Objective To discuss the application of prospective risk nursing measures in reducing the occurrence of postoperative local hematoma at femoral artery puncture site. Methods A total of 605 patients receiving femoral artery puncture for interventional management were collected as the control group , and 322 patients were used as the intervention group. The risk factors causing postoperative local hematoma at femoral artery puncture site in the control group were recorded, and based on which risk estimation survey table was designed. According to risk estimation survey, the prospective intervention measures, including risk assessment, standardization of professional training, individual health education, the improvement of care appliance, etc. were carried out for the patients of the intervention group. The occurrences of postoperative local hematoma at femoral artery puncture site were recorded and the results were compared between the two groups. Results No statistically significant differences in demographic and clinical data existed between the two groups. However, the incidence of hematoma in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group (χ2 = 4.652, P < 0.05), although the difference in the severity of hematoma was not significant between the two groups. Conclusion The use of prospective risk nursing measures can effectively reduce the incidence of postoperative hematoma at femoral artery puncture site.

Objective:
To analyze the changing trends in etiologies of hospitalized patients with liver disease and provide clinical basis for the formulation of medical policy.
Methods:
Patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Infectious Diseases from 2006 to 2014 were selected as the research subjects. Data of patients with liver diseases were retrospectively analyzed to determine the proportion of main causes of infection, the proportion of different viral infections in viral hepatitis, and the changing trends in proportion of hepatitis B in different age groups. Kruskal-Wallis test was used for statistical analysis.
Results:
During 9 consecutive years, the overall proportion of inpatients with liver disease decreased continuously, but the number of patients increased. The top five etiologies of liver diseases were viral hepatitis, drug-induced liver disease, autoimmune liver disease, alcoholic and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The proportion of viral hepatitis decreased gradually, and the proportion of drug-induced liver disease and autoimmune liver disease increased markedly. Among viral hepatitis patients, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and hepatitis E were in the top three, with hepatitis B stabilized at around 70%, and the proportion of hepatitis C showed an upward trend. The hospitalization time of hepatitis B patients was gradually shortened, the difference was statistically significant (
