RESUMEN
Based on the ultrasonic imaging and endoscopic resection of the intelligent segmentation algorithm, this study is aimed at exploring whether nursing intervention can promote the good recovery of patients with colon polyps, hoping to find a new method for clinical treatment of the colon polyps. Patients with colon polyps were divided into an experimental group (fine nursing) and a control group (general nursing). The colonoscopy polyp ultrasound image was preprocessing to select the seed points and background points. The random walk decomposition algorithm was applied to calculate the probability of each marked point, and then, the marked image was outputted. The accuracy of the intelligent segmentation algorithm was 81%. The incidence of complications in the experimental group was 4.83%, which was lower than 16.66% in the control group, and the difference was statistically obvious (P < 0.05). Perioperative refined nursing intervention for colon polyp patients undergoing endoscopic electrosurgical resection can decrease postoperative adverse reactions; reduce postoperative mucosal perforation, blood in the stool, abdominal pain, and small bleeding; lower the incidence of postoperative complications; and allow patients to recover quickly, enhancing the life comfort of patient.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To identify factors associated with the increased bleeding in patients during the postoperative period after cardiac surgery. BACKGROUND: Bleeding is among the most frequent complications that occur in the postoperative period after cardiac surgery, representing one of the major factors in morbidity and mortality. Understanding the factors associated with the increased bleeding may allow nurses to anticipate and prioritise care, thus reducing the mortality associated with this complication. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. METHODS: Adult patients in a cardiac hospital who were in the postoperative period following cardiac surgery were included. Factors associated with the increased bleeding were investigated by means of linear regression, considering time intervals of 6 and 12 hr. RESULTS: The sample comprised 391 participants. The factors associated with the increased bleeding in the first 6 hr were male sex, body mass index, cardiopulmonary bypass duration, anoxia duration, metabolic acidosis, higher heart rate, platelets and the activated partial thromboplastin time in the postoperative period. Predictors in the first 12 hr were body mass index, cardiopulmonary bypass duration, metabolic acidosis, higher heart rate, platelets and the activated partial thromboplastin time in the postoperative. CONCLUSIONS: This study identified factors associated with the increased postoperative bleeding from cardiac surgery that have not been reported in previous studies. The nurse is important in the vigilance, evaluation and registry of chest tube drainage and modifiable factors associated with the increased bleeding, such as metabolic acidosis and postoperative heart rate, and in discussions with the multiprofessional team. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Knowledge of the factors associated with the increased bleeding is critical for nurses so they can provide prophylactic interventions and early postoperative treatment when needed.

BACKGROUND: Increased blood loss after cardiac surgery is a risk factor for patient morbidity and mortality. Guidelines for postoperative haemodynamics management recommend normotensive blood pressure to avoid increased chest drain volumes. The aim of this study was to verify the correlation of early postoperative hypertension and blood loss in patients after cardiac surgery during the early postoperative period. METHODS: Postoperative mean blood pressure values and chest drain volumes of 431 patients were registered by an intensive care monitoring system during first 60minutes after intensive care admission. Correlation between blood pressure and blood loss was calculated by linear regression analysis. RESULTS: In the entire patient cohort and in various subgroup analyses (body-mass-index, type of surgery, comorbidity, emergency surgery, preoperative anticoagulation therapy) no association between early mean blood pressure >80mmHg and increased blood loss was evident in simple regression analysis. Merely, after aortic surgery a correlation of hypertension and blood loss was found. Multiple regression revealed postoperative INR values >1.5 and thrombocyte counts <100.000/nL to impact blood loss in contrast to postoperative hypertension. CONCLUSION: Evidence for strict blood pressure management to reduce blood loss after cardiac surgery is scarce. Instead, in face of higher INR and low thrombocytes increasing postoperative blood loss, achieving and maintaining a physiological coagulation is essential.

