Objective: The paper inquires into a new external temporary cardiac pacing method. Method: The research uses a microcomputer-based multi-functional external temporary cardiac-pacing device made by the authors for sending pacing signals. The pacing mode and pacing rate of the device can be adjustable. The pacing pulse width and pacing current of the device can also be adjustable. It inserts a syringe necdle-like negative pacing pole into the chest muscle in the prior-cardiac area of a male adult mongrel dog; it pastes a positive pacing pole on the back area near heart of the dog. It takes intravenous injection isoptin 5mg into the male mongrel dog. After 5 minutes, the heartbeat of the dog suddenly stops; it does pacing experiment for the dog at this time and observes the results of the pacing experiment. Results: After temporary cardiac pacing, the heartbeat of the dog returns, pacing ECG of the dog appears, the pacing for the dog is active. Conclusions: It is a new and benefit external temporary cardiac pacing method.

Objective To compare the effectiveness of medicated γintrauterine device (IUD) and medicated genefix IUD inserted immediately after abortion. Methods A multicenter clinical trail was performed for the study from Mar. 2012 to Jan. 2013. Totally 840 women who volunteered to participate were randomly allocated to γ-group (medicated γ IUD) or genefix-group (medicated genefix IUD) immediately after abortion. While 464 abortion women who had not used IUD or steroids contraceptive methods were chosen as control group. The effectiveness of the IUD were followed up for 1 year. All women were required to record the number of vaginal bleeding days and blood volume of vaginal bleeding within 3 months after abortion. Results At the 12th month, the expulsion was the most common reason for termination. The expulsion rates of genefix-group and γ-group were 2.48/100 women years and 3.12/100 women years, respectively (P>0.05). For the expulsion reasons, IUD moving down could account for more than seventy percent. The removal rate for IUD usage of two IUD groups were almost equal (3.91/100 women years verus 4.35/100 women years), the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). At the 90th day after abortion, comparing with control group, the bleeding and (or) spotting days of genefix-group and γ-group extended by 3.9 and 2.6 days respectively, the differences had statistical significance between the three groups (P<0.05). Among the bleeding and (or) spotting days, spotting days prolonged significantly. At the 12th month, spotting days of genefix-group andγ-group were (9.2±5.9) days and (8.5±4.6) days respectively, more than (5.2 ± 4.0) days of control group. The differences had statistical significance between IUD with control group (P<0.05), and had not between the two kinds of IUD (P>0.05). Conclusion The insertion of medicated genefix IUD and medicated γ IUD immediately after abortion is safe, feasible, has slight side effects and could be effective contraception.

In gynecology, it is very important to obtain the parameters of women's uterine musculature, such as its deformation size and contraction frequency, etc. This paper proposes a type of sensor for measuring these parameters and also analyzes its force situation. The sensor is flexible, deformable, and can adjust itself to the shape of the uterus. It can be put into the women's uterine cavity easily. The experiment shows that the sensitivity of the left and right sets coils of the sample sensor achieves 22.38 nH/mm2, while that of the top set coils achieves 22.84 nH/mm2, and the reaction time of the sensor is less than 200 ms. These results can meet the requirements of sensitivity and reaction time for testing the contraction situation of uterine musculature. The sensor has been applied in some medical fields.
