Abstract:
The ultrasonic imaging research of nursing care for preventing and treating clinical infection of hemodialysis patients based on smart medical big data is studied. 100 hemodialysis patients were selected from May 2019 to May 2020. The patients were randomly divided into the observation group and routine group with 50 cases in each group. The PWV of common carotid artery was measured by ultrasonic rapid imaging technology, including BS value at the beginning of systole and ES value at the end of systole. According to the effect of preventive nursing intervention of intelligent medical treatment, the MHD group adopted preventive nursing intervention, while the routine group adopted traditional nursing service. The infection rate and quality of life score of patients in both groups were evaluated. The results showed that there were significant differences in BS and ES values between the MHD group and PWV in the normal group ( P < 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in BS value and ES value between MHD patients with plaque and those without plaque ( P > 0.05 ). It is proved that the ultrafast ultrasound imaging technology is safe, simple, noninvasive, nonradioactive, and fast and can automatically and accurately detect carotid PWV. It is expected to become a new imaging method for quantitative evaluation of arteriosclerosis degree in MHD patients. Preventive nursing intervention can reduce the incidence of infection in hemodialysis patients and improve their quality of life. Smart medical treatment has brought us a lot of convenience. As patients, we should change our concept, actively participate in it, and contribute to the development of smart medical treatment.

Abstract:
In order to investigate the value of preoperative X-ray computed tomography (CT) in predicting the pathological grade of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. This paper retrospectively analyzed the CT image examination of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, the image characteristics of G-NEC detected by CT image, and the detection of GST by spiral CT. In order to clearly diagnose and evaluate the size and scope of the focus, whether there is adjacent tissue invasion, metastasis, and treatment effect, CT, MR, PET-CT, nuclide specific imaging, and other imaging methods are widely used in the medical treatment of pNEN patients. These imaging methods have the advantages of noninvasive, rapid imaging, objective image medium, and strong repeatability. If the pathological grade of pNEN patients can be obtained by imaging examination before operation, it will be of great benefit to the formulation of treatment strategies and the prediction of clinical outcomes. Combining CT image performance with imaging omics characteristics to establish a prediction model that can develop a better auxiliary decision-making tool for clinical practice. Different pathological grades prompt clinicians to provide personalized and accurate medical treatment for patients, and reduce excessive medical treatment or wrong judgment caused by unclear preoperative diagnostic information.

Abstract:
Purpose: We investigate the diagnostic value and therapeutic effect of arthroscopy on the knee synovial fold syndrome. Methods: Thirty patients (35 knees) who has knee subgingival fold syndrome were treated with knee arthroscopy and medial temporal synovectomy. All these patients in this group were treated with epidural anesthesia and underwent arthroscopic surgery. MRI was used initially to diagnosis the orthopedic conditions before surgical intervention. At the second observation, it can be seen that the inner wrinkle is hard and it has a white cord-like shape. Generally, the wrinkled wall is fan-shaped, while some of the wrinkled walls are continuous with the upper, lower and outer wrinkles. Changes were evaluated using the Lysholm score in knee function before and after surgery. Results: The treatment is demonstrated: the preoperative average Lysholm score (51.37 ± 6.36), the average Lysholm score (93.00 ± 5.04), and the average improvement of 42 points. The difference between the preoperative and postoperative functional scores was statistically significant (t = 15.283, P < 0.05). Discussion: There are many reports on the synovial wrinkle syndrome in the knee synovial fold syndrome, and the report of the subclinical fold syndrome is extremely rare, and it is considered to be only a manifestation of other syndromes. This aspect shows that the incidence of the knee synovial fold syndrome is relatively low, on the other hand, it also shows that the current understanding of the knee synovial fold syndrome is insufficient. The knee synovial fold syndrome lesions occur mostly in young men and young adults, and are associated with trauma and excessive use of injuries, but the knee synovial fold syndrome and signs are not specific, easily misdiagnosed, and need to be diagnosed under arthroscopy. Arthroscopic treatment of the knee synovial fold syndrome is simple and safe, with less damage and quick recovery after surgery. Conclusion: Arthroscopy has obvious diagnostic value and good therapeutic effect on the knee synovial fold syndrome.

