Objective To evaluate feasibility, effectiveness , safety, and complications of superselective bronchial artery embolization with coaxial microcatheter system for hemoptysis. Methods 32 times of superselective bronchial artery embolization were performed for 29 cases with hemoptysis resulted from a variety of causes, age grade from 35 to 71(mean 54) year old. The causes of hemoptysis included bronchiectasis (9 cases), tuberculosis (12 cases), and pulmonary carcinoma (8 cases). All studies were performed with standard percutaneous transfemoral catheterization. Results The success rate of superselective catheterization was 96 9% (32/33). Hemoptysis control was achieved in 96 9% (31/32), with complete control rate of 65.6% (21/32) and partial control rate of 31.3% (10 /32),inefficacy case:only one.One patient with bronchiectasis, 6 patients with pulmonary carcinoma and 3 patients with chronic fibrosis tuberculosis were included in the partial control group. Rebleeding occurred in 7 patients (4 patients with pulmonary carcinoma and 3 patients with chronic fibrosis tuberculosis) during 2 months to 32 months followed-up period. No severe complications occurred in the procedure. Conclusions Superselective bronchial artery embolization for hemoptysis with coaxial microcatheter is a safe, effective way to control hemoptysis, has excellent long term efficacy, and without severe complications.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the establishment of work mode of automatic dispensing system in large-scale integrated pharmacy. METHODS:Introducing the establishment and optimization situation of the automatic pharmacy dispensing system in the outpatient pharmacy of our hospital,changes of related deployment indexes before and after optimization were compared,and the main measures for improving the work efficiency of automatic dispensing system were explored. RE-SULTS:Based on setting and regularly adjusting stored drug varieties,numbers of occupied tracks and unbundled drug factors,de-signing deployment operation mode that the system automatically dispensing preparations to immediate-dispensing and pre-dispens-ing windows,establishing operational specifications and management refinement,the outpatient pharmacy had established automat-ic dispensing system with prescription deployment number more than 12000 pieces/d and optimized work mode. Compared with be-fore optimization,host,auxiliary and smart cabinet varieties were increased in the case of the same number of total staff,immedi-ate-dispensing windows were increased and pre-dispensing windows were decreased. Proportion of full-automatically-dispensed pre-scriptions was increased (up from 41.18% to 48.32%) in the case of total prescription increasing in peak hours,and numbers of hourly prescription deployment were increased in both immediate-dispensing and pre-dispensing windows. Average time to wait for medicine of patients was shortened(down from 5.63 min to 5.18 min),supplemental medicine error and inner errors rate of deploy-ment (down from 0.48% to 0.44%) were decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The established automatic dispensing system mode can meet the needs of prescription deployment in large-scale integrated outpatient pharmacy,and improve the work efficiency by continually optimization.
