Objective To develop a multidisciplinary nursing program for Prader-Willi syndrome with spinal deformity and evaluate its effectiveness in clinical practice. Methods In July 2016, a multidisciplinary collaborative team was established before the treatment of children with Prader-Willi syndrome complicated with spinal deformity. For the nursing difficulties in the perioperative period, relevant literature was consulted, and a multidisciplinary collaborative nursing plan was formulated, which included nutrition management and blood glucose control, management of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome, behavioral intervention related to mental change, and early identification and management of complications. The developed multidisciplinary collaborative nursing program was applied to three children with Prader-Willi syndrome complicated with spinal deformity in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from July 2016 to October 2018, and their postoperative recovery was evaluated. Results One child had inguinal skin ulceration when admitted to hospital, which was significantly improved after active treatment. The perioperative blood glucose level control of the three children was satisfactory, and there was no postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction, deep wound infection, respiratory complications, internal fixation failure or other complications, and no asphyxia, fall, loss, or other adverse events. The follow-up compliance after discharge was 100%. Conclusions Multidisciplinary collaboration programs can escort patient’ safety and promote their recovery, improve the professional level of nursing staff, and reflect the nursing value. As a working mode, it can be further popularized and used for reference in the nursing of other difficult diseases.
Objective To investigate the osteoblasts effect, compl ications and influencing factors in the appl ication of small freeze-drying allogeneic bone plots mixed autologous bone fragments in spinal surgery, and to compare with autogenous bone graft. Methods From January 2003 to January 2007, 515 cases of spinal injuries were treated. A total of 324 cases weretreated with small freeze-drying allogeneic bone plots mixed with autologous bone grafts (group A), including 211 males and 113 females with an average age of 36 years (18-83 years). There were 182 cases of thoracolumbar vertebra fracture, 68 cases of lumbar spondylol isthesis, 47 cases of lumbar vertebral canal stenosis, 17 cases of cervical disc herniation, 5 cases of cervical spine fracture-dislocation and 5 cases of thoracolumbar vertebra tumor. The weight of bone graft was 10-60 g (mean 30 g). A total of 191 cases were treated with autogenous bone grafting (group B), including 135 males and 56 females with an average age of 32 years (23-78 years). There were 109 cases of thoracolumbar vertebra fracture, 23 cases of lumbar spondylol isthesis, 17 cases of lumbar vertebral canal stenosis, 19 cases of cervical disc herniation, and 23 cases of cervical spine fracture-dislocation. The weight of bone graft was 10-50 g (mean 25 g). Results In group A, effusion of wound increased in 4 cases and the result of bacterial culture was negative; effusion was absorbed after 2 weeks of local irrigation, drainege and cortin management. In group B, no obvious effusion was observed. The follow-up time was 10-36 months (mean 17.4 months) in group A and 8-36 months (mean 16.8 months) in group B. The bone heal ing was achieved in 308 cases within 4-10 months (mean 8.1 months) and in 184 cases within 4-10 months (mean 5.8 months), and the bone fusion rates were 95.06% and 96.34% in groups Aand B, respectively. There was no significant difference in bone fusion rate between groups (P gt; 0.05). According to Mankin and Komender evaluation standard, the response rates were 95.06% and 96.34% in groups A and B, respectively, showing no significant difference (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Mix-bone grafting has the same effective to autologous bone grafting in bone fusion rate. It could be used as the supplement of the autologous bone inadequacy.
Objective To investigate the stability and the stress distributions of L3-5 fused with three different approaches (interbody, posterolateral and circumferential fusions) and to investigate degeneration of thesegment adjacent to the fused functional spinal unit. Methods A detailed L3-5 three-dimensional nonlinear finite element model of a normal man aged 32 was established and validated. Based on the model, the destabilized model, the interbody, posterolateral and circumferential fusions models of L4-5 were established. After the loadings were placed on all the models, we recorded the angular motions of the fused segment and the Von Mises stress of the adjacent intervertebral disc. Results The circumferential fusion was most stable than the others, and the interbody fusion was more stable than the posterolateral fusion. The maximal Von Mises stress of the adjacent L3,4 intervertebral disc in all the models was ranked descendingly as flexion,lateral bending,torsion and extension. For the three kinds of fusions, the stress increment of the L3,4 intervertebral disc was ranked ascendingly as interbody fusion,posterolateral fusion and circumferential fusion. Conclusion After destabilization of the L4,5 segment, the stability of the circumferential fusionis better than that of the others, particularly under the flexional or extensional loading. The stability of the interbody fusion is better than that of the posterolateral fusion, except for under the flexional loading. The feasibility of adjacent segment degeneration can be ranked descendingly as: circumferential fusion,posterolateral fusion and interbody fusion.
