ABSTRACT
Objective@#To observe the related factors of premature infants with different gestational age.@*Methods@#In the premature infants who were followed up after discharge, 114 cases with complete data were selected, and grouped at birth by gestational age.The possible impact variables were collected, single factor analysis was used to screen possible factors, then multiple linear regression analysis was conducted.@*Results@#Of 114 premature infants, the incidence rate of pregnancy induced hypertension in pregnancy complications was 38.60%.Secondly, the incidence rate of premature rupture of membranes was 30.70%.The incidence of preterm birth in pregnancy complications was 2.111 times greater than that in non pregnancy complications, its confidence interval was (0.846, 5.269). The level of education of parents above college was preterm, and the severity was 0.627 times higher than that in non universities, its confidence interval was (0.311, 1.266). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that preconception complications and parents' degree of culture were the related factors of premature infants.@*Conclusion@#Reducing pregnancy complications and raising the level of parent culture can reduce preterm birth.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To observe the effects of Traditional Chinese Medicine bubble bath on the children with spastic diplegia cerebral palsy. Methods 13 children with spastic diplegia cerebral palsy received routine rehabilitation and bubble bath (control group), while 14 children received routine rehabilitation and Traditional Chinese Medicine bubble bath (experimental group). All the children were assessed with Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66) and Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) of triceps surae muscle before and 10 weeks after treatment.Results The total score of GMFM-66 increased (P<0.001) and the MAS score decreased in both groups (P<0.01) after treatment. The dimensions B, D, and E of GMFM-66 only increased in the experimental group (P<0.05). The MAS score decreased more in the experimental group than in the control group after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion Traditional Chinese Medicine bubble bath can improve gross motor function and reduce triceps surae muscle tension of the children with spastic diplegia cerebral palsy.
