Objective:To investigate the current status of discharged patients at risk of pressure injury and analyze risk factors of pressure injury.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, 54 medical alliance units of Chongqing Fuling Central Hospital were selected for a cross-sectional survey. Patients at risk of pressure injury when discharged from the hospital and their caregivers were selected as the research objects from August 2019 to June 2020. The general demographic data sheet, clinical test data sheet, Braden Pressure Ulcer Risk Assessment Scale, Barthel index, and Family Caregiver Task Inventory (FCTI) were used for investigation. In this study, a total of 409 questionnaires were issued and 409 were effectively received, with an effective recovery of 100%.Results:There were 224 patients (54.8%) at light risk of pressure injury, 74 patients (18.1%) at moderate risk, 89 patients (21.8%) at high risk and 22 (5.4%) patients at extreme risk. The differences in general demographic data, clinical test data and self-care ability grade of 409 patients were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The FCTI scores of caregivers for patients with different risk levels were compared, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The results of ordered logistic regression analysis showed that white blood cell count ( OR=1.103, 95% CI: 1.006-1.209, P=0.035) , care ability of caregivers ( OR=1.060, 95% CI: 1.017-1.104, P=0.005) , fecal incontinence ( OR=14.112, 95% CI: 2.505-79.497, P=0.003) , indwelling catheter ( OR=3.111, 95% CI: 1.332-7.269, P=0.009) , severe dependence ( OR=15.705, 95% CI: 2.655-92.918, P=0.002) were risk factors for the risk of pressure injury in discharged patients. Conclusions:Among discharged patients with Braden score less than or equal to 18 points, there are 45.2% (185/409) patients with moderate risk of pressure injury and above. It is necessary to focus on discharged patients with high levels of white blood cells, weak care ability of caregivers, indwelling catheters and self-care ability of heavy dependence grade to prevent pressure injuries.

OBJECTIVE:To summarize general regularity and characteristics of amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity,and to provide reference for rational use of amiodarone and avoiding the occurrence of ADR. METHODS:Retrieved from CNKI,VIP and Wanfang database,individual case report literatures about amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity were collected during 1990-2016. The included cases were analyzed statistically. RESULTS:A total of 19 related literatures were collected,involving 20 cases of amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity. Among them,the patients older than 60 years old accounted for 75.0% with ratio of male to female 3:1. 75.0% patients had used medicine more than 1 month when pulmonary toxicity occurred. The dose of amiod-arone in 17 patients ranged 200-400 mg/d. Six patients died,accounting for 30.0%. CONCLUSIONS:Pulmonary toxicity induced by amiodarone may be related to patients'gender,age,dose and medication time. The mortality of it is in relative high level. Med-ical staff should pay attention to it,regularly monitor and process it timely.

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer 2017;20(11):789-792
Background and objective Lung adenoid cystic carcinoma is a kind of rare lung cancer. Diagnosis and treatment is not enough understandable for them. We collected and analyzed 4 cases of lung adenoid cystic carcinoma for broadening the sight of this disease. Methods Retrospectively analysed the 4 cases we collected from Hunan Cancer Hospital Between January 2012 and December 2016. We depicted the pathology, immunohistochemical, epidermal growth factor recep-tor (EGFR) mutation and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) arrangement in these cases. And the methods of the diagnosis and treatment were analyzed. Results Lung adenoid cystic carcinoma is usually located in the airway, EGFR mutation and ALK arrangement is rare in this disease. Generally the metastasis of the lung cancer occurred in the advanced stage. The prognosis is good if the mass could be resected completely. Conclusion Diagnosis of the lung adenoid cystic carcinoma depends on patho-logical experiments, surgery is the main treatment in the early stage, radiotherapy and chemotherapy is an advisable therapy in the advanced stage. And the prognosis of this kind of lung cancer is better than small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer.
