Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of treating congestive heart failure with the combination of Astragalus,Danhong and Nitroglycerin injection.Methods 73 cases with congestive heart failure were selected.randomly recruited into a control group and a treatment group.The control group was treated with conventional therapy,and the treatment group was treated with Astragalus injection,Danhong and nitroglycerin injection on the basis of conventional mompy.Both groups were treated for one course of therapy of 21 days.Such indexes as clinical signs and symptoms,cardiac function,the amount of output per bo(SV),each sub-output(CO),cardiac index(CI),left ventricular ejection fraction(EF),and blood the rheology were observed before and after the treatment.Reselts The total effective ratewas 97.29%and 88.89%in the treatment group and the control group respectively,showing statistically differences between the two groups(P＜0.05):SV CO,CI and EF showed significant difference in both groups after the treatment(P＜0.01 or P＜0.05),and significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).Blood theology wag decreased after the treatment,and such clecreasing in the treatment was greater than that in the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion The combination therapy of astragalus,Danhong injection and nitroglycerin injection is effective in treating congestive heart failure.

Sixty-two elderly patients with distal radius fractures after fixation with small splints were enrolled in the study from January to December 2014.Patients were randomly divided into intervention and control groups with 31 cases in each group.Patients in both groups received comprehensive prevention for hand swelling, those in intervention group were given additional external administration of sodium aescinate gel (SAG), 1 g, t.i.d for 7 d.Swelling score and visual analogue scale (VAS) were documented before and 3, 7 d after intervention.At the time of fracture healing, the wrist functions, including motions of flexion-extension, motions of radial-ulnar and motions of pronation-supination were examined.At 3 and 7 d after intervention, the swelling score(1.22 ±0.69 vs.1.65 ±0.75 and 0.64 ±0.42 vs.0.96 ±0.71) and VAS(1.96 ±1.27 vs.2.85 ±1.40 and 1.11 ±0.65 vs.1.86 ±1.09)of intervention group were lower than those of control group (all P<0.05).At the time of fracture healing, the wrist motions of flexion-extension [(83.7 ±8.6) vs.(77.6 ±7.1)%], motions of radial-ulnar [(83.0 ±7.6) vs.(78.2 ±8.7)%] and motions of pronation-supination [(81.0 ±7.0) vs.(76.2 ±7.5)%] of intervention group were higher than those of control group ( P <0.05 ) .The results indicate that SAG can reduce swelling, relief pain and promote the recovery of wrist function in elderly patients with distal radius fractures.

The conduction of performance appraisal in the hospital is of great significance to the perfection of the appraisal system and the improvement of the managerial efficiency of the hospital. The authors suggest that in the process of establishing an appraisal system of hospital performance, it is necessary to use for reference enterprises' experience in performance appraisal and the theories of performance management. Firstly, single-faceted pursuit of economic benefits should be avoided, the establishment of an external hospital appraisal system and the establishment of an internal hospital appraisal system should be combined, and attention should be paid to the overall application of performance appraisal in performance management. Secondly, in light of their own experience in hospital management, the authors put forward the suggestion of establishing a performance appraisal system of three levels: the hospital , the department and the post. They also argue that attention should be given to the selection of comprehensive appraisal methods, continuous communication about performance, and readjustment in a timely manner.
