Objective To investigate the effect of progressive early bed physical activity on blood flow in lower limb of patients on mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods Adult patients with mechanical ventilation ≥ 72 hours admitted to ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from February 22nd to November 30th, 2016 were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group by random number table method. Patients in the two groups were given the same basic treatment, including antibiotics, analgesia and sedation, mechanical ventilation, nutritional support, and routine ICU activities such as maintaining functional position of limbs and raising of bed head. On the basis of those, the experimental group was given early bed physical activity with gradual enhancement of grades Ⅰ-Ⅲ according to the nerve, circulation and respiration situations, such as passive/active exercise of the bicycle, straight leg lifting exercise, etc. The exercise intensity was evaluated with target heart rate, and the exercise was performed for 15-30 minutes at a time, twice a day. The control group was given intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC), 30 minutes in each time, twice a day. Mean blood flow and blood volume were measured before and immediately, 5, 10 and 15 minutes after intervention on the 3rd day. Heart rate and blood pressure were measured at 5 minutes before intervention, during 5 minutes, and 5, 10, 15, 30 minutes after intervention on the 3rd day. Results 214 adult patients were selected, after excluding the patients who died during the intervention or gave up treatment, 160 patients were included in the data analysis, with 81 in the experimental group and 79 in the control group. The mean blood flow velocity and blood volume were increased in both groups, and the mean blood flow velocity and blood flow volume in the experimental group were significantly increased and lasted longer than those in the control group [mean blood flow velocity (mm/s) of the experimental group were 11.92±1.06, 18.19±0.17, 17.24±0.14, 15.48±0.12, 12.68±0.16, and that of the control group were 12.01±1.41, 15.65±0.18, 12.91±0.14, 12.13±0.12, 11.59±0.16, respectively, the time effect was F = 1 043.101, P = 0.000, the intervention effect was F = 151.001, P = 0.000, and the interaction effect between intervention and time was F = 224.830, P = 0.001; the blood volume (mL/min) of the experimental group were 3.39±0.96, 5.59±0.11, 5.16±0.12, 4.19±0.10. 3.35±0.09, and that of the control group were 3.28±0.82, 4.04±0.11, 3.40±0.12, 3.02±0.10, 3.00±0.10, respectively, the time effect was F = 680.405, P = 0.000, the intervention effect was F = 125.359, P = 0.000, and the interaction effect between intervention and time was F = 79.631, P = 0.012]. The heart rate and blood pressure of the two groups of patients in the course of intervention were increased first, then decreased and then slowly recovered to the change trend before intervention, but the index of the experimental group fluctuated greatly [heart rate (bpm) of the experimental group were 97.64±1.50, 113.91±1.36, 105.96±1.34, 98.52±1.48, 97.84±1.46, 97.54±1.48, and that of the control group were 97.03±1.57, 105.39±1.38, 96.76±1.35, 96.54±1.50, 97.22±1.48, 96.53±1.49, respectively, the time effect was F = 235.030, P = 0.000, the intervention effect was F = 39.473, P = 0.000, and the interaction effect between intervention and time was F = 3.494, P = 0.063; the systolic blood pressure (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) of the experimental group were 118.57±1.06, 133.05±1.01, 120.44±1.10, 117.78±1.07, 117.65±1.01, 118.14±1.00, and that of the control group were 118.10±1.08, 126.68±1.02, 118.23±1.11, 117.48±1.08, 118.04±1.03, 118.90±1.10, respectively, the time effect was F = 336.604, P = 0.000, the intervention effect was F = 26.350, P = 0.000, and the interaction effect between intervention and time was F = 0.948, P = 0.332; the diastolic blood pressure (mmHg) of the experimental group were 68.07±0.72, 72.79±0.73, 70.68±0.74, 69.30±0.72, 68.73±0.74, 67.80±0.73, and that of the control group were 68.51±0.73, 72.03±0.74, 70.05±0.75, 69.10±0.73, 68.41±0.75, 67.85±0.74, respectively, the time effect was F = 286.390, P = 0.000, the intervention effect was F = 4.812, P = 0.000, and the interactive effect between intervention and time was F = 0.055, P = 0.815]. Conclusions The effects of progressive early bed physical activity on the mean blood flow velocity and blood volume of lower limbs in ICU patients with mechanical ventilation are better than those of IPC. Although the fluctuation of heart rate and blood pressure is large, it does not cause any harm to the patients.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of undergraduate nursing students′professional attitude in Xinjiang, so as to provide references for the educational guidance and decision-making management of nursing students′ professional attitude. Methods A questionnaire survey about professional attitude was conducted among 218 students of 2010-2013 full-time nursing students from Xinjiang Medical University and Shihezi University by convenience sampling method. Results The average score of nursing students′professional attitude was (3.80±0.67), which was in the “general” level. Univariate analysis showed that the professional attitude scores were significantly different among students with different gender, different choice, different parents′ education level, as well as whether they belong to one-child family ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclusions The professional attitude score of undergraduate nursing students was low. Nursing educators and administrators should implement targeted professional education, correct nursing students′ professional attitude, and keep the nursing team stable. Meanwhile, we also should retain talents and make good use of talents, so that to promote the sustainable development of nursing career.