the purpose of this study was to explore the effect of “modular” nursing intervention on Ranoxifene in the treatment of patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis. A total of 108 patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis who were accepted by the Department of Orthopaedics in our hospital were selected as the research objects. According to the random number table method and they were divided into two groups (the intervention group and the control group), 54 cases in each group. The control group was given routine care, while the other was given “modular” interventional care. The patient satisfaction, adverse mood changes and quality of life changes in the two groups was observed in the treatment. The results of this study showed that the nursing satisfaction of the patients in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group; however, the negative emotion of the two groups of patients after care were lower than that before the care, and the degree of reduction in the intervention group was significantly higher than that of the control group; the life quality of patient in the two groups was improved than before nursing, and the degree of improvement in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group. Therefore, the clinical application of Raloxifene in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis patients with “modular” nursing intervention can improve patient satisfaction, relieve negative emotions, and improve quality of life.

Objective. The purpose was to explore the clinical effect of Danqi Buxin decoction on chronic heart failure (CHF) with yang deficiency and its effect on cardiac function and life quality of patients. Methods. 106 CHF patients with yang deficiency treated in Jinan Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February 2019 to February 2020 were selected as the research objects and divided into the treatment group and reference group according to the odd and even admission numbers, with 53 cases in each group. The reference group was treated with routine antiheart failure drugs, while the treatment group was additionally treated with Danqi Buxin decoction to compare the clinical effect and cardiac function changes between the two groups. Results. The clinical effective rate in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the reference group P < 0.05 . The TCM symptom scores at T1, T2, and T3 in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the reference group P < 0.05 . After treatment, the LVEDV levels in both groups were significantly higher than those before treatment, while the BNP levels were significantly lower than those before treatment P < 0.001 . The LVEDV level in the treatment group after treatment was higher than that in the reference group, while the BNP level in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the reference group P < 0.001 . The life quality scores in the treatment group after treatment were significantly higher than those in the reference group P < 0.05 . Conclusion. Danqi Buxin decoction on the basis of conventional drugs can significantly improve the cardiac function and life quality of CHF patients with yang deficiency type. Its further research is helpful to establish a good treatment plan for CHF patients.

Abstract Purpose Less than 10% of heart failure patients in the UK participate in cardiac rehabilitation programmes. The present pilot study evaluated feasibility, acceptability and physiological effects of a novel, personalised, home-based physical activity intervention in chronic heart failure. Methods Twenty patients (68 ± 7 years old, 20% females) with stable chronic heart failure due to reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (31 ± 8 %) participated in a single-group, pilot study assessing the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week personalised home-based physical activity intervention aiming to increase daily number of steps by 2000 from baseline (Active-at-Home-HF). Patients completed cardiopulmonary exercise testing with non-invasive gas exchange and haemodynamic measurements and quality of life questionnaire pre- and post-intervention. Patients were supported weekly via telephone and average weekly step count data collected using pedometers. Results Forty-three patients were screened and 20 recruited into the study. Seventeen patients (85%) completed the intervention, and 15 (75%) achieved the target step count. Average step count per day increased significantly from baseline to 3 weeks by 2546 (5108 ± 3064 to 7654 ± 3849, P = 0.03, n = 17) and was maintained until week 12 (9022 ± 3942). Following completion of the intervention, no adverse events were recorded and quality of life improved by 4 points (26 ± 18 vs. 22 ± 19). Peak exercise stroke volume increased by 19% (127 ± 34 vs. 151 ± 34 m/beat, P = 0.05), while cardiac index increased by 12% (6.8 ± 1.5 vs. 7.6 ± 2.0 L/min/m2, P = 0.19). Workload and oxygen consumption at anaerobic threshold also increased by 16% (49 ± 16 vs. 59 ± 14 watts, P = 0.01) and 10% (11.5 ± 2.9 vs. 12.8 ± 2.2 ml/kg/min, P = 0.39). Conclusion The Active-at-Home-HF intervention is feasible, acceptable and effective for increasing physical activity in CHF. It may lead to improvements in quality of life, exercise tolerance and haemodynamic function. Trial Registration www.clinicaltrials.gov NCT0367727. Retrospectively registered on 17 September 2018.
