ABSTRACT
Objective To restrospectively analyze the risk factors for blood transfusion during ce-sarean section and neonate outcomes. Methods A total of 291 parturients ( 60 cases with blood transfusion during surgery and 231 cases without blood transfusion during surgery) who underwent cesarean section from November 2016 to March 2017 in our hospital were selected. The significant covariates in one-way analysis of variance were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. The odds ratio ( OR) and 95％ confidence interval ( CI) were calculated. The risk factors for blood transfusion during cesarean section were identified, and neonate outcomes were analyzed. Results Placenta increta, placenta accrete and pernicious placenta pre-via were the risk factors for blood transfusion during cesarean section, with OR value ( 95％ CI ) 13. 5 (2. 6-56. 8), 6. 1 (2. 1-11. 6) and 3. 3 (1. 6-8. 6), respectively. The prolonged gestational age was a protective factor, and the OR value ( 95％ CI) was 0. 3 ( 0. 2-0. 5) . The duration of operation, anesthesia time and length of hospital stay were significantly prolonged in blood transfusion group as compared with non-blood transfusion group ( P<0. 05) . The body weight and 1-min Apgar score of newborns were signifi-cantly lower in blood transfusion group than in non-blood transfusion group. Conclusion Placenta increta, placenta accrete and pernicious placenta previa are the risk factors for blood transfusion during cesarean sec-tion. Blood transfusion is not helpful for neonate outcomes.
ABSTRACT
Objective To determine the risk factors for development of succinylcholine-induced postoperative myalgia.Methods One hundred and fifty-five patients,aged 18-64 yr,of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,with body mass index of 20-30 kg/m2,scheduled for elective craniofacial surgery,were included in the study.Total intravenous anesthesia with propofol or combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia with sevoflurane was performed during surgery.The patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether or not myalgia occurred within 24.h after surgery:myalgia group and non-myalgia group.Factors including gender,age,body weight,duration of surgery,method of anesthesia,dose of succinylcholine,preinjection of lidocaine or nondepolarizing muscular relaxants during induction of anesthesia,use of hormone (dexamethasone or methylprednisolone) and nonsteroidal analgesics (parecoxib sodium) during surgery,and consumption of fentanyl were recorded.The risk factors of which P values were less than 0.05 would enter the multivariate logistic regression analysis to stratify the risk factors for development of succinylcholine-induced postoperative myalgia.Results Forty-one patients developed postoperative myalgia,and the incidence of myalgia was 27.2％.The results of logistic analysis indicated that succinylcholine ＜ 1.5 mg/kg and no preinjection of lidocaine were closely correlated with the development of postoperative myalgia induced by succinylcholine.Conclusion Succinylcholine＜1.5 mg/kg and no preinjection of lidocaine are the risk factors for development of succinylcholine-induced postoperative myalgia in the patients.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Enriching material for bone marrow stem cells is a current research hotspot. Preparation and screening of a new type of bone marrow stem cells-enriched material is crucial for the development of tissue engineering and clinical applications. OBJECTIVE:To observe the surface character and effect of a new type of bone marrow stem cells-enriched material on enriching bone marrow stem cells of decalcified bone matrix decorated with poly-L-lysine by selective cellretention technology. METHODS:Decalcified bone matrix was decorated with poly-L-lysine as the scaffold material. