Objective To investigate the status of readiness and quality for hospital discharge and its influencing factors in patients undergoing radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation. Methods A total of 151 patients undergoing radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation were collected using convenience sampling method. General data questionnaire, Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale(RHDS) and Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale (QDTS were used to conduct a questionnaire survey on the subjects. Results The total score of RHDS was(104. 43±15. 57), indicating a high level of readiness for hospital discharge. The total score of QDTS was (159. 56±17. 36), indicating a moderate-to-high level of quality assessment on hospital discharge. The quality of discharge is positively associated with readiness for hospital discharge(r＝0. 777, P＜0. 05). Age, marital status, occupational status, family income, disease occurrence, number of hospitalizations, regular hospital revisit, reduced ability of daily living, Comorbidity of other diseases and type of drug administration. Conclusion Findings of the study showed a high level of readiness and quality for hospital discharge in patients undergoing radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation. Patients’ awareness of readiness for hospital discharge is correlated with quality for hospital discharge. Medical workers should take effective intervention to improve quality of hospital discharge teaching and quality of life after hospital discharge (目的 探讨心房颤动患者射频消融术后出院准备度及出院指导的现状及其相关影响因素。方法 随机抽取2022年1月—8月在医院接受房颤射频消融术治疗的患者151例作为研究对象。采用一般资料调查问卷、出院准备度量表(RHDS)和出院指导量表(QDTS)对151例研究对象进行调查。结果 患者RHDS量表总分为(104. 43±15. 57)分, 处于较高的水平; QDTS量表得分(159. 56±17. 36)分, 处于中等水平。出院指导质量与出院准备度呈正相关(r＝0. 777, P＜0. 05)。年龄、婚姻状况、工作状态、家庭人均收入、发病情况, 疾病住院次数、定期多次复诊、生活自理能力下降、合并其他疾病与服用药物种类是影响患者出院准备度的因素。结论 心房颤动患者射频消融术后出院准备度和出院指导质量处于较高水平, 且心房颤动患者对出院准备度的感知与其获得的出院指导质量关系密切。医务人员要找寻切实可行的措施提高指导质量, 对出院指导进行有效的干预, 从而可改善患者出院后的生活质量, 进而提高患者的出院准备水平。)

In recent years, methods in removal of heavy metal pollution become increasingly an interest in research. Numerous treatment technologies have been proposed for the removal of efficient heavy metal from waters, including chemical precipitation, ion exchange, adsorption, membrane separation, electrolysis, etc. Most of them are significantly costly and incapable of removing trace heavy metals. Among all these treatment processes, adsorption is one of the most widely used and promising techniques due to its high efficiency, low cost, easy operation, eco-friendly, and the availability of sorts of adsorbents. Lately, many studies have reported that straw modified by various methods as an adsorbent show an outstanding adsorption performance for pollutants owing to its structure features and functional groups such as amino, thiol, carboxyl. However, for some heavy metal ions (As, Cr, and Se) that exist in the form of anionic metals in water, adsorbent with only one type of functional group is usually incapable of eliminating those heavy metals. It is in general difficult for most adsorbents to remove both anionic metals and cationic metals in water at the same time. To our best knowledge, there are only a few quantitative data on the amphoteric resins based on agriculture adsorbent materials that have such capacity. Often, chloroacetic acid and simple quaternary ammonium salts as functional groups are grafted directly on those adsorbents. Therefore, in this work, a novel amphoteric adsorbent with two types of pincer functional groups (a cationic compound IA and an anionic reagent IM) based on wheat straw (WS) was prepared and characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which were used to preliminarily analyze adsorption mechanism. The SEM showed that the surface of WS-IAIM was smooth, and the pore structure was compact and regular, indicating that the IA and IM groups were grafted successfully on WS after modification. FTIR showed that the active functional groups such as –COONa (1 589 cm-1 and 1 412 cm-1), C=N (1 536 cm-1) and C N (1 358 cm-¹) were found on the surfaces of WS-IAIM, indicating good adsorption potential for Pb2+ and As5+. The XPS suggested that WS-IAIM containing Pb2+ and As5+ were present in the amphoteric adsorbent after adsorption. Batch adsorption experiment results suggested that the optimized pH values for removal of Pb2+ and As5+ were 5.0 and 2.0, respectively. The data showed that adsorption isotherm fitted the Langmuir isotherm model with the maximum adsorption capacities of 180.12 mg/g for Pb2+ and 27.48 mg/g for As5+, respectively at 313 K, and adsorption kinetics were fitted well with the pseudo-second order model. Adsorption thermodynamic tests implied that the adsorption process was a spontaneous and endothermic reaction. Reusability studies confirmed that the WS-IAIM could be easily regenerated and repeatedly utilized in the wastewater treatment. Furthermore, the experimental results showed that the adsorption mechanism followed the monolayer chemical adsorption with an ion-exchange process and complexation. The adsorption capacities of adsorbent for Pb2+ and As5+ were still around 159.3 and 19.8 mg/g, respectively, after 5 times of recycle, which confirmed that the WS-IAIM could be easily regenerated and repeatedly utilized in the wastewater treatment. Therefore, we considered that WS-IAIM could be reused as a promising, effective and cheap adsorbent of Pb2+ and As5+ removal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
