Objective To explore the effect of quality control circle (QCC) in reducing the radiation dose during chest CT scan. Methods QCC was founded, activity themes were selected, activity schedule was planned, the reasons of high radiation dose was analyzed, countermeasures were planned and implemented jointly by circle members, and then per capita radiation dose and image quality before and after improving was compared to confirm the effect of QCC activities. The subjects of chest CT scan before and after improvement in our center were selected, included totally 218 cases, their average age was (47.05 ± 8.58) years, 162 were male, 56 were female, 44 cases had CT scan before improvement, 174 cases after improvement, and the data were analyzed by T-test and Chi-square test. Results The radiation dose per capita has declined from 13.75 mGy to 3.45 mGy, The rate of standard was 102.08%, progress rate was 74.91%. The rate of high-quality image was 92.52%. Compared with per capita radiation dose before and after the activities, the differences were statistically significant(P<0.001). The rate of high-quality image was 93.18% before activities, the percentage remained steady at 92.52% after the activities, there was no statistically significant differences in image quality(P>0.05). Conclusions Application of QCC not only reduced the radiation dose of the client without image quality changes, but also improved thinking and learning capacity, cooperative consciousness of the circle members.

OBJECTIVE To control the spread of multi-drug resistant(MDR) bacteria in hospital and to ensure patients′ medical safety.METHODS We had established a network monitoring system,improved MDR monitoring,enhanced management of antibiotics rational use and cut off the transmission of MDR bacteria.RESULTS After taken these measures,the standard preventing of medical workers,handwashing compliance and specimen censorship rate had been greatly improved.Antimicrobial drug use was more standardized.In the last two years,we hadn′t found any epidemic outbreak due to MDR bacteria event.CONCLUSIONS Taking comprehensive prevention and control measures can prevent and control the development and proliferation of MDR bacteria and ensure patients′ medical safety.

Objective To explore the impulsivity and aggressivity,and its treatment outcomes of the inpatients with intemet addiction disorder (IAD) by intergration interview. Methods Barratt Impulsiveness Scale ( BIS), Buss Aggressive Scale (BAS) were used to assess the impulsiveness and aggressivity in 58 IAD patients, at the first week and after the point of intergration interview 3 months,54 normal subjects in the control group were conducted by BIS and BAS only when they were recruited. Results ①The intemet addiction group had significantly higher scores on the BIS and BAS total scores than the control group at the first week ( BIS score 99.3 ±15. 1vs 75.0 ± 15.4, t=8.47, P<0. 01; BAS score 78.3 ±24.4 vs 54.8 ± 17.7, t=5.87 , P<0. 01 ). IAD group had lower scores on the total scores of BIS-Ⅱ and BAS after intergration interview than before, but the subscales and total scores were higher than those in the control group ( BIS score 86.3 ± 16.6 vs 75.0 ± 15.4, t =4.98, P < 0.01 ;BAS score 66.2 ± 22.6 vs 54.8 ± 17.7, t = 3.65, P < 0. 01 ). ②Total score of SCL-90 in IAD group were significantly correlated with the BAS total score ( r=0. 376, P<0. 01 ) ,and the decreased SCL-90 total score was also related with the decreased BAS score ( r= 0.508, P< 0. 01 ). Conclusion This study suggests that IAD group exhibit more impulsivity and aggressivity than those in the control group. After interview, their impulsivity and aggressivity are significantly decreased, but are still higher than those in the normal control group.

Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in intensive care unit (ICU) so as to provide scientific basis for antibiotic adoption and the prevention and control of nosocomial infections. Methods The various specimens collected from the patients admitted into ICU in the First People's Hospital of Shunde Affiliated to the South Medical University from January 2007 to December 2014 were used to isolate the pathogens that might cause nosocomial infections and retrospectively analyze their clinical distribution and drug resistance. Kirby-Bauer paper diffusion and minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) methods were applied to test the drug sensitivity, and according to National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards/Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (NCCLS/CLSI) standard, the results were identified.Results The sputum was the major specimen source in ICU, accounting for 68.8%, followed by urine (12.4%) and blood (6.8%). All together 557 pathogens in ICU causing nosocomial infections were isolated of which there were 377 gram-negative (G-) bacilli (67.7%), 103 gram-positive (G+) cocci (18.5%), and 77 fungi (13.8%). Among G- bacilli, the top three wereAcinetobacter baumannii (34.5%), Klebsiella pneumonia (17.8%), andPseudomonas aeruginosa (13.0%). Beside carbapenem, the drug resistance rates of Acinetobacterbaumannii to other antibiotics were more than 40%. The main G+ coccus causing nosocomial infection wasSaphylococcus aureus (36.9%) in ICU. The drug resistance rates ofSaphylococcus aureus to penicillin, gentamicin and erythromycin were higher than 50%. In 77 fungus strains,Candida albicans was ranked the first, accounting for 41.6%.Conclusion The main infection site in ICU is primarily respiratory tract, the G- bacilli are the predominate pathogens, and the drug resistance to antibiotics found in this report is serious, so clinically, the antibiotics should be properly used to avoid the occurrence of pathogenic strain with drug tolerance.
5.Exploration of college English curriculum reform under the background of new medical science—a case study of Xiamen Medical College
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2022;21(9):1158-1162
This study proposes the guiding principles, reform ideas and realization paths of college English curriculum reform based on the orientation of medical colleges and the objectives of talents cultivation. Taking Xiamen Medical College's English curriculum reform as an example, it has systematically built a curriculum system which incorporates medical humanities and medical disciplines, and is featured by medical science. Meanwhile it has probed into the connotation of "new medical science" and explored curriculum construction and teaching reform integrated by information technology, as well as the intelligent curriculum evaluation system, thus providing reference for college English curriculum reform in medical colleges and universities under the background of "new medical science".

Objective:To explore whether the introduction of the O-PIRTAS (objective, preparation, instructive vedio, review, test, activity, summary) teaching model can help in curriculum learning and improve students' medical humanities literacy.Methods:Taking 118 sophomores of clinical medicine and nursing majors from Xiamen Medical College as control group, and 122 students as experimental group and as control group, the research lasting 8 weeks was carried out around five modules. The control group adopted the traditional teaching mode, while the experimental group used the O-PIRTAS model. After teaching, by comparing the exam results and issuing questionnaires, the teaching effects of the two methods on students' caring ability, empathy, emotional intelligence and supportive communication ability were compared. SPSS 22.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:The average score of the experimental group [(83.61±2.13) points] was higher than that of the control group [(78.03±2.02) points], with significant differences ( t=3.60, P<0.001). As for the statistical analysis of the questionnaire, the students in experimental group scored higher in empathy, emotional intelligence and supportive communication skills than those in control group ( t=-3.20, P=0.002; t=-3.93, P<0.001; t=-4.00, P<0.001). Conclusion:Applying O-PIRTAS flipped classroom teaching model to medical humanities English courses helps to improve students' curriculum learning and medical humanities literacy, improve the effectiveness of the classroom and better play the educational role of the curriculum.
