Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine in Intensive and Critical Care 2019;26(4):452-454
Objective To observe the effects of nasal feeding with different enteral nutrition (EN) agents, TPF-D emulsion and Briprin (SP) suspension on blood glucose level in patients with hyperglycemia under mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery of extracorporeal circulation (CPB). Methods Forty patients with mechanical ventilation and hyperglycemia after CPB cardiac surgery admitted to the Department of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Jinhua People's Hospital from August 2016 to October 2018 were selected. According to the different EN preparations given after the surgery, the patients were divided into two groups: a TPF-D group (21 cases) and a Briprin group (19 cases). Both groups were given reasonable analgesia, sedation and other conventional treatment to maintain the hemodynamic stability and balances between water electrolytes and acid-base. EN therapy was applied within 24 ~48 hours after ICU admission and caloric requirements were calculated according to ideal body weight. The EN treatment in TPF-D group was given by TPF-D nasal feeding, the drip rate started from 20-30 mL/h and gradually increased to 50-100 mL/h according to patients' tolerance; in the Briprin group, EN was given by nasal feeding of SP, and the feeding mode was the same as that of TPF-D group. The mechanical ventilation time, postprandial 2 hours blood glucose level and blood glucose increase rate of the two groups were observed; the glycosylated albumin (GA) and serum triglyceride (TG) levels were measured 3 days after EN administration, and the first postoperative defecation time was also observed in the two groups. Results After EN therapy, there were no statistically significant differences in mechanical ventilation time and TG level after 3 days of EN treatment between the TPF-D group and the SP group [mechanical ventilation time (hours): 31.52±19.56 vs. 27.26±14.35, TG (mmol/L) after 3 days of EN therapy: 1.32±0.37 vs. 1.62±0.57, both P > 0.05]. The glucose level and glucose increase rate at postprandial 2 hours, and GA level after 3 days of EN therapy in TPF-D group were obviously lower than those in the SP group [glucose level 2 hours postprandial (mmol/L): 7.68±1.20 vs. 11.60±1.69, the glucose increase rate at 2 hours postprandial: (-0.01±0.15)% vs. (0.39±0.24)%, and GA after 3 days of EN therapy: (12.81±1.64)% vs. (16.32±2.35)%, all P < 0.01]. The time of the first bowel movement in the TPF-D group was earlier than that in the SP group (days: 2.48±0.51 vs. 3.84±0.69, P < 0.01). Conclusion The effect of applying TPF-D EN emulsion was less than that of SP suspension on glucose level in post-operative CPB patients with hyperglycemia and after mechanical ventilation, showing when using TPF-D, the stability of blood glucose is better and defecation earlier.
4.Clinical study on the safety of dexmedetomidine withdrawal in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation after cardiopulmonary bypass in ICU
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2020;27(7):824-827
Objective:To compare the safety of dexmedetomidine and midazolam in weaning mechanical ventilation patients after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in ICU.Methods:From August 2016 to December 2018, 51 patients admitted to the People's Hospital of Jinhua for mechanical ventilation after ICU CPB cardiac surgery were randomly divided into dexmedetomidine group and midazolam group according to the numerical table method.During mechanical ventilation, dexmedetomidine was used to sedate the study group(26 cases), and midazolam was used in the control group (25 cases). The total time of mechanical ventilation, CPOT score, ICDSC score, incidence of sinus bradycardia during mechanical ventilation were counted, and the anterograde amnesia was observed after extubation.The safety and related factors of drug withdrawal in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation after CPB surgery of two different sedations were compared and evaluated.Results:Statistical analysis showed that the CPOT score of the dexmedetomidine group was (1.04±0.45)points, which was significantly lower than that of the midazolam group[(2.24±0.83)points], the difference was statistically significant between the two groups( t=-6.40, P<0.01). The ICDSC score of the dexmedetomidine group was (0.96±0.20)points, which of the midazolam group was (1.04±0.35)points, the difference was no statistically signiyicant between the two groups( t=-0.99, P>0.05). The total time of mechanical ventilation was (29.71±17.96)h in the dexmedetomidine group and (26.13±20.02)h in the midazolam group, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups( t=0.67, P>0.05). During mechanical ventilation sedation, the dexmedetomidine group had more bradycardia, the difference was statistically significant(χ 2=11.96, P<0.01). There was no anterograde amnesia in the dexmedetomidine group, but all of the patients in the midazolam group had anterograde amnesia. Conclusion:Compared with the midazolam group, the CPOT score was lower in the dexmedetomidine sedation group with the same SAS score of 4(superficial sedation), which in line with the principles of " deep analgesia, shallow sedation". Although bradycardia occurs during the use of drugs, it can recover spontaneously after withdrawal and is safe to use.

AIM:To observe the anti-scarring effects and safety of triamcinolone acetonide(TA)-loaded hydrogel sustained-release sheeting on stab incision glaucoma surgery(SIGS)with “one-step tunnel method” in rabbit eyes.METHODS:A total of 48 healthy New Zealand white rabbits were randomly selected and divided into 4 groups(12 rabbits in each group), trabeculectomy(Trab)group, SIGS group, polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel(PVAH)sheeting was implanted under the conjunctiva flap during SIGS(PVAH group), and hydrogel sustained-release sheeting loaded with TA was implanted under the conjunctiva flap during SIGS(TA/PVAH group). On the 1, 2, 3, and 4 wk after surgery, the intraocular pressure, filtering bubble morphology, anterior chamber reaction, and other complications were observed and recorded in each group. Then animals were euthanized, and the surgery area tissues of right eye were taken for pathological tissue paraffin section. Masson staining, picric acid-Sirius rose red staining, as well as α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)and fibroblast growth factor 2(FGF2)immunohistochemistry staining was performed on every section. The infiltration of inflammatory cells, proliferation of fibroblasts and synthesis of type I and type III collagen fibers in local tissues were observed. The average positive area ratio of α-SMA and FGF2 antibody immunohistochemical staining in each group was calculated and compared.RESULTS: The TA/PVAH group maintained diffuse and elevated functional filtering blebs, while flat filtering blebs appeared in Trab, SIGS and PVAH groups at 2 wk after surgery. Functional filtering blebs were present in 1 eye(33%), 2 eyes(67%)in the PVAH and TA/PVAH group at 4 wk after surgery, respectively, while the other filtering blebs were flattened. Masson staining showed that the hydrogels in PVAH and TA/PVAH groups did not degrade at 4 wk after surgery. Compared with the Trab and SIGS groups, the filtration passages were more obvious, with less collagen fiber proliferation. Sirius red staining showed that the expression of type I collagen and type III collagen in the TA/PVAH group was less than that in the Trab group, SIGS group and PVAH group at 4 wk after surgery. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the α-SMA expression in the TA/PVAH group was significantly lower than that in the Trab and SIGS groups at 1 wk after surgery(P<0.01). The α-SMA expression was the highest in the Trab and SIGS groups at 2 wk after surgery, while the α-SMA expression in the PHAP and TA/PVAH groups was significantly lower than that in the first two groups(P<0.01). Compared with the Trab group, the expression of FGF2 in the PVAH and TA/PVAH group was significantly increased at 1, 2, 3 and 4 wk after surgery(P<0.05). Compared with the SIGS group, FGF2 expression in the TA/PVAH group was significantly increased at 4 wk after surgery(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:In SIGS surgery of rabbit eyes, implanting hydrogel sustained-release sheeting loaded with TA under conjunctival flap can effectively inhibit the scarring of the filtering bleb, which may be the interaction of the anti-scar effect of TA and the stent function of hydrogel.