Abstract:
Objective. This research paper is based on a retrospective case-control study for exploring the effects of medical nursing integration and the continuous 4C nursing model to improve the clinical treatment and nursing quality of patients with acute stroke. Method. For this purpose, a total of 313 patients with acute stroke, treated in our hospital from February 2020 to April 2021, were enrolled. They were divided into control and study groups with an even number of patients. The control group received integrated medical care number (N = 156), while the study group received integrated medical care and a continuous 4C nursing model (N = 157). In integrated medical care, the general data, self-nursing ability, degree of neurological impairment, Fugl–Meyer Assessment (FMA) score, Barthel index score, and quality of life score were compared between the two groups. Result. The self-nursing concept, self-nursing responsibility, self-nursing skills, health knowledge, and total score of the patients in the study group were higher than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). The neurological function scores of the study group were lower than those of the control group at 1, 3, and 6 months after discharge ( P < 0.05). The scores of the study group were higher than those of the control group at 1, 3, and 6 months after discharge ( P < 0.05). The Barthel index score of the study group was higher than that of the control group at 1, 3, and 6 months after discharge. The scores of physical function, psychological function, social function, and health self-cognition in the study group were lower than those in the control group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion. The application of integrated medical care and the continuous 4C nursing model for patients with acute stroke is beneficial to enhance the degree of neurological impairment of stroke patients, improve activities of daily life and motor function, and facilitate patients’ quality of life. It is helpful to strengthen the attitude and feeling of cooperation between doctors and nurses, promote cooperation between doctors and nurses, reduce the defects of nursing work, heighten the quality of nursing, and achieve the requirement and goal of effectively promoting high-quality nursing.

Abstract:
Objective: To explore the application and analysis of image segmentation in the rehabilitation of patients with bone trauma during orthopedic nursing. Methods: Sixty patients with orthopedic trauma in our hospital were enrolled. The patients were divided into observation group and control group by four weeks. The control group was the traditional observation image, and the observation group was analyzed by image segmentation technology. Therefore, the two groups of patients are provided with nursing treatment, and finally, the progress of bone trauma recovery is periodically observed. Results: The degree of recovery in the observation group was 43% in the four-week period and 30% in the control group. It can be seen that the adaptive threshold algorithm makes orthopedic care more effective in image segmentation. Discussion: In medical imaging technology, different imaging devices can provide a variety of voxel information. The bone morphology information provided by CT images can make orthopedic care more targeted. Conclusion: Image segmentation technology provides a reliable predictive treatment solution in the nursing work, which solves the actual problem of the patient in the injury and the disease, so that the patient can recover faster. However, the expected research results of medical imaging technology research have guiding significance for the doctor's clinical diagnosis and preoperative and postoperative planning.

Abstract:
Objective. To objectively evaluate the nursing quality of patients with inguinal hernia from the aspects of postoperative pain, self-discipline, and complications, the application of medical data analysis and nursing intervention in patients with inguinal hernia was discussed. Methods. A total of 86 patients with inguinal hernia were selected, and the time distribution was from September 2020 to March 2021. The patients were divided into two groups: in the control group, there were 43 cases, 28 males and 15 females. There were 43 cases in the observation group, 25 males and 18 females. All selected subjects must sign the informed consent form and have the right to know the research content. The patients were diagnosed by abdominal ultrasound, and the demographic data and basic clinical data were recorded. Results. A total of 86 patients were divided into two groups in this study, of which 43 patients used a routine nursing path as the control group and the other 43 patients added medical data analysis and nursing intervention as the observation group on the basis of the routine nursing path. The postoperative pain, self-discipline, complications, and patient satisfaction were compared, and the patients’ satisfaction in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group, while serum swelling and urine retention were significantly lower than those in the control group ( p < 0.05 ). Conclusion. According to the analysis of the routine nursing path and medical data, nursing intervention patients have more stable emotions and less postoperative pain. They can get out of bed early, reduce the occurrence of other complications, and improve the overall curative effect. Systematic nursing intervention can reduce the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions and complications. It is one of the ideal adjuvant treatments for inguinal hernia patients.

