Methods: Eighty-six PICC patients were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group of 43 patients each. The control group received general nursing care and the observation group received bundled nursing intervention based on the control group. The occurrence of venous thrombosis, quality of life score, Zung self-rating depression scale (SDS) score, self-rating anxiety (SAS) score, and nursing satisfaction after treatment were compared between the two groups. Results: The incidence rate of PICC-related venous thrombosis in the observation group (2/4.652%) was lower than that of the control group (13/30.231%) after nursing intervention (P < 0.05). After the intervention, the quality-of-life scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.001). After the intervention, the SDS and SAS scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P < 0.001). The nursing satisfaction rate of the observation group (41/ 4.652%) was higher than that of the control group (35/18.604%) (P < 0.05). The difference is statistically significant. Conclusion: In the care of lung cancer patients with a high risk of PICC-related thrombosis, bundled nursing care achieved better results.展开更多

At first, the equivalent theory is used to deal with BHOR, and then its global strength in manifold cases was analyzed, along with the use of a three-dimensional nonlinear time domain finite element program. So the max bending stress, max circumferential stress, and max axial stress in the BHOR bundle main section (BMS) were obtained, and the values of these three stresses in each riser were obtained through the "stress distribution method". Finally, the Max Von Mises stress in each riser was given and a check was made whether or not they met the demand. This paper provides a reference for strength analysis of the bundled hybrid offset riser and some other bundled pipelines.展开更多

文摘Healthcare downstream referral programs,where patients are transferred to a community hospital after surgical treatment in a tertiary hospital for rehabilitation treatment,have been widely advocated.However,no appropriate payment scheme aligns incentives to promote the program.This paper mainly compares two payment schemes:bundled and unbundled,which refer to packaged versus separate payments for surgery and rehabilitation treatment.By establishing a three-stage Stackelberg game within a M/Cox-2/1 queuing framework,our paper considers a payer maximizing social welfare in the base model and a payer maximizing the system's long-term surplus in the extension.The base model finds that:(i)the payer pays less under the bundled payment scheme when the potential arrival rate is low and the delay cost is high;otherwise,in most cases,the payer pays more under the bundled payment scheme.(ii)The bundled payment scheme yields greater referral volume and a higher level of effort.(iii)The bundled payment scheme is a weak Pareto improvement(PI hereafter)when both the potential arrival rate and the delay cost are high;the unbundled payment scheme is a PI when the delay cost is moderate and the potential arrival rate is relatively low;otherwise,there is no PI.However,when the payer aims to maximize the system's long-term surplus with a limited budget,several different results are obtained.These results can provide practical insights for policymakers to coordinate downstream referral programs.
文摘BACKGROUND Peripherally inserted central catheters(PICCs)are crucial for patients requiring long-term intravenous therapy,especially within digestive surgery under bundled care protocols.AIM To evaluate and compare the efficacy,safety,and patient-reported outcomes of single-lumen vs double-lumen PICCs among patients undergoing digestive surgery within a structured bundled care framework.METHODS This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from 249 patients who underwent digestive surgery and utilized either single-lumen(n=117)or double-lumen(n=132)PICCs between January 2021 and June 2024.Clinical outcomes,patient satisfaction,catheterization duration,and complication rates were compared using statistical analysis via SPSS(version 29.0).The bundled care protocol was consistently applied,focusing on standardized procedures,staff training,and patient support.RESULTS Single-lumen PICCs were associated with a significantly lower thrombosis rate(0.85%)than double-lumen PICCs(6.82%,P=0.039).The single-lumen group experienced shorter catheterization durations(12.5±3.14 days vs 13.6±4.50 days,P=0.025)and higher successful infusion rates(92.7%±5.32%vs 90.4%±6.60%,P=0.003).This group also reported higher comfort scores(8.40±1.20 vs 7.90±1.50,P=0.004)and lower pain levels(2.90±0.70 vs 3.20±0.80,P=0.002).Aside from thrombosis,complication rates showed no significant difference between the groups.CONCLUSION Within bundled care context,single-lumen PICCs demonstrated advantages in reducing thrombosis risk,procedural efficiency,patient comfort,and satisfaction compared with double-lumen PICCs.The findings underscore the importance of considering patient-specific needs and clinical scenarios in catheter choice.

