Relationship Between Blood Pressure Rhythm and Cognitive Function in Elderly Hypertension Patients / 中国循环杂志

Objective: To study the relationship between blood pressure (BP) rhythm and cognitive function in elder hypertension patients. Methods: Our research included in 2 groups: Hypertension group:n=74 patients≥80 years and Control group, n=36 elder subjects without hypertension. 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was conducted in both groups. According to nocturnal BP reduction rate, Hypertension group was further divided into 4 subgroups as Dipper type BP subgroup, Non-dipper type BP subgroup, Anti-dipper type BP subgroup and Super-dipper type BP subgroup. Cognition function was evaluated by Mini-menta state examination (MMSE) form, MMSE score was compared among different groups and subgroups. Results: By MMSE score, the abilities of orientation, memory, attention, calculation and recall were different between Hypertension group and Control group,P<0.05. By MMSE score, the abilities of orientation and memory were different between Anti-dipper type BP subgroup and Dipper type BP subgroup,P<0.05; the abilities of orientation, memory, attention, calculation and recall were different between Non-dipper type BP subgroup and Dipper type BP subgroup,P<0.05; the memory was different between Super-dipper type BP subgroup and Dipper type BP subgroup,P<0.05. Conclusion: In elderly hypertension patients, compared to those with normal BP rhythm, the abnormal BP rhythm patients had the higher probability to suffer from cognitive dysfunction which was mainly as decreased abilities of orientation, memory, attention, calculation and recall.

Study and Application of Outpatient Infusion Procedure / 医疗卫生装备

Objective To design a new procedure for outpatient safe infusion.Methods Aiming at the errors possibly occur in current management of hospital outpatient infusion process,modern wireless and intelligent recognition technology are applied to research and design a new infusion procedure.Results Based on its program difference from the LAN technology of fixed-point check transfusion management style,this solution truly met the needs of actual medical infusion process and achieve the dynamic information check,exchange and matching between the hospital staffs and patients.Conclusion It ensures the safety of transfusion patients,and creates a harmonious environment for treatment.
