Randomized Controlled Trial[The efficacy of intermittent pneumatic compression in the prevention of venous thromboembolism in medical critically ill patients].
To evaluate the efficacy of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in medical critically ill patients. ⋯ IPC can prevent VTE, and lower the rate of non-sudden cardiac death, and it is safe in medical critically ill patients.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Effect of Xuebijing injection on T helper 17 and CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells in patients with sepsis].
To study the level and significance of T helper 17 (Th17) and CD4(+) CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Treg) in peripheral blood of patients with sepsis and to evaluate the effects of Xuebijing injection on them. ⋯ The expression of Th17 and CD4(+)CD25(+) Treg was increased in sepsis patients and was positively correlated with severity of sepsis, suggesting that they may play an important role in pathogenesis of sepsis. Xuebijing injection could decrease the abnormal expression of Th17 and CD4(+) CD25(+) Treg and tend to decrease the fatality rate of sepsis.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Clinical study on plasma soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 in patients with sepsis].
To observe the dynamic changes in plasma soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1), and to approach the effect on predicting outcome of the patient with sepsis combined with sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score. ⋯ The plasma sTREM-1 concentration was elevated at the early stage in patients with sepsis. Dynamic changes in sTREM-1 level combined with SOFA score may be helpful in predicting outcome of the patient with sepsis.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Difference between single hole exhalation valve and plateau exhalation valve when used in patients treated with BiPAP Vision ventilator for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with hypercapnia].
To observe difference in clinical effect between single hole exhalation valve and plateau exhalation valve when used in patients treated with BiPAP Vision ventilator for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with hypercapnia. ⋯ During BiPAP Vision ventilator in NIPPV treatment of patients with COPD complicated with CO2 retention , single hole exhalation valve and plateau exhalation valve both resulted in marked improvement in PaO2 and obvious decrease in PaCO2. Plateau exhalation valve corrected CO2 retention more quickly and effectively than side hole exhalation valve probably by preventing CO2 rebreathing by the patients.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study[A comparison of bispectral index and sedation agitation scale in guiding sedation therapy: a randomized controlled study in patients undergoing short term mechanical ventilation].
To compare the value of bispectral index (BIS) monitoring and sedation agitation scale (SAS) in guiding intensive care unit (ICU) sedation therapy for the patients undergoing short term mechanical ventilation. ⋯ BIS monitoring is better in sedative control than SAS assessment for ICU patients undergoing short term mechanical ventilation.
