ObjectiveTo investigate the preoperative cognition of the patients undergoing daytime ophthalmic fundus surgery and understand their needs of health education, so as to provide an evidence for efficient and accurate preoperative health education services within the limited time of the ophthalmic day fundus surgery.MethodsThe convenient sampling method was used to select the patients who met the inclusion criteria in the ambulatory operating room of Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from December 2017 to May 2018. The study included three parts: the general information of the patients, the preoperative cognition of the patients, and the needs for health education service of the patients. Questionnaires were designed according to the research purpose and method, which were distributed and recovered by professionals.ResultsA total of 112 patients were included. Among them, the cognitive scores of operation process (2.57±0.56), preoperative diet (2.58±0.59), preoperative medication (2.60±0.64), and psychological status (2.58±0.65) were relatively low. More health education services were needed in three aspects: the cognition of operation details [operation duration (85.71%), surgeons (79.46%), operation start time (76.79%)], intraoperative cooperation (90.18%), and intervention for preoperative anxiety (78.57%).ConclusionNurses should formulate the contents of preoperative health education according to the preoperative cognition and nursing needs of patients, so as to provide efficient and accurate health education services for patients.
Objective To determine the relationship between preoperative prognostic inflammatory and nutritional index (PINI) value and short-term prognosis in colorectal cancer. Methods Patients with colorectal cancer verified by pathologically examine were prospectively enrolled from April 2009 to June 2009. Serum alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, C-reactive protein, albumin and prealbumin were examined on day 3 before operation, and the value of preoperative PINI was calculated. The relationships between preoperative PINI and patho-TNM stage, complications, quality of life, and recurrence and metastasis after operation were analyzed. Results Total 38 patients with colorectal cancer underwent radical surgery were enrolled. Preoperative PINI value was 2.17±1.27. Preoperative PINI value was correlated with TMN stage and M stage: PINI value in patients of Ⅳ stage or M1 stage, were significantly higher than those in ones of Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ stage （P＜0.001） or M0 stage （P＜0.001）. There was no significant correlation between preoperative PINI value and preoperative complications （Pgt;0.05）. Preoperative PINI value was correlated with postoperative diet, anorexia and overall quality of life: preoperative PINI value in patients with abnormal diet, anorexia or poor quality of life, were significantly higher than those in ones with normal diet (P=0.020), no-anorexia (P=0.020) or moderate (P=0.025) and well (P=0.020) quality of life. Conclusion Preoperative PINI value is an effective index to assess the short-term prognosis of colorectal cancer.
Objective To determine the influence and significance of combinative assessment of 64 multi-slice spiral computer tomography (MSCT) with serum amyloid A protein (SAA) or fibrinogen (FIB) on the selection of operative procedures of rectal cancer under the multidisciplinary team. Methods Prospectively enrolled 240 patients diagnosed definitely as rectal cancer at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from February to June 2009 were randomly assigned into two groups. In one group named MSCT+SAA group, both MSCT and SAA combinative assessment were made for the preoperative evaluation. In another group named MSCT+FIB group, both MSCT and FIB combinative assessment were made for preoperative evaluation. Furthermore, the preoperative staging and predicted operation procedures were compared with postoperative pathologic staging and practical operation procedures, respectively, and the relationship between the choice of operation procedures and clinicopathologic factors was analyzed. Results According to the criteria, 234 patients were actually included into MSCT+SAA group (n=118) and MSCT+FIB group (n=116). The baseline characteristics of two groups were statistically similar (Pgt;0.05). For MSCT+SAA group, the accuracies of preoperative staging T, N, M and TNM were 72.9%, 83.1%, 100% and 80.1%, respectively. For MSCT+FIB group, the accuracies of preoperative staging T, N, M and TNM were 68.1%, 75.0%, 100% and 74.1%, respectively, and there was not a statistically significant difference (Pgt;0.05). There was also not a statistically significant difference of the accuracy of prediction to operative procedures in two groups (99.6% vs. 96.6%, Pgt;0.05). The preoperative T staging (P＜0.001), N staging (P＜0.001), TNM staging (P＜0.001), serum level of SAA (P＜0.001), serum level of FIB (Plt;0.001) and distance of tumor to the dentate line (P＜0.05) were associated to the operative procedures. Conclusions Combinative assessment of MSCT and FIB could improve the accuracy of preoperative staging and operative procedures prediction, however, it may be not superior to MSCT plus SAA.
