ObjectiveTo investigate the preoperative cognition of the patients undergoing daytime ophthalmic fundus surgery and understand their needs of health education, so as to provide an evidence for efficient and accurate preoperative health education services within the limited time of the ophthalmic day fundus surgery.MethodsThe convenient sampling method was used to select the patients who met the inclusion criteria in the ambulatory operating room of Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from December 2017 to May 2018. The study included three parts: the general information of the patients, the preoperative cognition of the patients, and the needs for health education service of the patients. Questionnaires were designed according to the research purpose and method, which were distributed and recovered by professionals.ResultsA total of 112 patients were included. Among them, the cognitive scores of operation process (2.57±0.56), preoperative diet (2.58±0.59), preoperative medication (2.60±0.64), and psychological status (2.58±0.65) were relatively low. More health education services were needed in three aspects: the cognition of operation details [operation duration (85.71%), surgeons (79.46%), operation start time (76.79%)], intraoperative cooperation (90.18%), and intervention for preoperative anxiety (78.57%).ConclusionNurses should formulate the contents of preoperative health education according to the preoperative cognition and nursing needs of patients, so as to provide efficient and accurate health education services for patients.
Objective To determine the relationship between preoperative prognostic inflammatory and nutritional index (PINI) value and short-term prognosis in colorectal cancer. Methods Patients with colorectal cancer verified by pathologically examine were prospectively enrolled from April 2009 to June 2009. Serum alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, C-reactive protein, albumin and prealbumin were examined on day 3 before operation, and the value of preoperative PINI was calculated. The relationships between preoperative PINI and patho-TNM stage, complications, quality of life, and recurrence and metastasis after operation were analyzed. Results Total 38 patients with colorectal cancer underwent radical surgery were enrolled. Preoperative PINI value was 2.17±1.27. Preoperative PINI value was correlated with TMN stage and M stage: PINI value in patients of Ⅳ stage or M1 stage, were significantly higher than those in ones of Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ stage (P<0.001) or M0 stage (P<0.001). There was no significant correlation between preoperative PINI value and preoperative complications (Pgt;0.05). Preoperative PINI value was correlated with postoperative diet, anorexia and overall quality of life: preoperative PINI value in patients with abnormal diet, anorexia or poor quality of life, were significantly higher than those in ones with normal diet (P=0.020), no-anorexia (P=0.020) or moderate (P=0.025) and well (P=0.020) quality of life. Conclusion Preoperative PINI value is an effective index to assess the short-term prognosis of colorectal cancer.
Objective To determine the influence and significance of combinative assessment of 64 multi-slice spiral computer tomography (MSCT) with serum amyloid A protein (SAA) or fibrinogen (FIB) on the selection of operative procedures of rectal cancer under the multidisciplinary team. Methods Prospectively enrolled 240 patients diagnosed definitely as rectal cancer at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from February to June 2009 were randomly assigned into two groups. In one group named MSCT+SAA group, both MSCT and SAA combinative assessment were made for the preoperative evaluation. In another group named MSCT+FIB group, both MSCT and FIB combinative assessment were made for preoperative evaluation. Furthermore, the preoperative staging and predicted operation procedures were compared with postoperative pathologic staging and practical operation procedures, respectively, and the relationship between the choice of operation procedures and clinicopathologic factors was analyzed. Results According to the criteria, 234 patients were actually included into MSCT+SAA group (n=118) and MSCT+FIB group (n=116). The baseline characteristics of two groups were statistically similar (Pgt;0.05). For MSCT+SAA group, the accuracies of preoperative staging T, N, M and TNM were 72.9%, 83.1%, 100% and 80.1%, respectively. For MSCT+FIB group, the accuracies of preoperative staging T, N, M and TNM were 68.1%, 75.0%, 100% and 74.1%, respectively, and there was not a statistically significant difference (Pgt;0.05). There was also not a statistically significant difference of the accuracy of prediction to operative procedures in two groups (99.6% vs. 96.6%, Pgt;0.05). The preoperative T staging (P<0.001), N staging (P<0.001), TNM staging (P<0.001), serum level of SAA (P<0.001), serum level of FIB (Plt;0.001) and distance of tumor to the dentate line (P<0.05) were associated to the operative procedures. Conclusions Combinative assessment of MSCT and FIB could improve the accuracy of preoperative staging and operative procedures prediction, however, it may be not superior to MSCT plus SAA.
