[Effect of ligustrazine hydrochloride on coagulation reaction and inflammation reaction in single valve replacement patients with rheumatic heart disease undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass].

OBJECTIVE: To observe the protection effect of Ligustrazine Hydrochloride (LH) on coagulation reaction and inflammation reaction in single valve replacement patients with rheumatic heart disease undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). METHODS: Totally 40 patients undergoing single valve replacement were recruited in the study and randomly assigned to the two groups, the treatment group and the control group, 20 in each group. In treatment group LH (3 mg/kg) was intravenously infused from the jugular vein. LH (3 mg/kg) was also added in the CPB priming. In the control group LH was replaced by equal amount of normal saline. Endothelial micro-particles (EMP) count was detected before CPB, 30 min after CPB, 1 h and 24 h after CPB finished. The coagulation reaction time (R), coagulation time (K), clotting formation velocity (alpha angle), maximum amplitude (MA), coagulation index (CI), platelet (PLT), hypersensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP), IL-6, and IL-10 were detected before CPB, 1 h and 24 h after CPB finished. RESULTS: There was no statistical difference in aorta arresting time, period of CPB, post-operative drainage volume, plasma transfusion volume, post-operative respirator assistant time, and hospitalization time between the two groups (P >0.05). Compared with pre-CPB in the same group, the count of EMP was much higher at 30 min after CPB and 1 h after CPB finished (P < 0.01). R and K, hs-CRP, IL-6, and IL-10 increased at 1 h and 24 h after CPB finished (P <0.01,P < 0.05). The alpha angle,.MA, CI, and PLT decreased 1 h after CPB finished (P <0.01). The a angle increased, while CI and PLT decreased 24 h after CPB finished (P <0.05). Compared with the control group in the same period, the count of EMP was lower in the treatment group 30 min after CPB and 1 h after CPB finished (P <0. 05, P <0. 01). R and K values obviously decreased in treatment group 1 hour after CPB finished (P <0. 05), while a angle, MA, CI, and PLT increased (P <0. 05, P <0. 01). hs-CRP and IL-6 decreased in the treatment group 1 h and 24 h after CPB finished (P <0.05), while IL-10 increased (P <0.05). The count of PLT increased 24 h after CPB finished in the treatment group (P <0. 05). CONCLUSION: LH had certain protection effect on the vascular endothelium undergoing CPB, and lower excessive activation of coagulation reaction and inflammation reaction in patients undergoing CPB.

[The effect of two methods guided fluid therapy to the patient undergoing open gastrointestinal surgery].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of central venous blood oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and venous-arterial PCO2 (P(cv-a)CO2) guided fluid therapy on tissue perfusion, gastrointestinal function recovering and outcome of the patients who undergoing open gastrointestinal surgery. METHODS: Forty patients undergoing open gastrointestinal surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 20 each): ScvO2 guided fluid therapy (group S) and P(cv-a) CO2 guided fluid therapy (group P). All the patients were infused 10 ml/kg lactated Ringer's (LR) solution before anesthesia induction, they were all also given a continuous lactated Ringer's (LR) solution's infusion at the speed of 2 ml·kg(-1)·h(-1) during the operation. While, 6%HES 130/0.4 (free flex 6%HES 130/0.4, Fresenius Kabi) infusion was different between the 2 groups, when the patients of group S's central venous blood oxygen saturation < 75% or venous-arterial PCO2 in the patients of P group ≥6 mm Hg, then infused 6%HES 130/0.4. Arterial and central venous blood gas analyses were performed every 20 minutes after skin incision, measure the venous and arterial lactate value, and record the anal exhaust time after surgery, postoperative complications and mortality in 28 days. RESULTS: Compared with group S, the arterial lactate value in T4 (after operation began 80 min) were significantly decreased in group P (P = 0.013), and venous lactate value in T5 (after operation began 100 min) were also lower (P = 0.044), other lactate value were not different (P > 0.05) . The anal exhaust time was not different between the two groups (P = 0.673). All the patients were survival, and there were no obvious postoperative complications. CONCLUSION: Compared to group S, there was a transient improvement in tissue perfusion in group P, but there were no difference in complications and mortality.

[Development of POCT and medical digital assistant for primary medical healthcare].

In this paper, we discuss the meaning, advantages and methods of applying the point of care testing (POCT) and medical digital assistant (MDA) to primary healthcare services. We also introduce the development of the POCT and MDA based on the electronic health record(EHR) system.