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were col ected by using selective cellretention technology. Control group was decalcified bone matrix and experimental groups were Decalcified bone matrix decorated with poly-L-lysine at different concentrations (0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%) with freeze-drying method. Material components were analyzed by Raman spectrum and infrared spectrum. Pore size, porosity, surface and cross section were observed under three-dimension video microscope and scanning electron microscope. The number of bone marrow nucleated cells, fibroblast colony-forming units and platelets were counted pre-and post-enrichment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Decalcified bone matrices were covered with wel-distributed and dense poly-L-lysine. The poly-L-lysine/decalcified bone matrix had a high porosity with much more internal y connected pores. After enrichment with enriched material prepared by 0.1%poly-L-lysine, the number of bone marrow nucleated cells, fibroblast colony-forming units and platelets were increased (3.18±0.31), (5.25±1.40) and (3.88±0.68) times, respectively;the binding efficiency were (53±12)%, (73±13)%and (34±10)%, respectively;the selective rate of fibroblast colony-forming units was 1.41±0.34. The new constructed poly-L-lysine/decalcified bone matrix has good three-dimension space with high selective retention. It is an effective enriching material for bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the influence of different end-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane on transcranial electrical four-limb muscle motor evoked potential (MEP) monitoring. Methods Twenty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱpatients aged 23-62 years undergoing craniotomy were enrolled. Triangular muscle, biceps brachii muscle, triceps brachii muscle, brachioradialis muscle, extensor digitorum communis muscle, abductor pollicis brevis abductor digiti minimi muscle, rectus femoris muscle, tibialis anterior muscle, gastrocnemius muscle and abductor hallucis were selected for MEPs recording. Sevoflurane was introduced at 0.5, 0.75, 1.0 and then 1.3 MAC (15 min each), and the effects on MEPs were studied. Results ①Maximum MEP amplitude was observed at abductor pollicis brevis muscle in upper limb and abductor hallucis muscle in lower limb at baseline and 0.5 MAC. Up to 1.0 MAC, there was no significant difference in MEP amplitude among extensor digitorum communis muscle, abductor pollicis brevis and abductor digiti minimi muscle. ②The success rate of MEP recording from abductor pollicis brevis muscle and abductor hallucis muscle was 100% during the administration of 0.5-1.0 MAC sevoflurane. ③The MEP amplitude was decreased and the latency was increased in a sevoflurane dose-dependent manner. Conclusions Abductor pollicis brevis muscle and abductor hallucis muscle were suitable for MEP monitoring during the administration of 0.5-1.0 MAC sevoflurane.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effects of sevoflurane,isoflurane and desflurane on transcranial electrical motor evoked potentials(MEPs)in patients undergoing neurosurgery.Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 18-64 yr undergoing neurosurgery were randomly divided into 3 groups(n = 20 each): sevoflurane group,isoflurane group and desflurane group.BIS value and MEPs were monitored.The end-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane,isoflurane and desflurane were adjusted and maintained at 0.50,0.75,1.00 and 1.30 MAC respectively for at least 15 min during 6 stimuli delivered at 1000 Hz and 300 V lasting for 75 μs.The amplitudes and latency of MEPs and BIS value were recorded before administration(baseline)and the each stable state (T1-4).The failure rate of MEPs was also recorded.Results The amplitude of MEPs and BIS value were significantly decreased at T1.2 and the latency of MEPs was prolonged at T1-4 in desflurane group compared with sevoflurane and isoflurane groups(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the amplitudes and latency of MEPs and BIS value between group sevoflurane and isoflurane(P＞0.05).The failure rates of MEPs were 0 at baseline,T1 and T2,0,5% and 20% at T3 ,and 5%,20% and 45% at T4 in sevoflurane,isoflurane and desflurane groups respectively.The failure rate of MEPs was significantly higher in desflurane group than in sevoflurane and isoflurane groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion Desflurane has greater suppressive effect on MEPs than sevoflurane and isoflurane.1.00 MAC of sevoflurane and isoflurane,while 0.75-1.00 MAC of desflurane may be the suitable end-tidal concentration for MEP monitoring.

