As an indispensable equipment in modern hospital, medical sterilization equipment plays an important role in infection management. This paper introduces progresses and trends of several usual and novel sterilization equipments to benefit other hospitals.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the cost-effective ratio on sterilized packing material to find out best materials.METHODS The value of 4 kinds of the materials were compared.RESULTS Four kinds of packing materials all had their advantage and disadvantage,in which the value of non woven was the highest.CONCLUSIONS The combination usage of different kinds of packing materials is a better method.

Objective To design a set of supply water processing system for disinfecting surgical instruments in integrated tertiary hospi-tal,and improve the quality of supply water for the instrument disinfection and control the cost of water. Methods Since October 2012,Wa-ter Disinfection Device for instrument in tertiary hospital CSSD was studied. And a system of integrated production and supply the softened wa-ter,level-one reverse osmosis purified water,secondary reverse osmosis pure water was designed,which can realize a steady supply of disinfec-tion water all the day. The equipment cleaning and instrument sterilization equipment running used softened water,final rinse and disinfection of equipment used level-one reverse osmosis water purification,the instrument sterilization with steam pressure for production used secondary reverse osmosis water purification. Results According to the design scheme,the equipment to supply and product water for integrated surgi-cal instruments disinfection was confirmed by processing water with specification,high efficiency and low cost for nearly three years,which sig-nificantly improved the quality of disinfection supply processing of the surgical instrument. Conclusion Only Focus on supply water for sur-gical instruments disinfection in the tertiary hospital,and improve the quality of the equipment disinfection supplies, which could provide se-curity for clinical medical treatment of sterile equipment.

Objective　To explore the mechanism of enhancing killing activities of tumor cell-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) by IL-4 gene modification. Methods　IL-4 gene was introduced into human hepatocellular carcinoma cell HepG2 cells using retroviral vector pL-IL-4-SN. Wild HepG2 and IL-4 gene-modified tumor cells were used to induce CTL responses, and cellular surface molecules were evaluated using flow cytometry. Results　The killing activities of tumor cell-specific CTL in IL-4 gene-modified groups were increased from (11.2±2.7)% to (72.5±12)%, which was about seven fold higher than CTL killing activities induced by HepG2 cells (P<0.01). High levels of expression of MHC class Ⅱ antigens as well as the co-stimulatory molecules B7-1 and ICAM-1 were found in IL-4 gene-transferred tumor cells. The expression of MHC class Ⅰwas not affected by IL-4 gene modification. The expression of cell surface molecules induced by IL-4 gene-modified tumor vaccines were completely abrogated through using anti-IL-4 McAb. A significant increase of IL-2 secretions was found during the induction of CTL responses when IL-4 gene-modified tumor cells were used as stimulatory cells. IL-2 secretion and CTL responses were inhibited by anti-IL-4 or anti-surface molecule McAb. Conclusion　IL-4 gene modification enhanced tumor cell-specific CTL killing activities through induction of the expression of cellular surface molecules and facilitation of IL-2 secretion.

Objective To develop a kind of multi-functional cleaning-out device for medical apparatus.Methods Drawing on experience of traditional medical apparatus cleaning techniques by human or machine,a new cleaning-out device was designed.The prototype was made and proofed by series of tests.Results This device has outstanding advantages in producing cost,cleaning quality and cleaning cost.Conclusion This device worth popularizing for its easy-operation and low cost.

Objective To study the changes of the four active substances endothelin(ET),calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP), thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-Keto-prostaglandin F1? (6-Keto-PGF1?) in plasma when they acted on . each other in the formation and development of diabetic retinopathy. Methods Using the method of radio-immunity,the levels of ET,CGRP,TXB2, 6-Keto-PGF,. in plasma were measured in four groups of patients with type 2 diabetes (group 1: 40 cases without retinopathy; group 2: 40 cases with primary retinopathylgroup 3. 40 cases with hyperplasia type of retinopath; group 4: 40 cases normal controls). Results The results showed that ET increased progressively (P

Objective To analyze and summarize the clinical diagnosis and therapy features of chronic liver disease patients with limbs infection.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 29 chronic liver disease patients with serious limbs infection in our hospital.Results Chronic liver disease patients with limbs infection specially vibrio infection,had a high ratio of MODS,so early diagnosis,early therapy with antibiotics and early operation to expose and cut lesion has a good effect.Conclusions The chronic liver disease patients with limbs infection should early diagnosed,early treated by antibiotics,and early exposed the swelling limbs or cut lesion by surgery.

OBJECTIVE To inspect and analyze the cleaning efficacy on surgical instrument after cleaning cycle and maintenance procedures.METHODS The medical instrument was collected from each department based on the weekly usages.Focus on the timing of the cleaning after use and the efficacy of the cleaning methods.Use naked eyes to inspect the cleanness of the medical instrument after each cleaning cycle.RESULTS The combination of the machine washing and manual washing immediately after the surgical procedures provided better cleaning efficacy.It was more difficult to clean the instrument once the dried bio-burden on it or after soaking in the chlorine disinfectant.CONCLUSIONS The correct cleaning methods and instrument care procedures guarantee the cleaning efficacy,disinfections,and the sterilization for the medical instrument.

As the necessary depletion material in hospitals,sterile packing material shows category diversification when being selected.This paper briefly analyzes the functions and values of domestic common sterile packing material such as pure cotton wrap cloth,hard quality packing container,paper/ plastics packing bag and the crease wrapping paper.Reasonable suggestions are also put forward.

Objective　To study the changes of the four active substances endothelin(ET),calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP),thromboxane B2(TXB2) and 6-Keto-prostaglandin F1α(6-Keto-PGF1α) in plasma when they acted on each other in the formation and development of diabetic retinopathy.Methods　Using the method of radio-immunity,the levels of ET,CGRP,TXB2,6-Keto-PGF1α in plasma were measured in four groups of patients with type 2 diabetes (group 1∶40 cases without retinopathy;group 2∶40 cases with primary retinopathy;group 3.40 cases with hyperplasia type of retinopath;group 4∶40 cases normal controls).Results　The results showed that ET increased progressively (P＜0.01) with the prolonging of the duration of DM and the worsening of retina damage、CGRP showed a decreasing tendency (P＜0.05,P＜0.01) in the advanced stage of DM retinopathy.Rectilinear regression analysis showed that the association of ET/CGRP with TXB2/6-Keto-PGF1α became closer with the worsening of deabetic retinopathy (r=0.44,P＜0.05;r=0.596,P＜0.01).Conclusion　The four active substances acted on each other in the formation and development of diabetic retinopathy.It had a significent meaning in the initial mechanism of DM,in the development of disease and in the direction of medication usage to understand their relationship.
