Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of parent-controlled analgesia for postoperative pain management in pediatric patients. Methods Five hundred and seven ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ pediatric patients aged 10 months to 8 yr, weighting 8.5-34.0 kg, undergoing lower limb operations performed under general anesthesia combined with caudal block were assigned into 2 age groups: group PCIA-P ( < 6 yr, n = 308) and group PCIA ( ≥6yr, n = 199). Anesthesia was induced with intravenous midazolam 1 mg/kg, ketamine 2 mg/kg and propofol 2 mg/kg. Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) was introduced or the patients were intubated. After induction, caudal block was performed with 0.25% bupivacaine 2.5 mg/kg with adrenaline 1:400 000. The patients received PCA with morphine after operation. The PCA pump was controlled by parent in group PCIA-P and by patient in group PCIA. The PCA regimen included a background infusion of morphine at a rate of 15μg~(-1)·kg~(-1)·h, a bolus of 15μg/kg and a 10 min lockout interval. The vital signs, pain score, sedation score, number of attempts, morphine dosage and side effects were recorded. Results The two groups were comparable with respect to the rate of satisfactory analgesia, level of sedation, number of attempts, morphine dosage and side effects. The rates of satisfactory analgesia were 72.7% and 80.2% in group PCIA-P vs 77.9% and 78.9% in group PCIA at 24 and 48 h after operation respectively ( P > 0.05) . Conclusion Parent-controlled analgesia could be used safely and effectively in children after orthopedic surgery.

Based on binocular disparity, three-dimensional (3D) display technology makes the right and left eyes see different images in a certain way, which generates a stereo image after the processing of the brain's visual cortex.Due to its high-definition stereoscopic surgical field of vision and accurate spatial positioning ability, 3D display technology has been widely used in surgery.Ophthalmic microsurgery is performed with the help of microscope because of the complex intraocular operation and small operating space, especially minimally invasive vitreoretinal surgery, which is the most difficult surgery with the longest learning curve in ophthalmology.The 3D display viewing system can improve surgical accuracy, reduce retinal phototoxicity, relieve the pressure on the neck and back of the surgeon as well as promote communication and cooperation between medical staff and so on.At present, the major 3D display systems applied in ophthalmology include the NGENUITY 3D Visualization System and TrueVision 3D Visualization System, both of which require wearing 3D glasses.The naked eye 3D display system is the main direction of future development.The combination of 3D display system and ophthalmic surgical robot system provides a new idea for the development of remote ophthalmic surgery.At the same time, broader application of 3D display system requires continuous improvement.In this article, the research and application of 3D display system in anterior segment surgery and vitreoretinal surgery were reviewed.

Objective To evaluate the pharmacodynamics of oral chloral hydrate sedation for echocardiography in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease (CHD).Methods Two hundred ASA physical status Ⅱ-Ⅳ pediatric patients with CHD, aged 5-620 days,scheduled for elective echocardiography,were enrolled in the study.The dose of oral chloral hydrate was set at 50 mg/kg in the first pediatric patient.The oral dosage was determined by up-and-down sequential experiment.Each time the oral dose increased/decreased by 10％ in the next pediatric patient.The pharmacodynamics was analyzed based on the dose-response model to determine the 50％ effective dose (ED50),95％ effective dose (ED95) and 95％ confidence interval (95％ CI) of chloral hydrate for sedation.The covariates (age,gender,time period of administration,fasting time,sleeping at 2 h before sedation,premature and cyanotic CHD) were introduced into the dose-response model,and the effect of each covariate on the pharmacodynamics of chloral hydrate sedation was evaluated.Results The ED50 of chloral hydrate for sedation during echocardiography was 42.2 mg/kg (95 ％ CI 40.2-44.2 mg/kg), ED95 was 67.4 mg/kg (95％ CI 53.7-81.1 mg/kg) in the pediatric patients with CHD.Each covariate provided no effect on the pharmacodynamics of chloral hydrate sedation (P ＞ 0.05).When fasting time and premature were introduced into the dose-response model,95％ CI of the slope of dose-response curve included 0.When age which was stratified was introduced into the dose-response model,it was difficult to fit or the data seriously deviated from the clinical data.Conclusion The ED50 and ED95 of chloral hydrate for sedation during echocardiography were 42.2 mg/kg (95％ CI 40.2-44.2 mg/kg) and 67.4 mg/kg (95％CI 53.7-81.1 mg/kg),respectively,in the pediatric patients with CHD.Gender,time period of administration,sleeping before sedation and cyanotic CHD do not affect the pharmacodynamics of oral chloral hydrate sedation,while the effect of age,fasting time and premature needs further determination.