ABSTRACT
Objective To analysis the causes of cardic arrest during liver transplantation, and investigate the preventive measures. Methods Clinical records about 5 patients with cardiac arrest in liver transplant were studied retrospectively. Results Occurrence of cardiac arrest was 2.1 % (5/240). All the events happened at 3-6 min after graft reperfusion, and arrest lasted 3-8 min. Two patients died of resuscitation failure. After graft reperfusion, CVP and MPAP were much high in 5 patients. All of them had hypothermia and hypocalcemia. Three of them also had acidosis and two complicated with hyperkalemia. In one case, the difference between PaCO_2 and P_ETCO_2 was 47 mm Hg. Conclusion Many factors, such as disturbances of electrolyte and acid-base equilibrium or hypothermia, seemed to have some contribution to cardiac arrest occurrence after reperfusion. Various methods should be used to counter it.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the changes in peripheral?1-adrenergic receptor sensitivity in a rat model of chronic high spinal cord injury (SCI)Methods Thirty male 18-week-old Wistar rats weighing 290-310g were randomly divided into 2 groups: SCI group (n=24) and control group (C n=6) . The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 2 % pentobartital 50 mg?kg-1 and subjected to spinal cord injury (SCI) at T4 according to modified Allen's method. Successful high SCI was confirmed by bilateral hindlimb flaccid paralysis. Three weeks after SCI the animals were further divided into 4 subgroups (n=6) receiving 4 different doses of phenylephrine 1, 2, 3 and 4 ?g?kg-1 i.v. Femoral artery was connulated for BP (SBP and DBP) and HR monitoring. HR and SBP and DBP were recorded before and after i.v. phenylephrine injection. In control group phenylephrine (PE) 1,2,3 and 4 ?g?kg-1 were injected i.v. successively at an 1h interval. % changes in HR, SBP and DBP were calculated: % change = (post-injection value- baseline value) / baseline value. Results The animals lost weight and HR was significantly slower and SBP and DBP were significantly lower 3 weeks after SCI as compared with control group. In both group C and SCI, HR was significantly decreased and SBP and DBP were significantly increased after i.v. PE injection as compared to the baseline value before PE. The % changes in HR, SBP and DBP were significantly greater in group SCI than in group C. Conclusion In a rat model of chronic high SCI, peripheral?1-adrenergic receptor sensitivity is significantly increased 3 weeks after high SCI.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To assess the effects of different fluid therapies on myocardial function,blood-spinal cord barrier and water content of spinal cord after acute high level spinal cord injury(SCI) in rats.Methods: Thirty-two male SD rats, weighing (300?20) g, were anesthetized intraperitoneally with pentobarbital (40 mg/kg). A cervical laminectomy extending from C6-T1 was performed and the experimental acute cervical 7 spinal cord injury model was created by modified Allen’s method,and then the rats were randomly divided into 4 groups(n=8): control group(C group) with no fluid resuscitation, 7.5% hypertonic saline group(HS group), 6% hydroxyethyl starch group(HES group) and banlanced solution group (BS group).Fifteen minutes after injury, rats of each treatment groups were given (iv. at 4 ml/kg) above-mentioned fluids in 4 min,then continuously infused at a rate of 10 ml?kg -1 ?h -1 over for 30 min.MAP,HR,left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP),and ?dp/dt max were recorded at 5,15 and 30 min.At 30 min, 0.5% Evan's blue(EB) 1 ml was injected iv.Two hours later the animals were sacrificed and the injured segments of spinal cords were removed for determination of water content and EB content.Results:After SCI there were no differences of HR at different time points in each group. At 5 min,HS significantly increased MAP,LVSP and ?dp/dt max compared with control group(P
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the changes of ? 1 -adrenergic receptors expression in a high-level spinal cord injury (SCI) rat model,providing information for studying the mechanisms of severe hypertension of autonomic dysreflexia.Methods: Adult male Wistar rats were divided into 2 groups: sham-lesion group(n=6) and SCI group(n=36). Severe spinal crush injury was induced at T 4 using modified Allens device in SCI group, while sham-lesion group received laminectomy at T 4 only.The expression of ? 1 -adrenergic receptors mRNA in different segments of spinal cord:injured segment(I), above(A) and below(B) the injured site, were measured by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) 1 d, 3 d, 7 d, 2 weeks, 3 weeks and 4 weeks after SCI. Results: Compared with sham-lesion group,the express of ? 1 -adrenergic receptors mRNA in group A decreased 3 d after SCI and dropped to the least 1 week later,and restored to the normal level 2 weeks later.The impairment of ? 1 -adrenergic receptors mRNA expression in group I occured immediately after SCI and hit the lowest value 3 d later,and did not recover to the nomal 4 weeks later.Decrease of ? 1 -adrenergic receptors mRNA expression in group B were detected 1 d after SCI,but began to increase on 3 d and exceeded that of group C 4 weeks later.Conclusion: In chronic SCI rat models ? 1 -adrenergic receptors expression increases below the level of SCI,which might be a contributing factor to the severe hypertension of autonomic dysreflexia.
