RESUMO
Objective Discussion leukoreduction of red blood cells suspended in two different storage bag placement and he-molysis rate impact on the supernatant free hemoglobin (FHb),to ensure the clinical transfusion is safe and effective.Meth-ods Selected 20 donors to sample 400 ml whole blood per person to make leukodepleted red blood cells,which were evenly divided into 10 bags.The 10 bags were randomly divided into two groups,one to the upright position,one group of horizon-tal.The two groups were stored under the same conditions.Respectively,in the 7,14,21,28,35 day,randomly removed one storage bag from each group,FHb and red blood cell hemolysis rate were measured and analyzed statistically.Results FHb and hemolysis rate results stored in the first 21 days of testing,uprightgroup were (217.310±48.477)mg/L and (0.250± 0.056)%,respectively horizontal group (173.972±39.027)mg/L and (0.189±0.045)%,the results set upright than hori-zontal group,the results were statistically(t=3.114,P =0.003<0.05 and t=3.798,P =0.001<0.05),the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion In the blood storage period,storage bags can be placed horizontally to reduce the de-struction of red blood cells,blood storage is more favorable.
RESUMO
[Objective] To investigate the result from continuous quality improvement of care management in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneu-monia(VAP).[Method] The ICU patients from June to December 2010 were selected in a control group before the continuous quality improvement ,and the ICU patients from January to June 2011 were selected in the observation group after the continuous quality improvement. Before and after the contin-uous quality improvement,to investigate and analyze their knowledge on VAP and their adherence of continuing implementation about the VAP bundle nursing strategy in 26 medical staff.[Results] After the continuous quality improvement ,there was more significantly difference in their knowledge on VAP and their adherence of continuing implementation about the VAP bundle nursing strategy than before. By the continuous quality improvement, the VAP infection rate decreased from 41.2%to 23.7%,and the difference was statistical y significant. [Conclusion] In the care management for preventing VAP ,the application of continuous quality improvement management can increase the awareness of VAP ,improve the implementation of VAP prevention and con-trol measures,and reduce the incidence of VAP.
RESUMO
Objective: To investigate the characteristics of etiology and drug resistance of nosocomial infection in the neurosurgery intensive care unit(NICU),and provide useful information for clinical practice.Methods: We analyzed the clinical data of 179 cases of nosocomial infection among 1 163 patients admitted in the NICU from June 2005 to March 2007.Results: From the 179 patients,346 strains of bacteria were obtained,of which Gram's negative bacili accounted for 52.89%,Gram's positive cocci 38.15% and fungi 8.96%.Of the diagnosed nosocomial infections,83.80% involved the lower respiratory tract,10.61% the urinary tract,2.79% the blood vessels,1.68% the central nervous system and 1.12% the hematological system.Conclusion: To reduce nosocomial infections in the NICU,emphasis should be placed on the control of lower respiratory tract infection as well as on the prevention and treatment of Gram's positive coccus infection in the acute stage and Gram's negative bacillus infection in the later stage.Intensified prevention measures based on the standard ones could help to get the drug-resistant strains under control.
