ICU-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) refers to a group of syndromes with systemic and symmetrical muscle weakness during the intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization and cannot be explained by the patient's own disease, which often involve diaphragm and skeletal muscle, resulting in difficulty in weaning and nosocomial infection. The incidence of ICU-AW in sepsis patients is over 50%, making it an important factor affecting the prognosis of these patients. The occurrence of sepsis ICU-AW is related to many factors, which can be summarized into two categories, including sepsis-related factors such as sepsis-associated inflammatory response, sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE), and treatment-related factors such as physical immobilization and insufficient nutritional support. The current ICU-AW risk assessment tools are mainly on subjective assessment scales, but there are some limitations in clinical application, and objective assessment tools including predictive model and imaging assessment, which are still in the research stage. \"ABCDEF bundle strategy\" is an important measure to prevent ICU-AW, in which early rehabilitation is the core element.

Timely and effective on-site management is critical for improving patient survival and prognosis. Rapid recognition, rapid assessment, and rapid cooling are the cornerstones of pre-hospital care. However, the absence of a standardized protocol for pre-hospital management of heatstroke has impeded the efficacy of treatment. This consensus, initiated by the Expert Group on Heatstroke Prevention of the People's Liberation Army, signifies a collaborative endeavor involving emergency medical personnel, nurses, and administrators from pre-hospital care, emergency departments, and intensive care units in both military and civilian domains. By systematically reviewing evidence-based medicine and clinical expertise in heatstroke prevention, on-site and in-transit care, as well as early treatment in emergency settings, the group has formulated the Expert consensus on pre-hospital emergency management of heatstroke (2024) after extensive discussions and iterative recommendations, which serve as a scientific and standardized framework for pre-hospital heatstroke emergency care. The consensus underscores the pivotal role of enhancing public awareness regarding heatstroke prevention and augmenting the rates of rapid recognition and rapid cooling for effective on-site heatstroke management. In high-risk industries, regions, or seasons for heatstroke, developing scientifically sound plans and conducting practical training can provide effective safety measures. Emergency personnel should undergo specialized training and assessments in knowledge and skills, ambulances should be equipped with effective cooling devices, and hospitals must maintain comprehensive emergency response capabilities. It is recommended to establish a regional heatstroke treatment network to optimize the allocation of emergency resources and streamline processes, thereby improving treatment outcomes and response times.</p>","PeriodicalId":24079,"journal":{"name":"Zhonghua wei zhong bing ji jiu yi xue","volume":"37 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143449998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The annual number of applications increased from 296 in 2010 to 1 971 in 2024, representing an average annual growth rate of 40.42%. Similarly, the number of funded projects grew from 45 in 2010 to 175 in 2024, with an average annual growth rate of 20.63%, while annual funding rose from 20.01 million RMB in 2010 to 74.20 million RMB in 2024, reflecting an average annual growth rate of 19.34%. The majority of funded projects belonged to the General Program (774 projects), Young Scientists Fund (754 projects), and Regional Science Fund (163 projects), collectively accounting for 94.95% of total funded projects (1 691/1 781).

The baseline clinical features, laboratory examination indicators, echocardiography results, coronary angiography and intervention treatment characteristics, and antiplatelet treatment status of patients were collected. The study endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), including all-cause mortality, target vessel revascularization (TVR), myocardial infarction, and recurrent stent thrombosis (RST). Patients were divided into MACE group and non-MACE group based on the occurrence of MACE. Cox regression analysis was used to determine the univariate and multivariate predictive factors for MACE occurrence in STEMI patients caused by LST and VLST during long-term follow-up after PCI. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted to analyze the cumulative survival rate without MACE during follow-up in subgroups of patients with different levels of fibrinogen (Fib) and initial number of stents. The incidence of MACE among patients receiving different drug-eluting stent (DES) treatments was compared.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 418 patients diagnosed STEMI caused by LST and VLST through coronary angiography were enrolled, of which 115 had MACE and 303 did not.

The study variables encompassed patient demographic characteristics (gender, age, occupation, residence, etc.), and injury characteristics (date and location of injury, type of animal inflicting the injury, level of exposure, wound site, number of wounds, vaccination history, etc.). Descriptive statistics and univariate analysis were performed on the collected data.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;From October 8, 2022, to October 30, 2023, a total of 1 266 cases of animal bites were attended to in our hospital's emergency department. A distinct seasonal pattern was observed in the monthly distribution of animal bite patients, with a consistent presence throughout the year and notable fluctuations. There was a higher incidence during the summer and autumn (July to October), and a lower incidence during the winter and spring (December to the following March), marking a relatively quiescent period. The study included 680 female cases (53.7%) and 586 male cases (46.3%), with a median age of 27 years (range 11 months to 88 years). The majority of patients were clerks or workers (50.2%), followed by students (21.6%), laborers (8.5%), and retirees (3.6%). The majority of patients were local residents (90.6%), and the majority had no history of rabies vaccination (76.9%), with only 3 cases (0.2%) having pre-exposure immunization. Among the four types of animal bites, cat bites predominated (64.5%), followed by dog bites (28.7%), rodent bites (4.9%), and bites from other animals (1.9%). The time from injury to consultation was 0 (0-40) days. Most patients experienced a level III exposure (76.3%), with level II exposure being less common (23.2%), and level I exposure being the least frequent (0.5%). The upper limbs were the most common site of injury (72.1%), followed by the lower limbs (21.2%), and the trunk was the least affected (2.6%). The majority of patients had a single wound (75.8%), and the majority of injuries occurred at home (90.2%). The number of patients who self-cleaned their wounds was comparable to those who sought outpatient treatment.

The study began at the time of the first diagnosis of sepsis upon EICU admission and ended upon patient death or at 28 days. The gender, age, length of stay in EICU, underlying diseases, and infection sites were recorded. Within 24 hours of sepsis diagnosis, blood culture results, white blood cell count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), blood lactate acid (Lac), HBP, Alb, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II), mortality in emergency department sepsis score (MEDS), modified early warning score (MEWS), number of organ failures, use of vasopressors, application of mechanical ventilation, renal replacement therapy, and 28-day prognosis were recorded, the differences in these indicators between two groups were compared. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to analyze the risk factors of 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis.
