Determining needs for nonmedical support during cancer care.

82 Background: The need for supportive care services during cancer treatment appears obvious but ranges from 7 to 100% are reported. (McMurray 2001) (Soothill K, 2001). The Commission on Cancer (CoC) requires programs to assess these needs. We report on the rates of identified needs and our survey methodology. Methods: VICC members developed a 41 element survey to assess financial, emotional, and educational needs. Surveys were made available to patients with instructions, but no facilitators (Method 1). Then the same surveys were personally given to patients by two trained research coordinators who randomly selected, instructed and helped patients to complete the survey (Method 2). We report the responses using the two study methodologies. The difference between the two studies was examined using the two-sided chi-square test. Results: Results are presented in Table below. Conclusions: The rate of self-reported need for supportive and educational services in our study was small, but a meaningful minority of patients require assistance with supportive care. Simple unsupervised surveys led to results which were very similar to those supported by more complex and expensive methodologies. These data will inform the design of future survey methodology as well as intervention targets for patient navigators. [Table: see text]

Abstract ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the necessity of Western blotting (WB) in samples with inconsistent results in detecting anti-treponema pallidum (TP) antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Treponema pallidum granule agglutination assay (TPPA). MethodsSpecific anti-TP test results in our clinical laboratory were retrospectively analyzed. The specimens with a positive or a negative result, but with colored ELISA plates, were retested by TPPA. WB was used to confirm the suspicious results between ELISA and TPPA. The chi-square test was used to analyze whether the difference was statistically significant. ResultsA total of 106,757 anti-TP specimens were screened by ELISA from August 2018 to December 2019; 3972 were retested by TPPA, and 3809 were positive by TPPA. ELISA and TPPA showed different results in 163 specimens. Among them, 29 specimens were negative and 134 were positive by ELISA; 76 were negative, 23 were positive, and 64 were “reserve” by TPPA; 93 were negative, 31 were positive, and 39 were suspicious by the WB confirmation test. Compared with WB, the difference in the results of ELISA and TPPA was statistically significant. ConclusionsTPPA is an effective retest method for anti-TP antibody detection. If the results of anti-TP antibodies by ELISA and TPPA are inconsistent, it is necessary to use WB for confirmation.

Labor Length

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Prolonged labor leads to increase of cesarean deliveries, reduction of fetal heart rate, and maternal as well as infantile complications. Therefore, many women tend to use pharmacological or non-pharmacological methods for reduction of labor length. The present study aimed to compare the effects of maternal supportive care and acupressure (at BL32 acupoint) on labor length and infant’s Apgar score. METHODS: In this clinical trial, 150 women with low-risk pregnancy were randomly divided into supportive care, acupressure, and control groups each containing 50 subjects. The data were collected using a questionnaire including demographic and pregnancy characteristics. Then, the data were analyzed using Chi-square test and one-way ANOVA. RESULTS: The mean length of the first and second stages of labor was respectively 157.0+29.5 and 58.9+25.8 minutes in the supportive care group, 161.7+37.3 and 56.1+31.4 minutes in the acupressure group, ad 281.0+79.8 and 128.4+44.9 minutes in the control group. The difference between the length of labor stages was significant in the three study groups (P<0.001). Moreover, the frequency of Apgar score>8 in the first and 5th minutes was higher in the supportive care and acupressure groups compared to the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Continuous support and acupressure could reduce the length of labor stages and increase the infants’ Apgar scores. Therefore, these methods, as effective non-pharmacological strategies, can be introduced to the medical staff to improve the delivery outcomes.