文摘1 Introduction and main contributions Various power-aware solutions have been proposed to address the alarming energy waste and consequent serious environmental issues since Gupta and Singh initiated the seminal study on green networking problem in 2003.Most of the researches concentrated their efforts on power-aware networking under the non-bundled link scenarios by leveraging the dynamic power management based Low Power Idle(LPI)policy which was defined and standardized in the IEEE 802.3az standard.However,in modern backbone networks,pairs of routers are typically connected,for each traffic direction,by multiple physical links that form one logical bundled link,which is the link aggregation technique defined and standardized in IEEE 802.1AX.
文摘Background:In recent years,the prevalence of type 2 diabetes among Chinese population has been increasing by years,directly leading to an average annual growth rate of 19.90%of medical expenditure.Therefore,it is urgent to work on strategies to control the growth of medical expenditure on type 2 diabetes on the basis of the reality of China.Therefore,in this study,we explored the feasibility of implementing bundled payment in China through analyzing bundled payment standards of type 2 diabetes outpatient services.Methods:This study analyzed the outpatient expenditure on type 2 diabetes with Beijing Urban Employee's Basic Medical Insurance from 2010 to 2012.Based on the analysis of outpatient expenditure and its influential factors,we adopted decision tree approach to conduct a case-mix analysis.In the end,we built a case-mix model to calculate the standard expenditure and the upper limit of each combination.Results:We found that age,job status,and whether with complication were significant factors that influence outpatient expenditure for type 2 diabetes.Through the analysis of the decision tree,we used six variables(complication,age,diabetic foot,diabetic nephropathy,cardiac-cerebrovascular disease,and neuropathy)to group the cases,and obtained 11 case-mix groups.Conclusions:We argued that it is feasible to implement bundled payment on type 2 diabetes outpatient services.Bundled payment is effective to control the increase of outpatient expenditure.Further improvements are needed for the implementation of bundled payment reimbursement standards,together with relevant policies and measures.

文摘The Qinghai-Xizang Plateau of China faces challenges like thaw slumping,threatening slope stability and infrastructure.Understanding the mechanical properties of the roots of the dominant herbaceous plant species in the alpine meadow layer of the permafrost regions on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau is essential for evaluating their role in enhancing soil shear strength and mitigating slope deformation in these fragile environments.In this study,the roots of four dominant herbaceous plant species—Kobresia pygmaea,Kobresia humilis,Carex moorcroftii,and Leontopodium pusillum—that are widely distributed in the permafrost regions of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau were explored to determine their mechanical properties and effects in enhancing soil shear strength.Through indoor single root tensile and root group tensile tests,we determined the root diameter,tensile force,tensile strength,tensile ratio,and strength frequency distributions.We also evaluated their contributions to inhibiting slope deformation and failure during the formation and development of thermal thaw slumps in the alpine meadow.The results showed that the distribution of the root diameter of the dominant plant species is mostly normal,while the tensile strength tends to be logarithmically normally distributed.The relationship between the root diameter and root tensile strength conforms to a power function.The theoretical tensile strength of the root group was calculated using the Wu-Waldron Model(WWM)and the Fiber Bundle Model(FBM)under the assumption that the cumulative single tensile strength of the root bundle is identical to the tensile strength of the root group in the WWM.The FBM considers three fracture modes:FBM-D(the tensile force on each single root is proportional to its diameter relative to the total sum of all the root diameters),FBM-S(the cross-sectional stress in the root bundle is uniform),and FBM-N(each tensile strength test of individual roots experiences an equal load).It was found that the model-calculated tensile strength of the root group was 162.60%higher than the test value.The model-derived tensile force of the root group from the FBM-D,FBM-S,and FBM-N was 73.10%,28.91%,and 13.47%higher than the test values,respectively.The additional cohesion of the soil provided by the roots was calculated to be 25.90-45.06 kPa using the modified WWM,67.05-38.15 kPa using the FBM-S,and 57.24-32.74 kPa using the FBM-N.These results not only provide a theoretical basis for further quantitative evaluation of the mechanical effects of the root systems of herbaceous plant species in reinforcing the surface soil but also have practical significance for the effective prevention and control of thermal thaw slumping disasters in the permafrost regions containing native alpine meadows on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau using flexible plant protection measures.