ObjectiveTo explore potential value of three-dimensional reconstruction technique for preoperative evaluation of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis. MethodsTwenty-one cases of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis proved by postoperative pathological examination in Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai University from October 2013 to March 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The three periods of patients’ liver dynamic thin layerCTscan images were collected and imported in three-dimensional reconstruction software by DICOM format. The volume of the virtual resected liver tissue was calculated by software, and then was compared with the actual resected liver tissue volume. ResultsThe resected liver volume was (761.94±505.77) mL and (756.19±501.78) mL in the virtual surgery and in the veritable surgery, respectively. The proportion of resected liver in the total liver was (39.27±18.75)% and (38.95±16.99)% in the virtual surgery and in the veritable surgery, respectively. The resected liver volume had no significant difference between the virtual surgery and veritable surgery (P>0.05), which a positive relation (r=0.989, P<0.001). ConclusionThe limited preliminary data in this study show that three-dimensional reconstruction technique and virtual planning system for surgery could accurately guide resection of lesion and provide preoperative guidance of accurate liver resection for hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.
Objective To summarize the current advancement of preoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer. Methods Relevant literatures about current advancement of preoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer published domesticly and abroad recently were collected and reviewed. Results The lower local recurrence rate and longer disease-free survival time were observed in preoperative radiotherapy, compared with postoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer. The recurrence rate was higher in short-course radiotherapy, compared with conventionally radiotherapy for stageⅢrectal cancer, but there was no significant difference for stageⅡrectal cancer. The biology molecular such as p53, CEA, Cox-2, EGFR, and VEGF had shown to be radiosensitive. Conclusions The proposal of preoperative radiotherapy for rectal cancer, could be prone to conventionally radiotherapy. There are more screening targets for preoperative radiotherapy in extensive exploration of diverse radiosensitivity. Biology molecular, developed gene expression profiling, and gene chips for rectal cancer may contribute to the individualization treatment.
ObjectiveTo study the preoperative evaluation value of serum tumor markers (CA72-4, CEA, CA199 and CA125) in patients with gastric cancer. MethodsSerum levels of tumor markers (CA72-4, CEA, CA199 and CA125) and clinical pathological data of 70 patients with gastric cancer before operation who underwent surgical treatment in the Gastrointestinal Surgery Department of Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University in June 2013 to 2014 June were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsThere were some connection between the concentration of the serum CA72-4 and the tumor diameter, TNM staging, invasion depth, and the number of lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05), between CA199 and tumor size, TNM staging, and invasion depth (P < 0.05), between CEA, CA125 and tumor diameter, TNM staging and distant metastasis (P < 0.05), but the CA72-4, CA72-4, CEA and CA125 had nothing to do with patient' age and gender. ConclusionThe serum tumor markers of CA724, CEA, CA199, and CA125 have clinical application value in preoperative evaluation of gastric cancer.
