ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the impact of enhancing perioperative care on the clinical efficacy of the patients with intravascular intervention for treatment of patients with acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LEDVT) complicated with pulmonary embolism (PE). Methods Twenty-nine patients with LEDVT complicated with PE admitted to the Tianjin First Center Hospital from May 2015 to February 2019 were enrolled, the pulmonary angiography + pulmonary thrombolysis was applied for all the patients, and 25 cases used inferior vena cava filter implantation, 1 patient underwent catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT), 4 patients underwent mechanical endovascular aspiration of thromboembolism (PTM), etc intravascular interventional treatment, the peri-operative care was strengthened, including closely observation on the patient's condition, correct use of anticoagulant and thrombolytic drugs, in the mean time, after operation, the nursing care and observation on thrombolysis catheters, involved limbs, complications should be well performed, and health education and discharge guidance ought to be carried out. Before the patient was discharged from the hospital, the improvement of clinical symptoms and the changes of coagulation indexes D-dimer, fibrinogen (Fib), prothrombin time (PT), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were observed; the Bartel index evaluation quantitative scale was used to assess the patient's activity of daily living (ADL) score; WeChat was used to investigate patient's satisfaction. Results In this group of 29 patients, postoperative chest tightness, shortness of breath symptoms were improved significantly, no fatal PE etc complications occurred. The pulmonary artery computed tomographic angiography (CTA) showed that the pulmonary artery and its branches PE basically disappeared or the measured range or area was obviously decreased. Re-examination of blood gas analysis showed that the arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) was increased. Echocardiography revealed the improvement in pulmonary hypertension. 12 patients with pulmonary infection were improved after anti-inflammatory treatment, the swelling of the affected limb was significantly relieved, and the patients had no distending pain after activities on the ground. After treatment, the coagulation indexes D-dimer and fibrinogen (Fib) were significantly lower than those before treatment [D-dimer (μg/L):2 389.45±2 061.02 vs. 6 093.45±2 586.99, Fib (g/L): 3.18±0.91 vs. 4.07±1.49, both P < 0.01], there were no significant differences in PT and APTT before and after treatment [PT (s): 13.12±2.27 vs. 12.33±2.06, APTT (s):34.51±11.79 vs. 31.84±3.05, both P > 0.05]. After treatment, the ADL score of patients was obviously higher than that before treatment (scores: 79.66±6.26 vs. 17.24±8.30, P < 0.01). WeChat was used to investigate the patients' satisfaction, the nursing score was 95-100 points with an average of (97.38±1.37) points. Conclusion High quality nursing care can minimize the suffering to the largest extent in the patients with pulmonary thrombosis, elevate the quality of life, and reduce the disability and recurrence rates.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the influence of perioperative nursing for interventional open operation of patients with symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion under the guidance of the Joint Commission International(JCI) concept. Methods The clinical data of 90 patients with symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion treated by elective interventional open operation from January 2016 to February 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, of which 40 patients receiving routine nursing from January 2016 to January 2017 were set as control group, of which 50 patients receiving nursing guided by JCI concept from February 2017 to February 2018 were set as observation group. The Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) was used to evaluate the anxiety of patients at preoperative 1 h and postoperative 48 h, and the extubation time and hospitalization time were compared, as well as the incidence of complications and the patient's coordination degree. Results The HAMD scores of preoperative 1 h and postoperative 48 h of the observation group respectively was (26.58 ± 5.79) and (17.41 ± 4.18) points, of which the control group respectively was (29.75 ± 5.21) points and (22.26 ± 4.64) points, and the HAMD scores between the postoperative 48 h and preoperative 1 h in the 2 groups were statistically significant differences (t=9.080, 6.790, all P < 0.01), of which between the 2 groups were statistically significant differences (t=2.697, 5.208, all P < 0.01). The extubation time and hospitalization time of the observation group respectively was (3.81 ± 0.62) and (12.97 ± 3.65) d, of which the control group respectively was (4.39 ± 0.71) and (16.18±3.54) d, with statistically significant differences (t=4.134, 4.201, all P<0.01). The total incidence rate of complications of the observation group was 18.00％(9/50), of which the control group was 40.00％(16/40), with statistically significant differences (χ2=5.361, P<0.05). The good rate of coordination of the observation group was 76.00％(38/50), of which the control group was 55.00％(22/40), with statistically significant differences (χ2=4.410, P < 0.05). Conclusions The perioperative nursing based on the JCI concept guidance can relieve the anxiety of patients with symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion treated by elective interventional open operation, shorten the postoperative recovery time, reduce the incidence of complications and improve the nursing coordination.
ABSTRACT
Objective To reproduce a stable animal model of brain death in pigs, observe the change regularity of cerebral oxygen metabolism during the process of brain death, and to evaluate the significance and value of cerebral oxygen metabolism parameters for the diagnosis of brain death. Methods Twelve landrace pigs were used to create the brain death models using modified method of increasing epidural intracranial pressure (ICP). The mean arterial pressure (MAP) and ICP were monitored continuously during the process. The pigs were divided into four groups according to cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) decreasing degree during brain death, namely CPP normal group and CPP decreasing 0%-30%, 30%-70%, and 70%-100% groups. Blood gas analysis of the external carotid artery and internal jugular vein were monitored discontinuously. The changes in cerebral oxygen metabolism parameters, including external carotid artery-internal jugular vein bulb oxygen content difference (AJDO2), internal jugular bulb-external carotid artery carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (DPCO2) and DPCO2/AJDO2 ratio, were observed. Results Brain death model were successfully reproduced in 12 experimental pigs. With MAP and ICP monitoring, the models at different stages of CPP could be repeatedly induced. The levels of AJDO2 and DPCO2 were increased gradually and then decreased, while the ratio of DPCO2/AJDO2 was constantly increased with the decrease of CPP. The level of AJDO2 in CPP decreasing 0%-30%group was significantly higher than that in CPP normal group [(5.86±1.21)% vs. (3.92±0.64)%], the levels of DPCO2 in CPP decreasing 0%-30% and CPP decreasing 30%-70% groups were significantly higher than those in CPP normal group [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 10.33±1.83, 11.48±2.32 vs. 6.11±1.43], and the ratios of DPCO2/AJDO2 in CPP decreasing 30%-70% and CPP decreasing 70%-100% groups were significantly higher than those in CPP normal group and CPP decreasing 0%-30% group (2.81±0.53, 4.12±1.07 vs. 1.57±0.64, 1.62±0.81). All the differences above were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions With the decrease of CPP, cerebral oxygen metabolism showed a regular change during brain death. DPCO2 combined with DPCO2/AJDO2 is a reliable blood gas analysis index indicating intracranial hypoperfusion, which has certain reference value for the determination of brain death.
ABSTRACT
The disease of critically ill patients was with rapid changes, and at any time faced the risk of emergency. The current commonly used rescue vehicles were larger and bulky implementation, which were not conducive to the operation, therefore the design of a portable rescue vehicle was needed. This new type of rescue vehicle is multi-layer folding structure, with small footprint, large storage space, so a variety of first aid things can be classified and put, easy to be cleaned and disinfected. In the rescue process, the portable rescue vehicles can be placed in the required position; box of various emergency items can be found at a glance with easy access; the height of the infusion stand can adjust freely according to the user height; the rescue vehicle handle can be easy to pull and adjust accord with human body mechanics principle. The portable rescue vehicle facilitates the operation of medical staff, and is worthy of clinical application.
