ObjectiveTo observe the effects and security of dexmedetomidine in combined spinal epidural anesthesia (CSEA) for laparoscopic total extraperitoneal hernia repair (TEP). MethodsFrom January 2010 to January 2013, we selected 90 patients who were going to receive TEP surgery as our study subjects. The patients were divided into three groups:M1, M2 and M3 with 30 patients in each. The patients had left lateral position, and anesthesia was done between 3-4 lumbar epidural line. Injection of 0.5% bupivacaine 2 mL was carried out, and epidural catheter was 3-5 cm. Anesthesia plane was adjusted from the chest 4 or 6 vertebra to the sacral vertebra. The three groups of patients were treated with micro pump using dexmedetomidine given at a pre-charge of 0.5 μg/kg, and then group M1 was maintained by 0.3 μg/(kg·h), M2 by 0.5 μg/(kg·h), and M3 by 0.7 μg/(kg·h). The changes of mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate, respiration and pulse oximetry (SpO2) were observed at each time point, and bispectral index (BIS) monitor and Ramsay sedation score test were also conducted. ResultsThe changes of MAP, heart rate and respiration in group M1 were not obvious; the Ramsay score for group M1 was 2 to 3, and BIS value after pre-charge was 65-84. For group M2, MAP, heart rate and respiration had a slight decline; Ramsay score was 3-5 points, and BIS value was 60-79. In group M3, patients had a milder decline in their MAP and respiration; the heart rate declined obviously after receiving dexmedetomidine and one patient with severe decline of the heart rate alleviated after active treatment; Ramsay score was 5 to 6 points, and BIS value was between 55 and 75. There was little change in SpO2 in all the three groups, and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). ConclusionContinuous injection of dexmedetomidine at 0.3-0.5 μg/(kg·h) in CSEA is an alternative way for anesthesia, which can effectively promote sedation and reduce pain and discomfort.
Seventy-four cases of peripheral arterial injuries in recent 30 years were reported. Mostof them were main arteies in extremeties. Twenty-eight cases were performed end to end anastomosis and 7 of them received amputation for various complications. We also performed 12 cases of reparatidn of wall, 20 cases of vascular grafts and 7 cases of arterial ligation. There were 16 cases of amputation and one death. We think that artemal injuries should be operated as soon as possible. Arteial reconstruction was mostly used, including reparation of wall, end-to-end anastomosis and autovenous graft. Other procedures should be emphasized, such as complete debridement of the soft tissue and vessels, appropriate fixation of fracture, exploration and reconstruction of major veins, enough decompression of interfascia compartment, proper drainage of would and good surgical skill. Local and general anticoagulation were good to treatment of arterial injuries during and after operation .
ObjectiveTo evaluate rational use of antibiotics for hernioplasty in perioperative period by intervention-control study in order to provide a foundation for the clinical antibiotic use and management. MethodsThe data of the preventive use of antibiotics for hernia patients from January to October, 2010 in perioperative period were collected and compared. Interventions on patients from January to October, 2011 were carried out. ResultsIn the intervention group, the first three antibiotics used were changed from azlocillin, mezlocillin and aztreonam before intervention to cefazolin, clindamycin and azlocillin after intervention. Before intervention, antibiotics were first used after surgery for surgical prophylaxis, while after intervention, antibiotics were first used within 30 minutes before surgery or at the start of induction of anesthesia. The preventive medication time decreased from (3.50±2.07) days to (0.88±1.07) days (t'=14.601, P=0.000), the hospitalization days of post-surgery decreased from (5.17±1.90) days to (3.77±1.61) days (t'=7.313, P=0.000), the cost of antibiotics decreased from (342.39±415.50) yuan to (54.08±80.83) yuan (t'=8.831, P=0.000), the percentage of the cost of antibiotics in expenses for medicine declined from (47.53±25.51)% to (12.49±13.46)% (t'=15.776, P=0.000), and the percentage of the cost of antibiotics in hospitalization expenses declined from (6.59±5.49)% to (1.07±1.35)% (t'=12.662, P=0.000). The difference in inappropriate use of antibiotic drugs before and after prevention, such as choice of preventive drugs, preoperative medication occasion, course of postoperative medication and no indication of drug combination, had statistical significances (P<0.05). ConclusionThe intervention-control study shows that the rational use of antibiotics for hernioplasty in perioperative period can be improved, and the average hospitalization days and the cost of antibiotics can be reduced by intervention.
