Objective To assess the application effect of the catheter management software on the management of Indwelling urinary catheter in the Emergency intensive care unit (EICU). Methods A prospective control study of targeted surveillance of catheter-associated urinary tract infection was conducted from January 2014 to December 2015 in EICU. The patients were divided into two groups. The patients in control group (131 patients) were treated from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014 and received routine catheter management, and the patients in test group (135 patients) were treated from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015, and received catheter management by software. The catheter management software was developed and applied, and the process specification which collaborated with the software was established. The quality of the catheter management including the omission rate of the catheter management, the rate of urinary catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) and the rate of catheter used etc were evaluated after the software's application. Results Through software applications, the omission rate of the catheter management, the omission rate of urine drainage bag replacementand the omission rate of urinary catheter replacement in test group were significantly lower than those in control group:0 vs. 36.64%(48/131), 0 vs. 15.27%(20/131) and 0 vs. 9.92%(13/131), P<0.01 or<0.05. The performance rate of catheter daily management in test group was significantly higher than that in control group: 99.26%(134/135) vs. 64.12%(84/131), P<0.01. The rate of CAUTI in test group was significantly lower than that in control group: 1.90‰ vs. 9.16‰, χ2=4.843, P=0.028. The rate of catheter used in test group was significantly lower than that in control group: 60.74%(82/135) vs. 73.28%(96/131), P<0.01. Conclusions The development and the establishment of the management software can improve the rate of implement, and declinethe rate of CAUTI.

Objective To explore the effect of Omaha system nursing model on nutritional status and disease condition of patients with low body mass and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods Sixty COPD patients with low body mass who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Huzhou University from January 2015 to November 2016 were enrolled, and they were randomly divided into an Omaha system nursing model group and a routine care intervention group, with 30 cases in each group. The Delphi expert consultation method was used to construct the Omaha nursing problem system and intervention system for COPD patients with low body mass. The patients in the routine care intervention group were given routine care intervention; the patients in the Omaha system nursing model group underwent nutritional intervention according to the Omaha system nursing model. The Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), COPD Assessment Test (CAT) and the modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (mMRC) were used to be the evaluation system of the Omaha system nursing model, the changes of MNA, CAT and mMRC evaluation scores on admission and in 1, 3, and 6 months after discharge in the two groups were recorded, and the correlations between MNA score and CAT, mMRC scores were analyzed. Results Omaha system analysis showed that the main health problems of the Omaha system nursing model group were distributed in the environmental (17.86%), social psychological (8.93%), physiological (19.64%), and health-related behavioral (53.57%) aspects, among which health-related behaviors were mostly common. There were no statistical significant differences in the scores of CAT, mMRC, and MNA between the two groups on admission (all P > 0.05). The CAT and mMRC scores of the Omaha system nursing model group in 1, 3, and 6 months after discharge were significantly lower than those on admission (CAT score: 16.98±2.39, 16.67±2.55, 15.36±2.17 vs. 25.76±3.67; mMRC score: 2.35±0.57, 1.97±0.52, 1.49±0.51 vs. 3.07±0.55, all P < 0.05), MNA scores were significantly higher than those on admission (11.89±3.57, 13.97±3.52, 15.49±3.51 vs. 10.33±3.02, all P < 0.05), and along with the prolongation of time the decrease and increase in scores were more significant. The scores of the Omaha system nursing model group were improved more significantly in 1, 3 and 6 months after discharge than those of the routine care intervention group (CAT score: 16.98±2.39, 16.67±2.55, 15.36±2.17 vs. 23.01±2.67, 21.15±2.79, 19.06±2.61; mMRC score: 2.35±0.57, 1.97±0.52, 1.49±0.51 vs. 3.06±0.65, 3.06±0.61, 2.65±0.67;MNA score: 11.89±3.57, 13.97±3.52, 15.49±3.51 vs. 9.96±3.15, 10.06±3.09, 8.55±3.17, all P < 0.05]. Pearson correlation analyses showed that MNA score was significantly negatively correlated with CAT score (r = -0.493, P = 0.001) and with mMRC score (r = -0.594, P = 0.001) respectively. Conclusion Using the Omaha system nursing model for nutrition intervention in COPD patients with low body mass can significantly improve their nutritional status and disease condition as well as quality of life.

