Objective To understand the current cognition status of stroke rehabilitation nursing knowledge in young nurses of the department of neurology.Methods Self-designed questionnaires were used for investigating 273 young nurses between 20 and 30 years old of the department of neurology of 4 tertiary hospitals in Zhengzhou.Results The current status of stroke rehabilitation nursing knowledge of the nurses surveyed was generally at a low level.There were no significant differences among nurses with different education degrees,professional titles and whether their relatives suffered from stroke.However,there were significant differences among nurses with different professional lives and whether the department carried out rehabilitation care.Conclusions Nursing educators and managers need to find a new way to improve the level of stroke rehabilitation nursing knowledge of the young nurses.

Objective To investigate effects of different ventilation methods during pulmonary surfactant(PS) administration on cerebral oxygen metabolism in preterm infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.Methods Newborns met the inclusion criteria were enrolled into this study,and they were randomly divided into manual group and mechanical group.During PS administration,the proximal end of the tracheal tube was connected to a bag valve mask device in the manual group or a mechanical ventilator in the mechanical group.Brain near infrared spectroscopy monitoring was carried out to detect the cerebral oxygen saturation(ScO2),and the mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) was simultaneously recorded.Results For all 49 preterm infants,PS was administered to preterm infants with severe respiratory distress syndrome treated with mechanical ventilation,including 24 cases of manual ventilation and 25 cases of mechanical ventilation.The left cerebral ScO2 and correlation coefficient of ScO2 and MABP(rScO2-MABP) showed no difference in both groups before PS administration.During administration,ScO2 dramatically increased in both groups [manual group:(85.88 ± 5.54) ％ vs.(77.31 ± 5.40) ％,t =5.521,P =0.000;mechanical group:(83.88 ± 3.18) ％ vs.(76.53 ±4.38)％,t =6.741,P =0.000],and gradually decreased after administration,the level of ScO2 didn't return to the baseline till the 2nd 5 minutes after PS administration [manual group:(79.25 ± 3.02) ％ vs.(77.31 ± 5.40) ％,t =1.560,P =0.220;mechanical group:(78.59 ± 3.45) ％ vs.(76.53 ± 4.38) ％,t =1.832,P =0.074].The same trend of ScO2 change rate was shown simultaneously in both groups.The rScO2-MABP markedly increased during administration in both groups (manual group:2.34 ±0.16 vs.1.86 ±0.21,t =9.022,P =0.000;mechanical group:2.12 ± 0.15 vs.1.87 ±0.21,t =4.810,P =0.000).The rScO2-MABt,in mechanical group rapidly decreased to baseline during the 1st5 minutes (1.84 ± 0.18 vs.1.87 ± 0.21,t =0.538,P =0.635) but went back to baseline in manual group during the 2nd 5 minutes(1.84 ±0.19 vs.1.86-0.21,t =0.350,P =0.809).Change rates of rScO2-MABP were markedly higher in manual group than those in mechanical group during the 1 st 5 minutes (1.15 ± 0.13 vs.1.00 ± 0.15,t =4.943,P =0.000).Conclusions ScO2 could be affected transiently by PS administration with different methods of ventilation.The effect on cerebral autoregulation in mechanical group is shorter than that in manual group.

Objective To observe the changes of abdominal oxygen saturation in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI)with feeding intolerance (FI)within 1 4 days after birth monitored by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).Methods VLBWI fitting entry criteria were enrolled into this study.NIRS monitoring was carried out to detect cerebral oxygen saturation (ScO2 )and abdominal oxygen saturation (SsO2 ).Data were analyzed between FI infants and feeding tolerance (FT)infants.FI was defined as follows:gastric residual of more than 50% of the previous feeding volume;emesis or abdominal distention or both;decrease,delay or discontinuation of enteral feedings. Results 93 VLBWI were enrolled.52 cases(55.91 %)presented with FI,including 29 cases(31 .1 9%)of gastric residual increasing and 23 cases(24.73%)of emesis with or without abdominal distention within 1 4 days after birth. The levels of SsO2 and SsO2 /ScO2 showed no differences in infants with FT and with FI within 24h after birth (P >0.05).The change rates of the median of SsO2 and SsO2 /ScO2 in FT infants were similar during 1 4 days (P >0.05).While both the change rates of SsO2 and SsO2 /ScO2 were markedly decreased 1 day before and the day of FI (P <0.01 ).The decreasing degree of SsO2 was similar between infants with gastric residual increasing and infants with emesis with or without abdominal distention[(1 6.2 ±5.1 )vs (1 7.4 ±3.6)%,t =0.733,P =0.476]. Conclusion Abdominal oxygen saturation measured by NIRS may be a useful method for infants adjusting the feeding plan.

Objective To evaluate the predictive effect of Braden scale for the risk of development of pressure ulcers (PU) in the department of neurology bedridden patients and to explore subgroup preventive measures. Methods 400 cases newly hospitalized bedridden patients in the department of neurology were collected with no pressure ulcers at the first evaluation and pressure ulcer risk was continuously predicted by a Braden scale skin assessment. The high-risk, middle-risk and low-risk groups were randomized into the experimental group and the control group respectively. Routine preventive measures were taken for the control group while the air fluidized bed for the high-risk group, the sponge mattress for the middle-riskgroup, and turning the body over every 4 hours for low-risk group. Other preventive procedures were undertaken simultaneously in beth the experimental and the control groups. Results The area under the ROC curve (AUC)was 0.771 and 0.828 at the first and last time Braden scale scores respectively. Such vMues as sensitiveness, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value were found in higher level,when the diagnosis value was 17. There was no significant difference of incidence rate of the subgroup pressure ulcers between the high-risk, middle-risk, low-risk groups compared to the control group. Conclusions The effect of predicting pressure ulcer risk for bedridden patients in the department of neurology with Braden scale was fairly good, while the score 17 as the diagnosis value was ideal. The air fluidized bed for the high-risk group and the sponge mattress for the middle-risk group resulted in no significant decrease of incidence rate of the pressure ulcer, while taming over the patients' body every 4 hours for low-risk groups showed acceptable and therefore saving medical resources.
