ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of clinical nursing pathway on mechanical ventilation effect of ARDS patients. Methods 59 ARDS patients with mechanical ventilation from June 2008 to December 2010 were randomly divided into the observation group (30 cases)and the control group (29 cases). The control group used the traditional care model, conventional mechanical ventilation monitoring,treatment and care according to routine measures; the observation group used clinical nursing pathway. The mechanical ventilation time, complication rate of mechanical ventilation, and the gratification level of patients in the two groups of patients were observed. Results The mechanical ventilation time in the observation group was less than the control group, and incidence of complications was lower, and satisfaction degree of patients and their families was better, the difference was statistically significant. Conclusions The clinical nursing pathway can shorten the time of mechanical ventilation, lower incidence of complications of mechanical ventilation, and it improves satisfaction degree of patients and their families.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of early acupuncture in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Methods: In clinical randomized controlled trial, 90 subjects were divided into drug group and acupuncture group, 45 cases in each group. The neurological deficit score, Bathel index and some blood laboratory indexes were detected before and after treatment in both groups. Results: In acute stage, there were striking differences in the neurological deficit score and activities of daily living (ADL) between before and after treatments in acupuncture group (P<0.01), and between acupuncture group and drug group (P<0.01); but there was no difference in blood lipid and theology between two groups. Conclusion: Acupuncture is rather safe in the early treatment of acute ischemic stroke, and improvement of disability and the patients' quality of life.
