Objective To evaluate the quality of family resilience assessment tools for cancer patients, so as to provide references for the selection of high-quality research tools. Methods We searched databases including PubMed,the Cochrane Library,Web of Science,Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP to collect all studies about assessment tools that measure cancer patients’ family resilience. Based on the consensus-based standards for the selection of health measurement instruments(COSMIN) guideline,the methodological and measure-ment properties quality of the included assessment tools were evaluated by the COSMIN risk of bias checklist and quality criteria,and the modified grading of recommendations assessment, development of evaluation(GRADE) was used to classify the grade of evidence and recommendations of the tools. Results None of the 10 assessment tools reported criterion validity, measurement error or responsiveness. The GRADE of Family Resilience Assessment(FRA) and Family Resilience Questionnaire(FaREQ) were high. The recommendation level of Family Resilience Assessment Scale(FRAS), FRA and FaREQ were A, and the others were B. Conclusion FRAS and Chinese version of Family Resilience Assessment Scale(C-FRAS) translated by Fan are the most widely used family resilience assessment tools for cancer patients at home and abroad. FRAS, FRA and FaREQ have good methodological quality, measurement properties quality and evidence level, so they are recommended for use in cancer patients.

Objective To summarize the best available evidence of discharge follow-up of patients after knee arthroplasty,and to provide reference for clinical practice. Methods We searched National Guideline Clearinghouse,National Institute for Health and Care Excellence,the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network,Canadian Medical Association Infobase(CMA),Guidelines International Network(GIN),and National Health And Medical Research Council(NHMRC),Registered Nurses’Association of Ontario(RNAO),Cochrane Library,JBI Library,CINAHL,Uptodate,BMJ best practice,Embase,Pubmed,CNKI,Wanfang Data,China Biology Medicine disc(CBM) and the VIP Database(VIP) for all evidence of discharge follow-up of patients who underwent knee arthroplasty,including guidelines,systematic reviews,evidence summary,recommended practices,and original studies. Results A total of 9 articles were selected in the literature,including 1 clinical decision,2 guidelines,3 systematic reviews,1 randomized controlled trial,2 expert consensuses. Finally 17 items of best evidence were summarized and categorized into 5 dimensions of recommendations,including follow-up time and method,physical assessment,drug management,discharge rehabilitation,and health education. Conclusion This study summarized the best evidence of discharge follow-up after knee arthroplasty,and nurses should receive relevant training to apply the best evidence to clinical practice. When applying the best evidence,medical staff should consider the patient’s wishes and specific clinical conditions,and combine professional judgment to form an effective and feasible follow-up strategy to improve the quality of nursing quality.
