“…Characteristics of samples were heterogeneous: number of patients evaluated varied from 30 (23) to 4,872 (24) , and mean age varied from 55.8 ± 13.2 (22) to 68.9 ± 9.5 (16) years. Mean time of evolution of DM varied from 5.9 ± 7.1 (22) to 22 ± 11.4 years (17) ; however, three studies lacked this information (15,18,20) . Time of follow-up of patients after intervention varied from 3 months (22) to 7.7 years (21) .…”

RESUMO Objetivo: Apresentar as complicações neurocirúrgicas que ocorrem com grande freqüência; apesar dos esforços para preveni-las, algumas são inevitáveis. Método: Analisaram-se as principais complicações decorrentes de procedimentos neurocirúrgicos e os tratamentos específicos, baseados em revisão literária e em experiência própria. Conclusão: O tratamento médico dessas complicações pode ser transitório ou definitivo da causa subjacente, conforme a evolução clínica do paciente. PALAVRAS-CHAVE Neurocirurgia. Complicações intra-operatórias. Complicações pós-operatórias. ABSTRACT Treatment of clinical complications due to neurosurgical interventions. Part I: Infections, complications of specific procedures, systemic complications, cognitive and others complications Objective: Review the more frequent neurosurgical complications, some of which are inevitable although the efforts to avoid them. Method: The principal complications of neurosurgical proceeds and their treatment are presented based on literature review end personal experience. Conclusion: The medical treatment of these complications can be transitory or definitive of the underlying cause, as the clinical evolution of the patient. KEY WORDS Neurosurgery. Intraoperative complications. Postoperative complications. Introdução As complicações decorrentes de procedimentos neurocirúrgicos são freqüentes. Para diminuir a mor-bidade dessas complicações, devem ser diagnosticadas em tempo eficaz e uma equipe multidisciplinar deve instituir a terapêutica correta, que inclui neurocirurgião, neurologista, intensivista, infectologista, endocrinolo-gista e demais especialidades afins 65. Os autores apresentam revisão sobre as princi-pais complicações decorrentes de procedimentos neurocirúrgicos e o tratamento específico em alguns casos, baseados em dados obtidos na literatura e na experiência própria.

“…Nursing interventions for the prevention of diabetic foot were performed both individually [16,21,23,25,[28][29] and in a collective basis [19,20,22,24,26,30], or both [17][18]27]. The vast majority of interventions were from institutional health promotion programs [16, 18, 20-21, 24, 26, 27, 29, 30].…”

“…For the promotion of behavioral changes, several resources and strategies have been used in the interventions, such as educational sessions [16-17, 20, 23, 25, 30], printed materials (letters, pamphlets, fliers) [18,[20][21], reinforcement phone calls [21,25], educational videos [26], plays [30], professional update seminars [16][17], home and/or outpatient visits [20,23,28]. It is recommended that health services have, use, and promote resources and strategies to facilitate interventions for the prevention of foot injuries in diabetic patients, such as audio tapes, video tapes, pamphlets, fliers, magazines and books; reinforcement of social interventions (patient and family association); and further research on the evaluation of the impact of health education on diabetic patients [24].…”

Objective: This study aims to perform a literature review of nursing interventions for ulcer prevention in patients with diabetic foot.Method: This is an integrative review which included studies from BDENF, LILACS, IBECS, CINAHL and PubMed databases, as well as the virtual library SCIELO without time restriction. Results:The authors identified fifteen articles that met the study criteria. Nursing interventions for ulcer prevention in diabetic foot were performed both individually and on a collective basis, or as combination. The huge majority of interventions were done in institutional programs for health promotion. Conclusion:The current evidence demonstrates the importance of health education as a tool in diabetic foot and lower extremities amputation prevention. This type of education increases patient's awareness of their own disease and help them to develop skills for self-care and better lifestyle.

Background Diabetic wound is a severe complication of diabetes. Stem cell is considered as a promising therapy for diabetic skin wounds. Hydrogel can supply niche for cells adhesion and survival to improve the efficacy of stem cell therapy, but the development of hydrogel with suitable properties remains a great challenge. Thus, our study was conducted to combine an optimized hydrogel with stem cell to improve complex diabetic wound treatment. Methods This study constructed a hydrogel with low toxicity and adjustable mechanical properties from gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and chitosan-catechol (Chi-C), and encapsulated human umbilical cord-mesenchymal stem cells (hUMSCs) to repair full-thickness diabetic wound. Results We explored the relationship between mechanical stiffness and cell proliferation and differentiation potency, and found 10% GelMA hydrogel with an optimal stiffness improved hUMSCs adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation potency maintenance in vitro. Assistant with optimized hydrogel encapsulating hUMSCs, diabetic wound healing process was greatly accelerated, including accelerated wound closure, inhibited secretion of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-1β, promoted vascular regeneration and collagen deposition after treatment of hUMSCs. Conclusions The optimized hydrogel encapsulating hUMSCs improved diabetic wound healing, and has a broad implication for the treatment of diabetic complication.