Abstract:
With the advancement of technology, medical imaging technology has been greatly improved. This article mainly studies the nursing before and after coronary angiography in cardiovascular medicine based on medical imaging technology. This paper proposes a multimodal medical image fusion algorithm based on multiscale decomposition and convolution sparse representation. The algorithm first decomposes the preregistered source medical image by NSST, takes the subimages of different scales as training images, and optimizes the subdictionaries of different scales; then convolution and sparse the subimages on each scale encoding to obtain the sparse coefficients of different subimages; secondly, the combination of improved L1 norm and improved spatial frequency (novel sum-modified SF (NMSF)) is used for high-frequency subimage coefficients, and the fusion of low-frequency subimages improved the rule of combining the L1 norm and the regional energy; finally, the final fused image is obtained by inverse NSST of the fused low-frequency subband and high-frequency subband. Experimental analysis found that the bifurcation angle has nothing to do with the damage of the branch vessels after the main branch stent is placed. The bifurcation angle greater than 50° is an independent predictor of MACE after stent extrusion for bifurcation lesions. Experimental results show that the proposed method has good performance in contrast enhancement, detail extraction, and information retention, and it improves the quality of the fusion image.

Abstract:
Summary Objectives: To introduce and evaluate a process for refinement of software quality that is suitable to research groups. In order to avoid constraining researchers too much, the quality improvement process has to be designed carefully. The scope of this paper is to present and evaluate a process to advance quality aspects of existing research prototypes in order to make them ready for initial clinical studies. The proposed process is tailored for research environments and therefore more lightweight than traditional quality management processes. Methods: Focus on quality criteria that are important at the given stage of the software life cycle. Usage of tools that automate aspects of the process is emphasized. To evaluate the additional effort that comes along with the process, it was exemplarily applied for eight prototypical software modules for medical image processing. Results: The introduced process has been applied to improve the quality of all prototypes so that they could be successfully used in clinical studies. The quality refinement yielded an average of 13 person days of additional effort per project. Overall, 107 bugs were found and resolved by applying the process. Conclusions: Careful selection of quality criteria and the usage of automated process tools lead to a lightweight quality refinement process suitable for scientific research groups that can be applied to ensure a successful transfer of technical software prototypes into clinical research workflows.

Objective. This study aimed to explore the effects of individualized nursing in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Methods. From June 2019 to April 2021, 80 patients with TMD were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. Among them, 40 patients (control group, CG) received routine nursing and 40 patients (experimental group, EG) received individualized nursing. Functional exercise compliance, pain score, maximum mouth opening, nursing satisfaction questionnaire, self-rating anxiety scale, and self-rating depression scale were investigated. Results. From June 2019 to April 2021, 81 patients with TMD were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. Among them, 40 patients (control group) received routine care and 41 patients (experimental group) received individual care. There were no significant differences in mouth opening and pain score between the two groups before surgery P > 0.05 , but there were significant differences in mouth opening and pain score between the two groups 3 weeks after surgery. Patients’ anxiety and depression were assessed by the SAS and SDS scores. Before nursing, the control group and experimental group P < 0.05 had no significant difference. After nursing, the score of both groups decreased P < 0.05 . However, the score was lower in the experimental group, compared to the control group P < 0.01 . Conclusion. In summary, individualized nursing can improve patients’ physical condition and reduce negative emotions and complications. In light of this, the study needs further verification by a large sample randomized controlled trial.

At the same time, the data are analyzed, and the relationship between occupational identity and work pressure is analyzed. This article provides a certain theoretical basis and support for the decision-making of relevant nursing managers, and also makes efforts to improve the professional identity and work happiness of nursing staff. In this study, which surveyed 596 rehabilitation nurses, the nurses’ total occupational stress score was 74.52, with an average score of 2.12 points. The overall score for professional identity was 102.00, with an average score of 3.40 points. This belonged to the medium level. It showed that the occupational pressure of nurses should be paid attention to by relevant managers. Two of the five dimensions with the highest scores were occupational social support and occupational self-reflection. A negative correlation was found between occupational stress and its dimensions and occupational identity and its dimensions (P < 0.01).