OBJECTIVE: Placement of vaginal packing after pelvic reconstructive surgery is common; however, little evidence exists to support the practice. Furthermore, patients have reported discomfort from the packs. We describe pain and satisfaction in women treated with and without vaginal packing. METHODS: This institutional review board-approved randomized-controlled trial enrolled patients undergoing vaginal hysterectomy with prolapse repairs. The primary outcome was visual analog scales (VASs) for pain on postoperative day 1. Allocation to "packing" ("P") or "no-packing" ("NP") arms occurred intraoperatively at the end of surgery. Visual analog scales regarding pain and satisfaction were completed early on postoperative day 1 before packing removal. Visual analog scale scores for pain, satisfaction, and bother attributable to packing were recorded before discharge. All packing and perineal pads were weighed to calculate a "postoperative vaginal blood loss." Perioperative data were collected from the hospital record. Our sample size estimation required 74 subjects. RESULTS: Ninety-three women were enrolled. After exclusions, 77 were randomized (P, 37; NP, 40). No differences were found in surgical information, hemoglobin levels, or narcotic use between groups. However, "postoperative vaginal blood loss" was greater in packed subjects (P < 0.001). Visual analog scale scores for pain before removal of packing (P, 41.6 vs NP, 46.3; P = 0.43] and before discharge (P, 35.0 vs NP, 40.0; P = 0.43] were not significantly different between treatment arms. Likewise, VAS scores for satisfaction before removal of packing (P, 81.0 vs NP, 90.0; P = 0.08] and before discharge (P, 90.0 vs NP, 90.5; P = 0.60] were not significantly different. Packed patients noted lower nursing verbal pain scores (P = 0.04) and used less ketorolac (P = 0.01). Bother from packing was low overall. CONCLUSIONS: Although there was no difference based on VAS, women receiving vaginal packing had lower nursing documented pain and used less ketorolac than packed women. Vaginal packing may provide benefit and can remain part of the surgical practice.

Tonsillectomy and adenotomy are the most common pediatric surgical procedures, with approximately five millions performed each year worldwide (O'Mathúna, Wiffen & Conlon, 2010). However, this procedure is accompanied by significant postoperative morbidity, which may include postoperative pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), poor oral intake with consequent dehydration and postoperative bleeding (Hanasono et al., 2004). If pain is not treated effectively, it can cause avoidance behaviors related to further healthcare. Inadequate pain management has been found to increase morbidity and mortality rates in postoperative patients of all ages (O'Mathúna, Wiffen & Conlon, 2010). In addition, there is an increase in the incidence of PONV: 40% in children with pain compared to 16% in children without pain. PONV also disturbs significantly the wellbeing and patient satisfaction, it can lead to a substantial prolongation of time in the recovery room with increased costs of personal care. In pediatric patients PONV is the most common cause of the approximately 1% to 2% of unplanned hospitalizations following outpatient surgery (Rüsch et al., 2010). The incidence of bleeding after tonsillectomy is approximately 0.5-10%, with deaths occurring in 1 in 20,000 patients (Kim et al., 2011). In recent years, several scientists have explored the effect ofcorticosteroids in the reduction of morbidity after tonsillectomy. In this publication, the question is addressed to what extent perioperatively administered corticosteroids can reduce pain, PONV and postoperative bleeding in the context of tonsillectomy in children and adolescents. For this purpose, a narrative literature analysis of the electronic databases and journals was conducted. There is evidence that corticosteroids can reduce postoperative morbidity. However, no evident and clear recommendation can be drawn from the advices of the various studies.

In most medical specialties, after surgery, it is usual to place a drain at the operative site level, in order to assist the blood flow-out if necessary. This drainage allows avoiding the formation of hematomas and contributes to tissues recovery. However, postoperative blood loss can lead to serious consequences. Also, it is necessary to continuously check the blood output volume in order to be able to intervene quickly in case of too significant losses. In daily clinical practice, this task is due to the nursing staff that periodically records the blood level inside the supple bag connected to the drain. However, this method is not accurate about the volume of lost blood and does not reflect the flow of losses which is an important parameter regarding the evolution of the patient setting. We have designed and developed a prototype of a blood loss monitoring device based on the continuous weight measurement of the blood bag connected to the drain. This device is fixed on the bed and is able to instantaneously alert the medical staff in case of abnormal blood flow-out.

