ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the nursing impact of traditional Chinese medicine on children undergoing trichiasis correction surgery with general anesthesia. Methods: A total of 104 children with trichiasis admitted to the hospital for correction under general anesthesia from February 2020 to July 2023 were selected as the research objects. They were randomly divided into a comparison group (52 cases) and an observation group (52 cases). The comparison group was given routine nursing after surgery, and the observation group was given special nursing after surgery. Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) scores and Wong-Baker Smiley face scale scores of the two groups of children before and after nursing were observed, and the nursing satisfaction of family members of the two groups was evaluated. Results: The anesthesia waking time, operation time, eating time and drinking time of the two groups in the observation group were lower than those in the comparison group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < .05). After nursing, the HAMA and HAMD scores of the two groups decreased, and the HAMA and HAMD scores of the two groups in the observation group were lower than those in the comparison group (P < .05). After nursing, the pain scores of the two groups were decreased, and the pain scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P < .05). The visual acuity of the observation group was significantly better than that of the comparison group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < .05). The total satisfaction rate of the observation group was 94.23%, and that of the comparison group was 80.77%, and the total satisfaction rate of the observation group was higher than that of the comparison group (P < .05). The compliance of the observation group was 96.15%, and that of the comparison group was 84.62%, and the compliance of the observation group was higher than that of the comparison group (P < .05). Within 24h after the operation, the incidence of hunger, thirst, abdominal distension, fever, and irritable crying in the observation group was significantly lower than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < .05). Conclusion: The application of traditional Chinese medicine-based nursing interventions can effectively alleviate negative emotions, alleviate pain, and enhance the satisfaction of family members towards nursing care for children undergoing trichiasis correction surgery under general anesthesia.
ABSTRACT
Recently, the function of nanofiber membranes prepared from electrospinning in accelerating wound healing has attracted wide attention. In this study, novel nanofiber membranes consisted of cellulose acetate (CA) and zein were fabricated to provide efficient delivery vehicles for sesamol, and then the effect of sesamol-loaded composite nanofiber membranes on the wound healing of diabetic mice was studied. It was found the critical concentration of CA was between 15% and 25% (w/v), and the most suitable concentration of stabilizing fibers was 22.5%. When the CA/zein ratio was 12:8, the fiber obtained small diameter and uniform distribution, stable intermolecular structure, low infiltration speed and high stability in water. The composite nanofiber membrane with high-dose sesamol (5% of total polymer concentration, w/w) promoted formation of myofibroblasts by enhancing TGF-ß signaling pathway transduction, and promoted keratinocyte growth by inhibiting chronic inflammation in wounds, thus enhancing wound healing in diabetic mice. This study can further broaden the application range of sesamol, CA and zein, and provide reference for the design and development of new wound dressings in the future.
