The hospital information structure, which is made up of various medical business systems, is suffering from the problems of the "information isolated island". Medical business systems in the hospital are mutually isomerous and difficult to become a whole. How to realize the internal barrier-free interaction of the patients effective medical information in the hospital and further to complete the area sharing of patients longitudinal diagnosis and treatment information has become a question having to be solved urgently in the process of healthcare informatization. Based on the HL7 standard, this paper refers to the IHE technical framework, expounds the overall structure of the interaction in the hospital internal and area sharing of medical information with the medical information exchange platform. The paper also gives the details of the whole process of the complete display of the discrete patient health information using Portal technology, which is saved in the business systems in different hospitals. It interacts internally through the information exchange platform and at last stores the information in the regional cinical data repository (CDR).
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of X-ray guided access to the extrahepatic segment of the main portal vein (PV) to create a transjugular extrahepatic portacaval shunt (TEPS). Methods 5F pigtail catheter was inserted into the main PV as target catheter by percutaneous transhepatic path under ultrasound guidance. The RUPS-100 puncture system was inserted into the inferior vena cava (IVC) by transjugular path under ultrasound guidance. Fluency covered stent was deployed to create the extrahepatic portacaval shunt after puncturing the target catheter from the IVC under the X-ray guidance, then shunt venography was performed. Enhanced CT of the abdomen helped identify and quantify the patency of the shunt and the presence of hemoperitoneum. Results The extrahepatic portacaval shunts were created successfully by only 1 puncture in 6 pigs. No extravasation was observed in shunt venography. One pig died of anesthesia on the day of operation. The extrahepatic portacaval shunts were failed in 2 pigs 3 days after the operation (one was occluded and the other one was narrowed by 80%). The extrahepatic portacaval shunts were occluded 2 weeks after the operation in the remaining 3 pigs. The shunts were out of the liver and no hemoperitoneum was identified at necropsy in the 6 pigs. Conclusion TEPS is technically safe and feasible under the X-ray guidance.
ObjectiveTo investigate impact of splenectomy plus pericardial devascularization on liver hemodynamics and liver function for liver cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension. MethodsThe internal diameter, maximum velocity, minimum velocity, mean velocity, and flow volume of portal vein and hepatic artery of 42 cases of liver cirrhosis with portal hypertension were measured by Doppler ultrasonic instrument on day 1 before operation and on day 7 after operation. The free portal pressures at different phases (after open abdomen, after splenic artery ligation, after splenectomy, and after devasculanrization) were read from the disposable pressure sensor. Twenty-four healthy people through physical examination were selected as control. Results① The free portal pressure of liver cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension was decreased from (29.12±1.40) mm Hg after open abdomen to (22.71±1.21) mm Hg after splenic artery ligation, and further decreased to (21.32±1.12) mm Hg after splenectomy, but increased to (22.42±1.15) mm Hg after devasculanrization, the difference was statisticly different (all P < 0.01). ② Compared with the healthy people, for the liver cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension, the internal diameter, maximum velocity, minimum velocity, and flow volume of portal vein were significantly enlarged (all P < 0.01), which of hepatic artery were significantly reduced (all P < 0.01) on day 1 before operation; On day 7 after operation, the internal diameter of portal vein was significantly reduced (P < 0.01), the maximum velocity, minimum velocity, and mean velocity of portal vein were significantly enlarged (all P < 0.01), but the internal diameter of hepatic artery was significantly reduced (P < 0.01), the maximum velocity, minimum velocity, mean velocity, and flow volume of hepatic artery were significantly enlarged (all P < 0.01). For the liver cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension, compared with the values on day 1 before operation, the internal diameter and the flow volume of portal vein were significantly reduced (all P < 0.01) on day 7 after operation; the internal diameter, maximum velocity, minimum velocity, mean velocity, and flow volume of hepatic artery were significantly enlarged (all P < 0.01) on day 7 after operation. ③ The Child-Pugh classification of liver function between before and after surgery had no significant difference (χ2=1.050, P > 0.05). ④ No death and no hepatic encephalopathy occurred, no thrombosis of splenic vein or portal vein was observed on day 7 after surgery. Conclusionsplenectomy plus pericardial devascularization could decrease portal vein pressure and reduce blood flow of portal vein, while increase blood flow of hepatic artery, it doesn't affect liver function.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to study the effect of splenopneumopexy for patients with portal hypertension in children. METHODS From March 1993 to April 1998, splenopneumopexy was performed on six children with portal hypertension. Doppler ultrasound and radionuclide were used to demonstrate the portopulmonary shunt after operation. RESULTS The bleeding from the esophageal varices was controlled and the esophageal varices were eliminated gradually. The symptoms pertaining to hypertension were disappeared. The patency of the shunt was maintained without the formation of thrombosis. No pulmonary complication was observed. CONCLUSION The results indicated that splenopneumopexy was a safe and effective procedure for patients with portal hypertension in children.
42 Wistar rats were divided into three groups at random, liver cirrhosis (LC), portal vein stricture (PVS) and sham operation (SO) group. The changes of barrier capability of gastric mucosa in portal hypertensive rats were observed. The results demonstrated: the splanchnic blood flow of the portal hypertensive rats increased, as compared with the normal control group (Ｐ＜0.001), but actually gastric mucosa was under the condition of ischemia. Mucosa of gastric wall glycoprotein and PGE2 of gastric mucosa decreased, as compared with the normal control (Ｐ＜0.01); and more seriously decreased in cirrhotic portal hypertensive rats, there was no significant difference about amount of the basal acid secretion (BAS) among the three groups, but the amount of H＋ backdiffusion (H＋BD) was obviously increased, as compared with the normal control group (Ｐ＜0.001). The amount of H＋BD of cirrhotic portal hypertensive rats was the highest among this three groups. The results suggest that the barrier capability of gastric mucosa with portal hypertension is lower than that of the normal control group and much lower with cirrhotic portal hypertensive rats. The portal hypertensive gastropathy is associated with the lower capability of defense of gastric mucosa. The condition of liver function contributes to the change of barrier capability of gastric mucosa.
