ObjectiveTo investigate nurses' attitude on the reporting of clinical adverse events and analyze its correlated factors in the Emergency Department. MethodsA total of 130 nurses in a class-3 grade-A hospital were recruited in our study by convenience sampling method during November and December 2014. The Chinese version of Reporting of Clinical Adverse Events Scale was applied to assess nurses' attitude on reporting adverse events. ResultsThe nurses' willingness to report adverse events in the Emergency Department was generally low, and the attitude scores of nurses in the triage zone, rescue zone, monitoring zone and observation zone were respectively 65.62±1.16, 65.49±0.58, 65.06±0.80, and 63.20±0.86, without any significant difference among these zones (P>0.05). The attitude scores of nurses with a seniority of 1-2, 3-5, 6-9, and ≥ 10 years were respectively 67.37±3.27, 64.49±3.98, 63.77±4.82, and 64.30±4.52, with significant differences among these seniority groups (P＜0.05). The attitude scores of nurses with a rank of nurse-in-charge, primary nurse, and nurse were respectively 61.25±4.02, 63.97±4.52, and 65.92±4.02, also with significant differences among these groups (P＜0.05). ConclusionsThe willingness of reporting clinical adverse events in emergency nurses is not high. It is necessary to strengthen the training of nurses on their cognition of adverse events and encourage reporting, thus to create a non-punishment hospital security culture.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the influence of personalized nursing intervention on the negative emotions after occupational exposure for nurses in the Emergency Department, in order to provide effective nursing intervention methods for relieving nurses' negative emotions after occupational exposure. MethodsTwenty nurses with occupational exposure between January and September 2013 were chosen to be the control group, and another 20 nurses with occupational exposure between October 2013 and October 2014 were designated as the personalized nursing group. The level of depression and anxiety was compared between the two groups by using the self-rating depression scale (SDS) and self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) on the exposure day and 5 weeks after the exposure. ResultsBefore intervention, SDS score of the control group was 0.65±0.04 and of the personalized nursing group was 0.63±0.05, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (t=0.59, P=0.44); SAS score of the control group was 51.98±6.77 and of the personalized nursing group was 50.73±10.03, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (t=0.37, P=0.70). After the intervention, personalized nursing group had lower scores of SDS and SAS than the control group. SDS score was 0.64±0.11 in the control group and 0.50±0.09 in the personalized nursing group with a significant difference (t=5.11, P < 0.01); SAS score was 49.53±9.49 in the control group and 42.66±9.53 in the personalized nursing group, and the difference was statistically significant (t=4.10, P < 0.01). ConclusionThe personalized nursing intervention can effectively alleviate negative emotions after occupational exposure for nurses in the Emergency Department.
