Objective To investigate the preventive effect of clinical nursing pathway of health education on partum urinary retention.Methods Two hundred and forty primiparas hospitalized in our hospital from September 2012 to February 2013 were randomized equally into the observation group and the control group.The former received health education by clinical nursing pathway and the control group conventional health education.The two groups were compared in terms of incidence of postpartum urinary retention.Results The incidences of postpartum urinary retention in the observation group and the control one were 3.33% and 11.67%,respectively.The difference in the incidence between the groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The clinical nursing pathway of health education may effectively prevent the occurrence of postpartum urinary retention.

Objective To investigate the reliability and validity of a novel hand-held dynamometer, OE-210, for muscles strength of low-er extremities. Methods From March 1st to August 30th, 2016, 38 young adults were tested the muscle strength of quadriceps and ham-strings with OE-210 dynamometer by 2 rators, and were retested by one of the raters three days later. The isokinetic test was also conducted on all the subjects one day afterwards. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of OE-210 test results and the Pearson's correlation coeffi-cient between results of OE-210 and isokinetic test were calculated. Results The ICC of test-retest were 0.718 to 0.924, and the ICC of in-ter-rater were 0.784 to 0.870. The correlation between muscle performance measured with 2 tools were significant (P<0.001), that was light to medium on quadriceps (r=0.270-0.413), and strong on hamstrings (r=0.582-0.668). Conclusion OE-210 dynamometer was reliable for muscle strength measurement on quadriceps and hamstrings, and the conditions for valid application need further research.
