ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the application effect of objective structured clinical examination (OSCE)-based situational simulation case teaching on Nursing Fundamentals practical training. Methods:Using convenient sampling method, two undergraduate nursing classes of Batch 2018 in Hubei University of Chinese Medicine were chosen as the study objects. They were divided into observation group with 45 students and control group with 43 students through ball touching method. The control group used traditional teaching method, on this basis, the observation group used OSCE-based situational simulation case teaching. At the end of the semester, the results of theoretical assessment, operational skills assessment, humanistic care, health education achievements of the two groups of nursing students and students’ evaluation of the new teaching method in the observation group. SPSS 22.0 was used for t test. Results:The sores of theoretical assessment, operational skills and humanistic care assessment in the observation group were (81.01±8.53), (92.69±3.87) and (11.73±1.59), and the corresponding sores in control group were (76.94±9.74), (91.21±2.70) and (10.79±1.36). The nursing students in the observation group had significantly higher scores than the control group in above mentioned aspects ( P<0.05). In the observation group, 45 students (100.0%) believed that this teaching method could stimulate learning interest and comprehensively deal with clinical problems, 43 students (95.6%) thought that this teaching method could improve team cooperation ability, only one person (2.2%) did not agree that this teaching method could help to form critical thinking, and 42 students (93.3%) said that the teaching hours of this teaching method could be appropriately increased. Conclusion:The OSCE-based situational simulation case teaching may effectively improve the teaching quality of the nursing students and mobilize their learning activities.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of Budesonide (BUD) on pulmonary vascular development and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and nucleotide binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) in newborn rats with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) caused by intrauterine infection.Methods:The 15-day-pregnant SD rats were divided into control group and infection group [intraperitoneal injection of 0.35 mg/(kg·d) lipopolysaccharide], and the newborn rats born by the above groups were divided into 3 groups: BUD group (0.5 mg of BUD suspension), normal control group (NC group, equal amount of 9 g/L saline), BPD group (equal amount of 9 g/L saline), with 40 rats in each group, all of them were inhaled twice a day for 14 days.Ten newborn rats were selected at birth, on the 3 rd, 7 th and 14 th day after administration.Pulmonary histopathological changes and radial alveolar counts (RAC) were observed after HE staining, and the thickness of alveolar respiratory membrane was measured; the platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM-1/CD 31) in lung tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the density of pulmonary microvessels was calculated; the expressions of VEGF, NLRP3 and Caspase-1 were detected by Western blot; and the levels of serum interleukin( IL)-1β and IL-18 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:With the increase of day-old, the lung tissue of newborn rats in NC group was gradually developed and matured, the structure of alveoli was clear, the size was uniform, the count was significantly increased, and no obvious pathological changes were observed.In BPD group, the lung tissue structure was disordered, the alveoli were different in size and few in count, and inflammatory cells were exuded from the alveoli or the alveoli space.Compared with BPD group, the pathological changes of lung tissue in BUD group were significantly reduced.On the 3 rd, 7 th and 14 th day after administration, compared with NC group, the RAC, average integral optical density of CD 31 positive cells, density of pulmonary microvessel and level of VEGF protein in lung tissue of BPD group and BUD group were lower, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05); while the thickness of respiratory membrane, level of NLRP3, Caspase-1 proteins in lung tissue and serum levels of IL-1β, IL-18 were significantly higher, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Compared with BPD group, the RAC, average integral optical density of CD 31 positive cells, density of pulmonary microvessel and level of VEGF protein in lung tissue of BPD group and BUD group were significantly higher, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05); while the thickness of respiratory membrane, level of NLRP3, Caspase-1 proteins in lung tissue and serum levels of IL-1β, IL-18 were significantly lower, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The occurrence and development of pathological changes of BPD newborn rats caused by intrauterine infection can affect the development of pulmonary vessels through the inflammatory response of lung tissue.BUD can alleviate pathological changes in lung tissues of BPD newborn rats by reducing inflammatory reaction and up-regulating VEGF expression, promoting pulmonary vascular remodeling, and increasing pulmonary microvascular density.

ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture plus auricular point electroacupuncture and its effect on the quality of life (QOL).Method Ninety-eight patients with post-stroke depression were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 49 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture plus auricular point electroacupuncture, while the control group was by oral administration of Fluoxetine hydrochloride. The Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Side-effect Rating Scale (SERS), and the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire-Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF) were observed before and after intervention, and the clinical efficacies were also compared.Result The total effective rate was 89.1% in the treatment group versus 87.0% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05). Respectively after 2-week, 4-week, and 8-week treatment, the HAMD scores were significantly different from that before intervention in the treatment group (P0.05). The SERS scores in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group after 4-week and 8-week treatment (P<0.05). In the treatment group, the SERS score after 8-week treatment was significantly different from that after 4-week treatment (P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of general health domain 1 and 4, physical health domain, psychological health domain, and environment domain from WHOQOL-BREF were significantly changed in both groups (P<0.05). After intervention, the physical health domain score of the treatment group was significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture plus auricular point electroacupuncture is an effective approach in treating post-stroke depression, and it can improve the quality of life of the patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of applying emergency care simulator (ECS)on cardiopulmonary resuscitation skill training. Methods Clinical doctors and nurses(n=1 472)received the skill training of unarmed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR),electric defibrillation and tracheal intubation by using simple CPR simulator (n=667)or ECS (n=805)respectively. After training,the examination was carried out and questionnaires were handed out. The completion time of operations, the scores and pass rates of examinations,the evaluations of training methods were compared between the two groups. The statistical data were analyzed by t(t')-test or Chi-square test with SPSS 19.0 and P <0.05 was considered as the criterion of significance.
