Abstract
Introduction Position adherence of patients with Pars Plana Vitrectomy with Silicone Oil Tamponade after discharge is of positive significance. However, patients undergoing a day surgery makes the quality of discharge teaching and readiness for hospital discharge is insufficient, which will influence their position adherence at home. Aim This study aimed to find the correlation of discharge teaching, readiness for hospital discharge, and position adherence in patients who underwent PPV with silicone oil tamponade from the day ward. Methods This was a cross-sectional survey. One hundred ninety-four patients with day surgery were recruited by convenient sampling from Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, China. Data were collected using the quality of discharge teaching scale, readiness for hospital discharge scale, and position adherence scale. Results Patients' education level, residence, poor postoperative vision, ophthalmic surgery history, and quality of discharge teaching are the main factors of readiness for discharge. Only 41(21%) patients had good position adherence, and education level and readiness for discharge are the main factors of position adherence. Discussion Discharge teaching improves patients' knowledge and competence of self-care and helps patients prepare for the transition from hospital to home, and readiness for hospital discharge significantly influences position adherence after discharge and indirectly plays a vital role in postoperative vision recovery and surgical effect.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e26554. [PMID: 38439820 PMCID: PMC10909674 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e26554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2023] [Revised: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The Discharge Readiness of adult patients in a hospital setting is a multidimensional concept which is becoming increasingly important internationally as part of discharge planning. To date, there has been a lack of reviews of existing measurement instruments as well as theoretical concepts of discharge readiness. Objective To provide an overview of existing measurement instruments and theoretical concepts regarding readiness for hospital discharge in adult patients. Design and methods A scoping review was conducted in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological manual and PRISMA ScR reporting principles. A literature search was conducted using the CINAHL and LIVIVO databases (including MEDLINE and PSYINDEX) in October 2021. After test screening, all identified articles were screened by two independent reviewers using predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria before the content was extracted and mapped. Results Of the 1823 records identified, 107 were included in this review. Of these, 30 studies were included as development or validation studies of measurement instruments assessing discharge readiness, 68 were included as empirical studies with readiness for hospital discharge as the primary outcome or key concept, and nine publications were included as theoretical papers or reviews. Five dimensions of readiness for hospital discharge were extracted:1) Physical, 2) Psychological, 3) Education and Knowledge, 4) Adequate Individual Support, and 5) Social and Organisational Determinants. Of the 47 instruments identified for measuring discharge readiness, 33 were validated. The Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) was the most frequently used instrument. Conclusions The systematic measurement of readiness for hospital discharge, particularly from the patient's perspective combined with the nurse's perspective, might be useful in reducing negative outcomes such as readmissions. This review provides an overview of existing and validated instruments for the systematic assessment of discharge readiness in acute inpatient care, as well as an overview of the theoretical concepts of readiness for hospital discharge. Further research is needed on the relationship between organisational determinants and readiness for discharge.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the level of readiness for discharge among parents of children with primary nephrotic syndrome and to explore the mediating role of parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress between perceived social support and readiness for discharge. DESIGN AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in five large tertiary general hospitals in Hunan, China. Data related to demographics, perceived social support, parenting self-efficacy, parenting stress, and readiness for discharge were collected from 350 parents of children diagnosed with primary nephrotic syndrome. Path analysis was used to determine the mediating roles of parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress in the relationship between perceived social support and readiness for discharge. RESULTS Parents of children with nephrotic syndrome in China experienced low perceived social support, low readiness for discharge, and high parenting stress. Factors influencing readiness for discharge include the child's age, duration of illness, first episode or relapse, parental literacy and marital status. Parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress mediated the effects of the association of perceived social support and readiness for discharge. CONCLUSION Perceived social support influences the readiness of parents of children with nephrotic syndrome. Parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress have a chain mediating effect of the association of perceived social support and readiness for discharge. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS This study emphasizes the mediating role of the psychological state of the child's parents. Nurses should take steps to increase perceived social support and parenting self-efficacy of the child's parents and to reduce parenting stress in order to improve readiness for discharge.