ObjectiveTo explore potential value of three-dimensional reconstruction technique for preoperative evaluation of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.
MethodsTwenty-one cases of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis proved by postoperative pathological examination in Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai University from October 2013 to March 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The three periods of patients’ liver dynamic thin layerCTscan images were collected and imported in three-dimensional reconstruction software by DICOM format. The volume of the virtual resected liver tissue was calculated by software, and then was compared with the actual resected liver tissue volume.
ResultsThe resected liver volume was (761.94±505.77) mL and (756.19±501.78) mL in the virtual surgery and in the veritable surgery, respectively. The proportion of resected liver in the total liver was (39.27±18.75)% and (38.95±16.99)% in the virtual surgery and in the veritable surgery, respectively. The resected liver volume had no significant difference between the virtual surgery and veritable surgery (P>0.05), which a positive relation (r=0.989, P<0.001).
ConclusionThe limited preliminary data in this study show that three-dimensional reconstruction technique and virtual planning system for surgery could accurately guide resection of lesion and provide preoperative guidance of accurate liver resection for hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.
Objective To summarize the current advancement of preoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer. Methods Relevant literatures about current advancement of preoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer published domesticly and abroad recently were collected and reviewed. Results The lower local recurrence rate and longer disease-free survival time were observed in preoperative radiotherapy， compared with postoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer. The recurrence rate was higher in short-course radiotherapy， compared with conventionally radiotherapy for stageⅢrectal cancer， but there was no significant difference for stageⅡrectal cancer. The biology molecular such as p53， CEA， Cox-2， EGFR， and VEGF had shown to be radiosensitive. Conclusions The proposal of preoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer， could be prone to conventionally radiotherapy. There are more screening targets for preoperative radiotherapy in extensive exploration of diverse radiosensitivity. Biology molecular， developed gene expression profiling， and gene chips for rectal cancer may contribute to the individualization treatment.
ObjectiveTo summarize the prevention method for pancreatic fistula following pancreaticoduodenec-tomy.
MethodLiteratures related to the prevention methods for postoperative pancreatic fistula at home and abroad in recent years were retrieved and summarized.
ResultsThe pancreatic fistula was a common complication following pancreaticoduodenectomy. It was mainly caused by preoperative continuous high jaundice, selection of intraoperative anastomosis, and early postoperative pancreatic juice secretion. Trypsinogen was activated by alkaline intestinal juice and then the nearby tissue was digested. Pancreatic juice flowed into abdominal cavity to digest the tissue, then caused serious complications or even death. Through the prevention of drugs, preoperative biliary drainage and intraoperative anastomosis, etc., the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula was slightly decreased.
ConclusionThe prevention for postoperative pancreatic fistula is an integrated process, and it needs to be ran through the whole perioperative period.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of prophylactic use of intra-aortic balloon pump counterpulsation (IABP) before coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in high risk patients.
MethodsDatabases including The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2014), PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP were electronically searched from inception to July 2014, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies about prophylactic use of IABP before CABG in high risk patients. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.2 software.
ResultsA total of 6 RCTs and 6 cohort studies involving 1 359 patients were included, of which 633 prophylactically used IABP before CABG (the IABP group) and 736 didn't prophylactically use IABP before CABG (the control group). The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared with the control group, prophylactic use of IABP could significantly reduce perioperative mortality (RCT: OR=0.15, 95%CI 0.06 to 0.38, P<0.000 1; cohort study: OR=0.36, 95%CI 0.19 to 0.67, P=0.001) and postoperative LCOS (RCT: OR=0.23, 95%CI 0.12 to 0.43, P<0.000 01; cohort study: OR=0.21, 95%CI 0.10 to 0.43, P<0.000 1); there was no significant difference between two groups in incidence rate of postoperative myocardial infarction (MI) (RCT: OR=0.34, 95%CI 0.10 to 1.11, P=0.07; cohort study: OR=0.56, 95%CI 0.26 to 1.24, P=0.15); the results of combined analyses of RCTs showed that, prophylactic use of IABP could significantly reduce postoperative ICU stay (MD=-42.94, 95%CI -56.11 to -29.76, P<0.000 01) and postoperative hospital stay (MD=-3.83, 95%CI-5.82 to -1.85, P=0.0002), but these differences were not found in the results of combined analyses of cohort studies (MD=-4.68, 95%CI 20.69 to 11.33, P=0.57; MD=-0.77, 95%CI -1.80 to 0.26, P=0.14).