Objective To explore the effect of transabdominal posterior rectopexy with resection of the partial rectosigmoid colon on adult rectal prolapse.Methods During the 2006 to 2011,transabdominal posterior rectopexy with resection of the partial rectosigmoid colon was performed on 6 selected adult patients with complete rectal prolapse.Results All patients were cured,the median length of hospital stay was 13.7 days.Followed up for 3-61 months,there was no recurrent case.Conclusions The operation offers a safe and effective alternative to other more complex procedures for the treatment of adult rectal prolapse.The procedure can not only treat the rectosigmoid disease,but also improve the rectosigmoid disease,improve the function of bowel and reduce the recurrence rate.

Objective To evaluate the blood-saving effect of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) with 6％ hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 (HES 130/0.4) in preschool children.Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ patients,aged 3-6 yr,weighing 11.5-22.5 kg,with body height of 78-120 cm,scheduled for orthopedic or general surgeries,were divided into 2 groups by drawing lots:group AHH (n =20) and group control (n =20).6％HES 130/0.4 10 ml/kg was infused over 30 min at a rate of 0.3 ml·kg-1 · min-1 through the internal jugular vein before surgery in group AHH.The fluid balance,blood loss,urine output and blood transfusion during operation were recorded.The blood routine,liver and kidney function and coagulation function (prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),fibrinogen (Fib)) were measured before AHH (T0) and at 0,4 and 24 h after AHH (T1-3).Hypokalemia,hypocalcemia and prolongation of PT and APTT during surgery,and pulmonary edema,heart failure and abnormal bleeding from the site in the wound during the perioperative period were recorded.Results The two groups were comparable with regard to the volume of multiple electrolyte solution consumed,blood loss,parameters of liver and kidney function,platelet count and incidences of hypokalemia and hypocalcemia (P ＞ 0.05).The urine output was significantly increased,Hct at T1 and Fib at T1,2 were significantly decreased,PT and APTT were prolonged,and the percentage of patients without allogeneic blood transfusion and incidences of prolongation of PT and APTT were significantly increased in group AHH as compared with group C (P ＜ 0.05).No pulmonary edema,heart failure and abnormal bleeding were found during the perioperative period.Conclusion AHH with 6％ HES 130/0.4 10 ml/kg provides better blood-saving effect in preschool children,has little effect on the internal environment,but prolongs the coagulation time and exerts effect on coagulation function to some extent.

Objective To evaluate the value of ultrasonographic measurement of the antral crosssectional area (CSA) in assessing the preoperative gastric content volume in preschool pediatric patients.Methods Fifty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ pediatric patients of both sexes,aged ＜7 yr,undergoing elective non-gastrointestinal surgery,were fasted according to the preoperative fasting guidelines recommended by American Society of Anesthesiologists.Sedation was performed with intravenously injected midazolam or with intravenously injected midazolam and propofol after admission to the operating room.The antral CSA in the supine and right lateral decubitus positions was measured using bedside ultrasonography and free tracing method.A gastric tube was inserted after gastric sonography to collect the gastric fluid,and the total volume of the gastric fluid was considered to be the gastric content volume.Results Six pediatric patients were excluded due to the unsatisfactory ultrasound image,and 44 pediatric patients were included.Gastric content volume and gastric content volume per kilogram of body weight were positively correlated with the antral CSA in the right lateral decubitus position,and the Spearman correlation coefficients were 0.48 (P＜0.01) and 0.37 (P＜0.05),respectively.There was no correlation between gastric content volume and gastric content volume per kilogram of body weight and the antral CSA in the supine position (P＞0.05).Conclusion Ultrasonographic measurement of the antral CSA in the right lateral decubitus position can be used to assess the preoperative gastric content volume in preschool pediatric patients.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of ultrasonographic measurement of the subglottic airway diameter in selecting the cuffed endotracheal tube (ETT) size for the pediatric patients with congenital heart disease.Methods Sixty pediatric patients of both sexes with congenital heart disease,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ-Ⅳ,aged 1 month-7 yr,undergoing elective open heart surgery,were included in this study.The subglottic airway diameter was measured by bedside ultrasonography after induction of anesthesia.The outer diameter of the cuffed ETT was determined according to the subglottic airway diameter.The air leak test was performed after intubation to determine whether or not the ETT size selected based on ultrasonography was appropriate.When the difference between the inner diameter of the finally selected ETT and the result calculated by the Motoyama formula was less than 0.2 mm,the ETT size selected based on the Motoyama formula was considered appropriate.The agreement and correlation between the subglottic airway diameter measured by age-based formula and ultrasonography and the outer diameter of the actually selected ETT were analyzed using Bland-Altman plot and Passing-Bablok regression analysis.Results The accurate rate of the ETT selected based on the ultrasonic measurement and Motoyama formula were 80％ and 55％,respectively,and there was significant difference (P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrasonographic measurement of the subglottic airway diameter produces higher accuracy than the classical Motoyama formula in selecting the cuffed ETT size for the pediatric patients with congenital heart disease.

