Objective To investigate the correlation between the transport time of preterm infants with respira-tory failure and the clinical outcome. And to determine the transit time in critically ill premature infants. Methods Premature infants in level Ⅱ neonatal ward in Hunan Province Children's Hospital from January 1 to December 31, 2013,admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit requiring respiratory support(invasive and noninvasive),were re-viewed. All the patients were classified into non - standardized transport group and regulate transport group according to respiratory support that infants in the level Ⅱ neonatal ward required. Data on general information,the time of ventilator application,the time of exposure to oxygen,morbidity of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD),the cure and improvement rate,length of stay,the total length of stay(length of stay in the local hospital and our hospital),and hospitalization ex-penses were collected. Results Among the 363 infants,there were 107 cases in the non - standardized transport group, and 256 cases in the regulate transport group. The time of ventilator application in the non - standardized transport group was longer than that in regulate transport group[(19. 75 ± 19. 53)d vs(13. 02 ± 12. 64)d,t = 18. 706,P ﹤ 0. 05],the time of exposure to oxygen was longer[(30. 60 ±24. 80)d vs(19. 50 ±19. 24)d,t =6. 883,P ﹤0. 05],the morbidity of BPD was higher[57. 01%(61/ 107 cases)vs 18. 36%(47/ 256 cases),χ2 = 53. 934,P ﹤ 0. 05],but the cure and im-provement rate was lower[70. 10%(75/ 107 cases)vs 83. 20%(213/ 256 cases),χ2 = 7. 912,P ﹤ 0. 05],and the total length of stay was longer[(59. 50 ± 34. 02)d vs(34. 48 ± 23. 69)d,t = 22. 967,P ﹤ 0. 05]than that in the regulate group. But there was no significant difference between the length of stay[(43. 99 ±28. 08)d vs(32. 79 ± 23. 76)d,t =2. 012,P ﹥0. 05]in the non - standardized transport group and regulate transport group,with the hospitalization expenses [(6. 55 ±4. 30)vs(4. 99 ±4. 12)thousands yuan,t =0. 552,P ﹥0. 05]. Conclusions The non - standardized transport group has higher morbidity of BPD,but lower cure or improvement rate,and it has longer length of stay. The 2013 edition of Chinese Neonatal Ward Hierarchical Construction and Management Guide(Proposal)is reasonable,level Ⅱ neonatal ward should be in strict accordance with it to transport regional neonatal.

Objective To study the effectiveness of family-integrated-care (FICare) for preterm infants with moderate to severe bronchopuhnonary dysplasia (BPD) in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).Method Preterm infants with moderate to severe BPD in Hunan Children's Hospital from January 2015 to March 2016 were selected as the objects.These infants were assigned into two groups (FICare group and control group) in the base of whether the parents agreed to implement FICare.If the infant was enrolled into FICare group,the parents need to spend 3 hours in ward every day,and participate in nursing services under the guidance of nurses.The nursing services included bathing,cuddling,skin care,breast-feeding,and so on.If the infant was enrolled into control group,these nursing services were implemented by nurses.Oxygen exposure time,breast-feeding rate,time of begin oral feeding,time of total oral feeding,weight growth rate during hospitalization,weight of discharge,length of stay,readmission rate within 30 days,the rate of parents that mastered basic care knowledge and skills when discharge from hospital,the rate of satisfaction,and the rate of follow-up within 30 days of the two groups were compared.Result There were 106 cases in our study,54 in the FICare group and 52 in the control group.Compare the FICare group and the control group,there were statistical differences between two groups in the follow aspects (all P ＜ 0.05):oxygen exposure time [(57.1 ±20.9) d vs.(71.4 ±32.6) d],breast-feeding rate (77.8％ vs.44.2％),time of total oral feeding [(46.1 4 19.6) d vs.(59.4 ± 30.2) d,length of stay [(65.8 ± 18.4) d vs.(84.3 ±35.0) d],the rate of parents that mastered basic care knowledge and skills when discharge from hospital (96.3％ vs.82.7％),the rate of satisfaction (94.4％ vs.84.6％),the rate of follow-up within 30 days (92.6％ vs.73.1％).Conclusion FICare could significantly reduce oxygen exposure time of preterm infants with moderate to severe BPD,could improve the level of parents mastered basic care knowledge and skills of preterm infants,especially in critically ill preterm children,and could shorten length of stay of them.FICare is beneficial to the healthy growth of premature infants with BPD.

Objective To establish a neural network model based on enhanced CT for distinguishing ISUP grade of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Methods We collected 131 cases of ccRCC, with 92 cases of low ISUP grade and 39 cases of high ISUP grade. Patients were divided into training set and validation set according to 5:5 stratified sampling. The enhanced CT images of each ccRCC patient were evaluated by the radiologist. Recursive feature elimination (RFE) was used to reduce the dimension of patients' general features and enhanced CT features, which was used for neural network modeling and validation. Results Patients' general features and enhanced CT features were verified by RFE method and then reduced to 14 features. The top 5 features were growth pattern, necrosis, enlargement of lymph nodes, tumor size and capsule. The AUC of the neural network model based on these 5 features in training set was 0.8844 (95%CI: 0.8062-0.9626), sensitivity was 89.47% and specificity was 82.61%; and those in validation set were 0.7924 (95%CI: 0.6567-0.9280), 75.00% and 86.96%, respectively. Conclusion The neural network model of ccRCC ISUP grade based on enhanced CT has relatively high diagnostic efficiency.

