【摘要】 目的 Ⅲ型主動脈夾層非體外循環腔內支架隔離術在圍手術期應用硝普鈉控制性降壓易導致精神失常，總結相關護理經驗。 方法 2009年7月-2010年2月確診Ⅲ型主動脈夾層動脈瘤患者36例，圍手術期應用硝普鈉控制性降壓，均采用非體外循環主動脈腔內隔離術治療，排除手術、麻醉等因素所致腦損傷而產生的術后精神異常。 結果 有5例出現不同程度精神失常，經加用口服降壓藥，減少硝普鈉泵入劑量，縮短硝普鈉使用時間，經過精心治療及護理，患者精神異常癥狀逐漸減輕直至消失。 結論 長期、大劑量應用硝普鈉易導致精神失常，需加強護理，及時發現，及時處理。【Abstract】 Objective To summarize the nursing experiences for mental disorders caused by sodium nitroprusside used to cure hypertension in patients receiving off-pump intervention surgery for DeBackey Ⅲ aortic dissection. Methods From July 2009 to February 2010, 36 patients were diagnosed to have DeBackey Ⅲ aortic dissection in our department. All patients received off-pump intervention surgery. We used sodium nitroprusside to control hypertension during the operation. Mental disorders caused by brain damage from surgery, anesthesia and other factors were ruled out. Results Five patients suffered from psychiatric disorders. Oral antihypertensive drugs were used, and we reduced the dose and shortened the time of using sodium nitroprusside. After intensive treatment and care, the symptoms of mental disorders alleviated and disappeared. Conclusion Long-term and large dose of sodium nitroprusside can easily lead to mental disorders, which requires intensive care, timely detection and treatment.
ObjectiveTo discuss the key nursing points for patients with infective endocarditis and congenital isolated kidney after valve replacement.
MethodsIn December 2012, one infective endocarditis patient with isolated kidney underwent heart valve replacement in our hospital. In addition to actively preventing postoperative infection of the heart valve, our nursing focused mainly on the isolated kidney protection and monitoring, and the related complications.
ResultsThe surgery was successful, and the isolated kidney was effectively protected. The patient recovered and was discharged from the hospital.
ConclusionFor patients with congenital isolated kidney with infective endocarditis, patients' urine output per hour and 24 h discrepancy quantity should be closely observed after valve replacement surgery. It is also very important to intervene early and carry out comprehensive protection of the renal function.
With the opening of the two child policy in China, the number of pregnant women has increased. Pregnancy has a huge impact on the cardiovascular system, and heart disease during pregnancy increases the risk of maternal heart failure and death, intrauterine growth retardation, and the risk of complications such as premature birth. Pregnancy with heart disease ranks first among indirect obstetric deaths in China. Reducing maternal mortality is a global goal of the World Health Organization. Thus, to strengthen the prevention and management of patients with critical heart disease during pregnancy is important. However, clinical decision-making and management of pregnant women with heart disease is still controversial. This article combines relevant literature of pregnancy and heart disease published in recent years and reviews of relevant diagnostic and therapeutic methods, to provide clinical reference for pregnant women with heart disease preventive care and management of the whole strategy.
Delirium is an acute, transient, usually reversible, fluctuating disturbance in consciousness, attention, cognition, and perception. Delirium after cardiac operations is associated with increased morbidity, reduced cognitive functioning, increased short-term and long-term mortality, longer hospitalization and higher hospitalization cost. The diagnosis, prevention and treatment of delirium are of great importance for perioperative care of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Effective delirium screening tools are very helpful for the recognition and monitoring of delirium after cardiac surgery. In recent years, there has been many new strategies for the treatment, nursing care and prevention of delirium after cardiac surgery. This review focuses on the incidence, risk factors, diagnostic methods, treatment and preventive strategies of delirium after cardiac surgery.
Although the incidence of gastrointestinal hemorrhage after cardiac surgery is low, the mortality rate is high. Early detection and diagnosis of gastrointestinal hemorrhage are difficult. The high risk phases including preoperation, intraoperation and postoperation. Preoperative high risk comorbidities include gastrointestinal ulcer, hypertension, coronary heart disease and chronic renal failure. Intraoperative high risk factors include decreased gastrointestinal blood perfusion due to cardiopulmonary bypass, inflammatory factors releasing, coagulation disorders, and thrombosis. Postoperative high risk factors include hypotension, low cardiac output, prolonged mechanical ventilation, etc. This article retrospectively summarized high-risk factors and pathogenesis of gastrointestinal hemorrhage after cardiac surgery, in order to improve prevention and treatment of gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
