OBJECTIVE To investigate the characters of urinary noscomial infection in intensive care unit(ICU)of our hospital in order to reduce its incidence. METHODS The 661 patients in ICU of our hospital from Jan 2005 to Jun 2006 were analyzed,and in which 63 nosocomial urinary infection patients(9.53%) were found.We analyzed the 63 patients retrospectively. RESULTS Nosocomial urinary infection occurred in 9.53% patients admitted to the ICU.Nosocomial urinary infection in ICU was correlated with ages,using of antibiotics and hormones,duration of catheterization and APACHEⅡ score,but not with gender.The most prevalent pathogens of nosocomial urinary infection in ICU were fungi(40.66%),gram-negative bacteria(31.87%) and Gram-positive bacteria(27.46%).The clinical manifestation of nosocomial urinary infection in ICU was atypical. CONCLUSIONS Nosocomial urinary infection in ICU has its own characters which clinicians should pay more attention to.To reduce its incidence,we should avoid abusing of antibiotics and hormones,and make the duration of catheterization as short as possible.

Objective:To explore the effect of instant blood glucose monitoring system (FGM) in perioperative blood glucose management in patients with hip fracture complicated with diabetes mellitus, and to provide guidance for perioperative blood glucose management.Methods:A total of 100 patients with hip fracture complicated with diabetes mellitus treated in the Department of Orthopaedics, Gongli Hospital, Pudong New Area, Shanghai from July 2018 to July 2020 were selected as subjects.The patients were divided into experimental group and control group by random digits table method with 50 cases in each group. The patients in both groups adopted the mode of multidisciplinary cooperation.The experimental group was used to monitor blood glucose based on FGM, and traditional blood glucose monitoring was used in the control group. The waiting time before operation, the pain caused by blood glucose acupuncture, the satisfaction of patients and medical staff, the blood glucose level at different time points and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:The waiting time before operation, the proportion of patients with moderate and severe pain after acupuncture and the incidence of hyperglycemia in the experimental group were (2.58 ± 1.30) d, 2% (1/50) and 30% (15/50), respectively, the control group were (3.67 ± 1.59) d, 22% (11/50) and 50% (25/50), respectively. The differences were statistically significant( t value was -2.087, χ2 values were 9.470, 4.170, P<0.05). The satisfaction of patients and medical staff in the experimental group were (46.43 ± 1.87), (46.58 ± 2.10) points, respectively, the control group were (40.67 ± 3.24), (43.84 ± 2.92) points, respectively.The differences were statistically significant( t values were 8.441, 8.087, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose and pre-bedtime blood glucose between the two groups( P>0.05). Conclusions:The application of FGM can realize the continuous blood glucose monitoring and management of patients,making the blood glucose reach the standard more quickly and smoothly, meanwhile it may effectively shorten the waiting time before operation and reduce the acupuncture pain of blood glucose monitoring and recognize patients with concealed abnormal blood glucose. The application can improve the satisfaction of patients and medical staff, and promote the rapid recovery of patients as well.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of nephrogenic adenoma. Methods Eleven patients were diagnosed as nephrogenic adenoma including 5 men and 6 women, aged 37-78 years (56 on average). The pathological findings in all cases of nephrogenic adenoma were presented with a review of the literature. Results Eleven cases of nephrogenic adenomas were evaluated, 2 cases were in ureter and 9 cases were in the bladder. Eight of the 9 bladder cases underwent TUR-BT surgery in continuous epidural anesthesia, 1 case underwent partial cystectomy with general anesthesia. A right ureteroscopy and left ureterolithotomy were performed respectively in continuous epidural anesthesia for the 2 cases in ureter. The final diagnosis was based on histopathological findings. For all of cases, 8 cases were diagnosed as nephrogenic adenomas, 2 cases as atypical nephrogenic adenoma and 1 case as nephrogenic adenoma with malignant transformation. The microscopic appearance of nephrogenic adenoma demonstrated that morphology closely resembled aberrant tubules of the kidney. In addition, atypical nephrogenic adenomas appeared as the presence of cytologic atypia, including nuclear enlargement, nuclear hyperchromasia and prominent nucleoli. The morphologic changes of nephrogenic adenomas with malignant transformation were that tumor cells retained the basic structural characteristics of typical nephrogenic adenomas, and the similar morphological cells lost adhesion ability among cells and presented diffuse solid growth in the surrounding area.Intravesical perfusion was further performed for treating the patients with atypical nephrogenic adenomas or nephrogenic adenomas with malignant transformation. The mean patient follow up was 46 months (range, 24- 104 months), and there was only 1 case of recurrence. Conclusions Nephrogenic adenoma is an uncommon benign lesion of the urinary tract. The symptoms and cystoscopic manifestations are not unique. We reported one patient of nephrogenic adenomas with malignant transformation and provided some evidence for malignant alteration in morphology and invasive behavior. All patients underwent local excision of the lesions. Intravesical perfusion was further performed for treating the patients of atypical nephrogenic adenomas or nephrogenic adenomas with malignant transformation. Whether it is nephrogenic adenoma or atypical nephrogenic adenoma, long-term follow-up after treatment is necessary.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of bronchial blocker outside the endotracheal tube for one-lung ventilation (OLV) in pediatric patients. Methods Thirty-eight American Society of Anesthe-siologists physical status ⅠorⅡ patients of both sexes, aged 4-8 yr, weighing 14. 0-28. 6 kg, scheduled for elective thoracic surgery under general anesthesia, were enrolled in this study. The size of tracheal tube was selected according to the endotracheal diameter at the level of clavicle and sternum on chest X-ray. Af-ter anesthesia induction, the distal end of the bronchial blocker was bent toward the target bronchus with a videolaryngoscope and then inserted until resistance was felt, and the preselected tracheal tube was inserted with a videolaryngoscope at a depth of (age∕2+12) cm. The position of the bronchial blocker was adjusted using a bronchofiberscope so that the upper edge of the blue cuff was 0. 5-1. 0 cm below the carina. The heart rate, mean arterial pressure, SpO2and airway pressure were recorded, arterial blood gas analysis was performed, and PaCO2and PaO2were recorded immediately before OLV (T1), at 30 min after OLV (T2) and at the end of OLV (T3). The intubation time, success rate of intubation at first attempt, displacement of bronchial blocker and occurrence of postoperative laryngeal pain and hoarseness were recorded. The pul-monary collapse was evaluated according to the standard described by Campos.Results Compared with the baseline at T1, PaO2was significantly decreased and airway pressure was increased at T2,3(P<0. 05), and no significant change was found in heart rate, mean arterial pressure, PaCO2or SpO2at T2,3( P>0. 05). The average intubation time was (185±38) s. The success rate of intubation at first attempt, rate of bronchial blocker displacement, excellent and good rates of pulmonary collapse and incidence of laryngeal pain and hoarseness were 95%, 16%, 100% and 11%, respectively. Conclusion Bronchial blocker outside the endotracheal tube can be effectively used for OLV in pediatric patients.
