Rehabilitation therapy combined with nursing intervention in postoperative recovery of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage was investigated. Retrospective analysis was carried out in 78 patients with severe HICH hematoma evacuation after treatment in Xuzhou No. 1 People's Hospital, Xuzhou Municipal Hospital Affiliated to Xuzhou Medical University from March 2014 to July 2017. The 28 patients who received routine treatment and nursing care were regarded as the control group, the 27 patients who underwent rehabilitation training based with routine treatment and nursing care were the rehabilitation training group. ⋯ In the control group, the number of patients with shoulder-hand syndrome, hemorrhoids, and depression was significantly higher than both the rehabilitation training group and the nursing intervention group (P<0.050). The number of people with depression in the rehabilitation training group was significantly higher than the nursing intervention group (P<0.050). Rehabilitation therapy and nursing intervention are better than routine treatment and nursing for postoperative recovery of HICH patients, and has a lower adverse reaction rates after surgery, it is worthy of promotion clinically.

Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a major peri-operative complication. It has numerous adverse consequences that seriously affect the post-operative recovery of patients. The aim of the present study was to investigate the efficacy of intravenous lidocaine in improving PONV and recovery after laparoscopic gynaecological surgery. ⋯ At 6 h after surgery, the incidence of PONV was significantly lower in Group L vs. that in Group C (P<0.05). The QoR-40 score in Group C was significantly lower at 1 and 3 days after the operation compared with that in Group C (P<0.05). In conclusion, intravenous lidocaine administered to patients undergoing laparoscopic gynaecological surgery may reduce PONV and supports their early recovery [trial registration number in Chinese Clinical Trial Registry: ChiCTR-IOR-17010782 (March 5, 2017)].

This study evaluated endothelial cell-specific molecule1 (endocan), von Willebrand factor (vWF), and A disintegrin-like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 motif (ADAMTS-13), alone or in combination, in the risk stratification and prognosis prediction of patients with sepsis. Clinical data of 301 patients were prospectively analyzed, and divided into systemic inflammatory reaction syndrome, sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock groups. A total of 40 healthy individuals were studied as the control group. ⋯ Moreover, the combination of vWF/ADAMTS-13 ratio with MEDS score improved the accuracy in predicting the 28-day mortality from sepsis. On day 5, endocan, vWF, ADAMTS-13, and vWF/ADAMTS-13 ratio were independent predictors for the 28-day mortality from sepsis, while the combined use of endocan and vWF/ADAMTS-13 ratio improved the prognostic value of individual indicators. Endocan, vWF, ADAMTS-13, and vWF/ADAMTS-13 ratio are valuable in the risk stratification and prognostic evaluation of sepsis as novel biomarkers.
