Meta- analysis of Psychosocial Interventions to Reduce Pain in Patients with Cancer: Pok Ja Oh, Suk Jung Han; J Korean Acad Nurs 2013;43(5):658-668. Published online October 15, 2013; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2013.43.5.658

Abstract Purpose

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of psychosocial interventions on pain in cancer patients.

Methods

Eight studies published between 1980 and 2012 in Korean and ten studies published between 2002 and 2012 in English met the inclusion criteria with a total of 1539 participants. Methodological quality assessed by Cochrane's Risk of Bias for randomized studies and Risk of Bias Assessment tool for non randomized studies. The data were analyzed by the RevMan 5.2 program of Cochrane library.

Results

Overall, study quality was moderate to high. Effect sizes were heterogeneous and subgroup analysis was done. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) were effective for pain (ES= -0.35; 95% CI= -0.56, -0.13). Pain education studies measured with NRS and VAS were effective for pain (ES= -0.77; 95% CI= -1.01, -0.52). Publication bias was not detected.

Conclusion

This study support the use of psychosocial interventions administered to cancer patients for their pain management. However, more well-designed studies are needed.

Abstract PDF

Purpose

This study was designed to create a job description for Korean geriatric care managers and examine performance frequency, importance, and difficulty of task elements.

Method

The sample consisted of 38 geriatric care managers and professors who performed duties related to geriatric care management at community based-facilities in Korea. A survey method was used, and the questionnaire included frequency, importance, and difficulty of task elements in job descriptions using the DACUM method. Using SPSS WIN 10.0, descriptive statistics such as frequency distribution, means, and standard deviation were conducted to examine the subject's general characteristics, frequency, importance, and difficulties of task performance.

Result

The job descri ption of geriatric care managers revealed 10 duties, 34 tasks, and 105 task elements. On all ten duties, the average performance frequency, importance, and difficulty was 2.55, 2.21 and 2.43 respectively.

Conclusion

The job description of geriatric care managers includes duty, task, and task elements and the definition of a completed job. Thus we recommend a data based trial to confirm and validate the information gathered.

The Effects of a Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients: Suk Jung Han; Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2003;33(7):1008-1017. Published online March 28, 2017; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2003.33.7.1008

Abstract PDF

Purpose

This study was designed to investigate the effects of a pulmonary rehabilitation program for patients with COPD.

Method

37 subjects, who had a FEV1/FVC below 70%, participated. 18 were assigned to the experimental group and 19 to the control group. The program consisted of individualized education program and exercise program for 6weeks, 3times a week. Data was collected through questionnaire surveys of general characteristics, anxiety and depression, blood tests for lactic acid and cardiopulmonary exercise tests, and also using bicycle ergometer, for exercise capacity. As for data analyses, paired and unpaired t-test and x²-test were adopted using an SPSS program.

Result

The result revealed that the increase in VT, peak VO2, VEmax, HRmax and Wmax, at the maximal exercise, were significantly high in the experimental group. However, the anxiety and depression scores were not significantly high in the experimental group.

Conclusion

The pulmonary rehabilitation program was effective in increasing cardiopulmonary endurance in patients with COPD. Accordingly, we should seriously consider an individualized pulmonary rehabilitation program as a nursing intervention.
