ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the feasibility and characteristics of ultrasound imaging in diagnosing fractures in neonates.Methods:Thirty neonates with bone fracture in Beijing Chaoyang District Maternal and Child Healthcare Hospital during January 2018 to June 2019 were retrospectively recruited. The causes and ultrasound imaging features of these cases were analyzed. The ultrasound findings were compared with the results of X-ray examination.Results:Among the 30 cases, 29 (96.7%) were diagnosed as fracture due to birth trauma, including 28 (93.3%) of clavicle fracture and one (3.3%) of humerus fracture, and one (3.3%) with rib fracture probably caused by metabolic osteopathy. The ultrasound imaging characteristics included interruption of bone continuity, dislocation and/or angulation of fracture ends, and callus formation during recovery. All of the 30 cases were diagnosed by ultrasound. However, X-ray examination failed in the diagnosis of one clavicle fracture.Conclusions:Ultrasound is an accurate and reliable method for the diagnosis of neonatal fracture. The main characteristics of ultrasound imaging include interruption of bone continuity, dislocation and/or angulation of fracture ends and callus formation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the influence of Rosenthal effect on the psychological status of pregnant women at risk of miscarriage in early pregnancy. Methods From January 2014 to June 2015 151 cases of early pregnancy abortion risk women were set as the control group, and was given conventional psychological intervention.From July 2015 to December 2016 135 cases of early pregnancy abortion risk women were named as the observation group by convenient sampling selection, which was given interventionbased on Rosenthal effect on the basis of routine psychological intervention. The Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) score, the introversion and extroversion scores and the satisfaction degree with intervention were compared between the two groups before and after the intervention. Results There was no significant difference in SDS and SAS scores, inotropic challenge and extroversion challenge between the two groups before treatment (P >0.05). The scores of SDS and SAS, the inotropic challenge and extroversion challenge scores were 41.45 ± 4.26, 40.34 ± 5.82,4.76 ± 1.03,5.55 ± 1.26 in the observation group after intervention,and 47.22 ± 3.93,47.18 ± 7.04,5.39 ± 1.12, 6.43 ± 1.86 respectively in the control group. There were significant difference in scores of SDS and SAS, the inotropic challenge and extroversion challenge (t=2.215-2.573, P <0.05). The satisfaction rates of the observation group and the control group were 93.32%(126/135)and 74.17% (112/151) respectively, the difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.921, P<0.05). Conclusions The intervention based on Rosenthal effect on the basis of conventional psychological intervention for early pregnancy abortion risk women can relieve negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, besides it can also improve satisfaction degree of inpatients with intervention.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the risk factors for healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in senile dementia pa-tients,so as to adopt effective nursing measures to reduce the incidence of HAI.Methods Clinical data of 82 senile dementia patients aged≥60 years and hospitalized between January 2011 and June 2013 were analyzed retrospective-ly.Results Of 82 patients,28 (34.15%)developed HAI.The main infection site was lower respiratory tract(n=15,53.57%),followed by urinary tract(n=6,21 .43%).Univariate analysis revealed that risk factors for HAI in senile dementia patients were bedridden,long length of hospital stay ,dysphagia,indwelling urinary catheter,irra-tional use of antimicrobial agents,combined with tumor,and hypoproteinemia (all P <0.05 ).The main isolated bacteria were gram-negative bacilli(n=40,62.50%),the top three pathogens were Klebsiella pneumoniae (n=12, 18.75%),Escherichia coli (n =10,15.63%),and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n =8,12.50%).Conclusion Reali-zing the risk factors and common pathogens of HAI in senile dementia patients is helpful for taking effective meas-ures to prevent and control the incidence of HAI .
ABSTRACT
Objective To study direct economic loss of healthcare-associated infection (HAI)in hospitalized children with acute respiratory infection (ARI),and the influence in satisfaction degree of children’relatives.Methods Clinical data of 1 039 children with ARI in a pediatrics ward between April 1,2012 to March 31,2013 were analyzed retrospective-ly.50 patients with HAI were in case group and 50 patients without HAI were in control group.The difference in medical cost and the degree of satisfaction of children’s relatives were compared between two groups.Results Medical cost of pa-tients in case group was significantly higher than control group([P 25 - P 75 :￥3 095.54 - ￥4 779.48]vs [P 25 -P 75 :￥1 744.14-￥2 382.07],Z =5.89,P <0.01).The expenses in medicine,laboratory examination,diagnosis and treatment,and nursing in case group were all higher than control group,there were significant differences between two groups(all P <0.01 );Hospitalization day of case group was significantly longer than control group ([P 25 -P 75 :9 d-15 d]vs[P 25 -P 75 :6 d-8 d],Z =5.79,P <0.01 ).Satisfaction degree of patients’relatives in case group was significantly lower than control group (Z =8.22,P <0.01).Conclusion HAI occurred in ARI children can increase medical cost,prolong length of hospital stay and decrease satisfaction degree of patients’relatives.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of nosocomial infection (NI) in elder patients with cerebral infarction Methods A retrospective study was performed.Three hundred and two patients over 60 years old with cerebral infarction were selected as our subjects,who were in a cadre ward from Jan.2011 to Jun.2013.The incidence rate of NI and the predisposing factors of NI were investigated.Results Of 302 patients with cerebral infarction,46 cases developed NI and the incidence was 15.23％.The most common site of NI was lower respiratory tract infection,counting for 60.87％ (28/46),followed by urinary tract infection(21.74％ (10/46)).The risk factors of NI included age,prolonged hospitalization,disturbance of consciousness,invasive operation and the use of antibiotics (x2 =5.720,11.517,5.185,4.218,11.931 ; P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The clinical staff should pay close attention to the risk factors of NI in elder patients with cerebral infarction.The methods include controlling the disease as soon as possible,shortening hospital stays,reducing invasive operation and the rational use of antibiotics can reduce the incidence of NI.

ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the related factors of ovario - cystic rupture during laparoscopic surgery of benign ovary tumor and to investigate the prognosis. Methods 110 patients who received laparoscopic surgery for ovary tumor were retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 68 benign ovarian cyst was successfully removed with- out intra-operative rupture , while 42 were intra-operative ruptured. Mean surgical time was significantly longer in rupture group. The incidence of ovarian cystic rupture was related to the removal of left-side tumor and cyst and pel- vic adhesions,whereas no correlation was observed with patients'ages,size of cyst, gravidity,and parity,volume of bleeding,post surgical menstruation alteration,abdominal pain,and cyst rupture. Conclusion Skill,experience in laparoscopic practices and the usage of laparoscopic bag help to avoid cystic rupture. When rupture occurs, timely cleanness with saline can decrease post-surgery complications and does not affect subsequent pregnancy.
