Objective To evaluate the application efficacy of responsibility system for holistic nursing system in high-quality nursing service in the department of respiratory medicine.Methods Department of respiratory medicine unit which was the quality nursing service demonstrated unit in our hospital was selected.The nursing responsibility-bound grouping system was first performed and the nurse-incharge would provide the patients with whole and continuous nursing service.Before and 6 months after the application,the nursing job satisfaction was conducted and the nursing grouping system satisfaction was also evaluated among nurses and doctors.Results Six months after the application of nursing responsibility-bound grouping system,the patient satisfaction with nursing job was raised obviously in the unit.Conclusions The application of responsibility-bound grouping system can not only promote the activity but also mobilize the enthusiasm of nurses,and then high-quality nursing service was resulted.So the service system was worthy of clinical application.

Objective To explore the value of ambulatory electroencephalography (AEEG) monitoring in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of epilepsy.Methods 24-hour AEEG in 761 patients with epilepsy and 1327 patients with paroxysmal disorder was analyzed retrospectively.Results The positive finding of epileptiform discharge by AEEG was obviously higher than routine EEG (all P

Objective To investigate the effects of penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHCD) pretreatment on hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1α) expression in lung tissues in rats with acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).Methods One hundred and twenty female Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 180-220g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =40 each):control group (group C),ALI group and PHCD pretreatment group (group P).ALI was induced by intraperitoneal LPS 5 mg/kg in ALI and P groups.The equal volume of normal saline was given intraperitoneally in group C.Group P received intraperitoneal PHCD 2 mg/kg at 30 min before LPS administration.Eight rats in each group were chosen at 2,4,8 and 24 h after LPS administration,and the lung was removed for determination of HIF-1α mRNA expression in lung tissues by RT-PCR.Eight rats in each group were chosen at 6 h after LPS administration,and the lung was removed for determination of W/D lung weight ratio and IL-6 content (by ELISA) and for microscopic examination.Results The W/D lung weight ratio and IL-6 content at 6 h after LPS administration and HIF-1α mRNA expression at each time point after LPS administration were significantly higher in groups P and ALI than in group C (P ＜ 0.05),and lower in group P than in group ALI(P ＜ 0.05).The pathological damage was significantly ameliorated in group P as compared with group ALI.Conclusion PHCD can reduce LPS-induced ALI through down-regulation of HIF-1α expression in lung tissues and inhibition of the inflammatory response in rats.

BACKGROUND:Restoration of tendon integrity and tenacity, and maintenance of ankle joint flexibility, play a crucial role on the rupture of Achiles tendon. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the muscular force using isokinetic muscle strength test after the ruptured Achiles tendon is repaired, and to assess the repairing effect. METHODS: Muscle power including peak torque, peak torque/body weight, total work, average peak torque, set total work of flexor and extensor of 17 patients with Achiles tendon rupture were assessed after reconstruction using Biodex system 4 at 60 (°)/s and 120(°)/s. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The peak torque, peak torque/body weight, total work, average peak torque, set total work of flexor muscle group at the injured side were significantly decreased compared with uninjured side at 60 (°)/s and 120 (°)/s (P < 0.05). Isokinetic muscle strength test can reflect the muscular force after the ruptured Achiles tendon is repaired, and evaluate the repairing effect.

Objective To study the relation of different TCM syndrome types of hypertension combined with metabolic syndrome (MS) patients with retinal vascular changes and the urinary microalbumin, and provide objective basis for TCM treatment with syndrome differentiation. Methods Seventy-six patients of hypertension combined with MS (divided into four syndrome types) and 20 patients with simple hypertension were selected. General data, biochemical indexes, retinal vascular changes and the urinary microalbumin were detected and compared. Results In patients with hypertension combined with MS, blood lipid disorders and high blood sugar was mainly focused on the type of phlegm and blood stasis mutual and the type of qi and yin deficiency. The incidence of eye and kidney damage in hypertension with MS patients was higher than the simple hypertension patients. The positive rates of retinal blood vessels and renal damage in qi and yin deficiency type and phlegm and blood stasis mutual type were higher than that in other syndrome types. Conclusion Hypertension with MS patients should pay attention to the prevention and control of retinal vascular and renal vascular complications. Fundus examination and detection of early renal damage index can be used as the basis of TCM syndrome differentiation of hypertension with MS.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS).Methods Sixty-one DLS patients (DLS group) were enrolled in this study.The control group was formed by 61 patients with same gender and age matched.The lesion position was L4 in two groups.The correlation of intervertebral joint angle,degeneration degree,lumbosacral angle and lumbar spondylolisthesis were analyzed.Results The intervertebral joint and sagittal angle in DLS group was less than that in control group[(37.11 ± 7.52)° vs.(42.44 ± 7.61)°] (P ＜ 0.01).The lumbosacral angle between two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The degeneration degree between two groups had significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Intervertebral joint and sagittal angle and intervertebral joint degeneration degree have important roles in DLS.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of combining the sedation performed by propofol targeted concentration in-fusion with epidural anesthesia in patients undergoing total pelvic floor reconstruction.Methods A total of 80 eligible patients were recruited and were assigned randomly into the study group(n=40)and the control group(n=40).All patients in both groups were administered epidural anesthesia with the puncture and catheter placing in the space between the 2nd-3rd lumbar vertebras.After the epidural anesthesia,patients in the study group were administered propofol by targeted concentration infusion (TCI)system. The plasma concentration of propofol was modulated to obtain the BIS maintaining between 65-80,and the OAA/S maintaining at 3 scores.The propofol was continuously infused until closing the incision.Values of HR,MAP at different time points in the opera-tion were recorded,and the plasma concentrations of propofol,the incidences of adverse events were recorded.Results The HR and MAP of patients in the study group decreased at T1 (given the anesthetic),T2 (the beginning of the operation),T3 (the beginning of the operation),compared with those at T0 (before the anesthetic)and T4 (30 min after the operation)(P <0.05).The HR and MAP of patients in the control group elevated at T2 ,T3 ,compared with those at T0 and T4 (P <0.05).The HR of study group at T1 ,T2 , T3 and the MAP at T2 were lower than those in control group.In study group,two asphyxia patients were founded.The incidence of shivering in the study group was lower than that in control group (P =0.014).No statistical difference was found in the incidences of other adverse event between this two groups (P >0.05).BIS of study group was (73.3 ±4.8)-(76.1 ±3.4),and the plasma concentrations of propofol was(1.32 ± 0.29 )μg/mL - (1.52 ± 0.26 )μg/mL.Conclusion The combination of propofol sedation performed by TCI and epidural anesthesia could be safely and effectively used in patients undergoing total pelvic floor reconstruc-tion.