文摘Photomechanics is a crucial branch of solid mechanics.The localization of point targets constitutes a fundamental problem in optical experimental mechanics,with extensive applications in various missions of unmanned aerial vehicles.Localizing moving targets is crucial for analyzing their motion characteristics and dynamic properties.Reconstructing the trajectories of points from asynchronous cameras is a significant challenge.It encompasses two coupled sub-problems:Trajectory reconstruction and camera synchronization.Present methods typically address only one of these sub-problems individually.This paper proposes a 3D trajectory reconstruction method for point targets based on asynchronous cameras,simultaneously solving both sub-problems.Firstly,we extend the trajectory intersection method to asynchronous cameras to resolve the limitation of traditional triangulation that requires camera synchronization.Secondly,we develop models for camera temporal information and target motion,based on imaging mechanisms and target dynamics characteristics.The parameters are optimized simultaneously to achieve trajectory reconstruction without accurate time parameters.Thirdly,we optimize the camera rotations alongside the camera time information and target motion parameters,using tighter and more continuous constraints on moving points.The reconstruction accuracy is significantly improved,especially when the camera rotations are inaccurate.Finally,the simulated and real-world experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and accuracy of the proposed method.The real-world results indicate that the proposed algorithm achieved a localization error of 112.95 m at an observation distance range of 15-20 km.
文摘Objective:To explore the application effect of bundle management in the safe nursing of patients with autoimmune encephalitis.Methods:Seventy-five patients with autoimmune encephalitis who met the inclusion criteria in our hospital from January 2024 to June 2024 were randomly divided into two groups:an observation group of 39 patients and a control group of 36 patients.The control group received routine nursing care,while the observation group implemented a bundle management strategy based on routine nursing care.Safety nursing outcomes,clinical symptom improvement time,hospital stay,and neurologic function recovery were observed in both groups.Results:The incidence of adverse events in the observation group was 12.82%,significantly lower than the 33.33%in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in restraint usage and ICU transfer rates between the two groups(P>0.05).The clinical symptom improvement time,hospital stay,and neurologic function recovery in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).Conclusion:Through the bundle management model,effective connections can be ensured in various aspects of treatment and rehabilitation for patients with autoimmune encephalitis,providing patients with comprehensive and multi-level nursing services and improving their overall satisfaction and treatment effectiveness.

文摘Porous liquid-conducting micro-heat exchangers have garnered considerable attention for their role in efficient heat dissipation in small electronic devices.This demand highlights the need for advanced mathematical models to optimize the selection of mixed heat exchange media and equipment design.A capillary bundle evaporation model for porous liquid-conducting media was developed based on the conjugate mass transfer evaporation rate prediction model of a single capillary tube,supplemented by mercury injection experimental data.Theoretical and experimental comparisons were conducted using 1,2-propanediol-glycerol(PG-VG)mixtures at molar ratios of 1:9,3:7,5:5,and 7:3 at 120,150,and 180℃.The Jouyban-Acree model was implemented to enhance the evaporation rate predictions.For the 7:3 PG-VG mixture at 180℃under the experimental conditions of the thermal medium,the model's error reduced from 16.75%to 10.84%post-correction.Overall,the mean relative error decreased from 11.76%to 5.98%after correction.
