ObjectiveVideo electroencephalography (VEEG) monitoring for health education of elderly patients based on a process-based communication model, and explore the impact of this model on the success rate, negative emotions, nursing satisfaction, and active cooperation rate of such patients.MethodsFrom September 2017 to September 2019, 118 patients with suspected epilepsy, encephalitis and other diseases who required VEEG monitoring in Suining Central Hospital were selected for this study (patients aged 61 to 73 years; 54 males and 64 females). Patients were divided into 2 groups using a random number table method, 59 patients in each group.A group received routine nursing, and B group received health education based on the process communication model. The monitoring success rate, negative emotion, active cooperation rate, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe total effective rate in the B group was 86.44%, which was significantly higher than 76.27% in the A group (P<0.05). After nursing intervention, the scores of anxiety and depression in the two groups were significantly decreased, but the decline was greater in the B group (P<0.05). The active cooperation rate and nursing satisfaction of the B group were significantly higher than those of the A group (P<0.05).ConclusionCompared with conventional nursing, health education based on process communication mode can significantly improve the success rate of VEEG monitoring in elderly patients, alleviate the negative emotions of patients, improve the active cooperation rate and nursing satisfaction.
目的 探讨躯体感觉诱发电位（SEP）在颈脊髓损伤术前、术中监测的意义。 方法 纳入2010年1月－2012年4月治疗的241例颈脊髓损伤患者，术前按美国脊柱脊髓损伤协会（ASIA）评分并分级，确定损伤平面。术前与术中SEP监测，分析不同损伤分级以及不同损伤平面术前的波幅及潜伏期的差异，术中SEP监测以波幅下降＞50%和或潜伏期延长＞10%为预警标准。 结果 各损伤分级组术前SEP监测：A级组SEP波消失，呈一直线，而B、C、D、E级组均测出SEP波形，根据是否可测出SEP波形，可将A级与B、C、D、E及组区别。B、C、D级组之间波幅和潜伏期均无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。E级组较B、C、D级组波幅增高、潜伏期缩短，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）；不完全性颈脊髓损伤组内不同损伤平面组之间波幅和潜伏期差异均无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。术中SEP对脊髓功能损伤监测的灵敏度83.3%、特异度98.7%。其中术中：SEP阳性8例，真阳性5例，4例术者处理后波幅及潜伏期回复至正常范围，术后无新的神经功能损伤，另1例术者采取各种处理后波幅及潜伏期无恢复，术后神经功能损伤较术前加重；假阳性3例，1例麻醉师给予升高血压后波形恢复至正常，另2例经麻醉师调整麻醉深度后波形恢复正常，此3例术后无新的神经功能损伤。SEP阴性233例，真阴性232例，术后无新的神经功能损伤；假阴性1例，患者术中、术后波形未见异常，术后运动功能损伤程度较术前加重。 结论 ① SEP能准确评估完全性和不完性颈脊髓损伤，但对不完全性颈脊髓损伤的损伤程度不能作出准确评估、也不能区分颈脊髓损伤的损伤平面；② 术中SEP监测能较好地反映颈脊髓功能完整性，对减少颈脊髓损伤术中发生医源性颈脊髓损伤风险具有重要意义。
In order to investigate the mechanism of blood supply to the delayed separated skin flap and the time and criteria for its transfer, 5 smallsized Banna pigs were selected to produce 14 skin flaps. In the experimental group the skin flap on one side was made from the middle of the back having an extrathin steel sheet intervened between the flap and the soft tissue of the back whereas the flap on the opposite side without a steel sheet intervened was served as the selfcontrol. The skin flaps were examined 3,7,10 and 20 days after the operation and 3,7 and 10 days after transfer, respectively, by (1) gross observation; (2) ultrasonic Doppler; (3) superficial skin temperature measurement and; (4) histomorphological examination. In the experimentalgroup the survival rate of the flap was 100 percent whereas in the control group all of the flaps had necrosis from 30 to 50 percent after the flap being transfered. In the experimental group, the echo sound from the arterial blood flow from ultrasonic Doppler was heard at the pedicle 7 days after the operation, and as time elapsed, the echo sound spread distally, whereas in the controls no echo sound could be heard over the skin flap. There was significant difference statistically between the experimental and control groups in the temperature of the flaps while the flaps were being transferred (P lt; 0.01). The external diameters of the blood vessels in the central area of the skin flap were larger in the experimental group, 0.8 to l.2mm in comparison to 0.4mm.
