The real-time monitoring of cerebral hemorrhage can reduce its disability and fatality rates greatly. On the basis of magnetic induction phase shift, we in this study used filter and amplifier hardware module, NI-PXI data-acquisition system and LabVIEW software to set up an experiment system. We used Band-pass sample method and correlation phase demodulation algorithm in the system. In order to test and evaluate the performance of the system, we carried out saline simulation experiments of brain hemorrhage. We also carried out rabbit cerebral hemorrhage experiments. The results of both saline simulation and animal experiments suggested that our monitoring system had a high phase detection precision, and it needed only about 0.030 4s to finish a single phase shift measurement, and the change of phase shift was directly proportional to the volume of saline or blood. The experimental results were consistent with theory. As a result, this system has the ability of real-time monitoring the progression of cerebral hemorrhage precisely, with many distinguished features, such as low cost, high phase detection precision, high sensitivity of response so that it has showed a good application prospect.
ObjectiveVideo electroencephalography (VEEG) monitoring for health education of elderly patients based on a process-based communication model, and explore the impact of this model on the success rate, negative emotions, nursing satisfaction, and active cooperation rate of such patients.MethodsFrom September 2017 to September 2019, 118 patients with suspected epilepsy, encephalitis and other diseases who required VEEG monitoring in Suining Central Hospital were selected for this study (patients aged 61 to 73 years; 54 males and 64 females). Patients were divided into 2 groups using a random number table method, 59 patients in each group.A group received routine nursing, and B group received health education based on the process communication model. The monitoring success rate, negative emotion, active cooperation rate, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe total effective rate in the B group was 86.44%, which was significantly higher than 76.27% in the A group (P<0.05). After nursing intervention, the scores of anxiety and depression in the two groups were significantly decreased, but the decline was greater in the B group (P<0.05). The active cooperation rate and nursing satisfaction of the B group were significantly higher than those of the A group (P<0.05).ConclusionCompared with conventional nursing, health education based on process communication mode can significantly improve the success rate of VEEG monitoring in elderly patients, alleviate the negative emotions of patients, improve the active cooperation rate and nursing satisfaction.
Objective To explore the intraoperative imaging to monitor the prosthetic fixation for the total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to increasethe accuracy of the primary THA prosthetic fixation. Methods From April 2000 to August 2005, 69 patients (75 hips) underwent THA monitored by the imaging (the imaged THA group, Group I), and 72 patients (78 hips) underwent THA with the standard method (the standard THA group, Group S). There were 32 males and 37 females in Group S. The mean ages of the patients in Group I and Group S were 62.3 years and 60.5 years respectively, ranging 46-75 years in Group I and 43-75 years in Group S. Preoperative diagnoses were femoral neck fracture (Garden Ⅲ,Ⅳ) in 23 patients (23 hips) in Group I and 25 patients (25 hips) in Group S, acetabular dysplasia (Campbell Ⅰ, Ⅱ) in 9 patients (10 hips) in Group I and 11 patients (13 hips) in Grouop S, osteoarthritis in 16 patients (17 hips)in Group I and 15 patients (15 hips) in Group S, femoral head osteonecrosis (Ficat Ⅲ,Ⅳ) 15 patients (16 hips) in Group I and 17 patients (17 hips) in Group S, and rheumatoid arthritis in 6 patients (9 hips) in Group I and 4 patients (8 hips) in Group S. There were 21 hips of cement prostheses in Group I and 22 hips in Group S, 12 hips of cementless prostheses in Group I and 11 hips in Group S, 42 hips of cement and cementless prostheses in Group I and 45 hips in Group S. Group I used the standard THA and the intraoperative X-ray monitoring the prosthetic fixation in the numerical measure of abduction angle, anteversion angle, femoralneck length, and femoral offset distance. The items compared betweem Group I and Group S included incisional length, intraoperative bleeding, transfusion, operative time, frequency of X-ray imaging, infection, postoperative functional recovery, and prostheric position of postoperative X-ray imaging. Results The follow-up on 62 patients in Group I and 64 patients in Group S for 6-64 months averaged 42 months revealed that there were statistically significant differences in incisional length, intraoperative bleeding, transfusion, operative time, frequency of X-ray imaging, postoperative functional recovery, prosthetic position of postoperative X-ray imaging, and the Harris score between Group I and Group S one year after operation. The results of Group I were significatly better than those of Group S. Conclusion The intraoperative X-ray imaging can increase the accuracy of the THA prosthetic fixation and reduce the incidence of THA maloperation by The X-ray imaging can also be used in county hospitals if Carm fluoroscopy can be provided.