Abstract:
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is traditionally treated with chemical analysis. Faced with the increasing maturity of CT imaging technology, it is necessary to use more advantageous CT imaging to treat SAP. In this article, 72 SAP patients admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University were selected for study, of which 62 were severely ill, 8 were exacerbated, and 2 changed from severe to mild. This article combines the patient’s case records and related CT images during treatment from the perspective of nursing and conducts nursing research on the application of CT image changes in severe acute pancreatitis in nursing practice. CT image processing uses CT imaging system workstation (DICOM). The results of the study showed that, in the care of patients, 21 cases had recurrence after internal drainage, and the cure rate was 91.1%. Internal drainage is an effective way to treat SAP. The higher the incidence of pancreatitis, the more likely it is to relapse after SAP internal drainage, which may be related to repeated episodes of pancreatitis and repeated inflammation of the pancreas and pancreatic duct damage. 4 of the relapsed cases in this article are postchronic pancreatitis SAP, and the relapsed cases account for 50% of the chronic pancreatic cases. This may be due to chronic fibrosis of the branched and main pancreatic ducts, continuous abnormal pancreatic juice drainage. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the prognosis of different causes of SAP. In terms of complication care, the overall complication rate was 16.6%. One patient died of postoperative hemorrhage. Analysis of the causes of cyst recurrence and complications may be closely related to the mechanism of the occurrence and development of SAP. The initiating factor of SAP is that the pancreatic tissue is damaged due to inflammation, trauma, or microcirculation disorder, and then the pancreatic juice leaks out of the pancreas, wrapping the pancreatic juice; it takes a certain time for the capsule of fibrous knot tissue to form and strengthen.

Abstract:
Breast cancer is the tumor disease with the highest incidence in women, especially lymphedema after treatment, which seriously affects the quality of life of women. In order to improve the nursing quality of breast cancer patients, medical staff uses functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to intervene in breast cancer patients, which greatly improves the recovery speed of patients. In this paper, functional magnetic resonance imaging based on the image registration method is proposed and applied to the follow-up of patients with breast cancer lymphedema after treatment. The powerful imaging effect allows doctors to timely and accurately judge the condition of the patient’s lesions after treatment, which is conducive to nursing care. The experimental results of this paper show that the total number of serious patients in group A before the experiment is 25, accounting for 83.3%. After the experiment, the total number of severe cases was 24, accounting for 80%, indicating that the nursing measures of group A did not have a great effect. The total number of severe cases in group B before the experiment was 27, accounting for 90%. The total number of severe cases after the experiment was 10, accounting for 33.3%. The effect after the experiment was significantly higher than that before the experiment, indicating that the nursing program of group B played a great role.

Abstract:
The effectiveness of the multidisciplinary nursing model in the nursing of chronic kidney disease (CKD) by using meta-analysis is explored. Relevant literatures that are in line with the multidisciplinary nursing model for CKD intervention are searched and screened from domestic and foreign literature databases such as Wanfang Medical Center, CNKNET, VIP, and PubMed, and Meta-analysis is conducted with RevMan 5.2 software. A total of 6 literatures are included, and the publication bias of the included literatures is low. Meta-analysis shows that the multidisciplinary group had a better Hb compliance rate, Hb level, Scr, eGFR, SBP, and DBP than the traditional group. The experimental results show that multidisciplinary nursing intervention can improve the nursing effect of patients with CKD and help to improve Hb, Scr, blood pressure, and glomerular filtration function of patients.

