It was found that the inctdence of a congenitalhand malformation was 0. 0808 percent among the total newborns. The congenital malformation ofthe thumb was 37. 74 percent of all deformities of the hand. According to the statistical analysis, we ...
Objective?To study the existent dietary hygiene behavior and attitude among college students and to provide references for further education and management. Methods?A self-designed dietary hygiene-related questionnaire based on the KAP (knowledge-attitude-practice) model was conducted in Sichuan University students, with a method of proportionate sampling classified by sex, grade, and major. Results?College students’ hygienic habits were not good enough. It indicated that only 7.8% of the students were concerned about Hygiene License and 30.7% of them held that tableware should be sterilized before using. Besides, only 21% of the students washed hands before meals, 14.9% believed that a health certificate was required for foodservice employees, more than 80% students may buy food on stalls sometimes. Conclusion?A majority of students have requirements for hygienic situations while dining, but they do not know clear specific health standards. A number of students are not used to washing hands before dining. Moreover, lack of hygienic awareness is emphasized when they are facing food with potential safety problems. It is very necessary to strengthen health education and to improve hygienic behaviors in college students.
Objective To investigate the evaluation of nursing students on nurse teachers’ teaching quality between lessons ofBasic Nursing, in order to provide references for the improvement of teaching methods and promotion of teaching quality. Methods Questionnaire survey was used to investigate nurse students on the evaluation of nurse teachers’ teaching quality in three different clinical practice stages between lessons ofBasic Nursing. SPSS 19.0 statistical package was used to analyze the data. Results In the 5-point scale, the average score of all items was (4.72±0.38) points, and the average scores of three dimensions including timely project completion and gains in the practice, nurse teachers’ teaching, and teaching environment and resources were respectively (4.71±0.44), (4.76±0.35), and (4.66±0.52) points. The three items with the highest scores were teachers’ theoretical knowledge, teachers’ professional quality, and helping nurse students analyze existing problems; while the three with the lowest scores were teaching methods, timely completion of the practice, and participation by other nurses during the teaching. There were significant differences among the three stages in practice gains, reasonability of practice arrangement, instructing the students to solve problems, proficiency and standardization of the operation demonstration, basic theoretical knowledge, flexibility and enlightenment of the teaching methods, attitudes of the nurse teachers, participation by other nurses during the teaching, and head nurse’s support (P<0.05). Conclusions To improve the quality of clinical practice teaching, nurse teachers, other nurses in the ward, head nurse and the whole department should make collective effort. Nurse teachers should pay more attention to the improvement of teaching methods and reasonable planning of clinical practice.

The questionnaire included the general information and basic situation of DVT learning, the knowledge of DVT, intervention attitude and implementation of preventive measures. The survey involved orthopedic doctors, nurses, rehabilitation therapists and nutrition managers. Results A total of 158 questionnaires were distributed and 150 valid questionnaires were completed. The effective questionnaire recovery rate was 94.9%. The mean score of basic knowledge of DVT was 6.45±1.83, the mean score of risk factors was 13.29±3.38, the mean score of intervention attitudes was 9.57±0.78, and the mean score of prevention implementation was 23.33±5.85. Conclusions The knowledge-practice of DVT intervention in orthopedic medical staff is moderate, and the attitude of DVT intervention is better among medical staff. There are various characteristics and weaknesses in knowledge-practice. It is necessary to regularly carry out knowledge about DVT among medical staff to improve the professional level of medical staff to prevent and treat DVT.
