单兆伟运用温经汤治疗女性肾虚泄泻经验

全国名中医、孟河医派传人单兆伟教授擅长胃肠病诊治,临证擅用《金匮要略》温经汤治疗女性肾虚型泄泻。认为温经汤的主要适应证是肝肾虚寒型的女性腹泻和(或)月经不调,肝脾肾三脏虚寒、寒凝而瘀、虚瘀相因、寒热错杂是温经汤证的病机特点,泄下清谷、脉象沉细或细涩、舌质淡黯有齿痕或瘀点是温经汤的主要应用指证。     

医用粘胶相关性皮肤损伤的文献计量学分析

目的: 应用文献计量学方法,分析国内外医用粘胶相关性皮肤损伤（Medical adhesive-related skin injuries,MARSI）文献的研究主题和热点。方法: 检索Cochrane Library、PubMed、EMbase、Web of science、sinoMed、CNKI、Wanfang、VIP等数据库MARSI相关文献,检索时限为建库至2019年5月。采用SPSS 22.0 软件进行文献计量分析,利用gCLUTO统计对国内外高频主题词进行聚类分析。结果: 共纳入论文103篇,其中外文文献占总文献量的27.18%,中文文献占总文献量的72.82%。聚类分析将国内外高频主题词聚为4大类,依次为皮肤损伤及损伤类型、相关危险因素、风险评估及风险管理、护理干预措施。结论: MARSI仍是国内外研究的热点,其发病机制研究仍处于探索阶段,目前尚缺乏有效的预防策略,研究领域较局限。在今后的研究中,应加强MARSI预防的研究、注重多学科合作。     

The Cost of Poor Mental Health in Total Joint Arthroplasty

BackgroundThe purpose of this analysis was to evaluate (1) the impact of depression on resource utilization and financial outcomes in bundled total joint arthroplasty (TJA) and (2) whether similar effects are seen using baseline patient-reported outcome scores.MethodsAll elective bundled TJA cases from 2017 to 2018 at an academic system in the New York City area were included. We analyzed variables associated with cost differences seen between patients with and without depression, and between patients with low (<40th percentile) and high baseline (>60th percentile) Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey mental component scores (MCSs). We also analyzed whether depression or low MCS could predict worse financial outcomes.ResultsOur population included 825 patients, 418 with patient-reported outcome scores data. Depression was associated with higher rates of skilled nursing facility (SNF) discharge (42.7% vs 36.5%, P = .04), SNF payments ($16,200 vs $12,100, P = .0002), and average total episode costs ($31,000 vs $27,000, P = .04). Depression predicted bundle cost to be greater than target price (OR 1.82, 95% CI: 1.04-.16; P = .04) and SNF payment greater than 75th percentile (OR: 1.91; 95% CI: 1.00-3.65; P < .05). Similar effects were not seen using MCS.ConclusionThis is the first study to determine that depression predicts bundle cost greater than target price and SNF payment greater than 75th percentile. Our results emphasize the importance of accurate preoperative assessment of mental health in optimization of care, focusing on attenuating the increased SNF payments associated with depression. As similar effects were not seen using MCS, future studies should analyze the use of validated screening tools for depression, such as the PHQ-9, for more accurate assessments of patient mental health in TJA.     

Reducing low value services in surgical inpatients in Taiwan: Does diagnosis-related group payment work?

Reducing low-value care is a top priority in health care. However, how prospective payment methods such as diagnosis-related group (DRG) payment scheme reduce the use of low-value services is unclear. This study aimed to assess frequency of low-value preoperative testing services among surgical inpatients over time and to investigate whether the 2010 Tw-DRG policy has reduced utilization of these services under the National Health Insurance program in Taiwan. The nationwide National Health Insurance claims data in Taiwan from 2008 to 2013 were used. The difference-in-differences (DID) method was adopted. Utilization of three low-value preoperative testing services (chest x-ray, echocardiogram, and stress testing) were assessed. The prevalence of the three preoperative tests ranged from 0.13 per 100 admissions (preoperative stress testing) to 78.12 per 100 admissions (preoperative chest x-ray). Following the implementation of the Tw-DRG policy, the predicted probability of low-value care use was significantly reduced from 67.91% to 64.93% in the DRG group but remained relatively stable in the comparison group (from 69.44% to 68.43%) in 2010. The use of three selected preoperative tests had only a minor temporary reduction in 2010, but later increased over time. The 2010 Tw-DRG policy did not significantly moderate the growth of low-value preoperative use. Hospital financial incentives alone may be insufficient for reducing the provision of low-value care.
