This study was conducted to confirm the relationship between smart device usage time, eye health status, and eye management consciousness during the COVID-19 Pandemic period for college students in the health field. The study participants were 188 health-related university students, and data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, Chi-square test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficients using the SPSS 26.0 program. As a result of the study, the average of the subjects' eye fatigue score was 15.23±13.71, the dry eye subjective symptom score was 21.87±12.02, and the eye health management consciousness score was 3.48±1.09. Eye care awareness, dry eye symptoms (r=.152, p=.005) and eye fatigue, dry eye symptoms (r=.650, p<.001) were statistically significant positive correlation in the group using smartphones for 2 hours or more per day on average. Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to find a way to prevent eye health due to the use of smart devices by college students, and repeated studies are needed to confirm the factors affecting eye health.

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of an eye care protocol (ECP) on patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: This study utilized a randomized controlled design. Participants were patients who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the ICU (36 in the experimental group and 38 in the control group). The experimental group received an ECP, while the control group received standard eye care, starting the day after admission, for a duration of 10 days. The ECP classifies the degree of eyelid obstruction into three stages based on the degree of exposure to the lower eyelid conjunctiva and cornea. The protocol included cleansing with normal saline gauze, administering eye drops, applying silicone and polyurethane films, and recommending consultation with an ophthalmologist if necessary. The effectiveness of ECP was assessed by analyzing tear volume, hyperemia, chemosis, and eye discharge. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 27.0, employing the Mann-Whitney U-test and generalized estimating equations. Results: On day 5, the experimental group demonstrated a significant increase in tear volume in both eyes compared with the control group. However, no statistically significant differences were observed in the incidence of hyperemia, chemosis, and eye discharge on days 5 and 10 of the intervention. Conclusion: The application of the ECP in this study increased tear volume in ICU patients, thereby reducing discomfort caused by dry eyes. It has the potential to prevent complications such as damage to the surface of the eyeball resulting from decreased tear volume.

Purpose: The patient's perspective in the assessment of quality of care has become increasingly important. The purpose of this paper was to introduce the concept of 'QUality Of care Through patient's Eyes (QUOTE)', to analyze the papers using QUOTE through an integrative review method, and to present the attributes of the QUOTE evaluation. Methods: Data were collected from electronic databases. Inclusion criteria were publication in English from 1997 to 2013, as a peer-reviewed research article, with an empirical study focused on QUOTE. Thirty two papers met the criteria and were analyzed. Results: QUOTE had been applied to various groups of patients such as those with various diseases since 1997 in the Netherlands. Four themes were retrieved from synthetic analysis of the thirty-two papers using QUOTE; 1) acceptance of individuation of the patient and family, 2) evaluation of diverse nurses' competencies, 3) evaluation of quality of nursing environments, and 4) participation of patient in the whole process of evaluation. Conclusion: The strengths of QUOTE are that it attempts to overcome the conceptual and methodological problems associated with evaluation of quality of care. Our results imply that QUOTE evaluation could be an effective strategy to improve care of patients in clinical setting.

Purpose: This study is to explore the antecedent factors of daycare teacher behaviors concerning the eye health of preschool children by applying an extended parallel process model. Methods: Focus group interviews were conducted with ten daycare center teachers on September 4 and 14, 2023. A data analysis was performed according to the content analysis method by clustering the data into the four categories: the two threat factors of severity and susceptibility and the two efficacy factors of self-efficacy and response-efficacy. Results: Daycare center teachers' perception of the severity of eye health problems in preschool children was high in relation to eye trauma, but it was recognized that viewing the electronic devices were of a less severe because symptoms were not noticed in a short period of time. They also showed low susceptibility because they were not sufficiently interested in the eye health hazard behaviors of preschool children. The self-efficacy of daycare center teachers was low because this was a lack of knowledge about symptoms of eye problems. However, they recognized that eye health activities performed in the preschool age could prevent negative eye health outcomes, thus showing a high response efficacy. Conclusion: In the future, it is necessary to increase the sensitivity and engagement of daycare center teachers concerning with the eye health of preschool children and to increase their self-efficacy. It will also be necessary to develop various interventions to improve eye health for preschool children that can be implemented by daycare center teachers.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine dry eye syndrome and ocular fatigue according to the status of contact lens wearing and management among female university students. Methods: The subjects were 195 female university students wearing contact lenses. Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) and Virtual Reality Symptom Questionnaire (VRSQ) were used to determine the level of dry eye syndrome and ocular fatigue. The SPSS/WIN 21.0 program was used for analysis of data. Results: Significant differences in the level of dry eye syndrome were observed according to the period of case solution change (F=3.36, p=.037) and the reasons for the change of lens (F=4.56, p=.004). In ocular fatigue, significant differences were observed according to the price of lens (F=3.53, p=.031), rinse in storing lens in a case (t=-2.57, p=.011), and learning about contact lens (t=-2.01, p=.046). A significant positive correlation was observed between dry eye syndrome and ocular fatigue in the subjects. Conclusion: The results of this study show that some subjects have problems in wearing and management of contact lenses. Therefore, an education program related to contact lenses should be provided to contact lens wearers to improve the status of wearing and management of contact lenses.

The purpose of this study is to deeply understand the college life experiences of older nursing students. We interviewed 7 older nursing students, and analyzed the data through Colaizzi's method which is one of the phenomenological research methods. There were 108 meaningful statements derived from the original data. It was composed of 20 themes, confirming the relationship with the original data. The 8 theme clusters and the five categories were organized. The five categories are: 'hardship of study', 'a solitary drifting ship', 'confront prejudice', 'weapons for only me', and 'a flower of hope'. As results of this study, it can be suggested that the development of an adaptive program for older nursing students.

The purpose of this study was to identify the categories and frequencies of communication of students in nursing simulation using standard patient. Data were collected through questionnaires and video recording of communication process of 41 nursing students in simulation related to pediatric enteritis from March to June, 2017. The data were analyzed the contents and frequencies of completed communication forms by trained researcher based on Interaction Process Analysis. In result, students used communication skills in task area frequently. Communication skills, such as orientation, open question, identification, giving information, opinion, and suggestion, and eye contact, were used frequently. In an uncomfortable atmosphere such as listening to the nursing client's complaints, students showed tension and stiff appearance. Students used high quality communication skills such as empathic understanding and therapeutic touch restrictively. In conclusion, we need education strategies relating to therapeutic communication for nursing professionalism and qualitative improvement of nursing service.
