OBJECTIVE:To compare the sedative effects of dexmedetomidine and midazolam in patients with comprehensive ICU mechanical ventilation. METHODS:74 patients in ICU were randomly divided into dexmedetomidine group (37 cases) and midazolam group (37 cases). Based on mechanical ventilation,dexmedetomidine group received 200 μg Dexmedetomidine injec-tion,dissolving in 48 ml 0.9% Sodium chloride injection,pumped by 1 μg/kg within 30 min,then adjusted to 0.2-0.7 μg/(kg·h) by micropump. Midazolam group received 30 mg Midazolam injection,dissolving in 44 ml 0.9% Sodium chloride injection, pumped by 0.05 mg/kg within 15 min,then adjusted to 0.04-0.20 mg/(kg·h)by micropump. The sedative effects,clinical indica-tors(weaning time,extubation time,time of mechanical ventilation,ICU hospitalization time)and the incidence of adverse reac-tions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:There was no significant difference in the sedative effects(P>0.05);weaning time, extubation time,and ICU hospitalization time in dexmedetomidine group were significantly shorter than midazolam group,the dif-ferences were statistically significant(P<0.05);the incidence of total adverse reactions in dexmedetomidine group was significant-ly lower than midazolam group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Dexmedetomidine show similar sedative effects with midazolam in patients with comprehensive ICU mechanical ventilation,shorter weaning time,extuba-tion time,ICU hospitalization time,and lower incidence of total adverse reactions than midazolam.

Objective To retrospectively demonstrate risk factors for mortality in multiple trauma patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Method This wes a retrospective cohort stuay regarding multi-ple trauma as a single cause for intensive care unit admission.Patients identified multiple trauma with ARDS en-rolled in prospectively maintained database between May 2003 and April 2008 were observed,and 23 items of po-tential risk factors of impacting mortality were calculated by univariate and multivariate logistic analyses in order to find distinctive items in these multiple trauma patients.Information on patients demographics characteristics,treat-ment procedures and injury severity were collected at the time of EICU admission.The criteria used for ARDS met definition of the guideline(2006)of Chinese medical association.The commonly accepted definition of multiple injuries was consistent with both several injury sites(generated from two or more than two anatomic sites)and in-jury in one anatomic site at least threatening life.Severity of injury was quantified by injury severity seore and the simplified acute physiology score and chronic health evaluation score (APACHE Ⅱ)in EICU admission.We in-cluded adult patients(age≥18 years),those with an EICU length of stay longer than 48 hours,and those accept-ing mechanical ventilation more than 24 hours.Patients who were readmitted to EICU by virtue of non-traffic injury or transferred to EICU from other hospitals after long-term treatment were excluded.Mortality was assessed at the 28th clay after trauma.Results There were 269 multiple trauma patients with posttranmatic ARDS admitted to ICU during the study period,the unadjusted odds ratio(OR)and 95% confidence intervals(CI)of mortality were associated with six risk factors(APACHE Ⅱ score,duration of tratuna factor,pulmonary contusion,aspiration of gastric contents,sepsis and duration of mechanical ventilation)out of 23 items.The adjusted Odds Ratios(ORs) with 95% CI were denoted with respect to surviving beyond 96 hours ICU admission(APACHE Ⅱ score,duration of trauma factor,aspiration of gastric contents),APACHE Ⅱ score beyond 20 ICU admission(duration of trauma factor,scpsis,duration of mechanical ventilation)and mechanical ventilation beyond 7 days ICU admission(dura-tion of trauma factor and sepsis).Conclusions Impact of pulmonary contusion and APACHE Ⅱ score contribut-ing to prediction of mortality may exist in prophase after multiple trauma.Sepsis is still a vital risk factor referring to systemic inflammatory response syndrome,infection,and secondary multiple organs dysthnetion.Aspiration of gastric contents could lead to incremental mortality due to scvere ventilation associated pneumonia.Duration of trauma factor determined degree of injury and outcomes,longer duration generally manifested higher mortality.Long-standing mechanical ventilation should be constrained on account of occurring severe refractory complications.

Objective To effectually record cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) procedure, analyze and compare the CPR performance of all medical and nursing staffs to find out the existed information for the improvement of the quality of CPR and its survival rate. Methods The medical data were collected according to the Utstein Criteria and CPR event was automatically recorded by a digital video-recording system, by which hands-off times within 10 minutes of CPR and times for installation of chest compression machine, establishment of endotracheal intubation and establishment of the venous channel were analyzed. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to analyze the factors affecting CPR effect. Results ① During the period from December 2009 to December 2015, a total of 376 patients with cardiac arrest (CA) was registered, including 248 males and 128 females, with a median age of 68 (53, 78) years. Estimated median time interval from CA to CPR initiation was 5.0 (0.1, 20.0) minutes and there were 189 cases less than or equal to 5 minutes. The acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with 145 cases (38.6%) was the main etiology of CA. Initial shockable rhythm was found in 16 patients (7.0%) out of 230 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients, of whom 13 underwent ventricular fibrillation (5.7%), 3 underwent ventricular tachycardia (1.3%). Initial shockable rhythm was found in 47 patients (32.2%) out of 146 in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) patients, of whom 40 underwent ventricular fibrillation (27.4%), and 7 underwent ventricular tachycardia (4.8%). CPR by a mechanical device (Thumper) was performed in 219 patients (58.2%). In 376 patients, 186 patients had return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC, 49.5%), a successful CPR (ROSC ≥ 24 hours) was found in 110 patients (29.3%), 99 patients was hospitalized alive (26.3%) and 40 patients were discharged alive (10.6%). In 146 cases of IHCA, 89 patients had ROSC (61.0%), a successful CPR was found in 63 patients (43.2%), 56 patients were hospitalized alive (38.4%), and 29 patients were discharged alive (19.9%). In 230 patients of OHCA, 89 patients had ROSC (38.7%), 65 patients received pre-hospital CPR (28.3%), a successful CPR was found in 47 patients (20.4%), 43 patients were hospitalized alive (18.7%), and 11 patients were discharged alive (4.8%). There were 37 patients had a successful CPR (69.8%), and 25 patients were discharged alive (47.2%) in 53 patients with ventricular fibrillation. ② There were 77 patients with valid video information for analysis of CPR performance, with 48 patients of OHCA, and 29 patients of IHCA. Delay median time from the patients presence in the resuscitation room to be placed in rescue bed was 22 (0, 33) seconds. Hands-off median times during 10 minutes of CPR was 41 (18, 90) seconds. Thumper installment median times was 43 (31, 69) seconds. Median time for endotracheal intubation was 59 (35, 109) seconds. Median time of venous catheter placement was 112 (70, 165) seconds. It was shown by multivariate regression analysis that there was a significant correlation between estimated time interval from CA to CPR performed, hands-off time and success rate of CPR (t1 = -3.452, t2 = -2.729), rate of discharge alive (t1 = -2.328, t2 = -2.736, all P < 0.05). In 48 OHCA patients, success rate of CPR was significantly correlated with estimated time interval from collapse to CPR performed (t = -2.409, P = 0.021). In 29 IHCA patients, success rate of CPR and rate of discharge alive was significantly correlated with hands-off times (t1 = -3.412, t2 = -2.536, both P < 0.05). Conclusions Survival to hospital discharge following CA is significantly correlated with the time interval from collapse to CPR performed and hands-off times in CPR. Installment and usage of Thumper should be postponed in order to reduce hands-off times during CPR in IHCA.
