ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the efficacy of transilluminated powered phlebectomy (TIPP) and endovanous laser treatment(EVLT) combined with high ligation on treating varicose great saphenous vein.Methods A total of 238 cases with varicose great saphenous vein were divided into TIPP group (119 cases)and EVLT group (119 cases).The incidence of postoperative recovery and complications of the two groups were compared.Results There was no significant difference between the two groups on the surgery duration and postoperative recovery incident(P ＞ 0.05);the saphenous nerve injury incidence and skin impairment incidence of the TIPP group were significantly less than that of EVLT group (P ＜ 0.05);the amount of bleeding,subcutaneous hematoma incidence,and amount of surgical incision of TIPP group were significantly more than that of the EVLT group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions TIPP and EVLT combined with high ligation are two effective minimally invasive surgical approaches on treating varicose great saphenous vein.EVLT is with less surgical incision and less bleeding,and is more applicable for mild case;TIPP is with less operative trauma,and is more applicable for severe case.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of attentional bias training on mood and disease uncertainty in anxious patients with coronary artery intervention treatment during transition period. Methods A total of 82 anxious patients with coronary artery intervention treatment during transition period were assigned into control group (28 cases), escape-negative-training group(27 cases) and positive-direction-training group (27 cases) by random digits table method. Patients in control group only received routine psychological counseling, while patients in escape-negative-training group and positive-direction-training group also received spot-type attentional bias training(200 trails/time,10-15 minutes/time,2 times/week, all 4 weeks in the two groups;the negative and neutral words between the probe points were 20%and 80%in escape-negative-training group,and positive and neutral words between the probe points were 100%and 0 in positive-direction-training group). All the patients were evaluated by Stroop test, Self-evaluation of Anxiety Scale (SAS), Attention to Positive and Negative Information Scale (APNIS), Profile Of Mood States (POMS) and Illness Uncertainty Scale (IUS). Results After intervention, 21.4%(6/28) was alleviated in the control group, while respective 70.4%(19/27) and 44.4%(12/27) in escape-negative-training group and positive-direction-training group (χ2=8.15, P=0.003). There were no significant differences in SAS, POMS, Stroop test, APNIS and IUS among three groups (P>0.05). After intervention, the SAS, negative emotion scores in POMS (tension-anxiety, depression-dejection, fatigue-inertia, baffling-confusion) and IUS were lower in escape-negative-training group than those in control group(Q=3.79-7.58, all P0.05). Conclusions Attentional bias training could improve the anxiety symptoms and reduce illness uncertainty in anxious patients with coronary artery intervention treatment during transition period. Escape-negative-training is more effective in reducing patients′ negative mood and alleviating anxiety symptoms than the positive-direction-training.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of TAPAS intravascular closed catheter-directed thrombolysis combined with endovascular intervention treatment for Cockett syndrome complicated with deep venous thrombous of lower limbs. Methods The clinical data of 31 patients of Cockett syndrome complicated with deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were treated with TAPAS intravascular closed catheter-directed thrombolysis combined with endovascular intervention.Results Thirty patients were placed self-expandable stent,and 1 patient was treated by balloon dilation.The pain disappeared and the swelling decreased postoperatively.Twenty-two cases was cured (70.97%, 22/31), 7 cases showed excellence (22.58%, 7/31), and 2 cases showed effective (6.45%, 2/31), and there were no invalid patients. There was no pulmonary embolism and bleeding event during treatment. Conclusions The TAPAS intravascular closed catheter-directed thrombolysis combined with endovascular intervention treatment for Cockett syndrome complicated with deep venous thrombous of lower limbs is an effective and safe technique with satisfactory short term result.However,the long term clinical effect need to be further researched.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the efficacy of endovenous laser combined with high ligation and traditional operation in treatment of great saphenous vein varicose.Methods One hundred and fifty-six cases of great saphenous vein varicose were divided into endovenous laser combined with high ligation(observation group,78 cases)and traditional operation(control group,78 cases)by table of random digits.The incidence of postoperative recovery and complications between two groups were compared.Result The operation time,amount of bleeding in operation,incidence of affected limb hematoma in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group[(42±5)min vs.(64±8)min,(30±8)ml vs.(50±5)ml,5.13％(4/78)vs.11.54％(9/78),P＜0.05].There was no significant difference between two groups of the postoperative recovery incidence and saphenous nerve injury incidence(P＞0.05).There was no affected limb deep venous thrombosis and great saphenous vein recanalization 1 year after operation.Conclusion Compared with the traditional operation,endovenous laser combined with high ligation has the same clinical efficacy,but less operation time,less amount of bleeding in operation,and less complication.