Abstract:
To study the clinical effect of psychological nursing on cardiovascular patients undergoing coronary angiography. Sixty cardiovascular patients in our hospital who needed coronary angiography were randomly divided into two groups (30 in each group); contrast agents based on gold nanoparticles were used for all patients. The experimental group received psychological nursing alongside conventional nursing care, and the control group received only conventional nursing care. The two groups were compared for ease of receiving coronary angiography, medical imaging, anxiety, depression, blood pressure, heart rate, efficacy, and patient satisfaction. A gold nanoparticle contrast agent has very low toxicity to cardiovascular endothelial cells, good biocompatibility, and a metabolic effect in vivo. Compared to the control group, the coronary angiography in the experimental group was easier; the medical images were clearer; patients’ anxiety, depression, blood pressure, and heart rate decreased; and curative effect and patient satisfaction were higher. Psychological nursing may significantly improve the psychological and physical condition of cardiovascular patients undergoing coronary angiography, effectively improve the efficacy as well as satisfaction of patients, and has obvious application value in clinical treatment. Similarly, gold nanoparticle contrast agents have important value in the clinical application of coronary angiography.

Abstract:
Introduction. Wounds are increasing in number and complexity within the hospital inpatient system, and coordinated and dedicated wound care along with the use of emerging technologies can result in improved patient outcomes. Objective. This prospective implementation study at 2 hospital inpatient sites examines the effect of bedside fluorescence imaging of wounds in the detection of elevated bacterial loads and its location in/around the wound on the inpatient wound population. Materials and Methods. Clinical assessment and fluorescence imaging assessments were performed on 26 wounds in 21 patients. Treatment plans were recorded after the clinical assessment and again after fluorescence imaging, and any alterations made to the treatment plans after imaging were noted. Results. Prior to fluorescence imaging, antimicrobial use in this patient population was common. An antimicrobial dressing, a topical antibiotic, or an oral antibiotic was prescribed in 23 wounds (88% of assessments), with antimicrobial dressings prescribed 73% of the time. Based on clinical assessment, more than half of the treated wounds were deemed negative for suspected infection. In 12 of 26 wounds, the fluorescence imaging information on bacterial presence had the potential to prompt a change in whether an antimicrobial dressing was prescribed. Five of these 12 wounds were fluorescence imaging-positive and an antimicrobial drug was not prescribed, whereas 7 of the 12 wounds were negative upon fluorescence imaging and clinical assessment but antimicrobial dressing was prescribed. Overall, fluorescence imaging detected 70% more wounds, with bacterial fluorescence indicating elevated bacterial loads, compared with clinical assessment alone, and use of imaging resulted in altered treatment plans in 35% of cases. Conclusions. Fluorescence imaging can aid in antimicrobial stewardship goals by supporting evidence-based decision-making at the point of care. In addition, use of such imaging resulted in increased communication, enhanced efficiency, and improved continuity of care between wound care providers and hospital sites.

Abstract:
The diagnosis of primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has become easier with the advent of modern imaging techniques. The incidence of ICH has declined, while SAH has remained relatively constant. The prognosis for both disorders remains dismal and the mortality rate is substantially higher than that observed with ischemic stroke. Early imaging with CT or MRI is important for rapid and accurate diagnosis. General medical management in a skilled nursing facility should be available for patients who are not moribund. Therapy for ICH is predominantly supportive and effective medical and surgical intervention remains elusive. For SAH, calcium channel blockers may reduce cerebral ischemic complications related to vasospasm, but effective medical therapy to prevent rebleeding has not been established. Early surgery after SAH should be considered in clinically stable patients. Many challenges remain regarding the prevention and treatment of both these cerebral hemorrhage subtypes.

Abstract:
Abstract The detailed physiological perspectives captured by medical imaging provides actionable insights to doctors to manage comprehensive care of patients. However, the quality of such diagnostic image modalities is often affected by mismanagement of the image capturing process by poorly trained technicians and older/poorly maintained imaging equipment. Further, a patient is often subjected to scanning at different orientations to capture the frontal, lateral and sagittal views of the affected areas. Due to the large volume of diagnostic scans performed at a modern hospital, adequate documentation of such additional perspectives is mostly overlooked, which is also an essential key element of quality diagnostic systems and predictive analytics systems. Another crucial challenge affecting effective medical image data management is that the diagnostic scans are essentially stored as unstructured data, lacking a well-defined processing methodology for enabling intelligent image data management for supporting applications like similar patient retrieval , automated disease prediction etc. One solution is to incorporate automated diagnostic image descriptions of the observation/findings by leveraging computer vision and natural language processing. In this work, we present multi-task neural models capable of addressing these critical challenges. We propose ESRGAN, an image enhancement technique for improving the quality and visualization of medical chest x-ray images, thereby substantially improving the potential for accurate diagnosis, automatic detection and region-of-interest segmentation. We also propose a CNN-based model called ViewNet for predicting the view orientation of the x-ray image and generating a medical report using Xception net, thus facilitating a robust medical image management system for intelligent diagnosis applications. Experimental results are demonstrated using standard metrics like BRISQUE, PIQE and BLEU scores, indicating that the proposed models achieved excellent performance. Further, the proposed deep learning approaches enable diagnosis in a lesser time and their hybrid architecture shows significant potential for supporting many intelligent diagnosis applications.

