Objective To investigate and assess the current status of communication between medical students and old patients so as to improve the communication skills of medical students. Methods A total of 90 medical students were surveyed by a questionnaire. Data analysis was performed with SPSS 13.0 software. Results Medical students have recognized the importance of communication with patients, but they rarely had active communication behaviors. In addition, their knowledge of communication skills was utterly inadequate. Conclusion It is necessary to strengthen the training of communication skills among medical students.

Objective To discuss the pathogenesis,clinical manifestations,diagnoses and preventive methods on subsequent Wernicke encephalopathy cases of old gastric cancer patients during perioperation.Methods Collected the data of 237 old gastric cancer patients in perioperation from October 1990 to December 2009 hospitalized in the Department of General Surgery,Lanzhou General Hospital Attached to Military Region,PLA.And then retrospectively analysed 7 patents of them who complicated with Wernicke encephalopathy to summarize the clinical manifestation, accessory examination,diagnosis,prevention, and therapy of the Wernicke encephalopathy,and associated factors with its incidence.Results The clinical manifestations of 7 patients included nystagmus （7 cases）,ataxia（4 cases）,brain disorder（6 cases）.Auxiliary examination：4 cases with anemia,7 cases with unusual blood biochemical examination, 5 cases with urinary ketone bodies positive,2 cases with decreasing blood vitamin B1,1 case with unusual skull MRI examination.Five patients were diagnosed before treatment and 2 case were diagnosed by experimental treatment.Finally，4 patents were cured,1 case obviously improved,1 case improved, and 1 case died.And The patients complicated with preoperative hypoproteinemia or pyloric obstruction and postoperative fistula of intestine or gastroplegia syndrome had statistical higher incidence rates of the Wernicke encephalopathy than those without these complications （P＜0.05）.Conclusions The clinical manifestation of the Wernicke encephalopathy have no specificity, it is hard to diagnose,so clinicians should pay attention to it，and combine different ways to diagnose.Improving or preventing complications during perioperative period,and supplementing enough vitamin B are important preventive and therapeutic measures.

ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnostic value of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in obstructive jaundice of elderly patients. MethodsTotally 338 patients with obstructive jaundice underwent ERCP were divided into elderly group (age ≥60 years old) and nonelderly group (age lt;60 years old) based on age. The levels of serum amylase (AMY), ALT, and TBIL in 6, 24, and 48 h after ERCP were detected. The success rate of cholangiopancreatography, accuracy rate of diagnosis, and incidence of complications after ERCP in two groups were analyzed. ResultsThe difference of serum AMY, ALT, and TBIL levels of patients in 6, 24, and 48 h after ERCP were not significant between two groups (Pgt;0.05). The success rate of cholangiopancreatography in nonelderly group was 96.3% (130/135) and in elderly group was 96.1% (195/203), and no difference was found (Pgt;0.05). However, the accuracy rate of diagnosis of ERCP in nonelderly group (84.6%, 110/130) was significantly lower than that in elderly group (98.5%, 192/195), Plt;0.05. The difference of the incidence of complications was not significant between two groups 〔14.8% (20/135) vs. 17.2% (35/203)〕, Pgt;0.05. There was no mortality in two groups patients. ConclusionERCP is a safe, effective, and accurate method, which is of importance to the diagnosis of obstructive jaundice in elderly patients.
Objective To explore the perioperative management of the coexisting diseases for the elderly patients with gastric cancer. Methods The clinical data of perioperative management for coexisting diseases in 528 patients with gastric cancer over 70 years old treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University from March 1980 to November 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results The main coexisting diseases included cardiovascuclar disease (259 cases, 49.05%), respiratory disease (161 cases, 30.49%), diabetes (72 cases, 13.64%). Adjusting blood pressure and blood glucose, improving cardiopulmonary function, and hepatic and renal function were mainly given. The common postoperative complications included intestinal obstruction (10 cases), pneumonia (10 cases), reflux esophagitis (9 cases), functional evacuation disorder of gastric remnant (7 cases), and anastomotic leakage (5 cases). Ten patients died during perioperative period: 6 died of heart and lung failure, 2 of acute myocardial infarction, 1 of anastomotic leakage, 1 of intestinal obstruction. Conclusions The common coexisting diseases in the elderly patients with gastric cancer are hypertension， bronchitis and diabetes. Complete assessment of the patient’s general health before operation and intensive perioperative management of the coexisting diseases not only can decrease the risk of surgical procedures， but also decrease the incidence of complication and perioperative mortality.

Objective To explore the effect of restrictive fluid administration on elderly patients with colorectal cancer in fasttrack.Methods From January 2008 to January 2009, the elderly patients (≥60 years old) diagnosed definitely as colorectal cancer were analyzed retrospectively, the clinical effects on post-operative early rehabilitation were studied and the difference between restrictive fluid regimen and tradition fluid regimen was compared. Results The difference of overall incidence of post-operative complications was statistically significant between the two groups (Plt;0.05). The incidences of anastomotic leakage and pulmonary infection of fluid restriction group were lower than those of tradition therapy group (Plt;0.05). The time of vent to normal, defecation to normal and postoperative first eating of fluid restriction group was shorter than those of tradition therapy group, the difference was statistically significant (Plt;0.05). Comparing the biochemical indicators, the difference of preoperative GLU 〔（6.70±2.93） mmol/L vs. （6.33±3.95） mmol/L〕, BUN 〔(5.84±2.03) mmol/L vs. （7.32±10.83） mmol/L〕and CREA 〔(76.19±19.85) μmol/L vs. （85.36±38.02） μmol/L)〕 was statistically significant (Plt;0.05), but the difference of postoperative results had no statistical significance. Conclusion Restrictive fluid regimen can reduce the incidence of common complications after colorectal surgery for elderly patients, and have a certain promoter action to the early rehabilitation after rectal surgery.
To evaluate the development prevention and treatment of pneumonic injury after operation on aged patients with abdominal infection. We analyzed 77 aged patients (＞60 y) admitted from Jan. 1991 to Dec. 1992: 38 cases of which with abdominal infection (infection group), 39 cases without abdominal infection (non-infection group). All patients were given oxygen therapy and continuous SaO2 monitoring. Results: There were 28 patients with hypoxemia (SaO2＜95%) in infection group, with an occurrence rate of 73.7%. In non-infection group (12 patients), the rate of hyoxemia was 30.8%, which has significant difference between two groups (Ｐ＜0.001). All patients with hypoxemia were given oxygen therapy and 31 patients′ SaO2 was elevated. The efficient rate was 77.5%. Other 9 patients developed ARDS, the rate was 2.5% (9/40). In the infection group 8 patients developed ARDS with an occurrence rate of 21.1%. There was one patient with ARDS in the non-infection group, the rate was 2.6%. There was significant difference between two group (Ｐ＜0.05). Conclusions: The results suggest that hypoxemia is liable to occur in aged patients with abdominal infection after operation and these patients were liable to develop ARDS. Oxygen therapy and SaO2 monitoring is the important managements to these patients in prevention of pneumonic injury.
