Objective To summarize the experience of intraoperative care for the patients undergoing microsurgery via retrosigmoid keyhole approach, so as to improve the treatment effect and minimize complications. Method The clinical records on the intraoperative care of 100 patients undergoing microsurgery via retrosigmoid keyhole approach were retrospectively analyzed. Result Using the keyhole technique and small incision, the cerebellopontine angle lesions were exposed clearly. Moreover, the proper intraoperational cooperation shortened the duration of operation, reduced bleeding and minimized postoperative complications such as cerebrospinal fluid otorrhea, intracranial infection, intracranial hemorrhage, and subcutaneous hydrops. Conclusion Proper operational postures and intraoperative cooperation can make full use of the limited space of the microsurgery via retrosigmoid keyhole approach and ensure the success of the operation.

To improve the effectiveness of nurse-patient communication and build a harmonious nurse-patient relationship, a list of melodrama of the whole nursing process from admission to discharge was designed and demonstrated. This means of training by scenarios demonstration significantly enhanced nurses' awareness and skills of nurse-patient communication with high recognition.

This paper introduces the perioperative nursing of 83 sialolithiasis patients undergoing sialolithectomy by sialoendoscope. The key points of successful nursing care were careful preoperative psychological nursing and equipment preparation, correct and skilled intraoperative cooperation, and early postoperative health instruction. As a result, all the patients underwent the surgery succesfully and recovered well except 3 cases who needed gland removal later.

Making dental impressions and models is a part of daily routine work for dental nurses in the orthodontic department in China. This paper analyzes the common problems encountered in the process of making dental impressions and models, and emphasizes the importance of quality control and supervision during this process. A method of combining real-time monitoring and periodic inspection based on nurse-doctor cooperation was put forward to ensure the quality of dental impressions and models. Firstly, the nurses should be well trained with the instruction of doctors before on duty; Secondly, the head nurse should be responsible for implementing real-time monitoring and periodic inspections to find the problems and take measures in time. Also, the doctors should check the dental impressions and models in time, especially for those models with special demands, and help the nurses to improve their skills constantly.

This paper summarizes the perioperative nursing of 65 patients undergoing eyelid malignant tumor resection combined with primary eyelid reconstruction. The nursing care focused on routine preoperative preparations as well as postoperative care of incision dressing, dressing change, medication administration and monitoring, prevention of infections and health education. All the patients had Ⅰ-phase wound healing and good shape of eyelid repair without postoperative complications.

This paper summarizes the nursing experience of 9 very low birth weight infants with catheter-related infections. Among the 132 very low birth weight infants with PICC,9 cases suffered from catheter-related infections. Three cases showed positive results on the germiculture of catheter tip and blood, two cases showed positive result only on the germiculture of blood, and four cases showed negative results on both germiculture of catheter tip and blood. One infant's parent gave up the treatment and eight cases were cured. It is suggested that closely monitoring the signs of infections and taking effective treatment and nursing care as early as possible were the key points of infection control.

Objective To explore the effect of humidification of oxygen delivered by nasal cannula on the respiratory symptoms. Method A total of 540 patients receiving low-to-mid flow oxygen therapy (<4L/min) by nasal cannula for more than 12 hours were assigned to receive humidified (n=235) or dry (n=305)oxygen. While 226 patients receiving a low-to-mid flow oxygen therapy for more than 24 hours received humidified or dry oxygen respectively. The patients' respiratory symptoms were observed and recorded. Results Dryness over naso-pharyngeal region was the only symptom reported by patients in this study. There was no significant difference on the rate of dryness over naso-pharyngeal region between patients receiving humidified oxygen and patients receiving dry oxygen (P>0.05) either in the same patients when receiving dry and humidified oxygen (P>0.05). Conclusion Routine humidification is not necessary in low-to-mid flow oxygen therapy by nasal cannula.

Objective To explore the observation and nursing on complications of artificial vessel arteriovenous fistula in hemodialysis patients. Methods The targeted treatment and nursing care were implemented according to different complications in 40 hemodialysis patients with artificial vessel arteriovenous fistula. Results A total of 25 complications happened in 13 patients. All the patients were cured without dysfunctions after targeted treatment and nursing care. Conclusion Detecting and dealing with the symptoms of complications of artificial vessel arteriovenous fistula in time is important to prolong the using time of artificial vessel arteriovenous fistula.

Objective To analyze the changes of P wave of intracavitary electrocardiogram (ECC) in the placement of periph erally inserted central venous catheters (PICC), and to explore whether the intracavitary ECG can be used to guide the procedure. Methods PICC was inserted in 62 adult patients under intracavitary ECC-guided technique. The intracavitary ECC were recorded in different parts of vessel access through micro-guidewire. Results The intracavitary ECG extracted through micro-guidewire were accurately recorded in all patients. The amplitudes of P wave were (1.11 ±0.36)mm, (1.12±0.28)mm,(1.56±0.45)mm, (4.03±1.87)mm, (5.90±2.45)mm, (7.90±2.95)mm, (9.87±2.77)mm, (5.00±1.76)mm, (2.50±1.73)mm when PICC tip was located in the axillary, subclavian and brachiocephalic vein, in the superior, middle and inferior SVC, at the SVC-right atrium junction, and in the middle, inferior right atrium,respectively. The amplitude of P wave was 1.14±0.34mm in 10 patients with PICC tip malposition in the internal jugular vein. Conclusions The intracavitary ECG can be extracted with the microguidewire of PICC system. The amplitude of P wave is related to the location of PICC tip, which can be used to guide the PICC insertion and positioning.

Objective To analyze the ostomy patients' demands, resolve the common problems after discharge by telephone consultation, and supplement the content of specialized health education. Methods The data of 256 telephone consultations from 186 patients with ostomy were retrospectively analyzed. Results Most of the consultations came from patients aged from 61 to 80 years old (64.5%) and patients within one year after surgery (85%). The contents focused on information about ostomy products, care of skin around the stoma and leakage of defecation, which accounted to 32.8%,30.1%,24.6%,respectively.The problems were solved by telephone interview in 201 consultations (78.5%). Conclusion Consultation by telephone is useful to find out the demands of discharged ostomy patients, resolve their problems in time and improve their quality of life. It has great significance for improving health education and extensive services of ostomy patients.
