0.05).Con- clusion It is a feasible way for infants to fast in solid diet 6 hours and liquid 2 hours before operation in order to re- duce indisposition of infants and meet the need of operation.

Objective To explore the effect of experimental design in the experimental teaching of fundamental nursing. Methods 168 and 199 baccalaureate nursing students were in the control and experimental group respectively, the control group received traditional experimental teaching method, and the experimental group must complete the experimental design before entering the lab. The teaching effect between the two groups were compared. Results The mean operation score of the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group, the proportion of those students who reflected their teaching method could enhance creative ability, problem-solving ability and practical ability was higher in the experimental group, 100% teachers reflected experimental design could improve operation level, strengthen theoretical knowledge, animate teaching atmosphere. Conclusions Experimental design could arouse students' enthusiasm and initiative to study, advocate them to think and ask.

Objective To explore the efficacy of low tidal volume ventilation strategy in children with acute hypoxia respiratory failure (AHRF).Methods A total of 79 hospitalized children with AHRF from Aug 2006 to Jul 2011 in PICU of Kunming Children's Hospital were enrolled in this study.The observation group in-cluded 55 children who received low tidal volume ventilation strategy (6-8 ml /kg),while the other 24 children (control group)were given traditional mechanical ventilation (10-12 ml /kg).Oxygenation situations such as PaO2 ,PaCO2 ,PaO2 /FiO2 ,oxygen index and blood gas pH value,organ function,mechanical ventilation complica-tions,hospitalization days and expenses in PICU and the mortality were observed.Results (1)PaO2 ,PaO2 /FiO2 and oxygen index in the observation group were better than those in control group after 24 h mechanical ventilation [(68.51 ±7.53)mmHg(1 mmHg =0.133 kPa)vs.(61.64 ±9.28)mmHg,(162.9 ±21.84)mmHg vs.(152.1 ± 19.03)mmHg,and 18.85 ±4.1 vs.26.53 ±5.2,respectively],and there were significant differences between two groups (P ﹤0.05);and there were also significant differences between two groups in the results after 48 h and 72 h mechanical ventilation.(2)The PaCO2 was (47.48 ±10.52)mmHg after 24 h in observation group,while the PaCO2 in control group was (30.17 ±6.59)mmHg,and it suggested excessive ventilation.(3)Mechanical venti-lation time (7.6 ±3.1)d and hospitalization days (12.8 ±3.6)d were shorter in observation group(P ﹤0.01). Barotrauma (7.3%)and mortality (20.0%)in observation group was significantly lower than those in control group (29.2%,41.6%;P ﹤0.01).The number of damaged organs in observation group was lower than that in control group (P ﹤0.05).Conclusion Low tidal volume ventilation with appropriate positive end expiratory pressure could improve oxygenation,prevent alveolar collapse,reduce complications and mortality for children with AHRF,it should be applied for the treatment of children with AHRF.

Patients who are diagnosed with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) usually have ventilation-perfusion mismatch, severe decrease in lung capacity, and gas exchange abnormalities. Health care workers have implemented various strategies in an attempt to compensate for these pathological alterations. By rotating patients with ALI/ARDS between the supine and prone position, it is possible to achieve a significant improvement in PaO2/FiO2, decrease shunting and therefore improve oxygenation without use of expensive, invasive and experimental procedures. Prone positioning is a safe and effective way to improve ventilation when conventional strategies fail to initiate a patient response. Because a specific cure for ARDS is not available, the goal is to support the patients with therapies that cause the least amount of injury while the lungs have an opportunity to heal. Based on current data, a trial of prone positioning ventilation should be offered to the patients who have ALI/ARDS in the early course of the disease. Published studies exhibit substantial heterogeneity in clinical results, suggesting that an adequately sized study optimizing the duration of proning ventilation strategy is warranted to enable definitive conclusions to be drawn.

Objective To analyze the consistency of the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer,Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer and optical microscope in detecting urine erythrocyte.Methods The fresh urine specimens from 427 patients were randomly extracted and tested by the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer,urine dry chemistry analyzer and OLUMPUS Arkray AX-4030 optical microscope.Then the consistency of the results for detecting urine erythrocyte was compared among three kinds of detection method.Results With the microscopic examination as control,the sensitivity and spe-cificity of the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer for detecting urine erythrocyte were 82.84% and 86.35% re-spectively,which of the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer were 89.55% and 83.96% respectively.There was a high consistency between the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer and the optical microscope for detecting urine e-rythrocyte and the Kappa value was 0.580.There was also a high consistency between the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer and the optical microscope for detecting urine erythrocyte and the Kappa value was 0.625,while the consistency between the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer and the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer was weaker and the Kappa value was 0.324.Conclusion With the detection by the SYSMEX UF1000i automatic urinary sediment analyzer and the Arkray AX-4030 urine dry chemistry analyzer as a screening test,it should need to combine with the optical microscopy to conduct recheck for providing the effective and reliable test results quickly and accurately.

Objective To explore the effect of low tidal volume ventilation on the treatment of children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods Forty-four hospitalized children with ARDS from Jan 2008 to Dec 2011 at Kunming Children's Hospital were enrolled in this study.The observation group included 24 patients who received the treatment of low tidal volume ventilation (6 ～ 8 ml/kg),while the other 20 patients were in the control group who were given traditional volume ventilation (10 ～ 12 ml/kg).Oxygenation situations and blood gas analysis at 24,48,72 h after ventilation、mechanical ventilation complications,and the mortality in the first 28 days were observed.Results The ratios of PaO2/FiO2 were 104 ±23.6 in observation group and 112 ±34.7 in control group (P ＞0.05).However,after 24,48 and 72 h of ventilation,the ratios of PaO2/FiO2 showed statistical significance (t ≥2.01,P ＜0.05 ; t ≥2.74,P ＜ 0.01).Barotrauma in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group (x2 =6.97,P ＜ 0.01).The mortality (16.7％) of the observation group was significantly lower than that (50％) of the control group (x2 =5.58,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Low tidal volume ventilation can reduce complications and improve oxygenation of ARDS patients,and reduce the mortality in ARDS children.The improved rescue technology should be applied for the treatment of children with ARDS.

Objective To evaluate the effect of tripterine on hydrochloric acid-induced acute lung injury(ALI)in mice.Methods Eighteen pathogen-free healthy adult male ICR mice,aged 7-9 weeks,weighing 25-30 g,were divided into 3 groups(n=6 each)using a random number table:control group(group C),hydrochloric acid-induced ALI group(group ALI)and tripterine group(group T).ALI was induced by a single intratracheal instillation of hydrochloric acid 2 ml/kg(pH 1.5)via a 24-gauge angiocatheter inserted into the trachea in pentobarbital sodium-anesthetized mice.Tripterine 3 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally once a day for 3 consecutive days,and then the model was established in group T.The mice were sacrificed at 6 h after instillation,and lung specimens were obtained for microscopic examination and for determination of the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),macrophage migration inhibitory factor(MIF)and myeloperoxidase(MPO)in lung tissues.Results Compared with group C,the levels of TNF-α,IL-6,MIF and MPO were significantly increased at 6 h after instillation in ALI and T groups(P<0.01).Compared with group ALI,the levels of TNF-α,IL-6,MIF and MPO were significantly decreased at 6 h after instillation in group T(P<0.01).The pathological changes of lung tissues were significantly attenuated in group T compared with group ALI.Conclusion Tripterine can attenuate hydrochloric acid-induced ALI in mice.
