Objective: To evaluate the impact and clinical effect of high-quality nursing intervention on the quality of life of elderly cataract patients and its clinical effect.
Methods: This is a clinical comparative study. One hundred and twenty elderly cataract patients admitted to Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital for surgical treatment were recruited and randomly divided into two groups: the control and experimental group, with 60 cases in each group from January 15, 2021 to January 15, 2022. Patients in the control group were given conventional nursing care in the perioperative period, while those in the experimental group were given high-quality nursing intervention in the perioperative period. The differences in anxiety (SAS) scores, depression (SDS) scores, intraocular pressure (IOP) recovery, the incidence of surgical complications and satisfaction before and after treatment between the two groups were compared and analyzed.
Results: No statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups in physical functioning, psychological functioning, social functioning and material life status scores before intervention(P>0.05). After the intervention, the above indicators improved significantly in the experimental group compared to the control group, with statistically significant differences (P=0.00). Moreover, SAS and SDS decreased significantly in the experimental group compared to the control group, with statistically significant differences(P=0.00).
Conclusions: High-quality nursing intervention improves various benefits in the treatment of elderly cataract patients, such as effectively reducing intraocular pressure, ameliorating patients' quality of life, lowering the incidence of postoperative complications, and improving patient satisfaction.

Aim: Standardized quality indicators for long-term care (QIs-LTC) were previously developed to ensure high-quality holistic nursing care for older adults. This research aimed to assess the feasibility and reliability of unfavorable health outcomes measured by the QIs-LTC and proposed strategies for improvement.
Methods: Thirty-nine pairs of home care nurses assessed 53 clients.

Background: Literature reviews are essential in nursing for integrating research into practice, informing clinical guidelines and shaping health policy. They comprehensively synthesise the available evidence, supporting nurses in making informed decisions that improve patient care. It is therefore crucial when researchers are selecting the method most appropriate for investigating their clinical questions that they understand the different types of literature review.

Objective: Examine the relationship between race and ethnicity and area-level social deprivation and Medicare home health care (HHC) agency quality for seriously ill older adults receiving HHC.
Methods: A linear probability fixed effects model analyzed the association between patient-level predictors and HHC agency quality (star-rating), controlling for neighborhood level fixed effects. Linear mixed regression modeled the relationship between area-level social deprivation and receiving care from a high-quality HHC agency.
