Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2010;17(13):1748-1750
Objective To research the association between the prognosis of Acinetobacter baumannii infection and drug resistance among patients in the intensive care unit( ICU). Methods Eighty-four patients with Acine tobacter baumannii infection from February 2003 to April 2009 in Peking University Shenzhen Hospital ICU were retrospectively analyzed and divided into alive group(59 patients) and dead group(25 patients) by using 30-day mortality. The impact of drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii on mortality was assessed by binary logistic regression. Results The mortality of patients with Acinetobacter baumannii infection was related to age, haematological malignancy, the Chanson Comorbidity Index, APACHEII score, multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii ( MDRAB) , carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB ) , septic shock and antimicrobial inappropriate therapy by univariate analysis( P < 0.05). Binary logistic regression revealed that CRAB( OR = 3. 360,95%CI: 1. 563 ~7.223,P< 0.05)and the Charison Comorbidity Index( OR = 1. 633,95% CI: 1. 201 ~2. 221 ,P <0.05) were independent risk factors. Conclusions The prognosis of Acinetobacter baumannii infection was closely correlated with drug resistance. The patients with CRAB infection had a higher mortality.

Objective To investigate the perioperative management and video-assisted thoraco-scopic (VATS) extended thymectomy for myasthenia gravis ( MG ). Methods A total of 102 patients who received extended thymectomy for MG from June 2000 to August 2007 were divided into 2 groups by operative approach: 51 in the VATS group and 51 in the full median sternotomy group. The clinical features, including operation time, operation blood loss, post-operative drainage, inci-dence of crisis, hospital stay, and the 1-year total effective rate after the operation were compared. Complications were treated exactly and cholinesterase inhibitors were applied to control the symptom of MG before the operation. The whole thoracic gland and fat in the anterior mediastinum were removed. Steroid, cholinesterase inhibitors and plasmapheresis were used to prevent and cure masthemic crisis after the operation. Results No patients died in the operation and hospitalization. There was no sig-nificant difference in the operation time [(128.14±34.82) min vs. (130.46±28.71) min] and the 1-year total effective rate after the operation (85.8% vs. 87.2% )in the 2 groups(P>0.05).The operation blood loss, postoperative drainage, incidence of crisis, and postoperative hospital stay in the median sternotomy group were higher or longer than those in the VATS group [(93.77±21.64) mL vs. (45.42±10.96)mL,P<0.05; (174.65±21.64)mL vs. (101.33±28.76) mL,P <0.01;7.84% vs. 1.96%, P<0.05;(14.23±3.17)d vs. (8.37±1.18)d, P<0.05)]. Conclusion VATS extended thymectomy for myasthenia gravis is safe, less invasive and effective. Preoperative preparation and the perioperative managemant can decrease the incidence of crisis. The plasmapheresis is the key of curing masthemic crisis.

Benzyltetrahydropalmatine ( BTHP ) which is a derivative of tet-rahydropalmatine, induced concentration-dependent decreases of the APA & dV/dt max and prolongation of conduction delay (CD) in toad sciatic neural action potential while it has little effect on APD.Bloocking action of Na+ -channel was measured with the dose required to produce 50% diminution of the value of APA, ie,EC50. EC50 of BTHP was 2.8 folds less than that of lidocaine and 11.9 folds more than that of quinidine, reflecting blocking action of Na+ -channel by BTHP, lidocaine, quinidine respectively.

The action of BTHP on a-adrenoceptor was studied in anococcy-geus muscles, vas deferens and cell membrane of cerebral cortex of rats and aortic strips, saphenous vein of rabbit. BTHP produced parallel shifts to the right of dose-response curves for phenylephrine in rat anococcygeus muscle and rabbit aortic strips without change in the maximal responses. Their pA2 values were 5.8 and 5.86 respectively. BTHP was also a competitive antagonist for presynaptic and postsynaptic ?2-adrenoceptors on prostatic portion of rat vas deferens( pA2 against clonidine=5.2 ) and on rabbit saphenous vein ( pA2 against B-HT920=5.3 ) . BTHP decreased in dose-dependent manner 〔8H〕 prazosin and 〔3H〕 clonidine specific binding to ?1- and ?2- adrenoceptors on cell membrane of cerebral cortex in rats with IC50 of4 and 9.5 ?mol/L and with Ki ( apparent dissociation constant ) of 3.5 and 8.1?mol/L respectively, suggeating that BTHP has affinity for both ?1 and ?2- adrenoceptors of rat cerebrance.

Myocardial protection has been the subject of intensive investigation. Several studies have suggested that Ginsenosides may protect against ischemia/reperfusion injury. The isolated, working rat heart model was used in this study to evaluate the effects of St. Thomas' Hospital Cardioplegic Solution containing various concentrations of Ginsenosides on the enhancement of myocardial protection following hypothermic ischemic arrest (20 ℃, 120 min). The added concentration of Ginsenosides in cardioplegic solution was 0(control), 50, 100 150?g/ml, respectively. Recoveries of aortic flow, cardiac output, and minute work were markedly improved by adding Ginsenosides to cardioplegia. Dose-response study indicated that 100?g/ml in cardioplegia had the best protective effects, in which group the generation of thiobarbituric acid reactive materials (MDA) was markedly reduced. Our results indicated that Ginsenosides provides additional myocardial protection in St. Thomas' Hospital Cardioplegia. Addition of Ginsenosides to cardioplegia may protect the ischsmic myocardium from free-radical injury also.

Objective To evaluate the effect of optimizing surgerical patients’handover procedures using tracking methodology.Methods Two hundred patients hospitalized between July 2011 and May 2012 were assigned in the control group,in which their handover was conduced conventionally.Another 200 patients between April 2012 to February 2012 were assigned in the observation group,where their handover was done by tracking methodology.The two groups were compared in terms of incidence of adverse events at handover,time for handover and satisfaction of medical staff.Result Compared with the control group,the study group showed significantly lower incidence of adverse events,shorter surgical handover time and higher satisfaction degree of medical staff(P<0.05).Conclusion The tracking methodology can help to optimize handover procedures and quality control management, reduce the incidence of adverse events and improve working efficiency.