Abstract:
Background and Purpose: Contrast-enhanced noninvasive angiography and perfusion imaging are recommended to identify eligible patients for endovascular therapy (EVT) in extended time windows (>6 hours or wake-up). If eligible, additional intraarterial contrast exposure will occur during EVT. We aimed to study the renal safety in the DEFUSE 3 (Endovascular Therapy Following Imaging Evaluation for Ischemic Stroke) population, selected with contrast-enhanced multimodal Imaging and randomized to EVT versus medical management. Methods: In the randomized DEFUSE 3 trial population, we compared changes in serum creatinine between baseline (before randomization) and 24 hours later. The primary outcome was the relative change in creatinine level between baseline and 24 hours in the EVT versus medical arm. The secondary outcome was a comparison between computed tomography (CT) versus magnetic resonance imaging selection in the EVT arm. The safety outcome was a comparison of the proportion of patients with criteria for contrast-associated kidney injury in the EVT versus medical arm and a comparison between CT versus magnetic resonance imaging selection in the EVT arm. Results: In the DEFUSE 3 population (n=182, age 69±13, 51% female), mean creatinine decreased from a baseline of 0.98±0.33 mg/dL to 0.88±0.28 mg/dL at 24 hours ( P <0.001). There was no difference in change between treatment groups: relative to baseline, there was a 6.3% reduction in the EVT group versus 9.2% in the medical group, P =0.294. Absolute decrease −0.08±0.18 in EVT versus −0.12±0.18 in medical, P =0.135; Among patients treated with EVT, there was no difference in 24-hour creatinine level changes between patients who were selected with CT angiography/CT perfusion (−0.08±0.18) versus magnetic resonance imaging (−0.07±0.19), P =0.808 or 6.8% reduction versus 4.8%, P =0.696. In the EVT arm, contrast-associated kidney injury was encountered in 4 out of 91 (4.4%) versus 2/90 (2.2%) in the medical arm P =0.682. In the EVT arm, contrast-associated kidney injury was evenly distributed between magnetic resonance imaging (1/22, 4.6%) versus CT 3 out of 69 (4.4%), P =1.0. Conclusions: Perfusion imaging before EVT was not associated with evidence of decline in renal function. Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov . Unique identifier: NCT02586415.

Abstract:
Objective. The objective is to explore the nursing methods of evidence-based nursing in preventing serious complications in patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension. Methods. A total of 80 patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension from April 2020 to April 2022 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and a research group, with 40 cases in each group. The blood pressure, Self-Efficacy Scale score, Disease Uncertainty Scale score, the incidence of maternal and infant complications, the improvement of mental state, and the patients’ satisfaction with the nursing program were observed and compared between the two groups. Results. Compared with before the intervention, the self-efficacy scores of the two groups were significantly improved, and the blood pressure, disease uncertainty score, SAS, and SDS scores were significantly decreased, and the indicators in the study group were better than those before the intervention. In the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After the intervention, among the 40 patients in the study group, 10 cases (25.00%) of cesarean section were significantly lower than 19 cases (47.50%) in the control group, and the nursing work satisfaction in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion. The application of evidence-based nursing interventions and smart medical nursing interventions to patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome has significant effect and can effectively improve the blood pressure control effect of patients during pregnancy.

