ABSTRACT

Abstract Our aim was to determine the prevalence of potential drug-drug interactions (pDDIs) and to identify relevant factors associated with the occurrence of the most dangerous or contraindicated pDDIs (pCDDIs) in hospitalized patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH). A retrospective cross-sectional study was performed enrolling all consecutive patients with sICH treated at the Neurological Intensive Care Unit, Clinical Center in Kragujevac, Serbia, during the three-year period (2012-2014). The inclusion criteria encompassed patients aged 18 years and over, those diagnosed with ICH, and those prescribed at least two drugs during hospitalization, while we did not include patients whose hospitalization lasted less than 7 days, those who were diagnosed with other neurological diseases and patients with incomplete medical files. For each day of hospitalization, the online checker Micromedex® software was used to identify pDDIs and classify them according to severity. A total of 110 participants were analysed. A high prevalence of pDDIs (98.2%) was observed. The median number of pDDIs regardless of severity, was 8.00 (IQR 4.75-13.00;1-30). The pairs of drugs involving cardiovascular medicines were the most commonly identified pDDIs. Twenty percent of the total number of participants was exposed to pCDDIs. The use of multiple drugs from different pharmacological-chemical subgroups and the prescribing of anticoagulant therapy significantly increase the chance of pCDDI (aOR with 95% CI 1.19 (1.05-1.35) and 7.40 (1.13-48.96), respectively). This study indicates a high prevalence of pDDIs and pCDDIs in patients with sICH. The use of anticoagulant therapy appears to be the only modifiable clinically relevant predictor of pCDDIs.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the establishment of a cluster intervention strategy by multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) to provide a basis for the early removal of indwelling catheters in severe neurological patients.Methods:Through literature retrieval and MCDA, the catheter cluster intervention strategy was constructed, and the expert consultation was adopted to finally form 7 item cluster intervention strategies. The convenience sampling method was used to select 122 patients with severe neurological diseases as the research objects. A total of 61 patients with indwelling catheters from November 2018 to April 2019 were selected as the control group, and routine nursing care was performed according to indwelling catheters. A total of 61 patients with indwelling catheters from May 2019 to October 2019 were selected as the intervention group to compare the success rate of removing catheters, the number of days of indent catheters and the incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infection ( CAUTI) in the two groups, as well as to analyze the indicators related to indent catheters in the intervention group with different diagnoses. Results:CAUTI incidence, successful catheter removal rate, indwelling days of catheter in the intervention group were 39.3% (24/61), 32.79% (20/61), 17 (14,22) days, which were significantly higher than 59.0% (36/61), 8.19% (5/61), 21 (15, 27) days in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2 values were 4.723, 11.775, Z value was -9.211, P<0.05 or 0.01); In the intervention group, stroke patients′ indwelling time of catheter were 7-20 days, and the highest success rate of removing urinary catheters 36.6% (15/41), compared with other diseases, the difference was statistically significant ( Z values were -2.448, -2.109, P<0.05). Conclusion:MCDA construction of early catheter removal strategy can significantly shorten the indwelling time of the catheter in patients with severe neurological diseases, improve the success rate of early catheter extubation, reduce the CAUTI rate, to provide evidence-based basis for clinical nursing.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the application value of percutaneous dilational tracheostomy in the neurological intensive patients. Methods The clinical data of 298 neurological intensive patients treated with percutaneous dilational tracheotomy were analyzed retrospectively from June 2010 to July 2016. Results Percutaneous dilational tracheostomy was successfully performed in all of the 298 cases. The mean operation duration was (6.8 ± 2.2) minutes with a rang of 2 to 15 min. There were 1 case with tracheal tube placement difficulties, 1 case in whom the trachea spatium was strayed into, 1 case with arrhythmia, 10 cases with mild bleeding and 5 cases with moderate bleeding. No severe bleeding, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, tracheoesophageal fistula and other complications caused by the operation were found. And no death case was found. Conclusions Percutaneous dilational tracheostomy is a rapid and minimally invasive technique, which is a better choice for patients with severe neurological diseases.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the level and influence factors of sleep quality in caregivers to neurological intensive care unit (NICU) survivors. Methods The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PQSI) and the sleep quality influence factor scale were administered on 167 family caregivers to NICU survivors. Results The score of PQSI was 8.81 ± 3.25,and 55.68%(98/167) of caregivers reported poor sleep quality. Logistic regression analysis showed that medical insurance(OR=2.025, P<0.01), hospital stay (OR==2.235, P<0.01), whether caregivers in service (OR=0.583, P<0.05), resisdence(OR=2.341, P<0.01), and tracheal tubes/ventricular drainage (OR=5.857, P<0.01) were influencing factors of sleep quality. Conclusions It proved that our intervention should focus on family caregivers to NICU survivors social and psychological characteristics may help to enhance their sleep quality and quality of life.

ABSTRACT

The authors give an account of the historical development of neurological intensive care and its current status in China and put forward the view that establishment of neurological intensive care units can improve the level of neurological departments in delivering emergency treatments and give impetus to the improvement of expertise in diagnosing and treating acute neurological diseases. It will also play a key role in clinically conducting encephalic resuscitation and hibernation therapy, finely monitoring changes of intracranial physiologic indexes by electro physiological methods, further clarifying organ failure resulting from cerebral and neural failure, and promoting the study of nerve grafting and regeneration. Neurological intensive care units can serve as both the teaching base for training professional staff and the research base for advancing neurological emergency medicine.
