ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of a variety dosage of dexmedetomidine on circulatory and cognitive func?tions in elderly patients who underwent hip orthopedic surgery. Methods A total of 120 patients who underwent hip ortho?pedic surgery, with age over 65 years old were recruited from 06/2013 to 09/2014 and were administered intravenously dex?medetomidine after epidural anesthesia. Based on the dosage of dexmedetomidine, patients were randomly divided into 3 groups with 40 cases in each group:Group A were given 0.2μg·h-1·kg-1 dexmedetomidine;Group B were given dexmedeto?midine 0.4μg · h-1 · kg-1, and group C were given 0.6μg · h-1 · kg-1. The heart rate (HR),mean arterial pressure (MAP), and pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) were recorded at 6 time points, including the time entering operating room (T0), 10 min (T1), 20 min (T2) after drug administration, the time of drug withdrawal (T3), 10 min after drug withdrawal (T4) and the terminal time of surgery (T5) respectively. Cognitive function was evaluated by mini-mental state examination (MMSE) at the time points of 24 hours before surgery (t1), 12 hours (t2), 24 hours (t3), and 72 hours (t4) after surgery. Results All 3 groups of pa?tients show no significant difference of MAP, HR and SpO2 at T0 (P>0. 05).A significant decrease in MAP and HR were ob?served in Group C at T2 and T3 time points compared to those in Group A or Group B (P 0.05). However, compared to that in group A or group C, MMSE increased significantly at time point T2, T3 in group B (P<0.05). In addition, compared to group A or group C, the pa?tients in group B exhibited lower incidence of postoperative cognitive function disorder (P < 0.05). Conclusion Continu?ous intravenous infusion of Dexmedetomidine can be used in elderly patient who underwent hip orthopedic surgery at the dose of 0.4μg·h-1·kg-1 safely with little interference to circulatory and cognitive function in perioperative period.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study and evaluate the feasibility and clinical effects of the treatment of premature ejaculation with modified Masters-Johnson sensate focus exercise.Methods 100 male outpatients with premature ejaculation were divided randomly into two equal groups randomly.The experiment group was treated with the modified Masters-Johnson sensate focus exercise and oral sertraline 50 mg/day for 8 weeks.The control group was given oral sertraline 50 mg/day for 8 weeks.The scores were evaluated with CIPE-5 and compared between the groups before and after the treatment and after the flown-up for 6 moths.Results After treatment,the score of CIPE-5 were better in experiment group than that in control group (P＜0.01).The effective rate 92％ (46/50) in experiment group was significantly higher than that in control group 68％ (34/50) (P＜0.01).The relapse cases (6 cases) were significantly lower than that in the control group (22 cases) (P＜0.01).Conclusions The method of Masters-Johnson sensate focus exercise for treatment of premature ejaculation has a good curative effect,and low recurrence rate,which is worth the clinical promotion.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of nifedipi ne ,an endothelin antagonist,in acute renal function impairment caused by ESWL. Methods 60 cases of renal stone underwent anaesthesia-free ESWL were radomely assigned into 2 groups,the nifedipine group and the control (n=30 each).In the former group,nifedipine was given 3 days before ESWL.Plas ma endothelin,urinary ? 2-microglobulin,and urinary Tamm-Horsfall protein we re assessed to evaluate the renal function. Results In t he controls,it was a significant increase of plasma endothelin and urinary ? 2-MG(P
