ABSTRACT
Objective To get well-informed of the current status of emergency training in primary hospitals in Sichuan Province and to find weaknesses in the system in order to provide scientific basis for emergency knowledge and skills training.Methods A stratified random cluster sampling method as adopted and an anonymous questionnaire survey method was conducted to investigate the basic circumstances of the current training and the training needs of 1 000 emergency medical staff in 9 regions throughout Sichuan Province.Results The scope of the survey covered emergency doctors,nurses and technicians in hospitals of Grade Ⅱ,Grade Ⅲ and below.A total of 1 000 surveys were sent out and 983 were recovered.The questionnaire completion rate was 98.3％.The respondents mainly worked for more than 10 years,most of which with Bachelor degree,junior and intermediate titles.Results of the survey showed,63.1％ Most respondents have only one or two training opportunities per year.The training methods are mainly continuing education (59.0％,580 trips),training organized within the unit (58.5％,575 trips),and training organized by health administrative units (39.3％,386 trips).The main contents of the training are:basic professional skills learning (66.7％,655 trips),basic professional theoretical study (59.2％,582 trips),and new emergency technology (42.5％,418 trips),only 32.0％ of the respondents believe that these methods meet the practical needs.The main factors that influence participation in the training were:not be arranged by employer (36.2％,356 trips);the training was different from actual work (31.6％,311 trips);no replacement for work so they couldn't join training (29.8％,293 trips).The survey showed that the most desirable way of training is:practical application (60.1％,591 trips) and the most desirable training content is:emergency first aid knowledge (73.7％,724 trips).There were significant differences in case discussion,technical observation,academic lectures,special study trainingand learning methods in hospitals of different levels (P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference in the choice of professional practice methods (P＞0.05),and the selection of training contents was in emergency first aid knowledge,general medical knowledge and prevention and treatment of chronic diseases.There was no statistical difference in the selection of training contents of knowledge,infectious disease knowledge and department management knowledge (P＞0.05).There were significant differences in the choice of nursing knowledge training (P＜0.05).Conclusion The current situation showed a lack of first-aid knowledge and skills training for emergency personnel in Sichuan Province.The present situation of skill training can't satisfy the need of their desire to participate in training.It is urgent to develop a standardized,systematic and scientific training mode to improve the emergency first aid ability of primary medical and emergency personnel.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the methods and experiences of one-stage repair of aortic coarctation.Methods During January 2009 and September 2016,31 patients underwent surgery for coarctation of aorta (COA) in our department.Of them,fifteen patients were accompanied by patent ductus arteriosus (PDA),five associated with ventricular septal defect (VSD),five with VSD and PDA,and six patients were single COA.All patients accepted one-stage repair and follow-up.The surgical strategies and follow-up results were retrospectively reviewed.Results Excision of coarctation and anastomoses was performed in 24 patients,a bypass with artificial graft was performed in 3 patients,longitudinally section transverse suture was performed in 2 patients,and aortoplasty with patch graft was used in 2 patients.Accompanied intracardiac malformations were repaired simutaneously.One patient died of low cardiac output syndrome 1 d after operation.Other patients recovered smoothly.Thirty patients were followed up from 6 months to 7 years.The anastomotic systolic pressure difference disappeared in 21 patients.Eight patients still suffered from systolic pressure difference (5-20 mmHg),but had no need of reoperation.One patient suffered from anastomotic recoarctation 2 years and 3 months after operation and the pressure difference was 48 mmHg.After exerting balloon dilatation,the pressure difference reduced to 17 mmHg.Conclusions Surgery is an effective method of COA treatment.The surgical strategies should be selected according to the characters of coarctation lesions,intracardiac malformations,and the age of patient.

ABSTRACT
Objective Provided the basis on psychological treatment for the earthquake wounded, through investigated the psychological healthy condition of them in Yushu, Qinghai Province. Method To investigated the 102 cases earthquake wounded from 15 - 18 April 2010 who transported from Yushu, Qinghai to West China hospital of Sichuan University; Accept standard: The wounded (96 cases) who could cooperated this investigative; Adopted the Hamiton anxiety scale( HAMA) to had a review investigation for the wounded in the from of talk, and used the SPSS statistics software to have the Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney test and correlation analysis for the investigation data. Results There were 55 of the 96 cases have been confirmed anxiety, HAMA > 14 points; 16 cases had serious anxiety (HAMA > 29 points); The average score in all of them equal to (17.3 ±10.8) points. And there was a remarkable difference between male and female. The age is possible have related degree with the wounded anxious. What the main in their characteristics of them was Psychic anxiety. Conclusions There was apparent anxiety of them whom came from Yushu, Qinghai, and they needed proactive psychological treatment, female、 middle-aged and elderly need more.
