Total satisfaction of clinical nursing was compared between the two groups.ResultsCompared with 10 cases (62.50%) in the control group, 15 cases (93.75%) in the observation group had better overall nursing satisfaction, and the difference between the two groups was significant (P<0.05).ConclusionsFor patients with AE, comprehensive nursing service can significantly improve the quality of life of patients, which has clinical application value.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical therapeutic effect of support plates on Schatzker type Ⅳ tibial plateau fractures.MethodsPatients with Schatzker type Ⅳ tibial plateau fractures underwent support plates treatment between April 2013 and September 2014 by using the medial incision or posterior medial incision, if necessary, with other auxiliary incisions, with limited contact compression plate, 1/3 tubular plate or " T” plate to support the fracture. ResultsA total of 14 patients including 6 males and 8 females with an average age of (35.2±9.8) years (ranged from 20 to 52 years) were enrolled in this study and followed up for 12–25 months with an average of (16.3±4.0) months. The knee joints were flexed 80–130° with an average of (97.9±13.1)° one month after the surgery and 90–140° with an average of (119.3±12.1)° three months after the surgery. One year postoperatively, the mean Hospital of Special Surgery knee score ranged from 78 to 96 with an average of 88.4±4.9. Last follow-up assessment of knee function according to Rasmussen scoring system showed excellent in 8 cases, good in 4 cases, and fair in 2 cases; the excellent and good rate was 85.7%. No postoperative complications such as infection, nonunion, vascular nerve injury, or internal fixation failure occurred. ConclusionThe support plates for the treatment of Schatzker type Ⅳ tibial plateau fractures can maintain good reduction, prevent the secondary collapse of the tibial plateau, ensure that knee joint has good alignment, less complications with vascular or nerve injuries, and finally get a satisfied function recovery.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect and prognosis of laparoscopic complete mesocolic resection (CME) in the treatment of elderly patients with stage Ⅲ right colon cancer.MethodsClinical data of 280 elderly patients (aged 60 years or older) who underwent stage Ⅲ right hemicolectomy in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from 2010 to 2015 were collected. Among them, 160 patients underwent laparoscopic CME treatment were set as the observation group, and 120 patients underwent conventional laparotomy were set as the control group. The mean operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative first anal exhaust time, number of lymph nodes dissection, number of positive lymph nodes, length of hospital stay and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. The postoperative local recurrence rate, distant metastasis rate, 3-year cumulative survival rate and postoperative recurrence risk factors were analyzed.ResultsThere were no statistically significant differences between the observation group and the control group in operative time, number of lymph node dissection, number of positive lymph nodes and postoperative distant metastasis rate (P>0.05). The amount of intraoperative blood loss, postoperative anal first exhaust time, days of hospitalization, and postoperative recurrence rate in the observation group were less or shorter or lower than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The 3-year survival rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (log-rank χ2 =11.865, P=0.001), and the disease free survival in the observation group was also higher than that in the control group (log-rank χ2=7.567, P=0.006). Logistic regression was used to analyze the cases of postoperative recurrence in the two groups, and it was found that the degree of tumor differentiation, vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors for postoperative tumor recurrence.ConclusionLaparoscopic CME in the treatment of elderly patients with stage Ⅲ right colon cancer is effective, it is safe and feasible, which can effectively prolong the survival time of patients.

Objective To observe the clinical outcomes of Hangman fracture treated by anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. Methods A total of 41 patients with Hangman fracture were retrospectively analyzed, who underwent anterior cervical discectomy and fusion from May 2010 to May 2016. Intervertebral bone graft fusion was observed through postoperative radiographic images, and improvement of symptoms was evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scale (m-JOA). Surgical complications were evaluated as well. Results No severe complications occurred after surgery, but 5 patients had a transient dysphagia, which relieved spontaneously. Thirty-five patients had a fusion of intervertebral bone graft 3 months after surgery, and the remaining 6 patients did at the last follow-up. The VAS score was improved from 4.5±1.6 pre-operatively to 2.4±1.7 immediately post-operatively (P>0.05), and was further improved to 0.7±0.9 at the last follow-up (P<0.05). The NDI score was improved from 29.3±10.9 pre-operatively to 13.2±5.4 immediately post-operatively (P<0.05), and was further improved to 4.6±3.1 at the last follow-up (P<0.05). The m-JOA score was improved from 8.4±2.3 pre-operatively to 11.6±3.5 immediately post-operatively (P<0.05), and was further improved to 14.3±2.0 at the last follow-up (P<0.05). Conclusion Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion can be used in Hangman fracture, which is safe and reliable.
ObjectiveTo explore the practice of the evidence-based treatment strategy for cervical spinal cord injury. MethodsOne patient with cervical spinal cord injury was admitted to our hospital on January 3, 2013. We obtained medical evidences by searching databases and regulated the best treatment after evaluating the patient's comprehensive conditions. And then, the whole treatment strategy was fully implemented. Finally, the consequent results were evaluated. ResultsThe evidence-based medicine showed that the therapeutic targets were to save the residual function, prevent complications, and promote the recovery of neural function. Based on the real-time conditions of patient, we developed and practiced the evidence-based comprehensive rehabilitation programs, including absolute rest in bed, high-dose steroids, neurotrophic drugs, Chinese medicine rehabilitation and prevention of complications. After a follow-up of half a year, the patient obtained a good curative effect. The patient was saved from paralyzing. Moreover, the patient restored the capacity of standing, walking and a certain level of self-care ability. ConclusionFor the cervical spinal cord injury, treatment decision based on evidence-based medicine is more scientific, and it can ensure maximum benefit for the patients. Therefore, it is worthy of popularizing.
Objective To compare efficacy of laparoscopic and open duodenal circular drainage operation for superior mesenteric artery compressing syndrome (SMACS). Methods From December 2012 to December 2015, the clinical data of 23 cases of laparoscopic duodenal circular drainage operation (laparoscope group) and 28 cases of open duodenal circular drainage operation (open group) were analyzed. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative ambulation time, postoperative analgesics usage, postoperative the first exhaust time, postoperative the first feeding time, postoperative hospitalization time and postoperative incidence of complications were compared. The patients were followed up to confirm the effect after the operation. Results There were no differences of the age, sex, and body weight index between the laparoscope group and the open group (P>0.05). The operation time had no significant difference between these two groups (P>0.05). Compared with the open group, the intraoperative bleeding was less (P<0.05), the postoperative ambulation time, postoperative the first exhaust time, postoperative the first feeding time, postoperative hospitalization time were shorter (P<0.05), the rates of postoperative analgesics usage, incision infection, pulmonary infection, and intestinal obstruction were lower (P<0.05) in the laparoscope group. The rates of anastomotic leakage and anastomotic bleeding, and total postoperative complications rate had no significant differences between these two groups (P>0.05). All the patients were followed up for 8–36 months. The clinical symptoms disappeared and the body weight increased to normal level in the two groups. Conclusions Preliminary results of in this study show that laparoscopic duodenal circular drainage operation in treatment of SMACS has some advantages such as less trauma, faster recovery, fewer complications and shorter hospitalization time. Laparoscopy will be an ideal choice for treatment of SMACS.
