This paper focuses on the total cerebral ischemic injury after cardiac arrest (CA), the authors analyze how acupuncture improves neurological impairment and the prognosis after CA from the perspectives of traditional Chinese medicine theory and modern research achievements of acupuncture on Shuigou. It should take into consideration of three factors in both basic and clinical study: the time and link of intervention, mechanism, optimization of stimulating parameters in order to clear the direction of acupuncturing Shuigou improves the neural functional recovery after CA.

Objective To investigate the influence of different prompt measures on the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) chest compressions in the standardized training of residents in Chinese medicine hospitals. Methods There were 84 participants who were the first year standardized training residents recruited from Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese medicine during July to August 2016, and eleven of them were excluded because of incomplete chest compression data collected from the feedback system. Finally, 73 participants being volunteers were enrolled. They were divided randomly into phone metronome group (n = 16), music metronome group (n = 15), depth display group (n = 22), and blank control group (n = 20). In phone metronome group, a mobile phone metronome was applied in the duration of CPR, with a frequency of 110 beats per minute, beat 2/4; in the music metronome group, it was accompanied by the music Staying Alive during the compression period, with frequency of 107 beats per minute, beat 4/4; in depth display group, a model electronic displayer was used in the duration of the compressions to feedback the real time compression depth and its rebound situation in CPR; there was no any intervention measure in blank control group. Each participant performed 5 cycles of CPR on a manikin. A chest compression feedback device was placed on the pressing point, on which the participants places the hand for CPR. The chest compression fraction 1 (CCF1), compression depth, compression rate, too slow frequency, too fast frequency, too shallow frequency, the total times of compressions, the correct times of compressions, correct rate, and the rate of compression retention were record as preliminary evaluation data by using the dual sensor and the pressure sensor built in the chest compression feedback device. At the same time, the correct compression ratio, correct ventilation ratio, the chest compression fraction 2 (CCF2) displayed on the human electronic displayer of the manikin were used as the review criteria. The quality of chest compression among the four groups of volunteers was compared. Results The compression rate and the too fast frequency in the depth display group were significantly higher than those in the music metronome group [compression rate (bpm): 140.59±17.90 vs. 124.27±21.43, the too fast frequency (times): 134.18±49.88 vs. 95.40±53.76, both P < 0.05], and the total compression times in depth display group were significantly higher than either in music metronome group or in blank control group (times: 152.73±27.05 vs. 135.60±10.38, 144.60±12.56, all P < 0.05), the rate of compression retention in depth display group was significantly higher than that in blank control group [37.50% (4.75%, 88.25%) vs. 12.00% (2.75%, 47.00%)]. Consistency detection of two sets of feedback systems for chest compression showed that the chest compression ratio in music metronome group evaluated by the chest compression feedback device was obviously lower than that assessed by the analog human electronic displayer [(53.60±9.87)% vs. (58.20±28.17)%], and it was suggested that the chest compression ratio in depth display group evaluated by the chest compression feedback device be markedly higher than that assessed by the analog human electronic displayer [(56.32±7.77)% vs. (43.86±27.63)%, P < 0.05], and it was shown that the correct rates of chest compression assessed by the chest compression feedback device were significantly lower than those evaluated by the analog human electronic displayer in metronome, music, depth and blank control groups [phone metronome group: 0.00% (0.00%, 60.75%) vs. 38.50% (24.25%, 92.00%), music metronome group: 0.00% (0.00%, 7.00%) vs. 60.00% (32.00%, 89.00%), depth display group: 0.00% (0.00%, 0.25%) vs. 34.00% (20.75%, 68.25%), blank control group: 0.00% (0.00%, 1.75%) vs. 61.50% (30.75%, 84.25%), all P < 0.05], suggesting that the consistency of this two feedback systems be poor and their degrees of reliability low. Conclusion The effects of intervention measures on the quality of chest compressions vary from person to person, and the quality of chest compressions can be really elevated only by systematic training and repeated practice.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the incidence, mortality, clinical characteristics and related factors of transient and persistent acute kidney injury in patients with sepsis in emergency department.Methods:Patients with sepsis ≥ 18 years old hospitalized in the Emergency Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from June 2018 to May 2020 were selected as the research objects. According to the renal function injury at admission and the renal function recovery at 48 h after admission, patients with sepsis were divided into three groups: non-S-AKI group, transient S-AKI group, and persistent S-AKI group.Results:A total of 197 patients with sepsis were included, including 95 patients with non-S-AKI, 39 patients with transient S-AKI and 63 patients with persistent S-AKI. The mortality in the persistent S-AKI group was significantly higher than that in the non-S-AKI group (36.5% vs. 17.9%, P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the transient S-AKI group and non-S-AKI group (20.5% vs. 17.9%, P>0.05). Multiple categorical disordered Logistic regression analysis showed that urea was associated with transient S-AKI ( OR=1.440, 95% CI: 1.235-1.680), and age ( OR=1.049, 95% CI: 1.008-1.092), urea ( OR=1.440, 95% CI: 1.277-1.733), and infection site in non-urinary tract ( OR=0.149, 95% CI: 0.050-0.448) were associated with persistent S-AKI. Conclusions:The incidence of persistent S-AKI is higher than that of transient S-AKI. Persistent S-AKI is related to the prognosis of patients with sepsis, and the mortality rate is higher, while transient S-AKI has no significant relationship. The urea of patients with S-AKI would increase significantly, and advanced age and urinary tract infection are related factors for the occurrence of persistent S-AKI. For patients with sepsis with such factors, attention should be paid to early protection of renal function to prevent persistent S-AKI.

