Objective To develop a novel automatic water system for ventilator humidifier.Methods By hanging the infusion apparatus high,sustained water was filled by driving force of gravity.Liquid level in the thong of the infusion apparatus was detected by the sensor,and the closing and opening of the closing clip was controlled by solenoid valve.Results The closing clip opened when the liquid level inside the ventilator humidifier fell below the lowest setting value and purified water in the infusion bottle automatically flowed to the humidifier.When the liquid level reached the highest setting level,the closing clip was automatically closed.Conclusions The developed automatic water system for ventilator humidifier is effective,convenient,inexpensive,and realized a sustained,relatively steady and a small amount of water process.Meanwhile,humidifier water is stable,heating is uniform,and gas temperature is relatively constant,which can be applied in clinical use.

Objective To elucidate the clinical characteristics and coronary angiographic findings of patients underwent PCI before and after drug-eluting stents(DES).Methods DESIRE(Drug-Eluting Stent Impact on revascularization) was a retrospective registry of patients who received revascularization therapy during July,2001 through June,2002(non-DES era) and July,2003 through February,2004(DES era).In this analysis,we used the DISIRE data to examine the clinical and angiographic features of patients who received PCI in the different era.Results Among 3763 patients in the registry,2180 patients were analyzed(763 were in the non-DES era and 1417 were in the DES era).In the DES era,more diseased vessels(1.31?0.54 vs 1.39?0.61,P

Vitrectomy with inert gas or silicone oil tamponade is an effective surgical treatment of complicated retinal detachment.Maintaining the passive position after the surgery related to the success of the operation.If there is no suitable head-resting table,patients will have a lot of symptoms due to long time sitting with head bowed.In this paper,we developed a special head-resting table for patients of sitting position with head bowed after vitrectomy.It can adjust the head position more accurately,increase patient comfort,ensure the maintenance of the correct body position for a long time,and effectively reduce the various symptoms of the prone position,improve the success rate of surgery.
