Objective To summarize the clinical features,diagnostic and treatment experience of severe hand,foot and mouth disease(HFMD) cases receiving mechanical ventilation from Jan 1 to Sep 6,2009 in our hospital and provide reference for reducing the occurrence of neurogenic pulmonary edema(NPE) and mortality. Methods 147 severe HFMD who received mechanical ventilation were analyzed by a retrospective investigation. Results 85.0% children were less than 3 years old and 100% patients had a fever. The mechanical ventilation occurred within 1 to 4 days after fever (3.06 ± 1. 02) d. Neurological complications presented as bad spirit,easy surprised, involuntary movement of the extremities and lethargy. Respiratory system complication presented as polypnea, hypepnea and irregular rhythm. Circulatory system complication presented as heart rate increase or decrease, hypertension or hypotension, piebald skin and low limb temperature.Some of the children had high white blood cell counting,glucose and lactic acid of the blood. The EV71-PCR positive rate was 34. 7% for throat swabs,and 42. 2% for anal swabs. Chest X-ray presented as increased broncho vascular shadows, exudation or nonapparent abnormality. Only three children were dead, fatality rate was 2. 0%. Conclusion The HFMD cases in this outbreak are relatively more serious,and change rapidly. It's difficult to treat as soon as NPE appeared,and it has high fatality rate. Early recognition of critical patients,timely giving mechanical ventilation,and the comprehensive treatment can reduce NPE incidence and the mortality.

Objective To discuss the prevention and treatment of the complications of modified radical mastectomy with nipple-areola complex (NAC) sparing. Methods The clinical data of 124 breast cancer patients who had a NAC sparing modified radical mastectomy from January 1998 to December 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. The causes of complications were evaluated and the proposal of prevention and treatment was put forward. Results Of the 124 patients, 18 had nipple necrosis (14.52%), 9 had skin infections and necrosis (7.26%), 7 subcutaneous hydrops(5.65%), 5 upper extremity lymphedema (4.03%), 3 chest muscle contracture with ipsilateral upper limb dyskinesia (2.42%), and 2 operative residual cavity hemorrhage(1.61%). Conclusion All the post-operative complications listed above could be possibly avoided by more careful operation procedure.

Objective:To understand the status of sedation and analgesia treatment and management in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU) in Shandong Province, and to provide the basis for the improvement of sedation and analgesia treatment plan.Methods:This study was a multi-center retrospective study.The PICUs of 6 tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province participated in this study.The data of 1 340 children admitted to these 6 PICUs from January 2016 to December 2018 were collected.The age, gender, the pediatric risk of mortality score Ⅲ at 24 hours after admission, whether they received mechanical ventilation, whether they received sedation and(or) analgesia, whether they were monitored sedation and(or) analgesia, and in-hospital mortality were analyzed.The children were divided into the simple sedation group( n=798), the sedation + analgesia group( n=120) and the non-sedation analgesia group( n=422) according to whether they received sedation and(or) analgesia.The diseases, proportion of mechanical ventilation, incidence of hypotension, average length of stay in PICU and in-hospital mortality were compared among the three groups. Results:The median age of the 1 340 children was (13.3±6.4) months, including 786 males(58.7%). Sedation therapy had been carried out in 6 PICUs, of which 5 PICUs had routine sedation assessment; 4 PICUs had carried out analgesic therapy, of which only 2 had routine pain assessment.A total of 918 children(68.5%)received sedation and(or) analgesia, midazolam was the most commonly used sedative drug, followed by dexmedetomidine, and 526 children(57.3%)were monitored for sedation assessment, the most commonly used assessment method was the Richmond agitation sedation score.One hundred and twenty(9.0%)cases received sedation combined with analgesia, fentanyl was the most commonly used analgesic, and 38 children(31.7%) underwent routine pain assessment.There was no significant difference in age and sex among the three groups.The proportion of surgical diseases and patients received mechanical ventilation(100.0%, 120/120) were the highest in the sedation + analgesia group.The proportion of mechanically ventilated patients was the lowest in the non-sedation analgesia group(11.4%, 48/422). The mean duration of mechanical ventilation in the sedation + analgesia group was slightly shorter than that in the simple sedation group( P>0.05). The incidence of hypotension was highest in the sedation + analgesia group, and lowest in the non-sedation analgesia group[21.7%(26/120) vs.2.1%(9/422), P<0.01]. There was no significant difference in in-hospital mortality and mean PICU stay among three groups. Conclusion:Benzodiazepines are still the main sedative drugs used in PICUs in Shandong Province.In recent years, the usage of dexmedetomidine has gradually increased, but the proportion of analgesic use is very low.At present, analgesic and sedative therapy is mainly used for children after surgery and receiving mechanical ventilation.Although analgesic and sedative therapy does not increase the in-hospital mortality and average length of stay in PICU, it increases the incidence of hypotension.The sedative and analgesic treatment and assessment in the PICU of Shandong Province are still not standardized, mainly reflected in infrequently analgesic treatment and the assessment of sedation and pain, which need to be further improved.

Objective:
To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of acute paraquat(PQ)poisoning in children in southwest Shandong, and the risk factors for pulmonary interstitial fibrosis.
Methods:
This retrospective study was performed on the clinical data of children with acute PQ poisoning admitted from January 2013 to December 2017 in 12 hospitals in southwest Shandong.All participants were divided into pulmonary interstitial fibrosis group and no pulmonary interstitial fibrosis group on the basis of the chest CT 14 days after poisoning.The epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis were analyzed.
Results:
During the study period, a total of 307 children with acute PQ poisoning were admitted to 12 hospitals, of which 61 (19.87%) were suffering from acute PQ poisoning.Forty-nine cases with complete clinical data were analyzed, including 26 male and 23 female patients poisoned by oral.The age distribution ranged from 8 months to 14 years.Poisoning mainly occured from July to September of each year.The mortality of acute PQ poisoning was 8.2%(4/49), and the incidence of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis in survival patients was 44.4%(20/45).
