Objective To investigate the efficacy of improved clinical nursing path for day surgery of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods The clinical data of 3 274 patients who underwent day surgery of LC following the clinical pathway between January 2011 and December 2015 were collected. The rate of adverse events including pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), retention of urine and staxis before and after the improvement of clinical nursing path was analyzed and compared. Results For adverse event rate before and after the improvement of clinical nursing path, the difference in the incidence of pain and PONV was statistically significant (P < 0.05), while the difference in retention of urine and staxis was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). Conclusions Through the improvement of clinical nursing path for LC during day time, the procedure of nursing becomes more standardized. It is more feasible for clinical work and postoperative adverse reactio n rate becomes lower. It can also help shorten postoperative rehabilitation time and ensure perioperative medical quality and safety.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the effect of high-flow nasal cannula in immunocompromised patients with acute respiratory failure.MethodsRandomized controlled trials (RCT) or cohort studies on the efficacy of high-flow oxygen therapy in immunocompromised patients with acute respiratory failure were reviewed by computer in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and China Knowledge Network, Wanfang and VIP databases. The group used HFNC and the control group used a mask or a nasal catheter to give oxygen-based conventional oxygen therapy (COT) or noninvasive ventilation (NIV). Two investigators conducted quality assessments and data extractions based on the Cochrane Collaboration Risk Assessment Manual and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Meta analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software. The main outcome measures included tracheal intubation rate, and intensive care unit (ICU) mortality. The secondary outcomes included ICU hospitalization time.ResultsThe study included 13 articles (4 RCTs, 9 cohort studies), a total of 1133 subjects, with 583 in the HFNC group and 550 in the control group (280 in the COT and 270 in the NIV). Meta-analysis showed that HFNC was significantly different from COT in reducing tracheal intubation rate in immunocompromised patients with respiratory failure (OR=0.49, 95%CI 0.33 - 0.72, P=0.0003), but no statistical significance compared with NIV (OR=0.73, 95%CI 0.52 - 1.02, P=0.07); two-combination analysis showed that HFNC had a significant advantage in reducing tracheal intubation rate compared with COT/NIV (combined OR=0.61, 95%CI 0.47 - 0.79, P=0.0002). In terms of ICU mortality, there was a statistically significant difference between HFNC and COT (OR=0.59, 95%CI 0.35 - 1.01, P=0.05) or NIV (OR=0.63, 95%CI 0.44 - 0.91, P=0.01). The results of the two subcombinations and analysis did not change (combined OR=0.62, 95%CI 0.46 - 0.83, P=0.002). In terms of ICU hospital stay, there was no statistically significant difference between HFNC and COT (MD=−4.52, 95%CI −9.43 - 0.39, P=0.07), but the difference was statistically significant compared with NIV (MD=−1.46, 95%CI −2.41 - −0.51, P =0.003); the two sub-combinations and analysis results showed significant difference (combined MD=−3.41, 95%CI −6.16 - −0.66, P=0.01). According to different research types, after subgroup analysis, the analysis results were not different from the combined results. Sensitivity analysis revealed that HFNC could significantly reduce the patient's ICU hospital stay compared with the control group oxygen therapy. The results of the funnel chart analysis show that there were publication offsets in the studies on tracheal intubation rate and ICU mortality included in the literature; studies on ICU hospital stays had a smaller publication offset.ConclusionsCompared with COT, HFNC can reduce the tracheal intubation rate of patients, but there is no significant difference compared with NIV; HFNC can reduce the ICU mortality of patients compared with COT/NIV. However, due to the high heterogeneity between the studies, whether HFNC can reduce ICU hospital stay remains to be further explored.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of clinical nursing pathway on rehabilitation indicators in patients who had undergone transurethral resection of prostate (TURP). MethodsA total of 241 patients underwent TURP between July 2010 and March 2014 were randomly divided into path group (121 cases) and control group (120 cases). The nursing results of the two groups were observed. ResultsThe complication rate of bladder spasm, secondary hemorrhage, urethral stricture in path group were lower than those in the control group with significant differences (P<0.05). ConclusionThe performance of clinical nursing pathway on TURP patients may reduce the complications rate, and promote the health economics indicators and quality of care.
Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics of pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) secondary to interstitial lung disease (ILD) to improve the prophylaxis and management level of clinicians. Methods The clinical data of 50 patients with PCP secondary to ILD in the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2015 to December 2022 were collected. SPSS 26.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results A total of 50 patients with PCP secondary to ILD were screened. Among the 50 patients, there were 23 males and 27 females, with a median age of 64 years old. Forty-eight cases (96%) had a history of glucocorticoid therapy with the median duration of 3 months; 31 (77.5%, 31/40) cases developed PCP in the first 6 months after glucocorticoid therapy; 34 cases had a history of glucocorticoid and immunosuppressants at the same time. None of the 50 ILD patients used drugs for PCP prophylaxis before developing PCP. The major clinical manifestations of PCP secondary to ILD were worse cough and shortness of breath or fever. Laboratory results showed 38 cases (76.0%) had peripheral blood total lymphocyte count <200/µL, 27 cases (54.0%) had CD4+ T cell count <200/µL, 34 cases (68.0%) had CD4+ T cell count <300/µL, 37 cases (74.0%) had CD3+ T cell count <750/µL, 34 cases (68.0%) had β-D-glucan test >200 pg/mL, 35 cases (70.0%) had lactic dehydrogenase > 350 U/L and 41 cases (82.0%) had type Ⅰ respiratory failure. High resolution computed tomography showed added ground-glass opacity and consolidation on the basis of the original ILD. Thirty-six cases were detected the Pneumocystis jirovecii by metagenomic next-generation sequencing with broncho-alveolar lavage fluid as the main source, and 2 cases by smear microscopy. All patients were treated with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. After treatment, 29 cases were discharged with a better health condition, 10 cased died, and 11 cases left hospital voluntarily because of treatment failure or disease deterioration. Conclusions After the use of glucocorticoid and immunosuppressants, ILD patients are susceptible to life-threatening PCP. It is particularly important to make an early diagnosis. Attention should be paid to integrate the symptoms, levels of peripheral blood lymphocyte count, β-D-glucan test, lactic dehydrogenase and imaging findings to make an overall consideration. It is suggested to perform next-generation sequencing with broncho-alveolar lavage fluid at an early stage when patients can tolerate fiberoptic bronchoscopy to avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. ILD patients often develop PCP in the first 6 months after using glucocorticoid and immunosuppressants. During follow-up, peripheral blood CD4+ and CD3+ T cell count should regularly be monitored so as to timely prevent PCP.

Methods We retrospectively analyzed the MSCT manifestations of 32 cases of GIST confirmed by operation and pathology between March 2000 and October 2010. Comparative study was then carried out between MSCT manifestations and patho-physiological risks. Results Of the 32 GIST lesions, 15 presented with high biological risks, six moderate risks, seven low risks and four very low risks. The MSCT results manifested the following main features. Exophytic growth was predominating; Most lesions were with well-defined margins, and were rotund or lobular in shape with homogeneous or heterogeneous density. Three lesions manifested calcification. The enhancement degree of GIST in portal vein phase was more obvious than in arterial phase. There was no metastasis to local lymph nodes. Hepatic metastasis occurred in four cases, one of which was accompanied with anterior abdominal wall metastasis. Of the 15 lesions with maximal diameter longer than 5 cm, MSCT showed obvious cystic changes, necrosis or hemorrhage within the mass most of which was in heterogeneous density, and heterogeneous enhancement; Eleven out of the 15 lesions were at high risk. Among the 17 lesions with maximal diameter shorter than 5 cm, MSCT showed homogeneous enhancement, and 13 of them were at moderate risk or below. Conclusion The MSCT imaging of GIST manifests some certain characteristics. It is valuable in locating the lesion precisely, estimating the risk level of the tumor, and postoperative follow-up for patients with GIST.
