Objective:to investigate the psychological status of the patients suffering from hemoptysis caused by bronchiectasis and influence to hemostasia therapy.Methods:patients were randomly divided into two groups (study group and control group) after their psychological status was collected with SCL-90. The study group received supportive psychotherapy. Both groups were evaluated by parameters such as change of the blood pressure, dosage of pituitrin and duration of hemoptysis.Results:Among all 62 patients, 83.87% were in anxiety, 66.13% had fear. 32.26% of the patients had hypertension relevant to psychological factors, in some of them (20.97%) the use of pituitrin was limited. The time of the mean duration of the hemoptysis decreased to 5 days in the study group, while it was 7 days in the control group.Conclusion:Patients suffering from hemoptysis caused by bronchiectasis usually have mood disturbance, which leads to hypertension. The psychological factors affect not only the hemoptysis but also the use of pituitrin. Supportive psychotherapy is effective in shortening the duration of hemoptysis.

Objective To compare the effect of perineal cleansing with the potassium permanganate or sterile water on mid- stream urine culture. Methods Mid- stream specimens of urine were obtained from inpatients in our hospital between January 2002 and December 2006. All these patients may be diag-nosed as urinary tract infection. The urine specimens were divided into the potassium permanganate group (n=1572, the sterilization group) and the sterile water group (n=544). The change of positive and contami-nation rate of mid-stream urine culture from the specimens was observed. More than two kinds of germs in one urine specimen were defined as contamination. Results 830 patients with urinary tract infection had been enrolled. 2116 specimens were collected and 531 strains of causative organism were detected. The positive rate of the sterilization group and the sterile water group was 20.04% and 39.71%, respectively,and such difference was significant. The rate of identical causative organism from the same patient whose spec-imen was cultivated twice in the sterilization group was 0.012% and the rate was 0.105% in the sterile water group. The difference was significant. The rate of different or one kind of causative organism from the same patient whose specimen was cultivated twice in these two groups hadn't significant deviation. The contami-nation rate of the sterilization group (0.028%) was significantly higher than that of the sterile water group (0.007%). Conclusions Perineal cleansing with sterile water can reduce the false negative rate of mid-stream urine culture without increasing the contamination rate. Potassium permanganate sterilization is re-sponsible for the high false-negative in mid-stream urine culture.

Objective To investigate the influence of acute hypervolemic hemodilution(HHD)on pharmacokinetics of propofol.Methods Sixteen ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 20-55 yrs undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia combined with epidural analgesia were randomly allocated into 2 groups(n=8 each);Ⅰ control group and Ⅱ HHD group.The patients were premedicated with intramuscular phenobarbital 0.1 g and scopolamine 0.3 mg.Right internal jugular vein was cannulated for CVP monitoring and blood sampling.Radial artery was cannulated for BP monitoring.All patients in both groups received lactated Ringer's solution(0.7 ml?kg~(-1)? number of hours of fasting before operation)before induction of general anesthesia.In HHD group 4% gelofusine 20 ml?kg~(-1) was infused at the rate of 20 ml?kg~(-1)?h~(-1).Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.04 mg?kg~(-1),fentanyl 4 ?g?kg~(-1) and propofol 1.5 mg?kg~(-1).Tracheal intubation was facilitated by succinylcholine 2 mg?kg~(-1).Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane,fentanyl,vecuronium and epidural analgesia.ECG,BP, SpO_2,P_(ET)CO_2 and CVP were continuously monitored.Blood samples were taken at 1,2,4,6,10,15,30,45, 60,75,90,120,150,180,240,300 and 360 min after propofol was given Ⅳ for determination of plasma concentration of propofol(HPLC).Pharmacokinetic data were analyzed by 3P97 pharmacokinetic software.Results The two groups were comparable with respect to demographic data.Blood propofol concentrations were significantly lower in HHD group than in control group at 1,2,4,6,10 min after propofol injection(P<0.01), thereafter there was no significant difference in plasma propofol concentration between the two groups(P>0.05). The pharmacokinetic profile of propofol was well described by a standard three-compartment model.In HHD group V_C was significantly increased,K_(10) and Cl were significantly decreased and T_(1/2?) was significantly prolonged as compared with control group.Conclusion Acute HHD increases V_C,prolongs the T_(1/2?) and decreases K_(10) and Cl, suggesting that the effect of propofol may be potentiated by acute HHD.
