ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Kinesio taping on salivation after stroke. MethodsFrom October, 2019 to January, 2021, 40 patients with salivation after stroke were randomly divided into control group (n = 20) and experimental group (n = 20). Both groups received routine medicine, routine rehabilitation for dysphagia and rehabilitation nursing, while the experimental group received Kinesio taping in addition, for three weeks. They were assessed with Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS), Water Swallow Test (WST) and Teacher Drooling Scale (TDS) before and after treatment. ResultsOne case dropped in the experimental group. The scores of FOIS, TDS and WST improved in both groups after treatment (|Z| > 2.000, P < 0.05), and improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (|Z| > 3.045, P < 0.01). ConclusionKinesio taping may relieve the salivation of patients with dysphagia after stroke.
ABSTRACT
Objective To perform APACHEⅡand SOFA in assessmentof EICU patients with sepsis ,and analyze the risk factors. Methods A retrospective analysis from January 2014 to October 2015 in EICU of our hos-pital ,a total of 83 patients suffered from sepsis ,including sepsis group(30 cases)and septic shock(53 cases). PCT,PT,APTT,lactic acid,mechanical ventilation time and APACHE Ⅱ and SOFA score were collected, through the receiver-operating characteristic curve(ROC)index to predict the prognosis of patients with sepsis.Re-sults The mortality of the patients in the septic shock group,PT,APTT,APACHEⅡ,SOFA score,mechanical ventilation time and PCT were significantly higher than thosein the sepsis group(P<0.001). APTT,APACHEⅡ, SOFA score and mechanical ventilation time had significant difference (P ≤ 0.001) between survival and dead. The lactic acid level of the dead group was significantly higher than that in the survival group(P=0.038). The ar-ea under curve(AUC=0.806)of APACHEⅡscore was better than the SOFA score(AUC=0.765).The outcome of sepsis had correlation with APACHEⅡ,SOFA score,lactic acid,and mechanical ventilation time(P<0.05). Conclusion APACHE II and SOFA scores can accurately predict mortalityoutcome in emergency intensive care units patients with sepsis,especially the APACHEⅡscore.We can measure blood coagulation function,APACHEⅡ,SOFA score,PCT,lactic acid and mechanical ventilation time to assess the severity of patients with sepsis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the anxious behavior in acute parkinson's mice that were induced by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) injection.Methods Twenty mice were randomly divided into the control group (n =10) and model group(n =10);The model group was induced by injecting MPTP dosage,and the control group was induced by the same dose of saline.The anxious behaviors in mice were tested by the elevated plus-maze test and the light/dark box.Results The model group mice spent a longer time than the control group in the dark box (P ＜ 0.05).The open arm entry (OE),open arm time (OT) and OE％ of model group was significantly less than that in control group in the elevated plus-maze test (P ＜ 0.01),the OT％ was significantly less than control group (P ＜0.05).Conclusions Anxiety symptoms appeared in the model group of early parkinson disease (PD)mice.
