Methods:Gynecological oral Chinese patent medicines used in our hospital during 20072008 were analyzed in terms of drug varieties,consumption quantity,consumption sum, defined daily dose(DDDs)and defined daily cost(DDC)etc.Results:There was a widespread application of Fukang pills, Yimucao capsules and Wujia Shenghua capsules.The consumption of Gongxuening capsules witnessed a great reduction on account of western medicine.Some new Chinese patent medicines such as Dahuang zhechong tablets assumed fast increaseing tendency in consumption quantity. Conclusion:The utilization of Gynecological oral Chinese patent medicines in our hospital was basically rational.
ObjectiveTo propose policy recommendations for improvement of the affordability of high cost medicines with significant public health implications under the patent system in China. MethodsThrough literature analysis and market investigation, this study targeted expensive life saving medicines under the patent protection, which are critical for the treatment of eight diseases with the most significant disease burden and critical social, economic and political impact for case studies, estimated the individual and insurance direct economic burden of medicines treatment. ResultsChemical product patent protection enhanced medicines price monopoly. The targeted medicines brought huge financial burden to Chinese citizens, especially to the rural residents. Breaking chemical product patent protection, achieving parallel importation or making generic drugs enter into the China's market, can save huge amount of medicines procurement budget for the government, and benefit the general public. ConclusionDeveloping and implementing medicines registration and intellectual property right protection strategies with public health perspective, adding continuously improved basic health insurance programs, can effectively promote the affordability of high cost medicines with significant public health, social, political and economic implications.
It is very important to develop and revise expert panel consensus on Chinese patent medical clinical application. The contents of the expert panel consensus include determination of the subject, clarity of the application scope, indications, dosage and administration, and safety of Chinese patent medicine. In the process, clinical researchers establish project team, formulate clinical management questions, select the outcome index, retrieve and make the evidence, and develop expert consensus with consensus methods strictly according to the requirements of methodology.
The number of clinical practice guidelines for traditional Chinese patent medicine has been increasing recently. However, the quality of guidelines was still low compared to international guidelines. Considering the characteristics of traditional Chinese patent medicine, we suggested the following items should be taken into account when developing traditional Chinese patent medicine guidelines: ensuring the standardized guidelines of traditional Chinese patent medicine research problem is scientific based on reliable evidence; identifying the common questions according to these research problems; understanding the strength of evidence and how to recommend correctly; inviting some experts in other fields to take part in the development of guidelines; paying more attention on the changes of disease burden and the impact of new methods and technologies when developing the guideline; paying more attention to the non-consensus opinions and evidence supporting these opinions; insisting on quality is the priority, while speed is secondary.
ObjectiveTo investigate effectiveness and safety of right vertical infra-axillary thoracotomy (RVIAT) in surgical repair for intra-cardiac anomalies combined with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 34 patients who underwent intra-cardiac correction of congenital heart defects and PDA ligation simultaneously via RVIAT in our hospital from August 2014 to August 2019. There were 25 males and 9 females with an age range of 0.5-6.1 years.ResultsThe length of incision was 3.0 (3.0, 3.5) cm. The operation time lasted 110.0 (90.0, 121.0) min. The cardiopulmonary bypass time was 45.5 (38.8, 63.5) min and the aortic cross-clamp time was 22.5 (14.8, 34.8) min. The bleeding volume was 20.0 (13.8, 20.0) mL. ICU stay time was 17.0 (5.5, 22.3) h, post-operative mechanical ventilation time was 4.0 (2.0, 6.0) h, total in-hospital cost was 46 (39, 51) thousand yuan. There was no mortality or reoperation during perioperative and follow-up period. Within the median follow-up of 636.0 days, 1 patient had minimal residual ventricular septal defect shunt while no new-onset scoliosis, funnel chest or pectus carinatum was detected. No bilateral mammary developmental asymmetry was observed in the female patients during the follow-up period. All the patients’ parents or guardians were satisfied with the right vertical infra-axillary aesthetic skin incision.ConclusionThe minimally invasive repair for intra-cardiac heart defects combined with PDA via RVIAT is a safe and effective method with minimal invasiveness and excellent cosmesis.
ObjectiveTo explore the early outcomes of the surgical treatment for patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) combined with intracardiac abnormities via right vertical infra-axillary thoracotomy (RVIAT).MethodsA total of 7 children with PDA combined with intracardiac defects underwent surgery through RVIAT at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from 2016 to 2018. There were 4 males and 3 females, with an average age of 5.3±4.5 years and weight of 18.0±11.2 kg.ResultsIn all patients, PDA was ligated before the repair of intracardiac abnormities. No patient died in hospital. All patients were followed up, with a mean follow-up time of 18.0±8.0 months. No other complications such as residual shunts, arrhythmias, hemorrhaging or wound infection occurred after operations or during the follow-up period.ConclusionRVIAT is an emerging technique used for the surgical repair of PDA combined with intracardiac defects. It yields satisfying cosmetic results, without increasing postoperative complications or mortality.
This case was a 58-year-old female patient with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and severe aortic stenosis. Upon admission, she had severe heart failure and severe edema of both lower extremities unable to lie flat. After cardiac function adjustment and under general anesthesia, she underwent a one-stop operation of PDA occlusion and transcarotid transcatheter aortic valve replacement due to the severe aortic arch stenosis which brought high risk in transfemoral artery approach. Her symptoms improved significantly, and she was discharged only 6 days after operation. At the follow-up 3 months after operation, the aortic valve transvalvular pressure gradient improved significantly, the ductus arteriosus murmur disappeared, and the patient recovered well.
A comprehensive evaluation system of Chinese patent medicine (CPM) is considered as a critical tool to measure the value of CPM. The "guideline for multi-dimensional and multi-criteria comprehensive evaluation for Chinese patent medicine" (abbreviated as guideline) has been released, proposing a comprehensive evaluation system of CPM (1st) comprising six aspects: safety, effectiveness, economy, applicability, scientificity and standardization. This paper elaborated the development method and explained the evaluation dimensions and criteria, so as to help the researchers understand and use the comprehensive evaluation system in the future when evaluating CPM.
Comprehensive evaluation research of Chinese patent medicine (CPM) is performed to demonstrate the comprehensive value of CPM from multiple dimensions and to clarify the clinical value and positioning, so as to provide references for decision-making in health or drug policies. Therefore, to standardize and promote comprehensive evaluation studies on CPM, the current guideline introduced the specific requirements on the applicable subject, basic principles, and major evaluation content, thereby providing guidance for researchers in the future.
The preferred reporting items for comprehensive evaluation of Chinese patent medicine (PRICE-CPM) were developed, and comprised six domains, 21 items and 72 sub-items. The EQUATOR collaboration network for the formulation and revision of reporting specifications was referred to and the final report list items were established by adopting the literature analysis method, the expert committee discussion and the Delphi method, and considering the characteristics of CPM evaluation.
