Objective To synthesize antimicrobial bioceramic using chitosan and calcium phosphate cements mixed with ceftriaxone sodium. Methods The bioceramic was synthesized through the hardening of chitosan liquid combined with calcium phosphate cements and cefiriaxone sodium.The released ceftriaxone sodium was studied according to the linear equation between UV-VIS absorbance to concentration.The in vitro bactefiostatic effect of the chosen bioceramic was investigated via the microbiological method.The model of rats'contaminated bone defect were deployed to study the antimicrobial performance of the bioceramic. Results The best synthesis condition was chosen at:0.1g calcium phosphate cements and 10.4 mg ceftriaxone sodium combined with 2.4 ml hardening liquid C.then keeping the mixture at 60℃ and 100%humidity for 24 h.In vitro release of the resulting antimicrobial bioceramic remained stable,while that of ceftriaxone sodium lasted for a week,higher than the minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) of Staphylococcus aureus.As proved by the WBC number and tissue sectioning,a lighter inflammatory response of treatment group was observed as compared with the control group. Conclusion The antimicrobial bioceramic combined with chitosan and ceftriaxone sodium shows promising antimicrobial performance.

Objective:To understand the current situation of nurses in 52 hospitals in China on mastery of knowledge about skin injury in the elderly based on the background of mixed-mode homogenization training.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 1 067 nurses from 52 hospitals in China were selected as the research objects in January 2021. A self-designed questionnaire on knowledge of skin injury in the elderly was used to investigate the nurses through the questionnaire star and univariate analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors. A total of 1 067 questionnaires were distributed and 1 067 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the effective recovery rate was 100%.Results:The knowledge scores of pressure injury, incontinence-associated dermatitis, skin tear and xerosis cutis among 1067 nurses were (95.66±7.37) , (95.65±9.15) , (91.37±15.45) and (87.67±15.91) , respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed that hospital grade was the influencing factor of nurses' knowledge score of pressure injury, skin tear and incontinence-associated dermatitis ( P<0.05) , educational background was the influencing factor of nurses' knowledge score of skin tear ( P<0.05) , professional title was the influencing factor of nurses' knowledge scores of pressure injury, incontinence-associated dermatitis and xerosis cutis ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Hospitals at all levels need to strengthen the theoretical and practical knowledge training for nurses on skin xerosis and skin tear in the elderly, especially for nurses with primary titles and lower education in grassroots hospitals.
