ABSTRACT
The rapid spread of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) presents China with a critical challenge. As normal capacity of the Chinese hospitals is exceeded, healthcare professionals struggling to manage this unprecedented crisis face the difficult question of how best to coordinate the medical resources used in highly separated locations. Responding rapidly to this crisis, the National Telemedicine Center of China (NTCC), located in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, has established the Emergency Telemedicine Consultation System (ETCS), a telemedicine-enabled outbreak alert and response network. ETCS is built upon a doctor-to-doctor (D2D) approach, in which health services can be accessed remotely through terminals across hospitals. The system architecture of ETCS comprises three major architectural layers: (1) telemedicine service platform layer, (2) telemedicine cloud layer, and (3) telemedicine service application layer. Our ETCS has demonstrated substantial benefits in terms of the effectiveness of consultations and remote patient monitoring, multidisciplinary care, and prevention education and training.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the risk factors of respiratory depression occurring during recovery period in patients after having undergone general anesthesia and laparoscopic operation.Methods A total of 374 patients after general anesthesia and laparoscopic surgery admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from June 2015 to June 2016 were enrolled, they were divided into with or without the incidence of respiratory depression two groups by whether or not respiratorydepression, with the incidence of respiratory depression group 52 cases, without the incidence of respiratory depression group 322 cases. The patients' gender, age, body mass index (BMI), operation time, anesthesia maintenance mode, artificial airway mode, operative type and medication used in operation, intra-operative hypotension presence or absence, and type of operation were recorded. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the risk factors of respiratory depression occurring in the recovery period after general anesthesia; receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of age, intraoperative medication, and age combine with intraoperative medication respectively in the occurrence of respiratory depression during recovery period after general anesthesia and lapatoscopic operation.Results Univariate analyses showed that there were no statistical significant differences in gender, BMI, operation time, anesthesia maintenance mode, artificial airway mode, intra-operative hypotension presence or absence, type of operation, etc. compared between patients with and without the incidence of respiratory depression groups (allP > 0.05); while the differences were statistically significant in age and drug used in the operation (dezocine, flurbiprofen, dexmedetomidine or dezocine combined with dexmedetomidine, allP < 0.05). Multivariate analyses showed that age and medication used in operation were the independent risk factors for the occurrence of respiratory depression during the anesthesia recovery stage (P values being 0.000, 0.002 respectively). ROC curve showed that age, intra-operative medication and age combine with intraoperative medication respectively had certain predictive value for the occurrence of respiratory depression during the recovery period after general anesthesia and laparoscopic surgery, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of age combine with intraoperative medicationfor prediction of occurrence of respiratory depression during recovery period after anesthesia and laparoscopic surgery was significantly larger than that of single age or single intraoperative medication (0.826 vs. 0.668, 0.750,P < 0.01), 95% confidence interval (95%CI) of age, intraoperative medication and age combined with intraoperative medication were 0.598-0.738, 0.670-0.830, 0.764-0.888, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy rate of age combine with intraoperative medication were 53.8%, 94.4% and 88.8%, respectively.Conclusion Elderly patients undergoing general anesthesia and laparoscopic operation and dezocine, dexmedetomidine or dezocine combined with dexmedetomidine being applied in the laparoscopic operation are more easily associated with incidence of respiratory depression during recovery period of anesthesia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of human amniotic membrane on the survival of the crossboundary perforator flap in rats through distal subcutaneous implantation.Methods From February,2016 to December,2016,38 SD rats weighing 270-300 g were randomly divided into experimental group and control group (n=19).A three-territory perforator flap (3 cm× 10 cm) with the iliac artery as the pedicel elevated on the right dorsum of the rats.Experiment group,a section of amnion was sutured to the distal subcutaneous of the flap and then the flap was sutured back to its donor site.Control group,after the flap elevated,directly sutured back to its donor site.The blood flow of the pedicel were detected by laser Doppler flowmetry at the day before surgery,1 day after surgery,3 and 7 days after surgery,with 3 rats in every group.When the rats were anesthetized,biopsies were taken from the choke area Ⅱ at the day before surgery,3 and 7 days after surgery,with 9 rats in every group.When the rats were anesthetized,HE was used to compare the diameter size of the artery and vein at the same site.At day 7,measure the survival area of the flap,and 3 of them observe the vessel of the flap by lead oxide-gelatine technique.Results The survival rate of the experimental group and the control group after 7 days were (89.09±4.23)% and (74.56-±5.59)% respectively,the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (t=5.48,P=0.00).X-ray showed that 7 days after operation,the pedicel of iliac artery in the experimental group was bigger than that in the control group.The blood flow detection showed that the blood flow of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group (t=2.39,3.06;P=0.03,0.00,respectively) at day 1 and day 3 after surgery.Hematoxylin eosin staining showed that arteriovenous tube diameter at the Choke Ⅱ were gradually increased on the day3 and day7 after surgery in both group,but the experimental group diameter expanded multiple was higher than that of control group (t=3.52,3.50;P=0.02,0.02,respectively).Conclusion Human Amnion subcutaneous embedding may improve the blood flow of the vascular pedicle,expand the microvascular at Choke area Ⅱ,improve microcirculation,as a result to promote the survival of cross perforator flap,while the mechanism is needed to understanding.
