Clinical application of WeChat MDT in the perioperative period of secondary hyperparathyroidism / 中华内分泌外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the application effect of the multi-disciplinary team (MDT) process and program supported by WeChat group in the perioperative period of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) .Methods:A total of 80 SHPT patients who were hospitalized in Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital and Qidong County People’s Hospital from Jul. 2017 to Oct. 2019 were selected and divided into MDT group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases) according to the principle of complete randomization. In MDT group, there were 21 females and 19 males, aged (48.80±9.08) years old, ranging from 26 to 74 years; in the control group, there were 23 females and 17 males, aged (47.90±8.89) years old, ranging from 24 to 74 years. The control group were given a conventional treatment plan, and the MDT group were implemented with the WeChat MDT process on this basis. The perioperative preparation time, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative extubation time, and continuous full parathyroid were compared between the two groups. The levels of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and blood calcium and phosphorus were compared with the postoperative complications and patient satisfaction in the two groups. The data in this study were analyzed using SPSS 23.0 statistical software.Results:The preoperative preparation time (4.35±1.12) d, operation time (130.00±32.58) min, intraoperative blood loss (15.75±7.89) ml, and postoperative extubation time (3.80±0.82) d in the MDT group were significantly lower than the preoperative preparation time of the control group (6.86±1.85) d, operation time (162.57±41.65) min, intraoperative blood loss (60.75±11.5) ml, postoperative extubation time (5.97±1.25) d ( P<0.05) 1 week after operation, the iPTH (20.86±1.52) pg/ml and blood calcium level (2.23±0.24) mmol/L of the MDT group were significantly lower than those of the control group (103.47±8.27) pg/ml and blood calcium level (2.87±0.21) mmol/L ( P<0.05) , meanwhile the blood phosphorus level of the MDT group (1.52±0.56) mmol/L was significantly higher than the blood phosphorus level of the control group (1.18±0.25) mmol/L ( P<0.05) . The number of complications in the MDT group (20 cases) was significantly lower than the number of complications in the control group (48 cases) ( P<0.05) ; and the satisfaction of treatment in the MDT group (100.00%) was significantly better than that of the control group (80.00%) ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The WeChat MDT diagnosis and treatment process and treatment plan are safe and effective, which can effectively shorten the operation time, reduce the operation risk, reduce postoperative complications, and increase patient satisfaction. It can be further promoted in the clinic.
