OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors,clinical characteristics and resistance of Staphylococcus aureus nosocomial infections so as to guide the treatment of S.aureus infection.METHODS To collect clinical materials of S.aureus nosocomial infection and analyze risk factors and clinical characteristics and detect sensitivity of isolated strains to antibacterial agents.RESULTS Severe underlying diseases existed among 73 cases of S.aureus nosocomial infections,82.19 percent of patients had received invasive interventions.Lower respiratory tract was the most common infective site.Seventy-nine strains of S.aureus were isolated,including 66 meticillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA) and 13 meticillin-sensitive S.aureus(MSSA).S.aureus showed general resistance to many kinds of antibiotic drugs.The resistant rates of MRSA were much higher than those of MSSA(P

Objective To explore the technique, efficacy and complications of transurethral sphincterotomy with Holmium laser for the treatment of male patients with neurogenic bladder and examine its long-term outcome. Methods 20 male cases who received transurethral sphincterotomy with Holmium laser were included in this retrospective analysis, in which 7 cases injuried at cervical spinal cord, 6 at thoracic spinal cord, 3 at cauda equine; 1 was spinal meningocele, 1 was sacral crack, 1 was ependymoma, and 1 was myelitis sequel. The age was 20~64 years, averaged 45.1 years. They were followed up for 3~95 months (averaged 43.6 months) since the last sphincterotomy. Results The 20 patients significantly improved in symptoms, laboratory examination, imaging demonstration and urodynamic index after the operation.There were 3 patients who required repeated laser surgery during the follow- up. 17 patients were stable. Conclusion Transurethral sphincterotomy with Holmium laser is effective on neurogenic bladder with less bleeding for the appropriately selected patients.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Botulinum toxin-A (BTX-A) injection into detrusor to treat neurogenic detrusor overactivity in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods A total of 78 patients with SCI were treated with transurethral injection of BTX-A (300 IU dissolved in 15 ml of saline) into 30 different points of detrusor with 15 ml in every patients. Urodynamic parameters and voiding diary were assessed at baseline and 3 weeks and 3 months after the injections. Adverse events were recorded after the injection if present.Results After the first injection, 78 patients showed that the mean frequencies of incontinence decreased from 13.5 to 2.7 times per day, the mean volume of intermittent catheterization (IC) increased from 131 ml to 389 ml per time, the mean volume of incontinence decreased from 1 690 ml to 281 ml per day, the mean getting effect time was 7.6 days. 10 patients received second injection at 8.9 months after first injection, the results showed that the mean frequencies of incontinence decreased from 9.7 to 3.7 times per day, the mean IC volume increased from 108 ml to 387 ml. 6 patients received third injection at 5.8 months after second injection, the results showed that the mean frequencies of incontinence decreased from 9.2 to 3.9 times per day, the mean IC volume increased from 116 ml to 364 ml. No side effects were observed during the follow-up.Conclusion BTX-A injection into detrusor to treat neurogenic detrusor overactivity in patients with SCI seems to be an effective, safe and miniinvasive solution.

ObjectiveTo study risk factors of urinary calculus formation in spinal cord injured patients. MethodsThe clinical data of 128 patients with spinal cord injury following urinary calculi were retrospectively reviewed.ResultsAmong the 128 cases, there were 32 cases receiving bladder stoma; 34 cases, regular replacement of indwelling catheter; 12 cases, intermittent catheterization; 19 cases, triggered reflex voiding; 11 cases, voiding by abdominal straining; 20 cases, condom catheters with urine collection devices. 120 cases presented with urinary tract infection, and 11 cases presented serum calcium increase. Video urodynamic suggested detrusor areflexia in 39 cases, detrusor overactivity in 63 cases, detrusor external sphincter dyssynergia in 41 cases, detrusor bladder neck dyssynergia in 11 cases, external urethral sphincter overactivity in 27 cases, and urethral sphincter deficiency in 11 cases. The pathology of several physiological conditions coexisted in some patients.ConclusionBladder management after spinal cord injury have a major impact on urinary stones formation. Low urinary tract infection, detrusor-urethral sphincter dyssynergia and other lower urinary tract dysfunction, long-term indwelling urinary catheter and cystostomy were main risk factors for urinary calculus formation. The abnormal calcium metabolism after spinal cord injury may be a risk factor for calculus formation.
