Purpose: To enhance patient safety and improve communication and response times during the perioperative management of patients with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding, a checklist was developed, tested for psychometric properties, and implemented in clinical practice.
Design: This is a methodological study.
Methods: A perioperative checklist for acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding was developed using a literature review and the Delphi method.
Aims: To explore the potential risk factors contributing to inadequate bowel preparation in middle-aged and elderly patients (aged 40 and above) undergoing colonoscopy, and to subsequently devise and validate a comprehensive risk assessment tool and nomogram model for accurately predicting such preparation.
Design: A retrospective observational study was conducted at three campuses from January 2023 to December 2023.
Methods: Twenty-three clinical indicators derived from colonoscopy records were leveraged to inform the predictive models.
Background: The efficacy of establishing an intensification outpatient center for diagnostic and treatment endoscope services has been documented, but its practical implementation remains limited. Presently, there are two models for outpatient endoscope care services: the clinical specialty-based model and the solitary outpatient model. However, each model has its limitations.

Aims: To develop and validate of a competency evaluation index system for nurse endoscopists with different stages performing endoscopy nursing in China.
Purpose: To verify the feasibility of clinical-based discharge (CBD) criteria and to find out the reasons for the delayed discharge of outpatients after endoscopy procedures under drug-induced intravenous sedation.
Design: A prospectively observational study conducted at a tertiary endoscopy center.
Methods: Medical records were collected from outpatients admitted for endoscopy procedures under drug-induced intravenous sedation from June 1, 2021 to December 30, 2021.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a discharge assessment scale tailored for outpatients undergoing sedative anesthesia treatment in the ambulatory postanesthesia care unit and validate its agreement with the Post-Anesthetic Discharge Scoring System.
Design: The Delphi method.
Methods: A Delphi survey was conducted with 30 experts focusing on the evaluation of outpatient discharges following treatment under ambulatory anesthesia.
Introduction: Aging brings with an increased risk of chronic diseases among older adults, which could affect health outcomes. Evidence has showed that health literacy is associated with health outcomes. However, limited studies explore the underlying mechanism between health literacy and health outcomes.

Design: A review of the literature.
Methods: In this study, a review of sixteen articles was conducted to analyze the affecting factors, evaluation tools, and the current research status of patients discharge after outpatient anesthesia.
Introduction: Desmoid-type fibromatosis (DF) is a fibrous tumor characterized by low-grade malignant and easy invasive growth and high recurrence. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy has been identified as a novel non-invasive approach for DF treatment; however, the ultrasonic energy generated by HIFU can cause skin heat injury.
Case: A 31-year-old female patient with signs and symptoms of DF received treatment in our institution.
Background: Effective pain management is closely related to the prognosis of patients after surgery. Setting up acute pain service is among the effective strategies to control pain. The operation of acute pain service is mostly dominated by anesthesiologists; however, control of postsurgical pain is still unsatisfactory.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOptimal pain management is a priority in effective nursing care. Lack of sufficient pain knowledge associated with inadequate pain management has been proved. However, the intention, defined as the predictor of behavior, regarding pain management remains unknown.

Methods: From July 2012 to October 2013, 380 patients scheduled for laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia were randomly assigned to receive sham TEAS (group SSS), preoperative TEAS (group TSS), preoperative TEAS combined with intraoperative TEAS (group TTS) or preoperative TEAS combined with postoperative TEAS (group TST) (n=95 each group). Primary outcomes included resting and activity pain intensity evaluated by visual analog scale at 1, 6, 24, and 48 hours after surgery.
