Objective To investigate the influence of systematic health education on the disease cogni-tion and behavior of treatment compliance in patients with infectious diseases. Methods Patiens with infec-tious diseases in our department were divided into the control group(142 patients) and the experimental group (136 patients). The control group received common health education, the experimental group was given addi-tional knowledge education about infectious disease based upon routine education. The two groups were inves-tigated before and after intervention by adopting self-designed investigation scale.The cognition rate of disease and the rate of behavior of treatment compliance were compared by χ2 test. Results The cognition rate of disease and the rate of behavior of treatment compliance in the experimental group were higher than those of the control group. Conclusions Systematic health education can not only increase degree of disease cogni-tion but also improve behavior of treatment comphanee in patients with infectious diseases.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the significance of Entecavir(ETV) in the treatment of chronic serious hepatitis B(HBV).METHODS: 54 patients with chronic serious hepatitis B were assigned to receive combined therapy in which antiviral drugs such as interferon and(or) nucleoside(acid) analogues antiviral drugs were excluded(control group,n=26) or combined therapy in combination with entecavir(0.5 mg?d-1) qd(treatment group,n=28).The course of treatment in both groups were 6 weeks.The hepatic function,HBV markers and HBV-DNA quantitation were deteted every two weeks.The improvement rate of patients after the completion of treatment were recorded.RESULTS: In the follow-up of six weeks,serum HBV-DNA and total bilirubin levels decreased markedly,and significant difference was noted between compared with the control group;ALT,AST,ALB and PT decreased in both groups,but the differnces between the two groups were not significant;there was no signficnant differnce in improvement rate between the treatment group and the control group(89.3% versus 84.6%).CONCLUSION: Entecavir can rapidly lower serum HBV-DNA level,downregulate bilirubin level,improve liver function,improve patients prognosis in patients with hepatitis B,thus it can be used to treat serious hepatitis B.However,used in short term,the survival rate of patients with severe hepatitis B can hardly be improved.

Objective:To investigate the effect of early enteral nutrition (EN) standardized treatment process management on the ventilation treatment effect and prognosis of patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) on invasive mechanical ventilation.Methods:Forty-three patients with AECOPD on invasive mechanical ventilation admitted to Shenzhen Baoan District People's Hospital from January 2017 to December 2018 were enrolled. According to the start time of the continuous quality improvement project of nutritional support treatment for critically ill patients in the hospital, 20 patients from January 1st to December 31st in 2017 were enrolled in the routine EN group, and 23 patients from January 1st to December 31st in 2018 were enrolled in the early EN group. In the early EN group, when the patient was hemodynamically stable within 24 hours after intensive care unit (ICU) admission and there was no contraindication for EN, early trans nasal intestinal EN was started, and the infusion rate was adjusted or parenteral nutrition was added according to the EN tolerance score. The target feeding amount was 104.6-125.5 kJ·kg -1·d -1, and achieve complete EN. The conventional EN group started EN after patients had experienced the early stress stage, the vital signs were stable, and 48 hours after ICU admission. The management process was the same as the early EN group. The ventilation indicators including rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI), arterial blood pH value, arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO 2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), and base excess (BE) at weaning, PaCO 2, CO 2 retention rate at 2 hours after weaning, as well as critical management indicators including the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), duration of invasive mechanical ventilation, length of ICU stay, total hospitalization cost and re-intubation rate between the two groups were compared. Results:After the early EN standardized treatment process management, the RSBI at weaning of the patients in the early EN group was significantly lower than that in the conventional EN group (times·min -1·L -1: 36.68±16.12 vs. 52.63±14.81, P < 0.05), but no significant difference in pH value, PaO 2, PaCO 2 or BE was found as compared with the conventional EN group. The PaCO 2 and CO 2 retention rate at 2 hours after weaning in the early EN group were significantly lower than those in the conventional EN group [PaCO 2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 52.48±7.62 vs. 58.32±8.43, CO 2 retention rate: (10.25±2.86)% vs. (18.46±3.21)%, both P < 0.05]. Compared with the conventional EN group, the incidence of VAP [8.7% (2/23) vs. 15.0% (3/20)], duration of invasive mechanical ventilation (hours: 52.64±14.81 vs. 53.78±12.75), length of ICU stay (days: 4.92±1.26 vs. 5.24±1.84), total hospitalization costs (thousand Yuan: 20.9±4.8 vs. 21.0±6.9) and re-intubation rate [13.0% (3/23) vs. 20.0% (4/20)] were slightly decreased in the early EN group without statistically significance (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:The management of early EN standardized treatment process for patients with AECOPD on invasive mechanical ventilation may alleviate the respiratory muscle fatigue status, and does not increase the complications.