Objective To study the development, investigation, and application of the artificial vertebral body so as to provide an essential reference for the future research and clinical application. Methods The recent articles on materials, types, and clinical applications of the artificial vertebral body were reviewed.Results The materials used for the artificial vertebral body were porcelain, alloy, variant bone, and composite. But each of them had its own advantages and disadvantages. The types of the artificial vertebral body were grouped as expandable and non-expandable ones; however, the expandable type was much better. The artificial vertebral body had been applied to the treatments of spinal tumor, tuberculosis, fracture, and infection, with better effects. Conclusion The artificial vertebral body can beextensively applied. However, the materials and types need to be improved.
Objective To evaluate the security and validity of the acute extreme hypervolemic hemodilution (AEHH) in spine surgery. Methods Thirteen patients(8 males, 5 females; age, 16-65 years; weight, 50-75 kg) who had undergone major spine operations were enrolled in this study. Eleven of them had undergone anterior decompression, who were given the grafting and the internal fixation for their thoracolumber spinal burst fractures; the other 2 patients were given the correction operation for their scoliosis. The baselines of the haematocrit (Hct）were 0.363-0.481 before operation. The patients had no cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic or renal dysfunction or coagulation abnormality. The hemodynamic status and the haematocrit were observed during operation. The parameters of thromboelastography (TEG)，arterial blood gas, and electrolytes were measured and observed at the following time points: before AEHH, after AEHH, 60 minutes after AEHH, 120 minutes after AEHH, and the end of the operation. The total fluid volume was recorded. Results The autologous blood volume was1 050-1 575 ml (average,1 419±198 ml), plasma substitute 2 100-3 150 ml (average,2 838±397 ml), blood loss1 000-3 130 ml (average, 1 747±743 ml), urine 450-1 270 ml (average, 871±374 ml), and the net blood transfusion 1 206-2 661 ml(1 863±598 ml). The homogenous blood of 400 ml was transfused in 1 patient for making upthe blood loss of 3 130 ml. There were no statistically significant differencesin the hemodynamic measurements, arterial blood gas, and electrolyte variables when compared with the baseline values before the hemodilution (Pgt;0.05). The reaction time of TEG was longer 60 minutes after AEHH than before AEHH (Plt;0.05); the other parameters of TEG had no differences when compared with the baseline values (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion The AEHH is safe and efficient in reduction of the perioperative homogenous blood transfusion in spine surgery.
Objective To investigate the status of nutrition, nutritional support, and postoperative nutrition-related complications in patients with spinal deformity during orthopedic perioperative period. Methods From February to August 2021, patients who underwent spinal orthopedic surgery for spinal deformity in Peking University Third Hospital were collected. A survey was conducted using self-designed questionnaire, including patient’s general information (gender, age, and type of spinal deformity), nutrition-related information (risks of malnutrition, forms of nutritional support), and postoperative nutrition-related complications. Results A total of 39 patients with spinal deformity were enrolled, and 46.2% (18 cases) were at risk of malnutrition. There were a total of 174 times of nutritional support, and 96.0% (167 times) were parenteral nutrition. The patients’ energy intake from nutritional support accounted for 34.41% of the daily goal energy intake averagely. At admission, one day after operation, and at discharge, the prealbumin was (215.51±34.69), (172.85±31.85), and (163.67±29.15) mg/L, respectively, and the hemoglobin was (138.08±15.67), (119.92±18.01), and (117.69±14.76) g/L, respectively, which were significantly lower one day after operation and at discharge than those at admission (P<0.01). The incidence of postoperative nutrition-related complications during hospitalization was 5.1% (2/39). Conclusions Patients undergoing spinal deformity orthopedics are at high risk of overall malnutrition during the perioperative period, their clinical nutritional interventions are mostly based on parenteral nutrition with a single infusion of nutritional preparations, and the nutritional status is not significantly improved. However, the incidence of postoperative nutrition-related complications is low. Standardized nutrition interventions should be strengthened in the future.
