RESUMO
Objective:To explore the effect of cluster nursing in robot-assisted surgery for the treatment of reducible atlantoaxial dislocation.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 41 patients with reducible atlantoaxial dislocation treated by robot-assisted surgery in Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University from January 2019 to December 2021, including 28 males and 13 females; aged 18-79 years [(45.2±10.3)years]. Ninteen patients received cluster nursing (cluster nursing group), with operating room nursing team set up on the basis of routine nursing and performed cluster nursing in line with evidence-based medicine. Twenty-two patients received routine nursing (routine nursing group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, frequency of intraoperative C-arm fluoroscopy, time of drainage tube placement and chief surgeon′s satisfaction for nursing were compared between the two groups. The degree of pain was evaluated by pain numerical score (NRS) at 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 1 month and 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The neck disability index (NDI) was assessed at 1 day before operation, 1 month after operation, 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-18 months [(16.7±3.7)months]. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, frequency of C-arm fluoroscopy and time of drainage tube placement in cluster nursing group were (82.9±10.4)minutes, (105.9±11.8)ml, (3.8±0.6)times and (1.5±0.4)days, while those in routine nursing group were (125.7±12.8)minutes, (208.4±13.8)ml, (9.7±2.3)times and (3.6±0.6)days, respectively (all P<0.01). The chief surgeon′s satisfaction for nursing was 94.7% (18/19) in cluster nursing group and was 68.2% (15/22) in routine nursing group ( P<0.05). The NRS in cluster nursing group was (6.2±0.4)points, (6.0±0.7)points, (4.9±1.1)points, (2.7±0.5)points, (1.9±0.4)points, (1.8±0.4)points and (1.5±0.3)points at 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 1 month and 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up, while it was (7.6±0.6)points, (6.8±1.2)points, (5.8±1.5)points, (4.2±0.8)points, (3.4±0.7)points, (2.6±0.5)points and (2.2±0.5)points in routine nursing group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). There was no significant difference in the NDI between the two groups at 1 day before operation, but the NDI in cluster nursing group was 20.6±4.5, 14.6±2.8 and 10.7±2.5 at 1 month and 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up, while it was 26.9±4.1, 18.7±3.3 and 13.7±1.7 in routine nursing group (all P<0.01). There was no hematoma, infection or implant-related complications in both groups .Conclusion:For robot-assisted surgery in the treatment of reducible atlantoaxial dislocation, cluster nursing is associated with shortened operation time and time of drainage tube placement, decreased intraoperative blood loss and frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, increased chief surgeon′s satisfaction for nursing, reduced pain and accelerated functional recovery.
RESUMO
Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.
RESUMO
Objective:To compare the effect of systematic nursing in operating room and routine nursing in reducing intraoperative stress injury in patients with spinal fracture and spinal cord injury.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 285 patients with cervical or thoracolumbar fracture associated with spinal cord injury admitted to Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2018 to December 2019, including 168 males and 127 females, with the age of 38-59 years [(47.8±8.5)years]. All patients underwent posterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation. Of all, 138 patients received systematic nursing in operating room including systematic evaluation and management before, during and after operation (observation group), and 147 patients received routine nursing including only intraoperative preventive care of pressure ulcer (control group). The incidence of pressure injury on the day after operation, degree of injury and location of injury at postoperative 3 days, and area of injury on the day after operation and at postoperative 3 days were compared between the two groups. The degree of injury was evaluated using the new stress injury staging assessment published by the American National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP).Results:The incidence of pressure injury in observation group [5.1% (7/138)] was lower than that in control group [12.2% (18/147)] on the day after operation ( P<0.05). The incidence of stage I, stage II, and stage III pressure injury in observation group [2.9% (4/138), 2.2% (3/138), 0.0%] was also lower than that in control group [8.2% (12/147), 3.4% (5/147), 0.6% (1/147)] at postoperative 3 days ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of pressure injury in the knee, chest, face and anterior superior iliac spine between the two groups ( P>0.05). The total proportion of pressure injury in the face and anterior superior iliac spine was 71% (5/7) in observation group, showing no significant difference from that in control group [83% (15/18)] ( P>0.05). The area of injury was (3.2±1.2)cm 2 and (3.2±1.1)cm 2 in observation group on the day after operation and at postoperative 3 days, lower than that in in control group [(5.1±1.5)cm 2 and (5.1±1.4)cm 2] ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with the routine nursing, systematic nursing in operating room can significantly reduce the incidence, degree and area of intraoperative pressure injury in patients with spinal fracture accompanied by spinal cord injury, and deserves clinical promotion.
