Objective To improve the operation method of rupture of Achilles tendon for decreasing complication. Methods Total 39cases with closed rupture of Achilles tendon were selected in this study. Short incision was made at achilles tendon wall, reveal and anneal the broken ends, using Kirschner wire and steel-wire to make rectangle frame ,intradermic fixation of fracture away from the broken ends, then sutured ends with rarities and smoothing,functional exercise after 6weeks ankle rest position fixation. Results According to the Arner Lindholm evaluation system,the treatment outcome were excellent in 34 cases ,and good in 5cases. No complication including re-rupture skin ,tendon necrosis and infection were found after operation. Conclusion Repaired closed rupture of Achilles tendon with short incision and rectangle frame, assisted with ankle rest position fixation after operation wasa worthy way for treating closed rupture of a chilles tendon.

Objective:To analyze the classification and influencing factors of post-intensive care syndrome in family members of critically ill children, so as to provide reference for developing targeted intervention strategies.Methods:Using cross-sectional survey methods, the family members of critically ill children from January 2022 to June 2023 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were selected as research objects by convenience sampling method. The general information questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI), Fatigue Assessment Instrument(FAI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HADS), and Impact of Event Scale-Revised(IES-R) were used for investigation, respectively.Results:Finally, 131 family members of critically ill children were included in the present study, 37 males, 94 females, aged 28-67 (39.47 ± 8.55) years. The incidence of PICS-F were 77.9% (102/131), the scores of PSQI, FAI, anxiety, depression and IES-R were (7.95 ± 3.39), (3.42 ± 1.34), (14.02 ± 5.47), (14.10 ± 5.54), (39.14 ± 7.92) points, respectively. The types of PICS-F in respondents were divided into four subtypes: sleep disturbance type were 42 cases accounting for 32.1%, stress disturbance type were 17 cases accounting for 13.0%, PICS-F high risk type were 40 cases accounting for 30.5%, PICS-F low risk type were 32 cases accounting for 24.4%. The length of ICU hospitalization was a common influencing factor for sleep disturbance type ( OR=0.103, 95% CI 0.020-0.520), stress disturbance type ( OR=0.073,95% CI 0.011-0.467), and PICS-F high risk type ( OR=0.115, 95% CI 0.022-0.589), all P<0.05. The per monthly income was a common risk factor for sleep disturbance type ( OR=5.510, 95% CI 1.193-5.445) and PICS-F high risk type ( OR=9.302, 95% CI 1.435-2.306), both P<0.05; the relationship with children was a specific risk factor for sleep disturbance type ( OR=0.083, 95% CI 0.009-0.734, P<0.05); the APACHEⅡscore was a specific risk factor for PICS-F high risk type ( OR=0.091, 95% CI 0.014-0.586, P<0.05). Conclusions:There are four latent profiles of PICS-F in family members of critically ill children, medical staff should establish targeted interventions according to the characteristics of different PICS-F classes.
