  • Application of Tracking Methodology in Regulating the Intravenous Treating Behavior of Basic-level Hospital Nurses

    ObjectiveTo explore the application of tracking method in intravenous treatment in primary hospitals, in order to improve the quality of nursing of intravenous therapy. MethodsFor the 22 events of venous transfusion adverse reactions between January and March 2013, we used tracking methodology for tracking and analyzing the reasons. Through this, we regulated and implemented specific improvement scheme, perfected rules and regulations to improve the work process. ResultsThrough reason analysis and improving regulations, the number of intravenous infusion adverse reactions was decreased from 22 in the first quarter to 0 in the fourth quarter of the year. ConclusionTracking methodology used for regulating the intravenous treatment behaviors of basic-level hospitals nurses can reduce the occurrence of adverse transfusion reaction

  • One-stage Hybrid Surgery for Complex Stanford Type B Aortic Dissection

    ObjectiveTo review clinical techniques and outcomes of one-stage hybrid surgery for complex Stanford type B aortic dissection (AD), and explore the feasibility of this surgery in basic-level hospitals. MethodsSeven patients with complex Stanford type B AD underwent one-stage hybrid surgery from December 2010 to March 2013 in Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery of Xiangyang Central Hospital. There were 2 males and 5 females with a mean age of 50.0±8.3 years. Preoperative computed tomography angiography (CTA)found that the distance between breach and left subclavian artery opening was less than 15 mm in 4 patients, and left subclavian artery root were involved in 3 patients. One patient had several calcification sites of the thoracic aorta and coronary arterial stenosis near the middle segment of anterior descen-ding coronary artery by about 70%. All the patients received general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation. Firstly, bypass surgery of the branches of the aortic arch was performed via neck incision in the operating room, then endovascular aortic repair (EVAR)using femoral artery incision was performed in the catheter room. The patient with coronary artery disease received concomitant stenting of the anterior descending artery. ResultsAll the patients successfully received the operation and EVAR. Postoperatively, 1 patient had mild type Ⅰ endoleaks. No death or severe complication occurred in this group. Intraoperative angiography showed that blood flow in true lumen of AD became normal, all the bypass grafts were unobs-tructed, the positioning of stent grafts was accurate, and no stent displacement was found. All the 7 patients were followed-up for 3-24 (12.0±3.6)months, and all the patients were alive and resumed normal life during follow-up. In 6 patients, CTA at 3 months, 1 year or 2 years after the operation showed no stent graft translocation, endoleak, bypass or graft obstruction. In 1 patient with typeⅠendoleaks, CTA at 3 months after the operation showed contrast agent in the false lumen, but partial thrombosis occurred, the size and scope of false lumen were smaller than preoperative values, and the true lumen significantly became larger. CTA at 6 months after the operation showed that leakage had disappeared. None of the patients had any sign of brain or limb ischemia. ConclusionOne-stage hybrid surgery is safe and effective for the treatment of complex Stanford type B AD, expands the treatment indications of EVAR, and is worthy of widely application in basic-level hospitals.