[PMID: 37984977 PMCID: PMC10761620 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.15164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To explore the correlation between the current status of discharge preparation, quality of discharge teaching, and fear of disease progression among patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy to provide a basis for improving patients' level of preparation. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, convenience sampling was used to select 452 patients with lung cancer who received chemotherapy and were admitted to the Department of Medical Oncology of the Cancer Hospital, between February 2023 and April 2023. A general information questionnaire, discharge preparation scale, quality of discharge teaching scale, and fear of disease progression scale were used to conduct surveys 2 h before the patients were discharged. RESULTS The score for discharge preparation among lung cancer patients with chemotherapy was 99.11 ± 14.79 and the item score was 8.26 ± 1.23. The score for quality of discharge teaching was 193.23 ± 37.69, and that for fear of disease progression was 25.47 ± 8.92. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that sex, marital status, treatment period, quality of discharge teaching, and fear of disease progression influenced discharge readiness among patients with lung cancer receiving chemotherapy. Pearson's correlation analysis showed that the total quality of the discharge guidance score was positively correlated with the discharge readiness score (r = 0.288, p < 0.001). In contrast, the total fear of disease progression score was negatively correlated with the discharge preparation score (r = -0.252, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Discharge readiness among patients with lung cancer receiving chemotherapy was relatively at the good level, and there was a significant correlation between readiness for discharge, discharge teaching and fear of disease progression in these patients. Therefore, it is necessary to provide effective discharge guidance and implement targeted intervention measures to further improve patient preparation, reduce the fear of disease progression, and promote patient ability of coping with the disease and overall satisfaction.

Abstract
AIM To explore whether and to what extent, nurse-patient assessment differences mediate the association between nurse-to-patient ratios and readiness for hospital discharge, and examine whether nurse-patient characteristics moderate the indirect and/or direct effect of mediation model. DESIGN A cross-sectional study was carried out from March 2021 to December 2022. METHODS A total of 523 pairs of gastrointestinal cancer patients with PICC and their nurses were recruited. All the participants were invited to complete the general information questionnaire and the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale. Outcome measure was patient-reported readiness for hospital discharge. This study was reported according to the STROBE checklist. RESULTS The patients reported a low level of readiness for hospital discharge. Nurse-patient assessment differences were positively associated with nurse-to-patient ratios but negatively associated with readiness for hospital discharge. Furthermore, nurse-patient assessment differences fully mediated the effect of nurse-to-patient ratios on readiness for hospital discharge, and age and gender of patients only moderated the indirect path of mediation model.

[PMID: 37775985 PMCID: PMC10643845 DOI: 10.1002/nop2.2009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 06/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM This study aimed to undertake a bibliometric analysis to provide comprehensive information in demonstrating the current status and outline the overall trends in the area of readiness for hospital discharge (RHD). DESIGN A bibliometric and visual analysis of RHD literature was undertaken. METHODS Articles were retrieved from the Web of Science network from 2002 to 2021. VOSviewer was used to identify the co-authorship network of countries/institutions, co-authorship and co-citation analysis of authors, and co-citation analysis of references and citation analysis of documents. CiteSpace was used to identify the keyword co-occurrence network and perform cluster analysis, detecting the keywords with citation bursts and speculated frontiers in this research field. RESULTS A total of 512 articles were included in the final analysis. Key findings are: (1) There has been a continuous but somewhat fluctuating rise in the number of publications. (2) 56.05% of publications come from the USA with Marquette University making the highest contribution. (3) Most publications (17, 3.32%) in RHD research were from the Journal of Clinical Nursing, and Anaesthesia and Analgesia had the highest number of citations (584 citations). (4) Weiss ME (25, 4.88%) was the most productive author whose articles have been the most highly cited (646 citations). (5) Cited references from Weiss ME (2007) also made the largest contribution to co-citations, and the most cited reference was from Jack BW (2009) (1022 citations). (6) The 20 most frequent keywords and keywords with the strongest citation bursts were retrieved. There were seven research hotspots, and three emerging research frontiers were explored. CONCLUSIONS The bibliometric analysis of material published in the last 20 years indicates that there have been statistically significant gains in comprehensive information on RHD, including the knowledge mapping of the countries, institutions, authors, references and keywords. The hotspots and frontiers, which have been explored can give guidance to researchers as to new angles and directions to take. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT The effects of the implementation of ERAS on RHD-related risk for adverse post-discharge outcomes in surgical patients will be of increasing concern for healthcare professionals. It is important for patients and their relatives to be confident that on discharge they are sufficiently ready for hospital discharge to enable them to safely and smoothly make the transition to home. Improving the level of RHD in discharged patients can help nurse managers and researchers measure the effectiveness of discharge planning services.

