Objective:To compare the clinical effect of hollow screw tension band internal fixation and Kirschner wire tension band internal fixation for patellar fracture, so as to provide reference for clinical operation.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 82 patients with transverse patellar fracture admitted to the Department of Orthopedics of Linxi Hospital of Kailuan general hospital and the Department of orthopedics of Tangshan Central Hospital from May 2016 to October 2018.According to different operation methods, they were divided into Kirschner wire group (44 cases) and cannulated screw group (38 cases). The Kirschner wire group was treated with Kirschner wire tension band internal fixation, and the hollow screw group was treated with cannulated screw tension band internal fixation. The operation conditions, postoperative complications and postoperative knee function recovery of the two groups were compared.Results:The operation time of hollow screw group was significantly longer than that of Kirschner wire group((68.25±10.81) min vs.(59.72±12.32) min, t=3.31, P<0.05). Fracture healing time of hollow screw group was significantly shorter than that of Kirschner wire group((3.12±0.40) month vs.(3.68±0.45) month, t=5.91, P<0.05). B?stmanscores of the two groups increased significantly with time( Fintra-group=74.69, P<0.05). The B?stmanscore of cannulated screw group was significantly higher than that of Kirschner wire group ( Finteraction=4.87, P<0.05). The B?stmanscore of hollow screw group was significantly higher than that of Kirschner wire group( Finter-group=7.52, P<0.05). VAS scores in both decreased significantly with time( Finter-group=86.24, P<0.05). The decreasing of visual analogue scale (VAS) score in hollow screw group was significantly higher than that in Kirschner wire group( Finteraction=6.62, P<0.05). The VAS score in hollow screw group was significantly lower than that in Kirschner wire group ( Finter-group=7.74, P<0.05). The postoperative complications were 20.5% (9/44) in Kirschner wire group and 5.3% (2/38) in hollow screw group.The incidence of adverse reactions in hollow screw group was lower than that in Kirschner wire group (χ 2=4.05, P<0.05). The excellent and good rates of Kirschner wire group and cannulated screw group were 86.4% (38/44) and 94.7% (36/38), respectively, with no significant difference (χ 2=0.51, P>0.05). Conclusion:The results show that the two methods have the same effect on patella fracture, but the hollow screw tension band internal fixation has less trauma and less complications, which is conducive to the recovery of knee joint function.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the development present situation of the department of critical care medicine in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (hereinafter referred to as Inner Mongolia), in order to promote the standardized and homogeneous development of critical care medicine in Inner Mongolia, and also provide a reference for discipline construction and resource allocation. METHODS: A survey study was conducted in comprehensive intensive care unit (ICU) of tertiary and secondary hospitals in Inner Mongolia by online questionnaire survey and telephone data verification. The questionnaire was based on the Guidelines for the Construction and Management of Intensive Care Units (Trial) (hereinafter referred to as the Guidelines) issued by the National Health Commission in 2009 and the development trend of the discipline. The questionnaire covered six aspects, including hospital basic information, ICU basic information, personnel allocation, medical quality management, technical skill and equipment configuration. The questionnaire was distributed in September 2022, and it was filled out by the discipline leaders or department heads of each hospital. RESULTS: As of October 24, 2022, a total of 101 questionnaires had been distributed, 85 questionnaires had been recovered, and the questionnaire recovery rate had reached 84.16%, of which 71 valid questionnaires had been collected in a total of 71 comprehensive ICU. (1) There were noticeable regional differences in the distribution of comprehensive ICU in Inner Mongolia, with a relatively weak distribution in the east and west, and the overall distribution was uneven. The development of critical care medicine in Inner Mongolia was still lacking. (2) Basic information of hospitals: the population and economy restricted the development of ICU. The average number of comprehensive ICU beds in the western region was only half of that in the central region (beds: 39.0 vs. 86.0), and the average number of ICU beds in the eastern region was in the middle (83.6 beds), which was relatively uneven. (3) Basic information of ICU: among the 71 comprehensive ICU surveyed, there were 44 tertiary hospitals and 27 secondary hospitals. The ratio of ICU beds to total beds in tertiary hospitals was significantly lower than that in secondary hospitals [(1.59±0.81)% vs. (2.11±1.07)%, P < 0.05], which were significantly lower than the requirements of the Guidelines of 2%-8%. The utilization rate of ICU in tertiary and secondary hospitals [(63.63±22.40)% and (44.65±20.66)%, P < 0.01] were both lower than the bed utilization rate required by the Guidelines (75% should be appropriate). (4) Staffing of ICU: there were 376 doctors and 1 117 nurses in tertiary hospitals, while secondary hospitals had 122 doctors and 331 nurses. There were significant differences in the composition ratio of the titles of doctors, the degree of doctors, and the titles of nurses between tertiary and secondary hospitals (all P < 0.05). Most of the doctors in tertiary hospitals had intermediate titles (attending physicians accounted for 41.49%), while most of the doctors in secondary hospitals had junior titles (resident physicians accounted for 43.44%). The education level of doctors in tertiary hospitals was generally higher than that in secondary hospitals (doctors: 2.13% vs. 0, masters: 37.24% vs. 8.20%). The proportion of nurses in tertiary hospitals was significantly lower than that in secondary hospitals (17.01% vs. 24.47%). The ratio of ICU doctors/ICU beds [(0.64±0.27)%, (0.59±0.34)%] and ICU nurses/ICU beds [(1.76±0.56)%, (1.51±0.48)%] in tertiary and secondary hospitals all failed to meet the requirements above 0.8 : 1 and 3 : 1 of the Guidelines. (5) Medical quality management of ICU: compared with secondary hospitals, the proportion of one-to-one drug-resistant bacteria care in tertiary hospitals (65.91% vs. 40.74%), multimodal analgesia and sedation (90.91% vs. 66.67%), and personal digital assistant (PDA) barcode scanning (43.18% vs. 14.81%) were significantly higher (all P < 0.05). (6) Technical skills of ICU: in terms of technical skills, the proportion of bronchoscopy, blood purification, jejunal nutrition tube placement and bedside ultrasound projects carried out in tertiary hospitals were higher than those in secondary hospitals (84.09% vs. 48.15%, 88.64% vs. 48.15%, 61.36% vs. 55.56%, 88.64% vs. 70.37%, all P < 0.05). Among them, the placement of jejunal nutrition tube, bedside ultrasound and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation were mainly completed independently in tertiary hospitals, while those in secondary hospitals tended to be completed in cooperation. (7) Equipment configuration of ICU: in terms of basic equipment, the ratio of the total number of ventilators/ICU beds in tertiary and secondary hospitals [0.77% (0.53%, 1.07%), 0.88% (0.63%, 1.38%)], and the ratio of injection pump/ICU beds [1.70% (1.00%, 2.56%), 1.25% (0.75%, 1.88%)] didn't meet the requirements of the Guidelines. The equipment ratio was insuffcient, which means that the basic needs of development had not been met yet. CONCLUSIONS The development of comprehensive ICU in Inner Mongolia has tended to mature, but there is still a certain gap in the development scale, personnel ratio and instruments and equipment compared with the Guidelines. Moreover, the comprehensive ICU appears the characteristics of relatively weak eastern and western regions, and the overall distribution is uneven. Therefore, it is necessary to increase efforts to invest in the construction of the department of critical care medicine.
