ABSTRACT
Xi'an Jiaotong University Health Science Center introduces the concept of CDIO (conceive, design, implement and operate) into the training practice of medicine-engineering interdisciplinary talents. By optimizing the curriculum and graduate training mechanism, building academic exchanges and innovative experimental platforms, and guiding students to carry out scientific research oriented to clinical problems, Xi'an Jiaotong University Health Science Center uses medical and industrial methods to solve clinical problems and produce medical achievements. The application of the CDIO model is conducive to deepening students' understanding of interdisciplinary knowledge, forming a fused innovative thinking, and improving the ability to solve problems and cooperate with others. The CDIO model is also conducive to the growth of high-level composite innovative talents, clinical technology innovation, team construction and discipline development, which provides new ideas for exploring the training of medical and engineering interdisciplinary talents.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the status of implementation of invasive ventilator circuit changes in ICU nurses at the 3A general hospitals in Shanxi Province, and mastering and demand of related knowledge of ICU nurses, and by this discuss the possible causes of execution inconsistency in invasive ventilator circuit changes interval so as to provide a clear basis for the specification and circuit changes. Methods After a review of relevant literature at home and abroad as well as expert consultation, a self-designed questionnaire was established, take two ways of on-site issuance and mailing, ICU nurses from 13 hospitals were selected randomly to investigate about the invasive circuit changes interval in Shanxi Province. Results A total of 724 nurses from 34 ICU of 13 hospitals were surveyed. A unified circuit changes interval of ICU accounted for 73.5% (527/717). ICU nurses currently provisions and practical implementation of invasive ventilator circuit changes interval tend to 7 d. Different ICU provisions and ICU nurses actual implementation of circuit change were significantly different (χ2=24.839, 35.760, P < 0.01). Conclusions Hospitals should choose the right way to strengthen the ICU nurses invasive ventilator circuit changes training interval and knowledge, to develop the term for their own security environment, thereby reduce the workload of nurses, reduce medical costs and improve care service quality.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To explore the effect of recombinamt rat CC16 protein (rCC16) on LPS-induced expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 in the rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells. METHODS:The RTE cells were incubated with rCC16 at concentrations of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg/L in serum-free media for 2 h prior to LPS (0.1 mg/L) treatment for further 24 h.The cells were harvested for assessing the mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 by RT-qPCR.The cell culture supernatants were collected for analyzing the protein levels of TNF -α, IL-6 and IL-8 by ELISA.In addition, the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 was tested by Western blot.RESULTS:rCC16 inhibited LPS-induced IL-6 and IL-8 expression at both mRNA and protein levels in the RTE cells in a concentration-dependent (0~2 mg/L) manner, as demonstrated by RT-qPCR and ELISA.However, no concentra-tion-dependent manner between the dose of rCC 16 and TNF-αexpression was observed , and rCC16 inhibited LPS-induced TNF-αexpression at lower concentration (0.5 mg/L).rCC16 concentration-dependently inhibited the effects of LPS on the level of nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65.CONCLUSION:rCC16 suppresses LPS-mediated TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 pro-duction through inactivation of NF-κB activity in RTE cells .
