Objective To investigate the knowledge level about pulmonary rehabilitation in respiratory physicians in Shanghai. Methods A self-designed questionnaire about pulmonary rehabilitation was sent to respiratory physicians in 18 tertiary-care referral hospitals of Shanghai from June to September 2011. Results A total of 237 valid questionnaires were collected. Accuracy rate of single-answer questions was(62.1±18.3)% , while correct rate of multiple-answer questions ( more than one answer) was ( 35.5±15.6) % . Neither working years nor doctor rank had correlation with accuracy of questionnaires. Conclusion The knowledge about pulmonary rehabilitation in respiratory physicians of Shanghai was poor. We need to strengthen the relevant training and continuing education.
The implementation of the medical alliance has promoted the effective integration of medical resources in China. However, with the increase in the demand for rehabilitation medical care, the construction of rehabilitation medical alliance will provide a new strategy for the development of rehabilitation medicine. The rehabilitation medical alliance will promote the subsidence of high-quality rehabilitation resources, enhance the service capacity of grass-roots rehabilitation, and achieve the hierarchical rehabilitation diagnosis and treatment. The rehabilitation medical alliance combines four alliance models to construct a three-tier system, forming a three-level alliance of administration and classification. Regarding rehabilitation clinical pathway, rehabilitation evaluation system, rehabilitation treatment system and the homogenization guarantee of rehabilitation nursing as its main content, intelligent rehabilitation medicine alliance could be established by means of technical means such as artificial intelligence and big data cloud platform.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis refers to a three-dimensional spinal deformity or structural change that occurs in adolescence. The rotation of the vertebral body is greater than or equal to 10°. In order to avoid affecting the physical and mental health of patients, appropriate intervention and treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis should be carried out as soon as possible. Based on the summary of non-surgical treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis at home and abroad, this paper systematically introduces the mainstream early non-surgical treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, including observation and follow-up, electrical stimulation therapy, Chinese traditional chiropractic techniques, massage and manual reduction, functional training and exercise therapy, traction therapy and brace therapy, in order to provide a reference for the possible treatment research direction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in the future.
ObjectiveTo build core items of database for traumatic brain injury (TBI) in rehabilitation medical database.MethodsRelevant factors in TBI database were summarized through database search in combination of acknowledged relevant items of TBI in rehabilitation medical database. Delphi method was used for experts to determine which items should be included by two rounds of questionnaires.ResultsThe average authority coefficient of experts was 0.94. After two rounds of questionnaires, 73 were included. Its contents include: general conditions, brain damage and disposal, relevant rehabilitation assessment scales, previous rehabilitation treatment, treatment expenses, and contents that require attention during re-evaluation.ConclusionsAfter two rounds of Delphi evaluation, the core items of database for TBI are identified with high recognition and consistency from experts.
Objective To investigate the application progress of postoperative fluid administration in colorectal surgery. MethodsLiteratures about the advancement of fluid administration in colorectal surgery were reviewed and analyzed. Results Compared to standard fluid management, restrictive fluid administration could reduce the incidence of complications, the length of stay in hospital and improve postoperative survival rate. Colloid-crystalloid combined therapy was better than that pure crystal therapy. Conclusion Volume and type of rehydration influence postoperative recovery, which is also considered in “fast track” colorectal surgery.
ObjectiveTo carry out an investigation on the life quality of amputees in the “5·12” Wenchuan earthquake before and after rehabilitation of one year (short term), three year (intermediate term) and five year (long term) and find out the best program of recovery. MethodsIn September 2008, 52 patients who were treated in the higher-level hospital and came back to the Second People’s Hospital of Mianzhu City for rehabilitation were divided into two groups: group A and B with 26 patients in each. Phased rehabilitation program was adopted for group A while traditional program was chosen for patients in group B. “The Personal Information Table of Amputees of Deyang City” and The Life Quality Measurement Table of World Health Organization were chosen as the research tools before the program and one year, three years and five years after the program. ResultScores of the life quality of both groups showed a general rising tendency, while group A was higher than group B in each single phase, especially in the longterm one. For positive feeling, group A got a score of 193.0±12.3 and group B got 126.0±11.2; for ability to work, group A had a score of 62.0±5.2 and group B had 41.0±2.3; for life satisfaction, group A achieved 150.0±2.1 and group B achieved 101.0±6.2; for ability of action, the score of group A was 17.0±2.6 and group B was 11.0±5.2. The differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05) . ConclusionCompared with conventional rehabilitation program, phased rehabilitation program can better enhance and consolidate the amputees’ quality of life and promote their returning to family and society, which can make up for the deficiency of the existing rehabilitation programs and is worth popularization and application.