ABSTRACT
Nosocomial infection prevention and control(hereinafter referred to as " hospital infection prevention and control" )knowledge training is an important part of hospital infection prevention and control work, making its training for hospital cleaning personnel a critical and difficult area. The authors applied product thinking concept to design the training model of hospital infection prevention and control knowledge for hospital cleaning staff. In analysis, they identified problems in their training, pinpointed existing problems, and developed training objectives through interview, along with training outlines and training management requirements. Approaches of pictures, texts, videos and on-site demonstrations were called into play in the training, eventually achieving the goal that cleaning staff satisfactorily accepted the training content and form, and effectively mastered and applied the knowledge of hospital infection in their work. It is expected that this training model can provide reference for the training of hospital cleaning staff in the prevention and control of infection in hospital.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of carnosine in the expression of B cell lymphomal/leukemia-2 (bcl-2) and bcl-2-associated X protein (bax) after focal cerebral ischemia in rats. Methods Thirty male SD rats (SPF scale) were ran?domly divided into 3 groups:sham-operated group, model group and carnosine treated group (n=10 for each group). The mid?dle cerebral artery occlusion model (MCAO) was induced in model group and carnosine treated group. Rats were received carnosine [1 000 mg/(kg·d), orally] in carnosine treated group, and the other rats were received the same volume of normal sa?line (NS) in shame-operated group and model group. The neurological deficit score was used to evaluate the neurological function at 24 h and 72 h after MCAO. Morphological changes were observed by HE staining. TCC staining was used to label infarct volume, and immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of bcl-2 and bax. Results Compared with model group, the score of neurological function and infarct volume were significantly declined in carnosine treated group at 72 h after injury (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The changes of ischemic impairment were lighter in carnosine treated group than that of model group. Compared with sham-operated group, the expression levels of bcl-2 and the ratio of bcl-2/bax were de?creased while the expression of bax was increased in model group (P<0.05). Compared with model group, carnosine could sig?nificantly increase the expression of bcl-2 and the ratio of bcl-2/bax, and reduce the expression of bax (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusion Carnosine can enhance bcl-2 expression, decrease bax expression and increase the ratio of bcl-2/bax, which is likely to be one of the mechanisms of neuroprotection.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the prophylactic application of antibiotics in oral and maxillofacial surgery and to provide a scientific basis for its reasonable use .Methods: The use of prophylactic antibiotics in the oral and maxillofacial surgery was conducted in our hospital from January 2011 to August 2013 based on a retrospective survey , and the conditions and affecting factors were analyzed .Results:The utilization rates of prophylactic antibiotics were respectively 98.9%, 61.8%, and 24.6%, showing a downward trend .But the infection rate of surgical site did not significantly increase , and by Fisher ’ s exact test, the difference was not significant (P>0.05).Surgical site infections (SSI) rates did not rise between using and not using prophylactic antibiotics ( P>0 .05 ) .Conclusion: The use of prophylactic antibiotics is greatly influenced by the policy , and along with the decline in antibiotic usage , SSI have not increased significantly .
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of air disinfection methods to improve air quality in dental clinic.METHODS Electrostatic attraction method was used to disinfect air in dental clinic.Air samples here collected before,during and after daily and treatments compared.Bacterial colonies were counted. The air effect of disinfection was compared with undisinfected control group in terms of total number of germs.RESULTS Bacterial count of disinfected group was lower than that of undisinfected group(P
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of three high-level chemical disinfectants for sterilization on cauterization of dental instruments.METHODS The measuring methods for disinfectants on cauterization of metal instruments,and usage indications for disinfectants followed Technical Standard for Disinfection published in 2002 by the Ministry of Health.Fourteen kinds of small instruments(grouped by 4 different metal materials) were analyzed on receipt and after sterilization by three high-level disinfectants(2% glutaraldehyde,chlorine dioxide, and symclosene),using cauterization rate.RESULTS Three high-level disinfectants had different cauterization rates,the cauterization rate was affected by concentration of disinfectant,sterilizing time,and morphology of instruments.The cauterization of chlorine dioxide was the strongest,followed by symclosene(trichloroisocyanuric acid),and then 2% glutaraldehyde.CONCLUSIONS In clinical sterilization,different materials of small instruments need proper disinfectants,concentration and sterilizing time for decreasing their cauterization.
