Objective:To explore the journey map of patients with chronic constipation during fecal microbiota transplantation.Methods:This study adopted phenomenological methods. From October to December 2023, purposive sampling was used to select chronic constipation follow-up patients who underwent fecal microbiota transplantation at the Intestinal Microecology Center of Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital as respondents for semi-structured interviews. Colaizzi 7-step analysis method and NVivo 11.0 software were used for data analysis.Results:A total of 15 interviewees were interviewed. During fecal microbiota transplantation, the journey map of constipation patients included stages, mood changes, touchpoints, themes, emotional experiences and opportunities. The patient's experience and needs were summarized into three themes and ten sub-themes, including pre-transplant adaptation disorders to new environments (unfamiliarity and confusion-admission coordination disorders, anxiety and expectations-diverse complex emotions, puzzle and helplessness-asymmetric doctor and patient information), effectiveness-related psychological and social experiences in transplantation (attention and expectations-longing for positive efficacy, perception of benefits and risk avoidance, shame and inferiority-treatment stigmatization experience, questioning and despair-unrealized expectations, treatment resistance-sensitive economic burden), post-transplant transition dilemmas (inaccessible medical services-lack of continuous treatment and nursing, disease recurrence troubles) .Conclusions:This study visualizes the experiences and needs of constipation patients during microbiota transplantation through a patient journey map and identifies multidimensional issues and needs of patients. Clinical medical and nursing staff should pay attention to the needs of patients at different stages of the treatment process when formulating intervention programs to improve the quality of fecal microbiota transplantation nursing.

Objective To explore the dilemmas faced by surrogate decision-makers of severe stroke patients in treatment decision-making,and to provide a basis for developing decision support strategies.Methods From April to December 2023,through phenomenological qualitative research with 16 surrogate decision-makers with severe stroke patients from ICU of the department of neurology in a tertiary hospital in Jing'an District,Shanghai.semi-structured in-depth interviews were used to examine the perceptions of decision-making on surrogate.Data were analyzed via Braun's style of thematic analysis.Results 4 themes and 10 sub-themes were identified.Theme 1:negative emotional dilemmas(urgent decision-making leads to anxiety,fear,and unknown stroke trajectory increases the sense of uncertainty).Theme 2:supportive environment dilemmas(lack of information support delays decision-making;lack of family support increases decision-making stress;insufficient economic support increases the burden of decision-making).Theme 3:the dilemma of weighing the pros and cons(difficult trade-offs between risk and reward,tough decisions between reality and ethics,conflicting choices of life and dignity).Theme 4:preference management dilemmas(practical difficulties in adhering to patient preferences,impediments to decision-making due to unknown patient preferences).Conclusion Surrogate decision-makers of severe stroke patients face multiple decision-making dilemmas.Healthcare professionals should provide emotional support in multiple ways and comprehensive support to reduce the decision-making dilemmas experienced by surrogate decision-makers,as well as implement death education for surrogate decision-makers and promote advance care planning to reduce their decision-making stress.

Results:From June to December 2018, clinical pharmacists reviewed 19 084 outpatient and emergency prescriptions and 10 607 inpatient prescriptions. The unqualified rates of outpatient and emergency prescriptions and inpatient prescriptions dropped from 16.52% and 23.28% in June to 4.45% and 13.80% in December, respectively. Logistics regression analysis showed that the rate of unqualified reviews of outpatient and emergency prescriptions was lower than that of inpatient prescriptions, and the rate of unqualified prescriptions in hospital was significantly lower than that in community health service centers; the rate of unqualified prescriptions for auxiliary drugs and nutritional drugs was significantly lower than that of antibacterial drugs.Conclusions:The prescription reviews of key monitored drugs can effectively promote the rational use of drugs. In the future, it is recommended to strengthen technical support for community health service centers and professional training for clinicians and pharmacists.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of X-N advancement flap in repairing pressure ulcer on the buttock or back.Methods:From June 2018 to June 2019, 20 patients with grade Ⅳ pressure ulcers on the buttock or back were hospitalized and treated in the Department of Traumatology, Burns and Plastic Surgery of Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, including 15 males and 5 females, aged 48-89 years. The area of the patient′s wound was 8 cm×5 cm-15 cm×12 cm after debridement, and all were repaired with the X-N advancement flap designed by the author. The flap was designed according to the direction of skin relaxation on both sides of the wound, and the skin was incised in X-shape and sutured in N-shape. The width and advancement distance of the flap were recorded, and the ratio of the advancement distance to the width of the flap was calculated. The flap survival, complication, and follow-up were observed and recorded.Results:The width of the flap was (5.9±1.2) cm, the advancement distance of the flap was (10.3±2.5) cm, and the ratio of the advancement distance to the width of the flap was 1.8±0.4. All the flaps survived, and none of the flaps had blood flow disorder. Local dehiscence occurred in the flap of one patient 1 week after surgery, which was healed after laying on the floating bed, strengthened care, and wound dressing change. The flap of one patient developed infection 5 days after surgery, which was healed after partial suture removal, smooth drainage, and replacement with sensitive antibiotics. The wounds of the remaining 18 patients were all cured. After 3 months of follow-up, the flaps survived well with good elasticity and texture.Conclusions:The X-N advancement flap can make the skin and soft tissue move forward effectively. It is simple and effective to repair pressure ulcers on the back or buttock of patients with this flap, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
