Reliability of the Functional Independence Measure with Occupational Therapists

This paper reports an inter-rater reliability study on the Functional Independence Measure (FIM). The FIM measures inpatient burden of care, as reflected in 18 self care items, rated on a seven point scale from dependent to independent. The subjects were 40 occupational therapists, divided according to experience with the FIM and randomly assigned to a FIM training or non-training group. Subjects rated video tapes of four stroke patients on transfers, bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting and eating items from the FIM. Rater consensus was calculated using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), percentage agreement and a measure of disagreement. Rating accuracy was measured by comparisons with an expert rater. Ratings were most reliable when done by clinicians with no prior FIM experience, from the FIM training group. It is strongly recommended that all clinicians undergo FIM training before using this tool to ensure acceptable reliability.

Comparison of gas-liquid chromatography and EMIT assay for serum valproic acid

We describe a simple direct extraction method for the gas-liquid chromatography determination of serum valproic acid. The working range for the assay is 2-180 mg/L and our within-run precision was 5.8 and 4.3% at the 40 and 90 mg/L concentrations respectively. Hemolyzed and lipemic sera as well as samples from patients with hyperbilirubinemia and from patients with decreased renal function were put through the assay and no interfering peaks were noted. Interference occurred when teflon-lined screw caps were used during the extraction step. The method was proven to be accurate by linear regression analysis of samples containing weighed-in amounts of valproic acid. The above assay was compared to an enzyme immunoassay technique (EMIT). The working range for the latter is 10-150 mg/L and the with-run precision was 10.8 and 5.9% and 90 mg/L concentration respectively. Samples were run by both the gas-liquid chromatograph and enzyme immunoassay methods and gave very similar results over the range 16-139 mg/L.     

先天性胆总管囊肿23例的术式及疗效分析

目的：探讨先天性胆总管囊肿的术式及疗效。方法：回顾分析手术治疗先天性胆总管囊肿23例，其中Roux-Y囊肿-空肠吻合8例；囊肿切除，Roux-Y肝总管-空肠吻合15例。结果：20例获得随访，Roux-Y囊肿-空肠吻合随访6例，仅2例无症状，另4例反复发作腹痛，发热或黄疸，其中1例再手术，囊肿切除，Roux-Y肝总管-空肠吻合随访14例。仅1例有腹痛，余13例无症状，结论：Roux-Y肝总管-空肠吻合是治疗先天性胆总管囊肿的首选术式。     

妊娠合并肝内胆汁郁积症的围生儿结局57例分析

目的 探讨妊娠合并肝内胆汁郁积症（ICP）患者致围生儿不良结局的相关指标。方法 总结本院57例ICP患者的相关临床资料，将其与围生儿结局进行分组对照分析。结果 血清胆汁酸升高与围生儿不良结局关系不明显（P＞0.05)；血清转氨酶水平在产生围生儿不良结局组与未产生围生儿不良结局组之间有显著性差异（P＞0.01)；皮肤瘙痒持续时间大于3周组围生儿不良结局发生率与持续时间小于3周组有显著性差异（P＜0.05)；有、无NST基线变异消失组的围生儿不良结局发生率有极显著性差异（P＜0.01)。结论 血清转氨酶水平、皮肤瘙痒持续时间及NST基线变异是否消失是预示围生儿不良结局的相关指标。     

Measuring the Quality of Hospital-based Domestic Violence Programs

OBJECTIVE: To obtain consensus among a panel of experts on performance measures useful for evaluating the quality of hospital-based domestic violence (DV) programs. METHODS: The Delphi process of consensus development was used with a panel of 18 experts including DV researchers, program planners, and advocates. Three rounds were conducted over a period of six months, with each round involving the completion of a written questionnaire. Panelists were instructed to concentrate on structure and process measures of DV program performance. Health outcome measures were not considered. During each round, panelists rated (scale of 1-5) their level of agreement with each measure, in terms of the measure's usefulness for evaluating hospital-based DV programs. Data were entered into SPSS on a personal computer and frequency distributions, measures of central tendency, and variance were computed for each measure. Consensus development was defined as a reduction in the item-specific variance from one round to the next. RESULTS: A total of 37 performance measures were agreed upon. These measures fell within nine different domains of DV program activities, including: Policies and Procedures, Hospital Physical Environment, Hospital Cultural Environment, Training of Providers, Screening and Safety Assessment, Documentation, Intervention Services, Evaluation Activities, and Collaboration. CONCLUSIONS: A number of measures have been identified as useful for evaluating hospital-based DV programs. Use of these measures should assist researchers, program planners, and administrators in assessing the quality of hospital-based DV programs.     

东莨菪碱诱发染色体畸变的剂量效应

东茛菪碱五个剂量(1、2、5、10、20μg/ml作用于12名健康成人外周血淋巴细胞培养液诱发染色体畸变,并设空白对照组(生理盐水)。染色体畸变率分别为3.±0.5,9.6±1.1,11.7±1.1,13.6±2.3,18.0±3.0和17.5±2.0％;细胞畸变率为3.1±0.6,9.2±0.6,10.0±0.8,10.8±1.5,11.6±1.8和12.2±14.％。各剂量组与对照组比较差异高度显著(P<0.01)。方差分析,各剂量组间变异的差异高度显著(P<0.01)。相关系数和回归系数也非常显著(P<0.01)。结果表明,东莨菪碱剂量与染色体畸变率和细胞畸变率有线性关系。