RESUMO
Since December 2019, the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) has been reported in Wuhan, Hubei Province. Almost 70% of patients susceptible to 2019-nCoV are over age of 50 years, with extremely large proportion of critical illness and death of the elderly patients. Meanwhile, the elderly patients are at high risk of osteoporotic fractures especially osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF). During the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic, orthopedists are confronted with the following difficulties including how to screen and protect OVCF patients, how to accurately diagnose and assess the condition of OVCF patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, and how to develop reasonable treatment plans and comprehensive protective measures in emergency and outpatient clinics. In order to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of patients with OVCF diagnosed with COVID-19, the authors jointly develop this expert consensus. The consensus systematically recommends the standardized emergency and outpatient screening and confirmation procedures for OVCF patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 and protective measures for emergency and outpatient clinics. Moreover, the consensus describes the grading and classification of OVCF patients diagnosed with COVID-19 according to the severity of illness and recommends different treatment plans and corresponding protective measures based on the different types and epidemic prevention and control requirements.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the perioperative risk factors of surgical site infection (SSI) of subaxial cervical spine injury after anterior surgery and provide a basis for the development of nursing measures.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 754 patients with subaxial cervical spine injury who underwent anterior surgery from January 2014 to January 2018, including 511 males and 243 females, aged 44-61 years [(50.2±5.1)years]. The fracture segment was C 3 in 60 patients, C 4 in 159, C 5 in 197, C 6 in 236 patients, and C 7 in 102. The patients were divided into two groups according to SSI occurrence. There were 28 patients in infected group and 726 patients in non-infected group. Data of the two groups were recorded, such as demographic data, American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) scale, comorbidity, time interval from skin preparation to operation, preoperative urinary catheterization or not, consecutive operation or not, total number of staff involved in the operation, layer flow level of operating room, operating room temperature, relative humidity, operation duration, intern nurse involved in the operation or not and surgical methods. Univariate analysis was used to screen the indicators with statistically significant differences between the two groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was further used to identify the risk factors of SSI. Results:The occurrence rate of SSI was 3.71% (28/754). The univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences between the two groups in ASIA scale, diabetes, dietary nursing, time interval from skin preparation to operation, preoperative urinary catheterization, consecutive operation, total number of staff involved in the operation, layer flow level of operating room and operation duration( P<0.01). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the ASIA scale (grade A: OR= 84.421, grade B: OR=27.200, P<0.01), diabetes ( OR=3.234, P<0.05), without diet nursing ( OR=2.375, P<0.05), time interval from skin preparation to operation ≥ 6 h ( OR=2.542, P<0.05), preoperative urinary catheterization ( OR=4.085, P<0.01), consecutive operation ( OR=2.894, P<0.05), total number of staff in the operating room ≥ 8 ( OR=3.137, P<0.01), layer flow level of operating room is grade 10, 000 or above ( OR=5.380, P<0.01) and operation duration≥ 3 h ( OR=2.405, P<0.05) were positively correlated with perioperative SSI. Conclusions:The factors associated with SSI of subaxial cervical spine injury after anterior surgery are the ASIA scale (grade A and B), diabetes, without diet nursing, time interval from skin preparation to operation ≥ 6 h, preoperative urinary catheterization, consecutive operation, total number of staff in the operating room ≥ 8, layer flow level of operating room (grade 10, 000 or above) and operation duration ≥3 h. For patients with subaxial cervical spine injury, attention should be paid to diet care, blood glucose monitoring should be strengthened, and operating room management should be optimized.
