ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: There are many kinds of dressings for external use in treating pressure ulcer. Selecting a kind of dressing which is convenient, safe and effective can effectively increase the healing rate of pressure ulcer. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of five common dressings on the treatment of pressure ulcer. METHODS: A systematic search of Embase, PubMed, VIP, Elsevier, WanFang and CNKI were carried out with an end-point of July 2018. Randomized controlled trials about the therapeutic effects of different dressings on pressure ulcer were collected. All data were screened, extracted and assessed by two researchers independently. The ADDIS 1.16.8 software was adopted for data analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 24 randomized control trials (1201 patients) which involved 5 kinds of dressings were included. The results of network Meta-analysis showed that the effect of hydrocolloid dressing and foam dressing were superior to aseptic gauze and vaseline gauze in treating pressure ulcer (P 0.05). Based on the probability ranking table, the therapeutic effects of five kinds of dressl ngs in pressure ulcer were ranked as follows: hydrocolloid dressing > foam dressing > hydrogel dressing > sterile gauze > vaseline gauze. Hydrocolloid dressing and foam dressing were superior to the other dressings in the treatment of pressure ulcer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To formulate a rational adjuvant therapeutic evidence-based nursing plan for a ovarian cancer chemotherapy patient with puncture piont infection of peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC).And practice in the clinic to solve the nursing problems in clinical nursing work. Methods According to the condition of the patient and using the PICO principle, we put forward clinical problems. We comprehensively searched the National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC),Cochrane Library,Pub Med, EMbase,Medline,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang Data from 2007 to 2017. Relevant clinical guidelines, evidence summaries, systematic reviews/ Meta-analysis, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and high quality reviews on nursing puncture piont infection of Peripherally Inserted Central catheter were collected and their authenticity, importance and applicability were evaluated. Results One Meta-analysis, fifteen RCTs, and one review were totally included. According to current evidence as well as the patient′s clinical conditions and preference, a comprehensive and effective adjuvant therapeutic and nursing programme was given to the patient. At the puncture point of PICC infection , PVP iodine was used to hydropathic compress for 15 minutes once a day.After naturally dried, cover with hydrocolloid dressing. After four-day treatment and nursing care, the patient with puncture piont infection had already recovered. Conclusion Evidence-based medicine approaches could help us develop comprehensive therapeutic plans for ovarian cancer chemotherapy patients with puncture piont infection of PICC, promote effectively the puncture point infection recovery,and ensure the normal safe use of PICC .Thereby alleviate pain, improve health, and increase patients′quality of life.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of hydrocolloid dressings on preventing mechanical phlebitis induced by peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC)in cancer patients. Methods 100 cancer patients with PICC were divided into observation group (n= 50)and control group (n= 50). Hydrocolloid dressing was used in observation group and hot-wet compress was used in control group. Incidence of mechanical phlebitis,comfort degree,and im-plementation time between two groups were compared.Results The incidence of mechanical phlebitis in observation group and control group were 4.0% (2/50)and 22.0% (11/50)respectively,grade of mechanical phlebitis in obser-vation group was significantly lower than control group(P<0.05). The rates of skin irritation,activity limitation, and body exposure in observation group were all significantly lower than control group (0 vs 10 . 0% ,2 . 0% vs 14.0% ,0 vs 16.0% ,respectively,all P<0.05),the implementation time of observation group and control group were (2.8±1.1)and (35.2±7.4)minutes respectively,difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Hydrocolloid dressing can significantly reduce the mechanical phlebitis induced by PICC,enhance pa-tients'comfort degree,and reduce nurses'workload.
