Objective:To explore the feasibility and safety of sodium bicarbonate solution for flushing in preventing fibrin sheath occlusion in peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC), providing a reference for PICC maintenance.Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted from June 2022 to September 2023. Convenience sampling was used to select 96 patients who underwent PICC at the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Guangxi Medical University. The patients were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group. Both groups performed grip strength exercises using a grip ball on the catheterized upper limb. During catheter maintenance, both groups used 10 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride solution for pulsed flushing. The control group used 10 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride solution for positive pressure flushing, while the observation group used 3 ml of 5% sodium bicarbonate solution for positive pressure flushing. The incidence of "mechanical valve" and catheter occlusion, as well as blood bicarbonate concentration and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, were recorded on the first day and at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 months after catheterization.Results:A total of 92 PICC patients were included, with 45 in the control group, 28 males and 17 females, aged (43.80 ± 2.21) years old, and 47 in the observation group, 29 males and 18 females, aged (43.80 ± 2.25) years old. The total incidence of "mechanical valve" in the observation group was 2.1% (1/47), lower than the control group′s 26.7% (12/45), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=11.41, P<0.05). The incidence of catheter occlusion in the observation group was 2.1% (1/47), lower than the control group's 15.5% (7/45), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=5.22, P<0.05). The IL-6 levels in the observation group at 2, 3, 4, and 5 months after catheterization were (4.53 ± 0.62), (4.68 ± 0.59), (4.76 ± 0.57), and (4.83 ± 0.53) ng/L, respectively, lower than the control group (4.83 ± 0.59), (4.95 ± 0.54), (5.21 ± 0.48), and (5.63 ± 0.57) ng/L, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.26-6.86, all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in blood bicarbonate concentration between the two groups at different time points (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Sodium bicarbonate solution for flushing can effectively prevent fibrin sheath blockage of PICC and reduce serum IL-6 levels, making it a safe and effective flushing method.

The clinical practice teaching reform of pediatrics based on TBL combined with medical simulation teaching model was carried out. TBL teaching plan writing under the model of medical simulation teaching was researched. The principles, requirements, contents and procedures of compiling teaching plans were formed. Emphasis should be placed on medical simulation teaching, team cooperation, humanistic quality education and humanistic skills training. The purposes of the reform were to achieve standardized operation skills, improve clinical ability, ensure medical safety, and improve the quality of medical purposes, but still the reform need further improvement in the teaching practice.

The web-based PBL teaching plan in pediatrics embodies the network learning environment and learning requirements.The basic design unit is a complete real case with certain width and depth,which can stimulate the students' interests of participation and guide students into a predetermined learning area to achieve desired learning objectives.The article dwelled on the compilation and implementation of the teaching plan of children bronchopneumonia.The first part:teachers showed the case in PBL site and proposed the questions.Students made the Powerpoint after studying and discussing in groups by PBL teaching website,QQ group,SMS platform,etc.The second part:students reported and discussed in groups; the teacher provided the new information and put forward the following-up problems; students consulted the documents and materials through the network again; finally teachers made comments on the results.During the teaching,network should be fully utilized and the questions should be proposed progressively at different levels.Teacher should play a guiding role and emphasize the students' autonomous learning.
