Abstract:
Objective: To explore the medical imaging features of lung cancer brain metastases, and to explore the application effect of health informatics process reengineering on nursing management. Methods: Retrospective analysis of the medical data of patients admitted, including the number of cases of nosocomial infections in the two years, and analysis and summary of the reasons for the hospital patients were divided into the control group and the observation group. The control group was treated with traditional care, and the observation group was re-engineered in the basic upward process of the control group. The nursing quality scores, the occurrence of nursing errors and the satisfaction of nursing were compared between the two groups. Results: The nursing quality score of the observation group was better than that of the control group. The incidence of nursing errors was lower than that of the control group. The patient’s nursing satisfaction was higher than that of the control group (P > 0.05). Conclusion: The implementation of process reengineering in nursing management can effectively improve the quality of indoor nursing work, reduce the incidence of error events in the nursing work process, and improve the satisfaction of patients and their families.

Abstract:
The ultrasonic imaging research of nursing care for preventing and treating clinical infection of hemodialysis patients based on smart medical big data is studied. 100 hemodialysis patients were selected from May 2019 to May 2020. The patients were randomly divided into the observation group and routine group with 50 cases in each group. The PWV of common carotid artery was measured by ultrasonic rapid imaging technology, including BS value at the beginning of systole and ES value at the end of systole. According to the effect of preventive nursing intervention of intelligent medical treatment, the MHD group adopted preventive nursing intervention, while the routine group adopted traditional nursing service. The infection rate and quality of life score of patients in both groups were evaluated. The results showed that there were significant differences in BS and ES values between the MHD group and PWV in the normal group ( P < 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in BS value and ES value between MHD patients with plaque and those without plaque ( P > 0.05 ). It is proved that the ultrafast ultrasound imaging technology is safe, simple, noninvasive, nonradioactive, and fast and can automatically and accurately detect carotid PWV. It is expected to become a new imaging method for quantitative evaluation of arteriosclerosis degree in MHD patients. Preventive nursing intervention can reduce the incidence of infection in hemodialysis patients and improve their quality of life. Smart medical treatment has brought us a lot of convenience. As patients, we should change our concept, actively participate in it, and contribute to the development of smart medical treatment.

Abstract:
In order to investigate the value of preoperative X-ray computed tomography (CT) in predicting the pathological grade of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. This paper retrospectively analyzed the CT image examination of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, the image characteristics of G-NEC detected by CT image, and the detection of GST by spiral CT. In order to clearly diagnose and evaluate the size and scope of the focus, whether there is adjacent tissue invasion, metastasis, and treatment effect, CT, MR, PET-CT, nuclide specific imaging, and other imaging methods are widely used in the medical treatment of pNEN patients. These imaging methods have the advantages of noninvasive, rapid imaging, objective image medium, and strong repeatability. If the pathological grade of pNEN patients can be obtained by imaging examination before operation, it will be of great benefit to the formulation of treatment strategies and the prediction of clinical outcomes. Combining CT image performance with imaging omics characteristics to establish a prediction model that can develop a better auxiliary decision-making tool for clinical practice. Different pathological grades prompt clinicians to provide personalized and accurate medical treatment for patients, and reduce excessive medical treatment or wrong judgment caused by unclear preoperative diagnostic information.

Full text
Abstract:

The purpose of this pilot protocol was to examine the process of instillation of a bladder cancer optical imaging agent for blue light cystoscopy (BLC) procedures in a preoperative area in Bronx, NY with registered nurses (RNs). The RNs followed a process flowchart and completed a checklist.

A retrospective review was completed by the Assistant Director of Research for Urology and the Study Principal Investigator on 20 charts with four time stamps. The time stamps included the “Scheduled Time of Surgery”, “In Pre Procedure”, “Medication Administration Record (MAR)”, and “In Room”. The prospective review was completed on 10 BLC procedures by the preoperative RNs. In addition to the time stamps, there were three other questions descriptively examined on consent completion, an instill catheter order, and catheter placement at the bedside.