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of early off-bed mobility in patients with mechanical ventilation and its effect on delirium and the duration of delirium in the intensive care unit (ICU).Methods:Adult patients who were admitted to ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from January 1st to December 31st 2020 for invasive mechanical ventilation and no early activity contraindication were selected. The patients were randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group conducted early off-bed mobility, such as using the shift machine off-bed sitting and walking aids to assist standing and walking, and the off-bed mobility is based on patient tolerance. The control group was given early bed activities, including conducting the joint range activity, limb movement, bed sitting, upper limb elastic belt movement, and lower limb cycling, once a day. Each joint moved 15-20 times, a total of 30 minutes. Both groups were treated with anti-infection, mechanical ventilation, analgesia and sedation, and nutrition therapy. After intervention, confusion assessment method for the ICU (CAM-ICU) was used to assess the onset and duration of delirium, physical restraint rate and duration of physical restraint, mechanical ventilation time, and the length of ICU stay.Results:After excluding patients who died or gave up treatment during the intervention period, 266 patients were included, with 133 patients in the experimental group and 133 patients in the control group. There were no significant differences in gender, age, diagnosis, degree of illness, sedative drugs between the two groups. The incidence of the delirium in intervention group was significantly lower than that in control group [26.3% (35/133) vs. 42.1% (56/133), χ 2 = 7.366, P = 0.007], the duration of delirium was shorter than that in control group (hours: 11.26±4.11 vs. 17.00±3.29, t = -4.157, P = 0.000), the rate of physical restraint was lower than that in control group [19.5% (26/133) vs. 45.1% (60/133), χ 2 = 19.864, P = 0.000], the duration of physical restraint was shorter than that in control group (hours: 9.71±4.07 vs. 13.55±7.40, t = -5.234, P = 0.000), the mechanical ventilation time and the length of ICU stay were shorter than those in control group [mechanical ventilation time (hours) : 106.23±42.25 vs. 133.10±41.88, t = -3.363, P = 0.001; length of ICU stay (days) : 8.35±6.21 vs. 13.25±9.98, t =-4.190, P = 0.000]. Conclusions:Early off-bed mobility can reduce physical restraint rate and the incidence of delirium, and thus can accelerate rehabilitation in critically ill patients. Early off-bed mobility is safe and effective for patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU.

Objective:To summarize the arrhythmic characteristics, clinical course, and prognosis of chaotic atrial tachycardia (CAT) in neonates.Methods:The researchers retrospectively analyzed and described the clinical data obtained from 30 neonates diagnosed with CAT and treated at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Hubei Province from January 2019 to August 2022. Prenatal and postnatal data were collected to analyze the electrocardiogram characteristics, clinical manifestations, treatment, and prognosis of CAT. Statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square (or Fisher's exact) tests. Results:(1) Among the 30 newborns with CAT, 19 were male infants (63%). The diagnosis age [ M(min-max)] was 11 days (1-28 days). Among them, 20 (67%) were born with full term, six (20%) had low birth weight, and 15 (50%) had abnormal cardiac structures. (2) The incidence of postnatal complex arrhythmias (coexisting with atrial fibrillation, flutter, supraventricular tachycardia, etc.) in fetuses with abnormalities, including fetal arrhythmias and fetal distress, was higher than those without abnormalities (9/14 vs 3/16, Fisher's exact, P=0.024). The median maximum atrial rate in incessant-type CAT patients (8 cases) was higher than that of paroxysmal-type CAT patients (22 cases) [400 bpm (300-700 bpm) vs 300 bpm (200-460 bpm), Z=－2.41, P=0.02]. There was no statistically significant difference in the maximum ventricular rate between the two groups [250 bpm (190-350 bpm) vs 270 bpm (180-350 bpm), Z=－0.26, P=0.800]. There were 19 cases (63%) complicated with diseases that seriously affected the respiratory or circulatory system, or infectious diseases. (3) Antiarrhythmic drugs were used in 23 cases (77%), including six cases treated with one drug, 12 cases with two drugs, and five cases with more than two drugs, mainly propafenone (20 cases, 67%). Seven cases (23%) with no complex arrhythmia turned to normal rhythm spontaneously without using antiarrhythmic drugs. Among all cases, 16 (53%) achieved clinical cures after complete cardioversion during hospitalization, while 14 cases (47%) were not cured. (4) The children who were cured during hospitalization were followed up for 1.5 months (2 weeks to 8 months) after discharge, and no recurrence was observed, indicating good growth and development. Untreated patients were followed up for 1.9 years (3.5 months to 4.4 years), of which seven cases completely recovered within six months, and the other seven cases continued to recur. However, no adverse outcomes, such as death, occurred. Conclusions:The overall prognosis of neonatal CAT is favorable. A history of fetal arrhythmia and intrauterine distress may increase the risk of CAT. Active drug treatment should be considered for children of CAT with complex arrhythmia.
