Objective To discuss the influence of health education pathway on detaining time of thoracic drainage tube and standardize the nursing procedure for postoperative patients.Methods Forty five patients after thoracotomy from March to December in 2006 were set as the control group.Fifty patients of the same kind from January to September in 2007 were named the test group.The control group received conventional nursing education.The test group received health education on the day of operation,the first,second,third and fourth day after operation from specified nurses according to health education pathway.The contents included psychological nursing,pain management,respiratory function and physical training and enhancement of drainage efficacy.The average indwelling time of thoracic drainage tube was recorded.Results The average indwelling time of thoracic drainage tube in the test group and the control group was(74.40±8.88)h and(91.68±10.08)h respectively,which showed statistical difference,P＜0.01.Conclusions Application of health education pathway effectively shortened indwelling time of thoracic drainage tube as well as reduced pain and medical costs of patients.

To improve the diagnostic level of CT and MRI in intracranial angioreticuloma. 75 cases of intracranial angioreticuloma were examined by CT, and 19 of them were re examined with MRI. The tumor was located in the cerebellum in 67, frontal lobe in 2, temporal lobe in 1, cerebellum with involvement of medulla, great occipital foramen, vertebral canal, spinal cord and cerebropontial angle in 1, respectively. CT displayed cystic low density accompanied by tumor wall nodules (midcystic tumor) in 35, cystic low density in 18, circular cystic wall in 11, parenchymatous high density in 4, and mixed density in 6. Long T 1 and T 2 signals with tumor wall nodules were displayed in MRI in all of 12 patients. Postoperative pathology: 47 were cystic tumors with tumor wall nodules in the size of 0 1～3 0cm in diameter. The tumor was solitary in 71 cases, and multiple is 3, and the mixed tumor of glioblastoma multiforme and multiple angioreticuloma was located in the temporal lobe in 1 patient, which was rare. The tumor should be diagnosed as angioreticuloma when it was located in the cerebellar hemisphere or vermis without the feature of midcystic tumor or parenchymatous tumor in CT and MRI profiles, with the features of obvious reinforcement or paramagnetic vascular empty in tumor, and a short history.

Informed consent is one of the basic ethical rules for living related kidney transplantation.Doctors have obligations of informing before kidney transplantation.The advantages and disadvantages of each treatment should be introduced to uremic patients and their relatives to let them know that kidney transplantation is not the only choice for treating uremia.Both donors and recipients of living kidney transplantation should be informed of the clinical effects,all kinds of complications and their risks,and the importance of treatment compliance after operation.Donors should be notified with the interests,complications and risks in period of donating operation and long-term after operation,and should be notified with the interests and risks in some special conditions for exchanging donation.Voluntary donation should fulfill that donators make the decision of donation under a fully understanding of the risks of living kidney transplantation and being fully assessed by themselves,and cheating,luring and sealing kidneys for economic interests are ruled out in making consent.Persons with incapability can not be donors even if they had made the consents of donation.In order to make sure that the decision of donation is made under the condition that living donors and recipients have known the fact thoroughly,ethics committee should inspect the "consent of kidney transplantation of living donation" and "consent of operation" offered to donors and recipients by hospital to make sure that donors and recipients have been fully notified with the current situation,clinical effects and possible complications of living kidney transplantation by doctors.This measure can make sure that donors and recipients make the decision based on knowing the fact thoroughly and sign the consent personally.

Objective To analyze the method of self-management education on the health status of patients with gastric carcinoma during chemotherapy. Methods Patients with gastric carcinoma (60 cases) were divided into the test group and the control group with 30 cases in each group. The two groups both received chemotherapy of complete cycle and general health education. The test group adopted self-management education based upon the above treatment, including collective education, group discussion and individual instruction. The treatment effect was appraised and compared by senior primary nurses. Results The recent total effective rate of chemotherapy in the test group was 76.7%, which was higher than that of the control group (50.0%). The level of life quality of the test group was also better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Patients-centered self-management education could improve the health status of patients with gastric carcinoma during chemotherapy.

Objective The study aimed to construct one severity of illness scoring system specially for children with complex congenital heart diseases and analyzed the applicability of this new score,which will be helpful to assist the medical workers in evaluating children's condition.Methods A total of 1284children patients with complex congenital heart diseases in Shanghai Children's Medical Center Affiliated to School of Medicine of Shanghai Jiaotong University.The general information and clinical data were collected.Logistic regression,method of percentiles and expert opinions were used to construct the new severity of illness scoring system.Area under ROC curve,Hosmer-Lemeshow,goodness of fit test were used to evaluate the performance and applicability of the new score.Results A total of 1284 children with complex congenital heart diseases split into construction group (1138 cases) and verification group (146 cases).The new score included seven indexes (systolic blood pressure,blood oxygen saturation,lactic acid,potassium,potential of hydrogen,glucose,positive inotropic drug score).The range of the score was 0-57 and the cut-off point was 10.The discriminatory power was sufficient (area under the curve ＞ 0.75),and the calibration capability of the score was tolerable (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The applicability of the new score is well and it is easy to use,which will not increase the workload for the medical workers while assisting them in the clinical environment.
