ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the impact of different pacing sites in hemodynamic and cardiovascular events after restoration of spontaneous circulation.Methods A total of 76 patients with-in hospital cardiac arrest occurred from November 2010 to January 2014 were confirmed by electrionic device monitoring or electrocardiogram and they received cardiopulmonary resuscitation,and their ages were over 18 years.Patients with end-stage of various disease,malignancy and cardiac arrest due to incurable diseases or debility of physical conditions were excluded.The 76 patients were divided into two groups according to pacing site checked by X-ray fluoroscopy in emergency rescue unit:right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group [n =36,male 26 cases,female 10 cases,age (57.31 ± 16.65) years] and right ventricular apex pacing group [n =40,22 male cases and 18 female cases,age (60.43 ± 15.48) years].All patients' QRS duration were measured by ECG after pacemaker implantition and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),left ventricular short axis reduced rate (FS),heart rate (HR),cardiac index (CI) were tested by bedside echocardiography and non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring was used during the early to middle stage.All the hemodynamic variables and the cardiac events were observed after spontaneous circulation recovery.All the data were analyzed by SPSS version 13.0 statistical software.Results There were no significant differences in age,gender,the primary disease,the time from cardiac arrest to spontaneous circulation restoration and dosage of epinephrine (P ＞ 0.05).In comparison with right ventricular apex pacing group,LVEF,FS,HR,CI were higher in right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group [(0.46 ± 0.04)％ vs.(0.44 ±0.05)％,(0.34±0.05) vs.(0.32±0.04),(0.04±0.46) L/minvs.(3.47±0.46) L/min,(0.46±0.29) L/ (min · m2) vs.(2.46 ±0.26) L/ (min · m2),P ＜ 0.05] and right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group had shorter QRS duration than right ventriclular apex pacing group [(128.25 ± 6.06) ms vs.(151.93 ± 8.99) ms,P ＜ 0.05]; fewer atrial fibrilation event was detected in right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group after restoration of spontaneous circulation than that in right ventricular apex pacing group.But incidences of cardiac failure and thrombus were not different between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The right ventriclular outflow trace pacing resulted in better hemodynamic and fewer atrial fibrilation after restoration of spontaneous circulation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effects of an optimized resuscitation bundle on prognosis of emergency patients with septic shock.Methods 65 patients with septic shock,admitted into emergency intensive care unit (ICU),were randomly divided into the treatment group(treated by an optimized resuscitation bundle)and the control group(treated by surviving sepsis campaign classics methods)by using random number table.The scores of sepsis-related organ failure assessment(SOFA) scores,the vasoactive agent application times,the mechanical ventilation times,the stay days of ICU,and 28-day mortality of the two groups were observed and compared.Results 3,7 day after erollment the SOFA score of the treatment group was (9.1 ± 2.5) points,(8.2 ± 2.8) points,respectively,which was lower than that of the control group[(10.1 ± 3.3) points,(9.5 ± 3.1) points] at the same time(t =4.52,3.99,all P ＜ 0.05) ; 8-day mortality rate of the treatment group was 28.1％,which was lower than that of the control group (48.5％) (x2 =12.84,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Application of an early optimized resuscitation bundle can significantly improve the prognosis of emergency patients with septic shock.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP) on oxygen utiliza-tion coefficient in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS). Methods 28 ARDS patients with me-chanical ventilation were studied. Catheter of central vein was laid. Increment levels of PEEP(0,5, 10, 15 and 20cmH2O) were applied sequentially. Hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism parameters were measured and calcula-tion of O2 UC [O2 UC = (SaO2 -SvO2.)/SaO2] were carried out respectively. O2 UC in 30 normal subject groups were carried out. Results Arterial oxygen tension(PaO2) increased significantly(P < 0.05) at PEEP 5cmH2O. Oxygen u-tilization coefficient (O2 UC), heart rate(HR) and mean blood pressure (MBP) were not significantly different (P >0.05) at PEEP 10cmH2O. At PEEP 15cmH2 O, O2UC and HR increased significantly (P < 0.05), but M BP reduced obviously(P < 0.05). Conclusions Too high PEEP can result in oxygen utilization coefficient of ARDS patient de-acend furthur, can not really correct oxygen difieiency condition in patients' organization cell. The optimal PEEP should be found, and blood capacity should be appropriately increased.
