Ethical Problems and Coping Strategies in the Application of Orthopedic Implants / 中国医学伦理学

The extensive use of orthopedic implants in clinical practice has improved the therapeutic effect of osteopathic patient, brought good news to the health of patients. The use of orthopedic implants can help osteopathic patients recover organ functions, However, orthopedic implants are high-risk medical devices and need to be implanted into the human body for a long time. In the process of diagnosis and treatment, it is found that there are ethical problems, such as the informed consent of patients, excessive medical treatment and improper postoperative care leads to adverse events. In view of the above problems, this paper proposed to protect the rights and interests of patients by strengthening the communication between doctors and patients, standardize the informed consent process, standardizing medical behavior, avoid excessive medical treatment, and strengthening the training of medical staff, do a good job in postoperative care.

Recent Advances in Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging provides accurate anatomic information and advanced soft contrast, making it the reference standard for assessing cardiac volumes and systolic function. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in CMR sequences. New technical development has widened the use of CMR imaging beyond the simple characterization of myocardial scars and assessment of contractility. These novel CMR sequences offer comprehensive assessments of coronary plaque characterization, myocardial fiber orientation, and even metabolic activity, and they can be readily applied in clinical settings. CMR imaging is able to provide new insights into understanding the pathophysiologic process of underlying cardiac disease, and it can help physicians choose the best treatment strategies. Although several limitations, including the high cost and time-consuming process, have limited the widespread clinical use of CMR imaging so far, recent advances in software and hardware technologies have made the future more promising.
