Human factors in pelvic surgery

In the pelvis, anatomic complexity and difficulty in visualization and access make surgery a formidable task. Surgeons are prone to work-related musculoskeletal injuries from the frequently poor design and flow of their work environment. This is exacerbated by the strain of surgery in the pelvis. These injuries can result in alterations to a surgeons practice, inadvertent patient injury, and even early retirement. Human factors examines the relationships between the surgeon, their instruments and their environment. By bridging physiology, psychology, and ergonomics, human factors allows a better understanding of some of the challenges posed by pelvic surgery. The operative approach involved (open, laparoscopic, robotic, or perineal) plays an important role in the relevant human factors. Improved understanding of ergonomics can mitigate these risks to surgeons. Other human factors approaches such as standardization, use of checklists, and employing resiliency efforts can all improve patient safety in the operating theatre.     

Secondary Qualitative Analysis of Moral Injury in Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses

ObjectiveTo investigate the presence of symptoms of moral injury in obstetric and neonatal nurses.DesignA secondary qualitative analysis using an analytic expansion of three primary studies.SettingPostal mail and electronic surveys.ParticipantsI used three primary studies: participants in the first consisted of 78 labor and delivery nurses, participants in the second consisted of 75 nurse-midwives, and participants in the third consisted of 22 NICU nurses.MethodsI used Krippendorff’s content analysis method for qualitative data to reanalyze the three primary data sets. The categories I used in this analysis were the 10 symptoms of moral injury that are assessed by the Moral Injury Symptoms Scale–Health Professionals Version.ResultsWhen combining the three types of obstetric and neonatal participants, the top three most frequently cited symptoms of moral injury were moral concern, guilt, and self-condemnation. For participants in labor and delivery units and NICUs, moral concern was the most often described symptom, whereas for participants in midwifery it was guilt. None of the participants reported loss of meaning in their lives, loss of faith, or religious struggle. Participants who worked in NICUs did not describe any symptoms of shame or difficulty forgiving.ConclusionIn addition to the primary symptoms of moral injury, reported secondary consequences of moral injury can include depression, anxiety, anger, self-harm, and social problems. Interventions such as acceptance and commitment therapy are needed to help nurses address the potential for moral injury and repair its effects. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, now more than ever, moral injury needs to be recognized in obstetric and neonatal nurses and not just in the military population.     

1例重型弥漫性轴索损伤伴肺挫裂伤患者的肺康复护理

总结1例重型弥漫性轴索损伤伴肺挫裂伤患者的肺康复护理经验。护理要点包括：组建多学科肺康复管理团队,实施个性化呼吸支持与降阶梯序贯氧疗护理,精准廓清呼吸道,开展一体化的早期肺功能康复锻炼。经过多学科团队合作,患者入院后第12天撤离呼吸机,第17天拔除气管插管,第20天下床活动,第37天顺利出院,随访6个月,患者恢复良好。     

胶质淋巴系统——脑部疾病机制研究新方向

胶质淋巴系统是一个主要由星形胶质细胞水通道蛋白4介导的依靠动脉、静脉周围血管间隙的脑脊液-脑组织液交换流动的系统，是阿尔茨海默病、脑卒中、帕金森病、失眠、抑郁症等脑病的共同特征，是一条新的脑代谢途径，可以清除包括β-淀粉样蛋白、乳酸在内的代谢产物。本文综合分析了全球有关胶质淋巴系统在脑部疾病的研究，得出：胶质淋巴系统可能为神经退行性疾病等发病机制和诊治策略研究带来新视角；胶质淋巴系统有望为一些脑部疾病诊断提供新的有效证据；胶质淋巴系统可能是脑部疾病治疗给药方式的新途径。     

关节镜下半月板成形术对膝关节半月板损伤患者血清疼痛因子、一氧化氮、透明质酸及关节活动度的影响

目的探讨关节镜下半月板成形术(AMP)对膝关节半月板损伤患者血清疼痛因子、一氧化氮(NO)、透明质酸(HA)及关节活动度的影响。方法选取2019年5月—2020年12月收治的90例膝关节半月板损伤为研究对象,根据治疗方法不同分为对照组和治疗组,每组45例。对照组接受保守治疗,治疗组行AMP治疗。比较两组的临床疗效,治疗前后的血清前列腺素E₂(PGE₂)、5-羟色胺(5-HT)、NO、HA、疼痛视觉模拟评分法(VAS)评分和膝关节活动度。记录两组治疗并发症发生情况。结果治疗组疗效优良率高于对照组(P<0.05)。治疗后,两组血清PGE₂、5-HT、NO、HA水平均较治疗前下降,且治疗组低于对照组(P<0.05)。治疗后1、2、3、4周,两组VAS评分均较治疗前降低,且治疗组低于对照组(P<0.05)。治疗后,两组膝关节屈伸活动度均较治疗前升高,且治疗组高于对照组(P<0.05)。两组并发症发生率比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论AMP对膝关节半月板损伤疗效良好,可减少疼痛因子生成,控制NO、HA水平,提高关节活动度。
