背景资料：谵妄是住院患者常见的严重临床问题，与发病率和死亡率风险增加以及医疗费用增加相关。目的：本研究旨在探讨一种新的谵妄训练计划，以提高护士照顾谵妄病人的自信心的初步效用。方法：从每个病房中挑选一名或多名护士成为“谵妄联系护士”，这些护士将把他们的特殊训练传给病房中的其他护士。结果：结果进行了评估与自我报告的15项措施，以评估自信。共有390名护士，包括32名谵妄链接护士，参加了这个计划。15个项目中有12个项目观察到显著效果。结论：这个简短的程序可以提高护士在治疗谵妄患者的自信心，但是，需要更多的工作来提高护士的能力，早期发现谵妄。（Psychosomatics 2010; 51：106-111）
Background: Delirium is a common and serious clinical problem for hospitalized patients and is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality and increased healthcare costs. Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the preliminary usefulness of a novel delirium training program to improve nurses' self-confidence in caring for patients with delirium. Method: One or more nurses were selected from each ward to become the "delirium-link nurses," and these nurses would then pass on their special training to the other nurses in their ward. Results: The outcome was evaluated with a self-reported 15-item measure to assess self-confidence. A total of 390 nurses, including 32 delirium-link nurses, participated in this program. A significant effect was observed for 12 of the 15 items. Conclusion: This brief program can improve nurses' self-confidence in treating delirium patients; however, more work is needed to improve nurses' ability to detect delirium early.
