Objective:To provide the basis for postoperative nutritional support,exp lore the appropriate support methods and its influnce on rehabilitation in postoperative patients with laryngea l carcinoma.Methods:285 patients with laryngeal carcinoma were randomly divided into therapy group and control group.The therapy group (161 patients)was given homogenate diet and the control group(124 patients) was given mixed mi lk by nasal feeding 5-6 times per day.The nutritional index and occurr ence of pharyrgeal fistula were monitored at preoperation,7th and 14th days postopera tion r espectively.The duration of hospitalization of each patient was recorded at the same time. Results:The decreasing of the nutritional index w as significantly lower in the therapy group than in the control group(P<0.0 5).The duration of hospitalization was shortented to about 12 days, and the incidence of pharyngeal fistul a was reduced to 11%.Conclusion:The appropriate nutrition may decrease the incidence of pharyngeal fistula,shorten the mean duration in hospital and reduce the economic burden of postoperative patients with laryngeal carcinoma.

Objective:To construct a scientifically standardized and promotable pneumonia prevention and nursing plan for acute stroke patients to guide clinical nursing practice.Methods:According to the evidence-based retrieval strategy, we systematically searched the domestic and foreign clinical decision support system, guideline networks, professional association websites and relevant databases. All databases were searched from January 2012 to November 2022. A preliminary pneumonia prevention and nursing plan for acute stroke patients was formulated after literature quality evaluation, evidence extraction, evidence integration and evaluation. The plan was further revised and improved through three rounds of Delphi expert consultation.Results:In the three rounds of expert consultation, the enthusiasm of experts was 100.0%, 100.0%, 83.3%, the authority coefficient of experts were 0.967, 0.967, 0.937, the coefficient of variation were 0.048 to 0.363, 0 to 0.177, 0 to 0.144, and the Kendal harmony coefficient were 0.221, 0.139, 0.339 ( P<0.001) . The final nursing plan included 8 modules, including pneumonia risk prediction, general nursing, swallowing and dietary management, airway management, oral management, position and exercise, condition observation, and health education, with a total of 30 items. Conclusions:The evidence and Delphi method based pneumonia prevention and nursing plan for acute stroke patients is scientific, reliable and applicable, which can provide a basis for nursing practice.
