RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of different prone position ventilation (PPV) on patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) at high altitude.Methods:The severe ARDS patients who met the Berlin standard admitted to the department of intensive care unit (ICU) of Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital from January 2017 to January 2020 were enrolled. The patients with classic PPV treatment (i.e. alternate prone supine position, about 16 hours per day) were included in the discontinuous PPV group; the patients with modified PPV treatment (i.e. alternate left and right prone positions 20°-30°, every 4 hours and continuous treatment for 24 hours per day) were included in the continuous PPV group. The oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), mechanics of breathing, ventilator parameters before treatment and 72 hours after treatment, and mechanical ventilation time, the length of ICU stay, and related complications between the two groups were analyzed. Results:Eighteen cases were treated with continuous PPV and 20 cases were treated with discontinuous PPV. There were no significant differences in gender, age, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ), PaO 2/FiO 2, lung compliance, driving pressure (ΔP) and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) before treatment between the two groups. Compared with before treatment, PaO 2/FiO 2 in discontinuous PPV group and continuous PPV group was increased significantly after 72-hour treatment [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 99.7±15.4 vs. 55.5±6.3, 121.8±25.3 vs. 55.1±7.1, both P < 0.05], lung compliance was improved significantly (mL/cmH 2O: 36.8±2.4 vs. 28.0±2.0, 43.4±6.7 vs. 27.7±2.1, both P < 0.05), and ΔP was decreased significantly [cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa): 10.5 (10.0, 12.0) vs. 13.0 (12.3, 14.0), 10.0 (8.0, 12.0) vs. 13.0 (12.0, 14.0), both P < 0.05], PEEP was also decreased [cmH 2O: 12 (12, 14) vs. 14 (13, 14), 10 (8, 10) vs. 14 (12, 15), both P < 0.05], and the indexes in continuous PPV group were improved more significantly than those in discontinuous PPV group [PaO 2/FiO 2 (mmHg): 121.8±25.3 vs. 99.7±15.4, lung compliance (mL/cmH 2O): 43.4±6.7 vs. 36.8±2.4, ΔP (cmH 2O): 10.0 (8.0, 12.0) vs. 10.5 (10.0, 12.0), PEEP (cmH 2O): 10 (8, 10) vs. 12 (12, 14), all P < 0.05]. The duration of mechanical ventilation and the length of ICU stay in the continuous PPV group were significantly shorter than those in the intermittent PPV group [days: 6.0 (5.0, 7.3) vs. 8.0 (7.0, 9.0), 9.7±1.5 vs. 12.1±2.2, both P < 0.01]. During the PPV treatment, there were 3 cases of cheek skin damage and 2 cases of ear skin damage in the continuous PPV group, and 3 cases of facial skin damage in the intermittent PPV group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups ( χ2 = 0.321, P = 0.571). All patients were repaired normally after PPV, without adverse consequences. Conclusion:Continuous PPV is more effective than discontinuous PPV in the treatment of severe ARDS patients at high altitude, and the related complications are did not increased in prolonged time of PPV.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the current practice environment of male nurses in Qinghai province, and understand the professional environment and turnover intention of male nurses, provide ideas and theoretical basis for continuous improvement of the working environment of male nurses in hospitals.Methods:From September to October 2020, the practice environment and turnover intention of male nurses in Qinghai Province were investigated by using the method of convenience sampling and using the general data questionnaire, the Nurse Practice Environment Assessment Scale and the turnover intention table.Results:A total of 155 registered male nurses in Qinghai Province participated in this survey, and the overall evaluation score of the practicing environment of nurses in Qinghai Province was (74.38±22.63) points, among which the highest score was that nurses could write nursing records in time (85.24±20.99) points, and the lowest score was that nurses had the opportunity to participate in the internal management of the hospital (55.03±30.55) points. The total score of resignation intention was (14.34±4.35) points.Conclusion:The overall evaluation of the practicing environment of male nurses in Qinghai Province is fair, and their turnover intention is high. Nursing managers should attach importance to the cultivation of male nurses' feelings towards hospitals and professions, so as to reduce their turnover intention and stabilize the nursing team of male nurses.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the effective application of ventilation at prone position on patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) at high altitude. Methods A total of 19 severe ARDS patients in ICU of Qinghai Province People's Hospital were enrolled from February in 2016 to February. in 2018, all of them ventilated at the prone position, several indicators were assessed:heart rate (HR), respiratory (R), mean arterial pressure (MAP); blood gas indicators: arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2), inhaled oxygen concentration (FiO2), carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2), PH, lung compliance, PEEP and so on, which assessed before and 12h, 24h, 48h, 72h after the ventilation. Results FiO2 and PEEP significantly declined at 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after ventilation at the prone position. HR, MAP, R, PaO2, PaCO2, SPO2, PaO2/FiO2, pH and lung compliance significantly improved (F=32.30,24.73, P<0.05). Conclusions It was an effective method for ARDS patients to improve the oxygenation status and vital signs at the plateau with ventilation used at the prone position and probably nursing intervention, which have clinical application value.