Abstract
Ghana experiences a relatively high maternal mortality ratio, with the majority of maternal deaths occurring in the postpartum period. Discharge readiness is a reliable indicator of maternal health outcomes and involves a postpartum woman's perception of preparedness to leave the hospital following delivery. We measured the discharge readiness of postpartum women in Ghana through an institutional-based cross-sectional study involving 151 participants. Participants completed an interviewer-administered survey, and data analyses included linear regression models. The study sample demonstrated relatively high discharge readiness, with a mean score of 177.57 on a scale from 0.00 to 220.00. Higher gravidity was positively associated with discharge readiness score, while longer length of hospital stay and receiving educational handouts were negatively associated with discharge readiness score. Clinical interventions addressing the factors found to be associated with discharge readiness have significant potential to improve postpartum care and maternal outcomes in Ghana.

Abstract
Purpose Knowledge of the readiness for hospital discharge can help health care professionals accurately determine the patients' discharge time. However, few studies were on the readiness for discharge and its related factors among mothers with cesarean sections. Thus, this study aims to examine the readiness for hospital discharge and its associated factors among Chinese mothers with cesarean sections. Patients and Methods A single-centre cross-sectional study was conducted from September 2020 to March 2021 in Guangzhou, China. Three hundred thirty-nine mothers with cesarean sections completed the questionnaires on demographic and obstetric characteristics, readiness for hospital discharge, quality for discharge teaching, parenting sense of competence, family function, and social support. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify independent factors influencing readiness for hospital discharge among mothers with cesarean sections. Results The total score of readiness for hospital discharge was 136.47 ± 25.29. The quality of discharge teaching, parenting sense of competence, number of cesareans, family function, and attending antenatal classes were independent factors influencing the readiness for hospital discharge (P < 0.05) among mothers with cesarean sections. Conclusion The readiness for hospital discharge of mothers with cesarean sections need to be improved. Improving the quality of discharge teaching, parenting sense of competence, and family function may help improve the readiness for hospital discharge of mothers with cesarean sections.

Abstract
The Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale-New Mother (RHDS-NM), originally developed for use in English-speaking populations, is an instrument designed to measure women's perceptions of readiness for hospital discharge after birth. We translated and cross-culturally adapted the RHDS-NM into Dagbani and conducted reliability and validity assessments of the new Dagbani RHDS-NM in the Tamale Metropolitan Area, Ghana. The average scale-level content validity index was excellent at 1.00. The Dagbani RHDS-NM had a Cronbach's α reliability coefficient of .94. Exploratory factor analysis indicated four factors with Cronbach's α reliability coefficients of .958, .915, .899, and .667 that represented the Personal Status, Knowledge, Expected Support, and Coping Ability subscales, respectively. Our findings provide initial evidence to support the reliability and validity of the Dagbani RHDS-NM.

Abstract
Background Gynecologic patients undergoing day surgery are discharged in an intermediate stage of recovery. The quality of discharge teaching and discharge readiness are important to patients’ postsurgical outcomes, but little research has focused on them. Methods Quality of discharge teaching and discharge readiness were measured, and Spearman correlations were conducted. Postsurgical outcomes were recorded on postoperative Day 1, postoperative Day 7, and postoperative Day 28. Generalized estimating equations were used to explore factors that influence postsurgical outcomes. Results Discharge teaching was verified to be positively correlated with the discharge readiness of participants. The generalized estimating equations indicated that discharge teaching skills, effects of doctors and nurses, patient-reported physical conditions and social support following discharge were protective factors for postsurgical outcomes. Conclusions Doctors and nurses should improve discharge teaching skills and effects to improve the postsurgical outcomes of gynecological patients undergoing day surgery. At discharge, doctors and nurses should assess patients’ physical condition and facilitate a social support system.

Abstract
Aim The aim of this study is to investigate the existing status and to explore the influencing factors of parents-reported readiness for hospital discharge in children with acute leukemia (AL) in China and to propose optimizing pathways and recommendations of discharge readiness for clinical reference. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted for the 122 children with AL who were discharged from the Second Affiliated Hospital and Yuying Children's Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University; their parents were investigated by using the modified Chinese version of Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) and Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale (QDTS). Data were collected between September 2020 and May 2021.Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to explore the influencing factors of readiness for hospital discharge. Results The 122 children with AL included 52 females and 70 males with mean age 6.08 years. The total RHDS score was 7.7 ± 1.2, and 68.9% of the participants had high readiness for hospital discharge (RHDS score >7). The total QDTS score was 7.6 ± 2.0. Parent marital status (OR = 4.86, 95% CI: 1.31-18.05), education status (OR = 3.86, 95% CI: 1.18-12.55), family per capita monthly income (OR = 1.08, 95% CI: 1.01-2.99), and high QDTS (OR = 1.56, 95% CI: 1.11-2.68) were risk factors for high RHDS. Conclusions Our data suggest parents of children with AL had high readiness for hospital discharge and had the ability to take care of their children after discharge. Parental marital status, education status, QDTS score, and family per capita monthly income were independently associated with high RHDS.

