1.Ziprasidone-induced stuttering: a case report
Sichuan Mental Health 2022;35(4):373-375
This paper reported a case of a 25-year-old male schizophrenic patient, who obtained remission from psychotic symptoms during the treatment of olanzapine and trihexylphenidyl, was given ziprasidone treatment additionally due to the occurrence of auditory hallucination, and developed stuttering 4 days later. The stuttering disappeared 2 days following the discontinuation of therapy, and reappeared after reinstitution of ziprasidone therapy, but disappeared again after discontinuation. The dose of olanzapine was increased to 20 mg/d to ensure the stability of psychotic remission. At a follow-up visit 4 months later, the patient’s mental condition was stable and stuttering did not recur, indicating that the stuttering was induced by ziprasidone. This case suggests that the possibility of stuttering as an adverse reaction should be considered in the clinical application of ziprasidone.

Objective:To explore the application effect of family nursing based on Noddings′ caring education theory in children with bronchopneumonia, so as to provide reference for clinical nursing of children with bronchopneumonia.Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted, 120 children with bronchopneumonia admitted to Anqing Municipal Hospital from August 2023 to March 2024 were enrolled as the research objects by convenience sampling method. According to random number table method, they were divided into the control group and the experimental group. The control group was given routine nursing, while the experimental group was given family nursing based on Noddings′ caring education theory on the basis of routine nursing. The symptoms remission (disappearance time of cough and wheezing), length of hospital stay, lesion absorption, compliance of aerosol inhalation, treatment compliance, etc in 2 groups were observed.Results:A total of 60 children with bronchopneumonia were included in the control group, including 37 males and 23 females, aged (5.75 ± 1.09) years old, and 60 cases were included in the experimental group, including 36 males and 24 females, aged (5.65 ± 1.06) years old. The disappearance time of cough and wheezing, and length of hospital stay in the experimental group were (5.98 ± 0.61), (4.31 ± 0.45), (5.50 ± 0.65) d, which were shorter than (6.21 ± 0.63), (4.52 ± 0.46), (6.38 ± 0.89) d in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t = 2.03, 2.53, 6.19, all P<0.05). The lesion absorption rate and compliance of aerosol inhalation in the experimental group were 95.00% (57/60) and 91.67% (55/60), higher than 83.33% (50/60) and 76.67% (46/60) in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.23, 5.07, both P<0.05). The scores of treatment compliance (medication according to time and dosage, moderate exercise, reasonable diet, self-care) in the experimental groups were (4.02 ± 0.41), (3.39 ± 0.37), (3.87 ± 0.48), (3.13 ± 0.37) points, higher than (3.82 ± 0.39), (3.25 ± 0.35), (3.68 ± 0.45), (2.97 ± 0.34) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t value were 2.13-2.74, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Family nursing based on Noddings′ caring education theory is beneficial to alleviate clinical symptoms and medical fear, improve compliance of aerosol inhalation and treatment compliance in children with bronchopneumonia.
