Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2015;(32):2435-2438
Objective To evaluate the effects of aerobic combined strength and balance exercise on cognitive function and satisfaction in patients with cognitive impairment no dementia. Methods Four hundred and twenty patients with cognitive impairment no dementia were divided into control group (200 cases) and experimental group (220 cases) by random digits table method. The control group received general health education and rehabilitation training. The experimental group received aerobic combined strength and balance exercise. The patients were assessed with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) to evaluate their cognition before training, as well as after training. And the patients′satisfaction with the questionnaire was evaluated. Results The total scores of MoCA, scores of name, attention, language, memory and directionafter training were (23.47 ±2.38), (2.77 ±0.42), (5.09 ±0.86), (2.50 ±0.65), (3.42 ±0.68), (5.03 ± 0.10) points in the experimental group, and (21.20±2.55), (2.31±0.76), (4.71±1.10), (2.35±0.70), (2.23±0.81), (4.48±0.96) points in the control group, and there were significant differences, P<0.05. There were no significant differences in the space and abstract thinking between experimental group and control group:(3.61±0.91) points vs. (3.45±1.09) points, (1.83±0.76 ) points vs. (1.72±0.52) points, P>0.05. The scores of satisfaction in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group:(49.33 ±1.57) points vs. ( 48.20 ±2.14) points, P<0.01. Conclusion The application of aerobic combined strength and balance exercise could improve the cognitive function and patients′satisfaction.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of the midazolam sedation based on remifentanil analgesia on the occurrence of delirium in critically ill patients in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods A single-center prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. 140 consecutive critically ill patients admitted to ICU of Peking University People's Hospital, undergoing mechanical ventilation longer than 24 hours, with the need of sedation, from February 2014 to January 2015 were enrolled. They were randomly divided into two groups by computer generated random numbers table, eachn = 70. The patients in observation group received midazolam 1μg·kg-1·min-1 for sedation, and 1 mg/mL remifentanil for analgesia with 0.05 mg/kg intravenous bolus, then continuous infusion of 0.02-0.10 mg·kg-1·h-1. The patients in control group received midazolam for sedation only. The data were recorded as follows: the main indices for observation included the occurrence of delirium and its duration; the second item for observation was consumption of drug for sedation, followed by the mean arterial pressure (MAP) before and after sedation, the time of wake-up, duration of mechanical ventilation, the length of ICU stay, and 28-day fatality rate. The 28-day survival was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curve.Results The dosage of remifentanil used in observation group was (98.6±24.9) mg/d, the dosage of midazolam was significantly lower than that of the control group (mg/d: 160.6±33.3 vs. 178.9±43.4, t = 2.829,P = 0.005), the incidence of delirium was obviously lower than that of the control group [22.9% (16/70) vs. 57.1% (40/70),χ2 = 15.700,P< 0.001], and the time of delirium was slightly shorter than that of the control group (hours: 162.9±78.0 vs. 194.8±117.3,t = 0.947,P = 0.348). Among the patients with delirium, the dosage of dexmedetomidine used in observation group was significantly less than that of the control group (mg/d: 0.54±0.11 vs. 0.64±0.14,t = 2.112,P = 0.041). The MAP before sedation was similar as the MAP after sedation in both groups, and there was no significant difference between observation group and control group [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), before treatment: 84.7±16.2 vs. 89.5±37.7, after treatment: 82.3±10.7 vs. 80.8±13.9, bothP> 0.05]. There was no significant difference in the time of waking-up between observation group and control group (hours: 2.3±0.9 vs. 2.4±0.8,t = 0.487,P = 0.627). The duration of mechanical ventilation (hours: 143.4±138.3 vs. 163.9±158.9, t = 0.812,P = 0.418), the length of ICU stay (days: 8.8±7.7 vs. 10.0±7.8,t = 0.917,P = 0.361) and 28-day fatality rate [11.4% (8/70) vs. 20.0% (14/70),χ2 = 1.941,P = 0.245] in observation group were slightly lower than those of the control group without significant difference. Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the cumulative 28-day survival rate in observation group was slightly higher than that of control group (χ2 = 1.647,P = 0.199). ConclusionAnalgesia based on sedation may reduce the occurrence of delirium and its severity, furthermore, even if delirium occurs, it may be less severe.

Objective To observe the factors affecting inadequate ST-segment resolution in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction after emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods The patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing emergency PCI were enrolled for study. According to the ratio of ST-segment resolution, 186 cases were divided into inadequate ST-segment resolution group (54 cases) and relatively adequate ST-segment resolution (132 cases). Clinical data of two groups were compared. The single factor and multiple Logistic regression analysis were performed to determine the factors influencing inadequate ST-segment resolution. Results Pre-infarction angina was protective factor of inadequate ST-segment resolution after emergency PCI (OR=0.361, 95%CI 0.131-0.994, P<0.05). Anterior myocardial infarction, attack-to-balloon time, Killip classification and white blood cell counts were risk factors of inadequate ST-segment resolution (OR=2.389, 95%CI 1.194-4.781;OR=1.655, 95% CI 1.082-2.532; OR=1.319, 95% CI 1.026-1.695; OR=1.184, 95% CI 1.004-1.396, P<0.05). Conclusions Patients with pre-infarction angina could reduce the risk of inadequate ST-segment resolution after PCI. Patients with anterior myocardial infarction,long attack-to-balloon time, Killip classification≥2 and high blood cell counts could increase the risk of inadequate ST-segment resolution, and earlier and more active clinical intervention should be taken.

Objective To assess whether FICE or IC is more effective at detecting colonic diseases.Method We searched PubMed, CINAHL, CQVIP and the Cochrane Library databases for relevant papers published between January 2008 and August 2013 using the following keywords: lfexible spectral imaging color enhancement, indigo carmine, colonoscope, colonic lesions, colon tumor and chromoendoscopy. We included eight articles, and all data were subdivided for analysis.Results We used odds ratios (OR^s) with 95 % conifdence intervals (CIs) to assess correlations between the detection methods and detection rates. The detection rates did not signiifcantly differ between FICE and IC for colonic tumor lesions (OR^ = 0.90, 95 % CI: 0.76~1.08,P = 0.255), non-tumor lesions (OR^ = 1.09, 95 % CI: 0.92~1.30,P = 0.302), adenomas (OR^ = 0.87, 95 % CI: 0.72~1.07,P = 0.188), non-neoplastic polyps (OR^ = 0.84, 95 % CI: 0.67~1.06,P = 0.146), lfat lesions (OR^ = 0.87, 95 % CI: 0.71~1.08,P = 0.203), protruded lesions (OR^= 1.23, 95 % CI: 0.93 ~ 1.64,P = 0.153), right colon lesions (OR^ = 0.83, 95 % CI: 0.60 ~ 1.14,P =0.251), transverse colon lesions (OR^ = 0.71, 95 % CI: 0.48~1.05,P = 0.086), or left colon lesions (OR^ = 1.35, 95 % CI: 1.01 ~ 1.80,P = 0.045).Conclusions There were no signiifcant differences in the rate of colonic lesion detection between FICE and IC except the left colon. Therefore, providers should choose a suitable inspection method based on the resources of the hospital.