Abstract:
The nursing curriculum is to be modernized to improve the student’s skills in meeting the recent trends in medical and healthcare fields. The curriculum improvements are based on expert recommendations, authors, and informative data from different web sources. The challenging task is to improve the readability and understandability of the curriculum to real-time standards. Considering the above facts, this article introduces a refined curriculum with Internet information analysis (RC-IIA) method. The proposed method incorporates the distributed Internet, journal, and previous curriculum information within the active nursing syllabus. This prevents repetitions and less-informative content within the active curriculum. Besides, classification learning for knowledge-based representations is used within the curriculum to improve competency. Based on the refined information, a recommendation-based curriculum is preferred for varying information across different standards. The proposed analysis method relies on existing and distributed information across multiple curriculum providers for leveraging the visibility and prolonging the stealth of the nursing curriculum.

The research achievements of artificial intelligence technology in the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were explored, and the advantages and problems encountered in the development of intelligent nursing were analyzed. This paper presents the application of artificial intelligence in the emergency care of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The method included 447 COPD patients in a randomized controlled trial to observe the improvement of quality of life at 4 and 12 months after artificial intelligence medical intervention. A prospective randomized controlled trial included 101 patients with COPD who underwent a 9-month web-based knowledge exercise on the prevention of acute exacerbation of COPD through artificial intelligence medicine and were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The results show that, in the experimental group and the control group, after 4 months, the quality of life does not change; after 12 months, compared with controls, the quality of life and emotional and psychological conditions have improved obviously. 29 patients who participated in the experiment and were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group showed satisfactory results. COPD hospitalized rate and length of hospital stay were decreased in the experimental group than in the control group. For single-factor analysis, artificial intelligence medical intervention has not achieved significant significance, and the experimental results have preliminarily confirmed the effectiveness of artificial intelligence medical treatment.

Abstract:
Objective: The mortality and disability rate of cerebral infarction are high. Early diagnosis and early treatment can improve the prognosis of patients. Conventional computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is lack of sufficient sensitivity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of MRI diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in the early analysis of acute cerebral infarction. Methods: Forty patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were examined in this study. With the cooperation of nursing staff, the routine MRI scan sequence and DWI was performed. The ADC values were analyzed and compared in different patients. Results: All the patients completed the examination successfully. In conventional MRI, equal signal was found in hyperacute cerebral infarction, while high signal on T2WI was found in 66% of patients with acute cerebral infarction. Both hyperacute and acute cerebral infarction showed the high signal in DWI. Compared with the contralateral normal tissues, the ADC value in cerebral infarction area was significantly decreased, especially in patients with hyperacute cerebral infarction. Conclusions: The nursing cooperation is helpful for the MRI examination. The DWI is more sensitive than conventional MRI in the analysis of acute cerebral infarction and can distinguish the hyperacute and acute stage, thus providing evidence for effective individualized treatment of patients.

Abstract:
Ultrasound is a common first-line imaging investigation that uses sound waves to produce an image (sonogram) of the internal organs. It is easy, quick and cost-effective to perform and safe, non-invasive and generally painless for the patient. Abdominal ultrasound in particular visualises the hepatobiliary system. It is used to investigate abdominal pain, abnormal liver function tests, distension and jaundice, as well as to screen for hepatocellular carcinoma and abdominal aortic aneurysm. Ultrasound requests should include relevant clinical background information to ensure the patient receives the right test and help the sonographer rule out differential diagnoses. Before the test, patients should be given all available information and asked to fast for 6–8 hours, although clear fluids are permitted. The scan usually procedure takes 15–30 minutes but may be extended depending on pathology identified. The sonogram displays the comparative echogenicity of the liver and adjacent organs in real time. Increased echogenicity, a coarse echotexture and a saw-tooth liver edge are indicative of liver pathology. Ultrasound can also allow the assessment of the portal venous system to exclude portal vein thrombus or elevated portal velocities. Advanced clinical nurse practitioners can order ultrasounds in line with local hospital trust guidance, which may include Ionising Radiation Medical Exposure Regulations (IRMER) training.
