The number of risk prediction models for deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in patients with acute stroke is increasing, while the quality and applicability of these models in clinical practice and future research remain unknown. To systematically review published studies on risk prediction models for DVT in patients with acute stroke. Systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), SinoMed, PubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) and Embase were searched from inception to November 7, 2022. Data from selected studies were extracted, including study design, data source, outcome definition, sample size, predictors, model development and performance. The Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool (PROBAST) checklist was used to assess the risk of bias and applicability. A total of 940 studies were retrieved, and after the selection process, nine prediction models from nine studies were included in this review. All studies utilised logistic regression to establish DVT risk prediction models. The incidence of DVT in patients with acute stroke ranged from 0.4 % to 28 %. The most frequently used predictors were D-dimer and age. The reported area under the curve (AUC) ranged from 0.70 to 0.912. All studies were found to have a high risk of bias, primarily due to inappropriate data sources and poor reporting of the analysis domain. The pooled AUC value of the five validated models was 0.76 (95 % confidence interval: 0.70–0.81), indicating a fair level of discrimination. Although the included studies reported a certain level of discrimination in the prediction models of DVT in patients with acute stroke, all of them were found to have a high risk of bias according to the PROBAST checklist. Future studies should focus on developing new models with larger samples, rigorous study designs, and multicentre external validation. The protocol for this study is registered with PROSPERO (registration number: CRD42022370287).

Risk prediction models for deep venous thrombosis in patients with acute stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis

With the growing trend of preparing students for lifelong learning, the theory of self-directed learning (SDL) has been increasingly applied in the context of higher education. In order to foster lifelong learning, abilities among nursing students, faculties need to have an appropriate instrument to measure the SDL abilities of nursing students.

Monitoring body temperature is essential for safe perioperative care. Without patient monitoring during each surgical phase, alterations in core body temperature will not be recognised, prevented, or treated. Safe use of warming interventions also depends on monitoring. Yet there has been limited evaluation of temperature monitoring practices as the primary endpoint. To investigate temperature monitoring practices during all stages of perioperative care. We examined what patient characteristics are associated with the rate of temperature monitoring, along with clinical variables such as warming intervention or exposure to hypothermia. An observational period-prevalence study over seven days across five Australian hospitals. Four metropolitan, tertiary hospitals and one regional hospital. We selected all adult patients (N = 1690) undergoing any surgical procedure and any mode of anaesthesia during the study period. Patient characteristics, perioperative temperature data, warming interventions and exposure to hypothermia were retrospectively collected from patient charts. We describe the frequencies and distribution of temperature data at each perioperative stage, including adherence to minimum temperature monitoring based on clinical guidelines. To examine associations with clinical variables, we also modelled the rate of temperature monitoring using each patient's count of recorded temperature measurements within their calculated time interval from anaesthetic induction to postanaesthetic care unit discharge. All analyses adjusted 95% confidence intervals (CI) for patient clustering by hospital. There were low levels of temperature monitoring, with most temperature data clustered around admission to postanaesthetic care. Over half of patients (51.8%) had two or less temperatures recorded during perioperative care and one-third (32.7%) had no temperature data at all prior to admission to postanaesthetic care. Of all patients that received active warming intervention during surgery, over two-thirds (68.5%) had no temperature monitoring recorded. In our adjusted model, associations between clinical variables and the rate of temperature monitoring often did not reflect clinical risk or need: rates were decreased for those with greatest operative risk (American Society of Anesthesiologists Classification IV: rate ratio (RR) 0.78, 95% CI 0.68–0.89; emergency surgery: RR 0.89, 0.80–0.98), and neither warming interventions (intraoperative warming: RR 1.01, 0.93–1.10; postanaesthetic care unit warming: RR 1.02, 0.98–1.07) nor hypothermia at postanaesthetic care unit admission (RR 1.12, 0.98–1.28) were associated with monitoring rate. Our findings point to the need for systems-level change to enable proactive temperature monitoring over all phases of perioperative care to enhance patient safety outcomes. Not a clinical trial.

Besides physical and mental changes from childbirth, first-time mothers are also confronted with challenges associated with the demands of adapting to their roles as new parents. While positive effects of home-based psychoeducation intervention for mothers have been demonstrated, limited studies have developed and examined more accessible and cost-effective web-based psychoeducational interventions for mothers.

Patient flow problems, including discharge delay and after-hours discharge, have been a consistently major issue, especially for intensive care units (ICUs). Evidence suggests that discharge delay and after-hours discharge are associated with increased ICU and hospital length of stay, leading to worsened patient outcomes and increased healthcare costs. They can also increase ICU readmission and post-ICU mortality. The factors influencing discharge processes are not well elucidated.
