Clinical value of bedside ultrasonography used by ICU doctor in the diagnosis of traumatic hematocelia / 中国基层医药

Objective To explore the value of bedside ultrasound used by ICU doctor in the rapid diagnosis of traumatic abdominal,and to evaluate the advantage of bedside ultrasound in the treatment decision.Methods 60 patients with traumatic abdominal blood in our hospital admitted to the ICU were selected.All patients were checked through bedside ultrasonography by physicians with professional training of ICU,bedside ultrasound and abdominal CT and abdominal flat piece of traumatic hematocelia,and compared the diagnosis of the time of the bedside ultrasound,abdominal CT and abdominal X -ray and ultrasound physician ultrasound examination.Results The difference of abdominal blood detection rate between bedside ultrasonography and abdominal computed tomo-graphy (CT)had no statistical significance (P >0.05);bedside ultrasonography of abdominal blood detection rate was higher than plain film of the abdomen,the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =73.346,P <0.01);bed-side ultrasound received a preliminary diagnosis of time -consuming (4.37 ±2.1)min was significantly lower than that of the examination of ultrasound physicians (13.86 ±5.6)min,abdominal CT (22.13 ±6.9)min and abdominal plain film (28.19 ±7.32)min,the differences were statistically significant (t =3.947,14.607,21.139,26.338,all P <0.01 ).Conclusion By the professional training of ICU physicians for bedside ultrasound traumatic blood abdominal patients can make a more accurate diagnosis,time -shorten,more accord with the requirement of treating critically ill patients in ICU,which has important clinical value for trauma abdominal blood in early rapid diagnosis and treatment.

Electrical and auricular acupuncture for patients with acute spinal cord injury / 中国康复理论与实践

@# ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of electrical acupuncture therapy through adhesive surface electrodes and concomitant auricular acupuncture therapy on acute spinal cord injury.MethodsA total of 56 acute spinal cord injury patients with American Spinal Injury Association(ASIA) impairment grading of A and B were recruited into this study.They were randomly divided into the acupuncture and control groups.In the acupuncture group,electrical acupuncture therapy via the adhesive surface electrodes and auricular acupuncture were applied.Rehabilitation therapy was also provided to the patients during acupuncture therapy.In the control group,only rehabilitation therapy was provided to the patients.The ASIA neurologic and functional scores and the Functional Independence Measure(FIM) scores were assessed during the time of admission,hospital discharge,and 1-year postinjury follow-up.There were no adverse events.ResultsThere were significant improvements in neurologic(sensory and motor),functional,and FIM scores in the acupuncture group compared with the control either when hospital discharged or 1-year postinjury follow-up.There was no adverse events.ConclusionThe early use of concomitant auricular and electrical acupuncture therapies are effective and safe in treating acute spinal cord injury.
