Objective:To study the clinical characteristics of ureaplasma urealyticum (UU) infection in preterm infants with gestational age <34 weeks.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2021, premature infants with gestational age <34 weeks admitted to neonatal department of our hospital were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. UU-DNA from respiratory tract samples were examined using quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction method. The infants were assigned into UU (+) group and UU (-) group. Perinatal factors and clinical characteristics were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 182 preterm infants were enrolled, including 59 cases (32.4%) in UU (+) group and 123 (67.6%) in UU (-) group. UU (+) group had significantly lower gestational age and birth weight and significantly higher incidences of vaginal delivery, premature rupture of membranes (PROM) >18 h and maternal chorioamnionitis than UU (-) group ( P<0.05). Compared with UU (-) group, UU (+) group had significantly higher leucocyte count, neutrophil count and interleukin-6 at 1, 24 and 72 h after birth ( P<0.05). No significant differences existed in C-reactive protein and procalcitonin between the two groups at each time point ( P>0.05). In UU (+) group, the incidences of intrauterine pulmonary infection and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) were higher and the incidence of respiratory distress syndrome was lower than UU (-) group ( P<0.05). No significant differences existed in the incidences of intraventricular hemorrhage, periventricular leukomalacia, feeding intolerance, necrotizing enterocolitis, retinopathy of prematurity between the two groups ( P>0.0 5). UU (+) group had significantly longer duration of oxygen therapy than UU (-) group ( P<0.05). No significant differences existed in the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation and hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Preterm infants <34 weeks with positive UU in respiratory tract secretions have higher incidences of vaginal delivery, PROM>18 h and maternal chorioamnionitis. Leukocyte and neutrophil count and interleukin -6 are higher in these infants. They need prolonged oxygen therapy and have increased risks of intrauterine pulmonary infection and BPD.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of stent-assisted coil embolization in acute intracranial ruptured wide-necked aneurysms, and explore the safety of different antiplatelet drug regimens during perioperative period and the risk factors for prognoses.Methods:A perspective multicenter study was performed. A total of 417 patients with intracranial ruptured wide-necked aneurysms treated by stent-assisted coil embolization in Neurosurgery Departments of 4 hospitals (First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University [ n=41], Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University [ n=111], Tangdu Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University [ n=100], and Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University [ n=165]) from June 2017 to January 2020 were included. According to the different antiplatelet drugs regimens used in perioperative period, these patients were divided into loaded clopidogrel group ( n=87), loaded clopidogrel combined with aspirin group ( n=212), and tirofiban group ( n=118). Clinical data and perioperative complications of 3 groups were compared. Modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the prognoses of patients at discharge; differences of clinical data between the poor prognosis group and good prognosis group were compared. Independent risk factors for prognoses of patients with intracranial ruptured wide-necked aneurysms were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive values of risk factors in poor prognosis. Results:Degrees of aneurysm embolization immediately after surgery: Raymond grading I was noted in 351 patients (84.2%), grading II in 44 patients (10.6%), and grading III in 22 patients (5.2%). Perioperative complications were noted in 44 patients (10.6%), and death was noted in 4 (1%). Intraoperative thrombosis incidence of the loaded clopidogrel group, loaded clopidogrel combined with aspirin group and tirofiban group was 5.7% (5/87), 5.7% (12/212) and 0.8% (1/118); that in tirofiban group was significantly lower than that in the loaded clopidogrel group and loaded clopidogrel combined with aspirin group ( P<0.05). At discharge, 360 patients (86.3%) had good prognosis and 57 patients (13.7%) had poor prognosis. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed age≥60 years ( OR=3.407, 95% CI: 1.620-7.166, P=0.001), preoperative Hunt-Hess grading 3 ( OR=11.445, 95% CI: 3.584-36.547, P<0.001), preoperative Hunt-Hess grading 4 ( OR=88.951, 95% CI: 14.519-544.948, P<0.001), preoperative Hunt-Hess grading 5 ( OR=64.949, 95% CI: 12.809-329.325, P<0.001), and multiple stenting ( OR=4.709, 95% CI: 1.215-18.248, P=0.025) were independent risk factors for poor prognosis of these patients. ROC curves showed that area under the curve of combination of age, number of implanted stents, and preoperative Hunt-Hess grading in predicting poor prognosis of these patients was 0.821, with optimal diagnostic threshold of 0.500, sensitivity of 0.667, and specificity of 0.833. Conclusion:Stent-assisted coil embolization is safe and effective in acute intracranial ruptured wide-necked aneurysms; tirofiban is safe as perioperative antiplatelet drug; patients with old age, preoperative Hunt-Hess grading≥3, and multiple stents are prone to have poor prognosis.

