ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of eye-covering pretreatment on acute delirium in ophthalmology preschool-age children who underwent binocular and monocular surgery by general anesthesia.Methods:The 300 preschool-age children who underwent general anesthesia of elective ophthalmic surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, from August 2019 to February 2021 were selected as the research object. They were divided into control group and blindfold group with 150 cases each by random number-table. Children in the control group received regular education on cartoon animation videos before surgery; children in the blindfold group received eye-covering pretreatment on the basis of cartoon animation videos(monocular surgery with monocular cover, binocular surgery with binocular cover). The Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (m-YPAS) , the Nursing Delirium Screening Scale(NU-DESC), the incidence rate of delirium and the score of postoperative nursing difficulty were compared between two groups.Results:The 271 cases were completed in this study, including 129 cases(monocular surgery 66 cases, binocular surgery 63 cases) in the blindfold group and 142 cases (monocular surgery 73 cases, binocular surgery 69 cases) in the control group. The preoperative m-YPAS score, the postoperative NU-DESC score, the incidence rate of acute delirium and postoperative nursing care difficulty score of monocular surgery in the blindfold group , monocular surgery was (40.28 ± 15.02) points, 1.00 (0.00, 2.00) points, 27.3%(18/66), 1.00 (1.00, 2.00) points,and binocular surgery was (41.69 ± 16.35) points, 1.00 (0.00, 2.00), 39.7%(25/63), 1.00(1.00, 2.00); in the control group, monocular surgery was (46.28 ± 15.76) points, 2.00 (1.00, 3.00) points, 67.1% (49/73), 2.00 (1.00, 3.00) points, and binocular surgery was (47.77 ± 14.82) points, 3.00 (2.00, 4.00) points, 82.6% (57/69) and 2.00 (1.50, 3.00) points respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t= -2.29, -2.24, Z values were -5.74 - -2.95, χ2= 32.94, 25.78, all P<0.05). The preoperative m-YPAS score, the postoperative NU-DESC score, the incidence rate of acute delirium and postoperative nursing care difficulty score of monocular surgery patients in the blindfold group had no significantly statistical difference with that of binocular surgery patient (all P>0.05) . Conclusions:Monocular/ binocular eye-covering pretreatment can effectively decrease the preoperative m-YPAS score, the postoperative NU-DESC score, incidence rate of acute delirium and the postoperative nursing care difficulty in preschool-age children who underwent general anesthesia both monocular or binocular surgery. There was no difference in the application effect of monocular or binocular surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of scar uterus on assisted reproduction treatment strategy.Methods:From January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017, 109 cases of scar uterus group and 63 cases of vaginal delivery history group who underwent in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) assisted pregnancy fresh embryo transfer in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Results:⑴ There was no significant difference in the total amount of gonadotropin (Gn) and the total days of GN in patients <35 between scar uterus group and the vaginal delivery history group ( P>0.05), but there were significant differences in the number of oocytes, mature oocytes, two pronucleus (2PN) and excellent embryos between the scar uterus group and the vaginal delivery history group ( P<0.05). When the age was ≥35 years old, there was no significant difference in the total number of GN, the total days of GN, the number of oocytes obtained, the number of mature oocytes, the number of 2PN and the number of excellent embryos between the two groups ( P>0.05). ⑵ There were no statistically significant differences in clinical pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate between the two groups of patients < 35 years old, no matter single embryo transplantation or double embryos transplantation. When transplant two embryos, the clinical pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate in the scar uterus group were slightly lower than those in the vaginal delivery history group (57.57% vs 71.05% and 39.39% vs 47.37%, respectively), but with no significant difference ( P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the clinical pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate between single embryo transplantation and double embryo transplantation in patients≥35 years old ( P>0.05). ⑶ There were no statistically differences in biochemical pregnancy rate, early abortion rate, preterm birth rate and average newborn weight between the scar uterus group and the vaginal delivery history group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Cesarean section may affect the ovarian function. For patients with previous cesarean section, early evaluation of ovarian function is recommended. Single embryo transfer does not reduce the outcome in IVF-ET. It is recommended to perform single embryo transfer for patients with scar uterus to reduce the risk during pregnancy of twin pregnancy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the effects of artificial cycle after long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist down regulation scheme and artificial cycle only scheme in preparation of endometrium before frozen embryo transfer in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients on pregnancy outcome.Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the frozen embryo transfer of 132 PCOS patients in the reproductive center of Hunan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from November 2016 to October 2017.The patients were divided into GnRH-a down regulation + artificial cycle group (n =66) and simple artificial cycle group (n =66) according to the different endometrial preparation schemes before frozen embryo transplantation.The transplantation cycle and pregnancy outcome of the two groups were compared.Results (1) There was no statistically significant difference in age,primary infertility rate,infertility years and body mass index (BMI) between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).(2) In the artificial cycle group,4 cases in which the transplantation was cancelled,including 2 cases who were cancelled due to breakthrough bleeding and 2 cases due to endometrial thickness that were less than 7 mm.There was a statistically significant difference in the cancellation rate between the two groups (x2 =4.13,P =0.04).There were no statistically significant difference in embryo frozen storage time,retrieved oocytes in fresh embryo cycle,frozen thawed embryos in the survival rate,graftage embryonic number,high-quality embryonic rate,endometrium thickness in conversion day (P ＞ 0.05).Estrogen level,luteinizing hormone (LH) levels on endometrium conversion day in GnRH-a down regulation plus artificial cycle group and artificial cycle group were respectively as [(1 439.38 ± 357.43) nmoL/ml vs (1 580.54 ± 479.69) nmol/ml and (2.32 ± 0.94) mIU/ml vs (9.46 ±1.52) mIU/ml],with statistically significant difference (x2 =53.64,P ＜ 0.001;x2 =14.32,P ＜ 0.001).(3) The biochemical pregnancy rates of the patients in the GnRH-a down regulation plus artificial cycle group and artificial cycle group were 72.73％ and 53.23％ respectively,with statistically significant difference (x2 =5.23,P =0.036).The clinical pregnancy rate (65.15％) in GnRH-a down regulation plus artificial cycle group was higher than that of the artificial cycle group (46.77％),with statistically significant difference (x2 =4.39,P =0.022).There was no statistically significant difference in early abortion rate and ectopic pregnancy rate between the two groups.Conclusions In frozen embryo transplantation cycle,long-term GnRH-a down regulation after artificial cycle scheme is superior to simple artificial cycle scheme with significantly reduced cycle cancellation rate,low estrogen and LH levels in endometrium transformation day and higher biochemical pregnancy rate and clinical pregnancy rate.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of the frozen embryo transplantation for patients with poor outcome of endometrial growth by using growth hormone (GH) intrauterine perfusion combined with replacement cycle in the treatment of thin endometrium.Methods This was a prospective study and study participants were consecutively recruited between Jun 2014 and September 2015.A total of 88 frozen thawed embryo transfer cycles was divided into two groups from the Reproductive Center of Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital.Group A were 63 hormone replacement therapy (HRT) cycles and Group B were 25 GH intrauterine perfusion combined HRT cycles.Results The endometrial thickness of 22 thin endometrium patients from Group B were increased above 7 mm on progesterone day.The endometrial thickness on transplant day of Group A was (9.28 ± 1.64) mm,which was significantly higher than Group B (7.9 ± 0.86) mm (P ＜ 0.05).The clinical pregnancy rate (50.79％ vs 52.0％),implantation rate 31.1％ vs 47.17％),miscarriage rate (9.38％ vs 15.38％) had no significant difference between Groups A and B.The endometrial thickness from 7 mm to 7.9 mm on transplant day,the clinical pregnancy rate (30.76％ vs 54.54％) had no significant difference in two groups (P ＞0.05),but the implantation rate of group A was significantly lower than that of group B (20％ vs 52.17％) (P ＜0.05).When the endometrial thickness was above 8 mm on transplant day,the clinical pregnancy rate (58.33％ vs 63.63％),implantation rate (36.36％ vs 50％) had no significant difference between groups A and B (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions GH uterine cavity perfusion was a useful method for treatment of thin endometrium,and was helpful for improvement of endometrial thickness and receptivity,improved embryo implantation environment by assistance for HRT under the high estrogen levels.
