Objective To improve the hospital's capability for controlling the quality and expenses of disease categories so as to reduce unnecessary consumption of medical resources while ensuring medical quality. Methods All inpatient cases in the hospital were classified according to disease categories,reference criteria for the quality and expenses of all disease categories were formulated,feedback and analysis systems and assessment systems for the quality of disease categories were improved,and evaluation of the care quality and work performance by departments or physicians was conducted.Results The departments' awareness of the quality and expenses of disease categories was enhanced,the rate of good-quality cases rose from 80.01% to 86.22%,and the proportion of drug expenses dropped to 40.32%.Conclusion Classified management of cases of disease categories plays a key role in improving a hospital's managerial level,enhancing its medical efficiency,reducing its medical costs,and standardizing its medical behavior.

As a micro-wound and target-aimed technology without special limitation, Electric Pulses have been widely researched in tumor treatment and the effects have been demonstrated by a series of experiments, yet the mechanism has not been explained clearly. In this experiment, energy controllable steep pulse (ECSP) was used to treat nude mice bearing human ovarian tumor, and the result was compared with that of the control group. The expression of an important coagulant factor-tissue factor (TF) was analyzed, as TF was also a tumor indicator of invasion and metastasis, the result may indicate the relationship among ECSP, thrombosis and tumor invasion. In this study, to shed light on the mechanism of tumor treatment in electrical fields, nude mice bearing ovarian tumors were randomly divided into the treated group and the untreated group. We treated the former group and took out the tumor instantly. The thrombosis and necrosis of ovarian tumor were observed under microscope. The expression of TF was analyzed by SP immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. Lower level of TF expression was noticed in the tumor tissue treated by ECSP, and more apparent thrombosis was also seen in this group. The results make it clear that ECSP can accelerate thrombosis and consume coagulant factors such as TF, and that low expression of TF in tumor tissue can cut out the signal paths of tumor invasion. So it is suggested that ECSP may restrain tumor invasion and metastasis by modulating thrombosis.

Objective To analyze the injury causes and types in the inpatients first discharged from the Department of Orthopedic Trauma,Nanfang Hospital after treatment of injury from 2013 to 2017.Methods An epidemiological survey was conducted on the inpatients first discharged from the Department of Orthopedic Trauma,Nanfang Hospital after injury treatment from January 2013 to December 2017.Their data were extracted by information system IBM SPSS 23.0 for analyses of their gender,regional origin,distribution of injury causes and types.Results From 2013 to 2017,a total of 6,736 inpatients were first discharged after treatment of injury.The total ratio of male to female was 2.71∶ 1.Although the male to female ratios were significantly different between different years (x2 =10.755,P =0.029),the proportions of males were all over 70％.Although the distribution of regional origins of the patients was significantly different between different years (x2 =86.193,P ＜ 0.001),the patients mostly came from the regions outside the administrative district where Nanfang Hospital was located,especially those from the provinces other than Guangdong.The major external cause of injury was falling,followed by exposure to inanimate mechanical violence.There were differences in external cause of injury between different age groups.Wrist and hand injury,knee and lower leg injury,shoulder and upper arm injury were the top three sorts of injury for hospitalization.Wrist and hand injury was mainly found in the age group from 20 to 29 years old,knee and lower leg injury mostly in the age group from 30 to 39 years old,and shoulder and upper arm injury mainly in the age group younger than 10 years old,hip and thigh injury mostly in the age group older than 70 years old.Conclusions Falling was the major external cause of injury;injury predominated in males;the majority of the patients came from the regions outside the administrative district where Nanfang Hospital was located;wrist and hand injury were more common in young people while hip and thigh injury more common in the elderly.
