ABSTRACT
The article reviewed three aspects of hemiplegic shoulder pain after stroke-introduction, rehabilitation nursing and prospect, in order to provide references for developing effective nursing interventions in the future. We obtained literature from the Cochrane Library, JBI Evidence-based Nursing, PubMed, Wanfang and CNKI Databases between January 2000 and May 2016. According to the principle of three relevant aspects, priority to latest five years and critical appraisal, 39 studies were included. Literature analysis showed that rehabilitation nursing mainly consists of position nursing, supportive devices using, manipulative care and psychological support. Also, it put forward that comprehensive rehabilitation nursing measures have become major means, the combination of Chinese traditional and Western medicine is characteristic therapy in our nation, and nursing practice based on evidence should be set up early to relieve the symptom of hemiplegic shoulder pain and promote quality of life for stroke patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application value of nutritional support therapy after resection of esophageal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 125 patients with esophageal cancer who were admitted to the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University between May and November 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002), 58 patients with scores of NRS 2002 ≥3 were allocated to the A group including 43 receiving nutritional support therapy in the A1 group and 15 receiving no nutritional support therapy in the A2 group;67 patients with scores of NRS 2002 ＜ 3 were allocated to the B group including 29 receiving nutritional support therapy in the B1 group and 38 receiving no nutritional support therapy in the B2 group.The NRS 2002 was used as a screening tool of nutritional risk within 48 hours after admission.There was nutritional risk in patients with scores of NRS 2002 ≥ 3 and no nutritional risk in patients with scores of NRS 2002 ＜ 3.Patients and their families would choose whether or not underwent nutritional support therapy after the risks being informed.Parenteral nutritional support therapy used any 2 kinds of intravenously infusions of glucose, fat emulsion and amino acid, and enteral nutritional support therapy included tube feeding enteral nutrition or oral nutriments.The calories ≥ 10 kcal/(kg · d) were offered for more than 5 days.The incidence of malnutrition in patients with nutritional risk was calculated, and the level of serum Alb and prealbumin before operation, at postoperative day 3 and day 7, postoperative recovery time of gastrointestinal function and duration of hospital stay were detected.Count data were analyzed using the chi-square test.Measurement data with normal distribution were presented as-x ± s.Comparison among groups was analyzed using the LSD-t test, and repeated measures data were analyzed by the repeated measures ANOVA.Results Of 58 patients in the A group, 51 patients were complicated with malnutrition with a incidence of 87.9％, and nutritional support therapy in 43 patients was well tolerated without abdominal pain, distension and diarrhea.The level of serum Alb before operation, at postoperative day 3 and day 7 were (29.4 ± 1.7) g/L, (29.8 ± 1.5) g/L, (32.2 ± 2.3) g/L in the A1 group, (28.5±1.9)g/L, (27.0±1.8)g/L, (28.3 ±1.7)g/L in the A2 group, (35.8±1.3)g/L, (36.0± 1.4) g/L, (37.4 ± 2.1) g/L in the B1 group and (34.5 ± 1.3) g/L, (35.3 ± 1.7) g/L, (36.3 ± 1.5) g/L in the B2 group, showing a significant difference in the changing trends between the A1 and A2 groups (F =2.541, P ＜0.05) and no significant difference between the B1 and B2 groups (F =0.734, P ＞ 0.05).The number of patients with level of prealbumin ＜2.5 g/L and ≥2.5 g/L before operation, at postoperative day 3 and day 7 were 17 and 26, 13 and 30, 10 and 33 in the A1 group, 6 and 9, 9 and 6, 10 and 5 in the A2 group, 5 and 24, 6 and 23, 7 and 22 in the B1 group and 7 and 31, 9 and 29, 13 and 25 in the B2 group, with a significant difference between the A1 and A2 groups (x2 =4.183, P ＜ 0.05) and no significant difference between the B1 and B2 groups (x2 =0.795, P ＞ 0.05).The postoperative recovery time of gastrointestinal function and duration of hospital stay were (3.2 ± 0.8) days and (11.6 ± 1.1) days in the A1 group, (3.8 ± 1.0) days and (15.5 ± 2.7) days in the A2 group, (2.7 ± 1.0) days and (10.6 ± 2.6) days in the B1 group and (3.2 ± 0.8) days and (11.3 ±1.5) days in the B2 group, with significant differences between the A1 and A2 groups (t =0.921, 3.005, P ＜0.05) and no significant difference between the B1 and B2 groups (t =0.927, 0.440, P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Application of NRS 2002 for evaluating nutritional status and guiding nutritional support therapy in patients with esophageal cancer is accurate and trusted.The postoperative nutritional support therapy should be selectively and reasonably applied to patients with nutritional risk, and it can improve the nutritional status of patients with esophageal cancer, enhance postoperative recovery and reduce duration of hospital stay.
ABSTRACT
Objective To assess right ventricular (RV) regional and global volume and systolic function in patients with right coronary artery disease by real time three-dimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE).Methods RT-3DE images were acquired in 20 normal controls (Group A),30 patients with right coronary artery stenosis(Group B) and 10 patients with RV myocardial infarction(Group C).Volumetric RT-3DE images were analyzed by use of TomTec software,which provided regional (inflow,body and outflow) and global end diastolic volume(EDV),end systolic volume(ESV),stroke volume(SV) and ejection fraction(EF).RT-3DE quantitative data were analyzed to test repeatability.Results Compared with group A and group B,EDV and ESV of body and global were larger in group C;ESV of inflow and outflow were larger (P ＜0.05).EDV of group C was larger than group B(P ＜0.05).Compared with group A and group B,the EF of inflow,outflow and global in group C were lower(P ＜0.05).The EF of body in group C were lower than group B(P ＜0.05).There was no significant difference in regional and global volume and EF between group A and group B(P ＞0.05).The intra-observer and inter-observer's variability was low and consistency was high.Conclusions In patients with RV myocardial infarction,RV regional and global volumes were enlarged and systolic function was impaired.Evaluating right ventricular regional and global volume and function in patients with right coronary artery disease by RT-3DE has high repeatability.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical effects of new ventral moxibustion box in treating primary dysmenorrhea of the type of congealing cold blood stasis. Methods 158 patients of primary dysmenorrhea of the type of congealing cold blood stasis were randomized into new ventral moxibustion box treatment group(56 patients),traditional moxibustion box treatment group(52patients)and control group (50patients). The control group was treated by conventional treatment, and the other two groups were treated by new ventral moxibustion box and traditional moxibustion box. The therapeutic effects were compared after treatment. Results After treatment,the cure rate of new ventral moxibustion box treatment group was 35.71%, the cure rate of traditional moxibustion box treatment group are 34.61%,both were better than18.00%of the control group with statistical significance(χ2=4.17, 3.62, P<0.05). The total effective rate of new ventral moxibustion box treatment group was 92.86%, the total effective rate of traditional moxibustion box treatment group was 90.38%,both were better than 70.00%of the control group with statistical significance(χ2=9.38, 6.72, P<0.01). The safety rate of new ventral moxibustion box treatment group was better than the control group(χ2=5.91, P<0.05). Conclusion The new ventral moxibustion box can not only improve the curative effect of primary dysmenorrhea of the type of congealing cold blood stasis,but also can improve the safety rate in treating primary dysmenorrhea.
