ObjectiveTo investigate the management methods of drug repercussion and its intervention measures in the Burn and Plastic Surgery Department by analyzing the reasons for drug repercussion. MethodBased on the drug repercussion data provided by the computer information center, we analyzed the common reasons and the status quo of drug repercussion. Active intervention measures were carried out, and real-time supervision and feedback of drug repercussion management were also performed. We compared such repercussion indexes before intervention (between May and September 2013) and after intervention (between October 2013 and February 2014):number of drug repercussion patients, times of drug repercussion, amount of money involved in drug repercussion, ratio of drug repercussion and dispensing and comprehensive ranking of the drug repercussion in the whole hospital. ResultsAfter intervention, the ranking of the causes of drug repercussion changed obviously. Changing orders casually dropped to the 3rd of the rank, and changing the department based on necessity rose from the 4th to the 2nd. All the indexes (including the times, number, and amount of money of drug of repercussion, and the ratio of repercussion and dispensing and compreheasive rank) reduced significantly (P<0.05). ConclusionsActualizing active intervention measures redounds to reducing drug repercussion, standardizing clinical use of drugs, insuring safety, and advancing the satisfaction of patients and quality of medical nursing.
To explore the effectiveness and methods of intervention assistant operation in the treatment of phalanx closed fracture combined with artery crisis. Methods Between August 2002 and December 2008, 24 cases (31 toes) of phalanx closed fracture combined with artery crisis were treated. There were 17 males (22 toes) and 7 females (9 toes), aged from 16 to 62 years (mean, 38 years). The causes of injury included crush and bruise (20 cases), traffic accident (3 cases),and machine twist (1 case). The locations were the first toe (19 toes), the second toe (10 toes), and the third toe (2 toes). The period between injury and hospital ization was 1-10 hours (mean, 6.8 hours). Phalanx angiography was performed by using venous indwell ing needle for dorsal is pedis artery and posterior tibial artery puncture; according to angiography results, proper treatment could be done, then the constrast medium was injected to the artery to observe the blood supply. According to different types and locations of fracture, Kirschner wire and plate were choosen to fix fracture after the blood supply were recovered. Results Two cases (2 toes) received amputation due to necrosis at 4 days and 6 days after interventional therapy, respectively. Twenty-two cases (29 toes) survived. Incision healed primarily in 21 cases. Exudation occurred at wound of 1 case and was cured at 3 weeks after dressing change. Twenty-two cases (29 toes) were followed up 1-6 years (mean, 3.5 years) postoperatively. Two cases (3 toes) felt cool or anaesthesia and could not tolerate even in cold environment. The other toes had no senses of cold pain and paresthesia. Two cases (2 toes) had nonunion and achieved fracture heal ing after grafting bone. The mean union time was 4.5 months (range, 3-6 months) in other cases. Conclusion Intervention assistant operation is an effective measure in the treatment of phalanx closed fracture combined with artery crisis.
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 demonstrate the effectiveness of operative resection for patients with huge hemangioma. METHODS: Eight cases were adopted in this study, including 5 males and 3 females. Among them, 5 cases with hemangioma on the face and neck, 1 case on the back, 1 case on the buttock, and 1 case on the leg. The maximal size of the hemangioma was 31.2 cm x 9.1 cm and the minimal size was 27.3 cm x 6.0 cm. Before operation, angiography was taken to find out the size of tumor. During operation, intervention-embolism and circumferential suture were carried out to control bleeding so that resection of tumor was practicable. RESULTS: There had been successful result in all the cases with huge hemangioma. No recurrence were found with following up 8 months to 4 years(averaged 13 months). CONCLUSION: Angiography of the hemangioma is important in providing the informations for the operation design. The intervention-embolism and circumferential suture can control and reduce the bleeding in operation. Combine of these techniques is essential for the treatment of huge hemangioma.

All of the patients underwent arterial chemotherapy infusion and embolization; dilatation and evacuation was performed under the monitoring of B-scan ultrasound; and the patients received intensive care. ResultsAll of the 82 patients with uterine incision pregnancy were cured via proper treatment and care. ConclusionUterine artery embolization is an effective treatment method for pregnancy incision, which has advantages like minimally invasion, quick effect, and uterus preservation. Strengthen psychological care and close observation of the disease, as well as health guidance are important for the success of incision pregnancy treatment.