Objective To investigate the diagnosis and effectiveness of surgical treatment for lumbar pyogenic spondyl itis. Methods Between February 2005 and June 2010, 15 cases of lumbar pyogenic spondyl itis were treated. There were 10 males and 5 females with an average age of 48.6 years (range, 26-72 years). Affected segments included L2, 3 in 3 cases,L3, 4 in 3 cases, L4, 5 in 8 cases, and L5, S1 in 1 case. All cases had cl inical manifestations of moderate or severe fever, local pain of lesion, and l imitation of the spinal movement; 10 patients had nerve root symptoms, and 8 patients had symptoms of lower limb paraplegia. Leukocyte, C-reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) significantly increased in all cases. The preoperative X-ray and CT examinations showed no clear bone destruction; MRI showed decreased signal intensity on T1WI and increased signal intensity on T2WI, 7 cases had local ized abscess formation. The patients underwent focal cleaning and bone grafting and fusion combined with internal fixation, including anterior operation in 13 cases, posterior operation in 1 case, and combined anterior and posterior operation in 1 case. The results of bacterial culture were positive in 10 cases. According to the results of intraoperative bacterial cultures, sensitive antibiotics were selected. Results Healing of incision by first intention was achieved in 14 cases, healing by second intention in 1 case. After 2 weeks, 1 case recurred and symptoms was rel iefed after symptomatic treatment. Back pain and (or) lower limb pain were obviously improved in the other patients; body temperature recovered to normal after 3-4 days; leukocyte, ESR, and CRP significantly decreased. All the patients were followed up 12 to 70 months with an average of 35.4 months.The patients had no rejection, no fistula formation, no lumbar kyphosis, and no fixator loosening or breakage. The bony fusion time was 4-8 months. Conclusion Combination of cl inical manifestations, laboratory tests, and MRI can diagnose lumbar pyogenic spondyl itis, of which CRP is an important indicator to determine progression of the disease, and MRI is important for diagnosis. Debridement combined with interbody fusion and internal fixation is a safe and effective treatment method.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the effectiveness and safety of thalidomide for ankylosing spondylitis (AS). MethodsDatabases including Ovid MEDLINE (1946 to 2014.2.1), EMbase (1947 to 2014.2.1), CENTRAL (Issue 1, 2014), CBM (1978 to 2014.2.1), CNKI (1994 to 2014.2.1), WanFang Data (1980 to 2014.2.1) and VIP (1989 to 2014.2.1) were searched for randomized controlled trials about the effectiveness and safety of thalidomide for AS. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed methodological quality of included studies. Meta-analysis was then conducted using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsSeven RCTs were included involving 544 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with the blank group, thalidomide increased clinical remission, but it showed no obvious advantage in Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), and secondary outcome index, with an increased total rate of withdrawal/drop-out. Compared with SSZ, thalidomide increased the rate of maintaining remission when it was used in the maintenance treatment after the patients attained ASAS20; and for other outcomes it was similar to SSZ. Compared with NSAIDs, thalidomide increased the rate of maintaining remission when it was used in the maintenance treatment after the patients attained ASAS20; it increased clinical remission; for secondary outcomes it was similar to NSAIDs; and it had a higher incidence of adverse reaction as well as an increased total rate of withdrawal/drop-out. ConclusionCompared with the blank group, thalidomide increases clinical remission, with an obviously-increased total rate of withdrawal/drop-out. Compared with SSZ, thalidomide increases the rate of maintaining remission when it is used in the maintenance treatment after patients attain ASAS20. Compared with NSAIDs, thalidomide increases the rate of maintaining remission when it is used in the maintenance treatment after patients attain ASAS20; it also increases clinical remission; but it has a higher incidence of adverse reaction as well as an increased total rate of withdrawal/drop-out. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the above conclusion needs to be verified by conducting more high quality studies.
【Abstract】 Objective To explore the effectiveness of multiple joint arthroplasty in treating lower limb joint disease. Methods Between January 2000 and December 2007, 5 patients with lower limb joint disease (three or more joints were involved) were treated with total hip and knee arthroplasty. There were 3 males and 2 females, aged from 27 to 59 years (mean, 41.8 years). Two patients had ankylosing spondylitis and 3 had rheumatoid arthritis, whose hip and knee joints were involved. Four patients lost the ability of walking preoperatively, 1 patient could only walk with crutch. The Harris score was 24 ± 24 and the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score was 28 ± 15. All patients underwent multiple joint arthroplasty simultaneously (2 cases) or multiple-stage (3 cases). Results Wounds healed by first intention in all patients. In 1 patient who had dislocation of the hip after operation, manipulative reduction and immobilization with skin traction were given for 3 weeks, and no dislocation occurred; in 2 patients who had early sign of anemia, blood transfusion was given. All patients were followed up 46-140 months with an average of 75 months. The patients could walk normally, and had no difficulty in upstairs and downstairs. The stability of the hip and knee was good, and no joint infection or loosening occurred. The Harris score was 88 ± 6 at last follow-up, showing significant difference when compared with the preoperative score (t=8.16, P=0.00); the HSS score was 86 ± 6, showing significant difference when compared with the preoperative score (t=13.96, P=0.00). Conclusion Multiple joint arthroplasty is an effective treatment method in patients with lower limb joint disease, which can significantly improve life quality of patients.
