Objective To explore the effects of mechanical ventilation on the treatment of acute severe left heart failure.Methods While the routine drug therapy was used,25 patients with severe acute left heart failure received mechanical ventilation treatment.The changes of their artery blood gas,vital signs and clinical symptom were observed before and after mechanical ventilation.Results The parameters of their blood gas and clinical symptom were dramatically improved after the mechanical ventilation therapy in 21 patients(P＜0.01).19 patients were saved successfully and 6 patients died.Conclusion The mechanical ventilation could effectively improve the clinical symptoms and respiratory function of patients with acute severe left heart failure,which is an effective method in the adjuvant treatment of patients with acute severe left heart failure.

OBJECTIVES: To establish a rapid method for the analysis of bucinnazine in blood by UPLC-MS/MS and to apply the method to the practical case. METHODS: After the internal standard was added to blood, the protein was precipitated with 900 μL mixed solution (V_acetonitrile∶V_water=8∶2). After vortex and centrifugation, the protein was measured through 0.22 μm filter membrane. The separation was performed on C₁₈ chromatography column, with acetonitrile and 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate containing 0.1% formic acid aqueous as mobile phase gradient elution at the flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Multiple reaction monitoring scan was performed in electrospray positive ion mode, quantitative measurement was performed by internal standard method, and methodological verification was carried out. RESULTS: The linear relationship of bucinnazine in blood was good in the range of 0.5-200 μg/L, the correlation coefficient (r) was 0.999 7, the limit of detection was 0.1 μg/L, the limit of quantitation was 0.5 μg/L, and the recovery was 78.3%-83.8% at 1, 10 and 100 μg/L mass concentration levels. The matrix effect was 69.4%-73.8%, the intra-day precision was 1.9%-2.8%, and the inter-day precision was 2.8%-3.2%, the accuracy was 3.1%-3.5%. The stability test results of 1 and 100 μg/L mass concentrations at -25 ℃ showed that the accuracy (bias) of 10 d was less than 4.5%. CONCLUSIONS This method has the advantages of simple pre-treatment process, fast sample processing speed, high sensitivity of instrument analysis, good stability of content determination and reliable identification results, and can meet the needs of case identification.
