ABSTRACT

The judgment of left ventricular systolic dysfunction is of great significance for the diagnosis of heart disease, risk evaluation, and follow-ups of patients with heart disease. Evaluation of left ventricular systolic function is the most commonly used index in echocardiography. At present, the echocardiographic measurement of left ventricular function has changed from linear measurement and two-dimensional echocardiography to local and global strain analysis and three-dimensional echocardiography. Even if examination method is very superior and automatic, evaluating left ventricular systolic function is extremely challenging. This paper reviews the most widely used echocardiography, evaluates left ventricular systolic function in adults and children, and discusses its advantages, disadvantages and the research progress.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of esophageal pressure (Pes) calibration by the esophageal balloon pressure-volume (P-V) curve during assisted mechanical ventilation.Methods:A prospective study was conducted. The postoperative patients admitted to intensive care unit of Beijing Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from June 2017 to January 2019 who needed pressure support ventilation by tracheal intubation and Pes monitoring with stable breath were enrolled. The Pes monitoring was performed by the esophageal balloon with a small geometric volume (2.8 mL). ① Balloon volume tests of esophageal balloon were performed by inflating intermittently 0.5 mL increments up to 2.5 mL, the end-expiratory and end-inspiratory Pes were recorded to obtain end-expiratory and end-inspiratory P-V curves. The intermediate section in end-expiatory P-V curve that showed linear correlation was identified (as intermediate linear section), whose volume range was balloon working volume ( Vwork) and slope was esophageal wall elastance (Ees), the balloon volume with the largest difference between end-expiratory and end-inspiratory Pes was the best balloon volume ( Vbest), and the product of Ees and Vbest was esophageal wall recoil pressure reacting to balloon filling. To minimize the effect of esophageal wall on Pes, the calibrated Pes was the difference of Pes and esophageal wall recoil pressure. The consistency of calibrated Pes obtained by balloon volume at Vbset and other Vwork were analyzed. ② For the convenience of clinical application, a simplified method was introduced to calibrate Pes. Based on all Vwork of patients located in 0.5-1.5 mL, the difference of end-expiratory Pes between balloon volume at 0.5 mL and 1.5 mL divided by 1.0 mL was used to estimate Ees, and the Pes among 0.5-1.5 mL was calibrated by Ees obtained by the simple method. The consistency of calibrated Pes obtained by the simple method and standard method were observed. Results:Totally 30 patients were enrolled, all end-expiratory and end-inspiratory P-V curves existed the intermediate linear section, the calibrated Pes at Vwork did not increase with the balloon being inflated and had a good consistency with the calibrated Pes at Vbest, mean difference and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was -0.02 (-1.50-1.50) cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa). The Ees and calibrated Pes estimated by the simple method had a good agreement with the standard method, mean difference and 95% CI was -0.2 (-1.0-0.6) cmH 2O/mL and 0.2 (-1.1-1.4) cmH 2O, respectively. Conclusions:During assisted mechanical ventilation, the use of a small geometric volume esophageal balloon to monitor Pes and balloon P-V curve to calibrate Pes is feasible. The simple method can be used for simplifying clinical application, that's only by monitoring Pes at balloon volume at 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 mL to evaluate the Ees and calibrate Pes.

