Objective:To understand the barriers to active aging among elderly people in western China and provide reference for formulating targeted interventions.Methods:This study was a qualitative study. From September to December 2022, purposive sampling was used to select 15 elderly people from Chengdu as the research subject for semi-structured interviews. Data analysis was conducted using the Colizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:The barriers to the active aging of elderly people in western China included three themes and six sub-themes, namely low levels of health self-management (low level of health awareness, lack of healthy lifestyle), hindered social participation (low personal willingness to participate in society, weak social participation support system), and weak social security system (heavy burden of medical care, poor accessibility of multi-channel elderly care services) .Conclusions:There are many barriers in the active aging process of elderly people in the western region of China. While improving the elderly care system and expanding service supply, society should fully consider the needs of the elderly, exert their subjective initiative, create an active aging atmosphere, and promote the smooth realization of active aging for the elderly in western China.

Objective:To develop the supportive care information platform based on full cycle needs of patients and explore the application effect of platform in hemiplegia patients with ischemic stroke.Methods:Based on the supportive care scheme for patients with ischemic stroke in the previous study of the research group, combined with literature review and expert group discussion, the supportive care information platform version 1.0 was developed. After 5 patients with ischemic stroke hemiplegia tried for 3 weeks, it was optimized and upgraded to version 2.0 according to the use experience. From June to December 2020, 64 patients with acute ischemic stroke hemiplegia in the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University hospital were randomly divided into intervention group and control group, 32 cases in each group. Barthel Index and balance ability were compared between the two groups. The control group received supportive care plan, and the intervention group received supportive care information platform.Results:After the intervention, the scores of Barthel index in the intervention group were 85 (75,90), 95 (95,100) at 1 and 3 months of illness, which were significantly higher than 65 (55,75), 75 (70,85) in the control group ( P<0.05). After intervention, the scores of balance ability in intervention group were 37 (28,43), 48 (45,51) at 1 and 3 months after illness, which were significantly higher than 28 (16,36), 31(20,37) in control group ( P<0.05). After the intervention, the scores of stroke related knowledge in the intervention group one day before discharge, one month after illness and three months after illness were 14.97 ± 2.98, 19.00 ± 2.14, 22.81 ± 1.60, which were significantly higher than those in the control group (8.69 ± 1.64), (8.88 ± 1.52), (9.09 ± 1.61) ( t values were 109.37-1 169.84, P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of supportive care information platform can provide targeted nrusing measures for patients at different stages of disease development. The platform has good feasibility, and can significantly improve patients′ Barthel index, balance ability and stroke related knowledge, which shows that the platform has good feasihility and clinical application value.

This paper reviews the specific application of information technology in hospital workplace violence in the "Internet +" era from three aspects of pre-warning, in-process response and post control and analyzes the shortcomings of application of Internet technology in workplace violence in hospitals, in order to provide reference for further effective prevention of workplace violence in hospitals.

Objective:To explore supportive care needs of patients with stable stroke in the acute phase and provide guidance for effective supportive care through mixed-methods.Methods:A mixed-method study with convergent parallel design was used. A convenient sampling method was used to select neurological inpatients for questionnaire survey. At the same time, a purposive sampling was used to conduct semi-structured interviews with 15 stroke patients.Results:A total of 176 valid questionnaires were collected, and the average score of supportive care needs were 2.17±0.37, The top 3 were disease-related information needs (2.75 ± 0.40), daily life care needs (2.28 ± 0.51), and social support needs (2.26 ± 0.28). Knowing the causes of stroke ranked first in each entry. The theme of qualitative interviews included: assisting daily activities, management of impaired functions, early functional rehabilitation, disease-related knowledge, psychosocial support, and discharge guidance.Conclusions:Stroke patients have rich and high-level supportive care needs, and provide corresponding information needs based on patient needs. Implement early secondary prevention guidance to prevent stroke recurrence; cooperate with multidisciplinary teams to provide early rehabilitation, reduce functional impairment; timely identify negative emotions of patients, and jointly provide family with patients psychological support. Implement a case management model to promote full-course care for stroke patients.

Objective:To understand the cognition of experiencers and witnesses on workplace violence (WPV) in nurses and to analyze the differences among them so as to provide a theoretical basis for formulating intervention.Methods:From February to May 2018, totals of 26 nurses, experiencers and witnesses of WPV, at a hospital in Suzhou were selected as subjects by purposive sampling to carry out semi-structured interview with the method of descriptive qualitative study. Content analysis was used to the data.Results:Under different perspectives, the differences of nurses' cognition on WPV included three aspects involving subject responsibility attribution, pre-recognition in advance and organizational support of WPV. Experiencers thought that patients had great responsibilities on violence, WPV was difficult to identify, lack of organizational support. Witnesses showed that nurses and patients matched each other in responsibilities, WPV could be identified in advance, the ways of organizational support needed diversification.Conclusions:Under different perspectives, there are differences in nurses' cognition on WPV. Hospital managers should strengthen the building of security, and improve nurses' violence identification and coping capacity to reduce the incidence of hospital violent incidents.

