Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine 2014;34(10):1202-1206
OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of xuebijing Injection (XI) on perioperative coagulation and inflammatory reaction in senile patients receiving total hip arthroplasty (THA).
METHODSTotally eighty patients receiving THA at Luoyang Orthopedics Hospital, 65 to 85 years old, were randomly assigned to the control group (40 cases) and the treatment group (40 cases). All patients received routine perioperative therapies. Those in the treatment group received XI (adding 50 mL XI in 100 mL normal saline, 30 min each time). XI was continually injected after THA, twice daily for 3 successive days. Blood samples were harvested on the morning of the 2nd admission day (TO), immediately after operation (T1), on the morning of the 3rd day after operation (T3), and on the morning of the 5th day after operation (T4) to detect prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), levels of FIB and D-dimer (D-D), changes of white blood cell (WBC), neutrophils (N), C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and IL-6. Complications of surgery were compared between the two groups.
RESULTSThere was no statistical difference in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and blood transfusion between the two groups (P >0.05). Compared with TO in the same group, WBC, N, CRP, ESR, IL-6, PT, TT, and D-D all increased in the control group at T1-T4 (P < 0.05); APTT increased at T1-T2 (P <0.05); FIB increased at T1-T3 (P <0.05). WBC, N, IL-6, PT, and D-D all increased in the treatment group at T1-T3 (P <0.05); CRP and ESR increased at T1-T4 (P < 0.05); TT increased at T1-T2 (P <0.05); APTT and FIB increased at T1 (P <0.05). Compared with the control group at the same time period, WBC, N, CRP, and IL-6 all decreased in the treatment group at T1-T4 (P <0.05), ESR decreased at T3-T4 (P <0.05); PT and TT decreased at T1-T3 (P <0.05); FIB and D-D decreased at T2-T4 (P<0.05). The occurrence of each complication was significantly lower in the treatment groups than in the control group.
CONCLUSIONXI could improve the perioperative high coagulation state of senile THA patients, inhibit inflammatory reactions, and reduce complications.

Objective To evaluate the influence of the preparation-to-colonoscopy interval, diet control and excise on bowel preparation quality in the split-dose method for colonoscopy. Methods Observational study, prospective cohort study design, three bowel preparation methods were set up in different departments for A, B, C 3 groups, each group of 110 cases. In group A, no movement was required. Diet preparation was 3 days earlier than the examination, and take all the medicine in once at 20:00 the day before examination, group B, 1 L medicine required for 20 minutes movement, diet preparation was 1 day earlier than the examination, and take the medicine in twice the day before examination at 14:00, group C, keep walking during taking the medicine, diet preparation was 1 day earlier than the examination, and took all the medicine in once the day before examination at 20:00. The Boston Bowel Preparation Scale was used to evaluate the bowel cleansing quality. A questionnaire was administered to investigate patients′tolerability and safety. Results A total of 330 consecutive patients undergoing colonoscopy. There was no significance among three groups on bowel cleansing quality(P>0.05). However, the number ofexcellently cleanedwas higher in group B than the others, in group A,B and C respectively 30, 46, 29 cases, the difference was significant (χ2=7.627, P=0.022). Group B was superior to the others in terms of comfort, sleep quality, hunger, and discomfort, the difference was significant (χ2=19.425, 6.687 and 8.130, P < 0.01 or 0.05). Group B was also superior to the others in terms of the compliance of completing the preparation under the doctors′advice (χ2=14.756, P=0.001) and exercises (χ2=11.848, P=0.001). Conclusions The new method shortened the time of the diet control and set the exercises time to 20 minutes. So it was found to have a higher level of safety, bowel preparation quality and tolerability.
