Ambulatory surgery ward is a fast and effective way of treating, nursing and patients’ education. We report the practice of ambulatory surgery ward in West China Hospital of Sichuan University about patients’ reception, treatment and nursing, medical safety, health education and post-operative follow-up. Results show that ambulatory surgery ward would guarantee patients’ safety, shorten hospitalization days and decrease medical cost, with more than 98% of patients’ satisfaction.
Objective To investigate the efficacy of improved clinical nursing path for day surgery of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods The clinical data of 3 274 patients who underwent day surgery of LC following the clinical pathway between January 2011 and December 2015 were collected. The rate of adverse events including pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), retention of urine and staxis before and after the improvement of clinical nursing path was analyzed and compared. Results For adverse event rate before and after the improvement of clinical nursing path, the difference in the incidence of pain and PONV was statistically significant (P < 0.05), while the difference in retention of urine and staxis was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). Conclusions Through the improvement of clinical nursing path for LC during day time, the procedure of nursing becomes more standardized. It is more feasible for clinical work and postoperative adverse reactio n rate becomes lower. It can also help shorten postoperative rehabilitation time and ensure perioperative medical quality and safety.
The annual incidence of diabetic foot ulcers in China is as high as 8.1%, which ranks first among the causes of chronic wounds in China. Although through the efforts of several generations of podiatrists and the building of multidisciplinary collaboration team, the major amputation rate in patients with diabetic foot ulcers in China has been decreased significantly, it is still far higher than the level of developed countries in Europe and the United States. Therefore, in order to cope with the increasing occurrence and recurrence of refractory diabetic foot ulcers, in addition to further optimizing the construction of multidisciplinary collaboration team, it is an urgent topic for us to explore the construction of a multidisciplinary integrated team to seamlessly connect the diagnosis and treatment of different aspects of foot disease. This article describes the importance and necessity of building a wound repair center with Chinese characteristics, which is a model of multidisciplinary integrated team, aiming at provide a theoretical basis for establishing a multidisciplinary integrated management model and realizing seamless connection between diagnosis and treatment, so as to further improve the cure rate of diabetic foot ulcers.
