Pain after burns is a very common problem in children. Severe pain will not only hinder treatment, but also damage children's mental health if not handled in time. Therefore, pain management is very important in treating children with burns. As a safe, effective, and convenient non-drug therapy, music therapy has great advantages in relieving pain and is widely used in a variety of clinical fields. This paper focused on music therapy and its mechanism of pain relief, the current status of research on pain management of pediatric burns, the application and prospect of music therapy in pain management of pediatric burns, etc., to provide reference for clinical application.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic right posterior sectionectomy (LRPS) in the left side lying at 60° run-hug position.Methods:The clinical data of 12 cases underwent LRPS at the Department of Biliary and Pancreatic Surgery, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University from August 2022 to June 2023 were analyzed. There were 9 males and 3 females, ranging in age from 26 to 76 years old. To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the operation, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, the number and time of intraoperative hilar occlusion, postoperative drainage time, postoperative hospitalization time and postoperative complications were summarized.Results:Twelve operations were successfully completed under laparoscopy, and no patient was converted to laparotomy due to the difficulty in controlling intraoperative bleeding. 12 patients included 1 case of intrahepatic bile duct stones, 5 cases of primary liver cancer, 2 cases of hepatic hemangioma, 2 cases of focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver, 1 case of metastatic liver cancer, and 1 case of liver abscess. Operation time was (246.2±90.4) min, and the intraoperative blood loss was 125(22, 275) ml. The number of intraoperative hilar occlusion was 2.00(0.25, 2.75), and intraoperative hilar occlusion time was (27±22) min. Postoperative drainage time was (5.0±2.6) d, and the length of postoperative hospital stay was 6.0(4.3, 8.0) d. Intraoperative blood transfusion occurred in 1 patient, and postoperative abdominal effusion occurred in 1 patient. There was no postoperative death. All patients were recovered and discharged successfully.Conclusion:LRPS is safe and effective for the lesions in the right posterior hepatic region with the left side lying at 60° run-hug position.

Objective:To retrospect the blood transfusion status of patients with extensive burns in multiple centers and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. Clinical data of 455 patients with extensive burns who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the burn centers of 3 hospitals from January 2016 to June 2022 were collected, including 202 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, 179 patients from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, and 74 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. The following data were collected from patients during their hospitalization, including infusion of red blood cells, plasma, and platelets during hospitalization; age, gender, body mass index, combined underlying diseases, cause of injury, time of admission after injury, type of admission, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, combination of inhalation injury, combination of other trauma, and combination of pulmonary edema; the blood lactic acid, serum creatinine, total bilirubin, and albumin values within 24 h of admission; combination of bloodstream, wound, lung, and urinary tract infection, and combination of sepsis; the number of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin grafting surgery (hereinafter referred to as surgery) and total surgical blood loss volume; occurrence of hemoglobin<70 g/L, admission to intensive care unit (ICU), conduction of mechanical ventilation and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), length of hospital stay, and prognosis were recorded. In 602 surgeries of patients within 14 days after injury, data including area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting, duration of operation, and surgical blood loss volume per surgery, operation site, and use of tourniquet and wound graft were collected. Data were statistically analyzed with Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and Spearman correlation analysis. Combined with the results of single factor analysis and clinical significance, multiple linear regression analysis was performed to screen the independent influencing factors of red blood cell infusion volume and plasma infusion volume, as well as blood loss volume per surgery. Results:During the whole hospitalization period, 437 (96.0%) patients received blood transfusion therapy, including 435 (95.6%) patients, 410 (90.1%) patients, and 73 (16.0%) patients who received transfusion of plasma, red blood cells, and platelets, respectively. The patients were mainly male, aged 18 to 92 years. There were statistically significant differences in the plasma infusion volume among patients with different combination of underlying disease, combination of inhalation injury, combination of other trauma, combination of pulmonary edema, combination of bloodstream infection, combination of wound infection, combination of lung infection, combination of urinary tract infection, combination of sepsis, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, admission to ICU, conduction of mechanical ventilation, and conduction of CRRT (with Z values of -2.06, -4.67, -2.11, -6.13, -9.56, -4.93, -8.08, -4.78, -9.12, -6.55, -9.37, -11.46, and -7.17, respectively, P<0.05). The total burn area, full-thickness burn area, blood lactic acid value within 24 h of admission, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, albumin value within 24 h of admission, number of surgeries, and total surgical blood loss volume were correlated with the plasma infusion volume of patients (with r values of 0.39, 0.51, 0.14, 0.28, -0.13, 0.47, and 0.56, respectively, P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the red blood cell infusion volume among patients with different gender, combination of inhalation injury, combination of other trauma, combination of pulmonary edema, combination of bloodstream infection, combination of wound infection, combination of lung infection, combination of urinary tract infection, combination of sepsis, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, admission to ICU, conduction of mechanical ventilation, and conduction of CRRT (with Z values of -2.00, -4.34, -3.10, -4.22, -8.24, -7.66, -8.62, -4.75, -7.42, -9.36, -6.12, and -8.31, -6.64, respectively, P<0.05). The age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, blood lactic acid value within 24 h of admission, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, total bilirubin value within 24 h of admission, number of surgeries, and total surgical blood loss volume were correlated with the red blood cell infusion volume of patients (with r values of 0.12, 0.22, 0.49, 0.09, 0.18, 0.13, -0.15, 0.69, and 0.77, respectively, P<0.05). Combined underlying diseases, full-thickness burn area, combined pulmonary edema, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, combined sepsis, conduction of CRRT, number of surgeries, and total surgical blood loss volume were the independent influencing factors for plasma infusion volume during hospitalization in patients with extensive burns (with standardized regression coefficients of 0.09, 0.16, 0.12, 0.07, 0.11, 0.15, 0.31, and 0.26, respectively, P<0.05). Female, full-thickness burn area, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, combined sepsis, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, conduction of CRRT, and total surgical blood loss volume were the independent influencing factors for red blood cell infusion volume during hospitalization in patients with extensive burns (with standardized regression coefficients of 0.10, 0.12, 0.10, 0.11, 0.05, 0.19, and 0.54, respectively, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in blood loss volume per surgery of patients with different surgical site and wound graft (with Z values of -2.54 and -2.27, respectively, P<0.05). The area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting and duration of operation were correlated with the blood loss volume per surgery of patients (with r values of 0.40 and 0.21, respectively, P<0.05). The area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting, duration of operation, and active wound grafts were the independent influencing factors for blood loss volume per surgery of patients with extensive burns (with standardized regression coefficients of 0.41, 0.16, and 0.12, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions:The major factors influencing blood transfusion status in patients with extensive burns are female, combined underlying diseases, full-thickness burn area, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, combined pulmonary edema, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, combined sepsis, conduction of CRRT, number of surgery, and total surgical blood loss volume. In addition, the area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting, duration of operation, and active wound grafts indirectly affect the patient's blood transfusion status by affecting the blood loss volume per surgery.
