RESUMEN
Objective:To understand the current status of perioperative physical prevention of venous thrombosis in patients undergoing total knee and hip replacement and to analyze the barriers to clinical transformation of evidence and improve measures.Methods:Based on the evidence-based continued quality improvement model, then building a team, systematically searching, evaluating and summarizing evidences, establishing review indicators and review methods according to FAME principles (feasibility, appropriately, meanfulness, effectiveness), selecting patients undergoing total knee and hip replacement, nurses, and doctors who underwent total knee and hip replacement surgery from April 30 to August 31, 2020 in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital as the review objects, and conducting a baseline review according to the review indicators one by one, and analyzing the obstacle factors and improvement measures based on the review results.Results:This study included 29 best evidences, and 17 review indicators were formulated based on the best evidences. Among them, the clinical compliance rate of 5 review indicators were greater than 80%, and the clinical compliance rate of 12 review indicators were less than 80%. The main obstacles were due to the imperfect venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk assessment and management process at the system level, and the low level of knowledge of VTE prevention and management among medical staff at the individual level.Conclusions:This study was based on the best evidences, scientifically and systematically developed clinical review indicators, rigorously and comprehensively analyzed obstacles, and constructed targeted improvement measures, not only for the future physical prevention of perioperative venous thrombosis in patients with total knee and hip replacement surgery transformation provides the basis but also can further promote clinical practice changes and continuous quality improvement.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: With the extensive application of small animal imaging and imaging studies, it requires the investigators to master the cross-sectional anatomy of mice, but the anatomy of mouse nasal cavity and sinuses cannot be obtained through vivisection.OBJECTIVE: To establish a highly precise serial colorful sectional image data set of mice using digital virtual human technology.METHODS: An adult male Balb/c mouse was killed for freezing embedded using modified Kawamoto's method and was then serially scanned at 5 μm of thickness by Leica CM3600XP cryostat microtome. The sectional images were photographed with a 24 million pixels Nikon D750 camera and stored as JPG files. All images were preliminarily registered by manually cropping the images based on the edge of block surface using software photoshop 7.0. Then, the image size, brightness and registration were corrected and adjusted, and the format of the images was unified as TIFF. The data set was imported to Amira 6.0 and was registered again with least square method. The quality of the data set was evaluated by three-dimensional reconstruction. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 6034 original images with a size of 87 GB were captured. After cropping, adjusting and registration, the final size was 184 G. The mouse three-dimensional reconstruction model was satisfactory. To conclude, the data set established using the method and system mentioned above is characterized by high resolution and high-fidelity, which might facilitate the further study of the precise anatomy of mice and other fundamental experiments.
RESUMEN
3D reconstruction technologies have been widely used in medical diagnostic assist, surgical simulation, anatomy teaching, etc. The resolution of traditional imaging data such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) cannot meet the needs of life science research. Continuous sectioning technology can provide accurate and high-resolution information for the vast majority of tissues, which make it become a valuable method in the research and exploration of microstructures studies. With the development of microscopy and image processing techniques, significant advances have been made in the small-scale serial sections-based 3D reconstruction technologies. This enables the analysis of sample morphology and tissue function, as well as a more complete assessment of the structure of the tissue. Therefore, this technology has led to profound changes in the fields of cell and tissue biology. In this paper, the common small-scale serial sections-based 3D reconstruction technologies were compared and reviewed.
RESUMEN
The lymphatic system plays an important role in human health and disease. In addition to a role in the immune response, the lymphatics can also serve as a pathway for cancer metastasis.Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common cancers.In the case where the primary focus has been controlled, cervical lymph node metastasis is one of the most important factors affecting the prognosis of head and neck cancer.Thus, understanding the anatomy of the lymphatic system is of paramount importance in predicting cancer metastasis and to perform proper lymph node dissection in cancer patients.The objective of this review is to summarize current imaging approaches that facilitate both basic science and clinical investigations of lymphatic vasculature.Mutation analysis of the laryngeal lymphatic system may provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of HNSCC.