Objective To Pulse oximetry saturation has been wildly used clinically.It has been reported that pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform (POP) reflected the peripheral tissue perfusion.In this study,we parameterized POP,observed the value of POP parameters in normal adults,and established the normal reference value range.Methods A multi-center prospective descriptive study.Total of 1 019 adult volunteers with normovolemia from 7 cities were enrolled in this study.Sex,age,height,weight and pulse oximetry data in awake and spontaneous breathing under in quiet conditions in the room temperature were collected.POP parameters and perfusion index were analyzed using MATLAB 2012a software.The normal reference value ranges of POP parameters,including the amplitude of POP (Amp) and the area under the curve of POP (AUC),were formulated.Results Statistical differences of POP parameters were detected between men and women in the normal adult.The 95％ confidence reference value of POP parameters in normal population was as follows:Amp (104.8-2298.7) PVA and AUC (3265.8-6028.5) PVPGin total,Amp (129.4-2433.6) PVA and AUC (3319.0-5862.2) PVPG in male;Amp (89.5-2138.2) PVA and AUC (3163.9-5929.9) PVPG in female.Conclusions POP,including the amplitude of POP (Amp) and the area under the curve of POP (AUC),had normal reference value ranges in normal adults.

Pharmacy services in grassroots medical institutions provide professional pharmacy services for patients. This service not only expanded the scope of primary care delivery, but also meets the residents′need for appropriate medication. At present, the majority of grassroots medical institutions in China provide outpatient pharmacy services by means of pharmacy service alliance, and foreign grassroots medical institutions mainly provide pharmaceutical outpatient services with drug treatment management as the core for patients by granting pharmacists partial prescription rights.In recent years, pharmaceutical outpatient services in grassroots medical institutions had achieved good results in improving patient clinical outcomes, enhancing medication rationality, and enhancing patient compliance. However, there were many unresolved issues, including low public awareness, shortage of pharmaceutical talents, and imperfect guarantee systems. The author suggestted that efforts should be made to increase the publicity of pharmaceutical outpatient services, improve the training mechanism for pharmacists, strengthen cooperation between pharmacists and clinical physicians, include pharmacists in the contracted service team of family doctors, and improve various guarantee systems, in order to provide reference for promoting the sustainable development of pharmaceutical outpatient services in grassroots medical institutions in China.

Drug therapy is a common method to cure diseases and relieve symptoms.The value of patient-reported outcome(PRO)in evaluating the effect of drug therapy has been increasingly paid attention.The PRO scale is a standardized questionnaire,which can scientifically evaluate the experiences and subjective effects of drug use from a patient-centered perspective,and help patients and clinicians make more reasonable medication decisions.By reviewing and sorting out relevant global literature,this paper found that the content of the PRO scales relevant to drug therapy focused on five fields:"medication satisfaction""medication adherence""drug treatment burden""medication-related quality of life"and"adverse drug reactions".This paper described the basic information,measurement characteristics and application of common scales in recent years respectively,and summarized and analyzed the problems and enlightenment of scale development,aiming to provide theoretical reference for the selection,application and development of PRO scales.

