Patient Satisfaction, Treatment Experience, and Disability Outcomes in a Population-Based Cohort of Injured Workers in Washington State: Implications for Quality Improvement

Objective. To determine what aspects of patient satisfaction are most important in explaining the variance in patients' overall treatment experience and to evaluate the relationship between treatment experience and subsequent outcomes.
Data Sources and Setting. Data from a population-based survey of 804 randomly selected injured workers in Washington State filing a workers' compensation claim between November 1999 and February 2000 were combined with insurance claims data indicating whether survey respondents were receiving disability compensation payments for being out of work at 6 or 12 months after claim filing.
Study Design. We conducted a two-step analysis. In the first step, we tested a multiple linear regression model to assess the relationship of satisfaction measures to patients' overall treatment experience. In the second step, we used logistic regression to assess the relationship of treatment experience to subsequent outcomes.
Principal Findings. Among injured workers who had ongoing follow-up care after their initial treatment ( n =681), satisfaction with interpersonal and technical aspects of care and with care coordination was strongly and positively associated with overall treatment experience ( p <0.001). As a group, the satisfaction measures explained 38 percent of the variance in treatment experience after controlling for demographics, satisfaction with medical care prior to injury, job satisfaction, type of injury, and provider type. Injured workers who reported less-favorable treatment experience were 3.54 times as likely (95 percent confidence interval, 1.20–10.95, p= .021) to be receiving time-loss compensation for inability to work due to injury 6 or 12 months after filing a claim, compared to patients whose treatment experience was more positive.     

微小病毒B19宫内感染与早产儿、足月小于胎龄儿的相关研究

目的　观察人类微小病毒B19(HPVB19)宫内感染与早产儿、足月小于胎龄儿的关系。方法　采用ELISA方法对 35例早产儿、30例足月小于胎龄儿进行了血清HPVB19 IgM及IgG的检测 ,并将 4 8例正常新生儿脐血作为对照组。结果　 35例早产儿中HPVB19 IgM阳性率为 2 8 5 7% (10 /35 ) ,30例足月小于胎龄儿组HPVB19 IgM阳性率为 2 3 33% (7/30 ) ,4 8例正常对照组中HPVB19 IgM阳性率为 4 17% (2 /48)。两组与正常对照组比较 ,差异有非常显著性意义 [χ2 =7 87,P <0 0 1,相对危险度 (RR) =6 84 ;χ2 =4 90 ,P <0 0 5RR =5 6 ]。结论　微小病毒B19宫内感染与早产的发生、胎儿宫内生长迟缓相关。

工作场所空气中奥克托今高效液相色谱测定方法研究

目的：建立工作场所空气中奥克托今的高效液相色谱测定方法。方法：按照《工作场所空气中毒物检测方法的研制规范》的要求，进行实验室试验和验证试验及现场应用试验。结果：方法的检测限为0．81μg／ml（进样10μl洗脱液），最低检出浓度为0．017mg／m^3（以采集240L空气样品计）。当HMX含量为0—200．0μg／ml时，标准曲线线性关系良好。相关系数r=0．9999．高、中、低3个浓度的样品，6次重复测定，相对标准偏差为0．12％，1．30％，洗脱效率为94．88％～104．75％，方法的回收率为94．27％～102．05％，样品在室温至少可保存14d，奥克托今浓度为0．12，39，82mg／m^3，采样效率为91．20％～100．00％，工作场所空气中与奥克托今共存的三硝基甲苯、黑索今、二硝基甲苯，对奥克托今测定无干扰。结论：本方法各项指标达到《工作场所空气中毒物检测方法的研制规范》的要求，适用于工作场所空气中奥克托今的现场监测及样品纯度的检测。     

高位硬膜外麻醉和全麻对婴幼儿动脉导管未闭手术控制性降压的影响

目的观察高位硬膜外麻醉和全麻异氟烷吸入在婴幼儿动脉导管未闭(PDA)手术降压中的临床应用。方法将40例患儿分为2组:高位硬膜外麻醉组(20例)和全麻异氟烷吸入组(20例),观察比较2组的降压效果。结果2组降压效果比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),高位硬膜外麻醉组在手术结束时心血管指标恢复平稳,与全麻异氟烷吸入组相比,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),而且拔管时间明显缩短。结论2种降压方法均可行控制性降压,高位硬膜外麻醉使婴幼儿心血管反应更加稳定,对循环系统的扰乱程度轻,保护了婴幼儿的应激反应。