With the development of mobile technology and smartphones, the mobile health intervention project emerges, attracting grant fundings and creating new chances in healthcare. However, there is still few evidence to confirm the effectiveness of the mobile-health intervention, a possible cause being the lack of quality of research reporting, which needs to be improved for better identification, duplication and promotion of research projects. This paper interprets and analyses of the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials of Electronic and Mobile Health Application and onLine TeleHealth (CONSORT-EHEALTH), in an effort to provide a reference for conducting mobile health related controlled trials research.
Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of bronchial artery embolization ( BAE) for massive hemoptysis due to bronchiectasis.Methods 205 patients with massive hemoptysis were treated with bronchial artery embolization using coils, polyvinyl alcohol ( PVA) microspheres, line segmen, and gelatin sponge after the site of bleeding or the abnormal arteries were identified by arteriography. Super selective bronchial artery embolization was performed with a coaxial microcatheter inserted into the bronchial artery. Results BAE was successfully performed in 205 cases with massive hemoptysis ( left and right bronchial artery embolization in 35 cases, left bronchial artery embolization in 20 cases, right bronchial artery embolization in 126 cases, common bronchial artery embolization in 22 cases, right inferior phrenic artery embolization in 2 cases) . Of 205 patients, 169 were cured, 24 were relieved with a success rate of 94.1% . Long termcumulative hemoptysis nonrecurrence rates was 82.4% . 23 patients developed post embolization syndrome characterized by mild fever and chest pain and ended with spontaneous recovery without special management. No severe complications including spinal cord injury or dystopia embolization were observed. Conclusions Bronchial arterial embolization interventional therapy is a rapid, safe and effective method in the treatment of massive hemoptysis due to bronchiectasis.
The interaction mechanism between mental disorders and diabetes is complex, involving genetics, endocrine metabolism, inflammation, oxidative stress and other aspects, which makes it difficult to treat patients with mental disorders complicated by diabetes. Such patients mostly use drugs and non-drug interventions to relieve symptoms of mental disorders and improve blood sugar levels, but the mechanism of mental disorders and diabetes needs to be systematically summarized and needs practical means to intervene. This article starts with the pathogenesis of diabetes and then describes the interaction mechanism of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression and diabetes in detail. Finally, the intervention measures for patients with mental disorders complicated by diabetes are summarized, which aims to provide a reference for medical staff engaged in related work.
As more and more issues have emerged in organ transplantion cases, there is an increasing dispute about the definition of death: whether the criteria of cardiopulmonary death or brain death should be applied. The conflict between rights and obligations in brain death and organ transplantion is becoming ever evident, and there is a need for clarity on the issue of death and organ transplantion. This needs to come through legislation, which would be the most economical and effective intervention to provide this clarity. The authors believe that the National People’s Congress of China (NPC), the Standing Committee of NPC, the State Council of China and the Supreme People’s Court of China may get involved in the legislation for issues related to brain death and organ transplantion. As for the selection of decrees related to brain death and organ transplantion, all provinces, autonomous regions and centrally-governed municipalities can not exercise corresponding local legislative power except for special economic zones. After brain death and organ transplant related laws, administrative regulations, local decrees, autonomous decrees and special decrees have been settled, relevant executive legislation may be enacted. During such a legislative procedure, pilot programs can be adopted so as to enhance the applicability and success rate of the legislation of brain death and organ transplant.
ObjectiveTo explore the corresponding intervention measures to reduce maternal mortality rate by analyzing the causes and problems of maternal deaths. MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted to analyze all cases of maternal mortality from January 2005 to June 2013 in West China Second University Hospital. ResultsAmong the 14 cases of maternal deaths, the main diseases of the patients were pregnancy complicated with heart disease, hypertensive disorders, obstetric hemorrhage, amniotic fluid embolism and ectopic pregnancy. Four cases got prescriptive prenatal care during pregnancy, accounting for 28.6% (4/14), while 10 cases did not, accounting for 71.4% (10/14). Six patients died in prenatal period which accounted for 42.9% (6/14), while 8 died in postnatal period which accounted for 57.1% (6/14) and 5 died within 24 hours which accounted for 62.5% (5/8). Seven underwent cesarean section and 6 fetuses survived. Two went through trial of labor and no fetus survived. There was no ordered postmortem. ConclusionIntensifying education of prenatal care during pregnancy, improving quality of obstetrical service and diathesis of healthcare professionals, strengthening the supervision of high-risk pregnancy and timely choosing the time and manner of delivery are the main measures to decrease the maternal mortality.