Objective:To study the changes of cord blood neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) under different levels of hypoxia at birth and its correlations with hypoxic organ damage (including liver, kidney and heart).Methods:From April to October 2022, all neonates born in our hospital were prospectively enroll in the study. The neonates without perinatal risk factors were assigned into the control group. The neonates with intrauterine distress or hypoxia during labor were assigned into the hypoxia group (no asphyxia at birth) and the asphyxia group (with asphyxia at birth). Cord blood was collected from the umbilical artery and cord blood gas (CBG) and NGAL were measured. Liver enzymes, kidney function and cardiac enzymes as biomarkers for hypoxic organ damage were measured 24~48 h after birth. The correlations of NGAL and the biomarkers were analyzed.Results:A total of 161 neonates were enrolled, including 91 in the control group, 49 in the hypoxia group and 21 in the asphyxia group. NGAL in the asphyxia group was significantly higher than the hypoxia group and the control group [(1.81±0.71) ng/ml vs. (1.22±0.53) ng/ml, (0.88±0.47) ng/ml], NGAL in the hypoxia group significantly higher than the control group ( P<0.05). NGAL was negatively correlated with Apgar score, pH and BE of CBG ( r<-0.3, P<0.05) and positively correlated with lactate, ALT, creatinine ( r>0.3, P<0.05). No significant correlations existed between NGAL and gender, gestational age, birth weight, mother's age, BMI and CK-MB ( P<0.05). ROC curve showed that sensitivity and specificity of NGAL for predicting hypoxic organ damage were 84.3% and 60.3%, respectively, with a cut-off value of 1.07 ng/ml. Conclusions:Cord blood NGAL may increase with the deterioration of hypoxia at birth and may be associated with hypoxic organ damage.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different cleaning methods on the cleaning effect of Da Vinci robotic electrosurgical instruments and the feasibility of adenosine triphosphate(ATP) fluorescence detection technology for evaluating the cleaning effect of Da Vinci robotic electrosurgical instruments.Methods:A total of 180 electrosurgical instruments were divided into control group and test group by random digits table method from June 2018 to June 2019 after robotic surgery. For the control group, 90 cases were manually cleaned to complete the device cleaning process, and for the test group, 90 cases were mechanically cleaned to complete the device cleaning process. Through visual observation, magnifying glass examination and ATP fluorescence detection technology, the cleaning effect of the two methods and the correlation between the evaluation results obtained by ATP fluorescence detection technique and traditional inspection method were compared.Results:The qualified rate of visual observation, magnifying lens examination and ATP fluorescence detection in the control group were 95.56%(85/90), 86.67% (78/90) and 84.44% (76/90), respectively, and that in the test group were 100.00% (90/90), 97.78% (88/90) and 98.89% (89/90), respectively. The test group was higher than the control group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 values were 4.310, 7.745, 12.291, P<0.05 or 0.01). In the control group, there was a positive correlation between the qualified rate of ATP fluorescence detection and visual observation ( r value was 0.374, P < 0.01), and a significant positive correlation between the qualified rate of magnifying lens examination ( r value was 0.538, P < 0.01). In the test group, There was also a significant positive correlation between the qualified rate of ATP fluorescence detection and visual observation ( r value was 0.754, P < 0.01), and between the qualified rate of magnifying lens examination( r value was 0.556, P < 0.01). Conclusions:Mechanical cleaning is used to clean Da Vinci robotic electrosurgical instruments, which is superior to traditional manual cleaning. ATP fluorescence detection technology is feasible for evaluating the cleaning effect of Da Vinci robotic electrosurgical instruments.

Objective:To investigate the safety, efficacy and application indication of intra-operative cell salvage (IOCS) in cesarean section.Methods:A total of 1 265 pregnant women who received IOCS blood transfusion during cesarean section in 11 tertiary A hospitals from August 2016 to January 2019 were collected and divided into <1 500 ml group (796 cases) and ≥1 500 ml group (469 cases) according to the amount of blood loss during cesarean section. The general clinical data, ultrasonic imaging data, perinatal and puerperium indicators were analyzed retrospectively. The risk factors of intraoperative blood loss ≥1 500 mL using IOCS transfusion were analyzed by logistic multivariate regression.Results:(1) A total of 848 001 ml of blood was recovered and a total of 418 649 ml of blood was transfused in 1 265 pregnant women who received IOCS transfusions, which was equivalent to 23 258 U red blood cell suspension, greatly saving medical resources. The intraoperative blood loss in <1 500 ml group and ≥1 500 ml group was 800 ml (300-1 453 ml) and 2 335 ml (1 500-20 000 ml), respectively. No amniotic fluid embolism, severe adverse reactions, shock and death occurred in the two groups. (3) Multivariate regression analysis showed that age ≥35 years ( OR=1.5, 95% CI: 1.1-1.9), prenatal hemoglobin level <110 g/L ( OR=1.7, 95% CI: 1.3-2.2), history of uterine surgery ( OR=1.8, 95% CI: 1.3-2.6), placenta previa ( OR=1.9, 95% CI: 1.1-3.1), placenta accreta ( OR=2.6, 95% CI: 1.8-3.9), blood pool in the placenta ( OR=1.6, 95% CI: 1.1-2.3), abnormal posterior placenta muscle wall ( OR=1.8, 95% CI: 1.2-2.6), placenta projecting to the anterior uterine wall ( OR=3.0, 95% CI: 1.3-7.0) were risk factors for blood loss ≥1 500 ml in obstetric transfusion using IOCS technique, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Conclusion:IOCS is safe and effective in cesarean section, which could save the medical resources and reduces medical expenses, however, it is necessary to strictly master the application indication.
