The study was conducted between 1/2004 and 6/2005 in civilian-military health care commitees at 61provinces and cities and in civilian-military health care facilities. Aims of this study is to analyse the basic issues of civilian-military health care combination in preventive health and response to epidemics and disasters. The study also produced some recommendations on the model of mobile civillian - military medical team in prevention dangerous epidermics and bioterrorisms

The study included 71 pregnant women underwent cesarean section in the National Hospital of Gynecology and Obstetrics between January and May 2004. Results: average duration of a cesarean section is 31 minutes and 1 second, the mean time of transversal laparotomy is 28 minutes and 15 seconds. In cases of transversall incision, the duration is 37 minutes and 9 seconds. The mean time required for newborn extraction is 5 minutes and 10 seconds. In cases of transversal incision, this duration is 4 minutes and 36 seconds. If the incision was made in white line below navel, the duration is 6 minutes and 29 seconds

The study was carried out on 34 patients (6 males and 28 females) aged more than 16 years old who suffered from primary dacryocystitis and underwent endoscopic procedure with silicone intubation. All patients were followed up for clinical symptoms, had Jone’s test, and underwent endoscopy after 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Results: success rate was 94.44% after 6 months, and 93.75% after 12 months. There were not statistically significant differences to other authors. This procedure can be applied broadly in Vietnam

Nosocomial pneumonia is a leading type of respiratory infection among hospital-acquired infections. Despite the introductions of new antibiotics, nosocomial pneumonia is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Among 80 patients aged more than 60 years old with nosocomial pneumonia, 17 patients (21.3%) received initial adequate therapies, 63 patients (78.7%) received initial inadequate therapies. Nosocomial pneumonia is often difficult to treat because of multi-resistant bacteria. Initially adequate antibiotic regimens are major prognostic factor for patients with nosocomial pneumonia. 3rd generation cephalosporines and fluoroquinolones aren’t effective. Imipenem, Timentin, Tazoncin, Cepfepim plus Amikacin and Vancomicin (if suspected bacterium is S. aureus) can be initial effective antibiotics

the study included 12 cases of hydropericardium treated at Cardiovascular Surgery Department, Cho Ray Hospital between 2004 and July 2005. Most of them were metastasis of lung cancer, followed is carina ganglion cancer and gastric adenoma. In term of treatment, there was one patient underwent thoracotomy for wide pericardiotomy. The remaining patients were treated by pericardiocenteses. These patients had poor prognosis and low survival rates

Study on 88 cases of cesarean section at Obstetric Department, Bach Mai Hospital between January and October, 1992. There was no complication in procedures of single-layer uterine suture using catgut thread made in Vietnam. This procedure has more advantages than 2-layer uterine suture, including such shorten operation time, better preservation of the lower uterine

Study on 175 patients underwent Roux-en-Y hepatico-jejunostomy on the Y ansa with subcutaneous intestinal extremities because of intrahepatic and extrahepatic stones. There was no postoperative death. Short-term outcomes were good in 64.57%, moderate in 27.2%, and poor in 8.00%. Long-term outcomes were good in 71.95%, moderate in 20.12%, and poor in 7.92%. Treatment for main stone by drain lavage was good in 25.22%, moderate in 28.00% and bad in 45.94%. Treatment for residual stone under image intensifier through intestinal head was good in 31.13%, moderate in 68.17% and bad in 0%. These findings showed that this technique is good in treating postoperative residual and recurrent stones

Study on 9 patients with myocardial infarction (MI) treated with thrombolysis therapy at Hue Central Hospital between January and June, 2004. Results showed that in all patients, angina disappeared within 60 minutes of using thrombolysis. Post-thrombolysis coronary angiography showed that MI-related coronary stenosis was opened in all patients

Investigation of the equipment, the human resource at 60 Imaging departments; and professional skills of 216 imaging technicians in the 28 Northern provinces. Results: the equipment of Imaging departments is modern and relatively sufficient. Amount of technicians are not enough (71% of departments of 3rd class hospitals have only one technician). Professional levels of the technicians are limited. The rates of technicians who don’t work at educated specialty are still high (56% in 3rd class hospitals and 27% in 2nd class hospitals). The rates of technicians who have needs to regularly study are high: 71% of technicians working at educated specialty. Base on these results, the researchers predicted an education scale annually for Imaging technicians in the period of 2005 to 2010: 117 regular students, 60 junior college students and 40 short term supplemental students from 2008

Studying the result of multi-approach combinations: surgery, radioactive iodine (131-I) and hormones for treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer at Bach Mai hospital. The result showed that: surgery was basic method to remove total thyroid gland, nodes, and metastasis. Radioactive iodine 131-I was supplement therapy to destroy thyroid remnant tissue after surgery. Hormone therapy using T3 or T4 make the patients became in euthroidism status and inhibit TSH secretion. The recurrence and metastases can be detected by serum Tg value determination and 131-I systemic scintiography. Therefore the patient must be followed -up every 6 months in the first two years, and then once a year or every two years
