Objective:To access the feasibility and safety of application of flexible laryngeal mask air-way ( FLMA) in oral&maxillofacial day surgery. Methods:Retrospective study was conducted of 40 oral& maxillofacial day surgery patients (3 to 61 years of age) using FLMA under general anaesthesia in De-partment of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology. All the patients were with American Society of Anesthesiologists ( ASA ) physical status Ⅰ -Ⅱ, including 19 males and 21 females. The patients' vital signs were recorded at five different time points:baseline before anesthesia ( T0 ) , time right after the FLMA insertion ( T1 ) , time at incision ( T2 ) , 15 min after incision ( T3 ) and time at the end of the operation ( T4 ) . The first attempted FLMA insertion successful rate and the number of timed of changing to endotracheal intubation were recorded. During operation, frequencies of movement, hypoxia and obstruction of airway were noted and the operation time, anesthesia time, time from the end of the operation to extubation, movement and coughing following extubation and sore throat within 24 h were taken down. Operation-related complications of bleeding, hematoma and injury of local nerves were recorded within 24 h as well. Results:The operations of all the 40 patients were successfully done under general anaesthesia. The 36 ( 90%, 36/40 ) patients using FLMA successfully were under steady process, including 16 males and 20 females. The first attempted successful rate of FLMA insertion was 80% (32/40), and the second 50% (4/8). Three out of the 4 failed FLMA patients were changed to endotracheal intubation after the second attempt failed. The other patient was changed to endotracheal intubation before operation because of leak. The average operation time was (46. 58 ± 22. 57) min, the anesthesia time was ( 77 . 97 ± 26 . 82 ) min and the time from the end of operation to extubation was (8. 31 ± 3. 33) min. All the patients were recorded without obvious body movement during the operation procedure. There were 4 patients (11. 11%, 4/36) with slight body movement during extubation. The incidence of sore throat was 13. 89% (5/36) within 24 h postoperatively. There were no complications of bleeding, hematoma and injury of local nerves. The vital signs of baseline T0 were significantly different from those at other time points T1, T2, T3, and T4 (P<0. 01). As to the hearts rate after anesthesia, the values at T1, T2, T3 and T4 for two-two comparison, there was no statistical difference (P>0. 05). As to the values of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure after anesthesia at T1 and T4 , T2 and T3, for two-two comparison, there was no statistical difference (P>0. 05). As to the respiratory rate from the start of the surgery, the values at T2, T3 and T4 showed no statistical difference (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Flexible laryngeal mask airway is a supraglottic airway management method. It is suitable and safe for securing the airway in oral & maxillofacial day surgery. The advantages of fewer haemody-namic changes and postoperative complications are confirmed.

Objective To summarize the clinical and electroencephalography(EEG) characteristics of benign epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes (BECTS) in children.Methods The clinical manifestations,EEG findings,response to drug treatment and prognosis of 35 children with BECTS from Jul.2003 to Dec.2008 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were analyzed retrospectively.Results In the 35 cases,the age of onset was 2.5 to 14.0 years old,and the peak age of onset was 6-10 years old(62.9%).Twenty-two cases mainly presented partial seizures:hemifacial convulsions,sialorrhea,sounds,limb tonic-clonic seizures,and secondary generalized seizures.Thirteen cases were only describled generalized tonic-clonic seizures.Seizures were closely related to sleep and almost occurred shortly after falling asleep or before waking up.There were 26 cases who displayed convulsion during sleeping,including noon break.The EEG features showed numerous or single spikes on one side or both sides in the central and temporal areas under the background of normal activity in interictal period.The release frequency of abnormal wave was significantly increased after falling asleep,so the EEG monitoring during sleep could improve the positive rate of BECTS.Monotherapy with low-dose anti-epileptic drug could obtain good efficacy.Twenty-five cases stopped seizures within 3 months after therapy.Thirty-three cases hadn't get seizure since drug therapy at the age of 16 years old.So far,12 cases had been stopped medicine.Conclusions BECTS mostly begins at school-aged children,which displays partial seizures or secondary generalized seizures.The seizures are closely related to sleep.EEG monitoring during sleep which shows numerous or single spikes on the centrotemporal area has crucial diagnostic value to BECTS.There is a positive response to monotherapy with low-dose anti-epileptic drug and generally the prognosis is good.

0.05). Conclusion When TOFR recovers to 0.55,antagonism of residual neuromuscular blockade is still necessary.Different doses of neostigmine may antagonize vecuronium-induced residual neuromuscular blockade,and lower dose of neostigmine(10-20 ?g/kg) is recommended.

The ingredients of five kinds of Zhejiang's yellow Chrysanthemum morifolium with different flower blossoming stages were comparatively analyzed. Polysaccharides, total flavonoids, volatile oil, alcohol extract, water extract, chlorogenic acid, luteolin, 3,5-O-dicaffeoyl quinic acid and fingerprint of the ingredient were determined as indicators. During flower blossoming stages, the ingredients of Ch. morifolium showed a big difference with a certain variation. At the early opening stage, the contents of flavonoids and volatile oil were higher, the content of chlorogenic acid, luteolin, 3,5-O-dicaffeoyl quinic acid were higher in the middle of the flowers 50% -80% fowers blossoming degree is the optimal time for harvest.

Objective Laboratory tests of yeast, with their disadvantages of long identification, complicated operation, and low positive rate, cannot meet the needsof rapid diagnosis and timely treatment.This studyinvestigated the feasibility ofapplying matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry ( MALDI-TOF-MS) in rapid identification and clinical isolationof yeast strains. Methods A total of 120 clinical non-repetitive isolates were collected from clinical culture samples and identified by MALDI-TOF-MS and VITEK 2-Compact/API, respectively.The discordant results were resolved by ITS gene sequencing. Results Of the 120 yeast isolates analyzed, 117 (97.5%) were correctly identified at the species level by MALDI-TOF-MS, 1(0.8%) misidenti-fied, and 2 ( 1.7%) unidentified.ITS gene sequencing of the 3 isolates showed the coincidence rate to be 0( 0/3) for MALDI-TOF-MS and Vitek 2-Compact/API. Conclusion MALDI-TOF-MScan be used as a rapid, accurate, and inexpensive tool for the identification of clinical yeast strains.

Objective To explore the accuracy of Vitek 2 compact advanced expert system (AES) in indicating and analyze the carbapenemases-resisting Enterobacteriaceae phenotypes,and further investigate the methods to make up the AES.Methods 28 Enterobacteriaceae strains with Imipenem-Nonsusceptible by Vitek 2 compact,but AES suggested all production of carbapenemases were isolated.And imipenem susceptibility was determined by the disk diffusion method.Modified Hodge test (MHT) and the metallo-β-1actamase was detected by the double disk synergy method.Resistance genes were detected by the PCR amplification.Results ESBLs gene was amplified from all 28 selected strains,16 of which was detected KPC gene,and no strain of metallo-β-1actamases-producing bacteria.With carbapenemase gene detection as the gold standard,the accuracy of AES was 57.1％.Disc diffusion method detection accuracy rate of imipenem was 100％,and for 100％ of MHT accuracy.PCR amplification,MHT and the disk diffusion displayed the same result in detecting carbapenemases,but different with AES (x2 =10.08,P＜0.05).Conclusion The indications of the presence of carbapenemases using AES was not completely correct with a certain false-positive,and it is necessary to take other methods,such as disk diffusion or MHT methods,and improve the reliability of medicine-sensitivity tests.
