ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the safety of Polyisobutylene (PIB) Gutong plaster by transdermal administration. METHODS:66 rabbits were randomly divided into a normal group,a group with intact skin and a group with damaged skin. The latter two groups were respectively re-divided into PIB group,the groups of low,medium and high-dose PIB Gutong plaster and Gutong plaster group. An acute toxicity test was conducted on the rabbits,which 14 d of continuous observation was made 24 h af-ter transdermal administration. Another 60 rabbits were divided into several groups as above except for a normal group. A single pri-mary skin irritation test was conducted on them,where skin irritation reactions were recorded 6 h after a single administration based on intra-individual left/right self comparison method. 70 guinea pigs were randomized into a negative control group (vase-line),a PIB group,a positive control group(2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene),a Gutong plaster group and the groups of low,medium and high-dose PIB Gutong plaster,which were dosed for sensitization,followed by a skin sensitization test. RESULTS:No obvi-ous toxicity symptoms could be seen after administration of PIB Gutong plaster. The rabbits’intact or damaged skin had no irrita-tion response to PIB and low and medium-dose PIB Gutong plaster. PIB Gutong plaster caused no irritation response in the rabbits’ intact skin,but slight irritation in damaged skin 1 h after administration. The allergic reaction incidence of the positive control group of guinea pigs was 100% while that of any other groups was 0. CONCLUSIONS:The PIB Gutong plaster is safe for trans-dermal administration.
ABSTRACT
Alzheimer′s patients bring heavy burden to their family and society, causing potential safety prob-lems unable to escort for a long time with the family, physical constraints between protection and between self-es-teem and the mental health law,the quality of life and life values produce a series of contradiction and ethical is-sues,also make close contact with their nursing staff have to face the moral and ethical dilemma.The suggestions are:Hospital provides professional full-time, professional pension caregivers of alzheimer′s patients for long-term care, Strengthen the communication of nursing staff and patients′families, Reasonable and legitimate use tools, Perfect medical system construction, buildMedical support combinedcare system, Carry out the comprehensive rehabilitation nursing intervention, improve the patients quality of life, Change service concept, strengthening the study of ethical knowledge and application to promote the doctor-patient relationship.
