ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of different intestinal cleaning methods on bowel preparation for laparoscopic peritoneal vaginoplasty.Methods One hundred patients undergoing laparoscopic peritoneal vaginoplasty were divided into experiment group and control group with 50 cases in each group .For bowel preparation,the experiment group was managed with oral sodium phosphate salt solution of 45 mL and the control group with oral senna leaf of 30 g in boiled water.The two groups were compared in terms of intestinal cleaning degree,adverse reactions and postoperative exhaust time.Results The incidence of adverse reactions in the former group was significantly lower than the control group.Degree of bowel cleaning satisfaction was significantly better than that of the control group and the postoperative exhaust was significantly earlier than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The method of oral sodium phosphate salt solution for bowel preparation for laparoscopic peritoneal vaginoplasty can improves the intestinal cleanliness,reduce incidence of intestinal adverse reaction and promote postoperative exhaust so that it can improve postoperative intestinal restoration of kinetic energy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze and consider the design for nursing English course through the investigation of demands for nursing English in 6 domestic high-end medical institutions.Methods Firstly,a face-to-face discussion was held with 10 experts in nursing management from above-mentioned institutions,field notes were made and themes were refined afterwards.Then,111 nurses were investigated in the 6 hospitals using purposive sampling method by filling questionnaire.Results In the teaching content,77 kinds of diseases were involved,including 27 most common ones; on the aspect of teaching methods and skills,90.1％ of the nurses recommended situational dialogue,72.1％ in favor of case teaching,92.8％ believed that nursing English course should cultivate students' communication skills; Its teaching emphasis in turn included vocabulary,communication capability,nursing knowledge (89.2％,88.3％,73.0％).Conclusions The objective of nursing English course should focus on cultivating nurse students' applied capability including listening,reading,speaking and written English.The textbook of nursing English should be written based on the characteristics of common diseases in the hospital stressing on nursing knowledge,vocabulary and communication skills.Teaching method of nursing English should consider the situational teaching model in hospital nursing English.
ABSTRACT
Objective To accurately extract pulmonary vessels on medical images. Methods An efficient vessel segmentation framework is presented, which includes a smoothing method and a extraction algorithm. The smoothing method is based on an improved coherence diffusion approach that integrates the second-order directional differential information. It can analyze weak edges such as narrow peak or ridge-like structures. Meanwhile, an improved extraction algorithm is proposed. It is based on a fast marching algorithm where a sorted sequence array and multi-initialization technique are applied. Results The improved coherence diffusion approach can precisely preserve important oriented patterns and remove noises on the images. Experimental results on several images show that the proposed method can effectively find the location of pulmonary vessels. Conclusion The segmentation method is accurate and fast that can be a useful tool for medical imaging applications.