The Wilcoxon Test Statistic was utilized to determine whether there was a significant difference between prospective and retrospective timeframes upon implementation of a standardized protocol for a preoperative procedure. The Chi-square test was performed to determine whether there was a significant difference between retrospective and prospective information on “MAR” documentation.

There is no standard protocol for the BLC procedure at this hospital. Inconsistent processes with instillation of the optical imaging agent can result in negative outcomes, delays, and unsafe environments. This pilot protocol for the BLC procedure is important to develop a standard protocol for all preoperative areas that utilize this technology across the United States.

Full text
Abstract:
The death of one�s parents, irrespective of the age at which it occurs, is generally regarded as a life experience of considerable significance. The last few years of an elderly person�s life are often characterized by increasing frailty, declining health and loss of independence. Responsibility for the spiritual and physical care of parents during that period is undertaken by many adult children. Current research in this area is generally informed by the requirements of social policy, which, by identifying and addressing the inherent difficulties in this so-called informal caring, is designed to support carers in the community. The research reported in this thesis represents a departure from this mode of inquiry and seeks, rather, to explore the existential aspects of caring in this particular situation, from the carer�s perspective. To achieve this objective, an existential phenomenological approach informed principally by the philosophies of Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty, and the adaptation of these philosophies by Schutz, Giorgi and van Manen to social science research, was developed to suit the particular requirements of the topic. In addition to the author�s autobiographic material, primary sources include conversations with five people who had been principal carers for their parents during their final illnesses. In all cases caring had ended with the parent�s death at least one year before the conversations took place. The principal secondary sources are Simone de Beauvoir�s memoir, A Very Easy Death, and Philip Roth�s account of his father�s illness and death, Patrimony: A True Story. In addition, the argument is supported throughout by reference to other literary works. From these sources a number of major existential themes, including temporality, hope, suffering, and knowing the body, have been explored in depth, in conjunction with relevant existential theories. Synthesis of these topics suggests that in this particular circumstance, for the people involved in the study, the phenomenon of caring can be understood as an unconditional engagement with the life and concerns of their parent at the end of life, and can be interpreted within an existential framework as representing an authentic way of Being.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Prostatacancer diagnostiseras oftast med en prostatabiopsi ledd utav ett transrektalt ultraljud (TRUS). Magnetisk resonanstomografi kan också användas för att upptäcka prostatacancer och en diagnos kan sedan ställas utifrån bildtagningen. Vanligare är dock att MR används som underlag inför en biopsitagning gjord med TRUS där MR-kameran används för att lokalisera misstänkt patologiska områden i prostatan och på så sätt bestäms ett lämpligt insticksställe för biopsin. Syfte: Att undersöka MR-kamerans sensitivitet vid prostatacancer, både vid enbart bildtagning och vid MR-ledd biopsi. Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie genomfördes där 12 artiklar granskades och sammanställdes till ett resultat i form av tabell. Resultat: Studierna visar en hög sensitivitet hos MR för att upptäcka både allmän och signifikant prostatacancer.   Slutsats: Resultatet från detta arbete visar att MR har en hög sensitivitet för prostatacancer och kan därför med stor säkerhet upptäcka patologiska områden inom prostatan. MR-bilderna kan även med fördel användas som ett effektivt diagnostiseringsverktyg av allmän och signifikant prostatacancer, särskilt i samband med transrektalt ultraljud.
Abstract: Prostate cancer is most often diagnosed by a prostate biopsy led by a transrectal ultrasound. Magnetic resonance tomography can also be used to find prostate cancer, and a diagnosis can then be made from the images. More commonly MRI is used as a basis for a biopsy done with TRUS where the MRI is used to localise suspected pathological areas in the prostate and in this way a suitable biopsy spot is chosen. Purpose: To examine the sensitivity of the MRI-camera for prostate cancer, both for imaging alone and for MRI-led biopsy. Method: A systematic literature review was performed where 12 articles were examined and compiled into a result presented as a chart.   Result: Shows a high sensitivity with MRI for finding both unsignificant and significant prostate cancer.   Conclusion: The results from this study shows that MRI has a high sensitivity for prostate cancer and can with great accuracy discover pathological areas in the prostate. The MRI images can advantageously be used as an effective diagnosing tool for general and significant prostate cancer, a specially combined with transrectal ultrasound.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Magnetresonanstomografi (MRT) innebär stora diagnostiska och medicinska möjligheter, men ofta ett obehag för patienterna som kan bero på en rad olika anledningar. Patienternas upplevelser i samband med en magnetkameraundersökning är viktigt för att röntgensjuksköterskan ska få patienterna att känna en trygghet och kunna etablera kontakt.  Syfte: Litteraturstudiens syfte var att belysa patienters erfarenheter i samband med en magnetkameraundersökning. Metod: En litteraturstudie med resultat från åtta kvalitativa studier. Artiklarna kvalitetgranskades samt analyserades. Sökningar har genomförts i PubMed och CINAHL.  Resultat: Utifrån analysen formades tre kategorier och åtta subkategorier. Kategorierna var: Att ligga i mr-kamera, att genomgå undersökningsproceduren samt känslor. Patienter upplever någon form av smärta och obehag i samband med MR-undersökningen. En del patienter upplever någon form av negativa känslor vid undersökningen, medan andra inte.  Konklusion: Kommunikation, trygghet och informationsanpassning är en viktig del för patienternas upplevelser i samband med en magnetkameraundersökning och möjligheten för att reducera dess negativa känslor som uppstår.
Background: Magnetic resonance imaging imply great diagnostical and medical opportunities, but entails often a discomfort for the patient, due to several different reasons. The patients’ experiences regarding the magnetic resonance imaging examination are important for the feeling of safeness and establish a contact with the x-ray nurse.  Aim: The literature study’s aim was to illustrate the experiences of patients regarding examination with magnetic resonance imaging.  Method: A literature study with results from eight qualitative studies. Articles that were reviewed with quality and were also analyzed. Searches have been carried out in PubMed and CINAHL.  Result: From the analysis, three categories were formed and also eight subcategories. The categories were: To lie in an MRI-scan, to undertake the examination procedure and also feelings. Patients experiences some kind of pain and discomfort during the MRI-scan. Some patients experience some negative feelings during the examination, whereas others do not experience that.  Conclusion: Communication, safeness and adaptation of the information are crucial parts for the experiences for the patients, regarding an examination within a magnetic resonance imaging, and the possibilities to reduce the negative feelings that occur during this kind of examination.  Keywords:

Abstract:
Inledning: Den största anledningen till att barn kommer i kontakt med sjukvården är på grund av misstänkt fraktur, vilket innebär att röntgensjuksköterskor ofta möter barn i det dagliga arbetet på röntgenavdelningen. Trots det är dessa sällan utbildade i bemötande av barn, eller inom pediatrisk bildtagning. Vuxna som inte är vana vid att hantera barn kan känna viss tveksamhet eller rädsla inför att vårda ett barn. För att kunna förbättra mötet med barn är det viktigt att veta vilka känslor sjukvårdpersonal känner i mötet, och varför. Syfte: att beskriva vilka upplevelser sjukvårdpersonal känner i mötet med barn. Metod: Studien utfördes som en litteraturöversikt med 10 artiklar som granskades med en induktiv kvalitativ innehållsanalys. De 10 artiklarna var av kvalitativ ansats och intervjuade sjukvårdspersonal som bestod av ambulanspersonal, akutsjuksköterskor, allmänsjuksköterskor och radioterapeuter. Resultat: Fyra kategorier; bemötande, hanterbarhet, tiden har betydelse och föräldrar. Dessa beskriver i vilka situationer sjukvårdspersonal upplever både negativa och positiva känslor i mötet med barn. Slutsats: att identifiera vilka känslor som uppstår är grunden för fortsatta studier för att förbättra arbetsmiljön för såväl röntgensjuksköterskor som övrig sjukvårdspersonal.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: I Sverige har alla personer rätt till lika vård. För att kunna utföra sitt arbete krävs en god kommunikation mellan röntgensjuksköterskan och patienten. Kommunikation innefattar verbala- och icke verbala uttryck, som är ytterst essentiellt för arbete inom vården. Genom omdöme, kunskap och noggrannhet måste röntgensjuksköterskan kunna ge adekvat information som berör undersökningen eller behandlingen. Informationen bör anpassas utefter patientens förmåga och vitala tillstånd att tillgodose sig denna. Syfte: Syftet var att sammanfatta faktorer som kan påverka kommunikationen mellan röntgensjuksköterskan och patienten. Metod: Denna studie genomfördes som en allmän litteraturstudie där databaserna PubMed och Cinahl användes. Totalt inkluderades och analyserades 10 artiklar i studien.  Resultat: Studiens resultat sammanfattades i 7 olika faktorer; professionalism, språk, information, hög arbetsbelastning, tid, sjukdom och ångest/rädsla. Alla faktorer kunde förbättra kommunikationen, men också försvåra den. Slutsats: Mer kunskap och medvetande om kommunikation hos röntgensjuksköterskan behövs, samt ett samarbete med kollegor för uppmuntran till kommunikation som är individanpassad. Att sammanfatta dessa faktorer kan hjälpa röntgensjuksköterskan i dennes arbete med kommunikationen till patienten i olika situationer.
Background:In Sweden, all persons are entitled to equal health care. In order for the radiographer to carry out their work, good communication between the radiographer and the patient is required. Communication with both verbal expressions and also body language which is necessary when working in health care. Through judgment, knowledge and accuracy, the radiographer must be able to provide adequate information regarding the examination or treatment.The information should be adapted according to the patient's ability and vital condition to accommodate this. Purpose: The purpose of the thesis was to summarize factors that may affect communication between the radiographer and the patient.Method: In order to achieve this, it was decided to make a qualitative, general literature study using the PubMed and Cinahl databases. A total of 10 articles were selected for the thesis. Results: The results were summarized in 7 different factors; professionalism, language, information, high workload, time, illness and anxiety/fear. All factors could improve communication, but some parts could also make it difficult. Conclusion: More knowledge and awareness of communication skills is necessary for the radiographer, as well as collaboration with colleagues to encouraging individualized communication. Summarizing these factors can help us as radiographer in our work on communicating to the patient in different situations.

