Objective PB840 ventilator to explore non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in the ICU of the application,efficacy and safety.Methods Application PB840 Ventilator-Non-invasive mechanical ventilation in the treatment of the seven cases of different causes of respiratory failure patients,non-invasive ventilation in the treatment of 4 h,the blood gas (PaO2,PaCO2 and pH value) analysis and analysis of clinical symptoms to improve the situation.Results Patient before and after treatment of PaO2,PaCO2 and pH compared to the value there is significant difference.Target to improve the blood after treatment significantly (P<0.05),reduce or alleviate the symptoms of sick;cyanosis improved.However,leakage is still a major disadvantage,some patients can not tolerate when there is need to immediately replace invasive mechanical ventilation.Conclusion PB840 ventilator mode non-invasive ventilation can improve the patient′s respiratory failure and clinical symptoms of blood-gas target,but most critically ill patients should be carefully applied.

Three cases of swimming pool granuloma are reported.Case 1:a 40-year-old female presented with a 2-month history of nodules and plaques on the right hand and forearm.She was a tropical fish salesperson but denied trauma history.Skin examination revealed multiple irregularly sized,dark-red nodules and plaques on the joints of right fingers,wrist,and elbow,as well as multiple subcutaneous nodules simulating strings of beads on the right upper limb.Case 2:a 48-year-old female presented with a 2-month history of nodules and plaques on the left hand and forearm.There was a history of trauma due to tropical fish tank and filter cleaning.Physical examination showed multiple deep purple plaques and painless subcutaneous nodules scattered on the left hand,wrist,and upper limb.Case 3:a 39-year-old male presented with a 3-month history of nodules on the fingers of both hands.There was no history of trauma,but he was a tropical aquarist.Skin examination revealed multiple soybean-sized dark-red nodules on the extensor aspect of interphalangeal joints of both hands.Fungal examinations yielded negative results in the 3 cases,while histopathology revealed infectious granuloma with a mixed inflammatory cell infiltrate.All of the cases showed positive results in purified protein derivative (PPD)skin test.Mycobacterium marinum was isolated from the lesional tissue of Case 1 and 2,but not from Case 3.All the patients were diagnosed with swimming pool granuloma,and given anti-atypical mycobacterial therapy including oral rifampin and clarithromycin.The lesions disappeared after 1 to 3 months of treatment,with the treatment course varying from 2 to 5 months.No recurrence was observed during a 3- to 12-month follow-up.
