ObjectiveTo explore the application effect of standardized management on video-electroencephalogram (VEEG) monitoring.MethodsIn January 2018, a multidisciplinary standardized management team composed with doctors, technicians, and nurses was established. The standardized management plan for VEEG monitoring from outpatient, pre-hospital appointment, hospitalization and post-discharge follow-up was developed; the special quilt for epilepsy patients was designed and customized, braided for the patient instead of shaving head, standardized the work flow of the staff, standardized the health education of the patients and their families, and standardized the quality control of the implementation process. The standardized managemen effect carried out from January to December 2018 (after standardized managemen) was compared with the management effect from January to December 2017 (before standardized managemen).ResultsAfter standardized management, the average waiting time of patients decreased from (2.08±1.13) hours to (0.53±0.21) hours, and the average hospitalization days decreased from (6.63±2.54) days to (6.14±2.17) days. The pass rate of patient preparation increased from 63.14% to 90.09%. The capture rate of seizure onset increased from 73.37% to 97.08%. The accuracy of the record increased from 33.12% to 94.10%, the doctor’s satisfaction increased from 76.34±29.53 to 97.99±9.27, and the patient’s satisfaction increased from 90.04±18.97 to 99.03±6.51. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionStandardization management is conducive to ensuring the homogeneity of clinical medical care, reducing the average waiting time and the average hospitalization days, improving the capture rate and accuracy of seizures, ensuring the quality of medical care and improving patient’s satisfaction.
ObjectiveTo discuss the effect of the whole-course management model of intermittent catheterization (IC) in patients with neurogenic bladder (NB).MethodsPatients with NB caused by incomplete spinal cord injury admitted to Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of West China Hospital of Sichuan University between May and October 2019 were selected. According to the random number table, the patients were randomly divided into the trial group and the control group. The control group adopted the traditional management mode of IC, and the trial group adopted the whole-course management mode of IC. The urination diary (single catheterization volume, residual urine volume, and times of urine leakage), bacteria count and leukocyte count in urine routine were compared between the two groups.ResultsFinally 80 patients were included, with 40 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in urination diary, bacteria count or leukocyte count in urine routine between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in urination diary in the second week of management (P>0.05). At the 12th week of management, there were statistically significant differences in urination diary between the two groups (P<0.05). The bacteria count and leukocyte count in the second and 12th week of the management in the trial group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe whole-course management of IC for patients with NB caused by incomplete spinal cord injury can effectively improve bladder volume, and reduce residual urine volume and times of urine leakage. It also can reduce the incidence of urinary tract infection, reduce urinary complications, and ultimately improve the quality of life of patients.