ABSTRACT
Objective To apply the hydrocolloid dressings and hydrocolloid dressings combined GreenCream Dressing for central venous catheterization fixing, and to explore the effect of hydrocolloid dressings combined GreenCream Dressing in the prevention of venous catheter bacterial colonization and bacterial infection. Methods 470 patients who underwent the Inferior vena cava catheter were divided into 230 patients in the control group and 240 patients in the experimental group. The control group was fixed with hydrocolloid dressings after central venous catheter, and the experimental group was fixed with hydrocolloid dressings combined GreenCream Dressing after central vein catheter. The measurements included catheter bacterial colonization, catheter-related infections (CRIs) and catheter related blood stream infections (CR-BSIs), pathogenic bacteria colonization of the skin. At the same time, the skin safety was also confirmed. Results In the control group, 230 cases were retained for 1 419 catheter-days, and 240 cases in the experimental group were retained for 1 675 catheter-days. Compared with hydrocolloid dressings, hydrocolloid dressing combined GreenCream Dressing could reduce the incidence of CRIs from 1.8‰(3/1 675) to 0.7‰(1/1 675), and CR-BSIs from 2.4‰(4/1 675) to 0.7‰(1/1 675) respectively, with the statistically significant (χ2=6.39, 95%CI 1.30-31.41, andχ2=6.21, 95%CI 1.56-40.82;P<0.05). The results of bacterial colonization, CRIs and CR-BSIs showed that the most common bacteria were Staphylococcus and fungi. At the same time, compared with the hydrocolloid dressing, hydrocolloid dressing combined GreenCream dressing could reduce the incidence of skin pathogenic bacteria colonization, from 41.74%(96/230) to 28.33%(68/230),with the statistically significant (χ2=9.29,P=0.00);There was no difference between the two groups in the field of the incidence of abnormal skin manifestation (χ2=1.23, P=0.30), showing a good safety. Conclusions Hydrocolloid dressing combined GreenCream Dressing would be more effective to prevent bacterial colonization and bacterial infection of central venous catheter in department of neurosurgery.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) with nasal devices (nCPAP) is widely used in the respiratory management of newborns. The present study aimed to compare the incidence of nasal trauma secondary to nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) protected with or without hydrocolloid dressing in preterm infants. METHODS: This prospective controlled study was performed in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of the Children's Hospital of Hunan Province from March 1, 2010 to June 31, 2010. A total of 65 infants, 46 males and 19 females, were recruited in this study. Their average gestational age was 32.6 weeks (range 28–37 weeks). The infants were randomly divided into clinical trial group (group A, n=33) and control group (group B,n=32). Paraffin oil was smeared around the nostrils before inserting prongs in group B; the infants in group A were covered on the infant's nostrils surface with hydrocolloid dressing (hydrocolloid dressing, 1.8 mm thick, 90029T, 3M Company, Minnesota, USA) with a size of 2–3 cm cutting two holes adapted to the nose and nostrils. The nostrils of those infants were inspected daily during nCPAP support until they were weaned off nCPAP. RESULTS: Nine infants (2 in group A and 7 in group B) developed nasal injury during nCPAP support. The Chi-square test revealed that there was a statistically significant difference (P=0.01) in the incidence of nasal injury between groups A and B. CONCLUSION: The study demonstrated that hydrocolloid dressing significantly decreased the incidence and the severity of nasal injury.

ABSTRACT
This study is to evaluate the decubitus ulcer healing effect of occlusive dressing with hydrocolloid and traditional dry dressing for home care nursing clients. Study design was quasi-experimental pre-post test design. Control group(15 person) was treated decubitus wound with traditional dry gauze dressing, and experimental group(17 persons) was treated decubitus ulcer with occlusive dressing with hydrocolloid and calcium alginate(17 persons). Study period was from 8/1/97 to 12/31/97. Subject subjects was 17 males and 15 females with 2nd phase over decubitus ulcer aged 30 to 70 who have been registered as home care nursing clients in Nurse's Association in Seoul city. Outcome variables were stages, size of decubitus ulcer, pain at dressing time and exudate amount. Study result as follows. Occlusive dressing with hydrocolloid was superior to traditional gauze dressing decreasing ulcer size and phase, and shortening treatment period. Dressing change of occlusive dressing was easier than that of traditional gauze dressing. In conclusion, occlusive dressing was recommended to treat decubitus ulcer in home care patients even if hydrocolloid is expensive to gauze dressing because of treatment effect and easiness of dressing.
