Objective:To investigate the relationship between enteral nutrition-related diarrhea and intestinal flora in critically ill patients and the effect of microflora transplantation.Methods:A total of 60 critically ill patients with enteral nutrition-related diarrhea who were scheduled to undergo microflora transplantation in Taizhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2020 to August 2021 were prospectively and continuously selected as the research group, and 60 critically ill patients without enteral nutrition-related diarrhea were selected as the control group. The bacterial count of 4 kinds of intestinal flora in the feces including bifidobacterium, lactobacillus, enterococcus, and escherichia coli were detected and compared between the two groups, and the value of the fecal colony numbers of 4 kinds of intestinal flora in diagnosing non-enteral nutrition-related diarrhea in critically ill patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. All patients in the research group received microflora transplantation, and the diarrhea score, hematochezia score, partial Mayo score and European five-dimension health scale (EQ-5D) were detected and compared before treatment, 1 week after treatment and 1 month after treatment to evaluate the treatment effect. The Pearson linear correlation method was used to analyze the relationship between the colony count of 4 kinds of intestinal flora colonies in the feces of the research group at baseline and the therapeutic indexes for 1 week and 1 month after treatment.Results:The number of fecal bifidobacterium and lactobacillus colonies in the study group were lower than those in the control group: (7.12 ± 0.58) × 10 7 cfu/L vs. (11.85 ± 1.25) × 10 7 cfu/L, (8.78 ± 1.05) × 10 7 cfu/L vs. (11.25 ± 1.57) ×10 7 cfu/L. The colony number of enterococcus and Escherichia coli were higher than those of control group: (8.58 ± 0.88) × 10 7 cfu/L vs. (3.84 ± 0.72) ×10 7 cfu/L, (8.25 ± 0.97) ×10 7 cfu/L vs. (3.66 ± 0.63) ×10 7 cfu/L. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve of fecal bifidobacterium, lactobacillus, enterococcus and escherichia coli colonies in diagnosing patients with enteral nutrition-related diarrhea were all >0.7, which had certain diagnostic value. The diarrhea scores, stool blood scores and some Mayo scores of the study group at 1 week and 1 month after treatment were lower than those before treatment: (1.52 ± 0.36) and (1.13 ± 0.24) points vs. (2.45 ± 0.51) points, (0.95 ± 0.28) and (0.77 ± 0.21) points vs. (2.39 ± 0.54) points, (4.17 ± 1.24) and (3.26 ± 0.85) points vs. (7.86 ± 1.82) points, and the EQ-5D score of patients 1 week and 1 month after treatment was higher than that before treatment: (0.66 ± 0.11) and (0.79 ± 0.13) points vs. (0.58 ± 0.08) points, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The intestinal flora of critically ill patients is closely related to enteral nutrition-related diarrhea, and can affect the therapeutic effect of bacterial flora transplantation and the health status of patients.

Objective To develop a measuring tool for the elderly care service needs in the community.Methods Based on the literature search and Delphi expert consultation,a measuring tool for elderly care service needs was developed.The reliability (internal consistency coefficient) and validity (surface validity,content validity,criterion-related validity) of the developed measurement tool were evaluated with on-site expert consultation and the cross-sectional survey.Results A 11-dimension measurement tool was developed,which covered physical health,mental health and desires for old-age support assessment.The reliability evaluation showed that there was significant correlation (P<0.05) among the measurement dimensions of the physical health and the mental health of the elderly in community.The validity evaluation showed that the measurement methods for the measurement dimensions of the elderly care needs,including the evaluation items,evaluation methods,and rating methods,all got below 2 scores in applicability assessment,and the measurement methods of the self-care ability,vision,the self-willingness/information expression of the elderly,the ability of the elderly to understand the willingness/information expressed by others,and the ability to provide family care were all supported by more than 50% experts,which indicated that the surface validity and content validity were good.There was a significant positive correlation between the living places of the elderly and the needsof elderly care services (r=0.214,P<0.01),and there were significant correlations between all measurement dimensions with the living place except anxiety (P<0.05),which indicated that the measurement tool had an acceptable criterion-related validity.The consistency of self-supporting willingness,the family willingness to care for the elderly with the current old-age care place were relatively poor (Kappa=0.063,P=0.007;Kappa=0.051,P=0.006).Conclusion The overall performance of the measurement tool for the elderly care service needs developed in this study is acceptable.It has been approved by both the elderly care service suppliers and the elderly care service needs evaluators.It also shows some internal consistency in measurement results of the demanders,and is consistent with the actual living place.
