OBJECTIVE To optimize the venipuncture disinfection procedures for the patients with psoriasis by modifying the skin pretreatment,number of times of disinfection and action time,evaluate the disinfection effects before and after the modification and observe the impact on skin barrier function.METHODS A total of 78 patients with psoriasis who were hospitalized in Air Force Medical Center of Special Medicine from Jan.2024 to Mar.2025 were enrolled in the study and were randomly divided into the control group and the study group,with 39 cases in each group.Both groups were disinfected with povidone iodine swabs.The control group was treated with a single clockwise spiral wipe centered on the puncture site,and the total time of embrocation and drying time was 60 s;the study group was treated with the modified disinfection method'pretreatment-bidirectional disinfec-tion-120-second drying',which was unidirectional wiping of puncture site skin of hand back with sterile swab in-filtrating with normal saline,a single clockwise spiral wipe centered on the puncture site,counter-clockwise wipe for two times,the total time of embrocation and drying 120 s in total.The skin specimens were collected from the puncture sites for culture and identification of pathogens before the disinfection and after the drying,and the trans-epidermal water loss(TEWL)volume was detected by TewameterTM 300 instrument.RESULTS Totally 16 types of pathogens were isolated from the two groups of patients before the disinfection,among which Staphylococcus spp was dominant.The bacterial colony counts were[26.00(8.00,74.00)]CFU/cm2 in the study group before the disinfection,[41.00(13.00,94.00)]CFU/cm2 in the control group,and there was no significant difference(P=0.081).The bacterial colony counts of the two groups were lower after the disinfection and drying than before the disinfection(P＜0.001),and the bacterial colony counts of the study group were[0.00(0.00,1.00)]CFU/cm2,lower than[1.00(0.00,4.00)]CFU/cm2 of the control group(P=0.042).The TEWL value of the two groups was greater after the disinfection than before the disinfection(P＜0.001),however,there was no between-group difference(P=0.933).CONCLUSION The modified disinfection procedure has more advantages in eradicating pathogens without increasing damage to skin barrier,it provides safer disinfection plans for the patients with psoriasis and is worthy to be promoted in the hospital.

Objective: Traditional uterine manipulator is considered as the main reason for short survival of patients with early-stage cervical cancer during minimally invasive surgery. This study aims to assess the sealing effect of magnetic-sealing uterine manipulators (MUMs) in isolated uteruses. Methods: The study was performed on isolated uterus from patients with early-stage cervical cancer who underwent open abdominal radical hysterectomy between November 2019 to April 2021. Right-angle forceps closure tests (groups 1 and 3) were defined as control tests. One experimental MUM closure test (group 2) and 2 control tests were respectively carried out in each of the isolated uterus. DNA ploidy analysis system was used to observe exfoliated cells. Statistical analysis was performed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test to assess the sealing effect of MUM. Results: We identified 36 patients. No regional node metastasis was discovered and only one tumor was larger than 4.0 cm in diameter. The mean of exfoliated tumor cells in groups 1, 2, and 3 were 1, 1, and 2, respectively. There was no significant difference in the quantity of exfoliated cells between groups 1 and 3 (p=0.476), so the results of the 2 groups were merged. Subsequently, a significant difference was observed between combined right-angle forceps closure tests and MUM closure tests (p=0.022). Conclusion The sealing effect of MUM was better than that of right-angle forceps. MUM can effectively seal cervical cancer cells in the cup cover, avoiding the dissemination of tumor cells.
