Since the COVID-19 outbreak, the number of studies using rapid reviews (RR) for rapid evidence-based decision-making has been increasing. RR can significantly improve the timeliness of evidence and play an important role in decision making. To clarify the definition of RR and standardize its application, the Cochrane RR Methodology Group defined RR in 2021 and published the evidence-based guidelines for RR methodology. To promote researchers' understanding of RR, standardize the application of RR methodology, and improve the overall quality of this type of research, this paper introduced the development history of RR and interpreted the definition, characteristics and methodological content of RR.
Objective To investigate the satisfaction of patients who signed up for chronic disease continuous health management services, so as to provide a theoretical basis for improving service quality. Methods We conducted an online anonymous survey by issuing an electronic questionnaire to all patients who met the inclusion criteria through the short message platform of the hospital from October 8th to 19th, 2021, and used χ2 test and logistic regression to compare the differences in satisfaction among different patients and explore the factors affecting satisfaction. Results A total of 3311 short messages were send out, and 816 valid copies of questionnaire were recalled. The total satisfaction was 77.3%, and the satisfaction before, during and after service were 86.0%, 75.2% and 73.7%, respectively. The items with low satisfaction included service pricing (58.9%), online follow-up (57.5%) and overall cost reduction (43.9%). There were significant differences in satisfaction among patients of different permanent addresses and health status (P<0.05). The multiple binary logistic regression analysis showed that the respondents in Chengdu city had lower satisfaction than those outside Sichuan province [odds ratio (OR)=0.377, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.156, 0.908), P=0.030], and the respondents with poor, general, and good self-reported health status had lower satisfaction than those with very good self-reported health status [OR=0.196, 95%CI (0.067, 0.577), P=0.003; OR=0.165, 95%CI (0.058, 0.468), P=0.001; OR=0.317, 95%CI (0.108, 0.927), P=0.036]. Conclusions The patients’ satisfaction with chronic disease continuous health management services is at a high level. The next step should focus on service pricing and online follow-up, and strive to improve the service experience of people with low satisfaction.
Day surgery can shorten the average hospital stay and enhance the recovery of patients, and has great social and economic benefits. In order to provide reference for the establishment of standardized operating room management, West China Hospital of Sichuan University summed up the experience of past years to develop this management specification for day surgery operating room. The main contents of this specification include: the principles of scheduling day surgery; the resource allocation of operating room; operating room nursing care, nursing points, and precautions. The release of this specification is conducive to the improvement of the nursing management for day surgery operating room, and the promotion of day surgery.
After the promulgation of the “Ten New Measures” for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the Nursing Department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University promptly analyzed the development and changes of the epidemic situation and the key and difficult points of nursing manpower emergency management, and constructed a “1+2+4+X” nursing manpower emergency management model for COVID-19 patients, including establishing a dedicated management team, assessing manpower needs, constructing a nursing manpower management model, on-site and online training, and dynamic monitoring and adjustment. From December 7th, 2022 to February 1st, 2023, the Nursing Department mobilized a total of 693 nurses, covering 4 temporary intensive care units and 30 temporary general wards. The hospital-wide qualification rate of airway humidification management for patients in temporary general wards was 94.9%, the qualification rate of artificial airway fixation was 97.9%, and the compliance of bed head elevation was 100.0%. The “1+2+4+X” nursing manpower emergency management model constructed is helpful for the reasonable scheduling of nursing manpower during the epidemic period and provides a reference for the emergency deployment of nursing manpower for the treatment of infectious disease epidemics in large medical institutions in the future.

Nursing is one of the disciplines that has been influenced and inspired by the evidence-based medical thinking model during early times. In the past 20 years, evidence-based nursing has developed rapidly and vigorously in the field of international nursing and has become an inevitable trend of future nursing practice. Evidence-based nursing education, research and practice have been simultaneously promoted, and construction of the platform has gradually improved, forming a systematic evidence-based nursing science system and enriching the connotation of evidence-based science.
Due to the high incidence rate, high mortality rate, high disability rate, high recurrence rate and many complications of stroke, patients are easily re-admitted after discharge, which seriously affects their quality of life. A scientific and standardized discharge plan can ensure continuous medical care for stroke patients, reduce readmission rates, and improve patient outcomes, which is of great significance for reducing the burden of stroke. This paper reviewes the development and connotation, the nursing model and the implementation status of the discharge planning among stroke patients at home and abroad, and makes recommendations on the opportunities and challenges of implementing the stroke discharge plan, in order to provide a reference for scientific and standardized stroke disease management.
Wound infection can prolong wound healing time, increase hospitalization cycle and readmission rate, seriously affect patients’ quality of life and increase economic expenditure. Timely and accurate identification and management of wound infections is key to promoting wound healing and maximizing cost-effective management. In 2022, the International Wound Infection Association published the third edition of Wound Infection in Clinical Practice: Principles of Best Practice. The consensus incorporates new advances in research and clinical practice in the areas of wound environment, risk factors for infection, biofilms, antibiotic resistance, and the identification and management of wound infections, and provides detailed approaches to infection assessment and management. This article introduces the key elements of the 2022 expert consensus and interprets the updated content to help healthcare professionals, patients, caregivers, and policy makers understand the latest consensus document, promote its clinical application in the prevention and treatment of wound infection, and better improve the quality of clinical practice.

Additionally, the article deeply interprets the new content of the 2023 updated guidelines (palliative wound care for patients with severe pressure ulcers), in order to provide efficient and convenient reference tools for domestic medical personnel to quickly grasp the latest developments in pressure ulcer treatment, standardize treatment processes, and improve treatment effectiveness.
At present, the 2019-nCoV epidemic situation is in severe and complex period. In order to prevent the virus from invading and infecting, it is very important and urgent for medical personnel to protect themselves. However, in the process of using protective equipment by medical personnel, the performance of device related pressure injuries (DRPI) caused by pain, numbness, redness, and even breakage caused by the equipment has seriously endangered the health of medical personnel. This article, based on Prevention and Treatment of Pressure Ulcers/Injuries: Quick Reference Guide 2019, references, and clinical experiences of wound specialists in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, summarize the preventive and protective measures of West China Hospital for medical personnel to prevent DRPI, so as to provide clinical preventive measurements for medical personnel.