Full text
Abstract:
Background; Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) are increasing in popularity in healthcare systems around the world. Positive patient satisfaction and clear fiscal savings combined with perceived low insertion and post insertion complication rates when compared to other options have secured the popularity of PICC in health care systems around the world. However little quality evidence is available to PICC inserters with regards to the safest catheter choice in order to produce the lowest levels of post insertion complications both in general adult populations as well as specific patient groups. Research question; Is the make of the PICC catheter (silicone or polyurethane) selected by nurse inserters a primary influence in patients experiencing post insertion complications? Data Analysis- Descriptive statistics were used to present demographic findings in both phases of the study. Phase One results were graphically portrayed, while Phase Two data was entered into the computer program SPSS (version 24). For Phase Two comparisons of post insertion complication rates and varying factors of both PICC type were analysed with Pearson chi test, categorical regression, two sample independent t-test, nonparametric binomial test and ANOVA. Methods; To address this research question a two phase study guided by the Gearing framework was undertaken in a Medical Imaging department of a large public hospital in Far North Queensland, Australia. The Gearing framework is a retrospective chart audit research design that comprises nine steps including: conception of the research, literature review, proposal development, data abstraction, development of protocols for data abstraction, chart audit tool, sample, ethical considerations and pilot. Phase One of the study comprised steps 1 and 2 in the Gearing framework. Consistent with the Gearing framework the literature review is presented as systematic review, and forms part of the data collection process. Phase Two encompassed steps 3 to 9 of the Gearing framework and the chart audit process. Using the tool developed in steps 1 to 9 a total of 379 charts were accessed and data recorded on 295 of these on a secure electronic device. Data collected included; demographic data, patient status, reason for insertion and reason for removal of PICC. Results; Phase One, the systematic literature review, found a large variance in reported post insertion complications from 8 to 50% of all PICC inserted. Both silicone and polyurethane PICC showed similar overall rates of post insertion complication however with closer examination strengths and weaknesses in each PICC type were noted. These finding were used to inform Phase Two of the study. Of the 295 PICC insertions included in Phase Two, 141 were silicone PICC and 154 polyurethane PICC. Various patient groups were contained within the sample including: inpatient (142), outpatient (80) and transitional (73). Reason for requiring a PICC identified 102 oncology patients, 164 requiring intravenous antibiotics and 29 requiring other types medications. Reasons for removal of catheter varied from no complication/ completion of therapy (67.8%), infection (11.2%), migration (5.8%), deceased (4.7%), occlusion (3.7%), thrombus (2.7%), breakage (2.7%), phlebitis (0.3%) and upgrade to triple lumen catheter (0.3%). Overall the number of lumens the PICC contained (p=.001) was shown to be a predictor of removal due to post insertion complications. Categorical regression showed that oncology, not the catheter type, (Beta 0.253, p=.083), to be the strongest predictor of complications. Conclusions; PICC remain a safe and reliable form of medium to long-term intravenous access across PICC types, patient groups and for all patient types. The greatest predictors of post insertion complications were number of lumens and oncology patient groups. The emerging trend of health facilities to transition inpatients to outpatients in the community with PICC insitu was shown to be a safe practice with similar post insertion complication levels to inpatients.