BACKGROUND: Incidence of vascular complications (VCs) after sheath removal following a percutaneous coronary intervention procedure (PCIP) vary widely by the compression method used to achieve femoral artery hemostasis. OBJECTIVE: To determine if one groin compression method causes the least discomfort and distress for patients and results in fewer VCs. METHODS: Patients (n = 306, mean age = 62.3 years, 77% male, 96.4% Caucasian) undergoing PCIPs at a tertiary care center in the urban Midwest participated in this three-group experimental design study. They were randomly assigned to Femostop, C-clamp, or manual compression and rated level of groin discomfort and distress on a 0-10 Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) prior to, during, and after arterial compression was released. The groin area was assessed for any VCs (oozing, ecchymosis, hematoma) prior to sheath removal, after compression released, and 12 and 24 hr after sheath removal. RESULTS: No significant differences were found by compression method for discomfort, distress, or VCs. Regardless of method, not having a VC prior to femoral sheath removal contributes to less oozing (z = -3.1, p = .0019), hematoma (z = -9.4, p < .0001), and ecchymosis(z = -10.1, p < .0001). C-clamp contributes to less oozing when hemostasis time is < 30 min (z = -2.2, p = .03), and Femostop is superior when time to hemostasis is >30 min (z = -2.3, p = .02). Not receiving eptifibatide (Integrilin) contributes to less ecchymosis (z = -2.9, p = .004). CONCLUSIONS: Nurses need to be vigilant when caring for patients who have a VC prior to femoral sheath removal and have received antiplatelet medications. Further research is needed to identify patient characteristics that may contribute to VCs.

Assessment and management of stoma complications are often the responsibility of nurses across the continuum of care. These complications can occur at different times based on their etiology - immediately postoperatively or even several years after surgery - and often require modifications in a person's daily stoma management. This article presents a conceptual framework to help categorize types of stoma complications based on either etiology or location and offers management options to facilitate quality care. The five major categories of complications include Poor Siting, Stoma Proper, Peri-Intestinal Area, Mucocutaneous Junction, and Iatrogenic. Most of these suggested approaches to care are the recommendations of certified ostomy nurses based on their educational training, expert opinion, and successful experiences. Although these recommendations have often solved the specific problems and greatly improved the quality of life for the person with stomal complications, much research is still needed to confirm and/or improve these nursing approaches.

Postoperative nursing management of cardiac surgery patients is considered part of perianesthesia nursing core curriculum by ASPAN. In many hospitals, however, these patients bypass the PACU and are admitted directly to the ICU. For that reason, perianesthesia nurses who do not have cardiothoracic surgical ICU experience need information related to the immediate postoperative routine and nursing care regimen of cardiac surgery patients. Bleeding, cardiac tamponade, low cardiac output syndrome, and dysrhythmias are postoperative complications that are discussed. A brief overview of postoperative nursing management and several "nursing pearls of wisdom" are also presented.

Para prevenir los problemas y complicaciones que suelen sufrir los pacientes intervenidos quirúrgicamente es fundamental utilizar un plan de cuidados genérico estandarizado debido a la dimensión preventiva que adquiere así la actuación de enfermería. Para que este plan de cuidados proporcione mayor efectividad debe contarse con intervenciones de enfermería estandarizadas como las que aporta la Clasificación de Intervenciones de Enfermería (CIE), ya que de este modo se fomenta un lenguaje común entre los profesionales, dando continuidad a los cuidados, y facilitando la elección de las intervenciones adecuadas para cada problema. Este trabajo establece los diagnósticos de enfermería más frecuentes en el paciente postquirúrgico y adapta las actuaciones de enfermería a la CIE (AU)
