RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the prevalence of chronic heart failure in the adult hospitalized population and to analyze the related disease burden. Methods A total of 326 chronic heart failure samples from adult inpatients in Yanliang District, Xi'an City from 2019 to 2021 were selected for analysis. The three-year epidemic situation was described and analyzed, and the information on the disease burden (hospitalization and cost, quality of life) caused by heart failure was collected, and the disease burden was preliminarily analyzed. The study used the Chinese version of the Minnesota heart failure quality of life questionnaire (Minnesota lving with heart failure questionnaire, MLHFQ) to measure the quality of life of patients during hospitalization. Results Among the patients in this study, there were 196 male patients (60.12%) and 130 female patients (39.88%), with an average age of (57.14±13.64) years, and the highest incidence was in the age group of 60-69 years. The highest proportion of cardiac function grades I to IV is grade III, and the lowest is grade I; coronary atherosclerotic heart disease is the first cause, followed by hypertensive heart disease, cardiomyopathy and rheumatism. Sexual heart valve. In addition, the patients' primary disease duration was on average (7.14±3.05) years. 26.99% of patients had blood pressure exceeding the standard during hospitalization. The average length of hospitalization of the subjects was (12.97±4.52) d, and there were significant differences in the length of hospitalization between patients with different age groups, different cardiac function grades, different primary diseases, and different primary disease durations (all P<0.05). The median medical expenses of the subjects during hospitalization were 31 373.70 (15 250.65, 47 005.15) yuan. The quality of life scores of the patients with heart failure in this study were (44.65±14.47), (35.91±12.58) in the physical domain, and (53.66±19.81) in the emotional domain. And the quality of life of male patients is lower; the quality of life of heart failure caused by dilated cardiomyopathy and hypertension is lower; the level of cardiac function increases, and the quality of life score decreases. Conclusion In recent years, the elderly inpatients with chronic heart failure in Yanliang District, Xi'an City, the middle-aged, the high-level cardiac function, the patients with cardiomyopathy and hypertensive heart disease, and the patients with the normal course of the primary disease have longer hospitalization time and higher medical expenses. Male patients, patients with heart failure caused by dilated cardiomyopathy and hypertension, and patients with higher cardiac function grades have lower quality of life.
RESUMEN
Objective To summarize the successful application experience of intra-hospital transport of 13 H7N9 avian influenza patients from the general wards to the avian influenza ward. Methods Form the expert group, to determine the design target and principle of the standardized workflow and point out the operation points of standard workflow in intra-hospital transport of each link. Results The standardized workflow included the disposal of the transfer notice, condition assessment, department contact,patient preparation,object preparation,custody transfer personnel preparation,transit guardianship and transfer to the avian influenza ward,a total of eight procedures.Between January 2013 and March 2017,13 cases were successfully transfered.All patients safely arrived avian influenza ward. The process was quick and smooth.Nobody was died or rescued within 1 h after transport. Conclusions The main differences of intra-hospital transport between H7N9 avian influenza patients and general critically ill patients are the transit time control, the particularity of terminal disposal, transshipment arrangement and hospital infection management personnel involved in the whole process.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the effects of stepwise and fine-grained dietary management on the diet control of liver cirrhosis patients complicated with gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Methods Eighty liver cirrhosis patients complicated with gastrointestinal hemorrhage were assigned to experimental group (41 cases) and control group(39 cases) by random digits table method. The patients in experimental group were treated with stepwise and fine-grained dietary management and the patients in control group were given conventional dietary treatments. The compliance diet, mastery of nutrition knowledge, malnutrition risk at admission, intake food, discharge and 2 months after discharge between two groups were monitored. The incidence of rebleeding was tracked after 1 year of discharge. Results The incidence of malnutrition risk in Child-Pugh class C was higher than that in Child-Pugh class B( Z=-4.3, P<0.05 ) . The incidence of malnutrition risk in patients with high education level was lower than that in patients with lower education( r=-0.453, P<0.05 ). The experimental group significantly outperformed control group in mastery of nutrition knowledge at discharge:80(70, 84) points vs. 52(42, 64) points, in compliance diet and malnutrition risk after 2 months after discharge:86(76, 91)%vs. 53(46,57)%, 1(1, 2) points vs. 2(1,3) points, the rebleeding rate in experimental group was significantly less than that in control group within 1 year after discharge 14.6%(6/41) vs. 35.9%(14/39), and the differences were statistically significant between two groups ( χ2 = 4.226- 51.232, all P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Stepwise and fine-grained dietary management can improve the mastery of nutrition knowledge, compliance diet and nutritional status, and reduce the occurrence of rebleeding, worth popularizing further in clinical care of liver cirrhosis patients complicated with gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
RESUMEN
Objective: Clinical study on Jangzhuo Decoction for treating plasma concentrations of oxidized low density lipoprotein, d dimer of ischemic stroke and its relation to preventing repeated stroke.Methods: 72 cases with ischemic stroke were divided randomly and blindly into two groups. 36 patients with ischemic stroke in therapeutic group were treated with Jangzhuo Decoction M ASA, and 36 patients in control group were treated with M ASA alone. The follow up survey for six months was conducted when physical signs and symptoms of the paints with ischemic stroke begain to be stable. Results: The incidence of the repeated stroke in therapeutic group were one case(2.7%) and in control group were three cases(8.3%) respectively. Ox LDL levels of therapeutic group was 1021?102?g/dl( ?s ), decreased to 604?77?g/dl( P 0.05). There was significant difference between the two groups. D dimer levels of two grouups were all increased significantly( P
