ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the clinical effect of percutaneous low frequency electric stimulation on prevention of venous indwelling needle thrombotic blockage in patients with coronary heart disease.@*Methods@#A total of 150 patients admitted to the department of cardiovascular medicine from May 2017 to January 2018 who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected. It was divided into the intervention group and the control group by the random number table method, including 75 cases in the intervention group and 75 cases in the control group. In the control group, the routine nursing method was adopted for the maintenance of intravenous indwelling needle. In the intervention group, on the basis of routine nursing, the percutaneous low frequency electrical stimulation was added. The incidence of thrombosis, occlusion, mean retention time, patient satisfaction and intravenous infusion complications were compared between the two groups.@*Results@#The incidence of thrombosis was 40.0% (30/75) and64.0% (48/75) in the intervention group and the control group, and the blockage rate was 28.0% (21/75) and 52.0% (39/75) in the intervention group and the control group, respectively. There were significant differences between the two groups (χ2=8.654, 9.000, all P< 0.01). The incidence of phlebitis, drug exosmosis and subcutaneous bruising were 13.33% (10/75), 13.33% (10/75) and 18.67% (14/75) in the intervention group, 33.33% (25/75), 40.00% (30/75) and 41.33% (31/75) in the control group, respectively. There were significant differences between the two groups (χ2 = 8.385, 13.636, 9.175, all P< 0.01). The indwelling time and patient satisfaction of the intervention group were (2.817±0.221) d and 82.67% (62/75) respectively, while those of the control group were (2.291±0.127) d and 50.67% (38/75), respectively. There were significant differences between the two groups (t=17.926, χ2=17.280, all P<0.01).@*Conclusions@#Percutaneous low frequency electrical stimulation has positive significance for improving the formation of thrombus at the point of intravenous indwelling needle and preventing the blockage of catheter caused by thrombosis.

ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the immediate effects of posture correction and real-time visual feedback using a video display on muscle activity and change of head position during overhead arm lift test in individuals with forward head posture. METHODS: Fifteen subjects with forward head posture and fifteen normal subjects who volunteered were included in this study. During both groups performed the overhead arm lift test, the muscle activity of the upper trapezius, serratus anterior, sternocleidomastoid, and lower trapezius muscle were measured using electromyography, and head position change was measured using photographs. Then, forward head posture group was asked to perform overhead arm lift test again after posture correction and real-time visual feedback using a video display respectively. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to analyze four conditions: pre-test, posture correction, real-time visual feedback, and the control group. RESULTS: The upper trapezius and lower trapezius muscle activity significantly decreased posture correction, real-time visual feedback, and control group than pre-test of forward head posture group (p<0.05). The sternocleidomastoid muscle significantly decreased real-time visual feedback and control group than pre-test of forward head posture group. Head position change significantly decreased three conditions than pre-test of forward head posture group and real-time visual feedback and control group significantly decreased than posture correction. CONCLUSION: This study recommend for maintaining cervical stability during the overhead arm lift test, postural control using real-time visual feedback is more effective in subjects with forward head posture.

The mental disorders, scar, and dysfunction will affect the work and study of patients with extensive burn, which can further affect the quality of life and the rate of return to society. Under the premise of saving life, the function of patients with extensive burn should be reserved as much as possible for a better living quality. In addition to the specialized treatment, body positioning, therapeutic exercise, orthosis application, and psychotherapy can be used in the early stage of burn rehabilitation. Early rehabilitation training is beneficial to the circulatory system, immune system, functional and psychological recovery of patients. It can also improve the quality of extensive burn treatment, and decrease deformities and the incidence of complications in the late stage.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the preparation procedure of Zhenjing Xiehuo granules. Methods: Using the dry extract yielding rate and the contents of liquiritin and salvianolic acid B as the indices, an orthogonal test was adopted to choose the best ex-traction and purification technology. Using the qualified ratio of granules as the index, an orthogonal test was adopted to choose the best preparation process of the granules. Results:The optimized preparation conditions were as follows:Pulvis ferri was decocted first for 60 min. The other medicines were dipped in 8-fold amount of water for 90 min, and then added into pulvis ferri extracts and decocted for 3 times with 90 min for each time. The extracts were collected and concentrated till the relative density was 1. 3 (measured at 60℃), water was added with the dilution ratio of 1:2, ethanol was added till the percentage of ethanol was 50%, and then the mixed liquid was filtered after 24 hours. After ethanol was recycled from the filtrate, the filtrate was concentrated till the relative density was 1. 3 (measured at 60℃), and then dried at 60℃. Starch as the diluent, the ratio of extract to excipient was 1:0. 8, and the wet granules were prepared with 90% ethanol as the wetting agent, dried 3 hours at 60℃ followed by size stabilization to obtain the products. Con-clusion:The optimized preparation procedure of Zhenjing Xiehuo granules is stable and feasible.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of nursing intervention on adverse reactions and quality of life in patients with gynecological cancer received chemotherapy.Methods 160 cases of gynecological cancer patients from 2010 to 2011 in our hospital were chosen as research object.They were randomly divided into the observation group (the nursing intervention group)and the control group (the nonnursing intervention group)with 80 cases in each group.The adverse reactions and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results The good rate of quality of life for the observation group was 87.5％,higher than that of the control group,and the incidence of adverse reactions was 31.3％,lower than that of the control group,there was significant difference.Conclusions Effective nursing intervention for patients with gynecological cancer chemotherapy can reduce the adverse effects and improve the quality of life for them.It should be widely applied.
