ObjectiveTo investigate multidisciplinary collaborative role in the treatment of patients with lower extremity degloving injury. MethodsThe wound therapy group and the Department of Orthopedics, Nutrition, and Psychology, and the Pain Clinic and Rehabilitation team collaboratively carried out the comprehensive intervention for a patient with lower extremity degloving injury in March 2013 in our hospital. The wound therapist was responsible for correct evaluation, debridement, infection control, maintaining moisture balance, and protecting wound edges of the skin; The wound team members were responsible for the entire treatment and healing process in the form of text and photos; Department of Orthopedics was responsible for secondary skin graft; Nutrition division was responsible for the correction of anemia in patients with hypoalbuminemia; Psychological service was responsible for psychological counseling as treatment accident sometimes brought psychological trauma; Pain outpatient service was responsible for consultation, formulating specific plans to control and relieve the patient's pain, and promote the patient's physical and mental rehabilitation process; Rehabilitation division was responsible for the guidance of patients on lower limb function exercise, prevention of knee joint rigidity, muscle stiffness, to promote the functional recovery of lower limbs. ResultsThe patient's wound was healed completely without scar or joint contracture. Function of lower limbs recovered to normal. Patients was very satisfied to the treatment, and had a total full recovery of body and mind, and returned to the family and society. ConclusionMultidisciplinary collaboration treatment for patients with lower extremity degloving injury can ease pain, eliminate psychological barriers, promote wound healing, and maintain the limb function.
The annual incidence of diabetic foot ulcers in China is as high as 8.1%, which ranks first among the causes of chronic wounds in China. Although through the efforts of several generations of podiatrists and the building of multidisciplinary collaboration team, the major amputation rate in patients with diabetic foot ulcers in China has been decreased significantly, it is still far higher than the level of developed countries in Europe and the United States. Therefore, in order to cope with the increasing occurrence and recurrence of refractory diabetic foot ulcers, in addition to further optimizing the construction of multidisciplinary collaboration team, it is an urgent topic for us to explore the construction of a multidisciplinary integrated team to seamlessly connect the diagnosis and treatment of different aspects of foot disease. This article describes the importance and necessity of building a wound repair center with Chinese characteristics, which is a model of multidisciplinary integrated team, aiming at provide a theoretical basis for establishing a multidisciplinary integrated management model and realizing seamless connection between diagnosis and treatment, so as to further improve the cure rate of diabetic foot ulcers.
Objective To investigate the application effect of ndividualized dietary care based on a multidisciplinary collaboration model on glycemic control, neurological recovery, dietary self-management, and satisfaction in stroke patients with abnormal blood glucose. Methods Patients with stroke and abnormal blood glucose admitted to the Department of Neurology, Shangjin Hospital, West China Hospital, Sichuan University between March and October 2024 were enrolled. Using SPSS 26.0 software, a random allocation sequence was generated to divide participants into an observation group and a control group. The control group received comprehensive nursing interventions, while the observation group received additional multidisciplinary collaboration model based individualized dietary care. Both groups were intervened until discharge. Glycemic indicators [glycated albumin (GA), fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPG)], neurological recovery, dietary adherence, and patient satisfaction were compared pre-intervention and post-intervention (at discharge). Results A total of 112 patients were included, with 56 patients in each group. At the post-intervention stage, GA, FBG and 2hPG in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05), and the scores of the Dietary Compliance Scale for Type 2 Diabetes were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Except for admission (3.27±0.86 vs. 3.25±0.90, P＞0.05), the modified Rankin Scale scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group at discharge (3.14±0.86 vs. 3.17±0.86), 30-days follow-up (2.93±0.76 vs. 3.02±0.84), and 90-days follow-up (1.05±0.80 vs.1.43±1.01) (P<0.05). The comparison results within the group showed that, there were significant differences in GA, FBG, 2hPG, modified Rankin Scale scores and Dietary Compliance Scale for Type 2 Diabetes between admission and discharge (P<0.05). The satisfaction rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (97.78% vs. 86.76%; χ2=3.877, P=0.049). Conclusions Multidisciplinary collaboration model based individualized dietary care improves short-term glycemic control, promotes long-term neurological recovery, enhances dietary adherence, and increases patient satisfaction in stroke patients with abnormal blood glucose, demonstrating clinical value for widespread application.
