ABSTRACT

Objective To study the clinical effect of shenfu injection on ultrasound cardiogram in patients of acute myocardial infarction combined with pump failure.Methods Eighty patients with acute myocardial infarction combined with pump failure were divided into control group and experiment group by random digits table method with 40 cases each.The patients in control group received common drug treatment,and the patients in experiment group received common drug combined with shenfu injection treatment.The clinical effect and the change of ultrasound cardiogram after treatment were compared between the 2 groups.Results The total effective rate in experiment group was significantly higher than that in control group [82.5% (33/40) vs.50.0% (20/40)],and there was statistical difference (P < 0.05).The results of ultrasound cardiogram showed there were no statistical differences in peak E velocity,left ventricular ejection fraction,left ventricular fractional shortening and E/A before treatment between the 2 groups (P >0.05),and the indexes were significantly improved after treatment compared with those before treatment.Furthermore,the indexes in experiment group were significantly better than those in control group [(0.87 ± 0.18) m/s vs.(0.65 ± 0.22) m/s,(51.0 ± 10.2)% vs.(43.9 ± 12.1)%,(27.5 ± 6.5)% vs.(22.5 ± 5.3)%,0.86 ±0.18 vs.0.76 ±0.13],and there were statistical differences (P <0.05).Conclusion Shenfu injection may play an important role in improving prognosis,decreasing mortality for patients with acute myocardial infarction combined with pump failure.

ABSTRACT

Interference of monitored electrocardiogram (ECG) is a common event in intensive care units and operation theaters. Artifacts in the ECG tracing can resemble serious arrhythmia, thus leading to unnecessary usage of antiarrhythmics or electrical defibrillation. In addition, ECG artifacts may lead to serious hemodynamic consequences secondary to intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) trigger failure. We report a rare event of IABP failure due to ECG artifact, which appeared on placement of the transthoracic echocardiography probe over the chest. Subsequent evaluation revealed potential current leakage from echocardiography machine secondary to earthing defect in the machine.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To determine the intranasal causes of failed dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) and the effects of transcanalicular diode laser-assisted revision surgery. METHODS: Twenty-four patients (29 eyes) who underwent revision surgery for a failed DCR at the Department of Ophthalmology, Ansan Hospital, Korea University between March 2009 and February 2011 were included in the present retrospective study. The intranasal causes of failed DCR, the time of symptoms such as epiphora and discharge after DCR, success rates of revision surgeries and follow-up periods were evaluated. RESULTS: Membranous obstruction was found in 25 eyes (86.2%) and was accompanied with granuloma in 10 eyes; these were the most common causes of failed DCR. The mean time for symptom development after DCR was 14.6 months, the success rate of the first revision surgery was 82.1% and good results were obtained in 5 eyes after the second revision surgery. Recurrence developed in 2 eyes, but symptoms improved after the lateral tarsal strip procedure. CONCLUSIONS: Membranous obstruction was the most common intranasal cause of failed DCR and transcanalicular diode laser-assisted revision surgery produced good results. Additionally, in patients with persistent epiphora following anatomically-patent revisional surgery, lacrimal pump failure due to lower eyelid laxity should be considered and corrected.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze causes of death and risk factors of acute myocardial infarction(AMI)、Methotis 118 AMI patients who died f selected from 1252 hospitalized patients with AMI from January 2003 to June 2008)were retrospectively enrolled for analysis of risk factors and death causes.Resuits The overall mortality of hospitalized patients with AMI was 9.42%(118/1252).The mortality rate in the males was 8.91%(84/943)while in the females was 11.00%(34/309)which was higher than the males but there was no statistical difieFence (P=0.2739).Mortality rate rose along with age and showed significant statistical difference(P<0.0001)among different age group[<40 yrs:6.45%(2/31),40~54:2.56%(6/234),55~64:5.11%(16/313),≥65:13.95%(94/674)].Pump failure occurred in 77 cases(65.25%)which was the main cause of death,cardiac arrest occurred in 21 cases(17.80%)and heart rupture in 13 cases(11.02%).There existed other causes of death including cerebral hemorrhage.digestive tract bleeding and pneumonia in 7 cases(5.93%).The mortality of patients with PCI was 4.24%(39/920)while23.80%(79/332)of those witbout PCI(P<0.0001).Rate of cardiac rupture was 1.04%(13/1252),2.91%(9/309)in females and 0.42%(4/943)in males(P<0.0001).The time was<24 h(23.72%.28/118)when death occurred from onset,24 h~1 week(55.93%,66/118)and 1~4 week (20.34%,24/118).There was no statistical difference of mortality related to different infarction locations[antior 12.47%(59/473),anteroseptal 9.23%(12/130),inferior 6.73%(28/416),lateral 8.70%(4/46),ventricle postwall 5.97%(4/67),and ST-segmental elevated myocardial infarction 9.17%(11/120)(P=0.0852)].Conclusions There is a high mortality in aged patients with AMl with heart failure as the most common cause of death which usually occurs at early stage of AMI.The females have more cardiac ruptures than the males.PCI significantly decreases rates of mortality and cardiac rupture.Moreover.gender and location of AMI might be another important risk factor which affect mortality.

ABSTRACT

To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of dacryoscintigraphy, we examined Hones dye test and dacryoscintigraphy in 24 eyes of 18 patients who were suspected to have junctional block in lacrimal drainage system. Among 18 eyes that were negative to Jones I dye test, 3 showed punctal stenosis and 6 typical pattern of lax lid and 2 partial obsturction of nasolacrimal duct on dacryoscintigraphy. In evaluation of lacrimal drainage system, physiological aspect is as important as anatomical information since lacrimal pumping action of lid and tear flow as well as the patency of lacrimal passage contribute to the lacrimal drainage. Compared to Jones dye test, dacryoscintigraphy is more useful with certain advantages : It gives less discomfort to patients, provides anatomical information and does not depend on examiner`s skills.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effects of intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) support in the emergency interventional procedures on pump failure or cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods Group A included 21 patients with IABP support during the emergent interventional procedures, and group B included 66 patients without IABP. The two groups were compared for clinical criteria and in-hospital events or complications.Results No significant differences were noted between the two groups witch regard to baseline age, gender, onset of chest pain, timing of intervention, location of AMI, the number of coronary artery diseases, individual infarct-related artery, and TIMI grade before intervention. The degree of pump failure was significantly worse in group A than in group B. In a follow-up period of in-hospital, mortality and revascularization in-hospital were lower in the patients with IABP than in the patients without IABP. Conclusion The combination of early IABP and successful emergency coronary intervention is associated with improved survival in patients with pump failure or cardiogenic shock complicating AMI.
