By analyzing the crisis of survival in 2 hospitals, the authors argue that reform of the hospital property right system may be a way out. However, in the process of the reform, hospitals may face some problems. One problem is how to ensure the steady transition and sustained development of a hospital if the whole of it is sold out to an enterprise run by the local people. Another problem is how to safeguard the status, salary and welfare of the staff. To ensure the success of the reform, the following measures need to be taken: ①strengthening leadership, seeking unity of thinking, and clarifying the guiding ideology; ②formulating rigorous and detailed plans so as to guarantee a steady transition; ③making proper arrangements for the placement of the staff after the change of the property right system so as to ensure the ideological stability of the staff.

Objective To study the effects of preconditioning treadmill exercise on excitatory amino vacid changes in rats after the cerebral infarction and the protective effects against cerebral isehemia brain injury. Methods Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats were used in this study. Twenty-five rats were subject to an operation to establish the animal model of middle cerebral artery occlusion and divided into a isehemia group, an 1-week ex- ercise group (trained in the 4th week) , a 2-week exercise group (trained in the 3rd and 4th weeks) and a 4- week exercise group (trained for 4 weeks) , while the remaining 5 rats were subject to sham operation, and served as the controls. After 4 weeks of experiment, all the the rats were fixed on stereotactie apparatus for the brain microdialysis of the striatum. Then the focal middle cerebral artery ischemia and reperfusion were made with thread oeclussion in rats and microdialysis technique was used to collect extraeellular fluid in each period of pre-ischemia, ischemia (40, 80 and 120 min), and reperfusion (40, 80, 120, 160, 200 and 240 min) to detect the changes of the excitatory amino acid. At the same time the infarction volume was also measured at 24 hours after ischemia-reperfusion of the brain. Results The difference between any two groups was significant with regard to the volume of cerebral infarction (P < 0.05). Two weeks and four weeks of the preconditioning treadmill exercise couled significantly reduce concentration of Glu excessively released due to the ischemia (P < 0.01). Conclusion At least two weeks of preconditioning treadmill exercise can inhibit the excessive release of the important excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter glutamate, to some extent, in the process of the subse- quent ischemic brain injury and during reperfusion, which might be one of the protective mechanisms of move- ment against the early isehemie brain injury.

Objective To compare the EEG complexity between rats under awaking and differ-ent depth of anesthesia via analyzing sample entropy and fractal dimension.Methods Sixteen SD rats were intraperitoneally injected with urethane twice,first with 500 mg/kg and second with 800 mg/kg one hour later.The scalp EEG was collected in stage of awaking (W),light anesthesia (LA)and heavy anesthesia (HA).The sample entropy (SampEn)and fractal dimension (FD)were computed by MATLAB.The characteristic values were denoised by linear dynamic system method during the whole process.Results The value of SampEn and FD gradually dropped from awaking to heavy anes-thesia.The SampEn and FD in W was significantly higher than the value in LA or in HA (P <0.05). The SampEn and FD in HA was significantly lower than that in LA (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion The SampEn and FD of EEG could be used to monitor the depth of anesthesia.

Objective:
To explore the application value of pulmonary ultrasound for the treatment of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome in children with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO).
Methods:
Seven children with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who were treated with ECMO in the PICU ward of Hunan Children Hospital from August 2018 to March 2019 underwent pulmonary ultrasound before treated with ECMO, after each bronchoscopy and lavage, before ECMO withdrawal, and within 24 hours after ECMO withdrawal. Performance of pulmonary ultrasound and clinical data were retrospectively reviewed.
Results:
Seven patients treated with ECMO for 11.5(3-27)days, and 1 patient underwent ECMO transport. Six (86.7%) patients were successfully weaned from ECMO, and 1 (14.2%) patient failed to exit ECMO successfully. Four(57.1%) patients were discharged from hospital, and 3(42.8%) patients eventually died. In various diagnostic signs of pulmonary ultrasound were detected in 7 patients, including pulmonary edema (7 cases), lung consolidation (5 cases), followed by pleural effusion (4 cases), atelectasis (3 cases) and pneumothorax (3 cases). Pulmonary ultrasound showed that the lungs were re-expanded and suggested that the child could attempt to evacuate the ECMO.
Conclusions
Pulmonary ultrasound can comprehensively evaluate the various lung lesions in children with ECMO treatment, and can dynamically monitor the process of lung recruitment in real time, providing a reference for guiding the evacuation of ECMO.
