    Objective To investigate the life space of elderly patients with ischemic stroke (IS) after discharge, and to analyze its influencing factors. Methods Totally 340 elderly IS patients were selected at 1 year after discharge, and surveyed using a general situation questionnaire, Hamilton anxiety scale and Hamilton depression scale, Connor-Davidson resilience scale, exercise self-efficacy scale, and life space assessment scale. Results The life space score of elderly patients with IS after discharge was(42.49±10.93) points. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, degree of education, complications with other chronic diseases, living condition, monthly income per capita, depression, quality of home care, mental resilience and exercise self-efficacy were independent influencing factors (F=260.208,P<0.001).

Moreover, the satisfaction of nurses to electronic puncture atlas was higher than paper puncture atlas (Z=27.500, P<0.001).

Methods A total of 277 psychiatric nurses from Xiamen Xianyue hospital were selected by using the convenience sampling method, and surveyed using a general information questionnaire, workplace spirituality scale (WSS), spiritual leadership questionnaire, survey of perceived organizational support and general self-efficacy scale. Results The total WSS score was (108.31±20.03) points. Moreover, Pearson correlation analysis showed that the WSS score was positively correlated with the scores of spiritual leadership, organizational support and self-efficacy(r=0.886, P<0.001; r=0.827, P<0.001; r=0.800, P<0.001). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender, job level, job type, average number of night shifts per month, spiritual leadership, sense of organizational support and sense of self-efficacy were independent influencing factors of workplace spirituality of psychiatric nurses (R2=0.870, adjusted R2=0.867; F=7.308, P<0.001). Conclusion The workplace spirituality of psychiatric nurses is above the average level with various influencing factors. Therefore, nursing managers, in addition to the improvement of their spiritual leadership, should pay attention to female psychiatric nurses with low job level, sense of organizational support or self-efficacy, as well as those of many night shifts to promote their workplace spirituality.
