Objective:To evaluate the effect of intraoperative individualized systolic blood pressure (SBP) management on myocardial injury after hip replacement in elderly patients at high risks of hypertension.Methods:One hundred and eighty-two patients of either sex, aged 60-89 yr, with body mass index of 18-26 kg/m 2, with a history of hypertension requiring drug treatment and stratified high risk factors of cardiovascular risk factors, scheduled for elective hip replacement under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=91 each) using a random number table method: routine management group and individualized SBP management group. Individualized SBP management group maintained the intraoperative SBP at 90%-110% of the baseline value, and routine management group implemented blood pressure management according to the current routine clinical pathway.The intermedian cubital venous blood samples were collected before surgery and at 24, 48, and 72 h after surgery for determination of the serum concentrations of high sensitivity cardiac troponin T. Postoperative myocardial injury and myocardial infarction were also recorded. The 30-day all-cause mortality was recorded on day 30 after surgery. Results:The incidence of postoperative myocardial injury and serum concentrations of high sensitivity cardiac troponin T at 24, 48 and 72 h after surgery were significantly decreased, and the length of hospital stay was shortened in individualized SBP management group as compared with routine management group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Intraoperative individualized SBP management can reduce the postoperative myocardial injury in elderly patients at high risk of hypertension undergoing hip replacement.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between declined preoperative left ventricular diastolic function and postoperative increased extravascular lung water (EVLW) in the patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).Methods:A total of 116 patients, aged 55-90 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ, with body mass index of ≤30 kg/m 2, undergoing elective TURP under general anesthesia, without increased EVLW before surgery, were included in the study.Lung ultrasound examination was performed and lung ultrasound scores were assessed before leaving PACU.Increased EVLW was defined as lung ultrasound score ≥20.The occurrence of increased EVLW after operation was recorded, and patients were divided into increased EVLW group and non-increased EVLW group according to whether increased EVLW occurred.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for postoperative increased EVLW. Results:The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that declined preoperative left ventricular diastolic function was an independent risk factor for postoperative increased EVLW ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Declined preoperative left ventricular diastolic function is an independent risk factor for postoperative increased EVLW in the patients undergoing TURP.

Objective:Since December 2019, novel coronavirus infection has occurred in Hubei province and spread throughout the country quickly. This new crown viral pneumonia was named as coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) by WHO. However, at present, there is a high incidence of acute aortic dissection in winter and spring. How to prevent the spread of the epidemic and choose the appropriate treatment is an important topic for the patients with acute aortic dissection.Methods:From January 16, 2020 to February 26, 2020, a total of 37 of acute aortic dissection operations were carried out in several cardiovascular surgery centers in Hubei Province. There were 18 cases of Stanford type A aortic dissection and 19 cases of Stanford type B aortic dissection. There were 10 cases (55.55%) with ascending aorta replacement and 7 cases (38.89%) with Bentall procedure for aortic root surgery, and total arch replacement with stented elephant trunk implantation were performed in 14 cases (77.8%). In 19 patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection, thoracic endovascular aortic repair was performed, with the left subclavian artery chimney technique in 2 cases.Results:No deaths occurred within 30 days of hospitalization. Preoperative nucleic acid testing excluded 7 cases of novel coronavirus infection, and 3 suspected cases underwent emergency surgery. the three-level protective standard was adopted in the majority of the surgeries(62.2%, 23/37), and 11 patients were negative in the reexamination of viral nucleic acid after the operation.Conclusion:During the epidemic period, patients with acute aortic dissection should be carefully identified with actife COVID-19 before surgery. The treatment principles-" prevention and control of pneumonia epidemic should be emphasized, conservative medical management should be taken in the comfirmed cases, the selective operation should be delayed as far as possible, and the operation should be reasonable performed in critical cases" should be followed, which can save patients' lives to the greatest extent and prevent the spread of the virus.
RÉSUMÉ
Objective@#To summarize the effect of modified David technique on acute type A aortic dissection sinus formation.@*Methods@#From March 2018 to September 2018, modified David technique was applied to aortic sinus remodeling in acute A-type aortic dissection in 19 patients, 13 males and 6 females. The age was 45-67(50.42±15.37) years old and the weight was 45-112(60.32±25.18) kg. Single sinus(noncoronary sinus) was repaired in 15 cases, double sinus formation(noncoronary sinus+ right coronary sinus+ coronary artery transplantation) in 2 cases, left sinus Florid sleeve technical treatment plus double sinus formation(noncoronary sinus+ right coronary sinus+ coronary artery transplantation) in 1 case, Single sinus(noncoronary sinus) repaired and aortic vavle replacement in 1 case. Frozen elephant trunk and total arch replacement in 13 cases, hemiarch replacement in 3 cases.@*Results@#There were no deaths in this group. The cardiopulmonary bypass time was 176-245(193.27±32.46) minutes, the aortic cross clamp time was 105-187(122.36±18.57)minutes, and the operation time was 6.5-11.0(7.63±1.31) hours. The mechanical ventilation time was 18-122(48.27±34.73)hours, the intensive care unit stay time was 2-10(5.35±2.62) days, and the postoperative hospital stay was 7-22(12.63±3.25)days. There was no delayed sternal closure during operation, and there was no secondary thoracotomy after operation. One patient developed a transient advanced atrioventricular block. Transient neurological dysfunction was observed in 5 patients. All patients were followed up for more than half a year. The color Doppler echocardiography and computed tomography angiograph(CTA)showed no aortic regurgitation or residual dissection.@*Conclusion@#The application of modified David technique in the remodeling of aortic root sinus in acute type A aortic dissection is an effective technique with relatively simple process, which is worth promoting.
