    Objective To understand nurses' cognition of near-miss events in the transfer of critically ill patients, so as to provide a reference for promoting its safe management. Methods A phenomenological research method was applied to conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews with 13 intensive care unit (ICU) nurses in the first affiliated hospital of Hunan university of Chinese medicine, and the Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to analyze the interview data and refine the themes. Results A total of five themes were extracted: (1) ICU nurses' insufficient knowledge of critical patients' near-miss transfer, (2)lack of nursing competence, deviation in implementation, and unexpected situational pressures leading to near-miss events, (3) ICU nurses suffering from a complex psychological experience of fear, self-blame, gratitude, and fluke in the face of such events, (4) ICU nurses' concealment and selective help-seeking in response to such events, (5)barriers to ICU nurses' practice of managing such conditions (inappropriate or insufficient allocation of human resources, lack of education and training for nursing managers to deal with the response, no case study and imperfect non-punitive reporting mechanisms). Conclusion ICU nurses' awareness of near-miss events in critical patients' transfer needs to be improved, and managers at all levels need to pay greater attention to and continuously optimize its management and the practice mode, so as to promote its implementation.

    Objective To investigate the status quo of health promotion behavior in patients with lung cancer after surgery, and analyze its influencing factors to provide reference for formulating targeted intervention measures. Methods By using the convenience sampling method, 207 patients undergoing lung cancer surgery who were admitted to the department of thoracic surgery of the first affiliated hospital of Dalian medical university from February to August 2024 were selected as the research subjects. General information questionnaire, health promoting lifestyle scale, brief illness perception questionnaire, medical coping modes questionnaire and general self-efficacy scale were used to investigate the patients. Results The total score of health promotion behavior of patients after lung cancer surgery was 95.00 (89.00, 102.00) points. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that employment status, family monthly income, disease perception, self-efficacy, facing and submission coping were the influencing factors on the level of health promotion behavior of patients after lung cancer surgery (R2=0.537, adjusted R2=0.506; F=17.253, P<0.001). Conclusion The health promotion behavior of patients after lung cancer resection is at a moderate level. Clinicians should focus on lung cancer patients with negative disease perception, low family monthly income and self-efficacy, and tendency to adopt a submissive response to the disease, and formulate personalized intervention programs to reduce patients' negative perception, encourage patients to adopt positive coping styles, and enhance their sense of self-efficacy. Thus, the level of patients' health promotion behavior can be improved.
