Experimental Group

This study examined the effects of group art therapy on depression, burden, and self-efficacy in primary family caregivers of patients with brain injuries. This was a quasi-experimental, nonequivalent control group and a pre- and post-test design. This study was carried out in one national rehabilitation hospital targeting 41 primary family caregivers of patients with brain injuries. Group art therapy intervention was carried out three days per week comprising 12 sessions over four consecutive weeks. The experimental group (n = 20) received group art therapy, whereas the control group (n = 21) did not. We used a time difference method to minimize the risk of contaminating the control group by sampling sequentially. For depression, although there was a significant difference after the intervention (t = 3.296, p = 0.004), the mean difference score was not statistically significant between the experimental group and the control group (t = 0.861, p = 0.395). The experimental group showed a significantly greater decrease in burden (t = 2.462, p = 0.020) and significantly greater improvement in self-efficacy (t = −6.270, p < 0.001) than the control group. Group art therapy may be an effective nursing intervention for primary family caregivers of patients with brain injuries.

High Dose Aprotinin

Fifty patients undergoing primary coronary artery bypass surgery and 50 patients undergoing valve surgery received either high-dose aprotinin (2 million units loading dose, 2 million units added to the CPB prime, and 500,000 units/hr maintenance infusion) or placebo. Mean postoperative blood loss in the first six hours was reduced from 321 ml in the placebo group to 172 ml in the aprotinin group (95% confidence interval (CI) for difference = 95 to 189 ml). Seven patients in the placebo group and 16 patients in the aprotinin group did not require transfusion with homologous blood. This study adds to the growing body of evidence that the administration of high-dose aprotinin reduces blood loss and blood transfusion requirements associated with primary cardiac surgery.