Objective To analyze the femoral head collapse and the operation of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in different Japanese Investigation Commitee (JIC) types, in order to summarize the prognostic rules of each type of ONFH, and explore the clinical significance of CT lateral subtypes based on reconstruction of necrotic area of C1 type and verify their clinical effect. Methods A total of 119 patients (155 hips) with ONFH between May 2004 and December 2016 were enrolled in the study. The total hips consisted of 34 hips in type A, 33 in type B, 57 in type C1, and 31 in type C2, respectively. There was no significant difference in age, gender, affected side, or type of ONFH of the patients with differenct JIC types (P>0.05). The 1-, 2-, and 5-year femoral head collapse and operation of different JIC types were analyzed, as well as the survival rate (with femoral head collapse as the end point) of hip joint between different JIC types, hormonal/non-hormonal ONFH, asymptomatic and symptomatic (pain duration >6 months or ≤6 months), and combined preserved angle (CPA) ≥118.725° and CPA<118.725°. JIC types with significant differences in subgroup surgery and collapse and with research value were selected. According to the location of the necrotic area on the surface of the femoral head, the JIC classification was divided into 5 subtypes in the lateral CT reconstruction, and the contour line of the necrotic area was extracted and matched to the standard femoral head model, and the necrosis of the five subtypes was presented by thermography. The 1-, 2-, and 5-year outcomes of femoral head collapse and operation in different lateral subtypes were analyzed, and the survival rates (with collapse of the femoral head as the end point) between CPA≥118.725° and CPA<118.725° hip in patients with this subtype were compared, as well as the survival rates of different lateral subtypes (with collapse and surgery as the end points, respectively). ResultsThe femoral head collapse rate and operation rate in the 1-, 2-, and 5-year were significantly higher in patients with JIC C2 type than in patients with other hip types (P<0.05), while in patients with JIC C1 type than in patients with JIC types A and B (P<0.05). The survival rate of patients with different JIC types was significantly different (P<0.05), and the survival rate of patients with JIC types A, B, C1, and C2 decreased gradually. The survival rate of asymptomatic hip was significantly higher than that of symptomatic hip, and the survival rate of CPA≥118.725° was significantly higher than that of CPA<118.725° (P<0.05). The lateral CT reconstruction of type C1 hip necrosis area was selected for further classification, including type 1 in 12 hips, type 2 in 20 hips, type 3 in 9 hips, type 4 in 9 hips, and type 5 in 7 hips. There were significant differences in the femoral head collapse rate and the operation rate among the subtypes after 5 years of follow-up (P<0.05). The collapse rate and operation rate of types 4 and 5 were 0; the collapse rate and operation rate of type 3 were the highest; the collapse rate of type 2 was high, but the operation rate was lower than that of type 3; the collapse rate of type 1 was high, but the operation rate was 0. In JIC type C1 patients, the survival rate of the hip joint with CPA≥118.725° was significantly higher than that with CPA<118.725° (P<0.05). In the follow-up with femoral head collapse as the end point, the survival rates of types 4 and 5 were all 100%, while the survival rates of types 1, 2, and 3 were all 0, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). The survival rate of types 1, 4, and 5 was 100%, of type 3 was 0, and of type 2 was 60%, showing significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion JIC types A and B can be treated by non-surgical treatment, while type C2 can be treated by surgical treatment with hip preservation. Type C1 was classified into 5 subtypes by CT lateral classification, type 3 has the highest risk of femoral head collapse, types 4 and 5 have low risk of femoral head collapse and operation, type 1 has high femoral head collapse rate but low risk of operation; type 2 has high collapse rate, but the operation rate is close to the average of JIC type C1, which still needs to be further studied.
Objective To investigate the incidence of urolithiasis in infants aged 0-3 years old fed by melaminetainted milk powder in Gansu province. Methods Questionnaires were distributed to 7 856 infants who were screened for urolithiasis in the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University by ultrasound examination from September 25, 2008 to November 15, 2008. Data were collected by Excel and analyzed by SPSS 13.0 software. Results A total of 4 090 (52.06%) male infants and 3 766 (47.94%) female infants underwent ultrasound examination in the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University. The mean age of the infants with urolithias was 18.30±9.68 months. Of those, 704, including 434 males (61.65%) and 270 females (38.35%), were diagnosed with urolithiasis, with an incidence of 8.96%, and 99.14% of calculus was located in kidney. And, 58 aged 0-6 months with an incidence of 3.16%, 218 aged 6-12 months with an incidence of 11.01%, 275 aged 12-24 months with an incidence of 12.55%, and 153 aged 24-36 months with an incidence of 8.27%. The relationship between the incidence of urolithiasis and gender as well as age was assessed by using the Pearson Chi-square test. The results showed significant differences in the incidence of urolithiasis among infants of different genders and different ages (Plt;0.05). The result of multiplelogistic regression analysis indicated that gender was related to the incidence of urolithiasis (Plt;0.05). Conclusion The incidence of urolithiasis in the infants aged 0-3 years old in Gansu province is relatively high. The incidence of urolithiasis focuses on the infants aged 6-24 months and has anatomical specificity.