Objective:To explore the effect of healthcare failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA) management mode on perioperative nursing quality of cancer patients at arm infusion port.Methods:Using the convenient sampling, 68 cancer patients with arm infusion port in Hunan Cancer Hospital from January to October 2020 were selected as the control group, and 84 cancer patients with arm infusion port from November 2020 to August 2021 were selected as the intervention group. The control group followed the hospital's original perioperative safety management of chest wall port and peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) insertion, while the intervention group adopted the HFMEA management mode for the perioperative safety management of arm infusion port. The risk priority number (RPN) , the occurrence of high-risk failure modes and complications of the two groups were compared.Results:The RPN values of failure modes such as inadequate preoperative evaluation, loss of intraoperative accessories, low puncture position, too short catheter clipping, loose connection between catheter and injection base, catheter positioning after incision suture, and insufficient postoperative health education in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group, with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . The incidence of inadequate preoperative evaluation, inadequate postoperative health education and postoperative complications in the intervention group were statistically lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The HFMEA management mode can reduce the risk of perioperative links of cancer patients at arm infusion port and decrease the incidence of postoperative complications, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective? To investigate the current situation of intravenous therapy in 38 ClassⅡ and above hospitals in Hu'nan Province and analyze the existing problems. Methods? A questionnaire survey was conducted in 38 hospitals in Hu'nan Province in November 2018 using the Nursing Situation of Intravenous Therapy in Hospitals at All Levels designed by the Professional Committee of Intravenous Therapy and Chinese Nursing Association. To understand the status quo of intravenous therapy, quality management of intravenous therapy, and the status of specialist nurses in intravenous therapy. Results? In 38 hospitals, totally 36 hospitals provided continuous intravenous therapy services through intravenous therapy/peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) clinics and a designated hospital department; 21 hospitals had established intravenous therapy/PICC clinics; the outpatient service was flexible in form, but the qualification certification of outpatient nurses needed further regulation. The proportion of hospitals carrying out medium and long-term catheter infusion and hospitals carrying out PICC transfusion with Modified Sedinger Technique (MST) puncture guided by ultrasound was 100.00% and 72.22%, respectively. In vascular visualization technology, hospitals using infrared, ultrasound and X-ray technology were 2.63%, 63.16% and 34.21% respectively. There were some gaps in the skin disinfectant and disinfection scope, concentration of flushing and sealing fluid and maintenance frequency between the hospitals and the national standards in peripheral and central venipuncture and catheter maintenance. In terms of quality management of intravenous therapy, 34 hospitals had established intravenous therapy teams, whose quality evaluation criteria are different. In terms of specialist nurses team construction, there were 505 specialist nurses in venous therapy/PICC in 38 hospitals. The structure of specialist nurses had been continuously optimized in terms of education, title and length of service. However, hospitals needed to pay more attention to the development of specialist nurses. Conclusions? The contents of continuous nursing of intravenous therapy need to be further expanded, the management of PICC clinic needs to be strengthened, the standardized use of infusion devices and connectors needs to be improved, the knowledge and practice gap between puncture nursing and catheter maintenance of intravenous therapy exists, and the quality control standards of hospitals need to be standardized and regulated, more attention should be paid to the development of specialist nurses.

