RESUMEN
Objective The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effect of the homemade wrist restraint belt in postoperative patients during anesthesia recovery period.Methods Three hundred postoperative patients were randomly assigned into two groups,patients in the control group(n =150)were constrained with traditional restraint belt while patients(n =150)in the observation group were constrain-ed with homemade wrist restraint belt before recovered from general anesthesia in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU).The effectiveness of constraint,patients comfort,constraint related complications,PACU faculty responses on the satisfaction were recorded during anesthesia re-covery period.Results The complications in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P <0.05).Compared with con-trol group,the patient satisfaction,patient comfort,PACU faculty satisfaction were significant higher in the observation group (P <0.05).Con-clusion The homemade wrist constraints could increase the patient’s safety and comfort,reduce restraint belt related complications during anesthesia recovery period.It revealed more effectiveness than the traditional restraint belt.
RESUMEN
Bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spines, femoral neck, Ward′s triangle and greater trochanter was lowered, serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase and bone Gla-protein levels were raised, and vitamin D receptor (VDR) contents in lymphocyte was lowered in hyperthyroid patients. Both FT 3 and FT 4 were negatively correlated with BMD, suggesting that hyperthyroidism results in high-turnover type of bone loss which causes the abnormalities of bone metabolic indices and VDR content.
