ObjectiveTo explore the nursing method for patients with urerine incision pregnancy. MethodsBetween July 2012 and April 2013, 82 patients with uterine incision pregnancy were selected, including 6 with massive haemorrhage after dilatation and evacuation in other hospitals before received in our department. All of the patients underwent arterial chemotherapy infusion and embolization; dilatation and evacuation was performed under the monitoring of B-scan ultrasound; and the patients received intensive care. ResultsAll of the 82 patients with uterine incision pregnancy were cured via proper treatment and care. ConclusionUterine artery embolization is an effective treatment method for pregnancy incision, which has advantages like minimally invasion, quick effect, and uterus preservation. Strengthen psychological care and close observation of the disease, as well as health guidance are important for the success of incision pregnancy treatment.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of posture nursing by specially-assigned person and psychological nursing on patients after vitrectomy combined with intraocular silicone oil tamponade. MethodsFrom February 2012 to February 2013, traditional nursing method or posture nursing by specially-assigned person and psychological nursing was carried out respectively for 140 patients who had undergone vitrectomy and intraocular silicone oil tamponade. Adverse effects and retina reattachment effect were compared between the two nursing methods. ResultsAdverse effects after the surgery were significantly fewer in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). The number of patients with retina reattachment in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionPosture nursing by specially-assigned person and psychological nursing reduce postoperative adverse consequences significantly, and achieve the expected operative effect.
Medical device-related pressure injury (MDRPI) is a kind of pressure injury that occurs in the course of diagnosis and treatment, and its appearance is similar to that of medical device. Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) infants are more likely to develop MDRPI than children and adults because of the physiological characteristics of skin and the influence of disease. At present, the occurrence of MDRPI in NICU infants is attracting worldwide attention. Its treatment and nursing consume a large amount of medical resources, which not only affect the outcome of the disease, but also increase the economic burden of the family and society. This article summarizes the MDRPI from three aspects: summary, influencing factors, and evaluation tools. It is expected that NICU nurses will carry out large sample clinical investigation of MDRPI in the future, so as to provide a reference for risk prediction model and risk assessment tools to identify high-risk infants and take effective measures in advance to reduce the incidence of MDRPI.
Childhood is the key period of psychological and behavioral development of children.

Epilepsy is a chronic and recurrent disease, which affect the development emotional behavior problem of children with epilepsy seriously. This paper reviewed the influencing factors, measuring methods and intervention of emotional behavior problems in children with epilepsy so as to alleviate the negative emotion and behavior problems and provide quality of life in children with epilepsy.
ObjectiveTo summarize and improve the nursing skills of medication for hemodialysis patients. MethodsWe observed and took nursing measures for adverse medication events in 280 hemodialysis patients treated in our dialysis center from July 2013 to December 2013, and actively prevented all kinds of complications caused by medications. ResultsIn this group of patients, 26 had adverse drug events. Five patients with bleeding after central venous catheter indwelling were cured by changing the dressings. One patient had heparin induced thrombocytopenia, and the complication disappeared after the use of non-heparin hemodialysis. One patient had urokinase allergic reaction, and the complication disappeared by cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. One patient had EPO associated pure red cell aplastic anemia, and the patient did not suffer from it any more by changing the EPO. Two patients with high blood pressure recovered to normal by reducing the use of blood for rHuePO. One had allergic reaction for Iron Dextran Injection and was successfully treated by ICU. Six patients with severe reactive hypoglycemia were corrected quickly by intravenous injection of 50% glucose injection. One patient with adverse reaction to levocarnitine was cured by lowering the frequency of medication to one time per week. Two patients had flu-like symptoms after the use of biological agents were cured by stoppage of the medicine. ConclusionAdverse drug effect should be carefully observed, and patients' education and nursing skills of medical workers should be improved to ensure the medication safety of hemodialysis patients.
ObjectiveTo explore the nursing method to avoid rupture of intracranial aneurysm during induction of anesthesia. MethodWe retrospectively analyzed the nursing method for 428 patients with aneurysm during the induction of anesthesia between October 2012 and October 2013. According to the causes of rupture of intracranial aneurysm (anxiety, tension, excitement, sudden elevation of blood pressure, physical labor), we adopted nursing methods to avoid those causes, and implemented targeted nursing methods during induction of anesthesia. ResultsNo intracranial aneurysm rupture occurred in these 428 aneurysm patients during induction of anesthesia. Two patients' absolute value of systolic blood pressure was below 80 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) during induction of anesthesia, and the vital signs of other patients kept normal. The number of intraoperative rupture cases was 3. When discharged from hospital, there were 385 patients with good prognosis, 39 patients with bad prognosis, and 4 death cases. ConclusionsTargeted nursing method based on patients' particular situation during induction of anesthesia can effectively control patients' emotion, stabilize fluctuations in hemodynamic indexes, decrease the incidence of aneurysm rupture, improve surgery treatment effect of intracranial aneurysm clipping, decrease complications, and improve patients' prognosis.
