ABSTRACT
Objectives:To investigate the effect of polyester filament fiber surgical drape in neurosurgery.Methods:A total of 181 neurosurgical surgeries were selected from April to July 2019 in a first-class general hospital. They were randomly divided into 2 groups, cotton group (92 cases) were covered with cotton drape, polyester filament fiber group (89 cases) were covered with polyester filament fiber. The anti-permeation performance, incidence of intraoperative hypothermia, and incidence of postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) between the two groups were compared.Results:At the end of the operation, the wetting rate of the cotton draped was 58.7% (54/92) and that in polyester filament fiber was 15.7% (14/89), with statistically significant differences ( χ2 value was 35.605, P<0.05);The incidence of intraoperative hypothermia was 22.8% (21/92) in the cotton group and 11.2% (10/89) in the polyester filament fiber group, with statistically significant differences ( χ2 value was 4.281, P<0.05). The incidence of SSI in the cotton group was 16.3% (15/92) , while that in the polyester filament fiber group was 6.7% (6/89) , with statistically significant differences ( χ2 value was 4.034, P<0.05). Conclusions:In neurosurgical operations with a long operation time and a large amount of irrigation fluid during the operation, using the polyester filament fiber drape can prevent the irrigation fluid from wetting the surgical drape, protect the surgical incision better, reduce the incidence of SSI and intraoperative hypothermia to some extent.
ABSTRACT
The surgical drape system is a sterile barrier to prevent skin bacteria from entering the incision. The surgical drape system is used to maintain the sterile state of the surgical area, which can reduce the risk of SSI. Therefore, it is the basic measure to prevent SSI. This review summarizes the importance, development, current situation and prospect of surgical drape system, in order to provide reference for clinicians.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of soft silicone foam dressing on the prevention of intraoperative pressure ulcer in patients undergoing spine surgery. Methods A total of 232 patients were divided into control group and experimental group (116 cases each group) by coin slot method. The control group was treated with conventional pressure ulcer prevention and treatment. The experimental group was treated with conventional intervention measures. Soft silicone foam dressing paste use, the end of surgery to observe the two groups of patients under the chin skin condition. Results In the control group, there were 10 cases at stage I in the lower part of the skin, and 5 cases (4 cases of skin blisters and 1 case of partial cortical absence) at stageⅡ. 2 cases in the experimental group were at stage I; no cases were at stageⅡ, the two groups were no stage Ⅲ and above pressure ulcer occurred in the experimental group under the chin pressure ulcer was significantly lower than the control group, The difference was statistically significant (χ2=10.727, P<0.05). Conclusion Conventional pressure ulcer prevention and control interventions combined with shaped soft silicone foam dressing for skin protection of special parts of chin under prone position surgery is beneficial to prevention of intraoperative pressure ulcers.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of two different core temperature monitoring methods on cardiopulmonary bypass and coagulation function in open heart surgery to provide a reference for monitoring the core body temperature in open heart surgery. Methods One hundred and forty patients undergoing open heart surgery in this hospital from June to December 2016 were divided into the control group(n= 70) and observation group (n= 70). The control group monitored the temperature of nasopharynx and bladder. The observation group monitored the temperature of rectum and nasopharynx. The temperature falling time of cardiopul monary bypass, time of blocking ascending aorta,time of rewarming, total time of cardiopulmonary bypass were recorded during operation. The coagulation function was monitored on 1 d before surgery and at the end of surgery,including thrombolytic time (TT), prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). Results The temperature falling time,rewarming time, total time of cardiopulmonary bypass in the control group were more than those in the observation group, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01);there was no statistically significant difference in coagulation function indicators(TT,PT,APTT) before operation between the two groups (P> 0.05). At the end of the operation, the coagulation function indicators (TT, PT, APTT) had statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.01). The coagulation function indicators in the observation group were better than those in the control group. Conclusion Using the rectal temperature for monitoring the core tempera ture in the patients undergoing open heart surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass is better than using bladder temperature, which can shorten the time of cardiopulmonary bypass and improves coagulation function.
ABSTRACT
Objective To identify the effect of SBAR (situation, background, assessment, recom-mendation) in OR (operating room)nursing teaching rounds. Methods According to internship turns, rou-tine group (even number, Group A:68 students) and SBAR group (odd number, Group B:70 students) were chosen by drawing lots. Group A used conventional mode for history report, while Group B used SBAR mode. Students' performance was evaluated by OR nurse students' rounds standard scale and the reporting time was recorded. Each nurse students filled in Communication Self-efficacy Evaluation Form on the fifth week in OR. The information was input into excel. The results of the two groups were compared with SPSS 11, and the data were analyzed by chi square test and t test. Results The average reporting quality score was 16.74 for Group A, and 18.66 for Group B. The average score of Group B was higher than that of Group A. Compared with the cases scores above 18 between the two groups, the result was statistically significant, P=0.039. The average score of communication Self-efficacy in Group A was 42.88, while it was 44.94 in Group B, which showed that Group B had better score than that of Group A. Significant differences was found between the two groups when compared the cases with score above 45, P=0.010. The average reporting time was (2.42±1.16) minutes for Group A and (2.32±1.21) for Group B, and there is no significant differences between the 2 groups. Conclusion SBAR is helpful for improving students communication Self-efficacy, and making progress on nursing round reporting quality,and it is worth promoting in clinical teaching.

ABSTRACT
<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>To study the CT appearance of lung cancer combined with pleural dissemination and its anatomic characteristics.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>CT findings of 32 cases of lung cancer with pleural dissemination proved by surgery and pathology were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The main CT manifestations were pleural effusion (24 cases), visceral pleural dissemination with nodules (10 cases), parietal pleural dissemination with nodules (16 cases), and pleural thickening (31 cases). Out of the cases with visceral pleural disseminations, nodules distributed on the lung surface in 9 sites, while on the interlobular pleura in 10 sites. Parietal pleural dissemination with nodules were found in 45 sites which located on the diaphragmatic pleura, the costal pleura, the mediastinal pleura, and the pulmonary ligament. The diameters of the small nodules ranged from 2 to 5 mm, and the large nodules from 5 to 10 mm. There were direct invasion with tumor induced pleural thickening in 10 cases, while indirect invasion in 21 cases. In the later cases, 9 cases had parietal pleural thickening less than 10 mm, 4 circumferential pleural thickening, 5 mediastinal pleural involvement thickening, and 3 pulmonary ligament thickening.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Pleural effusion is the main manifestation of lung cancer combined with pleural dissemination. The CT features of lung cancer with pleural dissemination are the parietal and visceral pleural nodules, as well as the pleural thickening. The nodules are likely to distribute on parietal pleura of the diaphragmatic and the costal pleura, and they may transfer to the pulmonary ligament.The early small disseminating nodules are miliary in size, and only can be detected on the pulmonary window of chest CT scan.</p>
