Objective To investigate the duration for silicon gastric tube to indwell in stomach of aged patients.Methods One hundred elderly patients needing long-term nutrition support were equally randomized into two groups: control group and observation group.The former had the gastric tubes indwelled in the stomach for 4 weeks and the latter for 3 weeks.The two groups were compared about the used tubes in terms of the color of tube at the length of the first 10cm,the indentation by reflection for 10 seconds at the tube of first 10 cm,the hardness of the tube at the length of the first 10 cm and the springback angle of tube at the first 10cm after reflection.Results The tubes in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group in terms of color,indentation,hardness and springback angle(all P<0?01).Conclusion The duration of indwelling silicon gastric tubes in stomach can be three weeks for old patients needing long-term nutrition support via indwelling silicon tubes in their stomach.

Objective To study a quick and effective assessing method used in the emergency trauma patients in order to prevent delaying treatment for patients from overlook or misdiagnosis during triage. Method From 1 January 2006 to 31 September 2006, there were 4023 patients evaluated with trauma assessment method, which was composed of CRAMS scale and trauma assessment program. Results Of 4023 patients, there were 2430 cases with CRAMS below 1( < 7) ,of whom 1979 cases assessed with trauma assessment program were found to be injuried severely to threaten their lives. And more noticeably,of 1593 patients with CRAMS ≥7 there were 46 patients found to have life-threatening injuries assessed with trauma assessment method. Conclutions CRAMS score can be used for triage, and trauma assessment program can be used to evaluate the injuries anatomically. Trauma assessment program and CRAMS employed conjointly can increase the sensitivity and specificity for the stratification of the severity in the injuried patients in order to get a successful triage and lo take advantage of the resources of e-mergency care appropriately.

Objective To study the clinical effect of continuous central venous pressure monitoring and select a better method for central venous pressure momtoring. Methods Continuous central venous pressure wag monitored by connecting pressure sensor to central venous catheter in 56 patients with open heart operation.At the same time routine monitoring method was used in the same central venous vein of the saine patient The CVP values from the two methods were compared for 100 times and analyzed the difference.Results The VCP values of the two groups had no statistical difference(P＞0.05).Conclusions Continuous monitoring by pressure sensor had advantages such as continuous data,dynamic,direct-viewing,Veracious and decreased chance of infection.It could reduce the workload of nurses and possessed more clinical value compared with routine monitoring method.

To summarize the clinical experience of Professor WANG Meng-yong in the treatment of uric acid nephropathy. Professor WANG believes that the disease is mainly caused by spleen and kidney deficiency, disorder of function of Sanjiao, and pathological products, such as phlegm dampness and blood stasis and other metabolic disorders. Therefore, the treatment should distinguish symptoms and essence. Starting from pathogenesis and pathological features of spleen and kidney deficiency and phlegm dampness and blood stasis, the treatment should flexibly apply the methods of nourishing spleen and kidney, reducing phlegm and dispelling humidity, and activating blood and using diuretic of hydragogue to alleviate water retention, which can greatly reduce side effects caused by the long-term use of Western medicine and the onset of gout, and then to help disease recovery.

Objective Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Heqi San combined with metformin in the treatment of obese polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods A total of 60 patients with obese polycystic ovary syndrome who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into 2 groups, 30 patients in each group. The control group was treated with metformin, and the treatment group was treated with Heqi San on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 3 months. The FPG was determined by glucose oxidase method, and fasting insulin (FINS), TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C level were measured by radio immunoassay, and the insulin resistance index (IR) was measured by the method of HOMA-IR. The luteotropic hormone (LH), pro follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and testosterone (T) were detected by the automatic electrochemical light detector, and the ratio of LH/FSH was calculated. The ovarian volume and body mass index changes and clinical effect were evaluated. Results After treatment, the BMI (20.09 ± 3.12 kg/cm2 vs. 23.39 ± 1.43 kg/cm2, t=6.889), FPG (4.44 ± 0.17 mmol/L vs. 4.74 ± 0.16 mmol/L, t=6.945), FINS (10.69 ± 2.41 IU/L vs. 16.29 ± 5.95 IU/L, t=4.778), TC (3.91 ± 0.50 mmol/L vs. 4.20 ± 0.39 mmol/L, t=2.505), LDL-C (2.64 ± 0.63 mmol/L vs. 3.18 ± 0.62 mmol/L, t=3.346), LH (8.70 ± 2.44 U/L vs. 10.27 ± 2.69 U/L, t=2.934), the ratio of LH/FSH (1.33 ± 0.58 vs. 2.18 ± 0.56, t=5.775), T (1.73 ± 0.74 nmol/L vs. 2.95 ± 1.10 nmol/L, t=5.040) and ovarian volume (12.61 ± 2.29 mm3 vs. 14.26 ± 2.52 mm3, t=6.982) in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The FSH (7.33 ± 2.28 U/L vs. 5.95 ± 1.20 U/L, t=2.934) in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate in the treatment group was 83.3% (25/30) and 63.3% (19/30) in the control group. The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (χ2=3.068, P=0.050). Conclusions The Heqi San combined with metformin can effectively improve the body mass index, glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism index and sex hormone level, and reduce the volume of ovary in patients with PCOS, and the curative effect is better than that of oral metformin alone.
