Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective:To investigate intraoperative pathological findings and the interventional effects of "deep cervical lymphaticovenous anastomosis+" (dcLVA+) on deep cervical lymphatic drainage as well as the blood flow of carotid artery and jugular vein in elderly patients with cognitive impairment, and to put forward the thoughts based on the findings from the surgery.Methods:Between May 2024 and December 2024, retrospective analysis of Microsurgery Hospital, Fengcheng Hospital, Xi'an Medical College performed dcLVA+ between the deep cervical lymphatics or lymph nodes and jugular veins in 50 elderly patients with cognitive impairment (19 males and 31 females, aged 55-88 years with 69.94 years in average). Nine patients were found with Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) score at 1 (mild), 7 with CDR score at 2 (moderate) and 34 with CDR score at 3 (severe). Intraoperative observations based on literature reviews had identified anatomical relationships between the lymphatic sacs containing cervical lymphatic chain and the carotid sheath. The lymph node count, size, distribution, thickness of fat tissue and conditions of lymphatic vessels were documented. Ultrasound was used to compare the blood flow of carotid artery and jugular vein as well as the cross-sectional areas at the planes of hyoid and cricoid cartilage before and after the closure of incisions under anaesthesia in 39 patients. Correlation analyses for Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCa), Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and Agitation behavior score before and 1 week after surgery were performed using Spearman's correlation and Wilcoxon paired tests. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Postoperative follow-ups were conducted via the visit of outpatient clinic and WeChat and telephone interviews. Results:In surgery, the cervical lymphatic chain was found running within an almost enclosed sac surrounding the carotid sheath. There were enlarged lymph nodes, increased fat deposition, lymphatic dilation or fibrosis in the sac. The preoperative blood flow in the carotid artery at the planes of hyoid and cricoid cartilage in the 39 patients was recorded at 150.52 ml/min±40.33 ml/min and 358.29 ml/min±129.30 ml/min, while that in the jugular vein was at 172.50 ml/min±63.94 ml/min and 317.00 ml/min±105.21 ml/min, respectively, both were far lower than the normal blood flow. There were statistically significant differences in the blood flow of carotid artery and jugular vein before and after surgery ( P<0.01). It was found that the preoperative blood flow of the internal carotid artery at the plane of hyoid was positively correlated with the preoperative scores of MMSE ( P<0.01), MoCa ( P<0.05) and ADL ( P<0.01). The blood flow of the common carotid artery at the plane of cricoid cartilage was found significantly and positively correlated with the preoperative scores of MMSE ( P<0.05). It was also noted that the blood flow of the internal carotid artery at the plane of hyoid was significantly and positively correlated with the postoperative ADL ( P<0.01) but negatively correlated with the Agitation behavior score ( P<0.05). The blood flow of the common carotid artery at the plane of cricoid cartilage was significantly and positively correlated with the postoperative scores of MMSE and MoCa ( P<0.05). The blood flow of the internal jugular vein at the plane of hyoid was negatively correlated with the Agitation behavior score ( P<0.01). The cross-sectional area of carotid artery at the plane of left hyoid was significantly and positively correlated with the MMSE score ( P<0.05). Statistically significant differences were observed in MMSE, MoCa, ADL and Agitation behavior score before and after surgery ( P<0.01). Conclusion:dcLVA+ shows a certain therapeutic benefit to the elderly patients with cognitive impairment. The intraoperatively observed pathological changes in cervical lymphatic sacs affect deep cervical lymphatic drainage and the blood flow of carotid artery and jugular vein. Further studies are necessary to find out whether the findings from this study would be the specific pathological changes and the morbidity mechanisms among the elderly patients with cognitive impairment.

Uncovering the risk factors of pulmonary hypertension and its mechanisms is crucial for the prevention and treatment of the disease.In the current study,we showed that experimental periodontitis,which was established by ligation of molars followed by orally smearing subgingival plaques from patients with periodontitis,exacerbated hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in mice.Mechanistically,periodontitis dysregulated the pulmonary microbiota by promoting ectopic colonization and enrichment of oral bacteria in the lungs,contributing to pulmonary infiltration of interferon gamma positive(IFNγ+)T cells and aggravating the progression of pulmonary hypertension.In addition,we identified Prevotella zoogleoformans as the critical periodontitis-associated bacterium driving the exacerbation of pulmonary hypertension by periodontitis,and the exacerbation was potently ameliorated by both cervical lymph node excision and IFNγ neutralizing antibodies.Our study suggests a proof of concept that the combined prevention and treatment of periodontitis and pulmonary hypertension are necessary.

