ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of oropharyngeal airway on the fixation of oral trachea cannula in restless patients. Methods Toally 82 restless patents with oral trachea cannulation hospitalized in the two sections of ICU during January 2014 and August 2015 were involved in the study: those in the first section were assigned into the control group and those in the second into the experiment group. The former was treated with ordinary dental pad and the latter with oropharyngeal airway. The groups were compared in terms of effectiveness in fixation of the cannula and damage to oral mucosa. Result The rates of cannula displacement, oral mucosa damage in the experiment group were significantly smaller than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Oropharyngeal airway used in restless patients is effective in the fixation of oral trachea cannula and decrease the rate of oral mucosa damage and improve the comfort degree.
ABSTRACT
Objective To know the influence of short-term hard health education combined with net-working fellow-up on diabetes related costs. Methods Divided 83 diabetes patients into the experimental group (41 cases) and the control group (42 cases) randomly. Short-term hard health education combined with networking fellow-up and traditional health education was used in the two groups respectively, and then evaluat-ed the diabetes related costs between the two groups on the time points of the third, the sixth and the dozenth month. Results The costs of health products in the control group was significant higher than that of in the experimental group from the first month to the third month after the intervention, while the inspection expenses in the experimental group was significant higher than that of in the control group from the fourth month to the sixth month after the intervention. Conclusions Short-term bard health education can not change the average level of diabetes related costs, but it can change the constituent ratio of costs.
ABSTRACT
objective To evaluate the effect of intensive diabetes health education plus web-based follow-up program on metabolic control.Methods One hundred and fifteen patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) were assigned to receive intensive diabetes health education plus web-based follow-up (treatment group,n=57) or conventional education program (control group,n=58).Hemoglobin Alc(HbAlc),body mass index (BMI),lipid profile,and blood pressure were compared at 3 or 6 month with baseline.Results At 3 month.the patients with HbAlc<6.5% in the treatment group was increased from 26.32% to 80.79%.At 6 month.HbAlC was decreased by 2.10% and 1.13% in the treatment or control group.In contrast to the control group,in the treatment group,the patient with BMI<24 increased from 43.86% to 68.42%.Neither groups showed significant changes in blood pressure.Conclusion Intensive diabetes education may be more effective than conventional program in improving metabolic control.
