Objective To explore the differences of patient comfort and nursing workload between ultrasound guidance on upper arm placement of PICC and traditional placement of PICC, and to provide a reference for correct selection of catheter way. Methods Using a nonrandomized controlled study, a total of 1 116 patients were divided into the control group and the observation group, patients with traditional placement of PICC were set as the control group, and the patients with upper arm placement of PICC were named as the observation group. The patient comfort and workload of use and maintenance of PICC by nurses were compared between two groups. Results The incidence of catheter sliding out of PICC in the observation group was 1.9%(7/365), obviously higher than that of the control group, which was 0.3%(2/751), the difference was significant (χ2=8.37,P=0.007). The patient comfort had no statistical significance between two groups (t=2.13,P=0.082). The workload of use and maintenance of PICC in the observation group were (1.87±0.31) min and (9.16±1.07) min ,which were obviously higher than that of the control group [(0.85±0.16) min and(7.22±2.13) min] in winter (t=4.39, P=0.022;t=3.44, P=0.041), but there was no statistical significance between two groups in summer (P>0.05). Conclusions The workload of use and maintenance of PICC on upper arm placement was higher than traditional placement of PICC in winter, but the obvious differences of patient comfort and nursing workload in summer between the two PICC groups were not been found.

BACKGROUND: Study on bone tissue-engineered material is one of the most successful fields in tissue engineering, but the mechanism on synthesis of artificial bone has not been known in many aspects.OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of collagen and calcium phosphate (CP) in artificial bone synthesis.DESIGN: Single sample experiment was designed.SETTING: Material Research Room of Honghe University.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Material Research Room of Honghe University from July to August 2003. The materials included collagen (10 g/L acetic acid solution), calcium chloride, sodium dihydrogen phosphate (SDP), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), Tris, hydrochloric acid and deionized water (DI water).METHODS: Liquid nitrogen freezing and freeze-drying were used to prepare collagen-CP complexes A and B and the samples at different times during mineralization. UV spectrophotometer was used to determine the biomineralized dynamic curve of collagen-CP. Based on law of curve, the different times of sample collection were determined in preparation of electronic microscopic samples. According to electronic microscopic pictures and spectral data, mechanism analysis was carried on.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphology of collagen-CP complex and law of its structure with time changeRESULTS: ①Under agitation, collagen-CP complex A was sheaf-like or needle-like in structure manufactured with retarded neutralization. ②Under static state, with biomineralization, collagen-CP complex B was in layered structure at initial phase of mineralization, which was similar to the self-assembled structure of pure collagen and the molarratio of C, O, P and Ca was 7.26: 20: 0: 2. At the end of mineralization, the structure was strip-like in high density with a certain grains and very fine rills and the molar ratio of C, O, P and Ca was 11.02: 22.5:1.06: 2.CONCLUSION: At the early phase of biomineralization, collagen iscoordinated initially with calcium ion, calcium-carrier layered collagen template is formed with the self-assembling of collagen, and then phosphates is combined with calcium ion to manufacture calcium phosphate in the formed template. By controlling agitation and acting time, collagen complex material of reticular and spinal structure is obtained.