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the differences in biochemical and routine manifestations of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in critically ill patients with intracranial infection caused by different pathogens in department of neurosurgery. Methods The patients with intracranial infection after neurosurgery were admitted in the department of intensive care unit (ICU) of Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2016, their examination results of positive CSF samples were obtained, and the differences in biochemical and routine test results among different classes of bacterial pathogens in CSF were compared. Results A total of 404 samples of 310 patients were analyzed; Gram-positive (G+) bacteria were the major cause of infection (308 case-times, 76.2%), among which, Staphylococci epidermidis was the leading causative pathogen (115 cases, 37.3%), followed by coagulase-negative Staphylococci (76 cases, 24.6%), and Staphylococcus aureus (52 cases, 16.9%); bacteria were detected in 96 case-times, accounting for 23.8% and occupying the secondary position. The overall indicator levels of CSF with G- pathogen were higher than those with G+bacteria, among which CSF with G- bacteria pathogen protein content [mg/L: 1 795 (1 999) vs. 1 068 (1 251)], white blood cell (WBC) count [×106/L: 1 069.5 (5 295.8) vs. 446.5 (1 689.3)], proportion of neutrophils [N: 0.877 (0.218) vs. 0.788 (0.416)] were obviously higher than those in CSF with G+bacteria pathogen, however, glucose (Glu) concentration level was lower than that in CSF with positive G- bacteria [mmol/L: 1.7 (2.5) vs. 2.6 (1.7), P < 0.05]. Simultaneously, it was also found that in culture G- bacteria appeared slightly later than G+bacteria [days: 9.0 (10.0) vs. 8.0 (7.0)], Acinetobacter and other negative bacteria being obvious, but as a whole there was no statistical significant difference. Conclusions G+bacteria are the major pathogens for intracranial infections patients after neurosurgery, and its time of isolation in bacterial culture has a tendency of being earlier than that of G- bacteria; in the comparisons between biochemical and routine results of CSF with positive G- bacteria and with positive G+bacteria, there are protein, glucose, WBC and N levels having statistical significant differences, suggesting that these indicators have potential values to differentiate these two kinds of bacteria.

ABSTRACT

Medical imaging is an interdisciplinary subject closely related to clinical and pathological subject. Its clinical reading skills' training has become the focus of postgraduate teaching. In the process of clinical teaching, the interactive reading mode of problem-based learning (PBL) combined with multi-disci-plinary team (MDT) was introduced into clinical reading meeting. The tutors chose the reading cases proved by pathology; designed in-depth issues step by step for execution of PBL teaching; guided postgraduates to delineate imaging signs and propose the diagnostic results, evidences and differential diagnoses according to the step from localizing to qualitative and then to pathological diagnosis;then guided postgraduates to attend in-depth case analysis of MDT and analyze the correlation or inconsistency between the imaging diagnosis and clinical and pathological diagnosis; exercise document retrieval and verbalization, multimedia design, and writing level of the records of the reading cases and papers. The interactive reading mode of PBL com-bined with MDT has achieved significant effects, which is worthy of further exploration and promotion.

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the difference in pharmacokinetics characteristics of vancomycin in cerebrospinal fluid between administration by continuous infusion and interim infusion.Methods Twenty postoperative patients in the Department of Neurosurgery of Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University admitted into intensive care unit (ICU) to receive vancomycin for prophylaxis of intracranial infection were enrolled, and they were randomly distributed to a continuous intravenous infusion group and a interim intravenous infusion group, each group 10 cases. In continuous intravenous infusion group, the patients received a loading dose of vancomycin (15 mg/kg) by continuous intravenous pump infusion for 1 - 2 hours followed by 30 mg/kg vancomycin in a constant pump infusion rate for 24 hours; while in interim intravenous infusion group, the patients received 15 mg/kg vancomycin administered by intravenous pump infusion for 1 - 2 hours, once every 12 hours. The concentration of vancomycin in the cerebrospinal fluid at different time points was measured by two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) method, the parameters of pharmacokinetics were calculated in the two groups, and the adverse reaction was observed.Results The comparison between the ratio of areas under the concentration-time curves (AUC) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the continuous and interim groups showed no significant difference (19.7±14.0 vs. 16.1±6.4,P > 0.05). However, in the continuous intravenous infusion group, the drug concentration reached the peak value (0.96± 0.77)μg/mL at 12 hours, and later revealed a plateau concentration 0.91-0.93μg/mL for 12 hours; while in the intravenous infusion interim group, the drug concentration reached the peak value (0.92±0.47)μg/mL at 16 hours, in the later 2 hours declined to (0.84±0.45)μg/mL, and afterwards still had a tendency of persistent declination. In all the patients, no any adverse reaction related to the drug occurred.Conclusion Continuous intravenous infusion and interim intravenous infusion of vancomycin for the postoperative neurosurgical patients without intracranial infection have the similar efficacy of medication, but the former can achieve the peak concentration faster and later the fluctuation of drug concentration in cerebrospinal fluid is smaller than those in the latter.
