Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of the Guang’an Omicron epidemic and summarize the management experiences and practices in pandemic prevention and control of major infectious diseases.Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on patients infected with coronavirus disease (COVID-19), afterwards treated and observed in the isolation ward of Guang’an People’s Hospital and the shelter of Guang’an City from May 9 to June 26, 2022. The characteristics of patients at different age stages and the related factors affecting the severity, re-positive and negative conversion was analyzed. Results Finally 1 278 patients were collected, including 508 males and 770 females, with an average age of 41.3±22.6 years. Among them, 1 054 patients were asymptomatic carriers. The overall severe rate was 0.86%, the severe rate of the high-risk group was 3.06%. The median negative conversion time was 10.0 days and re-positive rate was 7.36%. Patients aged>60 years were 2.589 times more likely to have a longer negative conversion time than those aged≤60 years (95%CI 1.921-3.489, P<0.001). Conclusion The clinical characteristics of Guang’an COVID-19 epidemic are mainly that the elderly with high risk factors are more likely to develop severe cases, have longer clearance time, and re-positve is more likely to occur.
Objective To identify the high risk factors related to postpartum suicide. Methods A total of 40 women with postpartum depression who had suicidal act or ideation were included in the study. They were evaluated by the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), the Life Events Scale (LES) and the Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS), and compared with healthy postpartum women. The multi-element gradual regression analysis was performed to identify the high risk factors. Results Such factors as prior history of depression, negative life events within the previous half year, absence of social support, disease of mothers or infants, and conjugal relationship were significantly correlated with postpartum suicide. Conclusion It might be helpful to reduce the incidence of postpartum suicide by prenatal mental intervention and postpartum crisis intervention.
ObjectiveTo analyze the risk factors of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients after abdominal surgery. MethodsThe clinical data of 2 286 patients over 60 years old after abdominal surgery were retrospectively analyzed, which were divided into non-POCD group with 2 248 patients and POCD group with 38 patients. The influencing factors of POCD in elderly patients after abdominal surgery, including the age, gender, anesthetic way, the premedication, cormobided with lung or heart disease, diabetes, jaundice, anemia or hypoproteinemia, the duration of surgery, and postoperative analgesia protocols, were analyzed between two groups. ResultsThe age, anesthetic way, cormobided with lung or heart disease, diabetes, jaundice, with or without continuous postoperative effective analgesia, and surgery duration over four hours were relevant with POCD (Plt;0.05), while gender, the premedication, and preexisted anemia or hypoproteinemia were not relevant with that (Pgt;0.05). ConclusionAge over 70 years, general anaesthesia, cormobided with lung or heart disease, diabetes, jaundice, surgery duration over four hours, and incomplete postoperative analgesia are the risk factors of POCD after abdominal surgery.
Objective To investigate the correlated risk factors of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) after the laparoscopic surgery. Methods Clinical records of 16 patients with DVT and 148 patients without DVT after laparoscopic surgery in Huashan hospital from Mar.2007 to Jan.2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were several factors which could induce DVT after the laparoscopic surgery, including operation time >1 h 〔OR=4.15 (95% CI: 1.36-12.68)〕, operative site located in hypogastrium 〔OR=2.94 (95% CI: 1.07-8.08)〕 and the number of high risk factors ≥3 〔OR=3.94 (95% CI: 1.38-11.23)〕. Conclusions The long time of operation, hypogastric operation of laparoscopic surgery and high risk factors could induce DVT. Prevention measures should be made in preoperative period.
Clinical scientists have paid more and more attention to the acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS), a severe complication after thoracotomy, for its high mortality rate. Compared with other surgical patients, patients who received thoracotomy often have a worse cardiopulmonary function and are prone to suffering from ARDS. Surgical treatment or injury, massive blood transfusion, respiratory tract infection, improper fluid replacement and ventilation are probable reasons to cause ARDS. Mechanical ventilation is an important treatment for ARDS,but ventilation with lungprotective strategies was proved to be the only therapy which can improve the prognosis of patients with ARDS. At present, thinking highly of and promoting the perioperative management, lessening surgical injury and active prevention are still very important measures to reduce the mortality after thoracotomy. This article is aimed to review the high risk factors of ARDS after thoracotomy as well as its treatment.
Objective To analyze death causes and relevant factors in victims of Wenchuan earthquake.Methods Medical records of 27 dead patients admitted to W est China Hospital during the first 30 days after Wenchuan earthquake were analyzed retrospectively.Patient census data,diagnoses,dispositions,and prognoses were collected. Results A total of 2702 patients with earthquake related injuries were admitted to West China Hospital.The overall mortality rate was 1%(27/2702 patients).The death were associated with age≥70.severe cerebral injuries and severe underlying illness.Mortality rate was highest in aged patients with comorbidities.Conclusions Insufficient pre-hospital treatment and inappropriate transfer procedure may contribute to the early death.Complicated with comorbidities is the leading cause of late death.Earlier involvement of intensivist in medical intervention in such a disaster is demanded.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress of osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) following femoral intertrochanteric fractures in adults.MethodsRelevant literature at home and abroad was extensively reviewed to summarize the pathogenesis, high-risk factors, and treatment of ONFH after femoral intertrochanteric fracture in adults.ResultsONFH after femoral intertrochanteric fracture mostly occurs within 2 years after operation, with a lower incidence. At present, it is believed that comminuted and large displacement fractures caused by high-energy injuries, fracture line close to the base of neck, excessive external rotation deformity, improper intramedullary nail entry points, and rough intraoperative manipulating may injury the deep branch of the medial circumflex femoral artery, causing ONFH. Hip replacement is the main treatment for necrosis, which can achieve good results.ConclusionAddressing the above risks, excessive external rotation, overstretching, and rough manipulating should be avoided. Anatomical reduction should be performed during the operation, the nail entry point should be accurate and avoid repeated drilling and thermally bone necrosis.
目的 探讨层流手术室动态空气菌落数超标的高危因素。 方法 回顾分析2010年3月-2011年11月168台次特别洁净层流手术室动态空气样品细菌培养结果的资料,依据层流手术室动态环境下空气样品是否超过10个菌落形成单位(CFU)/m3将168例空气样品细菌培养的资料分别命名为超标组和正常组。超标组有56台次,正常组有112台次。将超标组与正常组就有关手术持续的时间、参与手术的医务人员数量、参观人数、手术过程中开门的次数、是否为污染手术、手术及麻醉设备是否在手术过程中有搬动、是否为接台手术、患者术前1 d是否更衣洗澡以及麻醉方式等因素进行分析比较。 结果 层流手术室动态空气菌落数超标与参观手术的人数、术中开门次数、手术类型、术中有无设备搬动及患者术前1 d是否进行更衣洗澡等因素有关(P<0.05),而与手术持续时间、参加手术的人员数量、是否接台手术及麻醉方式等无关(P>0.05)。 结论 参观手术的人数>3人、术中开门次数>10次、手术类型为污染手术、术中有设备搬动及患者术前1 d未进行沐浴更衣是层流手术室动态空气菌落数超标的高危因素。