ObjectiveTo summarize the prevention method for pancreatic fistula following pancreaticoduodenec-tomy. MethodLiteratures related to the prevention methods for postoperative pancreatic fistula at home and abroad in recent years were retrieved and summarized. ResultsThe pancreatic fistula was a common complication following pancreaticoduodenectomy. It was mainly caused by preoperative continuous high jaundice, selection of intraoperative anastomosis, and early postoperative pancreatic juice secretion. Trypsinogen was activated by alkaline intestinal juice and then the nearby tissue was digested. Pancreatic juice flowed into abdominal cavity to digest the tissue, then caused serious complications or even death. Through the prevention of drugs, preoperative biliary drainage and intraoperative anastomosis, etc., the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula was slightly decreased. ConclusionThe prevention for postoperative pancreatic fistula is an integrated process, and it needs to be ran through the whole perioperative period.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of prophylactic use of intra-aortic balloon pump counterpulsation (IABP) before coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in high risk patients. MethodsDatabases including The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2014), PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP were electronically searched from inception to July 2014, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies about prophylactic use of IABP before CABG in high risk patients. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 6 RCTs and 6 cohort studies involving 1 359 patients were included, of which 633 prophylactically used IABP before CABG (the IABP group) and 736 didn't prophylactically use IABP before CABG (the control group). The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared with the control group, prophylactic use of IABP could significantly reduce perioperative mortality (RCT: OR=0.15, 95%CI 0.06 to 0.38, P<0.000 1; cohort study: OR=0.36, 95%CI 0.19 to 0.67, P=0.001) and postoperative LCOS (RCT: OR=0.23, 95%CI 0.12 to 0.43, P<0.000 01; cohort study: OR=0.21, 95%CI 0.10 to 0.43, P<0.000 1); there was no significant difference between two groups in incidence rate of postoperative myocardial infarction (MI) (RCT: OR=0.34, 95%CI 0.10 to 1.11, P=0.07; cohort study: OR=0.56, 95%CI 0.26 to 1.24, P=0.15); the results of combined analyses of RCTs showed that, prophylactic use of IABP could significantly reduce postoperative ICU stay (MD=-42.94, 95%CI -56.11 to -29.76, P<0.000 01) and postoperative hospital stay (MD=-3.83, 95%CI-5.82 to -1.85, P=0.0002), but these differences were not found in the results of combined analyses of cohort studies (MD=-4.68, 95%CI 20.69 to 11.33, P=0.57; MD=-0.77, 95%CI -1.80 to 0.26, P=0.14). ConclusionProphylactic use of IABP before CABG in high risk patients can significantly reduce the perioperative mortality, postoperative LCOS and the length of ICU stay, however it cannot reduce postoperative MI. Due to the limited quantity and quality of included studies, the above conclusions still need to be verified by more high quality studies.
Objective To research the relationship between decrease of serum surfactant protein D (SP-D) level reduced by pulmonary rehabilitation training and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC). Methods From May 2015 through December 2015, 80 consecutive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with surgical treatment in West China Hospital, who were at least with a high risk factor, were randomly divided into two groups including a group R and a group C. There were 36 patients with 25 males and 11 females at age of 63.98±8.32 years in the group R and 44 patients with 32 males and 12 females at age of 64.58±6.71 years in the group C.The group R underwent an intensive preoperative pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) training for one week, and then with lobectomy. The group C underwent only lobectomy with conventional perioperative managements. Postoperative pulmonary complications, average days in hospital, other clinic data and the serum SP-D level in a series of time from the date of admission to discharge (5 time points) were analyzed. Results The incidence of PPC in the group R was 5.56%(2/36),which was lower than that in the group C (P=0.032). The descender of the serum SP-D level of the patients in the group R (30.75±5.57 ng/mlvs. 24.22±3.08 ng/ml) was more obvious than that in the group C (31.16±7.81 ng/mlvs. 30.29±5.80 ng/ml,P=0.012). The descender of the serum SP-D level of the patients with PPC was more obvious than that of patients without PPC (P=0.012). Conclusion The preoperative PR training could reduce the PPC of lung cancer surgery with high risk factors. The serum SP-D level could reflect the effect of preoperative pulmonary rehabilitation training.
Objective To evaluate the safety and necessity of shortening the time of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation in lumber disc herniation patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery. Methods A total of 141 eligible patients were assigned into the control group (n=70) and the intervention group (n=71) between April and September 2015. The control group received traditional fasting method while the intervention group received new preoperative fasting method. The time of fasting food and fluid limitation, the incidences of hunger, thirsty, aspiration, postoperative nausea and vomiting, postoperative abdominal distension, and length of stay and the subjective feeling in hospital were compared between the two groups. Results The average time of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation were (13.09±2.30) and (7.84±2.10) hours in the control group and (6.88±0.96) and (4.68±1.08) hours in the intervention group. The incidence of thirsty in the intervention group was shorter than that in the control group, and the subjective feeling in hospital of the intervention group was better than that in the control group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, the incidence of postoperative abdominal distension, and length of hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Shortening the time of preoperative fasting and fluid limitation can improve the subjective feeling in hospital of lumber disc herniation patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery, not increasing the incidences of complications. It can be applied gradually.
