Objective To explore the effects of different time spans for off-bed activities on postoperative rehabiliatioin of patients with liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 42 patients having undergone allogeneic liver transplantation during Jan. 2014 to Oct. 2015 were assigned as the observation group. Another 44 patitents during the same period , matched to those in the observation group in terms of general data , were assigned as the control group . The clinical data of two groupos were reviewed to make comparisons in terms of the time for anus exhaust , the time spans for gastric tube and urinary catheter indwelling , abdominal cavity effusion and hemorrhage and pulmonary infection 3 days after operation. Result The time for anus exhaust and the time spans for gastric tube and urinary catheter indwelling in the observation group were all significantly shorter than the control gorup (P<0.05), but there were insignifiant differences between the groups in abdominal cavity effusion and hemorrhage and pulmonary infection. Conclusion Off-bed activities 3 days after operation is safe and feasible for the patients having undergone allogeneic liver transplantation. It can promote their process of rehabilitation.

Objective To explore the strategies and effectiveness of perioperative fluid administration during pediatric kidney transplantation.Methods In our study,we evaluated the heart function and compliance of pediatric patients preoperatively,and then formulated perioperative fluid management strategy according to children’s circulation feature.The electrolytic balance was kept and complications were prevented.Results Twenty-nine out of all 48 children experienced electrolyte disturbance to different extents on day 1 postoperatively,which improved on day 2 after prompt management.There were five cases of oliguria,three cases of delayed graft function(DGF),one case of heart failure and multiple organ failure respectively.Conclusion Such nursing strategies like formulation of reasonable fluid infusion plan according to the physiological features of pediatric recipients,keeping the electrolytic balance and careful management of fluid at polyuria,oliguria and anuria,care critical for the children to live through the perioperative periods.

Objective To investigate the nursing points of pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the nursing experience of two patients with end-stage liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus who were complicated with pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation from March 2009 to July 2015. Results The blood glucose of these patients returned to normal level within 1 week after operation and insulin was discontinued. Pancreatic leakage was occurred in the two patients at 14 and 21 days after operation, respectively. They were both successfully discharged after active treatments and nursing cares including completely drainage, the application of drugs that inhibited the secretion of pancreatic enzymes and digestive tract glands, strengthening infection control, nutritional support and other conservative treatments. Conclusions It is the key to improve the recovery of pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation with careful observation of abdominal signs and abdominal drainage tube, accurate use of somatostatin, nutritional support, maintenance of water and electrolyte balance, and psychological intervention.
