Objective To investigate the effects of occupational therapy based on International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) on activities of daily living of patients with hemiplegia after stroke. Methods From May to November, 2013, 60 patients with hemiplegia after stroke were randomly divided into observation group (n=30) and control group (n=30). Both groups received routine treatment, while the control group received routine occupational therapy and the observation group received occupational therapy based on ICF. They were assessed with modified Barthel Index before and 40 days after treatment. Results The scores of items of MBI improved after treatment in both groups (t>14.86, P<0.001), and improved more in the observation group than in the control group (t>18.65, P<0.001). Conclusion The occupational therapy based on ICF can further improve the activities of daily living of patients with hemiplegia after stroke.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of retention enema with rhubarb for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) with intestine paralysis.MethodsTotally 60 patients with SAP since last five years were included,and then they were randomly divided into control group and treatment group with 30 patients in each group.Patients in control group received routine treatment of SAP,including fasting,gastrointestinal decompression,antibiotics,inhibition of pancreatic secretion,inhibition of SIRS and organ support.Patients in treatment group received additional retention-enema with rhubarb (200mL soak solution by 100g rhubarb),once daily until the recovery of bowel function.The bladder pressure ( the 1,2,5 and 6 days after admission)was evaluated,and APACHE Ⅱ score was determined.The recovery of bowel function ( the bowel sounds,the flatus and defecation of intestinal tract),SIRS recovery time,hospital stay,and the mortality were observed.ResultsAt the 5 and 6 days after admission,the bladder pressure and APACHE Ⅱ score in treatment group were significantly lower than those in control group [ (21.9 ±9.0)cmH2O vs (25.3 ±9.5)cmH2O,( 16.5 ±7.5)cmH2O vs (20.6 ±7.7)cmH2O,1 cmH2O =0.098 kPa; (9.8 ±3.8) vs (12.5 ±3.6),(9.2 ±2.4)vs ( 11.2 ± 2.5 ),P ＜ 0.05 ) ].The recovery time of bowel function and SIRS recovery time,hospital stay,and the mortality in treatment group were ( 126.8 ± 28.2 ) h,( 131.2 ± 29.6) h,( 25.6 ± 6.2) d and 16.7 ％,and the recovery time of bowel function and SIRS recovery time,hospital stay were significantly lower than those in control group [ ( 169.9 ± 53.4 ) h,( 160.4 ± 30.4) h,( 33.2 ± 6.4) d,P ＜ 0.05 ).The mortality was reduced,but the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant ( 26.7％,P ＞ 0.05 ).ConclusionsThe retention-enema with rhubarb can accelerate the recovery time of bowel function of SAP patients and reduce the hospital stay.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation combined with caffeine on the prevention and treatment of premature infants with extubation failure.Methods Totally 50 infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) with gestational age less than 32 weeks were divided into control group (nasal continuous airway positive pressure ventilationplus aminophylline treatment) and observation group (nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation combined with caffeine treatment).Clinical effect was compared between two groups.Results The incidence rate of complications in the observation group was 16％,which was significantly lower than 32％ in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in blood gas indexes between the two groups after treatment of one hour,and the blood gas indexes after treatment of 12 hours in the observation group were significantly better than the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation combined with caffeine can significantly improve the blood gas indexes and reduce the incidence rate of complications in premature infants with extubation failure.