Objective To investigate the application of transverse fascia in inguinal hernia repair. Methods In this study, 617 patients underwent inguinal hernia repair between January 1990 and December 2005 in our hospital were included, which were divided into two groups according to different operative ways: transverse fascia method group (n=337) and Bassini method group (n=280). Then intraoperative results, postoperative complications, and rehabilitated results of patients in two groups were compared. Results Compared with Bassini method group, the patients in transverse fascia method group did not show significant difference in operative time and blood loss during operation (Pgt;0.05). The differences of severe postoperative pain, testicular swelling, the time of the body’s restore for normal activities, and recurrence rate of patients between two groups were significant (Plt;0.05), while the difference of hematoma of scrotum and infection of incisional wound (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion The strengthening of posterior wall by transverse fascia and reconstruction of inner ring is a simple and effective method for inguinal hernia repair.
目的:探讨腹股沟马鞍疝无张力疝修补手术方式的选择。方法:回顾性调查206例腹股沟马鞍疝患者,其中行巴德网塞充填式修补术57例,普里灵疝装置腹膜前间隙修补术149例,观察两种修补方式的手术时间、手术方式及要点、术后并发症、恢复情况、平均住院日及复发率。结果:两种方式修补的患者围手术期均无死亡。手术时间、恢复情况、术后平均住院天数和并发症两种方式差异均无统计学意义(Pgt;0.05)。患者术后平均随访分别为(2.3±0.5)和(2.2±0.7)年,随访时间无统计学差异(Pgt;0.05)。普里灵疝装置修补组的费用较巴德网塞组低。57例巴德网塞修补术后有2例复发,149例普里灵疝装置腹膜前间隙修补术后无复发。结论:腹膜前间隙无张力疝修补术是腹股沟马鞍疝的首选手术方式。
Objective To compare the therapeutic effect of procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids （PPH） and Block repair procedure for rectocele．Methods A retrospective study of 62 patients with surgical treatment for rectocele was analyzed．The patients were divided into PPH group （n=32） and Block group （n=30） according to the different operation procedure．The symptoms score of improvement of the patients after surgery was compared between the two groups， including operation time，intraoperative blood loss， postoperative pain score， required analgesic times， postoperative complications，hospitalization time，and hospitalization expenses．Results The symptoms of constipation of patients in two groups was significantly improved afer operation．Comparing one month with three months of Longo’s obstructed defecation syndrome （ODS） score after the operation，there was no significant difference in the PPH group（P＞0.05）， but significant difference in the Block group（P＜0.01）．Although the expenses of the PPH group was much higher than that of the Block group （P＜0.01）， the outcomes of the PPH group were much better than those of the Block group （P＜0.01）， including the postoperative Longo’s ODS score of one month and three months，operation time，intraoperative blood loss， postoperative pain score，required analgesic times，and hospitalization time．Two cases of lightly postoperative incontinence occurred in the PPH group，but completely recovered after three months in the clinical follow-up．Conclusions The PPH is as safe and effective as Block repair procedure for rectocele. The short time effect and lower recurrence rate of the PPH are better than those of the Block repair procedure．
Objective To summary the experience of transabdominal preperitoneal space tension-free repair for inguinal saddle hernia. Methods 〗The clinical data of 151 cases of inguinal saddle hernias underwent transabdominal preperitoneal space tension-free repair with Prolene hernia system (PHS) were retrospectively analyzed. The operative time, postoperative pain, hospital stay, recurrence and postoperative complications were observed. Results The average operative time in unilateral hernias was (29.8±9.6) min. Postoperative complications included one case of pain in groin and 4 cases of scrotum edema. No incision infection and mortality occurred. Postoperative duration of hospital stay was 3 to 5 days. All cases were followed up for 1-5 years and no recurrence happened. Conclusion 〗Transabdominal preperitoneal space tension-free repair for inguinal saddle hernia by PHS is safe and reliable.