Objective:To explore the status quo of the readiness of evidence-based nursing practice for the maintenance and removal of children's central venous catheter (CVC) in 6 domestic medical institutions Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), analyze the obstacles faced by the application of CVC maintenance and removal evidence in PICU, so as to provide basis for formulating reform strategies.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. In December 2019, 169 nurses from PICU of 6 medical institutions in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Xiamen and Hefei were selected by convenience sampling for investigation. The General Information Questionnaire and Clinic Readiness to Evidence-based Nursing Assessment (CREBNA) were used to evaluate the readiness of clinical nurses to evidence, organizational environment and promoting factors in the process of evidence-based practice. A total of 169 questionnaires were issued, and 169 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 100%.Results:A total of 169 nurses were investigated in 6 evidence application sites. The total score of the multi center CREBNA was (136.96±15.33), which was 88.36% of the full score. The scores of the three dimensions were as follows: organizational environment (40.31±4.45), evidence dimension (53.43±6.14), and promoting factors (43.22±5.81). Four of the last five items in the score ranking were from the promoting factor, and the low score items in four places were all from the promoting factor.Conclusions:The best practice project of children's CVC maintenance in PICU is feasible. However, there are still some deficiencies in the preparation of various evidence application sites, especially in the promoting factors, which should be constantly improved to further promote and maintain the implementation of change.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of bowel preparation quality in hospitalized elderly patients, and to find the appropriate waiting time from the end of bowel preparation to the beginning of colonoscopy.Methods:Baseline and clinical data of elderly patients over 60 years old who underwent colonoscopy in the Tenth People′s Hospital, Tongji University from February 2021 to August 2021 were collected. Multivariate analysis was used to screen the factors that might affect the quality of bowel preparation in hospitalized elderly patients. Patients were grouped according to waiting time before colonoscopy. After eliminating confounding factors using propensity matching analysis, the difference of bowel preparation quality among groups was compared.Results:251 patients were included in the study. Multivariate analysis revealed that, hypertension ( OR=3.530, 95% CI 1.295-9.618), chronic constipation ( OR=3.302,95% CI 1.132-9.632), dietary compliance ( OR=0.161, 95% CI 0.070-0.371), medication and drinking water compliance ( OR=0.167, 95% CI 0.070-0.397), exercise compliance after medication ( OR=2.245, 95% CI 1.040-4.845), The frequency of defecation after medication ( OR=0.446, 95% CI 0.308-0.647) and waiting time ( OR=0.537, 95% CI 0.387-0.745) were important factors affecting the quality of bowel preparation in hospitalized elderly patients ( P<0.05). There were differences in bowel preparation quality between groups of waiting times. The overall quality of bowel preparation in 120-180 min group was significantly better than that in 241-300 min group, 301-360 min group and>360 min group ( P<0.05). The overall quality of bowel preparation in 181-240 min group was better than that in >360 min group ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences among other groups( P>0.05). The scores of cecum and ascending colon were the best in 120-180 min group, and the cleanliness of descending colon, sigmoid colon and rectum was significantly higher in 241-300 min group, 301-360 min group and > 360 min group. The scores of descending colon, sigmoid colon and rectum showed that the intestinal preparation quality of 181-240 min group was better than that of 301-360 min group and > 360 min group. Conclusions:The best examination time for elderly patients is about 180 minutes after bowelpreparation. Medical workers should flexibly guide the medication time to ensure that patients are in the best clean state of intestinal tract during examination.

Objective To investigate the incidence and related factors of postoperative hemorrhage, so as to provide data support for preventing its occurrence and developing reasonable risk assessment tools. Methods The retrospective analysis of clinical data of 50 patients with postoperative hemorrhage after surgical operation in a 3A hospital in Shanghai from January to December 2016 was conducted. A 1:2 matching case-control study was conducted to explore the risk factors of postoperative bleeding in surgical patients by univariate and multivariate regression analysis.Results The total number of surgical operations (excluding obstetrics and gynecology, five senses) was 18942. Postoperative hemorrhage occurred in 50 cases, including 6 deaths. The incidence of postoperative hemorrhage was 0.26％ and the mortality rate was 12％. The incidence of postoperative bleeding in the top four departments were gastrointestinal surgery (13 cases), hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery (11 cases), cardiac surgery (10 cases), neurosurgery (9 cases). The statistical analysis of binary Logistic in the case group and the control group showed that postoperative albumin<35g/L, postoperative AST abnormality, postoperative ALT abnormality, postoperative hypertension were independent risk factors of postoperative bleeding.Conclusions The incidence of postoperative bleeding in this hospital is relativelylow, but the mortality is relatively high. Medical staff should pay more attention to the patients undergoing gastrointestinal, liver, pancreas, heart and brain surgery. It is also necessary to pay more attention to the blood pressure, albumin and liver function of the patients after operation,and establish the evaluation of prevention of hemorrhage, which has a certain early warning effect on the prevention of postoperative hemorrhage.

Objective: To explore the effectiveness of Balint group on compassion fatigue among oncology nurses. Methods: From January to December 2016, 35 oncology nurses from one general hospital were enrolled. 18 cases were allocated in the observation group and 17 cases in the control group by computer randomization. Nurses in the observation group were received a total of 8 times Balint Group activities, with 2 times a month and 1.5 hours each time, which is aiming to discuss difficult cases encountered in the clinic to help nurses have a deeper experience and a better understanding of the emotions and behaviors, fantasies and needs between nurse-patient interaction. Nurses in the control group without intervention. All the Participants were requested to complete the survey of the Professional Quality of Life (ProQOL) , the Jefferson Scale of Empathy-Health Professionals (JSE-HP) , and the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) at pre and post intervention. Results: Before intervention, two group of nurses in age, working years, marriage, and education were not statistically significant (P>0.05). There was no difference in the scores of empathy, compassion satisfaction, secondary traumatic stress, and General health (P>0.05). After intervention, the scores of JSE-HP and its three dimensions of perspective taking, emotional care, and trans-positional consideration in the observation group had significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). The level of compassion satisfaction in the observation group was higher, and the general health status was lower (P<0.05). There was no statistically difference in the level of burnout and secondary traumatic stress between two groups (P>0.05) . Conclusion Balint group has a positive role in promoting nurses’empathetic skills, compassion satisfaction and mental health.
