Tinnitus is a common clinical symptom and its occurrence rate is high. It seriously affects life quality of the patients. Scientific researches show that listening some similar and none-repetitive music can relieve tinnitus to some extent. The overall music accorded with self-similarity character by the direct mapping method based on chaos. However, there were often the same tones continuous repeating a few times and tone mutations. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a new method for tinnitus rehabilitation sound synthesis based on pentatonic scale, chaos and musical instrument digital interface (MIDI). Experimental results showed that the tinnitus rehabilitation sounds were not only self-similar and incompletely reduplicate, but also no sudden changes. Thus, it has a referential significance for tinnitus treatment.

Objective To investigate the effect of systematic health education on the ultrasound guided interventional therapy for pa -tients with cysts.Methods Totally 181 patients with cysts who received the ultrasound guided interventional therapy in our hospital ,were randomly divided into observation group and control group .The patients in the observation group received systematic health education ,while patients in control group received convention health education .Results The differences of pain score between two groups were statistical significance(P<0.05).By health education,the patients in the observation group had a deeper knowledge of the operation and became more cooperative(P<0.05).Conclusion Systematic health education could alleviate the pain and improve the psychological indisposition reac -tions of patients,and enhance therapeutic compliance of patients with ultrasound guided interventional therapy .In the meantime,systematic health education could improve the quality of work and enhance the diathesis of paramedic .

Objective The incidence rate of pressure ulcer is high in critical patients and off-loading mattresses and reposi-tioning are known as effective interventions for the prevention of pressure ulcers .However, evidence is lacking for selection of the right type of mattresses and suitable interval of repositioning .This study was to compare the effects of two types of off-loading mattresses with two different repositioning intervals in preventing pressure ulcers in critical patients . Methods According to the design of this ran-domized controlled trial , we made a training plan concerning the participants , methods of intervention and comparison , criteria and methods of observation , and methods of recording , and trained 26 nurses from 7 hospitals .Using non-inferiority design and the method of stratified blocked randomization , we divided 1194 patients with the risk of pressure ulcer into a trial group ( n=596) and a control group ( n=598) , a viscoelastic sponge mattress with every-four-hours repositioning used for the former and an automatic aeration mat-tress with every-two-hours repositioning for the latter , both for 7 successive days .We examined the patients every day , recorded the in-cidence and stages of pressure ulcer , and compared the data obtained between the two groups of patients . Results The total inci-dence rate of pressure ulcer was 1.09%(13/1194), significantly lower in the trial than in the control group (0.34%[2/596] vs 1.84%[11/598], P=0.012). Conclusion A viscoelastic sponge mattress with every-four-hours repositioning is superior to an automatic aeration mattress with every-two-hours repositioning and therefore is preferred to the latter in preventing the incidence of pressure ulcer in critical patients in the ICU .

Objective:To systematically review the qualitative researches on patients′ lived experiences of being mechanically ventilated in intensive care unit.Methods:The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, Ovid, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang database were searched to collect qualitative studies on patients′ lived experiences of being mechanically ventilated in intensive care unit, from October 2009 to October 2019. Two reviewers independently screened the literature against the pre-determined inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracting the data, and evaluated the included studies according to JBI Critical Appraisal Tool for qualitative studies in Australia.Results:A total of fourteen studies were included. Thirty-eight complete results were grouped according to their similarities to form seven categories. These categories led to three synthesized findings: results 1: patients suffered from both physical and mental distress; results 2: they were eager for supports; results 3: patients achieved personal growth through self-adjustment and reflection.Conclusion:Discomfort experience during mechanical ventilation reduces patients′ comfort, and to a certain extent, has negative impacts on their physical or mental health and clinical outcome. As the main caregiver of patients with mechanical ventilation, not only should nurses alleviate patients′ physical distress by strengthening communication but also give them adequate psychological support. Eventually, promote the physical and mental recovery of patients.
