Objective:To explore the effect of family function combined with positive suggestion on self-assessment and quality of life of patients with ischemic stroke.Methods:Totally 120 patients with ischemic stroke admitted to hospital from May 2018 to May 2019 were selected by experimental research method, and they were divided into control group and observation group according to the random alphabet, with 60 cases in each, the control group was given positive suggestion, while the observation group was given family function combined positive suggestion, the Activities of Daily Life (ADL), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the MOS item short form Health Survey (SF-36) were compared before and after nursing and nursing satisfaction.Results:Before nursing, the ADL scores of the observation group and the control group were (34.61±4.36), (35.58±4.82) points, GSES scores were (17.94±2.48), (17.38±2.62) points, SAS scores were (61.82±6.57), (61.37±6.64) points, SDS scores were (63.71±6.65), (63.28±6.94) points respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P> 0.05); after nursing, the ADL score of the observation group was (69.85±7.84) points, higher than (58.39±6.72) points of the control group, the GSES score was (24.25±2.69) points, higher than (20.48±2.31) points of the control group, the SAS score was (47.64±4.91) points, lower than (54.52±5.83) points of the control group, and the SDS score was (50.29±5.26) points,lower than (54.15±5.91) points of the control group ( t values were from 3.779 to 8.597, P< 0.05). There was no significant difference in SF-36 score between the two groups before nursing ( P> 0.05), and the improvement of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group after nursing ( t values were 2.037-3.656, P< 0.05). The nursing satisfaction of the observation group was 90.00% (54/60), higher than 75.00% (45/60) of the control group ( χ2 value was 4.675, P< 0.05). Conclusion:Family function combined with positive suggestion can significantly improve the life ability and self-efficacy of patients with ischemic stroke, relieve anxiety and depression, significantly improve the quality of life, and obtain satisfactory nursing effect.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors associated with hemorrhagic complications at the puncture site after femoral artery access cerebrovascular interventions and construct a bleeding risk scale.Methods:Two hundred and fifteen patients who underwent femoral artery puncture interventions in the neurointerventional department ward of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April to October 2020 were selected for the study, including 60 cases in the complication group and 155 cases in the control group. The patients′ general data, interventional procedure-related data and laboratory tests were analyzed univariately and then incorporated into a binary multi-factor logistic regression analysis to determine independent risk factors, and a bleeding risk scale was constructed according to the regression model.Results:Compared with the control group, there was a statistically significant increase in the incidence of women, diabetes mellitus, use of glucose-lowering drugs, proportion of (anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs) use and irritability in the complication group ( χ2 values were 4.94-15.81, all P<0.05); age, BMI, HbA1c, prothrombin time activity, and sheath size and operative time were higher than those of the control group, and prothrombin time and creatinine values were lower than those of the control group, with statistically significant differences ( t values of -6.25 to 2.80, respectively, all P<0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that gender ( OR=0.09, 95% CI 0.025-0.302), BMI ( OR=1.736, 95% CI 1.462-2.115), HbA1c ( OR=1.775, 95% CI 1.107-2.845), and use of anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs ( OR= 0.082, 95% CI 0.015- 0.448) and time to surgery ( OR=1.031, 95% CI 1.012-1.052) were independent risk factors for bleeding complications. In the risk scale: the total score was -3 to 13, and risk existed for a score ≥5. The sensitivity of this scale was 83.3%, the specificity was 92.3%, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.878 ( P<0.001, 95% CI 0.818 to 0.938). Conclusions:Female, high BMI, high HbA1c, anticoagulant/antiplatelet drug use, and long procedure time can increase the risk of bleeding complications at the femoral artery puncture. The predictive model has good predictive performance and can be extended for use.

Objective:To investigate the surgical treatment strategies of brachial plexus schwannomas protruding from the foraminal area to the thoracic outlet through anterior cervical approach, and to evaluate the curative effect.Methods:The clinical data of 8 patients treated in Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from July 2016 to December 2020 who underwent supraclavicular cervical "barb" incision for protruding into the thoracic outlet through anterior cervical approach were retrospectively collected, including 5 males and 3 females, aged (50.75±11.14) years old, ranging from 31-66 years old. And the key points of the operation, postoperative complications and postoperative follow-up were analyzed. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as mean±standard deviation( ± s), count data were described as numbers. Results:The tumors in all 8 cases were totally resected.The amount of bleeding during operation was (35.00±14.14) mL. No surgical complications such injury of pleura, aspneumothorax and hemothorax, except 2 cases which developed local sensory disturbance that improved that after neurotrophic treatment and hormonotherapy. All 8 patients were followed up by outpatient or telephone for 1-5 years, and cervical MRI review showed no tumor recurrence in situ.Conclusions:The anterior cervical approach with "barb type" incision above the neck clavicle is effective in excision of schwannomas protruding into the thoracic outlet, with less intraoperative injury, less blood loss, fast postoperative recovery.
