ObjectiveThe aim of this current meta-analysis is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of selective surgery after colonic stenting versus emergency surgery for acute obstructive colorectal cancer.MethodsThe studies published from January 1, 2000 to July 31, 2018 were searched from Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang database, and VIP database. RevMan 5.3 software was used for data analysis.ResultsA total of 21 studies were included in this meta-analysis. Compared to emergency surgery, selective surgery after colonic stenting had significant lower mortality rate [OR=0.44, 95% CI was (0.26, 0.73), P<0.05], permanent stoma rate [OR=0.46, 95% CI was (0.23, 0.94), P<0.05], complication rate [OR=0.47, 95% CI was (0.35, 0.63), P<0.05], and wound infection rate [OR=0.40, 95% CI was (0.25, 0.65), P<0.05）], but had significant higher primary anastomosis rate [OR=3.30, 95% CI was (2.47, 4.41), P<0.05] and laparoscopic surgery rate [OR=12.55, 95% CI was (3.64, 43.25), P<0.05]. But there was no significant differences between the two groups as to anastomotic leak rate [OR=0.86, 95% CI was (0.48, 1.55), P>0.05].ConclusionsSelective surgery after colonic stenting can be identified in a reduced incidence of mortality rate, complication rate, permanent stoma rate, and wound infection rate, and also can increase primary anastomosis rate and laparoscopic surgery rate. Thus, for acute obstructive colorectal cancer, selective surgery after colonic stenting is better than emergency surgery.
ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between rapid emergency medicine score (REMS) and therapeutic intervention scoring system (TISS-28) score and analyze the feasibility of assessing the nursing workload by REMS score for critically wounded earthquake victims, in order to provide reference for rapid and effective resource allocation for earthquake victims. MethodsA retrospective analysis was carried out on 39 Lushan earthquake victims with their acute plysiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ scores higher than 25, who were directly transferred from the earthquake site to the Emergency Department of West China Hospital between April 20 and 27, 2013. Among them, there were 24 males and 15 females aged between 5 and 90 years old averaging (57.1±19.8) years. REMS score and TISS-28 score were calculated for each victim. The relationship between REMS score and TISS-28 score was analyzed by correlation analysis and curve estimation including linear model, quadratic model, composite model, growth model, logarithm model, cubic model and exponential model. Then, we tried to find out the most suitable description for the relationship between REMS score and TISS-28 score. ResultsThe Spearman correlation coefficient between the two score systems was 0.710 and the most suitable description for the relationship between REMS score and TISS-28 score was logarithmic curve model. The formula was TISS=-5.946+4.467lnREMS. ConclusionREMS score can be applied as a nursing workload predicting tool for critically wounded victims in Lushan earthquake and it provides a guidance for rational allocation of health resources.

During the enclosed management period, the hospital worked smoothly and orderly, and no infection or transmission ocurred. Practice shows that the use of enclosed emergency management model is an effective way to respond to emergency COVID-19 epidemic, which can provide scientific reference for the hospital facing public health emergencies.
Improving the quality of infection management in outpatient and emergency departments is crucial for ensuring medical safety and advancing infection control practices. To enhance the level of infection management in outpatient and emergency departments, Tengzhou Central People’s Hospital developed a two round risk assessment system for outpatient and emergency departments hospital infection management using risk matrix and failure mode and effects analysis methods, including hospital-outpatient and emergency departments, very high risk outpatient and emergency departments-high risk point. Based on the enterprise risk management integration framework, the risk management system has been optimized to provide decision support for the prevention and control of outpatient and emergency departments hospital infection. This article will introduce the practical exploration experience of optimizing management in outpatient and emergency departments hospital infection based on risk assessment.
Objective To explore the effect of “net bottom” management in the control of device-associated infections (DAIs) in elderly patients by setting infection monitoring doctors and nurses in the emergency intensive care unit (EICU). Methods Elderly patients who aged≥60 years old admitted to the EICU of the First People’s Hospital of Lianyungang between April 2018 and March 2021 were selected as the research subjects. A “net bottom” management mode was established and implemented for the purpose of infection prevention and control, taking medical and other departments as the coordination and management subjects, and infection monitoring doctors and nurses as the core. The effectiveness of the management intervention was evaluated by comparing the incidences of DAIs in elderly patients, the compliance rates of medical staff in hand hygiene, and the consumption of hand sanitizer per bed day in EICU among the primary stage (from April 2018 to March 2019), intermediate stage (from April 2019 to March 2020), and later stage (from April 2020 to March 2021). Results During the primary stage, intermediate stage, and later stage, there were 540, 497, and 507 elderly inpatients in EICU monitored, respectively, and the incidences of nosocomial infections were 7.22% (39/540), 5.84% (29/497), and 4.14% (21/507), respectively, showing a decreasing trend (χ2trend=4.557, P=0.033). The incidences of ventilator-associated pneumonia, central line-associated bloodstream infections, and catheter-associated urinary tract infections decreased from 4.82‰, 2.53‰, and 0.95‰, respectively in the primary stage, to 0.51‰, 1.01‰, and 0.53‰, respectively in the later stage, among which the difference in the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia was statistically significant (P<0.05). The hand hygiene compliance rate of EICU medical staff increased from 70.39% to 86.67% (P<0.05), and the consumption of hand sanitizer per bed day increased from 33.70 mL to 67.27 mL. The quarterly hand hygiene compliance rate was positively correlated with the quarterly consumption of hand sanitizer per bed day (rs=0.846, P=0.001), and negatively correlated with the quarterly incidence of nosocomial infections (rs=–0.769, P=0.003). Conclusion The “net bottom” management by setting up infection monitoring doctors and nurses in the EICU and multi-department collaboration can reduce the incidence of DAIs in elderly patients in EICU, which plays a positive role in promoting the hospital infection management and improving the quality of hospital infection management.
