Objective:To compare the hemostatic effects and patient comfort of different compression methods for hemostasis after transradial coronary intervention.Methods:A total of 160 patients who received transradial coronary intervention in The Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University from October 2018 to February 2020 were included in this study. In group A ( n = 80), patients underwent spiral compression at the puncture point (release for 1 turn at 2 hours after surgery, rotation for 1 circle after 1 hour, and full decompression). In group B ( n = 80), patients underwent spiral compression at the puncture point (release for 1 turn at 2 hours after surgery, rotation for 1 circle after 2 hours, and full decompression). Percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation value in the affected limb, heart rate, and Visual Analog Scale score at different times after surgery, pain and comfort score at 2 and 12 hours post-surgery were compared between the two groups. Results:Percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation value at 4 and 12 hours post-surgery in group A was (96.6 ± 0.7)% and (97.8 ± 0.5)%, respectively, which was significantly higher than that in group B [(96.2 ± 0.6)%, (97.6 ± 0.7)%, t = 3.88, 2.08, both P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in total score and subscale score of the General Comfort Questionnaire at 2 hours post-surgery between groups A and B (both P < 0.05). At 12 hours post-surgery, scores of psychological and physical subscales and total score of the General Comfort Questionnaire in group A were (23.64 ± 3.02) points, (12.64 ± 2.05) points, (68.25 ± 6.04) points, which were significantly higher than those in group B [(22.20 ± 2.96) points, (11.38 ± 2.47) points, (64.42 ± 6.71) points, t = 3.05, 3.51, 3.79, all P < 0.05]. At 2 hours post-surgery, there was no significant difference in Numerical Rating Scale score between groups A and B ( P > 0.05). At 4 and 12 hours post-surgery, Numerical Rating Scale score in group A was (2.51 ± 0.58) points and (1.75 ± 0.76) points, respectively, which was significantly lower than that in group B [(2.95 ± 0.63) points, (2.31 ± 0.71) points, t = -4.59, -4.82, both P < 0.05). The incidence of complications was significantly lower in group A than in group B (8.75% vs. 20.00%, χ2 = 4.11, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Compression for hemostasis is highly effective by releasing for 1 turn at 2 hours after transradial coronary intervention, rotating for 1 circle after 1 hour, and full compression because it can greatly mitigate pain, ensure the oxygen supply to the affected limbs, and improve patient comfort.

Objective:To investigate the effect of five-element music therapy combined with meridian-based acupoint massage timed according to qi circulationon on negative emotions and sleep quality in older adults with chronic heart failure. Methods:A total of 112 older adult patients with chronic heart failure who received treatment at The Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University between January 2022 and June 2023 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into a control group ( n = 56) and a study group ( n = 56) using the random number table method. Based on conventional treatment, the control group received five-element music therapy, while the intervention group underwent a combination of five-element music therapy and meridian-based acupoint massage timed according to qi circulation. Before and after the intervention, a comparison was made between the two groups in terms of the scores of the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and various dimensions of the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ). Additionally, the sleep outcome and patient satisfaction were also compared between the two groups. Results:After intervention, the scores of the HAMA and HAMD in the study group were (11.29 ± 2.48) points and (12.48 ± 3.36) points, respectively. In contrast, the control group had scores of (15.93 ± 3.35) points and (16.50 ± 4.32) points, respectively. After intervention, the scores of the HAMA and HAMD scales in both the study and control groups demonstrated a significant reduction in comparison with their respective pre-intervention scores [study group: (20.13 ± 5.18) points, (23.95 ± 8.97) points, control group: (19.36 ± 5.45) points, (23.79 ± 7.61) points, t = 15.35, 10.24, 5.65, 8.93, all P < 0.001). After intervention, the scores of the HAMA and HAMD scales in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t = -8.34, -5.49, both P < 0.001). After intervention, the scores of the PSQI in the study and control groups were (7.05 ± 0.96) points and (9.91 ± 1.28) points, respectively. After intervention, the scores of PSQI in both the study and control groups demonstrated a significant reduction compared with their respective pre-intervention scores [study group: (12.98 ± 2.21) points, control group: (12.50 ± 2.48) points, t = 24.68, 9.79, both P < 0.05]. After intervention, the score of the PSQI in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 13.34, P < 0.05). Based on the scores across various dimensions of the MLHFQ, it was observed that after intervention, the scores of emotional, physical, and other domains in both the study and control groups [study group: (9.36 ± 2.29) points, (16.95 ± 3.80) points, (18.50 ± 2.33) points; control group: (12.93 ± 2.00) points, (19.98 ± 3.98) points, (20.04 ± 2.24) points] decreased significantly compared with their pre-intervention scores [study group: (15.57 ± 1.55) points, (26.23 ± 4.63) points, (21.18 ± 2.50) points, control group: (16.09 ± 1.87) points, (25.32 ± 4.40) points, (21.57 ± 2.69) points, t = 21.66, 18.55, 8.44, 11.29, 11.73, 4.61, all P < 0.001]. After intervention, the scores of emotional, physical, and other domains in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t = -8.79, -4.13, -3.56, all P < 0.05). Patient satisfaction in the study group was superior to that that in the control group [98.21% (55/56) vs. 87.50% (49/56), χ2 = -3.09, P < 0.05]. Total effective rate of intervention on sleep in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [92.86% (52/56) vs. 78.57% (44/56), χ2 = -2.09, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Five-element music therapy combined with meridian-based acupoint massage timed according to qi circulationon in the treatment of chronic heart failure in older adults can effectively alleviate negative emotions, improve the quality of life and sleep, and increase patient satisfaction with nursing care.

Objective:To explore the application effect of adjustable body position protection belt in patients undergoing not painless colonoscopy.Methods:A randomized and controlled trial was used, a total of 180 patients who planned to undergo not painless colonoscopy in the Endoscopy center, the First Hospital of Jiaxing from January to October 2022 were selected as the research objects. They were divided into the experimental group and the control group by the random number table method, with 90 cases in each group. The control group adopted the traditional method of colonoscopy body position placement, and on this basis, the experimental group used the adjustable body position protection belt to assist the patient body position placement. The maintenance rate of body position in colonoscopy, the cecal intubation time, the degree of intraoperative pain and the acceptance rate of re-examinationunder the same operating doctor and nurse were compared between the two groups.Results:The maintenance rate of body position in colonoscopy was 97.78%(88/90) in the experimental group and 58.89%(53/90) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 37.84, P<0.05). The cecal intubation time was (7.84 ± 4.39) min in the experimental group and (10.13 ± 5.85) min in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t = 2.98, P<0.05). The intraoperative pain score was 2.96 ± 1.39 in the experimental group and 4.28 ± 1.42 in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t = 6.31, P<0.05). The acceptance rate for re-colonoscopy was 88.89%(80/90) in the experimental group and 72.22%(65/90) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 7.98, P<0.05). Conclusions:Use of adjustable body position protection belt to assist body position placement before the patients undergoing not painless colonoscopy, it can improve the maintenance rate of body position during not painless colonoscopy, shorten the time of cecal intubation, reduce the intraoperative pain degree, and patients also have a higher willingness to undergo colonoscopy again.
