  • The Effects and Safety of Statins in Patient with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Meta-Analysis

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects and safety of statins in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). MethodsLiteratures in English and Chinese concerning randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on statins in ARDS patients were retrieved by electronic and manual search. All related data were extracted. Meta-analysis was conducted using the statistical software RevMan 5.3 on the basis of strict quality evaluation. ResultsFive RCTs involving 1489 ARDS patients were included, with 709 patients in the statins group and 780 patients in the placebo control group. Compared with the control group, statins did not improve the survival of ARDS patients[risk ratio (RR) 1.01, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.86 to 1.18, P=0.91), while the improvement of oxygenation[mean difference (MD) 3.92, 95%CI-14.10 to 21.94, P=0.67], ventilator-free days (MD 0.65, 95%CI-0.20 to 1.50, P=0.13) and non-pulmonary organ failure-free days (MD 1.20, 95%CI-1.46 to 3.87, P=0.38) exhibited no differences between the statins group and the control group. However statins were associated with significant elevation of creatine kinase (MD 6.92, 95%CI 5.77 to 8.07, P < 0.000 01). ConclusionThis study demonstrates that statins can not improve outcomes of ARDS patients, and the safety of statins still needs further evaluation.

  • Analysis of health management service of hypertension in Sichuan province from 2015 to 2016

    ObjectiveTo analysis the situation of health management service project for patients with hypertension in basic public health service project of Sichuan province from 2015 to 2016, and to provide enhancing suggestions for community prevention of hypertension.MethodsA total of 42 health clinics or community health service centers, 21 counties and 21 cities were extracted each year by method of multistage stratified random sampling from 2015 to 2016. In each institution, we sampled 10 residents, health records of hypertension. Telephone survey was used to judge the accuracy and standard ability of services the patients received according to the national basic public health service specifications, such as personal information, physical examing records, follow up information.The blood pressure of the last follow-up was recorded.ResultsRate of the managed hypertension was from 42.09% to 40.31% (χ2=115.33, P<0.05), rate of the records with accurate information was from 84.29% to 88.79% (χ2=1.94, P=0.16), and rate of the patients received normative services was from 69.49% to 72.33% (χ2=0.54, P=0.57). The control rate of blood pressure was from 82.66% to 85.37% (χ2=0.52, P=0.48). The standardization of the service could obviously improve blood pressure control rates (χ2=22.61, P<0.05).ConclusionProgress has been achieved in health management service of hypertension in Sichuan province from 2015 to 2016, however the standardization of the service is needed to be further enhanced.

  • Application effects of innovative health education on patients undergoing ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy

    Objective To explore the application effects of innovative health education on patients undergoing ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods A total of 139 patients undergoing ambulatory LC from November to December 2016 were selected as the control group, receiving the traditional health education; and other 141 patients undergoing ambulatory LC from February to March 2017 were selected as the observation group, receiving the innovative health education. The two groups were followed up and observed 1 day, 2, and 28 days after the discharge, and the incidence rates of adverse reactions such as postoperative pain, bleeding and incision infection were measured, and the disease knowledge mastery, self-care skills, medication compliance and satisfaction to nursing and hospital were evaluated. Results The total incidence rate of adverse reactions was 7.8% in the observation group and 25.2% in the control group (P<0.001). Medication compliance from high to low was 90, 46 and 5 cases in the observation group and 59, 64 and 16 cases in the control group (P<0.001). In the observation group, the scores of disease knowledge mastery, self-care cognition, nursing satisfaction and hospital satisfaction were 93.4±5.5, 91.4±4.5, 96.4±3.7 and 98.1±3.7, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (83.8±8.7, 83.2±9.1, 91.5±9.2 and 94.8±7.3, respectively) with statistical significance (P<0.001). Conclusion Innovative health education has certain application effects on ambulatory LC, and it can significantly improve disease knowledge mastery and self-care cognition, and help to ensure the medical quality and safety during perioperative period, and improve the patients’ satisfaction.