Objective To compare the pulp chamber temperature changes of Nd:YAP laser, Nd:YAG laser and semiconductor laser with the same power during dentin hypersensitivity treatment, and to evaluate the safety of these three laser treatments for dentin hypersensitivity. Methods 50 intact third molars were collected to prepare the dentin hypersensitivity model. The samples were randomly divided into Nd:YAP laser group (n=15), Nd:YAG laser group (n=15), semiconductor laser group (n=15), and blank control group (n=5). Each experimental group was divided into three subgroups (n=5) of 0.9 W, 1.4 W, and 1.8 W according to the laser power. The experiments were conducted with the corresponding laser parameters and thermocouple thermometer was used to record the temperature changes in the pulp chamber. The control group does not do any processing. After laser irradiation, one sample was randomly taken from each group and the morphology of dentin tubules was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Results When different power lasers were used to irradiate the samples, the temperatures of the pulp chamber in each group were increased. Among them, the temperature rise of the pulp chamber was smallest in the Nd:YAP laser group, followed by the semiconductor laser group, and the temperature rise was highest in the Nd:YAG laser group, but it was still lower than 5.5 ° C that could cause pulp necrosis. Scanning electron microscopy results showed that after irradiation with different power lasers, the diameters of most dentinal tubules in the Nd:YAG laser group and the semiconductor laser group were narrowed or even melted, and the effect was better than that of the Nd:YAP laser group. Conclusion The treatment using Nd:YAP laser, Nd:YAG laser and semiconductor laser for dentin hypersensitivity will increase the temperature of the pulp chamber. However, the temperature rise is less than 5.5℃and that will not cause irreversible damage to the pulp tissue. Nd:YAG laser and semiconductor laser have better dentinal tubule blocking effect, which is more suitable for laser dentin desensitization treatment than Nd:YAP laser.

Objective To observe the missed diagnosis of invasive carcinoma under the microscope (ICUM) in high grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia (HSIL), and analyze associated factors influencing missed ICUM. Methods A retrospective study was performed on patients diagnosed with HSIL by colposcopy-guided biopsy and treated with loop electrosurgical excision procedure(LEEP)at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, from December 2014 to December 2016. They were non-pregnant, ≤50 years old and the cervical volume without obvious enlargement and exogenous surface without and ulcerative lesions. A total of 283 cases with early cervical cytology results, never received cervical traumatic treatment or cervical biopsy in another hospital before, and their colposcopic images were clear enough to reevaluate. The ultimate pathological diagnosis was based on the higher-level pathological diagnosis between the results of cervical biopsy and LEEP to evaluate ICUM missed in HSIL and the risk factors. Results (1) Among the 283 cases with HSIL diagnosed by colposcopy-directed biopsy,44 cases (15.5%,44/283) were missed diagnosis of ICUM, which consisted of 29 cases Ⅰa1, 4 cases Ⅰa2 and 11 cases Ⅰb1 in the ultimate pathology.(2)Analysis of associated factors for missed ICUM:univariate analysis showed that,as the age increased, the risk of missed ICUM also increased(the rates of missed diagnosis for<30, 30-39, 40-50 years were 7.7%, 11.5%, 22.0%, respectively;χ2=6.254, P=0.012 by trend test). The more the number of high-grade features, the higher risks(the rates of missed diagnosis for 1, 2, 3, 4 high-grade features were 10.2%, 17.6%, 23.8%, 30.8%, respectively;χ2=7.686,P=0.006 by trend test). The locations of HSIL were only endocervical, only ectocervical and mixed, the risk increased by this sequence(2.8%, 5.1%, 28.7%; χ2=26.193,P<0.01 by trend test). The rate of missed diagnosis for not completely visible squamocolumnar junction(SCJ)was higher than that of the completely visible one(22.3% vs 2.1%;χ2=19.680, P<0.01). The rate of missed diagnosis was higher for existing atypical vessels than those without(60.7% vs 10.6%;χ2=48.279, P<0.01). The rate of missed diagnosis for visible lesion size≥40 mm2 was higher than that of<40 mm2(27.3%vs 4.2%;χ2=28.921, P<0.01). The rate of missed diagnosis for the proportion of visible lesion size in ectocervical size ≥0.75 was higher than that of <0.75 (83.3% vs 14.1%;P<0.01). The rate of missed diagnosis for the maximum linear length of visible lesion≥10 mm was higher than that of<10 mm(46.9%vs 9.0%;χ2=44.473, P<0.01). But the different severity of cervical cytology before colposcopy was not associated with missed ICUM(P>0.05). Multivariable analysis found that visibility of SCJ, atypical vessels, visible lesion size and maximum linear length of visible lesion were associated with missed diagnosis of ICUM(all P<0.05). Conclusions The diagnostic value of HSIL by colposcopy is limited. Meanwhile, for the patients who are ≤50 years old with HSIL diagnosed by cervical biopsy, invisibility of SCJ, atypical vessels, visible lesion size and maximum linear length of visible lesion evaluated by colposcopy are the independent risk factors of missed ICUM. Thereby, it is necessary to take active intervention for HSIL with these risk factors.

Objective To analyze the influence of a dental caries phototherapy device using neodymium-yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) laser on the temperature of tooth pulp chamber of different sites and morphologies under different irradiation duration and power. Methods Fifty intact isolated teeth were collected and randomly divided into middle incisor group, upper right first premolar group, upper right second molar group, upper left first premolar group, and upper left second molar group. Each experimental group was irradiated according to the laser power 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 and 2.0 W, and the irradiation duration 30, 60, 90 s. The temperature rise of the pulp chamber was recorded with a thermocouple thermometer. Results After the laser irradiation, the temperature of the tooth pulp chamber increased, and the temperature rise was less than 5.5℃, i.e. the threshold leading to the dental pulp necrosis. Conclusions The use of laser to prevent dental caries will increase the temperature of the tooth pulp chamber, but the temperature rise in the range of 5.5 ° C is relatively safe and will not cause irreversible damage to the pulp tissue.
