ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the curative effect of insulin combined with An Er Shu in treatment ofⅡtoⅢ degree pressure sores of elderly patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods A total of 120 cases of elderly diabetes mellitus patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ degree pressure sores were randomly divided into the control group (30 cases, conventional nursing treatment), the experimental group 1 (30 cases, insulin spray coating), the experimental group 2 (30 cases, An Er Shu brushing besmear), and the experimental group 3(30 cases, insulin combined An Er Shu). The curative effect and the healing time were observed. Results After four weeks treatment total effective rate was 60.0%(18/30) in the control group, 66.7%(20/30) in the experimental group 1, 76.7%(23/30) in the experimental group 2, 100.0%(30/30) in the experimental group 3, and there was significant difference in the 3 experimental groups comparing with the control group, the experimental group 1 and the experimental group 2, respectively (χ2=15.000, 12.000, 5.822, P<0.05 or 0.01). The healing time ofⅡdegree pressure sores was (19.03 ± 0.85) d in the control group, (18.90 ± 0.92) d in the experimental group 1, (18.43 ± 0.82) d in the experimental group 2, and (16.97 ± 1.25) d in the experimental group 3, and there was significant difference in the experimental group 3 comparing with the control group, experimental group 1 and experimental group 2, respectively (t=8.013, 7.918, 8.930, P<0.01), and in the experimental group 2 comparing with the control group (t=3.525, P<0.01). The healing time ofⅢdegree pressure sores was (24.17 ± 1.51) d in the control group, (23.63 ± 1.33) d in the experimental group 1, (23.47 ± 1.25) d in the experimental group 2, and (21.07 ± 1.46) d in the experimental group 3, and there was significant difference in the experimental group 3 comparing with the control group, experimental group 1 and experimental group 2, respectively (t=6.918, 7.048, 9.200, P<0.01). Pressure sores area reduction was (44.47 ± 37.63)%in the control group, (56.50 ± 39.64)%in the experimental group 1, (66.23 ± 37.54)%in the experimental group 2, and (96.52 ± 7.71) % in the experimental group 3, and there was significant difference in the experimental group 3 comparing with the control group, the experimental group 1 and the experimental group 2, respectively (Z=-4.274,-4.274,-3.400, P<0.01). Conclusions Insulin combined An Er Shu in treatment of pressure sores in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus can improve curative effect and shorten the healing time.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the influence of nursing intervention on perioperative psychological status and treatment compliance of patients undergoing breast augmentation. Methods 82 patients were investigated with self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depression scale (SDS), self-designed mental activity questionnaire on patients with breast augmentation. And they were divided into the intervention group(42 patients) and the control group(40 patients) randomly. The control group was given routine treatment and nursing. The intervention group received systematic nursing intervention such as psychological needs,confidentiality, the relevant specialist knowledge and explanation and prevention o complications besides routine treatment and nursing care. The perioperative psychological status and treatment efficacy were compared between the two groups. Results The worrying degree about operation - related problems was lower in the intervention group compared with that of the control group, but SAS and SDS score showed no significant difference one day before operation between the two groups. SAS and SDS score of the intervention group were improved before discharge compared with those before operation and were also better than those of the control group. Conclusions Patients undergoing breast augmentation surgery subject to a variety of perioperative psychological barriers, systematic nursing intervention can significantly improve the psychological state and treatment compliance, make them to acquire the unification of perfect body shape and psychology with best physical and mental status during perioperative stage.
