ObjectiveTo investigate the complications after intracranial neurosurgery in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU). Methods2166 patients enrolled into PACU after intracranial neurosurgery were reviewed. ResultsAmong the complications, the most frequent ones were hypertension (14.0%), arrhythmia (13.9%), pain (13.7%), shivering (10.5%), nausea and vomiting (9.3%), and delirium (8.6%). The least ones were hypoxemia (3.4%), respiratory obstruction (1.9%), delayed recovery (1.5%), and hypotention (0.5%). Abnormal temperature and residual block occurred at 7.2% and 22.8% in the patients who were monitored. All complications were treated immediately, and all the patients transferred to neurosurgical ward with modified Aldrete score over 9~10. ConclusionThe patient in PACU need well management to insure safe and smooth recovery from anesthesia after intracranial surgery.

Objective To investigate the acid α glucosidase(GAA)gene mutations and clinical features of a Chinese patient exhibiting signs and symptoms of infantile glycogen storage disease type Ⅱ(GSD Ⅱ). Methods Clinical features of the patient were reviewed,and GAA activity in the patient's and her parents' whole leukocytes were measured. GAA coding regions were amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR),and analyzed by direct DNA sequencing. Results The patient showed feeding difficulties,generalized hypotonia and weakness starting at 2 months of age. Cardiomegaly and cardiomyopathy were found at 4 months. She died of cardiorespiratory failure at the age of 6 months. GAA activity in leukocytes was low in the patient(17.3% of the median normal range). Genotyping revealed the patient was a heterozygote for a novel nonsense mutation p.W738X and a previously reported nonsense mutation p.E888X. The reported pseudodeficiency allele c.1726G > A;2065G > Awas found in the patient and her mother. Conclusions Correct diagnosis was made for this patient by combination of GAA activity assay and genetic analysis. From the clinical course,this patient should be classified as infantile type of GSD Ⅱ,suggesting that the novel mutation p.W738X may have a damaging effect on the function of GAA. Pseudodeficiency allele found in this family highlights the importance of genetic analysis of GAA when performing diagnosis and prenatal diagnosis for the affected families,as this allele causes low GAA activity in normal individuals.

Patient satisfaction is an important index of hospital quality evaluation and performance evaluation.This study established multi-attribute patient satisfaction index system based on the theory of customer satisfaction index,determined the index weight by combination weighting approach,and graded the hospitals and adjusted the weights by the RSR method.A set of comprehensive evaluation scheme is initially formed,which is suitable for patient satisfaction evaluation and performance evaluation.

Objective To evaluate the consistence in the detection of antibodies against HIV-1 between a new rapid test using oral mucosal transudate (OMT) samples and ELISA using serum samples. Methods Two-hundred patients who were positive for anti-HIV-1 antibodies by serum ELISA and confirmed by Western blot to be infected with HIV, and 600 healthy human controls negative for anti-HIV-1 antibodies by serum ELISA, were eligible for this study. OMT samples were collected from these subjects and subjected to a rapid test for anti-HIV-1 antibodies. The factors influencing the performance of the rapid test were analyzed. Results Of the 200 OMT specimens from HIV-infected patients, 198 showed positive reaction, 2 showed negative reaction. Among the 198 positive reactions, 192 (96%) were "clear" and easy to make decisions, 4 (2%) were "faint", 2(1%) were "very faint" and required professionals to make decisions. The rapid test was negative in all the 600 OMT specimens from the control group. Conclusions The consistence in the detection of anti-HIV-1 antibodies between the OMT rapid test and serum ELISA was 99% in HIV-positive specimens, 100% in HIV-negative specimens, and 99.75% in all the specimens.

Objective Examination and evaluation of employee satisfaction index in the hospital performance evaluation.Methods Stratified sampling,field survey and telephone survey were used in customizing a questionnaire for two surveys in July and December 201 5 respectively.Results The standardized score of employee satisfaction was 86.252±1 5.1 53,and the lowest score was found in the canteen environment and food quality.Conclusion Employee satisfaction is found as good overall,and targeted measures are recommended to improve insufficiencies for better employee satisfaction.
