目的评价喉罩或单腔气管内插管在胸腔镜下胸交感神经链切断术的应用效果。 方法选择80例行胸腔镜下胸交感神经链切断术的手汗症患者,采用计算机随机法将患者分为A、B两组,每组各40例。其中A组男20例、女20例,平均年龄24岁;B组男21例、女19例,平均年龄23岁。A组使用喉罩通气,B组使用单腔气管内导管,均应用小潮气量较快频率正压通气及间歇人工气胸。观察两组麻醉期间各时点心率(HR)、平均动脉压(MAP)、呼气末二氧化碳分压(PetCO2)、动脉血氧饱和度(SpO2)、心电图(ECG)的变化。同时记录喉罩/单腔导管置入时间、CO2充气时间、手术时间、术中术后不良反应和并发症。 结果两组患者手术顺利,无并发症。A组喉罩/插管置入时间和喉罩/单腔管呛咳、术后咽喉疼痛发生率低于B组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。B组MAP、HR水平在T2(喉罩/单腔管置入后)和T7(苏醒后拨喉罩/单腔管时)明显高于T1(麻醉诱导完成),差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);A组MAP、HR水平在T2和T7时亦明显低于B组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。所有患者术中ECG、SpO2和PetCO2无明显变化。 结论喉罩或单腔气管内插管结合间歇的人工气胸都能满足胸交感神经切断术的操作需要,喉罩具有更稳定的血流动力学状态和更高的安全性。
ObjectiveTo study the clinical results of Mini Maze procedure in atrial fibrillation patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function.MethodsFrom June 2010 to December 2017, 86 atrial fibrillation patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function received Mini Maze procedure including 54 males and 32 females, with an average age of 60.7±5.9 years. Among them, 12 were with paroxysmal, 27 were with persistent and 47 were with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation. The mean atrial fibrillation duration was 6.5±4.8 years. CHA2DS2-VASc score was 2.2±1.1. The mean diameter of left atrium was 46.9±3.8 mm. The mean diameter of left ventricle was 51.7±4.6 mm. The preoperative ejection fraction was 42.2%±4.7%. All patients received Mini Maze procedure after general anesthesia. The ablation included 3 annular ablations and 3 linear ablations. The left atrial appendage was excised by Endo-Gia. Ablation of Marshall ligament and epicardial autonomic ganglions were made by an ablation pen.ResultsEighty-six patients successfully completed the procedure without transition to thoracotomy. There was no death during the perioperative period. Seventy-seven patients (89.5%) maintained sinus rhythm at discharge. Eighty patients were followed up for 27.2±12.1 months and 72 patients maintained sinus rhythm. The overall postoperative left ventricular ejection fraction was 47.1%±6.2%. The ejection fraction of the postoperative sinus rhythm group was 48.2%±5.8%, and the ejection fraction of the non-sinus group was 41.6%±5.8% (P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed a left atrial diameter (HR=1.485, 95%CI 1.157-1.906, P<0.05) and an increase in ejection fraction over 10% (HR=18.800, 95%CI 1.674-189.289, P<0.05) were closely related to postoperative recurrence. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the recurrence rate of atrial fibrillation was significantly lower in patients with an increase in postoperative ejection fraction over 10% (P<0.05).ConclusionMini Maze procedure is safe and effective in the treatment of atrial fibrillation patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction, which helps to improve left ventricular function to prevent the vicious circle of atrial fibrillation and heart failure.
Objective To elucidate the clinical features and treatment of parapneumonic effusions ( PPE) . Methods Ninety-seven patients were analyzed retrospectively in Guangzhou First Municipal People’s Hospital fromJanuary 2004 to July 2008. The data of 54 patients with complicated parapneumonic effusion ( CPPE) and 9 cases with empyema were compared with 49 patients with tuberculosis pleural effusions. Results Of 97 cases, 34 patients with uncomplicated parapneumonic effusion ( UPPE) were treated with antibiotics only, whose hospitalization time was ( 14. 8 ±7. 6) days, and 27 cases were cured ( 79. 4% ) . Of 54 CPPE patients, 42 were treated with antibiotics and pleural space drainage with central venous catheter, whose hospitalization time was ( 21. 7 ±13. 0) days, and 32 were cured ( 76. 2% ) . Another12 CPPE patients were treated with interapleural urokinase and drainage from the chest tube, whose hospitalization time was ( 22. 5 ±9. 3) days, and 8 were cured ( 66. 7% ) . Nine cases with empyema were rinsed the pleural with metronidazole solution, whose hospitalization time was ( 25. 7 ±17. 4) days, and 8 were cured( 89. 0% ) . Compared with the tuberculous pleurisy patients, most CPPE and empyema occurred in middle and old aged patients with an average age of ( 63. 3 ±19. 3) years. Polykaryocyte and lactate dehydrogenase increased significantly. Adenosine deaminase ( ADA) was lt; 45 U/L in most UPPE and empyema patients, but was gt; 45 U/L in 7 cases ( 11% ) . Conclusions UPPE is simple and preferably treated with antibiotics alone. While CPPE and empyema should be drainaged as early as possible, and the low-dose urokinase may be helpful. The level of ADA can not absolutely distinguish parapneumonic effusion from tuberculous pleural effusion.
Objective To investigate the clinical outcomes of subxiphoid video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy for myasthenia gravis. Methods The clinical data of the 85 patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy for myasthenia gravis in Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University between January 2014 and July 2016 were studied. Subxiphoid approach video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy (SXVT) and through traditional unilateral approach video-assisted thymectomy (TVAT) were compared. The clinical outcomes of SXVT and TVAT were compared. Results There was no surgical death and no statistical difference between the two groups in drainage time, postoperative volume of drainage, postoperative hospital stay and bleeding volume during operation (P>0.05). However, the acute chest pain after surgery, as well as the postoperative chest pain, and operative time were less in the the SXVT group than that in the TVAT group (P<0.05). Conclusion SXVT for myasthenia gravis is safe and executable. It can alleviate intercostal neuralgia and abnormal chest wall feeling. And it should be considered in the treatment of myasthenia gravis.