Abstract:
Over the last fifty years, the hospital has been technologized, corporatized, and bureaucratized due to demographic, political, economic, and scientific developments. The demographic shift has led to the greying of the population, with an associated increase in chronic disease, resulting in hospitalized patients becoming sicker and more complex. Legislative changes such as the introduction of Medicare led to a surge in the number of hospitalizations of older individuals; the subsequent move to prospective payment led to shorter hospital stays—and increased reliance on the skilled nursing facility. A change in the economic climate produced consolidation, with the resulting growth of hospital chains and hospital systems. Scientific advances, fuelled in many cases by generous research grants from the National Institutes of Health, led to new, non-invasive imaging techniques such as computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Advances in biology and epidemiology led to new approaches to the hospital’s management of diseases as disparate as heart attacks and cancer.

Abstract:
[This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the 2019 issue of the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology, Volume 16] Aim/purpose The purpose of this article is to discuss the psychosocial and emotional outcomes of an introductory health science workshop designed to support and assist incoming health science students before starting their university study. Background For the past two decades, a South Australian university offered an on-campus face to face workshop titled ‘Preparation for Health Sciences’ to incoming first-year students from eleven allied health programs such as Nursing, Physiotherapy and Medical Imaging. While many were locals, a good number came from regional and rural areas, and many were international students also. They consisted of both on-campus and off-campus students. The workshop was created as a new learning environment that was available for students of diverse age groups, educational and cultural backgrounds to prepare them to study sciences. The content of the four-day workshop was developed in consultation with the program directors of the allied health programs. The objectives were to: introduce the assumed foundational science knowledge to undertake health sciences degree; gain confidence in approaching science subjects; experience lectures and laboratory activities; and become familiar with the University campus and its facilities. The workshop was delivered a week before the orientation week, before first-year formal teaching weeks. The topics covered were enhancing study skills, medical and anatomical terminology, body systems, basic chemistry and physics, laboratory activities, and assessment of learning. Methodology In order to determine the outcomes of the workshop, a survey was used requiring participants to agree or disagree about statements concerning the preparatory course and answer open-ended questions relating to the most important information learned and the best aspects of the workshop. Several students piloted this questionnaire before use in order to ascertain the clarity of instructions, terminology and statements. The result of the 2015-2018 pre- and post-evaluation showed that the workshop raised confidence and enthusiasm in commencing university and that the majority considered the workshop useful overall. The findings of the survey are drawn upon to examine the psychosocial and emotional impacts of the workshop on participants. Using secondary qualitative analysis, the researchers identified the themes relating to the psychosocial and emotional issues conveyed by the participants. Contribution The contributions of the article are in the areas of improving students’ confidence to complete their university degrees and increasing the likelihood of academic success. Findings Of the 285 students who participated in the workshops from 2015 to 2018, 166 completed the survey conducted at the conclusion of the initiative, representing a 58% response rate. The workshops achieved the objectives outlined at the outset. While there were many findings reported (Thalluri, 2016), the results highlighted in this paper relate to the psychosocial and emotional impacts of the workshop on students. Three themes emerged, and these were Increased preparedness and confidence; Networking and friendships that enhanced support, and Reduced anxiety to study sciences. Some drawbacks were also reported including the cost, time and travel involved. Recommendations for practitioners Students found the introductory workshop to be psychosocially and emotionally beneficial. It is recommended that the same approach be applied for teaching other challenging fields such as mathematics and physics within the university and in other contexts and institutions. Recommendations for researchers Improving and extending the workshop to provide greater accessibility and autonomy is recommended. A longitudinal study to follow up the durability of the workshop is also proposed. Impact on society The impacts in the broader community include: higher academic success for students; improved mental health due to social networking and friendship groups and reduced anxiety and fear; reduced dropout rate in their first year; greater potential to complete educational degrees; reduced wastage in human and financial resources; and increased human capital. Future research Addressing the limitations of cost, time and travel involved, and following-up with the participants’ academic and workplace performance are future directions for research.