Objective To investigate the molecular epidemiology of carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii from Zhejiang Province using multilocus sequence typing.Methods Three hundred and two imipenem or meropenem resistant A.baumannii isolates were collected from eleven tertiary hospitals of eleven different regions of Zhejiang Province in 2009 and 2010.Multilocus sequence typing was used for molecular typing.eBURST was used to analyze the results of multilocus sequence typing.PCR was used to detect the OXA-type carbapenemase genes.Results Seventeen sequence types (STs) were identified from three hundred and two A.baumannii isolates.eBURST analysis revealed eleven STs belonged to clonal complex 92 (CC92) and corresponded to European clone Ⅱ lineage.CC92 was the predominant carbapenem resistant A.baumannii clone of Zhejiang Province,which accounted for 94.4％ (285/302) of all isolates and distributed in all 11 hospitals.blaOXA-23 gene was identified in 97.4％ (294/302) of all isolates.Conclusions Carbapenem resistant A.baumannii CC92 were clonal disseminated among multiple hospitals of Zhejiang Province.blaOXA-23 was the most popular carbapenemase gene in carbapenem resistant A.baumannii.(Chin J Lab Med,2013,36:303-307)

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for digestive tract mucosal lesions,and risk factor of complications.Methods The data of 154 consecutive patients who underwent ESD for superficial digestive tract mucosal lesions were analyzed prospectively for therapeutic effect and rate of complications.Risk factors for bleeding was analyzed.Results The enbloc resection rate in 145 completed ESD procedures was 100.0％.Histologically,complete resection rate was 99.3％.ESD was not completed in 9 patients due to bleeding ( n =5) and perforation ( n =4).Acute massive bleeding occurred in 6 patients (6/154,3.9％),mild bleeding in 5 (3.2％),delayed bleeding in l (0.6％ ),perforation in 4 (2.6％ ) and post-ESD stenosis in 1 (0.6％ ).All complications were cured.The post-ESD ulcer-healing was achieved in 100％ at 8 weeks after treatment.During follow-up of 10.6months( ranged from 8 to 18 months),no residual or local recurrence was found.Statistic analysis showed independent risk factors for bleeding in ESD were lesion location (cardiac fundus),and lesion size.Conclusion ESD is an effective and safe procedure in treatment of digestive tract mucosal lesions.The complications of ESD are preventable and curable.Strictly controlling operation indications,individualized treatment and the proficient operation skills of physicians are the keys to success.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of arterial PVA perfusion embolization in treating mid and advanced pulmonary carcinoma. Methods Thirty-one patients with pulmonary carcinoma in the mid or late stage diagnosed pathologically underwent selective angiographic studies of the bronchial arteries and intercostal arteries to provide information of the hypervascular feeding vessels, and then performed the perfusion with 5-FU? THP? DDP; followed by PVA grain embolization under fluoroscopic control. Results Abnormal tumor feeding vessels of pulmonary carcinoma were found deriving from bromehial arteries in 21 cases, and from intercostal arteries in 10. After arterial infusion of chemotherapy combined with embolization of PVA,alleviation of clinical symptoms was observed in all 31 cases(100%)without severe complication. The total effectiveness(CR plus PR) reached 80.6%(25/31). Conclusions Arterial embolization of PVA is safe, effective with less complication for treatment of mid or advanced pulmonary carcinoma.
