Effects of Self-Regulated Digital Learning on Competence in Motivational Interviewing on Patients' Medication Adherence Among Psychiatric Mental Health Nurses

Motivational interviewing is an essential practical skill to promote medication adherence; however, it is rarely emphasised in nursing education. Purposes: 1. To develop a self-regulated digital learning system for motivational interviewing; 2. To evaluate the effectiveness of digital learning of motivational interviewing on mental health nurses' knowledge, skills and self-efficacy; 3. To compare the effectiveness of self-regulated digital learning, blended learning and treatment as usual learning.

Associations of COVID-19-related fear with kidney disease quality of life and its subscales among hemodialysis patients as modified by health literacy: a multi-hospital survey

Article

作者: Do, Binh N ; Trinh, Manh V ; Pham, Minh D ; Ha, Tung H ; Dang, Loan T ; Nguyen, Hoang C ; Do, Thinh V ; Nguyen, Dung H ; Le, Lan T H ; Pham, Linh V ; Duong, Tuyen Van ; Nguyen, Thao T P ; Tran, Tu T ; Trieu, Nga T ; Hoang, Trung A ; Nguyen, Kien T ; Nguyen, Lien T H ; Phan, Dung T ; Nguyen, Hoi T

Background:

Receiving hemodialysis treatment makes end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients highly vulnerable amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Hence, their kidney disease quality of life (KDQOL) is affected. We aimed to examine the association between fear of COVID-19 (FCoV-19) and KDQOL, and the effect modification of Health literacy (HL) on this association.

Material and Methods:

A survey was conducted at 8 hospitals from July 2020 to March 2021 on 972 patients. Data collection includes socio-demographic factors, clinical parameters, HL, digital healthy diet literacy (DDL), hemodialysis diet knowledge (HDK), FCoV-19, suspected COVID-19 symptoms (S-COVID-19-S), and KDQOL.

Results:

Higher HL scores B = 0.13 (95% CI = 0.06-0.21, p = 0.001) and HDK scores B = 0.58 (95% CI = 0.31-0.85, p = 0.001) were associated with higher KDQOL scores. Whereas, S-COVID-19-S B = -6.12 (95% CI = -7.66 to - 4.58, p = 0.001) and FCoV-19 B = -0.91 (95% CI = -1.03 to - 0.80, p = 0.001) were associated with lower KDQOL scores. Notably, higher HL scores significantly attenuate the negative impact of FCoV-19 on overall KDQOL and the kidney disease component summary.

Conclusions:

In hemodialysis patients, FCoV-19 and S-COVID-19-S were associated with a lower KDQOL. Health literacy significantly mitigates the negative impact of FCoV-19 on KDQOL. Strategic public health interventions to improve HL are suggested to protect patient's KDQOL during the pandemic.

Measurement Invariance of the Hospice Quality of Life Index-14 in Lung Cancer and Nonlung Cancer Patients Admitted to Hospice

Article

作者: Doorenbos, Ardith Z ; Beckstead, Jason W ; Longcoy, Joshua ; Tai, Chun-Yi ; Longcoy, Li-Ting H

Background and Purpose:Establishing measurement invariance (MI) is important in the questionnaire validation process. This study examined the MI of the Hospice Quality of Life Index-14 (HQLI-14) when comparing hospice patients with lung cancer and those with nonlung cancers.Methods:The HQLI-14 contains 14 items to measure multidimensional concepts of quality of life. A series of confirmatory factor analyses were performed to test configural, metric, and scalar invariance.Results:The MI of the HQLI-14 was supported by increasing equality constraints on item parameters between groups. Although the configural and metric invariances were both supported, one item regarding breathlessness was noninvariant between the groups with lung and nonlung cancers.Conclusions:The HQLI-14 shows early evidence of meeting the requirements for configural, metric, and partial scalar invariance. It may be used to make meaningful comparisons between patients with lung cancer and nonlung cancers.

