objective To evaluate the prognostic value of five scoring systems including acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ score (APACHE Ⅱ ),Ranson score,sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA),Balthazar CT severity index (CTSI) and modified early warning score (MEWS) in early prognosis of severe acute pancreatis.Methods One hundred and fifty-four patients with severe acute pancreatitis from January 2004 to January 2010 were studied retrospectively,and data pertinent to five scoring systems were recorded from day 1 to day 3 after admission in hospital All patients were divided into early non-survival group (43 cases) and early survival group ( 111 cases) by survival time after admission in hospital.Five scoring systems during first 3 days aftter admission and their prognostic value in early prognosis of severe acute pancreatitis was compared between two groups.Results Compared with that of early survival group,every day five scoring systems of early non-survival group were significantly higher in the first 3 days after admission (P < 0.05 or < 0.01 ).On day 1 after admission,APACHE Ⅱ was the most accurate predict of early mortality with area under curve (AUC) value of 0.879,closely followed by MEWS (AUC 0.858).On day 2 and 3 after admission,the MEWS was the most accurate predict of early mortality with AUC 0.900 and 0.942,respectively.Conclusion MEWS is more accurate predict of early mortality in severe acute pancreatitis among different scoring systems,worthy of generalization in clinic.

ObjectiveTo observe the change of blood phosphorus and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP) in patients with severe acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning (AOPP)and explore their clinical significance.MethodsSeventy-eight severe AOPP patients were selected and divided into dead group (54 cases) and survival group (24 cases).NT-proBNP and blood phosphorus were examined when the patients were just hospitalized,and after 1,2,4 d and when they were turn out from ICU or before the patients dead.ResultsComparing with survival group,blood phosphorus and NT-proBNP of dead group had no significant difference when the patients were just hospitalized(P> 0.05 ).After 1,2 and 4d NT-proBNP of dead group [ ( 1986.5 ± 24.9),(3568.2 ± 56.9),(7829.0 ± 64.3 ) ng/L ]was higher than that of survival group [ ( 1068.4 ± 20.2),(986.6 ± 16.4),(943.7 ± 14.6) ng/L,P < 0.05 or < 0.01 ],while blood phosphorus was significant lower than that in survival group [ ( 1.22 ± 0.13 ),(0.81 ± 0.10),(0.58 ±0.07 ) mmol/L vs.( 1.53 ± 0.16),( 1.48 ± 0.13 ),( 1.46 ± 0.14 ) mmol/L,P < 0.05 or < 0.01 ].NT-proBNP of dead group increased and blood phosphorusreduced gradually by time extending (P < 0.05).NT-proBNP was lower when patients were turn out from ICU than that when the patients were just hospitalized [ (327.5 ±12.3) ng/L vs. (1023.3 ± 18.8) ng/L,P < 0.05].Blood phosphorus had no difference at all time points in survival group (P > 0.05 ).NT-proBNP was higher [ ( 31 486.5 ± 120.7) ng/L vs.(327.5 ± 12.3) ng/L,P <0.01 ]and blood phosphorus was lower [ (0.24 ± 0.03 ) mmol/L vs.( 1.57 ± 0.15 ) mmol/L,P < 0.01 ]before death in dead group compared with those at the time turning out from ICU in survival group.Conclusions The value of NT-proBNP increased and blood phosphorus reduced gradually with disease progression.NT-proBNP and blood phosphorus were important factors reflecting the prognosis of blood AOPP patients.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of acupuncture on acute renal injury of sepsis.Methods From January 2015 to May 2017,adult patients with sepsis who received ≥ 7 days of treatment were collected from the Central Hospital of Zhuzhou.The participants were randomly divided into the control group (n =35) and the treatment group (n =37),and the control group was given routine treatment according to the sepsis guidelines.On the basis of control group,the treatment group was given acupuncture treatment,acupoints Shenshu and Sanyinjiao,Taixi,Zusanli.The clinical effects of the two groups of patients were compared.Results The levels of cystatin C,blood urea nitrogen and creatinine in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the number and proportion of patients with blood purification between the two groups (P > 0.05),while the frequency and time of blood purification treatment in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).The levels of blood interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).From the fourth day of treatment,the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in mortality between the two groups at 28 days (P > 0.05).Conclusions Acupuncture of Shenshu,Sanyinjiao,Taixi,Zusanli can improve sepsis patients with acute kidney injury in renal function.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of early goal-directed sedation with dexme-detomidine in patients with septic shock.Methods This study is selected from August 2015 to December 2016 in our department 70 patients receiving treatment of septic shock,and through random sample table method divided into the control group and the study group two,there were 32 cases in control group,the control group selected ob-ject according to the conventional sedation treatment,namely the application of midazolam extraction treatment, the study group of 38 patients with septic shock in patients with application of dexmedetomidine sedation,analysis and application of different sedation method analysis of two groups of patients with septic shock. The efficacy and safety of observation and etc. Results Two groups of patients with different treatment methods,The onset time of the study group of patients with septic shock after sedation,h recovery time and time of mechanical ventilation was obviously better than the control group,the effect of difference(P < 0.05),has significant research value. Conclusions For patients with septic shock early goal orientation selection and application of sedation of dexme-detomidine can play a better effect,the more safe and effective,sedation score is high,it is worth of application in clinical treatment.
