Objective To discuss the way and management of extracorporeal circulation (ECC) for totally robotic assisted cardiac surgery. Methods A Total of 226 patients underwent cardiac surgery using da Vinci S robotic surgical system, including 111 patients underwent atrial septal defect repair ( ASDR) , 9 patients underwent ventricular septal defect repair ( VSDR) ,51 patients underwent mitral valvuloplasty ( MVP) , 20 patients underwent mitral valve replacement( MVR) , 27 patients underwent left atrial myxoma excise and 4 patient underwent right atrial myxoma excise. ECC for most of patients was achieved with femoral arterial cannula, femoral venous cannula and right internal jugular venous cannula, except for 1 patient underwent MVP with femoral arterial cannula and femoral two-stage venous cannula. In all the cases, vacuum-assist venous drainage ( VAVD) , continuous blood gas monitoring and ultrafiltration were used during ECC. myocardial protection was pertic cross-clamp time was 40 ~219 (105.9+38. 8)min and 21 ~166 (69.5±30.0)min respectively. During ECC, the mean urine volume was 100-2100 (771.7±477.6) ml, ultrafiltration volume was 1000-4800 (2495.4 ±811.6) ml, and the total fluid balance was subzero-balanced (172 cases) or zero-balanced(13 cases) in most of patients. Conclusion The establishment of ECC system through peripheral vessels, using VAVD and continuous blood gas monitoring are the key points of ECC for totally robotic assisted cardiac surgery, also certain learning curve of perfusion technique and close communication between the surgical team are essential during ECC.

Objective To compare the short-term effects and toxicity of one cycle of TPF regimen induction chemotherapy with that of two cycles of PF regimen induction chemotherapy in the N advanced local nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods A total of 47 patients initially treated with N advanced local NPC without distant metastasis from Jan 2007 to Dec 2008 were enrolled in this study. The TPF chemotherapy regimen was administered as follows: TAX 60 mg/m2, i.v. infusion on day 1st, cisplatin 80 mg/m2, i.v. infusion on day 1st and 5-Fu 800 mg/m2, bolus infusion in 96 hours on day lst-4th. The PF chemotherapy regimen was as follows: cisplatin 100 mg/m2, i.v. infusion on day 1 and 5-Fu 1000 mg/m2, bolus infusion in 96 hours on day lst-4th. Twenty-six patients received one cycle of TPF regimen and 21 patients received two cycles of PF regimen, with 21 days each cycle and a total of 3 courses in each group, then chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin 30 mg/m2 (weekly) was followed. Results The short-term efficacy was no significant difference between two groups, after one cycle TPF chemotherapy, the CR+PR rates of primary site and lymph nodes were 57.7 % and 69.2 %, respectively, while after two cycles PF chemotherapy in control group, those were 66.7 % and 71.4 %, respectively (P>0.05). In 3 months after treatment, the CR rates of primary site and lymph nodes in TPF group were 92.3 % and 88.7 %, respectively, while those in control group were 100.0 % and 90.5 %, respectively (P>0.05). The main adverse reactions were Grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ neutropenia and alopecia in TPF group. Conclusion Short-term effects of induction chemotherapy with one cycle of TPF regimen in the N advanced local NPC is satisfied, and the main toxicity is neutropenia.

Objective To investigate the influence of nursing intervention on perioperative psychological status and treatment compliance of patients undergoing breast augmentation. Methods 82 patients were investigated with self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depression scale (SDS), self-designed mental activity questionnaire on patients with breast augmentation. And they were divided into the intervention group(42 patients) and the control group(40 patients) randomly. The control group was given routine treatment and nursing. The intervention group received systematic nursing intervention such as psychological needs,confidentiality, the relevant specialist knowledge and explanation and prevention o complications besides routine treatment and nursing care. The perioperative psychological status and treatment efficacy were compared between the two groups. Results The worrying degree about operation - related problems was lower in the intervention group compared with that of the control group, but SAS and SDS score showed no significant difference one day before operation between the two groups. SAS and SDS score of the intervention group were improved before discharge compared with those before operation and were also better than those of the control group. Conclusions Patients undergoing breast augmentation surgery subject to a variety of perioperative psychological barriers, systematic nursing intervention can significantly improve the psychological state and treatment compliance, make them to acquire the unification of perfect body shape and psychology with best physical and mental status during perioperative stage.

Objective To investigate the effect of axial load test in Taylor spatial frame treatment of external fixation for tibia and fibula fractures.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 36 patients with open fracture of tibia and fibula admitted to Tianjin Hospital from March 2015 to June 2017.There were 22 males and 14 females,aged 21-71 years[(46.1±14.2)years].All patients received Taylor spatial frame external fixation for tibia and fibula fracture within 1 week after injury.After operation,18 patients received axial load test(experiment group),and the other 18 did not(control group).When the value of axial load test was less than 5% in experiment group,the Taylor spatial frame was removed.The control group used traditional method to remove the Taylor spatial frame.Comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of treatment duration,total cost,re-fracture after Taylor spatial frame removal and incidence of stent-tract infection.Results All patients were followed up for 3-14 months with an average of 8.6 months.Compared with control group,the treatment duration[(36.17±11 .44)weeks vs.(44.50±9.16)weeks]and total cost[(93.7±7.9)thousand yuan vs.(120.1±10.6)thousand yuan]of experiment group were significantly lower(P<0.05).In the experiment group,there was 0 patient with re-fracture and two patients with stent-tract infection,with the complication incidence of 11%,while there were two patients with re-fracture and three patients with stent-tract infection,with the complication incidence of 28% in the control group(P>0.05).Conclusions After Taylor spatial frame external fixation for tibia and fibula fractures,regular axial load test can safely and timely guide the removal of Taylor spatial frame.It can reduce the treatment duration and cost compared with the traditional removal method,being safe and reliable.
