Objective To study application of Chinese general practice assessment questionnaire (GPAQ)consultation version 2.0 in evaluating patients' satisfaction with community health-care service (CHS).Methods First,origihal GPAQ consultation version 2.0 in English was translated into Chinese language by three experts in general practice/family medicine field,then translated it back into English,finally a Chinese version of GPAQ was formed.Ten medical doctors who were on duty on 25 April,2008 at each out-patient clinic from CHS of Daxing,Nancaiyuan,Yongning and Hancunhe were selected randomly as targets for evaluation of service satisfaction.A sample of the first 30 patients(1200 in total)aged more than 16 years who visited the clinic on that day were selected to fill out the Chinese GPAQ consultation version 2.0 to express their satisfaction with the medical doctors they visited,and reliability and validity of the questionnaire was then evaluated.Results Cronbach's alpha ranged 0.734 to 0.813 for each domain of the Chinese version of GPAQ2.0.and cumulated contribution of three common factors with the eigen-value more than one reached 58.722%.Scores of patients' satisfaction withreceptionists,access,continuity,doctor's communication skills andpatient enablement were significantly lower,as compared to those of national bench-mark in the United Kingdom,with t-values of -6.397,-11.729,-6.328,-59.871 and -2.210,and all P＜0.05.respectively.Conclusions The Chinese version of GPAO 2.0 achieves good reliability and modcrate validity,and can be used as an instrument for evaluating patient's satisfaction with quality of CHS in China as further revision in the future studies.

Objective To compare the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment(EVT)transradial approach and transfemoral approach in patients with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in the posterior circulation.Methods Patients with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in the posterior circulation admitted to the Stroke Center of Linyi People's Hospital,Shandong Second Medical University from February 2022 to April 2024 were retrospectively recruited.The baseline and clinical data were collected,including age,sex,past medical history(hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hyperlipidemia,atrial fibrillation,coronary artery disease,myocardial infarction and stroke),smoking,blood pressure at admission,National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score at admission,modified Rankin scale(mRS)score before the onset of stroke,Alberta stroke program early CT score(ASPECTS),whether intravenous thrombolysis was performed,volume of core infarct zone,volume of hypoperfused zone,occlusion location,etiology of stroke,time indexes(including time from onset to door,time from door to arterial puncture,arterial puncture to recanalization,and time from onset to revascularization),anesthesia modality,EVT first-line strategy,number of passes and whether with vascular access conversion.Clinical data included 90-day postoperative mRS scores,postoperative puncture site complications in 24 hours,symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage at 72 hours postoperatively,modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction(mTICI)grade at the last angiography introperative and length of stay.The groups were categorized into transradial(TRA)and transfemoral(TFA)groups according to the final access route for EVT.The baseline and clinical data of the two groups were compared.Results A total of 129 patients underwent EVT with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in the posterior circulation were finally included,including 47 patients in TRA group and 82 patients in TFA group.The differences about sex,age,past medical history,smoking,blood pressure at admission,NIHSS score at admission,mRS score before the onset of the stroke,ASPECTS,whether intravenous thrombolysis was performed,volume of core infarct zone,volume of hypoperfused zone,occlusion location,etiology of stroke,anesthesia modality,EVT first-line strategy,number of passes,mTICI grade at the last angiography introperative and other aspects were not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).The good prognosis rate at 90 d after surgery(53.2％[25/47]vs.48.8％[40/82],P=0.630),distribution of mRS scores at 90d postoperatively(P=0.991),all-cause mortality at 90 days after surgery(27.7％[13/47]vs.28.0％[23/82],P=1.000),rate of good recanalization(mTICI grade≥2b)on intraoperative last angiogram(97.9％[46/47]vs.95.1％[78/82],P=0.436),rate of complication of puncture site(4.3％[2/47]vs.12.2％[10/82],P=0.209)between the two groups were not statistically significant.The time from door to arterial puncture was significantly longer in the TRA group than in the TFA group,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(122.00[95.00,153.00]min vs.105.00[80.25,118.00]min,Z=-2.937,P=0.03);average length of stay in the TFA group was significantly longer than that of the TRA group,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(6.00[4.95,7.05]d vs.7.00[6.95,8.88]d,Z=-2.573,P=0.010).Conclusions Patients who underwent EVT via radial or femoral artery approach with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in the posterior circulation had similar safety and efficacy,and the number of days of hospitalization was shorter via the TRA.However,more large prospective randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to validate the results of this study.