目的 探讨躯体感觉诱发电位（SEP）在颈脊髓损伤术前、术中监测的意义。 方法 纳入2010年1月－2012年4月治疗的241例颈脊髓损伤患者，术前按美国脊柱脊髓损伤协会（ASIA）评分并分级，确定损伤平面。术前与术中SEP监测，分析不同损伤分级以及不同损伤平面术前的波幅及潜伏期的差异，术中SEP监测以波幅下降＞50%和或潜伏期延长＞10%为预警标准。 结果 各损伤分级组术前SEP监测：A级组SEP波消失，呈一直线，而B、C、D、E级组均测出SEP波形，根据是否可测出SEP波形，可将A级与B、C、D、E及组区别。B、C、D级组之间波幅和潜伏期均无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。E级组较B、C、D级组波幅增高、潜伏期缩短，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）；不完全性颈脊髓损伤组内不同损伤平面组之间波幅和潜伏期差异均无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。术中SEP对脊髓功能损伤监测的灵敏度83.3%、特异度98.7%。其中术中：SEP阳性8例，真阳性5例，4例术者处理后波幅及潜伏期回复至正常范围，术后无新的神经功能损伤，另1例术者采取各种处理后波幅及潜伏期无恢复，术后神经功能损伤较术前加重；假阳性3例，1例麻醉师给予升高血压后波形恢复至正常，另2例经麻醉师调整麻醉深度后波形恢复正常，此3例术后无新的神经功能损伤。SEP阴性233例，真阴性232例，术后无新的神经功能损伤；假阴性1例，患者术中、术后波形未见异常，术后运动功能损伤程度较术前加重。 结论 ① SEP能准确评估完全性和不完性颈脊髓损伤，但对不完全性颈脊髓损伤的损伤程度不能作出准确评估、也不能区分颈脊髓损伤的损伤平面；② 术中SEP监测能较好地反映颈脊髓功能完整性，对减少颈脊髓损伤术中发生医源性颈脊髓损伤风险具有重要意义。
ObjectiveTo establish a predictive model of surgical site infection (SSI) following colorectal surgery using machine learning.MethodsMachine learning algorithm was used to analyze and model with the colorectal data set from Duke Infection Control Outreach Network Surveillance Network. The whole data set was divided into two parts, with 80% as the training data set and 20% as the testing data set. In order to improve the training effect, the whole data set was divided into two parts again, with 90% as the training data set and 10% as the testing data set. The predictive result of the model was compared with the actual infected cases, and the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of the model were calculated, the area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive capacity of the model, odds ratio (OR) was calculated to tested the validity of evaluation with a significance level of 0.05.ResultsThere were 7 285 patients in the whole data set registered from January 15th, 2015 to June 16th, 2016, among whom 234 were SSI cases, with an incidence of SSI of 3.21%. The predictive model was established by random forest algorithm, which was trained by 90% of the whole data set and tested by 10% of that. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of the model were 76.9%, 59.2%, 3.3%, and 99.3%, respectively, and the area under ROC curve was 0.767 [OR=4.84, 95% confidence interval (1.32, 17.74), P=0.02].ConclusionThe predictive model of SSI following colorectal surgery established by random forest algorithm has the potential to realize semi-automatic monitoring of SSIs, but more data training should be needed to improve the predictive capacity of the model before clinical application.
In order to investigate the mechanism of blood supply to the delayed separated skin flap and the time and criteria for its transfer, 5 smallsized Banna pigs were selected to produce 14 skin flaps. In the experimental group the skin flap on one side was made from the middle of the back having an extrathin steel sheet intervened between the flap and the soft tissue of the back whereas the flap on the opposite side without a steel sheet intervened was served as the selfcontrol. The skin flaps were examined 3,7,10 and 20 days after the operation and 3,7 and 10 days after transfer, respectively, by (1) gross observation; (2) ultrasonic Doppler; (3) superficial skin temperature measurement and; (4) histomorphological examination. In the experimentalgroup the survival rate of the flap was 100 percent whereas in the control group all of the flaps had necrosis from 30 to 50 percent after the flap being transfered. In the experimental group, the echo sound from the arterial blood flow from ultrasonic Doppler was heard at the pedicle 7 days after the operation, and as time elapsed, the echo sound spread distally, whereas in the controls no echo sound could be heard over the skin flap. There was significant difference statistically between the experimental and control groups in the temperature of the flaps while the flaps were being transferred (P lt; 0.01). The external diameters of the blood vessels in the central area of the skin flap were larger in the experimental group, 0.8 to l.2mm in comparison to 0.4mm.

ObjectiveTo understand the characteristics of and risk factors for nosocomial infection in a newly built branch of a university teaching hospital, in order to investigate the control measures for prevention and control of nosocomial infection. MethodsA total of 598 cases of nosocomial infection from April 2012 to June 2014 were enrolled in this study. We analyzed statistically such indexes as nosocomial infection rate, infection site, pathogen detection, and use of antibiotics. Meantime, infection point-prevalence survey was introduced by means of medical record checking and bedside visiting. ResultsAmong all the 44 085 discharged patients between April 2012 and June 2014, there were 598 cases of nosocomial infection with an infection rate of 1.36%. Departments with a high nosocomial infection rate included Intensive Care Unit (ICU) (9.79%), Department of Orthopedics (2.98%), Department of Geriatrics (2.62%), and Department of Hematology (1.64%). The top four nosocomial infection sites were lower respiratory tract (45.32%), urinary tract (13.21%), operative incision (8.86%), and blood stream (8.86%). The samples of 570 nosocomial infections were delivered for examination with a sample-delivering rate of 95.32%. The most common pathogens were acinetobacter Baumanii (17.02%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (14.21%), Escherichia coli (13.68%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (11.93%), and Staphylococcus aureus (9.12%). And urinary tract intubation (42.81%), admission of ICU (28.60%), and application of corticosteroid and immunosuppressive agents (26.42%) were the top three independent risk factors for nosocomial infection. ConclusionGeneral and comprehensive monitoring is an effective method for the hospital to detect high-risk departments, factors and patients for nosocomial infection, providing a theoretical basis for prevention and control of nosocomial infection.
