Objective:To establish an analytical method for measuring the concentration of glucose in saliva by ion chromatography.Methods:The proteins in saliva were removed by thermal denaturation method, CarboPac PA20 (3×30 mm) was used as a protective column and CarboPac PA20 (3×150 mm) was used as an analytical column for ion chromatography analysis. Gradient elution was carried out with A: ultra-pure water, B: 250 mmol/L NaOH solution and C: 500 mmol/L NaAc solution. Pulsed ampere detector was used for detection.Results:This method had a good linear relationship in the range of 0.04 to 0.12 mg/L, with a linear relation coefficient of 0.9967. The detection limit of glucose was 2 μg/L, the mean value of the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the repeatability measurement was 0.75%, and the average spike recovery was 103.07%.Conclusion:This method is simple, sensitive, accurate and stable, and can be used for the determination of glucose concentration in saliva.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of the application of surface gastrointestinal pacing treatment in bedside blind placement of gastrointestinal intubation in patients with severe nervous system diseases and ultimately help clinical nursing staff optimize the intubation process and increase the success rate of post-pyloric placement.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled study. A total of 70 patients with severe nervous system diseases who were admitted to ICU of Jinhu People ′s Hospital from February 2022 to January 2023 were selected by successive sampling method and numbered according to the time sequence of admission, and were divided into The control group with 35 cases and observation group with 35 cases according to the random number table method. The control group used the routine bedside blind placement of gastrointestinal intubation and received metoclopramide intramuscular injection and gastric air injection to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, while the observation group received surface gastrointestinal pacing treatment to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis. The differences in success rate, incubation time and pain degree of post-pyloric placement of gastrointestinal intubation were compared between the two groups. Results:The success rate of post-pyloric placement was 51.42% (18/35) in the control group and 82.85% (29/35) in the observation group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=7.83, P<0.01). The incubation time of the control group was (15.83 ± 3.93) min, and the Critical Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT) scored (3.32 ± 0.63) points, while the incubation time of the observation group was (3.78 ± 0.81) min, and the CPOT scored (1.03 ± 0.22) points, the differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=13.16, 14.65, both P<0.01). Conclusions:The application of surface gastrointestinal pacing treatment in bedside blind placement of gastrointestinal intubation to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis in patients with severe nervous system diseases can increase the success rate of post-pyloric placement of gastrointestinal intubation, reduce incubation time, alleviate pain. All in all, it is worthy of clinical application.