Objective To investigate the construction and services of the community health service system in Shifang, as well as the satisfaction of community residents with the community health services and the post-disaster emergency response capability of the community hospital, so as to provide decision-making suggestions on better reconstruction of the community health service system and improvement of its post-disaster emergency response capability. Methods There were 4‰ of community residents in Fangting town were selected by convenience sampling for a face-to-face interview using a questionnaire. Logistic regression was used to identify the influencing factors of residents’ satisfaction with community health services. Results A total of 250 questionnaires were conducted for face-to-face interviews, and 246 ones were retrieved (response rate 98.4%). Residents’ understanding and satisfactory degree of the community health service were 41.1% and 36.6%, respectively. Health education, medical expenses and medical insurance were the main factors influencing the residents’ satisfactory degree of community health services (P=0.050, 0.001, and 0.001). The proportions of disaster / disaster prevention education, exercises of post-disaster contingency plans, and psychological intervention as well as rehabilitation for residents were 37.4%, 10.6%, and 12.6%, respectively. Conclusion Community health services have not been widely accepted by community residents, and the satisfactory degree is low. The residents’ understanding and adaptation can be improved by strengthening the community health service propaganda. Strengthening health education, improving the quality of services, controlling costs, and introducing medical insurance reimbursement mechanism can increase the residents’ satisfactory degree. Including disaster emergencies into basic tasks can strengthen the emergency response capability and then provide guarantee for the residents’ health.
ObjectiveTo understand the current status of nosocomial infections in a municipal medical unit, to find problems in daily monitoring, and to provide the evidence for the prevention and control of nosocomial infection in high-risk groups and procedures. MethodsAccording to the 2013 survey requirements made by the nosocomial infection control center of Chengdu, we made a cross-sectional survey about nosocomial infection among all the inpatients on July 25th, 2013 and statistically analyzed the results. ResultsTotally, 1 301 cases were actually investigated within 1 307 inpatients of the time (the actual investigation rate was 99.54%). The prevalence rate of nosocomial infection was 3.38% (44 cases). The top five departments of infection rate were Respiratory Intensive Care Unit (RICU), Center of Intensive Care Unit (CICU), Department of Neurosurgery, Department of Thoracic Surgery and Department of General Surgery. The main site of infection was respiratory tract, which took possession of 62.25%. In univariate analyses, age≥60, length of hospital stay >2 weeks, invasive operation, history of diabetes, operation, radiotherapy/chemotherapy, utilization of antibiotics were found to be risk factors for infections. Multivariate analysis showed that length of hospital stay (OR=3.115, P=0.001), invasive operation (OR=14.930, P<0.001), diabetes mellitus (OR=2.157, P=0.046), radiotherapy/chemotherapy (OR=7.497, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for nosocomial infections. The utilization rate of antibiotics was 45.73%. Among them, there was 85.21% using single antibiotics, and 82.18% of them were used therapeutically. ConclusionUnderstanding the current status of nosocomial infection in municipal hospitals helps us grasp the key and difficulty of infection control, make out prevention-control measures for high-risk groups and high-risk departments, and guide and supervise its implementation in clinical departments, which points out the direction to further reduce the incidence of nosocomial infection.
ObjectiveTo learn the current situation and feature of nosocomial infection (NI), so as to provide reference for making the prevention measures. MethodsPrevalence rate of nosocomial infection in patients hospitalized on December 18, 2012 was investigated by the combination of bed-side examination and medical record checking. ResultsA total of 1 083 patients were surveyed, and the prevalence rate of nosocomial infection was 6.00%. Intensive Care Unit had the highest NI prevalence (28.57%), followed by Hematology Department (20.00%) and Neurosurgery Department (20.00%). Lower respiratory tract (38.46%) was the main infection site, followed by superficial surgical incision (13.85%). The usage rate of antimicrobial agents was 30.56%, and 40 strains of pathogens were isolated, in which Klebsiella pneumonia (15.0%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (12.5%) and Escherichia coli (10.0%) were the main ones. ConclusionTarget monitoring management of key departments and key sites should be strengthened, and the management of antimicrobial agents should be stressed and invasive procedures should be decreased.