ConclusionProphylactic use of IABP before CABG in high risk patients can significantly reduce the perioperative mortality, postoperative LCOS and the length of ICU stay, however it cannot reduce postoperative MI. Due to the limited quantity and quality of included studies, the above conclusions still need to be verified by more high quality studies.
Objective
To evaluate the safety and necessity of shortening the time of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation in lumber disc herniation patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery.
Methods
A total of 141 eligible patients were assigned into the control group (n=70) and the intervention group (n=71) between April and September 2015. The control group received traditional fasting method while the intervention group received new preoperative fasting method. The time of fasting food and fluid limitation, the incidences of hunger, thirsty, aspiration, postoperative nausea and vomiting, postoperative abdominal distension, and length of stay and the subjective feeling in hospital were compared between the two groups.
Results
The average time of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation were (13.09±2.30) and (7.84±2.10) hours in the control group and (6.88±0.96) and (4.68±1.08) hours in the intervention group. The incidence of thirsty in the intervention group was shorter than that in the control group, and the subjective feeling in hospital of the intervention group was better than that in the control group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, the incidence of postoperative abdominal distension, and length of hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05).
Conclusions
Shortening the time of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation can improve the subjective feeling in hospital of lumber disc herniation patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery, not increasing the incidences of complications. It can be applied gradually.
Objective To determine the influence of combinative assessment of 64 multi-slice spiral computer tomography (MSCT) and serum amyloid A protein (SAA ) on the selection of operative procedures in lower rectal cancer.MethodsProspectively enrolled 130 patients diagnosed definitely as lower rectal cancer (distance of tumor to the dentate line ≤7 cm) at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from July 2007 to September 2008 were randomly assigned into two groups with 65 participants, respectively. In one group named MSCT+SAAgroup, both 64 MSCT and SAA combinative assessment were made for the preoperative evaluation. In another group named MSCT group, only the preoperative MSCT was made. Furthermore, the preoperative staging and predicted operation procedures were compared with postoperative pathologic staging and practical operation program, respectively.ResultsAccording to the criteria, 119 patients with colorectal cancer were actually included into MSCT+SAA group (n=58) and MSCT group (n=61). The baselines characteristics of two groups were basically identical. For MSCT+SAAgroup, the accuracies of preoperative staging T, N, M and TNM were 89.66%, 79.31%, 100% and 77.59%, respectively; For MSCT group, the corresponding rates were 86.89%, 70.49%, 100% and 65.57%, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference of the accuracy of prediction to operative procedures in two groups (93.10% vs. 80.33%, P=0.041). The clinical staging (P=0.001), preoperative T staging (P=0.000), M staging (P=0.016), TNM staging (P=0.013) and serum level of SAA (P=0.029) were related to the selection of operative procedures when analyzing the relationship between the operative procedures and multiple clinicopathologic factors in lower rectal cancer. ConclusionCombinative assessment of 64 MSCT and SAA could improve the accuracy of preoperative staging, thus provide higher predictive coincidence rate to operative procedures for surgeon.
Objective To discuss the important role of preoperative chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of mid-low rectal cancer. Methods From the surgical point of view, the evidences from clinic trials in literatures of recent years and also from the results of our single institution were analyzed. Results Preoperative radiotherapy with total dosage of 50 Gy had showed more and more advantages in the past two decades. Preoperative radiotherapy with concomitant chemotherapy had definite effects in downing stage and improving local control, while its role in sphincter preserving kept in controversy. However, this combined preoperative therapies had not improved long-term survival in rectal cancer. By now, there were no proper indicators to predict the effects of therapies. Conclusion Preoperative chemoradiotherapy is still the only way to improve the rate of R0 resection and decrease the rate of local currence after surgery for patients with mid-low advanced rectal cancer.
