ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the clinical effects of arthroscopy-guided core decompression and bone grafting combined with selective arterial infusion for early stage avascular necrosis of femoral head.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2010 to December 2014, 76 patients(76 hips) diagnosed as Ficat II stage avascular necrosis of femoral head were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. In the experimental group, there were 27 males and 8 females aged from 24 to 55 years old with an average of (43.96±6.81) years, treated with arthroscopic-guided core decompression and bone grafting combined with selective arterial infusion. Along the direction of the femoral neck, an 8 mm-diameter tunnel to necrotic areas was drilled, then curettage of necrotic bone was performed under arthroscope, and the iliac bone was grafted. In the control group, there were 29 males and 12 females aged from 26 to 56 years old with an average of (44.62±7.33) years, treated with percutaneous core decompression combined with selective arterial infusion. The preoperative and postoperative Harris scores were recorded and the changes of X-rays were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were followed up with an average of 30 months. Postoperative follow-up at 12 months showed that there was significant difference in imaging outcome between two groups(<0.05), the experimental group was better than that of control group. According to Harris hip score system, at the final follow-up, Harris score of the experimental group was 86.72±4.37 on average, 6 cases got excellent results, 24 good, 4 fair and 1 poor. Harris score of the control group was 78.62±5.62 on average, 2 cases got excellent results, 20 good, 15 fair and 4 poor. After Ridit analysis, there was significant difference in the effect between the two groups(<0.05). By pairing sampletest, there was significant difference between the preoperative and postoperative Harris score in the both groups(<0.05). Between the two groups, there was no significant difference in preoperative Harris score(>0.05), but there was significant difference in postoperative Harris score(<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The two surgical procedures for early femoral head necrosis are effective. Using arthroscopic-guided core decompression method, the necrotic bone can be positioned and scraped more accurately, and can obtain better results.</p>
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of early oral fluid resuscitation on hemodynamic and tissue perfusion in dogs with severe burn shock.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Eighteen male Beagle dogs with intubation of carotid artery, jugular vein, stomach, jejunum and bladder for 24 h were subjected to a 50%TBSA full-thickness burn, then were equally divided into non fluid resuscitation (NR), oral resuscitation (OR) and intravenous resuscitation(IR) groups, (each n = 6). Dogs in IR and OR groups were given glucose-electrolyte solution (GES) by gastric tube or intravenous infusion according to Parkland formula within 24 h after burn, while those in NR group were not given any treatment. Dogs in each group were given intravenous fluid resuscitation from 24 h after burn. The mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac output (CO), systemic vascular resistance (SVR), dp/dt max of left ventricular contractility (dp/dt(max)), gastric carbon dioxide pressure (PgCO2), intestinal mucosal blood flow (IMBF), and urinary output were determined before burn (0 h) and 2, 4, 8, 24, 48 and 72 h after burn at no anaesthesia state. Mortality rate of 72 h after burn was also recorded.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>MAP, CO, dp/dt(max), IMBF greatly decreased, and SVR and PgCO2 obviously increased from 2 h after burn in each group (P < 0.01). The measurements except IMBF of IR group returned to pre-injury levels at 72 h after burn, while CO, SVR, PgCO2 and IMBF of OR group still worse compared with 0 h (P < 0.01). All measurements of NR group kept on worsen, and died with anuria within 24 h after burn. Parameters of hemodynamic and tissue perfusion of OR group were significantly superior to those of NR group, but it inferior to those of IR group. At 72 h after burn, 6 (6/6) survived in IR group, 3 (3/6) in OR group and 0 (0/6) in NR group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Although oral resuscitation with GES is not as efficient as intravenous resuscitation in a 50%TBSA burn injury, it still can promote hemodynamic, improve the tissue perfusion and reduce the mortality comparing to no resuscitation. Oral resuscitation might be an ideal alternative way of intravenous resuscitation, especially in wars or other site of mass casualties.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of oral fluid resuscitation on pulmonary vascular permeability and lung water content in burn dogs during shock stage.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Eighteen male Beagle dogs with catheterization of carotid artery and jugular vein for 24 hours were subjected to 50% TBSA full-thickness burn, then they were divided into non-fluid resuscitation (NR), oral fluid resuscitation (OR), intravenous fluid resuscitation (IR) groups, with 6 dogs in each group. Dogs in OR and IR groups were given glucose-electrolyte solution (GES) by gastric tube or intravenous infusion according to Parkland formula within 24 hours after burn, while those in NR group were not given any treatment. Dogs in each group were then given intravenous fluid for further resuscitation after 24 post burn hours (PBH). Deaths were recorded within 72 hours after burn. Mean arterial pressure (MAP), respiratory rate (RR), PaO2, extravascular lung water index (ELWI) and pulmonary vascular permeability index (PVPI) were determined before burn and at 30 mins and 4, 8, 24, 48, 72 PBH with the aid of PICCO. Dogs were sacrificed to collect lung tissue for determination of water content at 72 PBH or just before death.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All dogs died during 9-22 PBH in NR group, 3 dogs died during 25-47 PBH in OR group, and all dogs survived within 72 PBH in IR groups. Compared with those before burn, RR (44.0 +/- 5.0) times/min, ELWI (10.3 +/- 0.6) mL/kg and PVPI (6.6 +/- 0.6) were markedly increased in NR group at 8 PBH, but PaO2 and MAP were obviously decreased (P < 0.05). In OR group, RR (33.0 +/- 4.0) times/min, ELWI (8.9 +/- 0.3) mL/kg and PVPI (5.7 +/- 0.4) were significantly lower than those of NR group (P < 0.05), but higher than those of IR group [RR (26.0 +/- 3.0) times/min, ELWI (8.2 +/-0.3) mL/kg, PVPI (4.2 +/- 0.4), P < 0.05] at 8 PBH. PaO2 and MAP in OR group were higher than that in NR group (P < 0.05). Lung water content showed no statistically significant difference between OR ang IR groups (P > 0.05), which were lower than that in NR group (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Although the protective effect of oral fluid resuscitation with GES on the lung of burn dog at shock stage was inferior to intravenous fluid, it still can decrease pulmonary vascular permeability, alleviate pulmonary edema, and reduce pulmonary complication compared with no resuscitation with fluids.</p>