Objective To evaluate anal function in patients with rectal carcinoma after low anastomosis operation. Methods Five hundred and forty-one patients with low rectal carcinoma were followed up for 1-3 years to assess anal function after low or ultra-low Dixon anastomosis. The evaluation was based on Xu Zhong-fa Assessment Criteria of Anal Function, anastomotic position and time-to-operation. Defecation function training and rehabilitation instructions were administered after the operation. Results The evaluation of defecation function showed that in the low Dixon operation group, 75.8%(211/278) scored “excellent”, 11.8%(33/278) scored “good”, 10.1%(28/278) scored “fair” and 2.2%(6/278) scored “poor”. In the ultra-low Dixon operation group, 70.7%(186/263) scored “excellent”, 13.3%(35/263) scored “good”, 10.6% (28/263) scored “fair”, and 5.3%(14/263) scored “poor”. No statistical difference was found between the low and ultra-low Dixon groups in this evaluation (Z= –1.429,P=0.136). However, there was statistical difference in the “awareness of defecation”(Z= –4.610,P=0.000) and “sense of defecation” (Z= –5.252, P=0.000) domains between the two groups. The defecation functions were similar between the low and the ultra-low Dixon operation groups after 6-month post-operation training(Z= –0.550, P=0.582). Conclusions There is no difference in defecation function between low and ultra-low Dixon anastomotic operation patients with rectal carcinoma by nursing.

In 56 cases of EB virus DNA were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR, 25 (44.64%) positive, and 21/44 cases (47.72%) were positive by general nucleic acid detection of enteroviruses. The neutrophil reduction rate in peripheral blood was 42.19% in 673 tests, lymphocyteincreased in 292 (43.38%), platelet count increased in 307 (45.61%), abnormal in platelet hematocrit in 311 (46.21%); the mean volume of RBC was decreased in319 (47.39%) tests. The content of \begin{document}${\rm{HCO}_3^-} $\end{document} was reduced in 20/55 cases (36.36%). 25-hydroxy vitamin D was 33 (44.5%) decreased in 74 cases. The blood glucose was measured in 146 cases, 60 (41.09%) increased, total cholesterol was 31 (40.78%) increased in 76 cases, serum C peptide was 12 (29.26%) increased in 41 cases.Conclusion Adenoid hypertrophy in children with epilepsy may be related to infection, inflammation or immune disorder, which may cause nutritional, metabolic or internal environment disorders. Therefore, there is need of nursing and health education, transferring to specialized centers for diagnosis and treatment.
Objective To discuss the nursing measures for thyroid nodule patients who undergo core-needle biopsy (CNB) guided by ultrasound. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the experiences and main points of nursing for 1 900 thyroid nodule patients who underwent CNB guided by ultrasound between June 2010 and May 2014. Results All the 1 900 patients underwent CNB successfully. The nursing time was between 5 and 15 minutes, averaging (8.0±3.7) minutes. Complications included hematoma in 25 patients (1.3%) and needle syncope reaction in 30 patients (1.6%), which were cured through symptomatic treatment. No complications such as nerve injury, anesthesia accident or death occurred. No medical disputes happened due to specimen errors or loss. The success rate of specimen collection was 98.4% (1 870/1 900), and the diagnostic accuracy was 95.3% (1 812/1 900). Conclusions Ultrasonography-guided CNB is a safe and reliable operation with a high success rate, high diagnosis accuracy and few complications. Being familiar with the process of nursing cooperation and correct disposal and transfer of biopsy specimens are crucial for successful CNB in patients with thyroid nodules.
ObjectiveTo research on the effect of nursing intervention on CT scanning success rate and image quality in head CT perfusion imaging for cerebral ischemia patients. MethodBetween June 2013 and July 2014, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 203 patients who underwent CT perfusion imaging for cerebral ischemia. All the patients received nursing intervention including the following aspects:body position, psychology, sedation, leakage of contrast medium, allergic reaction, etc. ResultsA total of 199 patients successfully underwent the examination, among whom there were 190 (93.6%) satisfactory and 9 (4.5%) qualified results. The other four patients (1.9%) stopped examination because of motion artifacts. So the success rate came to 98.1%, and the failure rate was 1.9%. ConclusionsWith nursing intervention before, during and after CT scanning, patients with acute cerebral ischemia can accept higher success rate in examining and satisfactory image quality. At the same time, the nursing service was also improved.