Objective To evaluate the effects of"PICC fixed standard operation flow chart"in PICC fixed quality management. Methods Patients with PICC were admitted to the control group from January to June in 2014, given the routine PICC fixed method. PICC patients in the observation group who were enrolled from July to December 2014 were given new PICC fixed method that obey the"PICC fixed standard operation flow chart", which was established from relevant norms and guidelines and related literature. The incidence rate of medical adhesive related skin injury and unplanned extubation of PICC were compared with those of the two groups. Results The incidence rate of medical adhesive related skin injury was decreased from 35.20％(70034/198962) to 18.03％(37862/209955) (Z=-3.363, P<0.01) and PICC unplanned extubation decreased from 1.31‰(20/15384) to 0.37‰(7/18919) , the difference was statistically significant (χ2=6.940, P<0.05). Conclusions The PICC fixed standard operating flow chart can be used as a guide to implement the PICC fixation. Based on this, the quantitative management index is applied to the PICC fixed quality management, which can standardize the fixation of the PICC , reduce the related complications caused by the fixation of the catheter, prevent the occurrence of unplanned extubation of PICC , provide effective protection to ensure safe PICC long-term use and improve the patient's comfort.

Objective To study the different oral compound polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder on the effect of bowel preparation before colonoscopy.Methods A total of 602 inpatients or outpatients were selected from department of gastroenterology,and they were randomly divided into tranditional group(n =288)and improvement group(n =314).All patients took a dose of two box of compound polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder 4 hours before colonoscopy.Endoscopic doctor investigated the antibiotic tolerance,adverse reactions,heart rate,blood pressure,blood electrolytes and blood glucose during treatment in form of questionnaire with single blind Bosdon bowel preparation scale (BBPS)score.Results The BBPS scores of the tranditional group and improvement group were (7.03 ± 1.24)points,(7.82 ±1.12)points,the score of the improvement group was significantly higher than the traditional group(t =2.259,P <0.05).The taste scores were (1.89 ±0.07)points,(1.25 ±0.09)points (t =2.624,P <0.05),the fully taking rates were 90.28%,95.86%(χ2 =7.375,P <0.05 ),and the second taking rates were 88.54%,93.95%(χ2 =5.566,P <0.05).In contract,the score of adverse reactions of the improvement group was significantly lower than that of the traditional group [(2.58 ±0.07)points vs(2.22 ±0.09)points,t =2.068,P <0.05].There was no significant difference of colonoscopy time between the two groups[(10.78 ±4.34)min vs (9.89 ± 1.77)min,t =1.766,P >0.05 ],althought the improvement group was shorter than the tranditional group. Conclusion The modified way of oral compound polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder not only can improve the qulity of intestinal cleaning,but also acts as a more effective method in preparation of colonoscopy due to its high tolerance, good comfort,less pain and high acceptance of patients.Therefore,it is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

The protective efficacy of DNA plasmids encoding avian infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) S1, N, or M protein was investigated in chickens. Chickens were inoculated monovalently (with plasmid pVAX1-16S1, pVAX1-16M, or pVAX1-16N alone) or multivalently (combination of the three different plasmids, pVAX1-16S1/M/N). A prime-boost immunization protocol against IBV was developed. Chickens were immunized with the multivalent DNA vaccine twice and then boosted with an inactivated vaccine once. Antibody titers of the chickens immunized with pVAX1-16S1/M/N were much higher than those of the monovalent groups (p < 0.01). A protective rate up to 90% was observed in the pVAX1-16S1/M/N group. The serum antibody titers in the prime-boost birds were significantly higher than those of the multivalent DNA vaccine group (p < 0.01) but not significantly different compared to the inactivated vaccine group at 49 days of age. Additionally, the prime-boost group also showed the highest level of IBV-specific cellular proliferation compared to the monovalent groups (p < 0.01) but no significant difference was found compared to the multivalent DNA vaccine group, and the prime-boost group completely protected from followed viral challenge.
