Objective To observe the effect of clindamycin for preventive infection in arthroplasty prophylac-tic.Methods 108 knee replacement patients were injected by 600mg intravenous clindamycin preoperation and con-tinue to use 1 -2 days after operation.The average postoperative hospitalization,postoperative outcome,body tempera-ture and blood after WBC changes of CRP and ESR in the fall of superficial infection trend,the average postoperative day,take out stitches after operation and the number of cases,postoperative deep infection early after infection (2 weeks)and delayed infection cases (within one year)were observed in order to evaluate the efficacy of preopera-tive antibiotics.Results 2 cases had superficial infection due to wound dehiscence (two times after suture recover-y),there was no complications of surgical wound in the other cases.In all cases,after operation,body temperature and blood WBC became to the normal level in seventh days,postoperative patients'CRP,ESR monitoring were significantly higher than those before operation (CRP:F =105.32,P =0.045;ESR:F =118.47,P =0.039),but on the 5 day after operation they were started to decline,CRP in the 21 postoperative day gradually returned to normal,and ESR gradually returned to normal after 6 months of operation.Preoperative HSS score was significantly lower than the post-operative score[(46.8 ±9.7)points vs.(91.7 ±3.4)points,t =6.38,P <0.05].Conclusion Clindamycin plays a definite role in prevention of infection,especially in the beta lactam antibiotic allergy cases,it can be preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis instead of cephalosporins.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of skin bridge preopening window drainage in enhanced recovery of mixed hemorrhoids surgically treated with external dissection and internal ligation.Methods A total of 620 patients with mixed hemorrhoids surgically treated with external dissection and internal ligation were retrospectively analyzed from March 1,2021-February 28,2022.Patients were divided into the observation group(n=304)and the control group(n=316)according to the single and even numbers randomly generated at the time of admission.In the observation group,on the basis of conventional operation and drug treatment in the control group,most of them chose to implement preopening window drainage of the skin bridge according to the intraoperative evaluation of the anal skin bridge according to the unified evaluation criteria.Symptom-sign scoring scale used to evaluate the anal edema and pain after the operation.To compare and analyze differences in anal edema,anal pain and the postoperative hospital stay between the observation group and the control.Results The average daily edema scores of the observation group and the control group were 0.56 and 1.2 points,respectively.The average daily edema score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,with the statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The average daily pain scores of the observation group and the control group were 0.6 and 1.201+0.289 points,respectively.The average daily pain score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,with the statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The average hospitalization days of the observation group and the control group were 8 days and 10 days,respectively.The average length of stay in the observation group was less than that in the control group,with the statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Conclusion Skin bridge preopening window drainage can effectively relieve the degree of anal edema and pain in patients with mixed hemorrhoids surgically treated with external dissection and internal ligation,improve clinical efficacy,shorten the postoperative hospital stay.It has practical value and clinical significance for enhanced recovery.

Objective To explore the value of plaque-to-aorta CT value ratio(standardized CT value)in differentiating coronary lipid and fibrous plaques,and to preliminarily analyze the stability of the cutoff.Methods Patients who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA)and intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)within 1 week were included.The plaque CT value was obtained by measuring the all,four and two short-axis planes,respectively.The CT value of the ascending aorta was measured and standardized(plaque-to-aorta CT value ratio).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves of the standardized and the traditional CT values were drawn.Results A total of 60 patients with 74 plaques were included,35 lipid and 39 fibrous plaques were diagnosed by IVUS.The aorta CT value was significantly correlated with the plaque(r=0.420,P<0.01);the cutoffs for the CT value of all,four and two plaque slices were 55 HU,48 HU and 52 HU,respectively,and all there of the cutoffs of standardized CT value were 0.149;the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value(PPV)and negative predictive value(NPV)of four-slice traditional and standardized CT values to differentiate lipid and fibrous plaques were 69%,87%,83%,76%and 91%,82%,82%,91%,respectively.Conclusion Compared with traditional CT value,the standardized CT value can greatly improve the sensitivity and NPV in differentiating coronary lipid and fibrous plaques,while maintaining modest to high specificity and PPV.Furthermore,the cutoff is stable.
