International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2017;38(16):2188-2189,2192
Objective To investigate the clinical effect of adopting B-type ultrasound guided peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) in the patients with lung cancer.Methods Two hundreds and ninety-five cases of lung cancer undergoing PICC in our hospital from January 2011 to May 2016 were selected as the research subjects and divided into the observation group (151 cases) and control group (144 cases) according to the PICC methods.PICC in the observation group adopted the B-type guided modified Seldinger technique,while the control group adopted the conventional method.The venous thrombus occurrence situation in the two groups was comparatively analyzed.Results (1) The platelet count (PLT),plasma D dimer (D-D) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2),endothelin (ET),6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha (6-keto-PGF1α) before PICC had no signigicant difference between the two groups (P>0.05).PLT,D-D,TXB2 and ET at 12,24 h after PICC in the observation group and control group were gradually increased,while plasma 6-keto-PGF1α was gradually decreased,the intra-group difference among different time points had statistical significant (P<0.05).PLT and plasma D-D,TXB2 and ET in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,while keto-PGF1α was significantly higher than that in the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).(2)The incidence rate of venous thrombosis in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group,the difference was statistically significant between the two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Adopting B-type ultrasound guided modified Seldinger technique for PICC in the patients with lung cancer has much lower incidence rate of venous thrombosis.
5.Estimate of the Amount of Blood Loss after Cesarean Section by Different Methods and Analysis the Related Risk Factors of the Blood Loss More than 500 ml
Journal of Practical Obstetrics and Gynecology 2017;33(6):461-464
Objective:To choose a best method of estimating the amount of blood loss after cesarean deliveryby comparing of three methods,to analyze the related factors of the amount of the blood loss more than 500ml after cesarean section.Methods:We collected the clinical data of the patients who were accepted cesarean delivery and treated in our hospital between January 2014 and December 2014.We estimate the amount of blood loss by different methods(including visually estimated,hematocrit (HCT) change and formula).Based on the formula method as the gold standard,we analyze the risk factors of the patients whose blood loss were more than 500 ml.Results:Among the 583 patients,using the method of visually estimated,there were 23 cases whose blood loss were more than 500 ml(3.95%),using the method of formula,there were 133 cases whose blood loss were more than 500 ml (22.81%),using the method of HCT change,there were 116 cases whose blood loss were more than 500 ml(19.90%).The incidence of patients whose blood loss were more than 500 ml between HCT change and formula method showed no significant difference(P > 0.05),but the incidence by visually estimated method was less than the two other methods (P < 0.05).We found the value of HCT change was a statistically significant positive correlation with the amount of blood loss more than 500ml.When the blood loss was more than 500 ml,the accuracy and sensitiveness of HCT method were significantly higher than those of visually estimated method(76.69%,87.93% vs 12.78%,73.91%,respectively).Abnormal labor,uterine leiomyoma,placental factors,and macrosomia were risk factors of cases whose blood loss more than 500ml.Conclusions:HCT method is similar in accessing the blood loss after cesarean section with formula method,especially in the cases whose blood loss was more than 500 ml;HCT method is more convenient than formula method,and more accurate than visually estimated method.HCT method can be used as the standard for estimating blood loss initially,and formula method should be used as the method for estimating the blood loss accurately.Patients with macrosomia and abnormal labor are more likely to occur massive hemorrhage after cesarean section.
