The disc herniation occurs in 1/3 population in the world but 3% of this population had clinical symptoms that need a treatment. 87 patients received the method of percutaneous laser disc decompression has show that the successful rate was 80%. There had no major complications. There was only case suffering from the small abscess at the back of spine

There are several advantages of percutaneous laser. Candidates for this technique are patients who have CT or MRI imaging findings showed that the spinal disc(s) were displaced but remained to be intact, with correlative pain symptoms and received conservative treatment for at least three months without success. The patients have only to suffered regional anesthesia, have not to hospitalize, free from scar, have not any spinal problem, time of immobilization and activity limitation was shorter

Investigating the role of CRP levels in the blood of major burned patients in predicting bacterium and treatment results. The plasma CRP levels of 54 patients (18 female, 36 males), average age (20.44 ± 2.17) with burns between 20 and 90 (47.27±2.21) TBSA (total body surface area), full thickness burns between 1 and 75 (15.58±2.3) TBSA were determined for 4-7 days (CRP1) and 10-14 days (CRP2) after thermal trauma by CRP test kit (Human Co-Germany). Result: CRP1 concentration of patients with sepsis were much higher than without sepsis (p<0.05). Decreased level of CRP was observed in patient who had good response to therapy. The mortality rate increased in case of high CRP levels. Results suggested that there was risk of infection in patients with high plasma CRP levels. CRP measurement appeared to be the most useful method to monitor patient’s response to therapy

Study was carried out on 22 advanced chronic renal failure, regular dialysis inpatients with hypertension (21 males, 1 female, ages from 25 - 76) treated in Central Military Hospital No.108. All of patients were treated hypertension with combined regimen or one drug followed convention, periodic dialysis 2-3 times per week, 4 hours per 1 time. The study’s time was 7 days. The results: almost of chronic renal failure patients had stable blood pressure, less daytime fluctuation in all of 7 days (with 462 measurements). Very less measurements (8/462) had systole blood pressure in emergency level (≥180 mmHg), less measurements (25/462) had blood pressure, which was not achieved treatment aim due to systole blood pressure at grade 2 (≥160 mmHg). A good efficacy of treatment with hypertension medications achieved by combined treatment at 6 hours, 10 hours, 16 hours and 21 hours of taken times.

Study on 27 patients with thermal burn in upper extremities has shown that deep burn with severe edema changed hand into claw picture in the deep burn of whole hand (6,98%). The maximal edema occurs within 48 -72 hours after burn. The syndrome of hamper of extremities occurred in deep burn including perimeter of wrist. The deep injury in back of the hand (97,67%). Treatment of 3thgrade burn: clean the hand; everyday bandage distribution; self split of necrosis. Treatment of 4th grade burn: cut the necrosis as average linear method in day of 6,6+/- 1,3 of burn.

A study on some pilots and technicians at some airports from the center to the South showed that: during the studying days of May - June /1996, the temperature burden of hot microclimate environment according to the Yaglow general index rose to 32%, the tension of the temperature regulatory mechanism of the body expressed the raising of body temperature, increasing the pulse and excretion of sweats. Suitability to the hot climate of pilots and technitians through training themselves maintained the temperature balance at standard level.

Examination of soil samples in some military units revealed a high degree of parasitic infestation and bacterial contamination. The incidence of parasitic disease among the staff of these units was recorded as following: ascaridiasis 71.5%, trichiurasis 33.3% and ankylostomiasis 10.7%. Authors strongly urged the need to improve the existing latrine system of these military units.

From 1998 to 1999, 25 patients were operated to repair the secondary nasal deformity after initial congenital cleft lip and palate reconstruction. Age of patients ranged from 11 to 23, 6 males, 19 females, inwhich 11 patients have upper cleft lip alon and 14 patients have cleft lip with cleft palate. This is an adjunctive surgery for nasal deformity recontruction using cartilage interventions. Criteria of evaluation: good: the vestibular membrane disappeared, nasal ventilation is good. Moderate: the vestibular membrane is still, nasal ventilation is good. Poor: there was not improvement. Result: good result was achieved in 11 patients (44%), moderate in 8 patients (32%) and poor result in 24%

The neurology profession was established after the completed liberation of the North of Vietnam. The psychological and neurological department of Bach Mai hospital was established in the 2 nd December 1956, currently the psychological and neurological faculty of Hanoi medical University also was founded. Up to now, the neurology profession has been undergoing over 40 years of the development and has surpassing progressed both proffession level, facilities and the human resource

In 2002, 99.807 blood slides were taken and examined in Thanh Hoa province, of which 33.464 slides were taken from fever patients (33.52%). 196 positive cases were detected. 52 microscopic points were checked, of which 10 microscopic points were very good functioning (19.23%), 27 points were good (59.9%), 12 were average and 3 were not good (5.76%). The quality of slides taken by the commune and village health workers was not so good, the slides were too thick or too thin with blood. In some villages, the slides were taken massively in order to fulfill the target. Checking the quality of microscopy showed that the mistake rate of microscopy was 13.16% as compared with the total slides sent for rechecking. In some microscopic points, the mistake rate was high (the provincial hospital had the mistake of 6/19 positive slides)
