RESUMEN
Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of emergency nursing interventions, specifically those based on the Pediatric Early Warning Score (PEWS), on children diagnosed with acute asthma, to promote the recovery of children with asthma and improve the quality of care for children with asthma. Methods: A total of 80 children, Acute asthma attacks under the age of 12, diagnosed with acute asthma and admitted to the Emergency Department of Hebei Children's Hospital between June 2018 and June 2019 were selected as participants for this study. They were randomly assigned to either the control group or the PEWS group. There was no significant statistical difference in age, gender, course of disease, and disease severity between the two groups of children. In the control group, children received standard emergency nursing interventions, while in the PEWS group, children received emergency nursing interventions based on the Pediatric Early Warning Score (PEWS). To evaluate the effectiveness of these interventions, several outcome measures were compared between the two groups. This included assessing the duration for symptoms to disappear, analyzing pulmonary function indicators and respiratory dynamics indicators, measuring scores from the Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ), and evaluating nursing satisfaction. Results: Following the implementation of the nursing interventions, 1. The average cough disappearance time of children in the PEWS group was 1.97 days shorter than that in the control group, the average wheezing disappearance time was 0.97 days shorter, the average dyspnea disappearance time was 0.64 days shorter, and the average lung wheezing disappearance time was 1.19 days shorter, which indicated that emergency care based on PEWS shortened the duration of symptoms in children with asthma. 2. The average FEV1 of children in the PEWS group was 9.87% higher than the control group, the average FVC was 0.62L higher, the average PEF was 9.84% higher, the average V70 was 0.91% higher, the average V50 was 0.43% higher , and the average V25 was 0.37% higher, when compared with control group. These results indicates that emergency care based on PEWS enhances the lung function of children with asthma. 3. The average respiratory rate of children in the PEWS group was 8.05 times/min lower, and the average dynamic respiratory system compliance was 6.91 mL/cmH2O higher, than that in the control group, which indicated that emergency care based on PEWS improved respiratory dynamics indicators in children with asthma. 4. The average PAQLQ symptom dimension score of children in the PEWS group was 0.84 points higher, the average activity dimension score was 0.34 points higher, and the average emotional dimension score was 0.47 points higher when compared with the control group. This indicated that emergency care based on PEWS improves the quality of life of children with asthma. 5. The nursing satisfaction of children in the PEWS group was 95%, higher than 72.5% in the control group, indicating that emergency care based on PEWS improved the satisfaction of asthma children with the nursing process. Conclusion: The implementation of PEWS based emergency care in pediatric asthma patients has important clinical significance in promoting recovery and improving the quality of care for asthma patients. The implementation of emergency nursing interventions based on the Pediatric Early Warning Score (PEWS) for children with acute asthma has been found to be effective in promoting the recovery of their condition, enhancing their quality of life, and improving nursing satisfaction.
RESUMEN
Protein-polysaccharide interactions are crucial for food system structure and stability. This study investigates the interaction of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) at 0-2.00 % concentrations with whey protein isolate (WPI), focusing on functionality and structural changes. LBP covalently grafted onto WPI, as confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), forming WPI-LBP complexes with a maximum degree of grafting (DG) of 44.58 % at 2.00 % LBP. This grafting reduced WPI's surface hydrophobicity (H0) and improved solubility, emulsifying properties, and digestibility under certain conditions, with optimal antioxidant activity at 1.00 % LBP. Multispectral analysis and microscopy showed LBP grafting alters WPI's secondary, tertiary, crystalline, and micro/nanostructures. The comprehensive analysis indicates that the interaction between LBP and WPI involves covalent bonding, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, and electrostatic forces, as supported by zeta potential and chemical forces results. These findings suggest LBP-protein complexes as promising food materials for enhancing functionality and stability in the food industry.
