ABSTRACT

Objective:To accurately and effectively identify the most critical needs of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) treatment for patients with severe cardiopulmonary diseases, and to better carry out continuous improvement of medical service quality an patients' satisfaction.Methods:Patients who underwent ECMO and transferred from 56 medical institutions in the Henan Provincial People's Hospital Critical Care Medicine Specialist Alliance [the patients who were transported before applying quality function deployment (QFD) from June 2017 to May 2018 were enrolled as the control group, and patients who were transported after applying QFD from June 2018 to May 2019 were the observation group], medical staff in the alliance hospitals, ECMO transfer teams and transfer driver teams were enrolled as the subjects of the survey. QFD was applied to convert the collected requirements into quality improvement elements for targeted improvement measures.Results:A total of 125 questionnaires were distributed in this survey, and 116 valid questionnaires were collected, including 91 from patients (including 27 from the control group and 64 from the observation group), 10 from the medical staff of the alliance hospitals, 10 from the ECMO transport teams and 5 from the transport driver teams. The questionnaire recovery rate was 92.8%. The improvement elements of ECMO treatment for patients with critical cardiopulmonary diseases were ranked according to the importance, and the top five were as follows: the accuracy of the first diagnosis, the specialization of ECMO team, the guarantee of vehicle safety, the seamless responses, and the smooth coordinated rescue protocol.Conclusion:The top five improvement elements should be prioritized in ECMO treatment of patients with critical cardiopulmonary disease in all hospitals of the Alliance to ensure more accurate and timely treatment.

ABSTRACT

H9N2 is the most prevalent low pathogenic avian influenza virus (LPAIV) in domestic poultry in the world. Two distinct H9N2 poultry lineages, G1-like (A/quail/Hong Kong/G1/97) and Y280-like (A/Duck/Hong Kong/Y280/1997) viruses, are usually associated with binding affinity for both α 2,3 and α 2,6 sialic acid receptors (avian and human receptors), raising concern whether these viruses possess pandemic potential. To explore the impact of mouse adaptation on the transmissibility of a Y280-like virus A/Chicken/Hubei/214/2017(H9N2) (abbreviated as WT), we performed serial lung-to-lung passages of the WT virus in mice. The mouse-adapted variant (MA) exhibited enhanced pathogenicity and advantaged transmissibility after passaging in mice. Sequence analysis of the complete genomes of the MA virus revealed a total of 16 amino acid substitutions. These mutations distributed across 7 segments including PB2, PB1, PA, NP, HA, NA and NS1 genes. Furthermore, we generated a panel of recombinant or mutant H9N2 viruses using reverse genetics technology and confirmed that the PB2 gene governing the increased pathogenicity and transmissibility. The combinations of 340 K and 588 V in PB2 were important in determining the altered features. Our findings elucidate the specific mutations in PB2 contribute to the phenotype differences and emphasize the importance of monitoring the identified amino acid substitutions due to their potential threat to human health.
