1.A review of medical violence management policy change based on the perspective of punctuated equilibrium theory
Chinese Journal of Health Policy 2017;10(1):14-20
Under the impact of medical and health system reform and focal events in China, the medical vio-lence policy change is characterized by partial discontinuous equilibrium. It gradually evolves from policymaker-based discontinuity to participatory one, from single decision-making field to the collaborative one, and from the ex-cessive protection of unilateral interest to the maintenance of public interest as a core. In the future, if we want to re-alize the effective minimization of medical violence by public policy, the participation of all parties in the policy deci-sion should be strengthened, the focal events should be analyzed as policy issues, and the policy should be clear in order to overcome the negative influence of the inactivity of old policies.

Objective To evaluate effects of different types of gingival flap suture on the quality of life in patients after removal of mandibular third molar. Methods A randomized, controlled clinical trial design was adopted. Sixty-two patients in oral surgery department, Stomatology Hospital of Tianjin Medical University were selected. Patients were required removal of bilateral symmetry impacted mandibular third molars, and enclosed suture (primary suture) was used in one side, open drainage suture (secondary suture) was used in the other side. The postoperative symptom severity scale (PoSSe scale) was used to evaluate the quality of life in patients after removal of mandibular third molar. The evaluation was completed 7 days after surgery, and the scale was compared between two groups. Results A total of 57 cases of clinical data were enrolled in the final analysis. The operative time for primary suture group was (17.7±4.6) min, and the operative time for secondary su?ture group was (16.3 ± 5.1) min, the difference was not statistically significant (t=1.539, P>0.05). The PoSSe score was sig?nificantly higher in primary suture group (26.348 ± 12.414) than that of secondary suture group (21.633 ± 11.382, P<0.05). Conclusion Secondary suture reduces the influence of teeth removal on quality of life in patients through relieving pain and swelling, and which is suitable for clinical application.
