Objective To explore the efficacy of blunt separation method in midline catheter intubation in elderly patients with coagulation dysfunction.Methods A total of 80 elderly patients with coagulation dysfunction were selected in the convenience sampling method from October 2022 to April 2023 in our hospital,and they were randomly divided into an experimental(blunt)group and a control(routine)group,with 40 patients in each group.The differences in the degree of bleeding and exudation at the puncture site,the pain score and the incidence of complications(including bleeding and exudation,phlebitis,symptomatic catheter-related thrombus,catheter blockage,catheter pulling-off)were compared between 2 groups.Results In the experimental group,the degree of bleeding and exudation at the puncture point immediately after the operation,degree of bleeding and exudation at the puncture point 24 hours after the operation,pain score 1 day after the catheterization,pain score 3 days after the catheterization,incidence of bleeding and exudation,total incidence of complications and maintenance times were significantly lower than these in the control group(P<0.05).In terms of the pain score immediately after the operation,pain score 5 days after the operation,incidence of phlebitis,incidence of symptomatic catheter-related thrombosis,incidence of catheter blockage,incidence of catheter pulling-off,incidence of catheter related skin injury,incidence of unplanned extubation,success rate of one-time sheath delivery and the indwelling time,the differences between the experimental group and control group were not significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of blunt separation method in midline catheter indwelling can significantly reduce the incidence and degree of bleeding at the puncture point,decrease the maintenance times and relieve the pain in elderly patients with coagulation dysfunction.

Objective:To investigate the effect of exercise rehabilitation on frailty of elderly patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods:From January to December 2021, 80 elderly patients with coronary heart disease who received PCI in Qinhuai Medical Area of General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command were selected as the study subject by convenience sampling. A total of 39 patients from January to June 2021 were set in the control group, and 41 patients from July to December 2021 were set in the experimental group. The control group was given routine nursing, and the experimental group was given systematic exercise rehabilitation on the basis of the control group. The effects of intervention were evaluated by Tilburg Frailty Index (FI) , Cardiac Exercise Self-Efficacy Instrument (CESEI) , cardiac function, exercise tolerance, and 6-minute Walking Distance (6MWD) .Results:There was no significant difference in FI and CESEI scores between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05) . After intervention, the FI score of patients in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group, and the CESEI score was higher than that in the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . There was no significant difference in cardiac function, exercise tolerance and 6MWD between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05) . After intervention, there were statistically significant differences in cardiac function, exercise tolerance and 6MWD between the two groups ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Exercise rehabilitation can effectively alleviate the frailty of elderly patients with coronary heart disease after PCI, improve their exercise compliance, cardiac function and exercise tolerance, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To analyze the research hotspots of the application of mobile health in cardiac function monitoring of patients with heart disease and to conduct a visual analysis.Method:Subject field retrieval was carried out based on Web of Science Core Collection. The retrieval time range was set from 2000 to 2022, and the type of paper was limited to treatise. The retrieved literatures were imported into Endnote 7 for screening, and the repetitive and unrelated literatures were excluded. A total of 291 literatures were included in this study. Open refine 2.8 was used for data cleaning of synonyms and then VOSviewer 1.6.18 was used for visualization analysis of country/region, author and keywords.Results:Research reports on the application of mobile medical in the field of cardiac function monitoring in patients with heart disease have been growing steadily since 2005, and the number of articles published in the field increased rapidly from 2020 to 2021. The top five countries with the highest number of publications were the United States (71) , Australia (20) , China (18) , the United Kingdom (14) and Sweden (13) . The cooperation and exchange among global researchers were relatively close, but they were still dominated by regional cooperation and had not formed a large core group of authors. A total of 71 high-frequency keywords were included, and the top five were mhealth (30 times) , heart failure (27 times) , smartphone (26 times) , telemedicine (15 times) and mobile phone (17 times) . Each cluster keyword was related to each other, which represented the current research hotspot content respectively.Conclusions:At present, number of publications in China ranks first in the world, but there is still a big gap compared with the United States. The development and optimization of monitoring equipment and mobile medical APP have become the focus and hot topics.
