principles of PDCA, evidence-based nursing and work process, a framework of evidence-based quality continuous improvement was established through a citation analysis of evidence implementation related projects and literatures. Results The framework of evidence-based continuous quality improvement consisted of four stages and twelve steps, including evidence searching, practice audit, evidence implementation and outcome evaluation, and then it would turn to next cycle. Conclusion The framework of evidence-based continuous quality improvement provides nursing professionals a concept and method of promoting evidence into practice and promoting clinical nursing quality improvement.
Objective To define the attributes and priorities of evidence-based nursing curriculum needs of nursing students, so as to provide operational reference for the design and development of evidence-based nursing course in the future. Methods Questionnaire was designed based on Kano model, and convenient sampling method was adopted to investigate the nursing students who had received training or had experience in evidence-based nursing from September to November 2020. According to the Kano model attribute classification method, the need attribute of evidence-based nursing curriculum was defined. Results A total of 303 nursing students were investigated. Kano model analysis showed that 11 of the needs for evidence-based nursing courses were one-dimensional quality, which belonged to the dimension of teaching resources and teaching content, and 5 were indifference quality, which belonged to the course assessment dimension. The importance-satisfaction matrix showed that the need of evidence-based nursing curriculum was concentrated in the advantage area and minor excepting improvement area. Conclusions In the future curriculum design, evidence-based nursing teachers need to continue to maintain the demand items in the advantage area and constantly improve and perfect them. They also need to pay more attention to the demand items in the minor excepting improvement area. Combined with the current problems in evidence-based nursing practice and the evidence-based needs of students, teachers need to further put forward suggestions on evidence-based nursing curriculum.
Objective To formulate an evidence-based adjuvant therapeutic plan for a patient with large area pressure ulcers. Methods Based on an adequate assessment of the patient’s condition and using the principle of PICO, we searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 1, 2008), DARE (Issue 3, 2008), CCRT (Issue 1, 2008), MEDLINE (1980~ March 2008) and Chinese Journal Full-text Database CNKI (1979~2008) for the best available clinical evidence on adjuvant therapy of large area pressure ulcers with infrared rays, nutrition support and some special overlays. Results Two systematic reviews and three randomized controlled trials were included. According to the current evidence, as well as the patient’s clinical condition and preference, a comprehensive therapeutic plan was given to the patient. And in the next three months with the therapeutic plan, the patient’s large area pressure ulcers had already recovered. Conclusion Evidence based approaches can help us develop the best comprehensive therapeutic plan for the patient and will help improve the therapeutic results for patients with large area pressure ulcers.
Objective To provide evidence-based therapeutic schedule for an adult patient with Lumber Isthmic Spondylolisthesis grading II. Methods Based on fully assessing the patient’s conditions, the clinical problems were put forward according to PICO principles. Such database as The Cochrane Library (2005 to April 2011), DARE (April 2011), CENTRAL (April 2011), MEDLINE (April 2011), EMbase and CBM were searched to collect high quality clinical evidence, and then we told a patient information about treatment plans. The plan was chosen by the patient for she knew her conditions and the plans. Results We included 1 meta-analysis, 3 randomized controlled trials, 5 systematic reviews and 1 prospective study on the natural course of isthmic spondylolisthesis were included. Literature evidence indicated that the prognosis of isthmic spondylolisthesis was good. Surgery should be selected when there was neither no remission of symptom, nor progression of lumber olisthy with conservative treatment. The long-term effect of surgery may be good, but it cannot change the natural course of the disease. Based on literature evidence, the patient chose the conservative treatment. After one year’s treatment the patient recovered, her sciatica relieved, and CT showed no progression of lumber olisthy. Conclusion Patient with low grand isthmic spondylolisthesis chose conservative treatment may achieves good effects, whereas on the process of the treatment, regular follow-up to monitor the progression of lumber olisthy should be conducted.

ObjectiveTo systematically review the predictors of enteral nutrition feeding intolerance in critically ill patients. MethodsThe PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM databases were searched to collect relevant observational studies from the inception to 6 August, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.4 software. ResultsA total of 18 studies were included, including 28 847 patients. The results of the meta-analysis showed that gender, age, severity of illness, hypo-albuminemia, length of stay, postpyloric feeding, mechanical ventilation and mechanical ventilation time, use of prokinetics, use of sedation drugs, use of vasoactive drugs and use of antibiotics were predictors of enteral nutrition feeding intolerance in critically ill patients, among which postpyloric feeding (OR=0.46, 95%CI 0.29 to 0.71, P<0.01) was a protective factor. ConclusionAccording to the influencing factors, the medical staff can formulate a targeted enteral nutrition program at the time of admission to the ICU to reduce the occurrence of feeding intolerance. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
