OBJECTIVE To understand the distribution of pathogen in very-low-birth-weight or preterm infants septicemia in early-onset and late-onset and drug sensitivity.METHODS Bacterial isolates from inpatients of very-low-birth-weight or preterm infants septicemia over a period of 3 years were retrospectively analyzed,and classified as when septicemia was happened.RESULTS The positive rate of isolates was 43.2% in 970 samples of very-low-birth-weight or preterm infants septicemia.Most of the sepsis detected by blood culture was late-onset neonatal sepsis(58.6%).Pathogen of late-onset neonatal sepsis mostly was Gram-positive cocci,Staphylococcus were found to be the most common isolates(80.5%).In early-onset sepsis group,the isolates rates of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria were mostly in proportion,there were 52.4% and 47.6%,respeitively.The resistance rate of late-onset sepsis group was higher than that of early-onset one.CONCLUSIONS The key of curing infants septicemia is that we should master the distribution of pathogen of very-low-birth-weight or preterm infants septicemia in early-onset and late-onset and drug sensitivity.Antimicrobial therapy should be initiated under the guidance of anti-microbial sensitivity test,in order to avoid abuse of antimicrobial.

Objective To study the effects of preoperative autologous blood donation on involution of uterus of puerpera under cesarean section after delivery. Methods Non-autologous blood donation was applied as control group. Height of uterus declining, pain of uterine contraction, amount of lochia, ending time of lochia and involution of uterus under ul-trasound B after delivery were compared between both groups. Results Heigh of uterus, score of uterine contraction pain, mean ending time of lochia, the sum of three dimensions of uterus in the third day and the seventh day and inci-dence of endometrial cavity fluid in the preoperative autologous blood donation group were lower than those in the non-autologous blood donation group. Mean good rate of involution of uterus in 42 days after delivery was higher than that in the non-autologous blood donation group. All the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Pre-operative autologous blood donation is able to promote the involution of uterus after delivery, alleviate postpartum con-traction pain and significantly shorten lochia time, which is worthy of promotion.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of bedside ultrasound in monitoring gastric residual volume and predicting feeding intolerance during enteral nutrition in critically ill patients in intensive care unit.Methods:The data of critically ill patients admitted to emergency intensive care unit of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from April 2018 to September 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The following patients were finally included in this study: (1) abdominal computed tomography during the stay of emergency intensive care unit was performed due to the requirement of disease evaluation and management; (2) bedside ultrasound was performed to measure the gastric antrum cross-sectional area at 30 min prior to or after abdominal computed tomography. The outline of stomach wall in the imaging of abdominal computed tomography was traced with the help of VOLUME-Work Flow medical imaging software to calculate the value of gastric residual volume. The relationship between gastric antrum cross-sectional area under semi-sitting, horizontal and right-lateral positions and gastric residual volume was evaluated by Pearson correlation analysis. The difference of gastric antrum cross-sectional area between those critically ill patients with or without feeding intolerance was compared by independent-sample t test. The predictive value of gastric antrum cross-sectional area under different body positions on feeding intolerance during enteral nutrition was analyzed by ROC curve. Results:Totally, forty-two patients were enrolled and analyzed in this study, in which the mean age was (53±13) y, mean body mass index was (21.5±2.8) kg/m 2 and mean acute physiology and chronic health evaluation was 17.0±6.9. The value of gastric residual volume was (314.5±126.6) mL, and the values of gastric antrum cross-sectional area under semi-sitting, horizontal and right-lateral positions were (7.11±4.13) cm 2, (4.22±2.66) cm 2, (8.36±4.58) cm 2, respectively. The correlation analysis indicated that gastric residual volume was positively associated with gastric antrum cross-sectional area under semi-sitting, horizontal and right-lateral positions ( r=0.543, 0.604 and 0.618, respectively; all P<0.001). During enteral nutrition, 15 patients experienced feeding intolerance while 27 patients hadn’t feeding intolerance, in which the gastric antrum cross-sectional areas under semi-sitting, horizontal and right-lateral positions were significantly increased in those patients with feeding intolerance than those patients without feeding intolerance [semi-sitting: (8.53±4.07) cm 2vs (4.60±2.76) cm 2; horizontal position: (5.15±2.75) cm 2vs (2.61±1.32) cm 2; right-lateral position: (10.32±4.06) cm 2vs (4.95±3.20) cm 2, all P<0.005] . ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curves of gastric antrum cross-sectional area under semi-sitting, horizontal and right-lateral positions for predicting feeding intolerance during enteral nutrition were 0.815, 0.833 and 0.849, respectively; when its values≥3.917 cm 2, 3.395 cm 2 and 4.402 cm 2 were used as the cut-off points, the sensitivities were 92.0%, 69.6% and 92.3%, and the corresponding specificities were 69.2%, 92.3% and 71.4%, respectively. Conclusions:Bedside gastric ultrasound could accurately evaluate the status of gastric residual volume in critically ill patients, and effectively predict their occurrence of feeding intolerance during enteral nutrition.

Objective:To explore the current status of surgery for portal hypertension to grasp current status and future development of surgery in China.Methods:This study is jointly sponsored by China Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Specialist Alliance & Portal Hypertension Alliance in China (CHESS).Comprehensive surveying is conducted for basic domestic situations of surgery for portal hypertension, including case load, surgical approaches, management of postoperative complications, primary effects, existing confusion and obstacles, liver transplantation(LT), laparoscopic procedures and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS), etc.Results:A total of 8 512 cases of portal hypertension surgery are performed at 378 hospitals nationwide in 2021.Splenectomy plus devascularization predominated(53.0%)and laparoscopy accounted for 76.1%.Primary goal is preventing rebleeding(67.0%) and 72.8% of hospitals used preventive anticoagulants after conventional surgery.And 80.7% of teams believe that the formation of postoperative portal vein thrombosis is a surgical dilemma and 65.3% of hospitals practiced both laparoscopy and TIPS.The major reasons for patients with portal hypertension not receiving LT are due to a lack of qualifications for LT(69.3%)and economic factors(69.0%).Conclusions:Surgery is an integral part of management of portal hypertension in China.However, it is imperative to further standardize the grasp of surgical indications, the handling of surgical operation and the management of postoperative complications.Moreover, prospective, multi-center randomized controlled clinical studies should be performed.
