“…Moreover, in China, most of the population lives in rural areas with very poor primary medical care facilities. In addition, the education of the populace tends to be poor, so most lack the knowledge and skills needed for stoma care (Wang et al, ; Wang, Ma, Zheng, & Li ). When the child returns home from the hospital, the parents are often ill prepared to ensure effective nursing care and seeking help at a community health care facility often leads to serious complications before the patient is returned to the hospital.…”

Aim To explore and improve nursing care for infants after enterostomy. Methods A total of 483 infants who underwent enterostomy from January 2014 to January 2019 were enrolled in this study. Results During hospitalization and follow‐up, there were 30 infants with peripheral skin complications, including 15 cases of allergic dermatitis, 13 cases of faecal dermatitis and two cases of avulsion injury. Conclusion Without proper and effective nursing care, the peripheral skin complications of enterostomy‐related can easily develop. Therefore, careful postoperative care and effective family follow‐up and guidance are essential after discharge, and using WeChat to follow‐up can provide timely and effective follow‐up and guidance to patients. Implications for Nursing Management This study summarizes the experience of nursing care for infants over a 5‐year period. Nurses must provide sound care for infants after enterostomy, timely and effectively address complications, guide nursing care performed by family members and strengthen follow‐up through the WeChat online support group to reduce the occurrence of complications.

mHealth Apps for Enhanced Management of Spinal Surgery Patients: A Review

mHealth (mobile health) refers to mobile technologies that aid medical and public health practices. As of February 2019, 81% of Americans own a smartphone, and mHealth applications (apps) have become increasingly common with more than 400,000 mHealth applications currently available. Advancements in mobile technology now allow us to provide personalized up-to-date information, track personal health data, remind and engage patients, and communicate in a cost-effective way. There are new opportunities for healthcare providers to integrate mHealth into clinical practice. We discuss the current scientific evidence, and research into mHealth technology.

“…Hospitals with experience and capacity for mobile application follow-up should utilize these resources to maximize virtual patient contact. 36,37 Looking Ahead As our ability to test patients improves, it may be prudent to test all patients preoperatively and consider delaying surgery for any asymptomatic carriers of coronavirus to prevent inadvertently triggering occult disease postoperatively. Of course, our abilities to test for either active disease or immunity are quickly evolving, and available resources should be assessed regularly.…”

The extraordinary spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has dramatically and rapidly changed the way in which we provide medical care for patients with all diagnoses. Conservation of resources, social distancing, and the risk of poor outcomes in COVID-19-positive cancer patients have forced practitioners and surgeons to completely rethink routine care. The treatment of patients with rectal cancer requires both a multidisciplinary approach and a significant amount of resources. It is therefore imperative to rethink how rectal cancer treatment can be aligned with the current COVID-19 pandemic paradigms. In this review, we discuss evidence-based recommendations to optimize oncological outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic.
