Establishement for regional pelvic trauma database in Hunan Province / 中南大学学报(医学版)

Objective:To establish a database for pelvic trauma in Hunan Province,and to start the work of multicenter pelvic trauma registry.Methods:To establish the database,literatures relevant to pelvic trauma were screened,the experiences from the established trauma database in China and abroad were learned,and the actual situations for pelvic trauma rescue in Hunan Province were considered.The database for pelvic trauma was established based on the PostgreSQL and the advanced programming language Java 1.6.Results:The complex procedure for pelvic trauma rescue was described structurally.The contents for the database included general patient information,injurious condition,prehospital rescue,conditions in admission,treatment in hospital,status on discharge,diagnosis,classification,complication,trauma scoring and therapeutic effect.The database can be accessed through the internet by browser/servicer.The functions for the database include patient information management,data export,history query,progress report,video-image management and personal information management.Conclusion:The database with whole life cycle pelvic trauma is successfully established for the first time in China.It is scientific,functional,practical,and user-friendly.

Epidemiological investigation of pelvic fracture in 9 third-tier hospitals in 5 cities in Hunan / 中南大学学报(医学版)

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and treatment situation of pelvic fractures in 5 cities in Hunan, improve the treatment and provide epidemiological data for policymakers.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 65 patients with pelvic fractures were collected from 9 third-tier hospitals in Hunan from October 2012 to March 2013. The gender, age, cause, volume of blood transfusion, and prognosis were analyzed with SPSS 13.0.@*RESULTS@#There were 44 male and 21 female patients (2.10:1.00). The age ranged from11 to 86 years and 74.6% of the patients were between 20 and 59. The main cause was traffic injury (30 cases, 46.2%) and fall injury (22 cases, 33.8%). About 73.8% patients suffered associated injuries all over the body. By Tile's classification of pelvic fractures, the average blood transfusion of type A was 483.33 mL, that of type B was 1 026.92 mL and type C was 1 905.56 mL. Compared with type A, the treatment outcome of type C patients was worse.@*CONCLUSION@#Pelvic fractures are mostly caused in young and middle-aged males by high-energy. Tile C pelvic fractures need more blood transfusion and have poor prognosis. Patients had better be taken straight to municipal hospitals by expertise. Safety education for high-risk groups should be enhanced to reduce the incidence of pelvic fractures.

Study on characteristics of middle cerebral artery aneurysm in volume CT digital subtraction angiograhy / 重庆医学

Objective To study the occurrence site characteristics of middle cerebral artery aneurysm (MCAA ) in volume CT digital subtraction angiograhy(VCTDSA) .Methods The image characteristics in 72 cases of MCAA from May 2009 to January 2011 were retrospectively analyzed ,according to the running of middle cerebral artery ,the occurrence sites of aneurysm were divided into four categories :M1 segment ,M2 bifurcation ,M2 distal and M3-M5 segment ,the aneurysm number was conducted the statistics and the image characteristics were analyzed ;two neuroradiologists adopted the double-blind method to measure the MCAA angle in bifurcation of M2 segment and compared it with the bifurcation angle in the normal middle cerebral artery ,the difference between them were statistically analyzed .Results (1)M1 segment aneurysms were 7 cases(9 .70% ) ,M2 bifurcation aneurysms were 58 ca-ses(80 .56% ) ,M2 distal aneurysms were 5 cases(6 .94% ) and M3-M5 segment aneurysms were 2 cases(2 .78% ) .(2)The angle in M2 bifurcation of the normal middle cerebral artery was(99 .30 ± 22 .96)° ,M2 bifurcation aneurysm angle was(139 .26 ± 27 .61)° , the difference between them showing statistical significance (P0 .05) .(4)The M2 bifurcation angle in ruptured aneu-rysm was(133 .98 ± 30 .24)° ,which in unruptured aneurysms was(144 .53 ± 21 .81)° ,the difference between them had no statistical significance(P>0 .05) .Conclusion MCAA mainly occurred in M2 bifurcation .There is significant difference in M2 bifurcation an-gle between the aneurysm group and non-aneurysm group ,M2 bifurcation angle is increased ,the probability of aneurysm occurrence is increased .