Objective:To observe the results of electroacupuncture (EA) on the resuscitation of a rat model of asphyxia cardiac arrest (CA). And to explore its effect on the neurologic deficits and hemodynamic instability of post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS).Methods:A total of 107 male SD rats were randomly divided into sham, CA, and EA groups. Each group received arterial catheterization and tracheal intubation. The sham group was not induced asphyxia. Asphyxial cardiac arrest was established by endotracheal tube clamping. Rats in the CA group received basic respiratory support and fluid resuscitation in return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and rats in the EA group received EA at Baihui based on the treatment of CA group after ROSC, with a dense-dispersed wave at frequencies of 4-20 Hz, while the current intensity was adjusted minimum to induce a twitch of the scalp, the course of treatment was 30 minutes. The baseline data, hemodynamics after ROSC, neurological deficit score (NDS), pathological changes of brain tissue, and levels of serum biomarker were recorded and compared among the three groups. The 72-hour survival of rats was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curve. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes of necrotic neurons in the hippocampal CA1 region of rat brain. Meanwhile, Nissl staining and TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) were used to detect cell apoptosis and injury.Results:Compared with the CA group, the mean arterial pressure (MAP) in the EA group increased significantly at 15 minutes after ROSC [mmHg (1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa): 125.00 (94.00, 136.25) vs. 92.00 (72.00, 122.50), P < 0.05]. There was no significant difference in the NDS score between the EA group and the sham group. Still, the NDS score of the rats in the CA group at 6 hours after ROSC were significantly lower than that in the sham group (46.00±10.61 vs. 80.00±0.00, P < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that EA did not improve the 72-hour survival rate of rats (100% in the sham group, 25% in the CA group, and 30% in the EA group, P > 0.05). The analysis by TUNEL showed that the apoptosis rate of neurons in CA1 region of the hippocampus in EA group at 6 hours after ROSC was significantly lower than that in CA group [(62.84±2.67)% vs. (71.29±3.70)%, P < 0.05]. Compared with the CA group, the level of serum S100 calcium binding protein B (S100B) in the EA group at 6 hours after ROSC was significantly lower (ng/L: 19.30±13.87 vs. 132.28±31.67, P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences in the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) between these two groups. Conclusions:In the present study, EA at Baihui can stabilize the hemodynamic, moreover, it has a particular neuroprotective effect on PCAS rats. Still, EA at Baihui does not reduce the systemic inflammatory response and improve the survival rate of rats, and its mechanism remains to be verified in further research.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oliceridine for treatment of moderate to severe pain after surgery with general anesthesia in patients.Methods:The patients with moderate to severe pain (numeric pain rating scale ≥4) after abdominal surgery with general anesthesia from 14 hospitals between July 6, 2021 and November 9, 2021 were included in this study. The patients were assigned to either experiment group or control group using a random number table method. Experiment group received oliceridine, while control group received morphine, and both groups were treated with a loading dose plus patient-controlled analgesia and supplemental doses for 24 h. The primary efficacy endpoint was the drug response rate within 24 h after giving the loading dose. Secondary efficacy endpoints included early (within 1 h after giving the loading dose) drug response rates and use of rescue medication. Safety endpoints encompassed the development of respiratory depression and other adverse reactions during treatment.Results:After randomization, both the full analysis set and safety analysis set comprised 180 cases, with 92 in experiment group and 88 in control group. The per-protocol set included 170 cases, with 86 in experiment group and 84 in control group. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in 24-h drug response rates, rescue analgesia rates, respiratory depression, and incidence of other adverse reactions ( P>0.05). The analysis of full analysis set showed that the experiment group had a higher drug response rate at 5-30 min after giving the loading dose compared to control group ( P<0.05). The per-protocol set analysis indicated that experiment group had a higher drug response rate at 5-15 min after giving the loading dose than control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:When used for treatment of moderate to severe pain after surgery with general anesthesia in patients, oliceridine provides comparable analgesic efficacy to morphine, with a faster onset.
