1.Implementation of Preventive Maintenance of Ultrasonic Instrument in Field Hospital
Chinese Medical Equipment Journal 2004;0(09):-
The preventive maintenance of medical instruments is very important in field hospital. Because of effective preventive maintenance,the ultrasonic instrument ran normally and efficiently in field hospital. The method of preventive maintenance are introduced,including quakeproof,power supply,hot & moist resistance,dustproof,antijam,probe maintenance,etc. These maintenance methods can provide reference for diversified military affairs.

Objective To investigate the clinical features,early diagnosis and individualized treatment of renal hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia induced by adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods Thirty-nine CHB or hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related cirrhosis patients of renal hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia induced by ADV were consecutively collected.The clinical features were analyzed and treatment outcome was followed up.Results The mean age of the 39 patients was 54 (27-71) years old.There were 26 male and 13 female patients,and 19 patients with cirrhosis.The mean ADV treatment duration was 69 (range 18-116) months,and 31 patients were treated for 36-96 months.The mean serum phosphate was 0.68 (0.42-0.79) mmol/L.Twenty-six cases developed renal hypophosphatemic osteomaolacia,of which 14 had bone pain and 19 had abnormally elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP).Three patients had increased serum creatinine and 24 patients had decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).After individualized treatment,patients gained normal serum phosphate in mean of 2.0 (range 0.5-6.0) months,and had bone pain remission in the mean of 0.8 (range 0.2-1.0) month and bone pain disappeared in the mean of 1.5 (range 0.5-5.0) months.Function indices of liver and kidney were improved gradually,and the bone mineral density examination improved slowly.Conclusions CHB and HBV-related cirrhosis patients treated with longterm ADV could develop renal hypophosphatemia and hypophosphatemic osteomalacia,which is partially reversible.Monitoring serum phosphate,creatinine and cystatin C is necessary during long-term ADV therapy.After confirmed diagnosis,withdrawal or dosage reduction of ADV,and switch to telbivudine or entecavir should be considered.Meanwhile,serum phosphate and HBV DNA level should be monitored.

Background::Given that seizures may be triggered by vaccination, this study aimed to evaluate the risk and correlative factors of seizures in patients with epilepsy (PWE) after being vaccinated against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).Methods::This study retrospectively enrolled PWE who were vaccinated against COVID-19 in the epilepsy centers of 11 hospitals in China. We divided the PWE into two groups as follows: (1) patients who developed seizures within 14 days of vaccination were assigned to the SAV (with seizures after vaccination) group; (2) patients who were seizure-free within 14 days of vaccination were assigned to the SFAV (seizure-free after vaccination) group. To identify potential risk factors for seizure reccurence, the binary logistic regression analysis was performed. Besides, 67 PWE who had not been vaccinated were also included for elucidating the effects of vaccination on seizures recurrence, and binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine whether vaccination would affect the recurrence rate of PWE who had drug reduction or withdrawal.Results::The study included a total of 407 patients; of which, 48 (11.8%) developed seizures within 14 days after vaccination (SAV group), whereas 359 (88.2%) remained seizure-free (SFAV group). The binary logistic regression analysis revealed that duration of seizure freedom ( P < 0.001) and withdrawal from anti-seizure medications (ASMs) or reduction in their dosage during the peri-vaccination period were significantly associated with the recurrence of seizures (odds ratio= 7.384, 95% confidence interval = 1.732–31.488, P = 0.007). In addition, 32 of 33 patients (97.0%) who were seizure-free for more than three months before vaccination and had a normal electroencephalogram before vaccination did not have any seizures within 14 days of vaccination. A total of 92 (22.6%) patients experienced non-epileptic adverse reactions after vaccination. Binary logistic regression analysis results showed that vaccine did not significantly affect the recurrence rate of PWE who had the behavior of ASMs dose reduction or withdrawal ( P = 0.143). Conclusions::PWE need protection from the COVID-19 vaccine. PWE who are seizure-free for >3 months before vaccination should be vaccinated. Whether the remaining PWE should be vaccinated depends on the local prevalence of COVID-19. Finally, PWE should avoid discontinuing ASMs or reducing their dosage during the peri-vaccination period.
