Effect analysis and establishment of green nursing channel for emergency patients with severe acute traumatic shock / 中国中西医结合急救杂志

Objective To explore the effect of establishment of green nursing channel for emergency patients with severe acute traumatic shock on quality of nursing care. Methods Fifth-six patients with severe acute traumatic shock who received nursing by green nursing channel admitted to Department of Adult Emergency of Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (Yuying Children's Hospital) from October 2016 to November 2017 were assigned in the research group, and at the same time, 42 patients with the same disease adopted conventional nursing mode from March 2015 to September 2016 were in the control group. The emergency treatment time, special inspection time, emergency to the operating room time, admission to operation time of patients, the incidences of the asphyxia and multiple organ dysfunction syndromes (MODS), and success rate of rescue in the two groups were recorded; the degree of patients satisfaction were observed. Results The emergency room treatment time (minutes: 13.51±3.62 vs. 20.84±3.96), special inspection time (minutes: 16.30±4.05 vs. 23.71±4.16) and admission to operation time (minutes:42.61±7.98 vs. 57.83±7.46) in the study group were significantly shorter (all P ＜ 0.05), the incidences of asphyxia and MODS in the study group were obviously lower than those in the control group [asphyxia: 1.79% (1/56) vs. 11.90% (5/42), MODS: 3.57% (2/56) vs. 16.67% (7/42), both P ＜ 0.05], and the success rate of rescue in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [100.00% (56/56) vs. 92.86% (39/42), P ＜ 0.05]; the degree of patients satisfaction in the study group was obviously higher than that in the control group [96.43% (54/56) vs. 83.3% (35/42)], and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion The establishment of a green nursing channel for emergency patients with severe acute traumatic shock is helpful to improve the emergency working efficiency, shorten the time for nursing emergency response, and its application effect is good.

Comparison of therapeutic efficacy of different chemotherapeutic regimens on combined small cell lung cancer / 中国肿瘤临床

Objective:To compare the therapeutic and adverse effects of chemotherapeutic regimen based on three drugs (taxol+carboplatin/cisplatin+etoposide) and two drugs (carboplatin/cisplatin+etoposide) on the combined small cell lung cancer (CSCLC). Methods:A retrospective study was conducted based on the data of 62 CSCLC patients who were admitted to and treated at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital between July 2000 and April 2013. Of the 62 patients, 19 received the three-drug regi-men and 43 received the two-drug regimen. All patients received at least two cycles of chemotherapy and completed follow-up proce-dures. For each patient, the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated every two cycles, and toxicity was evaluated every cycle. Results:The response rates between the three-drug and two-drug groups were statistically significant (90%vs. 53%, P=0.033). However, no statisti-cal differences were observed in the disease control rate between the two groups (100% vs. 86%, P=0.212). The three-drug regimen could induce a better median progression-free survival compared with the two-drug regimen, but with no statistical significance (10.5%vs. 9.8%, P=0.484). Similarly, no statistical differences were noted in the median overall survival between the three-drug and two-drug groups (24.0%vs. 17.5%, P=0.457). The incidence rates of grade IV bone marrow depression and the termination of the original regi-men owing to severe adverse reactions were both significantly higher in the three-drug group than in the two-drug group (26.3% vs. 7.0%, P=0.036;31.6%vs. 14.7%, P=0.004). Conclusion:The two-drug regimen had almost the same survival rate and lower toxicity compared with the three-drug regimen. When using the TEP/TCE regimen, a close attention should be focused on its adverse reactions. The findings of this work showed that the two-agent regimen should be one of the standard treatments for CSCLC.

Analysis of correlation factors for occurrence and progression-free survival of cavitating lung cancer in 947 cases / 中华肿瘤杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>This study was designed to investigate the correlation factors for occurrence and progression-free survival of patients with cavitating lung cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We collected the clinical data of 947 lung cancer patients. Tumor cavitation was observed in 51 patients at baseline and in 23 patients after treatment, while was not discovered in other 873 patients. Multifactor logistic regression was performed to analyze the correlation factors for occurrence. The independent predictors of PFS were analyzed with Cox proportional regression. Survival curves were constructed with the Kaplan-Meier product limit method and compared using the log-rank test.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In the 947 cases, the proportion of cases with baseline cavitation was 5.4% and the incidence of cavitation after treatment was 2.6%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the occurrence of baseline cavitation is related to age, history of diabetes, history of drinking, pathologic types, tumor location, tumor diameter and distant metastasis (P < 0.05). Multifactor logistic regression analysis revealed that the occurrence of post-therapeutic cavitation is related to sex, pathologic types and tumor diameter (P < 0.05).The median PFS of patients with baseline cavitation (7.3 months) was significantly longer than the cases without it (5.2 months) (P = 0.002). While there was no significant difference between the median PFS of patients with post-therapeutic cavitation and patients without it (5.1 months vs. 5.3 months, P = 0.060). Cox proportional regression analysis revealed that cyfra21-1 is related to PFS of patients with baseline cavitaion (P < 0.05) and smoking history is related to PFS of patients with post-therapeutic cavitaion (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Patients with baseline and post-therapeutic cavitation present different clinical features and progression-free survivals. The PFS of patients with baseline cavitation is longer than that of the cases without it. On the contrary, PFS of patients with post-therapeutic cavitation is shorter than the patients without it.</p>

Value of Tei index measured by Dual Doppler modality in cardiac function estimation in patients with hypertension / 生物医学工程学杂志

Tei-Index is a useful echocardiographic parameter for evaluating global cardiac function. Conventionally, a value and b value, which the calculation of Tei index is based on, are measured in different cardiac cycle. Therefore, accuracy of Tei index is damaged by cycle dependent variation, especially in patients with arrhythmia. The newly established Dual Doppler modality allows a synchronous measurement of both a value and b value. This study was aimed to explore the value of Tei index measured by Dual Doppler in cardiac function estimation in patients with hypertension. One hundred and forty patients with hypertension were recuited and divided into three groups according to cardiac function. The a value and b value were generated from the transmitral and transaortic flow spectrum of the same cardiac cyle by Dual Doppler modality. The results showed that Tei index was significantly higher in the cardiac dysfunction group than in the control group. There was a high correlation between Tei index and NYHA cardiac performance. Tei index measured by Dual Doppler modality is a highly reproducible parameter with high sensitivity and specificity for cardiac function estimation, even for patients with arrthymia.