Risk of Suicide in Association with Major Depressive Disorder among Patients with Dementia: A Population-based Nested Case-Control Study.

Article

作者: Liu, Chien-Hui ; Lin, Chih-Yuan ; Liu, Chih-Ching ; Wang, Jiun-Yi ; Hsu, Yi-Ting ; Chang, Kun-Chia

OBJECTIVE:

This study aimed to explore the association between major depressive disorder (MDD) and suicide risk in dementia patients.

METHODS:

A cohort of 625,218 individuals aged ≥40 years with dementia between 2007 and 2018 was identified from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. After excluding prevalent cases in 2007. Subsequently, a nested case-control study enrolled 1,256 suicide cases and 5,022 matched controls was conducted. The frequencies of MDD-related outpatient or inpatient visits over a 7-year period preceding the event dates were calculated and analyzed for association using conditional logistic regression.

RESULTS:

Dementia comorbid with MDD was associated with increased suicide risk (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 2.67), particularly in individuals with ≤1.0 MDD episodes per year (AOR: 2.85). Similar association was observed only in individuals aged ≥65 years and males, with a pronounced risk of suicide in those ≤1.0 MDD episodes per year (AOR: 3.08 for individuals aged ≥65 years; AOR: 3.28 for males). Conversely, the risk increase was evident with >1.0 MDD episodes per year in those aged <65 years (AOR: 3.04) and females (AOR: 2.45).

CONCLUSIONS:

MDD is associated with suicide risk in dementia patients, with the strength of this association possibly varying by age and gender.

Consumer Ear Buds Are Nearly as Good as Hearing Aids

A disproportionate number of people with hearing loss don’t have hearing aids. Cost is the major factor that prevents people from getting help when their hearing degrades. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if relatively inexpensive earbuds could could fill the need? A set of AirPods Pro costs $249, which is quite rich compared to most personal earbuds, but a pittance when the alternatives are hearing aids that average $5,000 per pair. Even the least expensive conventional hearing aids can cost $1,500, so the AirPods Pro remain a relative bargain. Researchers from National Taipei University of Nursing and Health Sciences, Taipei Veterans General Hospital, and National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University recently tested whether Apple AirPod and AirPod Pro earbuds could meet meet the same electroacoustic criteria as hearing aids. They also investigated whether AirPods and AirPods Pro earbuds could help people with mild-to-moderate hearing loss hear speech in natural settings. The team published the results of the study in iScience. The team found that AirPods Pro did indeed meet most of the hearing aid electroacoustic standards and helped the study participants compensate for their hearing loss. The hearing device study tested the electroacoustic features of AirPods and AirPods Pro to see how they met five ANSI/CTA-2051 performance standards for personal sound amplification products (PSAPs). The test subjects consisted of 21 adults with an average age 42.9. The participants had mild-to-moderate hearing loss and no previous experience with hearing aids. The researchers tested the subjects with basic and premium hearing aids as well as the AirPods and AirPods Pro. The study results were mixed, but show promise. The AirPods met two of the five and the AirPods Pro succeeded with four out of five PSAP standards. The AirPods didn’t perform as well as conventional hearing aids, but the AirPods Pro were the approximate equivalent of the tested hearing aids. In quiet environments the AirPods Pro assisted subjects’ hearing loss about as well the same as the hearing aids. With background noise added to the mix, however, the premium hearing aids scored significantly better than the basic hearing aids, the AirPods, and AirPods Pro. One interesting note, however, is that the AirPods Pro worked as well as the premium hearing aids when noises came from the side, but were not as effective with speech and noise in front of the wearers. Next steps for the Taiwanese researchers include tests with larger subject groups and additional PSAPs. The AirPods and AirPods Pro may not compete with basic or premium hearing aids on all levels, but they can help people with unassisted hearing loss. We look forward to see more tested studies of the potential for personal hearing devices helping with hearing loss. Just as your smartphone camera is probably as good or better than any 35 mm camera you owned, we may soon find that inexpensive earbuds can be as good as or even better than dedicated hearables.
