Objective:To understand the status of continuing care needs of patients with cleft lip and palate after discharge, and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:Using convenience sampling method, 401 patients with cleft lip and palate and their nursing families who underwent sequential treatment of cleft lip and palate in Peking university hospital of stomatology from April to August 2021 were selected as the research objects. The general information questionnaire and self-made continuous nursing needs assessment table were used to investigate patients with cleft lip and palate current situation of continuous nursing needs and analyze the influencing factors.Results:The total score of continuing care needs of patients with cleft lip and palate was (91.53±12.07). From high to low, the demand dimensions were health promotion demand, disease self-care demand, doctor-patient communication demand and psychosocial support demand. The results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the mode of payment, the number of operations, the intention of rehabilitation guidance, the mode of continuation service and the expected continuation service cycle were the influential factors for the continuing nursing needs of patients with cleft lip and palate ( R2=0.282, F=27.16, P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients with cleft lip and palate have a high demand for continuing nursing. Individualized and effective continuous nursing intervention measures should be developed according to the needs of patients to promote the rehabilitation of patients.

Objective To explore the association between preoperative, perioperative parameters, especially estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after modified extended Morrow procedure. Methods A total of 300 hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) patients who underwent modified extended Morrow procedure in our hospital from January 2012 to March 2018 were collected. There were 197 (65.67%) males and 103 (34.33%) females with an average age of 43.54±13.81 years. Heart rhythm was continuously monitored during hospitalization. The patients were divided into a POAF group (n=68) and a non-POAF group (n=232). The general data, perioperative parameters and echocardiographic results were collected by consulting medical records for statistical analysis. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors for POAF. Results Overall incidence of POAF during hospitalization was 22.67% (68/300). Compared with patients without POAF, patients with POAF were older, had higher incidence of chest pain and syncope, lower level of preoperative eGFR, higher body mass index and heart function classification (NYHA), larger preoperative left atrial diameter and left ventricular end diastolic diameter, and longer ventilator-assisted time, ICU stay and postoperative hospital stay. Age, heart function classification (NYHA)≥Ⅲ, hypertension, syncope history and eGFR were independent risk factors for POAF. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of eGFR was 0.731 (95%CI 0.677-0.780, P<0.001), and the sensitivity and specificity were 82.4% and 57.8%, respectively. Conclusion Increased age, high preoperative heart function classification (NYHA), hypertension, preoperative syncope history and decreased eGFR are independent risk factors for POAF in HOCM patients who underwent surgical septal myectomy. Preoperative decreased eGFR can moderately predict the occurrence of POAF after modified extended Morrow procedure.
