Objective To study the effects of ropivacaine on the duration of labor and mode of delivery in the primigravidas using patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA). Methods Retrospective analysis was performed. The 190 healthy, full-term, and single-fetus parturient primigravidas who received PCEA with 0.1% ropivacaine+fentanyl (1 ?g/ml ) were in the epidural analgesia group. Another 222 primigravidas who didnot receive PCEA were in the control group. The duration of labor and modes of delivery, and the neonatal Apgar scores in both two groups were recorded and evaluated. Results Those in the epidural analgesia group experienced a significantly longer first stage [(426?161) minutes], longer second stage [(54?27) minutes] and longer full duration of delivery [(489?166) minutes] than those in the control one [(409?170) minutes, (364?167) minutes and (37?22) minutes]. The rate of using pitocin in the epidural analgesia group (30.2 %) was significantly higher than that in the control group (4.1%). The cesarean section rate in epidural analgesia group (20.0 %) was lower than that in the control one (28.4%); while the rate of instrumental delivery in the epidural analgesia group (20.0%) was significantly higher than that in the control one (6.3%). In summary, there were significant differences between two groups in the duration of labor, the rate of using pitocin, the rate of instrumental delivery and the rate of cesarean section. But there were no differences found for those newborn who had Apgar scores less than 7 at the point of both one and five minutes (7.9% and 4.5%, 2.6% and 0.5% respectively). Conclusion Epidural ropivacaine labor analgesia lengthens the duration of labor and increases the rate of instrumental delivery, but it has no significant negative effects on the neonates.

The United Kingdom is the longest-serving community in the welfare states, and has been serving for more than sixty years so far. The construction of community care service supply model in the United Kingdom is deeply influenced by the neo-liberalism and neo-managerialism, which dominated the reform and development of pur-chasing community care services. Presently, China is actively promoting the government to purchase pension services of public health care combined with the long-term care, especially policy and determination of community-based de-velopment of an elders' service model. Based on the purchased services experience of the United Kingdom combined with the situation in China, this paper puts forward some suggestions such as the repositioning the role of the govern-ment, actively supporting the development of civil service organizations and perfecting the legal system of care serv-ices to be purchased, supporting the development of proposals to reduce the burden on the government and enhance the efficiency of care services through improving their quality.

Objective:To evaluate the hemostatic effect of self-expanding polyurethane foam in an animal model of fatal hepatic trauma and hemorrhage.Methods:The fatal liver trauma hemorrhage model with swine was established. Then the damage-controlled resuscitation was performed. Thirty minutes after injury, the experimental animals were randomly divided into the gauze packing group (GP), foam packing group (FP) and blank control group (BC). The survival time, vital signs, the bleeding volume, coagulation function and other lab indicators were recorded for 48 h. Liver histopathological examination was performed after death or execution.Results:All the three groups had severe hemorrhagic shock after modeling. The 48-h survival rate of the FP group and the GP group was significantly higher than that of the BC group (6/6 vs 4/6 vs 0/6). The average survival time of the FP group was not statistically different from that of the GP group [48 h vs (44.58±5.53) h, P>0.05], and was significantly longer than that of the BC group [48 h vs (1.64±0.17) h, P<0.01]. The bleeding volume of the FP group was significantly less than the GP group and BC group [(19.2±7.3) g/kg vs (41.3±8.6) g/kg, (51.5±7.3) g/kg, both P<0.01]. Compared with the GP group and the BC group, the cardiac output of the FP group was significantly improved [(5.00±0.53) L/min vs (4.13±0.41) L/min, (2.38±0.48) L/min, both P<0.05]. The coagulation function, liver and kidney function and blood lactate level of the FP group and the GP group were better than those of the BC group; the intra-abdominal pressure of the FP group was significantly higher than that in the GP group [(18.83±3.25) cmH 2O vs (3.83±1.47) cmH 2O, P<0.05]. There was no abnormal increased in intra-abdominal pressure in the BC group. According to the histopathology examination, there was no obvious secondary damage in the FP group. Conclusions:The application of self-expanding polyurethane foam for intraperitoneal packing to stop bleeding can effectively reduce the amount of bleeding in the fatal liver trauma hemorrhage model, effectively maintain vital signs, and improve the short-term survival rate.

The evaluation of disease perception, treatment compliance and community follow-up services were investigated and analyzed. Respondents were eventually included in 137 patients, 138 family members and 41 personnel.The interviewees were conducted with semi-structured interviews, the data were collected according to traditional methods, and the descriptive statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS 12.0.Results:(1)34.3% of patients and 32.6% of the family members were not fully aware of the disease.22.6% of the patients and 23.2% of the family members had a sense of ill shame. (2)26.3% of patients did not comply with treatment, 29.9% of patients had not insight, 53.3% of patients and 24.6% of family members on the side effects of drugs and addiction understood improperly, and, 35.0% of patients and 13.0% of the family had a misunderstanding of illness and using drugs. (3)29.2% of patients and 31.2% of their families were tired of taking long-term medication, 24.8% of patients and 21.0% of their families felt socially isolated, and, 17.5% felt unsupported and 18.8% of their families admitted that they did not care enough about patients. (4)31.4% of patients did not actively receive follow-up services, 37.2% of patients and 20.3% of family members did not cooperate with follow-up doctors, and, 21.2% of patients and 10.1% of family members were not satisfied with follow-up services. (5)The personnel of psychiatric care could basically grasp the conditions of patients in the jurisdiction and carried out follow-up services on a regular basis (90.2%), master emergency disposal methods (92.7%), and have carried out training (97.6%). However, the psychiatric practice of the personnel were lower than (58.5%) and most lying part-time (78.0%), the average length of service was 5.7±1.4 years. The personnel satisfaction with the community follow-up service was higher (95.1%), but most of them thought that the psychiatric care was more difficult (36.6%), and were dissatisfied with the multi-functional staff to undertake a number of public services (31.7%).Conclusion:The management treatment project of mental disorders services in Shantou City show initial results.The patients were satisfied with the community follow-up service, but the patients and their families still have low level of cognition, poor compliance, obvious negative emotions, and have concerns about drug treatment.It is necessary to strengthen the professionalization of personnel, to carry out early mental health education and rational emotional behavior training for patients and their families.
