Methods： Five cases involving patients enrolled in a clinical trial were divided into two groups, pre-SOP training and post-SOP training, to compare and observe the process problems and whether nurses fol- lowed SOPs in clinical trials. The causes of problems were analyzed and corrective measures were proposed. Results： Our results indicate significant improvement in compliance with SOPs after training. There were three occurrences of irregular behavior after training compared with 21 occurrences of irregular behavior before training. Conclusions： The quality of clinical trials can be improved if nurses strictly follow SOPs.展开更多

Presently, shunt and disconnection are commonlyused for surgical treatment of portal hypertension. The aimof this study was conducted to analyze the results of a modi-fied Sugiura procedure for the management of 160 cirrhoticpatients with portal hypertension.METHODS: The results of a modified Sugiura procedurefor the treatment of 160 cirrhotic patients with portal hyper-tension from January 1991 to July 2002 were retrospectivelyanalyzed.RESULTS: The operative mortality for the procedure waszero. Postoperative intra-abdominal bleeding was noted in2 patients, drowned lung in 1, pneumonia in 1, and splenicvenous thrombosis in 4. Of the 160 patients, 157 (98%)were followed up from 6 months to 11.5 years. Of the 157patients, only one died of hepatic coma 6 years after opera-tion, and 3 of rebleeding. The absolute and relative survivalrates were 97.5% (156/160) and 99% (159/160), respective-ly. The absolute and relative occurrence rates of hepatic co-ma were 2.5% (4/160) and 0.6% (1/157), respectively. Theabsolute and relative occurrence rates of rebleeding were3.8% (6/160) and 1.9% (3/157) , respectively. In 96 of 116Child B patients (82.8%), liver function improved frompreoperative class B to A 3 months after operation. Sixty-five patients were subjected to gastroscopy and 22 patients,esophageal barium photography 6 months after operation.Gastro-esophageal varices disappeared in 56 patients(64.4%, 56/87), obviously improved in 30 (34.5%, 30/87),and unchanged in 1 (1.2%, 1/87). The occurrence rate ofportal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) was 13.9% (9/65).CONCLUSION: Our results showed that the modifiedSugiura procedure is effective in the treatment of portal hy-pertension, with a low rate of operative complication,bleeding recurrence, and hepatic coma.展开更多

The study employs a thorough methodology, combining observational insights to develop a comprehensive SOP. Implementation at different firms resulted in significant improvements, reducing product waste and enhancing overall efficiency. The use of virtual reality further augments SOP adoption. The findings underscore SOPs’ transformative influence, offering a tangible solution to challenges in the food production sector. Recommendations include regular SOP reviews and ongoing training for sustained success. Different firms exemplify SOPs as indispensable tools for operational excellence.展开更多

Methods: A total of 85 elderly patients with lung cancer treated in our hospital from May 2022 to May 2023 were included as the study population for this research. They were divided into a study group of 42 cases and a regular group of 43 cases. The regular group of elderly patients received routine nursing care, while the study group of elderly patients was provided with the operating room nursing care work procedure sheet. The surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, time to mobilization, and postoperative complication rate were compared and analyzed between the two groups. Results: Compared to the regular group, the study group had significantly shorter surgical duration and time to mobilization, as well as less intraoperative blood loss (P < 0.05). The overall incidence of postoperative complications in the study group (4.76%) was significantly lower than that in the regular group (19.05%) (P Conclusion: Formulating the operating room nursing work procedure sheet for elderly lung cancer patients can effectively improve surgical efficiency, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, and promote patient prognosis in thoracoscopic radical surgery. Therefore, this model is worth promoting and adopting in clinical practice.展开更多
文摘Traditional Chinese medicine breast massage,also known as breast Tuina or manual expression of breast milk,is a technique of using certain manipulations to act on specific positions or acupoints of the breast to promote blood and lymphatic circulation of breast and facilitate the discharge of stagnant milk.This technique is widely used in China to treat breastfeeding problems such as breast engorgement,mastitis,and postpartum hypogalactia.In this article,we introduce the definition and standardization process of breast massage,elaborate the operating procedures of breast massage in detail,and summarize and discuss the current situation of its clinical application,so as to provide a reference for its wide application and in‑depth research.
