Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of integrated psychoeducational program for distress management of newly diagnosed patients with breast cancer. Methods: A quasi-experimental trial was conducted. The participants consisted of 47 female patients with breast cancer assigned to an intervention group (n=25) and control group (n=22). The intervention group participated in integrated psychoeducational program, consisting of individual face-to-face education and telephone-delivered health-coaching sessions. Data were collected at three time points: pre-intervention (T1), post-intervention (T2), and 6-month follow-up (T3). Study instruments were Distress thermometer, Supportive Care Needs Survey Short Form 34 and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast. Results: Compared with the control group, breast cancer patients in the intervention group reported lower distress and supportive care needs than the control group. The intervention group reported higher quality of life (QOL) overall and higher emotional well-being than the control group. Conclusion: These findings indicate that the integrated psychoeducational program is an effective intervention for reducing distress and supportive care needs and increasing QOL of newly diagnosed patients with breast cancer. Oncology nurses need to provide psychoeducational intervention to support patients with breast cancer in managing their distress and helping them adjust to their life.

The purpose of this research was fourfold: (a) to identify the use rate of the indirect care interventions performed by nurses, (b) to estimate the time to perform each intervention, (c) to identify the indirect care interventions to be delegated to others, and (d) to determine the level of provider preparation needed to delegate indirect care interventions. The sample consisted of 199 nurses working in three hospitals. The Indirect Care Survey developed by the Iowa Intervention Project team was used for data collection. The instrument was translated to Korean and validated by nurse experts. Each of the 26 indirect care interventions were used several times a day. Four interventions (i.e.. Documentation, Shift Report, Specimen Management, and Transport) were performed several times a day by 50% or more of the nurses. The most frequently used intervention was Documentation, followed by the interventions Shift report. Environmental Management, Transport, and Examination Assistance. The least used intervention was Quality Monitoring, followed by the interventions Order Transcription, Referral, Health Care Information Exchange, Multidisciplinary Care Conference, and Product Evaluation. The intervention taking the most time to per-form was Technology Management (155.3 minutes), followed by the interventions Documentation, (122.2 minutes), Delegation (84.4 minutes), Supply management (83.4 minutes), and Preceptor: Student (79.9 minutes), Overall, the nurses reported that they would not delegate to others the majority of the interventions. More than 50% of the nurses would not delegate 21 interventions. Shift Report would not be delegated by 95% of the nurses and Documentation would not be delegated by 92% of the nurses. Caregiver Support would be delegated by 68% of the nurses to family. Three interventions (i.e.. Environmental Management, Examination Assistance, and Transport) would be delegated by more than 50% of the nurses to Nursing Assistant. This study will contributes to determining costs of nursing services and enhancing quality of nursing care. Replication study will be needed with large sample.

The purpose of this study was to develop on east-west nursing intervention program. This study was conducted to identify the effectiveness of using facial meridian points for massage nursing intervention on the recovery of facial paralysis for 46 patients (22 for experimental group). All had suffered from strokes, and were also admitted to the division of oriental medicine in K University Hospital. Method: Data was collected from February 1st to December 31st of 2000. This study used a quasi experimental, non-equivalent control group pre-test and post-test design. The recovery of facial paralysis was measured by the difference between left and right facial length, observation and self report on a seven point scale, and facial discomfort by a facial scale after 6-7 facial massages in a two week period. Data was analyzed using the SPSS package program with x2 and t test. Result: The result of this study are as follows; The experimental group who received the facial meridian massage showed higher scores in recovery of facial paralysis (t=2.72, p=.009), and a smaller difference between left and right facial strength than those in control group (t=2.26, p= .29). The discomfort of the facial area in the experimental and control group showed no significant differences. Conclusion: These findings indicate that a facial meridian points massage could be an effective nursing intervention to the recovery of facial paralysis. This study contributes in developing an east-west nursing intervention with the oriental meridian theory and western massage therapy.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the characteristics of an intervention program for school-aged overweight and obese children through an integrated literature review. Methods: We used five databases (MEDLINE [PubMed], CINAHL, Embase, DBpia, and RISS) to search for studies published between January 1, 2013, and April 18, 2018. The studies were reviewed according to specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Finally, nine studies were selected and classified into three types: school-based, community-based, and home-based. Specific intervention methods were identified, including exercise, diet, exercise and diet, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Conclusion: Most studies have shown the effectiveness of obesity intervention programs. However, the variables, tools, and methods of measuring the effectiveness of intervention varied, making it difficult to compare the intervention studies. Therefore, future studies should develop objective and integrated measurement tools and evaluate the effects with long-term follow-up.

Purpose: This study was conducted to adapt the standardized evidence-based nursing protocol using the IPC (intermittent pneumatic compression) intervention to prevent venous thromboembolism in surgical patients. Further, an investigation was done to measure knowledge on prevention of venous thromboembolism, surrogate incidence of venous thromboembolism and to assess IPC compliance in the study patients compared with those in surgical patients who underwent IPC intervention due to previous clinical experience. Methods: An analysis was done of the nine modules suggested by National Evidence-based Healthcare Collaborating Agency (NECA) in the adaptation manual of the clinical practice guideline for protocol adaptation. A nonequivalent control group post test design as a quasi-experiment was used to verify the effect of the IPC protocol. Results: There was a significant difference in knowledge of prevention of venous thromboembolism, IPC application time after intervention and the number of IPC applications between the experimental group (n=50) using the IPC nursing protocol and the control group (n=49). However, the symptoms of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism were not observed in either the experimental group or the control group after the intervention. Conclusion: Results confirm that the standardized IPC nursing protocol provides effective intervention to prevent venous thromboembolism in surgical patients.
