ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the correlation between health beliefs and family environment of stroke patients. Methods A questionnaire survey was carried out on 115 stroke patients with the first onset of stroke by using the special health belief simple table (SF-HBMS) and the family environment scale (Chinese version FES-CV), and the correlation was analyzed. The scores of each subscale of the family environment were compared with the domestic norm. Results The total score of health belief (75.15 ± 10.20) was at the middle level. There were significant differences in age (F=8.41), education level (F=4.44), complications (F=4.05), family history (t=2.68) and first visit time (F=3.76) among different characteristics of health belief scores (P < 0.01 or 0.05). The score of intimacy (6.23 ± 1.27) in family environment, emotional expression score (5.30 ± 1.97), success score (5.88 ±1.62), cultural score (4.54 ± 2.20) and organizational score (5.60 ±1.67) were all lower than the domestic norm and spear. The score of shield score (3.16 ± 2.00) was higher than that of domestic norm (P<0.01 or 0.05), and the total score of health belief was positively correlated with family intimacy (r=0.190), emotional expression (r=0.204), culture (r=0.206) and tissue (r=0.227) (P<0.05), and was negatively correlated with the contradiction (r=-0.186, P<0.05); regression analysis, whether there were family history (β=0.338, P<0.01), first onset time (β=0.242, P<0.01), family intimacy (β=1.614, P<0.05), emotional expression (β=1.114, P<0.05) were the factors affecting the health belief level of first stroke patients. Conclusions The level of health belief is closely related to family environment. It is suggested that the clinical medical staff should pay attention to the negative emotion and family psychological intervention, provide psychological support for the patients and their families, promote the promotion of their health beliefs, and reduce the rate of recurrence and disability.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the curative effect of clinically equivalent doses of Xuesaitong and ginaton injections on cerebral ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury of rats.Methods Male rats were randomly divided into five groups:normal control group,sham-operation group,model control group,Xuesaitong group and ginaton group.The cerebral ischemia rat model was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).Rats in the Xuesaitong group were given 20 mg·kg-1 of Xuesaitong injection,and rats in the ginaton group were intravenously injected with 7.5 mg· kg-1of ginaton immediately after I/R injury and once daily for 7 days.Rats in the sham-operation group and model control group were given the same volume of 0.9％ sodium chloride solution.The score of ethology,volume of cerebral infarction,mortality,superoxide dismutase (SOD),malondialdehyde (MDA),xanthine oxidase (XOD),nitrogen oxide (NO) and NO synthase (NOS) in seruu were examined.Results Compared with model control group,Xuesaitong and ginaton effectively reduced behavioral score 96 h (P ＜ 0.05),120 h (P＜0.01),144 h (P＜0.01) and 168 h (P＜0.01) after I/R injury,the volume of cerebral infarction 168 h after I/R injury and NO content (P ＜ 0.05).But they had no effects on NOS,SOD,MDA,and XOD contents.Conclusion Curatively injecting Xuesaitong and ginaton can effectively reduce cerebral I/R injury,but no significant difference in curative efficacy is observed between Xuesaitong and ginaton at clinically equivalent doses.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To search for the correlative factors among nurses with leukcopenia who occupationally contacted with chemotherapeutic agents,so as to increase their occupational protecting level.METHODS Totally 1232 nurses who occupationally contacted with chemotherapeutic agents from 24 hospitals were investigated by a stratified sampling method.The factors leading to leukopenia were surveyed and analyzed.RESULTS The leukopeuia was prominently correlated with five factors,namely nurses' protective knowledge,protective manipulation scoring,protective condition,exposure index and kinds of agents.CONCLUSIONS Low occupational protecting level can lead to leukopenia.A supporting system based on the occupational health and safety management must be established to insure the clinical nurses' health level.
