This paper aimed to explore the risk factors of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) related thrombosis (PICC-RT) in tumor patients mediated by ultrasound images under minimum variance (MV) algorithm and put forward the corresponding nursing intervention methods based on the risk factors. The smoothing algorithm, diagonal loading algorithm, and coherence factor algorithm were optimized via MV algorithm. The optimized algorithm was compared with other algorithms to analyze its image quality and image processing speed. Literature retrieval was conducted to analyze the risk factors of PICC-RT in tumor patients. Tumor patients who received PICC for chemotherapy in the hospital from June 2018 to December 2019 were selected. Patients who were accepted before the experiment were taken as the controls, and there were control group (89 cases) and observation group (91 cases). Exercise, average flow rate of axillary vein per unit time, and PICC-RT were compared between the two groups. The results showed that the optimized algorithm (MV-N) had better image resolution, image contrast, and calculation speed than other algorithms. Gender, body mass index (BMI), pathological type, clinical stage, disease history, fibrinogen (FIB), and use of anticoagulant drugs were risk factors for PICC-RT in tumor patients. The number of PICC-RT and complications in the observation group was notably lower in contrast to the control group ( P < 0.05 ). It indicated that a novel algorithm was successfully established, which could increase the ultrasonic image quality and computing speed, and upper limb exercise could reduce the incidence of PICC-RT and its complications in tumor patients.

Objective: To compare the effects of blunt separation combined with early sheath removal and conventional catheterization on the incidence of bleeding, exudation and subcutaneous congestion after peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). Methods: 250 patients with PICC catheterization in our hospital were selected, including 125 in the control group and 125 in the observation group. The conventional catheterization method was used in the control group: The sheath was removed by scalpel skin expansion and complete tube delivery in place. The observation group used blunt separation combined with early sheath removal. The success rate of one-time sheath delivery, immediate bleeding, 24-hour bleeding and exudation were compared. Results: The success rate of sheath delivery in the observation group was 100%; The amount of immediate blood loss and blood loss 24h after catheterization in observation group was obviously lower than that in the control group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). There were 6 cases of exudation in the control group and no exudation in the observation group. There was significant difference in the incidence between the two groups (P < 0.05); There were 10 cases of subcutaneous congestion in the control group and 2 cases of subcutaneous congestion in the observation group. There was significant difference in the incidence between the two groups (P < 0.05); Conclusion: Blunt separation combined with early sheath removal can reduce the occurrence of local blood and fluid leakage after PICC catheterization.

To explore the clinical value of octreotide therapy and nursing intervention in patients with acute pancreatitis. 120 patients with acute pancreatitis admitted to the Department of Digestive Medicine from June 2018 to August 2019 were selected. Two groups of patients were treated with octreotide. They were randomly divided into observation group (intensive nursing intervention) and control group (routine nursing) with 60 patients in each group. Compared with the control group (81.67%), the total effective rate (93.33%) was higher in the observation group (P<0.05%); After treatment, C reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase, WBC and hemodiastase of patients in the observation group were better than those in the control group (P<0.05); compared with the control group (18.33%), the occurrence rate of hypoglycemia in the observation group (6.67%) was lower (P<0.05%); At the same time, the Nursing Satisfaction Scale of the observation group (95.00%) was higher than that of the control group (78.33%), (P<0.05%). Patients with acute pancreatitis treated with octreotide and strengthened nursing intervention can obtain more obvious therapeutic effect, so that the clinical symptoms and related laboratory indicators of patients have been significantly improved. At the same time, the clinical value was significant with a lower occurrence rate of hypoglycemia and higher nursing satisfaction scale.

OBJECTIVE: to develop a risk score for unplanned removal of peripherally inserted central catheter in newborns.METHOD: prospective cohort study conducted in a neonatal intensive care unit with newborn babies who underwent 524 catheter insertions. The clinical characteristics of the newborn, catheter insertion and intravenous therapy were tested as risk factors for the unplanned removal of catheters using bivariate analysis. The risk score was developed using logistic regression. Accuracy was internally validated based on the area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve.RESULTS: the risk score was made up of the following risk factors: transient metabolic disorders; previous insertion of catheter; use of a polyurethane double-lumen catheter; infusion of multiple intravenous solutions through a single-lumen catheter; and tip in a noncentral position. Newborns were classified into three categories of risk of unplanned removal: low (0 to 3 points), moderate (4 to 8 points), and high (≥ 9 points). Accuracy was 0.76.CONCLUSION: the adoption of evidence-based preventative strategies based on the classification and risk factors faced by the newborn is recommended to minimize the occurrence of unplanned removals.

