Aim: This study aims to design a 100-h training programme for nursing innovation teams and to evaluate the effect of this training programme using Kirkpatrick's model.

Background: The innovative capability of nurses is a powerful driver for the development of the nursing discipline, and it is currently at a low to medium level in China. Innovation competency development has become a research trend in nurses' in-service education, but only changes in nursing innovation behaviours before and after training have been evaluated. The cascading, continuous assessment tools are rarely used.

Methods: This is a quasi-experimental research design: pretest and posttest design. Totally, 61 clinical nurses from Hangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled for innovation training. This innovation team training programme consisted of a 36-h theoretical training phase and a 64-h collaborative training phase. The four levels of Kirkpatrick's model, that is, reaction, learning, behaviour, and result, were applied for the evaluation together with questionnaires.

Results: At reaction level, the nurses' attendance was over 85% in two phases. The differences between nurse organizational innovation climate scores of tested nurses before and after training were statistically significant (t = -22.559, P < .001). At learning level, there were statistically significant differences between nurses' innovation self-efficacy scale scores of tested nurses before and after training (t = -16.832, P < .001). At behaviour level, the nursing innovation behaviour scale scores of tested nurses were significantly higher after training (t = -18.950, P < .001) than before the training. At result level, the clinical nurse innovation ability of tested nurses after the training were higher than before the training (t = -26.275, P < .001). The numbers of patent applications, granted patents, application for scientific research projects, sponsored scientific research projects, and papers published by team members after the training were larger than those before training (Z = -2.032, P = .042).

Conclusion: Kirkpatrick's model can evaluate the effectiveness of nursing innovation training for clinical nurses. The nursing innovation training is beneficial to improve nurses' innovation capacity, organizational innovation climate and innovation self-efficacy, and nursing innovation behaviour and promote the output of research and innovation projects.

Implications For Nursing Management: Managers can flexibly develop training modules with regional characteristics based on this programme to effectively improve the innovation ability of clinical nurses, thus meeting the urgent demand for innovative nursing talents and the rapid development of nursing disciplines.

Aim(s): To investigate the impact of the absence of specific advice for oral fluid intake, compared to supplementation water intake on the occurrence of post-dural puncture headache.

Design: A prospective, open-label, non-inferiority, multicenter trial including hospitalized patients requiring a diagnostic lumbar puncture in seven hospitals in France.

Methods: Patients were randomly allocated (1:1) either to receive no specific advice on oral fluid intake (FREE-FLUID), or to be encouraged to drink 2 liters of water (CONTROL) within the 2 hours after lumbar puncture.

Immune memory in hepatitis E virus: a comparative study of natural infection and vaccination in a nursing home population.

J Immunol

February 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine, Second Affiliated Hospital, Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Public Health, The Key Laboratory of Intelligent Preventive Medicine of Zhejiang Province, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, 310058, China.

Immune memory is crucial for preventing hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection. Our study aims to investigate immunological memory characteristics and differences between vaccination and natural HEV infection, taking into account that both can induce immune memory. We recruited 60 HEV-infected patients, 58 contingency HEV-vaccinated individuals and 4 controls from an outbreak of hepatitis E in a nursing home between June and August 2023.

Hyaluronidase-facilitated subcutaneous immunoglobulin (fSCIG) 10% offers potential improvements in patient independence and tolerability versus intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) when used for the treatment of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). fSCIG 10% also requires less frequent infusions and fewer infusion sites than conventional subcutaneous immunoglobulin (subcutaneous immunoglobulin without hyaluronidase). The ADVANCE-CIDP 1 study demonstrated fSCIG 10% efficacy and safety in preventing CIDP relapse and positive responses from patients in terms of satisfaction and treatment preference.

Innovative care models: Expanding nurses' and optometrists' roles in ophthalmology.

Nurs Ethics

March 2025

Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore; Uehiro Oxford Institute, University of Oxford.

The expanding demands of healthcare necessitate novel methods of increasing the supply of trained professionals to enhance the delivery of care services. One means of doing so is to expand allied health professionals' scope of practice. This paper explores the ethics of two examples of such expansion in ophthalmology, comparing the widely accepted practice of nurses administering intravitreal injections and the relatively less prevalent optometrists functioning as physician extenders.

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic exposed long-standing connections between health inequity and social injustice. With Millennials and Gen Z at the forefront of protests against racial injustices, the disconnect between students and educators is increasing. Students expect educators to trouble the comfort zone of the classroom and clinical settings to address the complex dynamics of anti-Black racism and oppressive practices.