Abstract
PURPOSE Being ready for discharge is vital to successful hospital-to-home transitions. However, despite a wealth of evidence on its effectiveness, little is known about readiness for hospital discharge (RHD) in adult patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and its influencing factors. In this study, we investigated the patient-reported RHD and its influencing factors among Chinese adult patients with MDD. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this cross-sectional design study, 230 adult patients with MDD were recruited according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 6 were excluded due to incomplete questionnaires, finally 224 patients were included in our study. Data were collected from March to September 2019 in a tertiary general hospital in Hunan Province (China). The general information, RHD, quality of discharge teaching and level of depression were assessed by using questionnaires. Univariate analysis and ordinal logistic regression analysis were performed to explore the influencing factors of RHD. RESULTS The RHD score was 7.37 ± 1.40, and 36.2% of participants were not ready for discharge. The score of quality of discharge teaching scale (QDTS) was 6.36 ± 1.89, the dimension of delivery scored highest, followed by content-needed and content-received. The proportions of patients with no, mild, moderate, moderately severe and severe depression were 12.5%, 27.7%, 25.0%, 25.4% and 9.4%, respectively. The following factors were associated with RHD: the level of depression (OR=0.66), the content-received dimension of QDTS (OR=1.16), education level (OR=1.24), work status (OR=1.76) and length of hospitalization (OR=0.53). CONCLUSION The RHD among participants was at a moderate level. It is strongly suggested to take the assessment of RHD as a routine process. High education level, employment and the content-received dimension of QDTS were protective factors of participants' RHD, and long-term hospitalization, the high level of depression were its risk factors.

Wang M, Wang Y, Meng N, Li X. The factors of patient-reported readiness for hospital discharge in patients with depression: A cross-sectional study. J Psychiatr Ment Health Nurs 2021; 28:409-421. [PMID: 32981173 DOI: 10.1111/jpm.12693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2020] [Revised: 07/25/2020] [Accepted: 09/09/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT?: The attributes of readiness for hospital discharge (RHD) have been identified to be physical stability, adequate support, psychological ability, and adequate information and knowledge. Patient-reported RHD has been regarded as an outcome indicator, and poor RHD leads to unplanned readmission, emergency department visits and even death. Knowledge regarding patient-reported RHD and its factors among patients with depression is limited. WHAT THE PAPER ADDS TO EXISTING KNOWLEDGE?: RHD among patients with depression is at a moderate level. More than a quarter of people with depression had low RHD. The knowledge dimension of the RHDS among patients with depression should be further strengthened. The length of stay, content received and delivery dimensions of the QDTS were significantly associated with RHD. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE?: This study encourages nurses to assess patient-reported RHD at discharge in mental health settings. Nurses should pay more attention to patients with hospital stays longer than 20 days. Nurses could improve RHD by enhancing the quality of discharge teaching, particularly the content received and the skills nurses used to deliver such content. Nurses' managers could develop programmes to improve teaching skills via Internet technology, such as simulated patients and online interprofessional discharge planning. ABSTRACT: Introduction Low readiness for hospital discharge (RHD) can be followed by negative healthcare outcomes. However, no studies have investigated RHD among patients with depression. Aim This study aimed to examine patient-reported RHD and its factors among patients with depression. Method In total, 367 inpatients with depression were recruited and completed the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) and Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale (QDTS). A binary logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the factors of RHD among patients with depression. Results The total RHDS score was 7.70 ± 1.52. Approximately 28.9% of the participants had low RHD (RHDS score < 7). The results revealed that RHD was significantly associated with the length of stay, content received and delivery. Discussion RHD among patients with depression is at a moderate level. More than a quarter of people with depression had low RHD. To improve RHD, enhancing the quality of discharge teaching is imperative for patients with depression. Implications for Practice Nurses should pay more attention to patients with a hospital stay longer than 20 days. Nurses could improve RHD by enhancing the quality of discharge teaching, particularly the content received and the skills nurses used to deliver such content.

