Abstract ( 49 )  
Objective: To compare the effects of midline catheters inserted through different puncture veins in neonates, and to provide a basis for selecting the best puncture vein for the insertion of midline catheters in critical neonates. Methods: A retrospective study was adopted, and 244 neonates with indwelling midline catheters admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in a tertiary grade A general hospital in Anhui province from August 2020 to December 2023 were selected by convenience sampling method as the research subjects. The indwelling time of catheters, the incidence of catheter-related complications, the success rate of one-time puncture and the one-time successful catheter delivery rate were compared. Results: The indwelling time of midline catheters was 14(10, 17) days for the axillary vein, 13(11, 19) days for the basilic vein, 13(10, 18) days for the median cubital vein, 11(7, 13) days for the superficial temporal vein, 10(7, 14) days for the cephalic vein, and 4(4, 6) days for the great saphenous vein. There was a significant difference in the indwelling time among different puncture veins (P<0.05). The incidence of catheter-related complications was 0 for the axillary vein, 0 for the basilic vein, 8.6% for the median cubital vein, 33.3% for the superficial temporal vein, 46.7% for the cephalic vein, and 100.0% for the great saphenous vein. There was a significant difference in the incidence of complications among different puncture veins (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the one-time puncture success rate among each group (P>0.05), but the one-time successful catheter delivery rates of the median cubital vein and axillary vein were significantly higher than that of superficial temporal vein (both P<0.05). Conclusion: Inserting midline catheters in the axillary vein and the median cubital vein can prolong the indwelling time of the catheter, improve the smoothness of catheter delivery, and reduce the incidence of complications. Therefore, it is recommended that when performing midline catheters catheterization in newborns, the axillary vein and the median cubital vein should be given priority.

Abstract ( 36 )  
Objective: To develop a post-discharge management model for patients with Severe Acute Pancreatitis (SAP) based on a whole-course intelligent platform and to provide a reference for its management. Methods: A post-discharge management model for SAP patients was constructed based on a whole-course intelligent platform. A management team was established, and multiple platform access points were set up, covering ten core functions. Using a quasi-experimental study design, patients enrolled from January to September 2023 were assigned as the intervention group, while eligible patients discharged from January to September 2022 were selected as the historical control group. Management was implemented through the platform, and the operation status, application effectiveness, and patient satisfaction of the model were statistically analyzed. Results: The platform cumulatively served 234 SAP patients, with a loss-to-follow-up rate of 0. Online consultations provided full-day coverage from 8:00 to 22:00, with 38.9% of consultations occurring during non-working hours. Compared to the non-enrolled group, the enrolled group demonstrated significantly higher rates of follow-up completion and on-time re-examination (P<0.05), a shorter average waiting time for readmission, and a lower incidence of complications during the home care period (P<0.05). The overall patient satisfaction score was 9.52±0.59. Conclusion: The SAP post-discharge management model based on the whole-course intelligent platform effectively meets patients' rehabilitation needs, improves management quality and efficiency, enhances patient satisfaction, and offers valuable insights for clinical practice.
