Empowering the Nurse Practitioner With the Reproductive Justice Framework

On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled to strike down Roe v. Wade (1973), a landmark decision that legalized access to abortion under the right to privacy. By overturning Roe, the decision now leaves the regulation of abortion up to each individual state. Consideration of the consequences that will affect vulnerable populations is paramount now that Roe v. Wade is overturned. Nurse practitioners who are impartial toward abortion should be introduced to Reproductive Justice, which can help them better understand the lived experiences of people with the capacity for pregnancy and the complexities surrounding abortion.     

Louisiana's “Medically Futile” Unborn Child List: Ethical Lessons at the Post-Dobbs Intersection of Reproductive and Disability Justice

Ableist attitudes and structures are increasingly recognized across all sectors of health care delivery. After Dobbs, novel questions arose in the United States concerning how to protect reproductive autonomy while avoiding discrimination against and devaluation of disabled persons. In this essay, we examine the Louisiana Department of Health's emergency declaration, “List of Conditions That Shall Deem an Unborn Child ‘Medically Futile,’” issued August 1, 2022. We raise a number of medical, ethical, and public health concerns that lead us to argue that the declaration should be rescinded. Analysis of this ethically objectionable declaration provides valuable lessons about how to uphold both reproductive and disability justice in a post-Dobbs landscape.     

妊娠合并自发性卵巢过度刺激综合征一例

卵巢过度刺激综合征是辅助生殖技术常见的并发症,通常在排卵后2周或2周以上发生。然而自发性卵巢过度刺激综合征极其罕见,一些病例报道表明,自发性卵巢过度刺激综合征的发生与卵泡刺激素受体突变、高人绒毛膜促性腺激素水平、高促甲状腺激素水平、促性腺激素垂体腺瘤等有关。现报告1例双胎妊娠合并自发性卵巢过度刺激综合征的病例,并进一步探讨自发性卵巢过度刺激综合征的可能病因、诊断和治疗原则。     

复发性流产患者病因构成分析

背景　复发性流产（RSA）发病率呈逐年上升趋势，严重影响妇女身心健康，目前现代医学对RSA的病因和发病机制尚未完全明确。目的　了解RSA病因的分布情况，以及流产孕周与流产次数和RSA病因之间的关系。方法　选取2018年在新疆医科大学第二附属医院确诊为RSA的患者198例，收集患者的一般资料包括年龄、自然流产次数、流产孕周，并筛查患者的病因：染色体异常、生殖道解剖结构异常、内分泌系统异常、生殖道感染、自身免疫异常等，并对这些资料进行回顾性分析。根据患者的流产孕周，分为早期RSA组（<12周）（155例）和晚期RSA组（≥12周）（43例）；根据流产次数分为2次组（123例）和≥3次组（75例）。分析RSA患者各病因所占比例，以及RSA病因在不同流产孕周组和不同流产次数组间的差异。结果　198例RSA患者，染色体异常9例（4.55%），生殖道解剖结构异常11例（5.56%），内分泌系统异常36例（18.18%），生殖道感染14例（7.07%），自身免疫异常30例（15.15%），不明病因98例（49.49%）。晚期RSA组患者生殖道解剖结构异常发生率大于早期RSA组，不明病因发生率低于早期RSA组（P<0.05）；早期RSA组与晚期RSA组患者染色体异常、内分泌系统异常、生殖道感染、自身免疫异常发生率比较，差异均无统计学意义（P>0.05）。流产次数2次组和流产次数≥3次组患者染色体异常、生殖道解剖结构异常、内分泌系统异常、生殖道感染、自身免疫异常、不明病因发生率比较，差异均无统计学意义（P>0.05）。结论　导致RSA的病因有多种，包括染色体异常、生殖道解剖结构异常、内分泌系统异常、生殖道感染、自身免疫异常及不明病因等多种因素，其中不明病因的RSA占多数；生殖道解剖结构异常对妊娠晚期的影响大于妊娠早期。     

Metrics of Survival: Post-Abortion Care and Reproductive Rights in Senegal

ABSTRACT

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in Senegal between 2010 and 2011, I demonstrate how health professionals have deployed indicators such as number of women and abortion type treated in government hospitals to demonstrate commitment to global mandates on reproductive rights. These indicators obscure discrimination against women suspected of illegal abortion as health workers negotiate obstetric treatment with the abortion law. By measuring hospitals’ capacity to keep women with abortion complications alive, post-abortion care (PAC) indicators have normalized survival as a state of reproductive well-being.     

保留自主呼吸对于重度急性呼吸窘迫综合征患者的影响：弊大于利

急性呼吸窘迫综合征（ARDS）是临床上常见的以顽固性低氧为表现的呼吸功能不全或衰竭的综合征，肺不均一性是其主要病理生理特点。传统观点认为，保留ARDS患者自主呼吸有助于改善全身氧合。但是近年来发现，对于重度ARDS患者，保留患者自主呼吸会加重肺损伤，过强的自主呼吸会导致重度ARDS患者跨肺压升高、肺内气体摆动、肺水肿加重以及人机不同步，引起患者肺内炎症加重，氧合功能恶化，最终影响患者预后，增加病死率。本文就自主呼吸对重度ARDS患者呼吸功能的影响机制展开综述。     

微信平台在门诊人工流产妇女延续护理中的应用效果

目的 调查基于微信公众平台在门诊人工流产妇女延续护理中的应用效果。 方法 选取234例门诊人工流产妇女,根据患者的入院顺序奇偶数进行编号分为微信组和普通组,每组117例,普通组采用传统门诊宣教,微信组在此基础上应用微信公众平台进行网络健康教育、多层次的医患沟通、门诊预约就诊等延续护理,比较2组避孕措施的掌握情况、避孕措施的运用情况。 结果 干预1个月后微信组避孕措施掌握情况明显好于普通组(t=3.923,P<0.001);干预4个月后,微信组未使用避孕措施的患者少于普通组(χ²=4.294,P=0.038)。 结论 微信延续护理可提高对人工流产妇女的关爱,降低重复流产率。
