It elaborates the importance of designing a patient-centered hospital environment, and presents the concept of such a design. The authors hold that such a concept is mostly composed of systematic, people-oriented, informationized and variability designs, and describe the design trends in contemporary hospitals. It is also pointed out that patient-centered principle should be dominant in building a contemporary hospital, as the guideline and development trend, as a satisfactory hospital environment makes a hospital more competitive.

Objective To investigate the effects of temperature and time on the quality of cryoprecipitate.Methods Fresh frozen plasmas were divided into the three groups,and the cryoprecipitate were prepared from fresh frozen plasma by siphonage method thawing at 2℃,4℃ or 6℃ water bat.Thawing time,FⅧ and fibfinogen (Fg) were compared among the three groups.Results The thawing time at 2℃,4℃ or 6℃ was (96.3 ± 5.9) min,(89.6 ± 4.3) min,(81.2 ± 2.7) min.The activity of F Ⅷ was (95.36 ± 4.8) IU,(91.21 ± 3.3) IU,(89.8 ±3.1)IU,respectively.The activity of FⅧ was the highest at 2℃ condition and there was significantly different compared with other two groups (t =6.94,P =0.009,t =8.96,P =0.004).The activity of FⅧ in 4℃ group and 6℃ group were comparable (t =0.669,P =0.19).The concentration of Fg at three groups were similar (258.6 ±12.6) mg,(253.3 ±8.2)mg,(255.9 ±9.7) mg (t =0.321,P =0.37;t =0.270,P =0.56;t =0.424,P =0.29).Conclusion The activity of FⅧ at 2℃ condition were the highest but the thawing time was the longest.The activity of FⅧ at 6℃ condition were lower but met quality requirements and the thawing time was very short.There was no significantly different at Fg concentration among three groups.Thus 6℃ is more suitable for blood center to prepare cryoprecipitate from fresh frozen plasmas.

Objective To investigate the hand hygiene status of urban and rural residents in Hangzhou City of Zhejiang Province to provide scientific base for health promotion.Methods Urban residents,rural residents,personnel in government institutions,urban students,rural students and enterprise workers were enrolled in this investigation.By using constant volume sampling method,fifty individuals in each group were recruited from 13 districts of Hangzhou City,and a total of 3 337 people filled in the questionnaire,which included demographic characteristics,knowledge of hand hygiene and hand washing.Logistic regression analysis and x2 test were used for data analysis.Results Correct hand-washing was found in 35.84％ urban and rural residents (urban vs.rural:41.45％ vs.27.06％).Awareness rate of hand hygiene was 35.06％.The influencing factors of proper hand washing were location,gender,age,educational level and understanding of hand hygiene.The influencing factors of awareness of hand hygiene were location,gender,age and educational level.Conclusion Hangzhou citizens had a relatively lower rate of proper hand washing,and significant difference was found between urban and rural residents; the study suggested that para-urben residents need to improve their knowledge and behavior of hand hygiene.Meanwhile,the students urgenty need to improve their hand hygiene

OBJECTIVE: Synovial sarcoma (SS) of the head and neck is rare in comparison with those took place in the extremities. This study was planned to investigate the relationship between pathological diagnosis, tumor location and clinical outcome of SS of the head and neck. METHOD: Thirty-nine cases of SS in head and neck hospitalized in West China Hospital from 1966 to 2011 was retrospectively studied by reviewing the medical record data, the pathological slices of the operative specimen and followed-up from 1 to 192 months with the mean time of 43.2 months postoperatively. The parameters of clinical outcome were focused on the time to first recurrence after primary surgery and follow-up time. The reviewed results were statistically processed. RESULT: The age of the patients ranged from 8 to 66 years old with the median age of 35, among them 27 are males. Pathologically, 18 cases are biphasic, 17 cases are monophasic and 3 cases are low-differentiated SS. 4 cases were proved by cytogenetic methods of either fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) or RT-PCR. 23 cases experienced repeated recurrence with the most up to 4 times operations after sole surgical approach. Only one lymphatic metastasis was suspected in all. 16 patients got adjuvant radiotherapy or chemotherapy. 4 patients died but only one death was associated directly with SS recurrence. There was no significant relationship between pathological subtype and recurrence (Fisher's Exact Test P-value > 0.05), no significant relationship between tumor location and recurrence (Fisher's Exact Test P-value > 0.05). CONCLUSION SS of head and neck is a special entity that has potential of easy recurrence but good prognosis. Surgery should still be the primary treatment approach. Cytogenetic methods are recommended to as certain the diagnosis in order to choose reasonable treatment protocols.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of digital auditory activation and touching intervention on infants with cerebral dysfunction.Methods388 infants with perinatal high-risk factors and abnormal result of Denver Development Screening Test (DDST) were randomly divided into group A (n=135), group B (n=128) and group C (n=125), and treated with digital auditory activation combined with touching (group A), simple touching (group B) and simple drug (group C) with 10 days as a course. All infants were tested with DDST after one therapeutic course, and tested again with DDST after the infants of group B and group C treated continuously for six therapeutic courses; and all infants were assessed with the Gesell development quotient (DQ) after six months.ResultsAfter one therapeutic course, normal rate of DDST was 71.11% in group A, 26.69% in group B and 20.00% in group C. After six therapeutic courses, that was 90.37 % in group A, 62.50 in group B and 40.00% in group C. After six months, the children with the Gesell DQ over 86 scores was 125 (92.60%) in group A, 90 (70.31%) in group B and 62 (49.60%) in group C. There were significant differences among three groups ( P<0.01).ConclusionThe digital auditory activation combined with touching has short therapeutic course and high efficacy, so it is a good therapeutic method for infants with cerebral dysfunction.
