But training evaluation is not systematic until Kirkpatrick came up with the training evaluation model in 1959. At present, the prevailing model in the systematic summary of training evaluation is still The Kirkpatrick’s model. This model was further improved in 1994, more responsive to contemporary needs, and thus widely used all over the world. At the beginning, it was widely used in human resource management of enterprises. In recent years, this model has been gradually used in the medical field to evaluate the effect of medical training. The Kirkpatrick’s model has a systematic, integrated and persuasive evaluation system for trainees. It has good effects in the pre-service nurse training, the professional image and code of conduct nurses training, and the geriatric nurse training. At present, there are few studies on the chemotherapeutic drug training of neurologist nurses in China. In clinical work, nurses’ cognitive and practical behaviors of chemotherapeutic drug protection and drug extravasation prevention and treatment are insufficient. It directly harms the health of nursing staff and increases the complications of chemotherapy, increases pain of tumor patients, delays or interrupts chemotherapy, and aggravates the economic burden of patients. Especially, Chemotherapeutic drugs for neuro-oncology have particularity and necessity of urgent training. <strong>Objective:</strong> To investigate the effect of chemotherapeutic drug training through mobile terminal for neuro-oncology nurses based on the Kirkpatrick’s model. <strong>Methods: </strong>The training content and evaluation questionnaire for chemotherapeutic drugs were designed by nursing management personnel and senior nurses in our department according to the guidelines and common diseases requiring chemotherapy in the department. The content includes the basic knowledge of neuro-oncology chemotherapy, pharmacological knowledge, toxic and side effect of chemotherapy, etc., which are regularly pushed through the mobile terminal-WeChat. Forty nurses participated in the training and the effect is evaluated by Kirkpatrick’s model. <strong>Result:</strong> After the training, 100% of nurses were satisfied with the training content and 97.5% with the training form. The scores of nurses in learning level such as basic pharmacological knowledge, drug configuration and exposure, drug treatment and infusion, observation of toxic and side effects, and treatment of drug extravasation were significantly higher than those before the training (P < 0.01). The scores of nurses in the behavior level such as drug allocation, health education, toxic and side effect observation and prediction, treatment of exosmosis, occupational protection were significantly higher than those before the training. After the training, the satisfaction of managers, chemotherapy physicians and chemotherapy patients on the behavior of nurses was significantly higher than that before the training (P < 0.01). <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The chemotherapeutic drug training through mobile terminal based on Kirkpatrick’s model can improve the ability of neuro-oncology nurses, so as to improve the satisfaction of physicians and patients.</span> </div>展开更多

文摘Purpose:Our previous study has shown that PTPRZ1-MET(ZM)fusion is a viable target for MET inhibitors in gliomas.However,the diversity and prevalence of somatic MET alterations in difuse gliomas are still elusive and need to be extensively characterized for identifying novel therapeutic targets.Methods:Totally,1,350 glioma patients and 31 patient-derived cells were collected from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas(CGGA)and published data.All kinds of MET fusions and/or splicing variants(MET F/SVs)were identifed by bioinformatical methods.Single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)were used for validation.In vitro experiments of drug resistance were conducted for the possibility of MET-targeted treatment.Results:MET F/SVs but not genomic amplifcation,were highly enriched in the secondary glioblastomas(sGBM)and marked worse prognosis.Further molecular and scRNA-seq analysis revealed that MET F/SVs were induced in the course of glioma evolution and highly associated with MET overexpression.Subsequent in vitro and the clinical study showed that cells and patients harboring MET F/SVs have better response to MET inhibitors.Conclusion:Our fndings expanded the percentage of gliomas with abnormal MET alterations and suggested that a subgroup of gliomas harboring MET F/SVs may beneft from MET-targeted therapy.
