Preoperative Risk Factors Associated With PACU Pediatric Respiratory Complications: An Integrative Review

PurposeThis article reviews state of the science of preoperative risk factors associated with postanesthesia care unit (PACU) pediatric respiratory complications.DesignAn integrative review.MethodsA search of PubMed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane, and Joanna Briggs Institute databases was performed. Thirty-one articles, published between 2006 and 2018, were appraised for quality and the level of evidence using the Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Model.FindingsThese articles were grouped into the following categories: age, American Society of Anesthesiologists status, gender, airway comorbidities, syndromes, anomalies, pulmonary comorbidities, ethnicity, obesity, neurologic comorbidities, and cardiac comorbidities.ConclusionsEvidence identified significant preoperative and anesthesia risk factors that are associated with PACU pediatric respiratory complications. This article reveals the importance for the perioperative team to identify, assess for, communicate, and develop a management plan for pediatric respiratory complications.     

Modern theatre design and usage: do joint replacements need laminar flow?

Since the introduction of laminar flow to theatre systems by Charnley, it has become a necessity in arthroplasty surgery. His initial work in the 1960s and 70s created improvements in terms of reducing overall rates of periprosthetic joint replacement, but it has been hard to ascertain if this stems from the laminar flow itself or improvements in asepsis and the utilization of perioperative antibiotics. The aim of this paper is therefore to establish if laminar flow is still a necessary addition to modern theatre design, particularly in joint replacement surgery, irrespective of other surgical factors. A wide variety of studies were utilized to form an objective analysis of whether laminar flow is essential to asepsis in theatre design. It explores a number of smaller earlier studies and ends with two large trials which provide evidence that laminar flow may in fact have a deleterious effect on the potential for peri-prosthetic joint infection (PJI). The article discusses potential reasons for these findings and seeks to explain them in context of overall asepsis during joint replacement surgery.     

甲磺酸伊马替尼联合VDLD化疗方案治疗急性淋巴细胞白血病患儿的长期随访研究

目的探究甲磺酸伊马替尼联合VDLD化疗方案治疗急性淋巴细胞白血病(ALL)患儿的应用价值。方法选取2015年5月~2018年6月收治的74例ALL患儿,按照治疗方案不同分组。对照组(37例)实施VDLD方案治疗,联合组(37例)实施甲磺酸伊马替尼+VDLD化疗方案治疗。对比两组疗效、不良反应发生率、随访1年无复发生存率(RFS)及治疗前、治疗2个疗程后血清B淋巴细胞刺激因子(BAFF)、增殖诱导配体(APRIL)水平。结果联合组总有效率(91.89%)高于对照组(72.97%)(P<0.05);联合组治疗2个疗程后血清BAFF、APRIL水平低于对照组(P<0.05);两组不良反应发生率、随访1年RFS对比无显著差异(P>0.05)。结论甲磺酸伊马替尼联合VDLD化疗方案治疗ALL,疗效确切,能显著降低血清BAFF、APRIL水平,且安全性高。     

护士分层级管理对急性肝炎患者护理满意度的影响

目的分析护士分层级管理的实施对急性肝炎患者护理满意度的影响。方法该院自2018年3月起实施护士分层级管理,以该院10名肝病科护理人员为研究对象,其中2017年3月—2018年2月实施前(对照组)及2018年3月—2019年2月实施后(研究组)的管理效果。结果与对照组比较,研究组患者的病房管理、患者护理、文书书写、基础护理、入院宣教方面的护理质量评分均明显升高(P<0.05);与对照组82.29%的护理总满意率比较,研究组护理总满意率显著升高,达到了97.92%(P<0.05);与对照组工作自我满意度比较,研究组患者的自我价值体现等方面的工作自我满意度评分均明显升高(P<0.05)。结论护士分层级管理策略的实施,有效提高了急性肝炎患者护理满意度,提升了科室护理质量。     

Longer Operative Time Results in a Higher Rate of Subsequent Periprosthetic Joint Infection in Patients Undergoing Primary Joint Arthroplasty

Background

Whether prolonged operative time is an independent risk factor for subsequent surgical site infection (SSI) and periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) remains a clinically significant and underexplored issue. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between operative time and the risk of subsequent SSI and PJI in patients undergoing primary TJA.

经鼻导管高流量吸氧与经鼻气道正压通气在重症毛细支气管炎呼吸支持中的应用价值比较

目的：比较经鼻导管高流量吸氧（HFNC）与经鼻气道正压通气（nCPAP）在重症毛细支气管炎呼吸支持中的应用价值，为临床治疗方案的选择提供参考。方法：选取2016年12月至2018年12月我院儿科收治的重症毛细支气管炎患儿90例，采用随机数字表法分为观察组和对照组各45例。两组患儿入院后均给予常规综合治疗以保证呼吸道通畅，在此基础上观察组采用HFNC治疗，对照组采用nCPAP治疗，比较两组患儿治疗前和治疗24 h后呼吸频率、经皮血氧饱和度（TcSO2）、呼吸窘迫评分体系（CSS）评分、动脉血氧分压（PaO2）等呼吸相关指标及治疗前后临床症状体征改善情况。结果：两组患儿治疗24 h后呼吸频率、CSS评分均降低，且观察组降低程度更大，TcSO2、PaO2于治疗24 h后升高，观察组升高幅度较对照组明显；治疗后两组患儿咳嗽及肺部湿啰音、肺部炎症情况均改善，观察组症状体征消失时间早于对照组，差异均有统计学意义（P<0.05）。结论：重症毛细支气管炎患儿采用HFNC治疗可明显改善通气功能和临床症状，治疗效果优于nCPAP治疗，可扩大样本量进一步观察。

Recomendaciones sobre el manejo clínico de la infección por el «nuevo coronavirus» SARS-CoV2. Grupo de trabajo de la Asociación Española de Pediatría (AEP)

On 31 December 2019, the Wuhan Municipal Committee of Health and Healthcare (Hubei Province, China) reported that there were 27 cases of pneumonia of unknown origin with symptoms starting on the 8 December. There were 7 serious cases with common exposure in market with shellfish, fish, and live animals, in the city of Wuhan. On 7 January 2020, the Chinese authorities identified that the agent causing the outbreak was a new type of virus of the Coronaviridae family, temporarily called «new coronavirus», 2019-nCoV. On January 30th, 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared the outbreak an International Emergency. On 11 February 2020 the WHO assigned it the name of SARS-CoV2 and COVID-19 (SARS-CoV2 and COVID-19).The Ministry of Health summoned the Specialties Societies to prepare a clinical protocol for the management of COVID-19. The Spanish Paediatric Association appointed a Working Group of the Societies of Paediatric Infectious Diseases and Paediatric Intensive Care to prepare the present recommendations with the evidence available at the time of preparing them.