ObjectiveTo summarize the experience of applying extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) after cardiac surgery in adult patient. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 27 patients underwent ECMO from December 2011 to October 2013. There were 15 males and 12 females at the mean age of 51±11 years ranging from 41 to 73 years. Vein-artery perfusion was performed in all 27 patients. ResultsAll 27 patients underwent ECMO. The mean time of using ECMO was 81.2±36.4 hours ranging from 48.0-192.0 hours. The mean time of hospital stay was 307.8±97.0 hours ranging from 168.0-480.0 hours. The rate of weaning from ECMO was 77.8% (21/27). The rate of discharge was 51.9% (14/27). The rate of perioperative mortality was 44.4% (12/27). ConclusionEffective monitoring with other supportive equipments is helpful to promote the result of ECMO.
Objective Establishing Nomogram to predict the overall survival (OS) rate of patients with gastric adenocarcinoma by utilizing the database of the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program. Methods Obtained the data of 3 272 gastric adenocarcinoma patients who were diagnosed between 2004 and 2014 from the SEER database. These patients were randomly divided into training (n=2 182) and validation (n=1 090) cohorts. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was performed to evaluate the prognostic effects of multiple clinicopathologic factors on OS. Significant prognostic factors were combined to build Nomogram. The predictive performance of Nomogram was evaluated via internal (training cohort data) and external validation (validation cohort data) by calculating index of concordance (C-index) and plotting calibration curves. Results In the training cohort, the results of Cox proportional hazards regression model showed that, age at diagnosis, race, grade, 6th American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage, histologic type, and surgery were significantly associated with the survival prognosis (P<0.05). These factors were used to establish Nomogram. The Nomograms showed good accuracy in predicting OS rate, with C-index of 0.751 ［95%CI was (0.738, 0.764)］ in internal validation and C-index of 0.753 ［95% CI was (0.734, 0.772)］ in external validation. All calibration curves showed excellent consistency between prediction by Nomogram and actual observation. Conclusion Novel Nomogram for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma was established to predict OS in our study has good prognostic significance, it can provide clinicians with more accurate and practical predictive tools which can quickly and accurately assess the patients’ survival prognosis individually, and can better guiding clinicians in the follow-up treatment of patients.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of target monitoring on the patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in intensive care unit (ICU), analyze the risk factors and take effective measures to reduce the VAP occurrence. MethodsTarget monitoring was performed on patients with ventilator in ICU from January to July 2013 (observation group), and they were compared with those patients accepting general comprehensive monitoring in ICU from January to July 2012 (control group). The incidence of VAP was compared between the two groups. ResultsThe incidence of VAP in the observation group and the control group was 21.73‰ and 53.33‰, respectively. There was a significant difference between the observation group and the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionFor patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, target monitoring can control the risk factors and incidence of VAP, adjust the interference in time, and improve the curing rate.
Medical nitric oxide (NO) flow control system plays an important role in lowering pulmonary hypertension. The design requirements, overall scheme, delivery system and hardware circuits of a medical NO flow control system were introduced in this paper. Particularly, we proposed the design of NO delivery system and hardware circuits in detail. To deliver nitric oxide of a variable concentration, the designed system needs to work with a ventilator. The system can adjust and monitor the inhaled nitric oxide concentrations and send out sound and light alarms when the inhaled nitric oxide concentrations are out of the set range. To validate reliability and efficacy, we measured specifications such as linearity, stability and response time of the proposed NO flow control system by continuously administering nitric oxide into inspiratory circuit to deliver nitric oxide of variable concentrations to a test lung. The experiments showed that these specifications can meet the desired requirements.
The body is at a hypo-coagulation status after the heart mechanic valve prosthesis replacement operation, and the incidence of anticoagulation complications is rather high because of that administration of warfarin may result in “anticoagulation vacuum” at an early stage. Moreover, the necessary application of other anticoagulation methods assisting the employment of warfarin have still not been scientifically normalized. Blood coagulation factor Ⅱ,Ⅶ, prothrombin fragment1+2 (F1+2 ), urine fibrimopeptide A (UFPA) , and International Normalized Ratio(INR), could exactly reflect the anticoagulation intensity 48-72 hours after the replacement operation,reasonable use of anticoagulant therapy as well as accurate and in-time monitoring methods is significant to reduce complications,elevate survival rate, and improve quality of life.
