Impact of a Task-Grabbing System for surgical technicians on operating room efficiency.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the Task-Grabbing System on operating room efficiency. Based on the competition-driven concept of the 'Uber' app, an Task-Grabbing System was designed for task allocation and quality assessment. We implemented the Task-Grabbing System in our hospital operating room and compared the differences in consecutive operation preparation time, turnover time, and task completion time performed by surgical technicians for tasks such as patient pick-up, operating room cleaning, medical equipment recovery, three-piece set delivery, as well as blood gas analysis and intraoperative specimen submission before (October 2019) and after (December 2019) the implementation of the Task-Grabbing System.

Perceived stress, coping style and burnout of Chinese nursing students in late-stage clinical practice: A cross-sectional study.

Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the levels of stress, coping style and burnout among Chinese nursing students in late-stage clinical practice and to identify their relationships.

Background: High stress, passive coping and burnout among nursing students in late-stage clinical practice may contribute to severe psychological consequences.

Design: A descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted in November and December 2020.

The preventive and relieving effects of ginger on postoperative nausea and vomiting: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting are common uncomfortable symptoms experienced by patients. Besides drugs, non-pharmaceutical therapies such as herbal medicine therapy are available. Ginger has played a therapeutic role in patients undergoing chemotherapy and pregnant women, but results from postoperative patients are inconsistent.

Purpose: The study was conducted to explore the relationship between mobile phone addiction, work procrastination, and burnout among newly graduated nurses.

Design And Methods: A cross-sectional survey involving 220 newly graduated nurses in China was conducted from June to July 2020.

Findings: Approximately 60.

Mobile phone addiction and its association with burnout in Chinese novice nurses: A cross-sectional survey.

Aim: To explore the levels of mobile phone addiction and burnout and their relationships among novice nurses.

Design: A cross-sectional investigation design.

Methods: Questionnaires were distributed to 400 novice nurses in five public hospitals in China.

Evaluating Surgical Risk Using FMEA and MULTIMOORA Methods under a Single-Valued Trapezoidal Neutrosophic Environment.

Background: Human errors during operations may seriously threaten patient recovery and safety and affect the doctor-patient relationship. Therefore, risk evaluation of the surgical process is critical. Risk evaluation by failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) is a prospective technology that can identify and evaluate potential failure modes in the surgical process to ensure surgical quality and patient safety.

[Application of heterogeneous VIKOR method in surgical selection for a case of rectal cancer].

According to the literature and expert experience, a comprehensive index system of subjective and objective was established, including the patient's condition, the treatment information for the same kind of patients, technical level of the medical team, and the medical conditions. Secondly, in the light of the heterogeneous evaluation information, the comprehensive index weight was computed by combining subjective weight and objective entropy weight. Furthermore, the VIKOR method was applied to deal with heterogeneous evaluation information and obtain the priority of potential surgical treatments.

Cost-effectiveness comparison of routine transfusion with restrictive and liberal transfusion strategies for surgical patients in China.

Background And Objectives: A health industry standard recommending restrictive transfusion is to be in effect in China in April 2019. We aim to explore its potential economic and clinical impacts among surgical patients.

Materials And Methods: A decision tree model was applied to compare cost-effectiveness of current routine transfusion in China, a restrictive (transfusion at Hb < 8 g/dl or ischaemic symptoms) and a liberal (transfusion at Hb < 10 g/dl) strategy.

Identification of disrupted pathways associated with colon cancer based on combining protein-protein interactions and pathway data.

Objective: The objective of this paper was to identify the disrupted pathways associated with colon cancer at a network level based on protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and pathway analysis.

Materials And Methods: First of all, the Affymetrix microarray data of colon cancer, human PPIs relationships, and human pathways existed in the database were recruited and preprocessed. Second, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between colon cancer and normal controls were identified.