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of ileal mucosal seromuscular patch for bladder expansion combined with rehabilitation training for treating neurogenic bladder dysfunction (NBD) with hyperreflexia. MethodsA retrospective study was performed on the clinical data of 61 patients with NBD and hyperreflexia who were treated and followed up between July 2008 and June 2013. There were 36 males and 25 females, aged 6-23 years (mean, 10 years). The reasons included meningomyelocele operation (43 patients), surgery for lipoma in lumbar vertebra (4 patients), operation of thoracolubar teratoma (2 patients), and lumbosacral spina bifida (12 patients). The results of urodynamics indicated that bladder volume decreased obviously and the residual urine increased. The voiding cystourethrography (VCUG) showed the vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), including 6 cases (10 sides) of grade V, 7 cases (12 sides) of grade IV, and 6 cases (8 sides) of grade III. The color doppler ultrosound showed mild hydronephrosis in 23 cases (41 sides), moderate hydronephrosis in 25 cases (42 sides), and severe hydronephrosis in 13 cases (22 sides). The blood biochemical examination suggested chronic renal failure (CRF) in 13 cases. The treatment included augmentation for bladder and rehabilitation training after operation. ResultsThe operation time was (157±26) minutes; the intraoperative blood loss was (43±15) mL, and no patient was given blood transfusion. The patients were followed up 1.5-6.0 years (mean, 4.5 years). Vesical fistula occurred in 4 cases, urinary infection in 5 cases, dysuresia in 2 cases, and cystolith in 1 case after operation. At 1 year after operation, the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontience Short Form (CIQ-SF) score was significantly better than preoperative score (H=89.813, P=0.000). The urodynamic data showed that the difference value between observed and theoretical bladder volumes, bladder compliance, residual urine volume, maximum flow rate, and maximum storage detrusor pressure were significantly better than preoperative ones (P<0.05). And the color doppler ultrasound showed mild hydronephrosis in 34 cases (56 sides), moderate hydronephrosis in 18 cases (33 sides), and severe hydronephrosis in 9 cases (16 sides). VCUG showed that bladder volume obviously increased, no contracture was observed; and VUR was improved. And renal function was improved in 13 patients with CRF. ConclusionIleal mucosal seromuscular patch for bladder expansion combined with postoperative rehabilitation training has good effectiveness in treating NBD with hyperreflexia.
Spinal cord injuries (SCI) seriously impair the quality of life, functional status, and social independence of the patients. Since the last century, a series of basic research on spinal cord injury has made us a deep understanding of its mechanisms and pathophysiology. But so far, how to repair damaged nerve functions after SCI is still a neurological problem. There are still controversies surrounding some treatment strategies for SCI, including the use of magnetic resonance imaging, type and timing of anticoagulant prevention, the timing of surgical intervention, the use of corticosteroids such as methylprednisolone sodium, as well as the type and timing of rehabilitation. For patients with SCI, early surgical intervention and neuroprotective therapy may be the best treatment. At the same time, rehabilitation and psychological intervention are equally important.
Objective To systematically analyze the research landscape of China’s rehabilitation industry, identify core contradictions and evolutionary pathways, and provide evidence for policy optimization and academic innovation. Methods Literature published up to December 31, 2024 was retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and Chongqing VIP databases using rehabilitation industry as the subject term. Bibliometric methods such as keyword clustering, strategic coordinate analysis, temporal evolution (CiteSpace and R language) were employed to dissect research patterns, hotspot evolution, and innovation bottlenecks of the rehabilitation industry. Results Finally, 183 articles were included for analysis. China’s rehabilitation research exhibits a policy-driven, fragmented pattern (policy-focused journals accounted for 25.68% of publications; the Ministry of Civil Affairs had the highest publication volume, accounting for 2.19%. There was a structural disconnect between demand and research: on the one hand, the outbreak of elderly rehabilitation demand was marginalized in research (located in the lower left quadrant of the strategic coordinates, but keyword clustering dissolved in the “# 0 rehabilitation industry”); on the other hand, although exercise rehabilitation was a hot topic (ranked first in frequency, centrality>0.1), its maturity was insufficient (located in the lower right quadrant of the strategic coordinates). The research hotspots continued to shift towards “integration of industry and education” and “high-quality development” (temporal evolution), with the emergence of the term “rehabilitation” (strength=4.09) marking a historical focus, while technology transformation and collaboration in the public welfare market (isolation of the language rehabilitation industry) had become key breakthrough directions. Conclusion The rehabilitation industry in China urgently needs to break the dilemma of “high yield and low cooperation”, promote research and practice collaboration through three-dimensional innovation of technology education system, and support the rehabilitation needs of an aging society.
ObjectivesTo evaluate the methodological quality of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) of Chinese rehabilitation medicine.MethodsCBM, VIP, CNKI, WanFang Data and Medlive databases were electronically searched to collect CPGs of Chinese rehabilitation medicine from January 1979 to May 2018. Four reviewers evaluated the methodological quality of the CPGs by AGREE Ⅱ.ResultsA total of 11 CPGs were included, which involved 5 CPGs on nervous system rehabilitation, 1 CPG on bone and joint system rehabilitation, 1 CPG each on pediatric rehabilitation, internal medicine system rehabilitation, burn rehabilitation, earthquake rehabilitation and rehabilitation diagnosis and treatment criteria respectively. The results of AGREE Ⅱ score showed that the average scores on six domains were 65.3%, 28.0%, 9.3%, 42.1%, 6.3% and 4.0%. There were not any level A (recommended) guidelines. Two guidelines were level B (recommended after being revised). The other nine guidelines were level C (not recommended).ConclusionsThere are a few rehabilitation CPGs in China and the quality of methodology is low. AGREE's methods and concepts have not been fully used for formulation. The rigor of development, clarity of presentation, applicability and editorial independence of guidelines should be emphasized, so as to produce high level CPGs and improve clinical practice quality in rehabilitation medicine.
