Objective:To investigate the current status of satisfaction with training program and loyalty to the university among professional postgraduate students majoring in clinical medicine, as well as the association between satisfaction with training program and loyalty to the university.Methods:The 2017 National Medical Student Satisfaction Survey Database was used. A total of 1 944 professional postgraduate students in the second or third year, as well as those with delayed graduation, from 59 postgraduate training colleges and universities who participated in clinical internship were selected. SPSS 20.0 software was used for analysis; descriptive analysis was used to describe satisfaction with training program and loyalty to the university; factor analysis was adopted to calculate comprehensive satisfaction score to reduce the number of variables; logistic regression analysis was applied to investigate the association of general information and satisfaction with training program with loyalty to the university.Results:The professional postgraduate students majoring in clinical medicine had a degree of 60.44% of loyalty to the university. Satisfaction with training program reflected low satisfaction at each link of the training program. For every 1-point increase in the comprehensive satisfaction scores of the four links of courses, research training, college support, and practice, the loyalty to the university was increased to 2.11, 1.83, 1.77, and 1.75 times as the original, respectively, of the baseline scores.Conclusion:There is still room for further improvement in the satisfaction with training program and the loyalty to the university among professional postgraduate students majoring in clinical medicine, and the satisfaction with training program is closely associated with the loyalty to the university. Colleges and universities need to take measures for courses, practice, research training, and college support, so as to improve satisfaction and thus enhance loyalty to the university.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of short-term deep sedation strategy in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) after surgery. Methods A perspective, randomized, parallel-group study was conducted. Adult patients with spontaneous ICH and undergoing craniotomy admitted to Daxing Teaching Hospital of Capital Medical University from December 2015 to November 2016 were enrolled. The patients who received surgery were randomly divided into a short-term deep sedation and a slight and middle sedation group. Sufentanil was used as an analgesic drug in all patients and midazolam was used as a sedative after the operation. The patients in the slight and middle sedation group received midazolam 0.05-0.10 mg/kg with a goal of mild sedation [Richmond agitation and sedation scale (RASS) score of -2-1]. The patients in the short-term deep sedation group received midazolam 0.1-0.2 mg/kg with a goal of deep sedation (RASS score of -4 to -3) and a duration of no more than 12 hours. Postoperative sedation, blood pressure changes, laboratory indexes, residual hematoma and clinical outcomes were recorded in two groups. Results During the study, a total of 183 patients with spontaneous ICH were collected, excluding who was older than 65 years, with shock, and with preoperative Glasgow coma score (GCS) of 3. 106 patients were enrolled in this study, and 53 patients were assigned to the short-term deep sedation group and slight and middle sedation group, respectively. In the slight and middle sedation group, 4 patients received reoperation because of repeated hemorrhage and no patient operated repeatedly in the short-term deep sedation group, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (χ2= 4.000, P = 0.045). The number of patients undergoing tracheotomy in the short-term deep sedation group was significantly lower than that in the slight and middle sedation group (9 cases vs. 21 cases,P < 0.05). RASS score within 12 hours after operation of the patients in the short-term deep sedation group was lower than that in slight and middle sedation group [-4 (-4, -2) vs. -2 (-3, -1) at 4 hours, -4 (-4, -2) vs. -1 (-2, 0) at 8 hours,-3 (-4, -2) vs. 0 (-2, 1) at 12 hours, all P < 0.01], sudden restlessness was significantly reduced [times: 1 (0, 1) vs. 3 (2, 3), P < 0.01], and postoperative sedation duration was significantly prolonged [hours: 14.0 (8.3, 20.8) vs. 8.9 (3.4, 15.3), P < 0.05]. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) within 12 hours after operation in the short-term deep sedation group were significantly lower than those of the slight and middle sedation group [SBP (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 136.8±30.5 vs. 149.1±33.5, DBP (mmHg): 85.0 (70.8, 102.3) vs. 89.0 (69.2, 116.7), both P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in the arterial blood gas, routine blood test or coagulation function between the two groups at 24 hours after operation. The volume of residual hematoma at 2, 7 and 14 days after operation in the short-term deep sedation group was significantly decreased as compared with slight and middle sedation group (mL: 16.4±15.6 vs. 38.2±22.2 at 2 days, 9.6±8.7 vs. 20.6±18.6 at 7 days, 1.2±1.0 vs. 4.4±3.6 at 14 days, all P < 0.05), number of deaths in 3 months were significantly less (5 cases vs. 13 cases), and the patients with favorable prognosis were increased significantly (39 cases vs. 12 cases, both P < 0.05). Conclusion The study results showed that short-term deep sedation strategy after surgery can reduce the incidence of adverse events and improve the prognosis of patients with spontaneous ICH, so it is safe and effective.

Objectives? To describe the human resource allocation of ophthalmic nurses in China, and to compare the differences based on the ophthalmic nurse availability among different regions so as to put forward policy recommendations. Methods? We used the latest data of China Ophthalmic Competency Resource Survey in 2015 and China Population and Employment Statistics Yearbook to describe the quantity, education backgrounds and professional titles of ophthalmology nurses in different regions of China. Population-weighted quartiles of the county-level number were defined and used to analyze the differences in education backgrounds and professional titles among different regions and different levels of availability. Results? By the end of 2014, the number of ophthalmic nurses was 3.19 per 100 000. The eastern part had 30% more nurses than the western and the urban area had 285% more than the rural area. The ratio of ophthalmology doctors to ophthalmic nurses is 1∶1.13 while the eastern area had the lowest ratio. Most of the ophthalmic nurses held post-secondary diploma and only entry-level titles. The availability of ophthalmic nurses in the east China was better than any other parts. It was easier to get an ophthalmic nurse in the cities than in rural areas. And the condition got worst in western rural districts. The proportion of nurses with a bachelor's degree went higher with the increase in availability, while this trend reverted with regard to the proportion of senior titled nurses. With the same availability, the quality of human resources in western and rural areas is the worst. Conclusions? The resource allocation of ophthalmic nurses in China has gradually improved, but there are still problems such as regional inequality and large urban-rural gap. The availability analysis can show the inter-regional difference in terms of the quantity of ophthalmic nurses in a more detailed manner, such that the situations in the urban and rural areas are in extremely differentiated states; The quality of ophthalmic nurses in China needs to be further improved, and the quality difference will further aggravate the imbalance of resource allocation.
