Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to investigate hospital nurses' perceptions of illness due to environmental exposures. Design: A qualitative exploratory study, designed in accordance with the specified reporting guidelines for qualitative research. Sample: Nurses working in Italian hospitals. Methods: Semi‐structured interviews were used to collect data, then evaluated using the framework analysis methodology. Data collection was from January to June 2022 and analysed from July to September 2022. Results: Forty‐two nurses were interviewed. Data analysis revealed three themes: 1) the concept of disease in relation to environmental exposure; 2) the dangers of chemical and physical substances; 3) environmental changes cause concern and a sense of helplessness for the future. Conclusions: The results suggest the need for specific training on topics related to environmental disease types, environmental exposure, preventive measures, health promotion, and environmental impact to support professional development and support nurses in the management of this important aspect of health care.

Abstract

Self‐care performed by patients and the caregiver contribution to this self‐care are essential for improving cardiovascular outcomes; however, so far, no studies have sufficiently investigated this field in Italy. This paper describes a research protocol of a multi‐center longitudinal study designed to investigate the self‐care of patients affected by coronary heart disease (CHD), the caregiver's contribution to this self‐care, the predictors of patient and caregiver self‐care, the mediating role of self‐efficacy, and the self‐care outcomes. Data collection will be performed across seven Italian inpatient settings at baseline and 3 and 6 months from enrollment. Multilevel modeling and actor partner interdependence models will be implemented on a sample of 330 patient–caregiver dyads to adjust for the interdependence of measurements. The study received approval from an ethics committee in Italy and was financed in January 2021 by a grant from the Solidal Foundation in Alessandria. This research will advance the knowledge about the self‐care process in CHD. The results will guide research and clinical practice by identifying variables sensitive to educational interventions.

32. Quality of life in patients with PICC diagnosed with mesothelioma: Results of a multicenter epidemiological survey (LifePICC)

Abstract

Background: Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is a rare and aggressive cancer. PICC devices are widely used in cancer patients. The aim of the study is to evaluate the quality of life of patients with PICC diagnosed with PM treated at the Hospital of Casale Monferrato and Alessandria (Italy), an area with a high incidence of asbestos-related diseases.Study design and methods: Longitudinal prospective observational study with data collection at PICC insertion (T0), after 3 months (T1), 6 months (T2), and 9 months (T3). Participants were aged >18 years, diagnosed with PM, eligible for PICC insertion. Questionnaires used: EORTC QLQ-C30, EORTC QLQ-LC13, and HADS rating scale.Results: Twenty-eight patients were enrolled. The mean age was 68.93 years (SD 9.13), mostly male (57.1%). The most frequent cancer stage at diagnosis was III (39.3%), then I (32.1%), and IV (21.4%). 85.7% were treated with chemotherapy, 14.3% also with immunotherapy. 96.4% of patients reported no complications during PICC implantation. The perception of health status and quality of life, measured on a scale of 1–7, was in line with an average score of 5 during the evaluation period. The total anxiety and depression score remained normal for most patients (0–7).Conclusions: The PICC management involved a multidisciplinary team with different skills: study findings revealed the key role that dedicated nurses play in PICC placement and ensuring patient problems are promptly addressed. From our study results, PICC placement does not seem to negatively impact the patient’s quality of life.

Abstract

. Assessing the impact of bladder ultrasound on catheter-associated urinary tract infections and health-care costs: an observational pre-post study., Introduction: The placement of a urinary catheter is a standard procedure, but it can cause discomfort, increase the risk of infections and costs. Pelvic ultrasound is a non-invasive assessment of the bladder and bladder catheter placement that can be performed by nurses., Aim: To assess the appropriateness of urinary catheter placement using bladder ultrasound, to monitor urinary catheter-associated urinary tract infections and costs associated with catheter use., Methods: A single-centre pre-post observational study was conducted from September 2021 to August 2022 in patients aged >18 years requiring urinary monitoring; the first 6 months patients were assessed without the use of bladder ultrasound (control group), while the last 6 months with bladder ultrasound., Results: 189 patients were included in the pre-ultrasound group and 175 patients in the post-ultrasound group; the demographic and clinical characteristics of the two groups were comparable. The rate of inappropriate catheterisation was 22.6% in the pre-group, whereas no inappropriate catheterisation was performed in the post-group. There was a 2.2% of absolute reduction in the rate of urinary tract infections (from 8.5% to 6.3%). Costs associated with the use of urinary catheters were reduced by 74.2% (from 173 to 44.8 euros)., Conclusions: Bladder ultrasound in clinical practice is feasible and reduced the inappropriate use of bladder catheters, reducing patient risks and healthcare costs.

Abstract

The method for determining the value of the index of caring complexity (ICC) is a multi-dimensional capable of resolving the problem of assessing the complexity of care. The fields of application of ICC methodology are multidisciplinary. The ICC method was applied in hospitals and territorial services and could also be useful for free professionals. Methodology is part and parcel of the caring process and does not therefore require specific data collection for classifying patients but the "scores " derive directly from the data flow obtained during the caring process.
