ObjectiveTo explore the protective effects of abdominal paracentesis drainage (APD) on pancreatitis-associated liver injury in the early phase of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). MethodsOne hundred and fourteen consecutive patients with SAP, admitted to the General Hospital of Western Theater Command from January 2015 to January 2021, were included in this retrospective study. The patients were divided into the APD group (n=61) and the non-APD group (n=53) based on whether they underwent APD treatment within 72 h of admission. The variables including baseline data, liverfunction tests, inflammation indexes, severity scores and other variables of the two groups were statistically analyzed. ResultsThe hospital mortality in the APD group was lower than that in the non-APD group (8.2% vs. 22.6%, P=0.031). These severity scores (including APACHE Ⅱ score, Ranson score and modified Marshall score) and inflammation indexes (including C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-α) in the APD group were all lower than those in the non-APD group (P<0.05). In terms of liver function related indexes, the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), total bilirubin (TBIL), and direct bilirubin (DBIL) after treatment in both two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (P<0.05). The levels of ALT, AST, TBIL and DBIL after treatment in the APD group were lower than those in the non-APD group (P<0.05), and the levels of prealbumin and albumin after treatment in the APD group were higher than those in the non-APD group (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in the levels of alkaline phosphatase, GGT and 5′ -nucleotidase after treatment in the two group (P>0.05). ConclusionFor SAP patients with ascitic fluid, application of APD can attenuate liver injury and improve liver function in the early stage of SAP.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of plasminogen activator assist external ventricular drainage in cerebral hemorrhage.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, CBM and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the efficacy and safety of plasminogen activator assist external ventricular drainage in cerebral hemorrhage from inception to March 2019. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 23 RCTs involving 1 560 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with the blank control or placebo, the addition of plasminogen activator urokinase after puncture and drainage could improve the clinical efficacy (RR=1.36, 95%CI 1.26 to 1.47, P<0.000 01), shorten removal time of hematoma (MD=−3.37, 95%CI −3.89 to −2.85, P<0.000 01), reduce postoperative re-bleeding rate (Peto OR=0.30, 95%CI 0.18 to 0.51, P<0.000 01), reduce the incidence of intracranial infection (Peto OR=0.47, 95%CI 0.25 to 0.87, P=0.02), and reduce mortality (Peto OR=0.45, 95%CI 0.27 to 0.76, P=0.003). The differences were statistically significant between two groups.ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that the combination with urokinase can improve curative effect of hypertension cerebral hemorrhage patients with external ventricular drainage. In reducing hemorrhage, intracranial infection and mortality, urokinase also has great curative effect. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
Objective To evaluate the effect of ultrasound guided percutaneous drainage on acute perforation of gastroduodenal ulcer in elderly patients. Methods The clinical features, treatments, and the curative effects of 86 elderly cases (≥65 years) of acute perforation of gastroduodenal ulcer in our hospital between January 2004 and October 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Twenty-one cases were treated by ultrasound guided percutaneous drainage (drainage group), and 65 cases were treated by exploring operation (operation group). Results Drainage group was cured and had no complications. In 15 patients which accepted recheck one month after drainage, gastroscope showed the ulcer healed in 12 cases, and improved in 3 cases. In operation group, 63 cases were cured and 2 cases died. Compared with the drainage group, there was no significant difference in cure rate (Pgt;0.05). However, 11 patients had operative complications in operation group, which was significantly more than that in the drainage group (Plt;0.05). In 45 patients which accepted recheck one month after operation, gastroscope showed the ulcer healed in 38 cases, and improved in 7 cases. Conclusion For elderly patients with acute perforation of gastroduodenal ulcer, if the patients do not fit for exploring operation, ultrasound guided percutaneous drainage is proved to be a simple, safe, and effective means.
ObjectiveTo study the efficacy and safety of early laparoscopic cholecystectomy with percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) in the treatment of elderly patients with high risk moderate acute cholecystitis.MethodsThe clinical data of 218 elderly patients with high risk moderate acute cholecystitis admitted to Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery in Dazhou Central Hospital from January 2015 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, including 112 cases in the PTGBD combined with early LC sequential treatment group (sequential treatment group) and 106 cases in the emergency LC group. In the sequential treatment group, PTGBD was performed first, and LC was performed 3–5 days later. The emergency LC group was treated with anti infection, antispasmodic, analgesia, and basic disease control immediately after admission, and LC was performed within 24 hours. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, conversion to laparotomy rate, postoperative catheter retention time, postoperative anal exhaust time, postoperative hospitalization time, hospitalization cost, incidence of incision infection, and incidence of complications above Dindo-Clavien level 2 were compared between the two groups to evaluate their clinical efficacy and safety.ResultsAll patients in the sequential treatment group were successfully treated with PTGBD, and the symptoms were significantly relieved within 72 hours. There were significant differences in the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, conversion to laparotomy rate, postoperative tube retention time, postoperative anal exhaust time, postoperative hospitalization time, incidence of incision infection, and the incidence of complications above Dindo-Clavien level 2 between the two groups (P<0.05), which were all better in the sequential treatment group, but the hospitalization cost of the sequential treatment group was higher than that of the emergency LC group (P<0.05). There were no cases of secondary operation and death in the 2 groups. After symptomatic treatment, the symptoms of all patients were relieved, without severe complications such as biliary injury and obstructive jaundice. All the 218 patients were followed up for 4–61 months, with an average of 35 months. During follow-up period, 7 patients in the sequential treatment group had postoperative complications, and complications were occurred in 13 patients in the emergency LC group.ConclusionPTGBD is the first choice for elderly high risk moderate acute cholecystitis patients with poor systemic condition and high risk of emergency surgery, but it has the disadvantage of relatively high medical cost.
ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) combined with early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in the treatment of elderly patients with high-risk acute cholecystitis.MethodsThe clinical data of 128 elderly patients with high-risk acute cholecystitis admitted to Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery in Dazhou Central Hospital from January 2015 to January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 62 patients underwent PTGBD combined with early LC treatment (PTGBD+early LC group), 66 patients underwent PTGBD combined with delayed LC treatment (PTGBD+delayed LC group). Comparison was performed on the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, conversion to laparotomy rate, postoperative indwelling time, postoperative hospitalization time, total hospitalization time, and complication.ResultsPTGBD was successfully performed in all patients, and the symptoms were relieved within 72 hours. There was no significant difference in operative time, intraoperative blood loss, conversion to laparotomy rate, postoperative indwelling time, postoperative hospitalization time, and total complication rate between the two groups (P>0.05), but the total hospitalization time of the PTGBD+early LC group was shorter than that of the PTGBD+delayed LC group (P<0.001). There was no second operation and death in both two groups. The 128 patients were followed-up for 2–50 months with a average of 19 months. Results of follow-up after operation showed that the patients did not complain of obvious abdominal pain, abdominal distension, chills, fever, jaundice, and other discomforts.ConclusionsFor elderly patients with high-risk acute cholecystitis, early LC is a safe and effective treatment for patients with good overall condition after PTGBD. It can not only shorten the total hospitalization time, but also significantly shorten the time of tube-taking and improve the quality of life of patients. It has important clinical application value.
Objective To observe and evaluate the efficacy of continuous drainage with intravenous catheter in the treatment of breast abscess infected by methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and to explore the best treatment methods. Methods Sixty cases of breast abscess infected by MRSA were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into continuous drainage group and puncture drainage group according to the treatment. Continuous drainage with 14G intravenous catheter and intermittent aspiration with 20 mL syringe were performed to treat the breast abscesses in the continuous drainage group (n=36) and puncture drainage group (n=24), respectively. Meanwhile, sensitive antibiotics were used according to the results of susceptibility test. The therapeutic effects of the 2 groups were compared. Results There were no significant differences in baseline data between continuous drainage group and puncture drainage group (P>0.05). There was no significant differences of cure rate between the two groups (P=0.717). Compared with the puncture drainage group, the continuous drainage group showed shorter period of time to heal the breast abscess (P=0.001), shorter period of time to control the ache (P=0.038), less punctures (P<0.001) and more daily volume of drainage (P<0.001). No significant differences were found in the period of time to control the fever between the two groups (P=0.127). Conclusions Continuous drainage with intravenous catheter can shorten the course of disease, reduce the suffering of patients, reduce the difficulty of hospital infection prevention and control. It’s an ideal choice for the treatment of breast abscess infected by MRSA.

ObjectiveTo explore the curative effect and the appropriate time of sequentially with minimal invasive methods in treatment of elderly acute calculous cholecystitis patients combined with organ dysfunction syndrome (ODS). MethodsClinical data of 67 elderly acute calculous cholecystitis patients combined with ODS who received treatment in our hospital from December 2010 to December 2013 were collected retrospectively. All of the 67 patients were treated with percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) under the guidance of B ultrasound or CT at first, as well as systemic anti infective therapy, and then underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) sequentially when situation of body got well. ResultsAll of the 67 patients (100%) were treated with PTGBD successfully, but only 65 patients finished the latter related test. For the 65 patients, compared with before PTGBD, the patient's pain, abdominal distention, vomiting, leukocyte count, neutrophil ratio, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, total bilirubin, C-reactive protein, and temperature had gotten obviously better on 1 and 4 d after PTGBD (P<0.05). There were 3 patients dropped LC, 2 patients transferred to mini-incision cholecystectomy, and the rest of 60 patients underwent LC successfully. All of the patients recovery and discharged from hospital in 2-7 days after operation. ConclusionSequentially mini-invasive method is a simple, easy, safe, effective, mini trauma, and quick recovery method for the elderly acute cholecystitis patients combined with the ODS.