Abstract:
Aim/Purpose: [This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the 2018 issue of the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology, Volume 15] The aim of this study was to concept test a novel instructional aid called Virtual Pathology Learning Resource (VPLR), which was used as a vehicle to communicate information, and enhance teaching and learning of basic sciences (Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology) to allied health science students at a South Australian university. Background: Pathology was traditionally taught using potted specimens to independently review macroscopic features of disease. However, this approach alone was found inadequate and ineffective. For one, the potted specimens were not easily accessible for all students. VPLR is a new teaching platform comprising of digitised human normal and human pathology specimens (histology, histopathology), patient case studies, short answer and critical thinking questions, and self-assessment quizzes. Using authentic learning theory as an educational approach, this learning resource was developed to enhance the teaching and learning of Pathology. Methodology: A cross-sectional study design was used. A survey, administered at the conclusion of the course, gathered qualitative and quantitative data concerning the perceptions and experiences of the students about VPLR. The online tool SurveyMonkey was utilised so that students could respond anonymously to a web link that displayed the questionnaire. The effectiveness of the program and its perceived impact on students was assessed using a 18-item questionnaire seeking agreement or disagreement with statements about VPLR, and open-ended questions querying the best things about VPLR, benefits to be derived, and areas for improvement. Descriptive and frequency analyses were performed. Contribution: The VPLR approach involved rich learning situations, contextualised content, and facilitated greater understanding of disease concepts and problems. Findings: In a sample of 103 Medical Radiation students, 42% of students (N=43) responded to the post-intervention survey. The majority of students reported highly positive effects for each component of the VPLR. The overall results indicated that this tool was an effective strategy in teaching Pathology as it assisted students' gaining knowledge and developing professional imaging skills. Recommendations for Practitioners: As students found VLPR to be beneficial, it is recommended that the same approach be applied for teaching of Pathology to other allied health students, such as Nursing. Other universities might consider adopting this innovation for their courses. Recommendation for Researchers: Applying VPLR to other allied health science students will be undertaken next. This innovation will be appropriate for other health science students with particular emphasis on case-based or problem-based learning, and combined with clinical experiences. Impact on Society: In reshaping the way of teaching a science course, students are benefited by a greater depth of understanding of content, and increase motivation with study. These are important to keep students engaged and prepared for practice. VPLR may impact on education and technology trends so that continuous exploration and possibilities of initiatives are ongoing to help students be successful learners. Other impacts are the new forms of learning discovered, and the renewed focus on group work and collaboration and the use of technology in innovation. Future Research: Future directions of this research would be to conduct a follow-up of this cohort of students to determine if the impacts of the innovation were durable, that means the change in perceptions and behaviour are sustained over time.
