ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the cases referred to a higher-level hospital from the Department of Neonatology in a primary hospital, and evaluate the efficiency of clinical works related to the referrals.Methods:Data of neonates admitted to the Department of Neonatology at Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Dabu County from January 2018 to December 2020 and referred to the superior hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 1 670 neonates were included and 128 neonates were referred.The median age of the neonates referred was 0.5 hours(0 hours, 25 days), the median gestational age was 38 + 3(29 + 1, 42 + 4) weeks, the median weight was 3 000(1 250, 4 800) g, and the transport distance was 78 km.Twenty-four cases were assessed as critical cases before the referral, 125 cases were improved and discharged after treatment in the superior hospital, and three cases died.The referral rate in 2018, 2019 and 2020 showed a downward trend year by year (10.3%, 7.6% and 4.0%, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=14.362, P=0.001). The proportion of critical cases in referral cases increased year by year (9.4%, 23.9% and 38.9%, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=9.289, P=0.010). The incidence of critical case was higher in those whose mothers didn′t have regular prenatal examination during pregnancy( χ2=5.129, P=0.032). Conclusion:The ability of neonatal treatment in primary hospitals has been improved.The neonates need to be referred and critical cases are not rare in primary hospitals.More attention should be paid to the safety and effectiveness of the regional transport network.Also, enhancing the health awareness of residents and improving the primary medical technics are important to maximize the life safety and optimal transition of newborns.
ABSTRACT
With the development and application of laparoscopic hepatectomy in major medical centers, domestic and foreign guidelines have summarized the indications, surgical techniques and operational procedures of the surgery. But in primary care facilities, where the surgical equipment are available, laparoscopic hepatectomy is performed only in a small number of cases and the progress of its application remains slow. The reasons possibly lie in the failure of a full understanding of the surgery, the lack of anatomical knowledge of laparoscopic hepatectomy, the lack of close multidisciplinary cooperation in the perioperative period and insufficient training of laparoscopic technology. In this review, we elaborate on three aspects of laparoscopic hepatectomy: preoperative planning, surgical techniques and postoperative management. Before the operation, the surgeons should fully understand the anatomical structure of the liver and select appropriate cases considering both the difficulty of operation and the surgical experience of the surgeons. During the operation, the position of the patient and the layout of the stamping card should be appropriate, and the central venous pressure needs to be well controlled in close cooperation with the anesthesiologist. The surgeons should be proficient at the techniques of liver suspension and pulling and at the use of ultrasonic knife, and select correct techniques for management of bleeding and the control of blood flow in and out of the liver. The patient should receive postoperative management with standard enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols. These experiences may help to improve the practice of laparoscopic hepatectomy in local hospitals or primary care facilities.

Primary hospitals are engaged in such responsibilities as diagnosis and treatment of endemic diseases and common illnesses of the locality, as well as relevant research work which bears more prominent importance than ever before. Given the importance of research, the hospitals are mostly plagued by such setbacks as obsolete research management concepts, poor experiences, poor perception of research, poor professional competency and lack of academic exchange among the medical workers. A primary hospital had set up a novel management mechanism, featuring " full-staff involvement, full-process supervision and full-dimensional guidance" , and " tight formal examination and tight content examination" . This mechanism has been in place since 2016 in research project management practice, achieving such progresses as significant rise in the number of research project applications, that of approved projects, and project implementation capabilities.Future improvements in this regard should be made in higher pertinence, optimized management flow and better research service system.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical value of ultrasound-guided real-time percutaneous transhepatic-cholangial or transhepatic-cholecyst drainage (PTCD) in the treatment of patients with acute obstructive cholangitis in primary hospitals. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 38 patients with acute obstructive cholangitis who underwent ultrasound-guided real-time PTCD in Tengchong People’s Hospital from February 2012 to June 2018, and among these patients, 4 had malignant biliary obstruction and cholangitis and 34 had acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis caused by hepatolithiasis. ResultsOf all patients, 30 underwent puncture of the bile duct in the right lobe of liver, 6 underwent puncture of the bile duct in the left lobe of liver, and 2 underwent puncture of the gallbladder. The success rate of first-time needle insertion was 91.2% (35/38), and the overall success rate of puncture was 100%. There were no complications such as massive hemorrhage, biliary peritonitis, and biliary-vascular fistula. At 2 weeks after surgery, 89.5% (34/38) of the patients had a bilirubin level reduced by ≥1/2, and 32 patients (84.2%) had a level of alanine aminotransferase reduced to normal. As for the 34 patients with hepatolithiasis, second-stage surgeries including bile duct exploration/cholecystolithotomy and hepatic lobectomy were performed after the infection was under control, or they were referred to superior hospitals with tube indwelling for further treatment. The 4 patients with neoplastic bile duct obstruction were referred to superior hospitals with tube indwelling, among whom 3 underwent radical surgery and 1 underwent biliary stent placement via the former deep blind fistula. ConclusionUltrasound-guided real-time PTCD can be used as an effective, simple, and safe biliary drainage technique for the early treatment of acute biliary obstruction in primary hospitals. This technique has a high success rate and low requirements for medical equipment, and therefore, it holds promise for clinical application in primary hospitals after related technical procedures are standardized.

ABSTRACT
Objectives To observe the clinical significance and application value of autologous blood transfusion in neurosurgery of primary hospital. Methods Four hundred and fourteen patients who underwent the neurosurgery operation and were subjected to intraoperative blood transfusion were selected, among whom 97 patients were subjected to autologous blood transfusion (observation group), and 317 patients were subjected to heterogenous blood transfusion (control group). The condition of intraoperative blood transfusion, changes of hemoglobin and hematocrit, blood transfusion related cost were compared between 2 groups. Results There were no statistical differences in operation time, infusion volume, rate of transfusion related complications and postoperation hemoglobin, hematocrit between observation group and control group (P>0.05). The patients in control group were infused with 189 000 ml, and the transfusion liquid volume proportion of total blood transfusion was 79.22%(189 000/238 580);13 patients in observation group were used the heterogenous blood transfusion with 5 400 ml, and the transfusion liquid volume proportion of total blood transfusion was 10.30%(5 400/52 430). Eighty-six patients (88.66%, 86/97) in observation group performed autologous blood collection and transfusion, the volume of autologous collection was 80 650 ml, and the volume of transfusion was 47 020 ml. Eleven patients in observation group did not perform autologous blood transfusion, among whom 6 patients was because of operational and mechanical reasons, and 5 patients performed collection but did not transfuse. The cost of heterogenous concentrated suspension red blood cell over 6 U was significantly higher than the cost of disposable material and injection of autologous blood:(2 287.06 ± 243.52) yuan vs. (1 595.08 ± 133.95) yuan, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The rate of heterogenous concentrated suspension red blood cell 6 U in control group was 14.83%(47/317), and the rate of over 6 U was 6.62%(21/317). Conclusions The autologous blood transfusion is safe and effective, and it is worth popularizing in neurosurgery of primary hospital. But in the process of its application, it is necessary to strengthen the user′s operating skills and ensure the quality of autologous blood transfusion.
