Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of discharge planning in patients after total laryngectomy. Methods One hundred and four patients were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group, there were 52 cases in each group. The patients in the control group were received routine nursing, while the patients in the intervention group were received discharge planning based on routine nursing. The patients'days of hospitalization, scores of the Exercise of Self-care Agency Scale (ESCA) at discharge and 4 weeks after discharge, scores of University of Washington Quality of Life Questionnaire (UW-QOL) at 4 weeks after discharge and re-admission rate were compared between the two groups. Results The ESCA scores in the intervention group at discharge (108.62 ± 11.23) and 4 weeks after discharge (116.35 ± 12.08) were significantly higher than those of the control group at discharge (96.16±10.34) and 4 weeks after discharge (105.20±10.76) respectively (t=5.886, 4.970, P<0.05), and the UW-QOL score in the intervention group (810.56±98.25) was significantly higher than that of the control group (687.32±96.74) at 4 weeks after discharge (t=6.445, P<0.05). No significant difference in the days of hospitalization was found between the intervention group (15.27 ± 3.33) and the control group (16.60 ± 3.97) (P>0.05). The re-admission rate in the intervention group (2/52,3.85%) was significantly lower than that of the control group (8/52,15.38%) (χ2=3.983, P<0.05). Conclusions Discharge planning can improve the ability of self-care and quality of life in patients after total laryngectomy, and reduce the re-admission to hospital.

Objective To investigate the benefits and risks of stress ulcer prevention (SUP) using proton pump inhibitors (PPI) for critical patients. Methods The clinical data of adult critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients who were treated with PPI for SUP within the first 48 hours after ICU admission were enrolled in the SUP group. Those who not received PPI were enrolled in the control group. A one-to-one propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to control for potential biases. The gender, age, underlying diseases, main diagnosis of ICU, drug use before ICU admission, sequential organ failure score (SOFA) at ICU admission, risk factors of stress ulcer (SU) and PPI usage were recorded. The end point was the incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding, hospital acquired pneumonia, Clostridium difficile infection and 30-day mortality. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted, and survival analysis was performed using the log-rank test. Results 1 972 critical patients (788 in the SUP group and 1 184 in the control group) were enrolled, and each group enrolled 358 patients after PSM. Prior to PSM, compared with the control group, the SUP group had older patients, more underlying diseases, higher proportion of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), acute cerebrovascular disease, acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) and poisoning in main diagnosis of ICU, more serious illness, and more risk factors of SU, indicating that ICU physicians were more likely to prescribe SUP for these patients. The incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding in the SUP group was significantly lower than that in the control group [1.8% (14/788) vs. 3.7% (44/1 184), P < 0.05], while the incidence of hospital acquired pneumonia and 30-day mortality were significantly higher than those in the control group [6.6% (52/788) vs. 3.5% (42/1 184), 17.9% (141/788) vs. 13.1% (155/1 184), both P < 0.01]. There was no significant difference in the incidence of Clostridium difficile infection between the SUP group and the control group [2.9% (23/788) vs. 1.8% (21/1 184), P >0.05]. After the propensity scores for age, underlying diseases, severity of illness and SU risk factors were matched, there was no significant difference in the incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding or 30-day mortality between the SUP group and the control group [2.2% (8/358) vs. 3.4% (12/358), 15.9% (57/358) vs. 13.7% (49/358), both P > 0.05], but the incidence of hospital acquired pneumonia in the SUP group was still significantly higher than that in the control group [6.7% (24/358) vs. 3.1% (11/358), P < 0.05]. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the 30-day cumulative survival rate of the SUP group was significantly lower than that of the control group before the PSM (log-rank test: χ2 = 9.224, P = 0.002). There was no significant difference in the 30-day cumulative survival rate between the two groups after PSM (log-rank test: χ2 = 0.773, P = 0.379). Conclusion For critical patients, the use of PPI for SUP could not significantly reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding and mortality, but increase the risk of hospital acquired pneumonia.

Objective To observe the effects of homemade head and neck fixation pillow in patients with oral and maxillofacial free flap transplantation. Methods Totally 114 patients who needed head and neck fixation after oral and maxillofacial free flap transplantation were divided into the observation group (58 cases) and the control group (56 cases) based on the admitted consequence. Besides the routine treatment and nursing measures, the observation group received head and neck fixation with homemade head and neck fixation pillow, while the control group received traditional fixation with sandbags. The patients′ comfortable degree, compliance, occipital skin condition and the nurses′evaluation of clinical application were investigated. Results The degree of comfort were (2.93 ± 1.28) points in the observation group and (4.96±1.25) points in the control group, respectively. The comfortable degree was higher in the observation group than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (t=-8.569,P<0.05). There were 43 patients with complete compliance, 15 with partial compliance, and 0 with no compliance in the observation group respectively, while 18 with complete compliance, 35 with partial compliance, and 3 with no compliance in the control group respectively. The compliance was better in the observation group than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). None of the patients in the observation group had pressure ulcer, while 3 patients in the control group had stageⅠpressure ulcer. 96.9%of the nurses considered the homemade head and neck fixation pillow was easy to operate. 100.0%of the nurses considered the homemade headand neck fixation pillow could immobilize the patient′s head and neck effectively. Conclusion The homemade head and neck fixation pillow is easy to operate and can effectively immobilize the patient′s head and neck, protect the patient′s occipital skin, as well as improve patient′s comfort and compliance.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of Shenfu injection in preventing septic cardiomyopathy (SIC) in septic patients.Methods:From June 2022 to January 2023, patients with sepsis or septic shock who did not develop SIC were randomly divided into treatment group and control group according to the ratio of 1:1. In the treatment group, Shenfu injection (50 mL) was pumped intravenously once every 12 hours for 5 days. In the control group, 50 mL of normal saline was pumped intravenously once every 12 hours, and the course of treatment was 5 days. The primary end point was the incidence of SIC in the first 5 days. The secondary end points were the application time of vasoactive drugs, fluid balance in the previous week, hospitalization time in ICU, total ventilation time and 28-day mortality.Results:112 patients were randomly divided into two groups. Seven patients in the treatment group were excluded twice, and finally 49 patients were included in the analysis, while six patients in the control group were excluded twice and 50 patients included in the analysis. The total incidence of SIC in the treatment group within 5 days was significantly lower than that in the control group (42.9% vs. 64.0%, P = 0.035). Among them, the left ventricular systolic dysfunction in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group (24.5% vs 52.0%, P=0.005), and there was no significant difference in the incidence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction between the two groups. The incidence of right ventricular dysfunction in the control group was 28.0%, which was significantly higher than 10.2% in the treatment group ( P = 0.025). The duration of using vasoconstrictors in the treatment group was 75(48, 97) hours, which was significantly lower than 97(66, 28) hours in the control group ( P = 0.039). The duration of inotropic drugs use in the treatment group was 32(18, 49) h, which was also significantly shorter than 44(25, 61) h in the control group ( P=0.046). The fluid balance of the control group in the first week was (1 260±850) mL, which was significantly higher than (450±520) mL in the treatment group ( P=0.008). There was no statistical difference in ICU stay, total ventilation time and 28-day mortality between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:Early application of Shenfu injection can significantly reduce the incidence of SIC, accompanied by less use of vasoactive drugs and positive fluid balance, which has a good clinical application prospect.
