Application of Baduanjin in functional exercise of elderly patients with chronic knee osteoarthritis and its effect on exercise capacity and self-management effectiveness / 中华健康管理学杂志

Objective:To explore the effect of Baduanjin functional exercise on the motor ability and self-management of the elderly patients with chronic knee osteoarthritis.Methods:From June 2018 to June 2019, 120 cases of elderly patients with chronic knee osteoarthritis who were treated in Ningbo Traditional Chinese Hospital were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group with 60 cases each. The control group was given routine functional exercise, while the experimental group was given Baduanjin exercise. Three months later, isokinetic muscle strength (including peak torque and average power) of quadriceps femora was compared before and after exercise. After exercise, the motor ability was measured by the simple Fugl-Meyer motor function rating scale (FM), and the self-management efficacy was assessed by the general self-efficacy scale (GSES).Results:A total of 11 cases were lost in 120 patients, and 54 cases were included in the control group and 55 cases in the experimental group.After exercise, the peak torque and average power of quadriceps femoris in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(75.5±5.4) vs.(68.9±5.6) N·m, (73.9±2.0) vs. (68.3±4.4) W], and the scores of part of lower limbsin the FM and GSEs were also significantly higher than those in the control group [(24.3±2.9) vs. (22.1±2.6) points, (3.1±0.4) vs. (2.7±0.4) points] (all P<0.001). Conclusion:Baduanjin functional exercise can improve the motor ability and self-management of elderly patients with chronic knee osteoarthritis.

Build of a New-style Asepsis Ward(2) / 中华医院感染学杂志

OBJECTIVE To compare the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) simulated results and field test data of the new-style asepsis ward.METHODS We used various equipments to test the asepsis ward and CFD software to simulate airflow of asepsis ward.RESULTS After calculating and comparing,we found the CFD simulation results agreed well with the tested data.Key design and operating parameters were up to the standard.The new-style of asepsis ward could improve the air quality and provide a comfortable environment for patient treatment and it was of great help to decrease the infection rate of patient.CONCLUSIONS The new-style asepsis ward can significantly control the endogenous infection of patients.

Construction of a New-style Aseptic Ward Part 1 / 中华医院感染学杂志

OBJECTIVE We designed the overall layout,formulated the functional demand,and optimized the key design and operating parameters of a new-style asepsis clean ward.The new-style ward intends to provide a higher quality environment for patient infection control and all-around protection during treatment.METHODS We applied computational fluid dynamics(CFD)simulation to optimize the design scheme according to Chinese and international hospital design specifications.RESULTS The new-style asepsis ward reflected a new idea,new technology,high standards and created a comfortable and safe,high-quality environment for the treatment of patient.The Satisfaction of patients was more than 95% and workload of nurses was alleviated obviously.CONCLUSIONS The new-style asepsis ward can significantly control the endogenous infection of patients.