Abstract
AIMS Readiness for hospital discharge describes a patient's perception of feeling prepared to leave the hospital. In mixed patient populations, readiness for hospital discharge has shown to predict readmission and mortality in the short term. The objectives of a population of men and women with cardiac diseases, were to investigate: (i) whether readiness for hospital discharge predicts readmission and mortality within 1-year post-discharge, as well as (ii) the association between 'physical stability', 'adequate support', 'psychological ability', and 'adequate information and knowledge' and readiness for hospital discharge. METHODS AND RESULTS Data from the national cross-sectional survey DenHeart were used and included patients with cardiac diseases at hospital discharge. Readiness for hospital discharge was evaluated by one self-reported question, and attributes were illuminated by Short-Form-12, the Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale and ancillary questions. Data were combined with national registries at baseline and at 1-year follow-up. Cox proportional-hazards model were used to regress readmission and mortality. The analysis included 13 114 patients (response rate: 52%). The majority responded that they felt ready for hospital discharge (95%). Feeling unready (n = 618) was a predictor of 1 year, all-cause readmission among women and men [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.43, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.18-1.74; HR = 1.59, 95% CI 1.34-1.90]. No significant results were found on all-cause mortality. The four attributes were associated with unreadiness at hospital discharge. CONCLUSION Not feeling ready for hospital discharge was a predictor of increased readmission risk in women and men with cardiac disease during 1 year after hospital discharge. Four attributes were significantly impaired in patients feeling unready for hospital discharge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The time between discharge from hospital and transition to community and home is a critical period for health status among patients with a mental illness, including patients with schizophrenia. This study aimed to investigate crucial patient factors (patient-level) and hospital factors (hospital-level) affecting health status and see whether patient factor effects on health status vary with hospital factors, 30 days after hospital discharge. METHODS This is a prospective study of 1255 patients with schizophrenia and their primary caregivers from 13 public mental hospitals across Thailand. Logistic regression and multi-level logistic regression was used to investigate the effects of patient and hospital factors simultaneously on health status, 30 days after hospital discharge. RESULTS The intraclass correlation coefficient indicated that 14% of the change in health status was explained by the differences between hospital. Poor health status was identified in 14.26% of patients, 30 days after hospital discharge. The majority of participant patients were male (69.8%), single (71.87%), and the average age was 38.09 (SD = 9.74). The finding also showed that the patient factors; being female (ORadj .53, 95%CI .31,.92), perceived moderate and high levels of positive aspect of caregiving (ORadj .24, 95%CI .14,.42 and ORadj .05, 95%CI .02,.09), perceived readiness for hospital discharge (ORadj .21, 95%CI .13,.33), partial and full adherence to treatment (ORadj .24, 95%CI .14,.42 and ORadj .31, 95%CI .20,.47) showed a reduced likelihood of developing poor health status except substance use (ORadj 1.55, 95%CI .98, 2.44). Hospital factors; discharge planning process and nurse-patient ratio (ORadj 1.64, 95%CI 1.17, 2.30 and ORadj 1.16, 95%CI 1.09, 1.22) showed an increased likelihood of developing poor health status, 30 days after hospital discharge. CONCLUSIONS Findings provide relevant information on how both patient and hospital factors determine health status. These results might lead to better targeting of mental health service policy and enable more precise information gathering and allocation of resources. However, future research should be more focused and continue investigating the pathways through which hospital factors influence health status post-discharge.

Abstract
AIM To explore the interaction mechanism of cataract patients' quality of discharge teaching, discharge readiness and post-discharge outcomes using structural equation model analysis. BACKGROUND The quality of discharge teaching and discharge readiness are two indicators used to evaluate the quality of hospital discharge services. Little research has been done on the quality of discharge teaching, discharge readiness and post-discharge outcomes in cataract patients, especially in China. METHODS Four questionnaires were administered to 192 patients, and the results were analysed using Spearman's correlation and structural equation model. RESULTS The statistical analysis showed low-to-moderate correlations among the quality of discharge teaching, discharge readiness and post-discharge outcome variables; discharge readiness played an intermediary role in the interaction mechanism of the three variables. CONCLUSION The cataract patients demonstrated satisfactory quality of discharge teaching, discharge readiness and post-discharge outcomes. Quality of discharge teaching affected post-discharge outcomes through the intermediary role of discharge readiness. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT Nursing managers should recognize the importance of discharge services, pay more attention to improve the quality of discharge teaching and strengthen discharge readiness to prevent the risks of post-discharge complications and readmission.