Objective To evaluate the application value of virtual reality (VR) technology in the surgical treatment of coronary artery fistula (CAF) and abnormal origin of coronary artery (AOOCA). Methods From January 2014 to June 2018, with the assistance of virtual reality technology, 4 patients with CAF and 4 patients with AOOCA in the Department of Cardiac Surgery of our hospital underwent treatment method deciding and operation details planning. In the CAF patients, there was 1 male and 3 females and they were 8 years, 16 years, 62 years, and 65 years, respectively. In the AOOCA patients, there was 1 male and 3 females at age of 4-month, 2 years, 14 years, and 29 years, respectively. Results The virtual heart models in all 8 patients were well matched with the real heart. The spatial structure information of CAF/AOOCA and surroundings can be intuitively and fully shown by virtual reality technology in all patients. All of the 4 CAF patients repaired coronary artery incision, including 2 patients with autologous pericardium patch and 2 patients with direct suture. Of the 4 AOOCA patients, 3 underwent coronary directly transplantation but 1 underwent Takeuchi surgery. And 2 had mitral valve plasty at the same time. All the operations were completed successfully, with good recovery and no serious complications. Among the 4 CAF patients, 3 had no residual fistula, and 1 had minor residual fistula. Coronary arteries were all unobstructed in 4 patients of AOOCA; moderate and severe mitral regurgitation in 2 patients were significantly reduced after surgery. Conclusion VR allows doctors to understand the spatial structure information of CAF/AOOCA and surroundings before the operation, and assists them to make accurate treatment decisions and develop detailed surgical plans before the operation, ensuring its safety. Its clinical application value is significant.

Objective To investigate if the ratio of pulmonary valve annulus, which is the proportion of pulmonary valvular annulus size to total size of aortic valvular annulus and pulmonary valvular annulus, can better guide the choice of surgical approach than the value of z. Methods A retrospective analysis was made for 254 patients who underwent total correction of tetralogy of Fallot in Guangdong General Hospital between January 2016 and January 2018. There were 154 males and 100 females with an average age of 14.60±18.76 years. The patients were categorized into two groups, a transannular patch group (TAP, n=164) and a non-TAP group (n=90). The sizes of pulmonary and aortic valvular annulus were evaluated in each group, and the cutoff value of proportion of pulmonary valvular annulus for TAP was calculated. Results Both proportion of pulmonary valvular annulus and z-scores were smaller in the TAP group than those in the non-TAP group (0.29±0.06 vs. 0.36±0.06, P<0.001; –4.04±2.13 vs. –2.06±1.84, P<0.001, respectively). In receiver operating characteristics analyses, proportion of pulmonary valvular annulus and the z-score cutoff values were 0.353 (area under the curve 0.781, 95%CI 0.725–0.831) and –2.13 (area under the curve 0.766, 95%CI 0.709–0.817), respectively, demonstrating that the proportion of pulmonary valvular annulus was a more powerful diagnostic tool as a predictor of TAP. Conclusion Our results suggest that the proportion of pulmonary valvular annulus is an effective predictor for TAP and can be easily applied to clinical practice.

Objective     To analyze the use of modified pericardial oblique sinus approach in surgical repair for total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in neonates. Methods     Between May 2005 and December 2015, 67 consecutive neonates with supracardiac or infracardiac type total anomalous pulmonary venous connection who underwent surgical repair in our institute were included in this study. The patients are divided into three groups according to the different approaches including a sulcus approach group (6 patients), a superior approach group (14 patients), and a modified pericardial oblique sinus approach group (47 patients). There were 53 males and 14 females at median age of 12.5 (7.0, 20.5) d.  Results     The time of cardiopulmonary bypass [88 (80.0, 107.0) min vs. 135 (121.0, 157.0) min, P<0.05] and aortic cross clamping of the modified pericardial oblique sinus approach group was significantly shorter than that of the sulcus approach group [45 (39.0, 53.0) min vs. 80 (73.0, 85.0) min, P<0.05]. Perioperative mortality (2.1% vs. 28.6%, P<0.05) was significantly lower in the modified pericardial oblique sinus approach group than that in the superior approach group. The long-term mortality (4.3% vs. 60.0%, P<0.05) was significantly lower in the modified pericardial oblique sinus approach group than that in the sulcus approach group or the superior approach group . The rate of pulmonary venous stenosis was significantly lower in the modified pericardial oblique sinus approach group than that in the sulcus approach group (2.1% vs. 50.0%, P<0.05) or superior approach group (2.1% vs. 35.7%, P<0.05).  Conclusions     In surgical correction of neonatal supracardiac and infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous, compared with the traditional surgical approach, the modified pericardial oblique sinus pathway can provide excellent surgical space and has a good surgical prognosis.
