Effect of facemask ventilation with different ventilating volumes on gastric insufflation during anesthesia induction in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

OBJECTIVES: To compare the occurrence of gastric insufflation during anesthesia induction in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, using facemask ventilation with different ventilation volumes. METHODS: This is a prospective study of 54 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia between January 2018 and June 2018. Facemask ventilation with volume mode controlled at 6 ml/kg (group V6), 8 ml/kg (group V8) or 10 ml/kg (group V10) was applied for 120 seconds (sec) during anesthesia induction. Before facemask ventilation and at 120 sec of facemask ventilation, gastric insufflation was determined by ultrasonography. Gastric insufflation was also evaluated using direct vision of laparoscopy. Respiratory parameters were monitored. RESULTS: The incidence of gastric insufflation in group V10 (55.6%) was significantly higher than that in groups V6 (11.1%) and V8 (16.7%). However, it showed no significant difference between groups V6 and V8. During facemask ventilation for 120 sec, carbon dioxide accumulation trend occurred in group V6, and group V10 exhibited evidence of hyper-ventilation. Group V8 might be considered the best balance between low gastric insufflation and effective lung ventilation. CONCLUSION: Facemask ventilation with a ventilation volume of 8 ml/kg seems to have adequate preoxygenation and avoid excessive gastric insufflation during anesthesia induction in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Clinical effect of total hip replacement in 104 patients suffered from different diseases / 中国综合临床

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect and complications of total hip replacement (THR) in novel femoral neck fracture,old femoral neck fracture, aseptic necrosis of femoral head and coxa degenerative osteoarthropathy. To provide instructions to surgical indications and treatment effects analysis.Methods One hundrde and four patients were divided into 4 groups by disease type: novel femoral neck fracture group (n = 32 ), old femoral neck fracture group (n = 22) ,aseptic necrosis of femoral head group (n =34) and coxa degenerative osteoarthropathy group (n = 16). These patients were followed-up for 12 - 144 months after THR, their Harris standard score and complications data, before and after operation, were analyzed retrospectively. Results After operation, the Harris standard scores were 92. 6 ± 5.8,90. 1 ± 5. 2,86. 3 ± 4. 6,81.9 ±4. 1 in novel femoral neck fracture,old femoral neck fracture,aseptic necrosis of femoral head and coxa degenerative osteoarthropathy groups respectively, which were significantly higher than the scores before operation (25.6±1.8,36.7±2.6,52.9±4.3,42. 1 ±3.8,Ps ＜0.05). Conclusion THR has good effects in the four types of diseases. Short length of stay and high healing rate are marked characteristics of THR. More attention shoud be paid to the complications of THR.
