Objective To determine the advantages of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) by establishing pneumoperitoneum under direct vision. Methods A 1cm incision was made just below the umbilicus; lifting and cutting out of the peritoneum at the line alba abdominis with direct vision; then a 10mm trocar was inserted into the pneumoperitoneum cavity.Results There were 107 patients underwent LC.Of them, 93 patients suffered from chronic cholecystitis with gallstone, 6 from acute cholecystitis with gallstone, and 8 from cystopolyps. Among them, 16 patients had previous abdominal operations. Two patients with atrophic cholecystitis converted to open cholecystectomy(OC) owing to the unclear bile duct anatomy. The average operation time was 45min. Postoperative complications included pulmonary infection in 3 patients, bile leakage in 1( due to the titanic clip falling off),but no bile duct injury or other severe complications occurred;and no mortality in this series. Conclusions Establishing pneumoperitoneum under direct vision has following advantages:rapid and safe,and favorable to avoid the severe trocar-related complications.

Objective:To survey the first-aid ability of general practitioners (GPs) and the emergency service capacity of primary health institutions in southern Zhejiang province.Methods:The questionnaire of first-aid ability of GPs in primary care institution was developed on the basis of the Delphi method during August to October 2018. The questionnaire was employed in a survey on the first-aid ability among 480 GPs from 169 community health service centers of three regions in southern Zhejiang province. The survey covered basic information and first-aid skills and emergency response ability of GPs, and the emergency facilities of primary health institutions.Results:A total of 480 questionnaires were distributed and 447 were retrieved with an recovery rate of 93. 1%(447/480). Among the 447 responders, 55.9% (250/447) were males, 70.9% (317/447) had bachelor′s degree or above, and 60.2% (269/447) had middle and senior professional titles. There were 99.6% (445/447), 86.6% (387/447), 76.1% (340/447) and 69.8% (312/447) responders considered cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR), electrical defibrillation, respiratory balloon and endotracheal intubation as important first-aid skills, and corresponding mastery rates were 84.3% (377/447), 32.0% (143/447), 55.2% (247/447) and 12.9% (58/447), respectively. The 92.4% (413/447) responders thought that the rescue ability of common emergency and critical illness was the most important, while only 32.4% (145/447) responders mastered it. Least responders [41.4%(185/447)] thought that ability of using bedside ultrasound was important, and the corresponding mastery rate was only 3.8%(17/447); 77.4%(346/447) of general practitioners believed that CPR machines was important, while the available rate of CPR machines in primary health care institutions was only 16.0%(27/169).Conclusion:The GPs in southern Zhejiang province have a good grasp of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills, but have a low mastery rate of first-aid skills such as electrical defibrillation, tracheal intubation, and emergency rescue capabilities, which are quite different from their perceived importance evaluation.

Objective To investigate the significance of diameter measurement in descending aorta and ascending aorta as predictors of Stanford B type aortic dissection.Methods A total of 156 patients with chest pain and 100 healthy volunteers as control were enrolled in this study.The descending aorta diameter (dDA) and ascending aorta diameter (dAA) were measured by computed tomography (CT) and CT angiography(CTA),and the ratio of dDA to dAA or to rDA(radius of descending aorta) was calculated.Various metrics were analyzed for their specificity and sensitivity as screening measurements for Stanford B type aortic dissection.Results Fifty-six cases were diagnosed with Stanford B type aortic dissection by CTA with significant increases in dDA and rDA compared with control group(P＜0.05).When dDA was ≥ 30 mm,the sensitivity was 94.6％ and specificity was 82.0％ for Stanford B type aortic dissection,and when the rDA was ≥ 0.8,sensitivity and specificity were 96.4％ and 91.0％,respectively.Conclusions The dDA ≥ 30 mm and rDA ≥ 0.8 may be used to predict Stanford B type aortic dissection in suspected patients with chest pain,and the latter is more accurate than the former.

Objective To survey the current status of professional value among health workers in grass-roots medical institutions of Wenzhou city and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods A survey on professional value was conducted from October to December 2017 among health workers from 14 primary medical institutions in 4 urban districts of Wenzhou City selected by stratified random sampling method.The self-designed questionnaires were used for the survey.A total of 350 questionnaires were distributed and 331 were returned,of which 302 were valid.The status and influencing factors of professional value were analyzed.Results The overall score of professional value was (96.66 ± 14.94).The univariate analysis showed that the professional value scores were associated with educational level (F=3.851),income(F=2.660),professional title(F=8.030),position(F=11.658) and specialty (F=4.667) of the health workers(all P＜0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that the gender(male:OR=0.53,95％ CI:-1.077--0.192,P=0.005),educational level (high school and below:OR=3.06,95％ CI:0.007-2.233,P=0.049),income (2 000-4 000 Yuan:OR=0.07,95％ CI:-4.783-0.627,P=0.011),professional title (no title:OR=0.27,95％CI:-2.397--0.232,P=0.017;Junior title:OR=0.31,95％CI:-2.197--0.153),P--0.024;intermediate title:OR=0.23,95％ CI:-2.533--0.366,P--0.009),position (doctor:OR=0.13,95％ CI:-3.235--0.815,P=0.001;nurse:OR=0.20,95％ CI:-2.883--0.368,P=0.011;technician:OR=0.15,95％ CI:-3.076--0.723,P=0.002)were influencing factors of professional value(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The professional values among health workers in Wenzhou grass-roots medical institutions are relatively low.The male gender,low educational level,low income,low professional title or no title and positions are influencing factors of professional value.
