Objective To observe the clinical characteristics and prognosis in children with high take -off coronary artery.Methods The clinical characteristics,laboratory examinations and prognosis were retrospectively ana-lyzed in 49 children with high take -off coronary artery who had been admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from April 2009 to December 201 2.Results Among 49 medical records of children with high take -off coronary artery,34 cases were male and 1 5 cases were female,with a mean age of (9.28 ±4.42)years old,and the youngest patient was 1 3 months old,and the oldest patient was 1 7 years and 2 months old.The 64 -section multidetector CT angiography of all patients showed one or both coronary arteries originated from 1 .0 cm higher than the junction area of sinus and aorta,including 38 high take -off of the left coronary artery,7 high take -off of the right coronary artery and 4 high take -off of both coronary arteries.The chief complaints of the patients included chest pain (22 cases,44.90%),chest tightness(1 3 cases,26.53%),declining of exercise tolerance(7 cases,1 4.29%),fatigue (5 cases,1 0.20%),palpitation(3 cases,6.21 %),syncope(1 case,2.04%).Electrocardiogram(ECG)of those pa-tients showed ST -T changes,atrioventricular block,sinus tachycardia,pathological Q -wave,proiosystole and bundle branch block.Ultrasonic cardiogram(UCG)indicated 1 4 patients with the enlarged left ventricle,including 2 patients with ejection fraction lower than 60%.After 1 0 days hospitalization,the anesis of chest pain and chest tightness were significantly different statistically(P <0.05),but there was no significant difference in ECG and UCG.Thirty -nine out of 49 children were followed for 1 year.After 3 months,6 patients with ST -T problem showed normal ST -T segment. After 6 months,1 0 patients with ST -T problem showed normal ST -T segment.After 1 year,1 7 patients with ST -T problem showed normal ST -T segment.Conclusions High take -off coronary artery is a rare malformation of the coronary artery,which can cause myocardial ischemic,leading to multiple clinical manifestations and may result in ECG changes and the left ventricle enlargement.High take -off coronary artery can be confused with myocarditis and myocar-dial lesion clinically.Patients receiving systemic treatment may have their symptoms released,but ECG and UCG may not relieve in a short term.Patients with high take -off coronary artery need long -term observation.

Objective To study the curative effect of prostaglandin E1(PGE1)on maintaining Sa(O2) and life span in the neonates with complete transposition of the large arteries(TGA).Methods Eleven of 19 neonates complete TGA received continuous PGE1 with the dosage of 5-20 ng/(kg?min),while the other 8 cases were set as control.The body temperature,Sa(O2),heart rate and blood pressure of both groups were recorded during the trial.Results The average Sa(O2) in trial group was (82.3?3.56)%,which had significant difference compared with the control group(t=8.232 P=0.001).The life span in trial group was much longer than control group.The body temperature,heart rate and blood pressure of trial group had no significant fluctuations.Conclusion PGE1 has an compkete effect on maintaining the ope-ning of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in TGA patients,which can improve the Sa(O2) and prolong the life span.

Objective:To study the compatibility and stability of coenzyme A for injection, adenosine disodium triphosphate and inosine injection. Methods:By simulating the clinical medication, the three drugs and 5% glucose injection were mixed together. The contents and relative substances of coenzyme A, adenosine disodium triphosphate and inosine were measured by HPLC. The changes in appearance, pH and insoluble particles were observed or tested at ambient temperature. Results:The mixed solution showed no signifi-cant changes in appearance, pH, number of insoluble particles, contents and relative substances of coenzyme A, adenosine disodium triphosphate and inosine in 4 h, while the mixed solution became turbid and the pH, number of insoluble particles and contents of the three drugs showed significant changes after 24-h storage. Conclusion:The mixed solution of coenzyme A for injection, adenosine dis-odium triphosphate and inosine injection in 5% glucose injection should be used up in 4 h at ambient temperature.

BACKGROUND:Accumulating studies have confirmed the excellent effectiveness of local infiltration analgesia, but the literature analysis is mainly limited to within 1 day after total knee arthroplasty or shorter period.
OBJECTIVE:To study the effectiveness of local infiltration analgesia (LIA) at low concentration after total knee arthroplasty, and to observe the analgesic effect at rest and movement states.
METHODS:Thirty patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were randomly al ocated to control group and LIA group, receiving oral non-steroidal anti nflammatory drug (celebrex) and low concentration of ropivacaine (0.1%) for epidural analgesia. Control group was injected with 0.9%saline 150 mL, while LIA group was injected with equal volume of solution include ropivacaine 300 mg, morphine 5 mg and epinephrine 10μg. The rest pain and motion pain of patients in two groups were evaluated at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 hours after operation by using visual analogue scale. The incidence rate and degree of nausea, vomiting, numbness and muscle weakness of the legs were observed after operation. The incision healing was also recorded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Visual analogue scale pain scores in the LIA group were significantly lower than the control group at 6, 12, 24 and 36 hours at rest (P<0.05), at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 hours on movement (P<0.05). At 6 and 12 hours, there was no difference in the rest and motion pains in the LIA groups (P>0.05). No patient appeared drowsiness, nausea, and vomiting in both groups. Two patients in each group complained of slight numbness in legs. No case influenced function exercise because of muscle weakness. Al the wounds healed and there were no incision infections in two groups. Combined with oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and low concentration of ropivacaine for epidural analgesia, the local infiltration analgesia technique in total knee arthroplasty is effective in early post-operative pain management, and produces no analgesia related adverse reactions.