Objective To explore the influence of cirrhotic portal hypertension and its complications on liver transplantation. Methods The literatures of the recent years on influence of hepatic cirrhotic portal hypertension on liver transplantation were reviewed. Results Splenomegaly, hypersplenism, portal vein thrombosis, portosystemic shunt and collateral flow in cirrhotic patients will increase the difficulty of liver transplantation and lead to more postoperative complications. Appropriate handling of these conditions can achieve a higher success rate of liver transplantation. Conclusion Correct management of end-stage cirrhotic portal hypertension and its complications can expand the indications of liver transplantation and improve long-term survival rates.
Objective This experiment is to compare the effect of two operations “disconnection” and “ligation” of separation of gastroesophageal peripharal blood vessel in portal hypertension and provide base of rational for selecting reasonable method of separation of gastroesophageal peripheral blood vessel in portal hypertension.MethodsFortyeight SD rats were induced to model of liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension by CCL4 . They were divided at random into 3 groups (16 rats each): disconnection group, ligation group and pseudooperation group. There was also a normal comparison group with 6 normal SD rats (laparotomy only). Thirty days and 100 days after the operation, 8 rats were killed respectively in every group except for the normal comparison group. Thirty days after the operation, the rats of normal comparison group were killed. The adhesion around gastric cardia and fundus with the building of new branch blood vessels, and the relative average blood vessel amounts and average vein caliber changes in submucosa layer and lamina propria layer of esophagus inferior segment were observed. ResultsIn the observation of adhesion around gastroesophageal and the building of new branch blood vessels after the operations, disconnection group was more marked than ligation group. In the observation of relative average blood vessel amounts and average vein calibers changes in submucosa layer and lamina propria layer of esophagus inferior segment, pseudooperation group was more marked than in normal comparison group in different time（P＜0.05）,and 30 days after the operations, disconnection and ligation groups were less serious than pseudooperation group（P＜0.05）. One hundred days after the operation, the two observation indexes of all the groups were more serious than before, and result of disconnection group was nearly close to pseudooperation group（Pgt;0.05）, but ligation group was still less serious than pseudooperation group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Both the “disconnection” and “ligation” operation have the same rank effect of separation of gastroesophageal peripharal blood vessel in short time. But the “ligation” operation makes less trauma, postoperative adhesion and vascularizition, then the separation effect of the “ligation” operation may sustain a relatively long time.
Objective To introduce the mechanisms of graft injuries after small-for-size liver transplantation and protective measures. Methods Recently relevant literatures were reviewed and summarized. Results Portal hypertension after small-for-size liver transplantation induces mechanical injuries as well as hepatic sinusoidal microcirculation disturbance and cytokines release, which worsened the injuries. Decrease portal pressure by surgery or drug could improve grafts function. ConclusionComprehending the mechanisms of graft injuries will contribute a lot for the living donor liver transplantation.
Objective To decrease the operative difficulty, with the purpose of looking for an orthotopic liver autotransplantation model which not only materializes the liver transplantation but also possesses higher survival rate. Methods This model was established via portal vein perfusion in thirty rats, and from which the result of the liver after perfusion, the operative time and the survival rate were observed. Liver tissues were researched at 24 h after operation under the light microscope. Results This model was easy to be perfused, the operative time was (48±3.0) min and the survival rate was 96.7% (29/30). The structure of hepatic tissue was basically normal with a little hydropic degeneration under the light microscope. Few erythrocytes residual occurred in the interlobular arteries under the light microscope. Conclusion The orthotopic liver autotransplantation model via portal vein perfusion has an exclusively blockage pattern which possesses a higher survival rate. It prevents the injury of immunological rejection and purely reflects the hepatic ischemia-reperfusion. But it is better to be applied in the non-hepatic artery anastomosis or the research nothing to do with the hepatic artery because the hepatic artery does not have sufficient perfusion.
ObjectiveTo evaluate clinical efficacy of the modified Sugiura procedure with cardia transection in treatment of recurrent portal hypertension with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. MethodsFrom January 2007 to January 2015, there were 28 cases of recurrent portal hypertension with upper gastrointestinal bleeding were treated by the modified Sugiura procedure with cardia transection in The Second People's Hospital of Yichang and The Zigui County People's Hospital, collecting the clinical data of them and then summarizing the therapeutic effect. ResultsAll cases underwent surgery successfully with no operative death. The operative time was 120-300 minutes with an average of 160 minutes. About surgical blood loss was 100-500 mL, with an average of 210 mL. Two cases suffered from postoperative gastrointestinal bleeding, 6 cases suffered from postoperative gastric dysfunction, and no one suffered from anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, and portal vein thrombosis. Three cases died in reason of liver failure and hepatic coma. There were 24 cases were followed up for 6-60 months, with the median of 33 months. No recurrence of gastrointestinal bleeding happened during the follow-up period. Sixteen cases underwent gastroscopy in 6 months after surgery, according to the results, the clinical effect was fine. For grade of varicose veinsm, there were 14 cases of grade GⅠ and 2 cases of grade GⅡ. For shape of varicose veins, there were 11 cases of grade F1 and 5 cases of grade F2.
