Objective:To explore the development process of family resilience in children with congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) and to understand the long-term challenges and coping strategies that CPT imposes on the families of affected children.Methods:This study combined purposive sampling and theoretical sampling. It selected 15 caregivers of CPT children from Hunan Children's Hospital for semi-structured interviews. Grounded theory was used to analyze the interview results.Results:The development of family resilience in CPT children's families occurred in three stages: pre-formation stage, formation stage, and maintenance stage. In facing negative emotions and family challenges, caregivers first needed to rebuild their inner beliefs. They then adjusted the family organizational model, adopted open and inclusive communication, and actively sought external support to foster the development of family resilience. Ultimately, caregivers were able to self-regulate their emotions, accumulate caregiving experience, and begin to shift their life perspective.Conclusions:The development of family resilience in CPT children's families is a dynamic, multi-stage process with interactions of multiple factors. Healthcare providers should offer professional health guidance according to the different stages of family development. Moreover, the government and schools should increase their attention and support, working together with families and healthcare providers to enhance family resilience for children with CPT.

Severe infection is a significant threat to patient safety and survival.As the main treat-ment for hospital acquired infections,meropenem is limited in its effectiveness due to the emergence of drug resistance,especially after long-term use of antibiotics.Therefore,optimizing the efficacy of an-tibiotics such as meropenem and avoiding microbi-al resistance has become an urgent issue to be ad-dressed.Therapeutic drug monitoring(TDM),as an important tool for achieving personalized drug ad-ministration,is increasingly recognized as an impor-tant strategy for optimizing antibiotic concentra-tion,avoiding treatment failure and toxicity in criti-cally ill patients and patients with renal insufficien-cy.By reviewing the current application status,pharmacokinetics,and TDM guidance of meropen-em,clinical references are provided for the treat-ment of critically ill patients and patients with renal insufficiency,and guidance and support are provid-ed for optimizing antibiotic treatment.

Objective:To explore the application effect of biofeedback functional electrical stimulation (BF-FES) combined with vaginal hysterectomy (TVH) in elderly patients with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) .Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 92 elderly POP patients admitted to the hospital from Jul. 2020 to Dec. 2022. They were divided into a study group (45 cases) and a control group (47 cases) using a random number table method. The control group received TVH treatment and underwent routine pelvic floor rehabilitation training after surgery; The research group received BF-FES treatment on the basis of the control group. All patients were treated continuously for 4 weeks and followed up for 6 months. The surface electromyographic values, three-dimensional pelvic floor ultrasound parameters, and urodynamic indicators between the two groups were compared before treatment and at 4 weeks of treatment. The results of the 1-hour urinary pad test before treatment, at 4 weeks of treatment, and at 3 and 6 months of follow-up were compared.Results:The surface electromyographic values of the two groups of patients at each stage of treatment for 4 weeks were higher than those before treatment. The surface electromyographic values of the study group at rest, rapid contraction, tense contraction, endurance contraction, and post rest stages were higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the mobility of the bladder neck in both groups was higher than those before treatment, while the posterior angle and rotation angle of the urethra and bladder were lower than those before treatment; The mobility of the bladder neck in the study group was higher than that in the control group, while the posterior angle of the urethra and bladder, as well as the rotation angle of the urethra were lower than those of the control group ( P<0.05). The maximum urine flow rate, maximum bladder volume, and average urine flow rate of the two groups after 4 weeks of treatment were higher than those before treatment, while residual urine volume was lower than that before treatment; The maximum urine flow rate, maximum bladder volume, and average urine flow rate in the study group were were higher than those in the control group. The residual urine volume in the observation group was lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, 3 months of follow-up, and 6 months of follow-up, the increase in 1-hour urine pad weight of patients in the two groups gradually decreased compared to that before treatment, and the study group was lower than the control group ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:BF-FES combined with TVH can significantly enhance pelvic muscle strength, improve pelvic floor ultrasound parameters and urodynamic indicators in elderly POP patients, and have a significant effect on treating urinary incontinence in patients.