To study and analyze the actual clinical effect of nursing intervention in stem cell therapy for stroke patients. A total of 9 stroke patients treated with stem cell therapy in our hospital from September 2018 to September 2019 were selected as the research and analysis objects. All patients were divided into observation group 5 stroke patients and control group 4 stroke patients by random number method. Both groups of patients were treated with stem cell therapy. Patients in the control group were treated with conventional nursing methods, and patients in the observation group were treated with nursing intervention methods. The treatment compliance, psychological status, quality of life and daily living ability before and after intervention were compared between the two groups. There were no significant differences in exercise training, disease monitoring and compliance with regular life between the two groups before intervention (P > 0.05), and the patients in observation group were significantly better than those in control group after intervention (P < 0.05), with significant differences. There was no significant difference in anxiety and depression scores between the two groups before intervention (P > 0.05), and after intervention, the patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05), and the difference was statistically significant. There was no significant difference in quality of life and ability of daily living between the two groups before intervention (P > 0.05), and the patients in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group after intervention (P < 0.05), the difference was statistically significant. The application of nursing intervention in stem cell therapy for stroke patients has a significant effect, which significantly improves the patient's compliance with the treatment, alleviates the negative emotions of patients, improves the psychological status of patients, improves the quality of life and daily living ability of patients, and is worthy of popularization and application in clinical nursing.

To analyze the clinical effect of nursing cooperation in transsphenoidal approach microscopic hypophysectomy. From January 2017 to January 2020, 80 patients who underwent transsphenoidal microscopic hypophysectomy in our hospital were selected to participate in the analysis and study. They were divided into two groups according to the randomized allocation, namely the observation group and the control group. Among them, 40 patients in the observation group and 40 patients in the control group were given routine nursing care for the patients in the control group, and comprehensive nursing intervention was adopted for the patients in the observation group, and the overall nursing effect of the two groups of patients was compared. After taking different nursing methods, the condition of patients in both groups was effectively controlled, and the effective rate of patients in the observation group with comprehensive nursing intervention was significantly better than that of patients in the control group with conventional nursing methods, and the difference had certain statistical significance (P < 0.05); The satisfaction degree of patients in the study group was significantly better than that of patients in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The degree of negative emotions of patients in the study group was significantly better than that of patients in the control group after receiving comprehensive nursing intervention, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05), and the difference in the incidence of adverse events between the two groups was not statistically significant (P > 0.05); The scores of each index of SF-36 questionnaire of patients in both groups were higher than those before nursing, and the scores of each index of patients in observation group were higher than those of patients in control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P > 0.05). With adequate preoperative preparation and mastery of the use of mechanical equipment, comprehensive nursing intervention can effectively improve the treatment effect of patients, make patients more satisfied with the nursing work, and can soothe patients’ negative psychological mood, eliminate panic, improve patients' life confidence, enhance intraoperative cooperation, and ensure that the operation can be completed smoothly.

Purpose To evaluate incidence and risk factors of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC)-related complications in cancer patients. Methods A prospective, multicenter, cohort study of cancer patients with PICC insertion was performed from February 1, 2013 to April 24, 2014. All patients were monitored in clinic until PICCs were removed. The primary endpoint was PICC removal due to complications. Patient-, catheter- and insertion-related factors were analyzed in univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis to identify significant independent risk factors for PICC-related complications. Results There were 477 cancer patients included, for a total of 50,841 catheter-days. Eighty-one patients (17.0%) developed PICC-related complications, with an incidence of 1.59 per 1000 catheter days. Thirty-six (7.5%) PICCs were removed because of complications. The most common complications were skin allergy (4.6%), catheter occlusion (3.4%) and accidental withdrawal (2.3%). Nine (1.9%) patients developed symptomatic upper extremity deep venous thrombosis (UEDVT) and central line associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) was shown in six (1.3%) PICCs with an infection rate 0.12 per 1000 catheter days. In multivariable analysis, body mass index (BMI) >25 (odds ratio, 2.09; 95% confidence interval, 1.26-3.47, p = 0.004) was shown to be a significant risk factor for PICC complications. Conclusions Cancer patients with BMI greater than 25 were more likely to have PICC complications.
