BACKGROUND:Current cardiac bioprostheses and mechanical valves are shown to have some flaws and shortcomings, and tissue-engineered heart valves which can avoid these problems are becoming an ideal choice for valve replacement.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the experimental progress in the construction of tissue-engineered heart valves.
METHODS:Experimental studies related to tissue-engineered heart valves were retrieved in databases. Three main elements for tissue-engineered heart valves are seed cells, scaffold materials, and cellseeding.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Cardiac valve repair and replacement is the primarily surgical treatment for valvular heart disease. At present, seed cells mainly for construction of tissue-engineered heart valves include vascular endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. The acellular scaffold has good biomechanical properties and histocompatibility. After cellseeding, a continuous celllayer wil form on the scaffold surface, which makes it possible to construct tissue-engineered heart valves. Tissue-engineered heart valve has a good prospect, but it is stil in the early stage of research and there are stil many problems that need to be solved.

Objective To evaluate the application of health education in patients with cholecystectomy. Methods From October 2009 to July 2010, 93 patients in our hospital with cholecystectomy were randomly divided into the control group (45 cases) and the observation group(48 cases). The control group was given routine nursing care, the observation group received perioperative health education in addition to the routine nursing care, then compared the nursing effect of two groups. Results In the observation group, the patients' knowledge and awareness rate of their own disease was 95.8%, and the control group was 80.0%, the difference was statistically significant between two groups. The recovery of gastrointestinal function in the observation group was significantly better than the control group, the difference was statistically significant between two groups. Conclusions Health education can enable patients with cholecystectomy correct understanding of their disease, eliminate negative emotions, and help the recovery of gastrointestinal function in patients, which is worthy of attention.

Sixty gynecological patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery during October 2010 to June 2011were randomly divided into 2 groups:laryngeal mask airway proseal ( PLMA group,n =30 ) and laryngeal mask airway classic (CLMA group,n =30).Laryngeal mask was inserted after induction.The heart rate (HR),mean arterial pressure (MAP),airway sealing pressure,the average time of placement,the pulmonary satisfaction and complications were recorded.There was no significant difference in heart rate and MAP between the two groups(P＞0.05).The airway sealing pressure [ (26 ±6) cm H2O ( 1cm H2O =0.098 kPa) vs.(16±5) cm H2O],the average time of placement [(36±5) vs.(24±6) s)] and the excellent lung ventilation(90％ vs.73％ ) in the PLMA group were more significantly increased than those in the CLMA group(P ＜0.05).PLMA can assure good airway sealing and is more suitable for gynecological patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of agitating thrombolysis technique for Budd-Chiari syndrome complicated with inferior vena cava (IVC) fresh thrombus. Methods From August 2004 to March 2009, 5 patients of Budd-Chiari syndrome (four males and one female, aged 36-48 years) with IVC fresh thrombus were treated with agitating thrombolysis technique. After anpography of IVC the recanalization of IVC was performed, which was followed by agitating thrombolytic therapy. Finally,IVC was dilated with percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty. Clinical follow-up of IVC patency was conducted by color Doppler sonography. Results After agitating thrombolysis. The thrombi were completely disappeared in all 5 patients without single occurrence of pulmonary embolism. In all patients, IVC remained patency on color Doppler ultrasonograph after following up for a mean period of 23.8 months. Conclusion Agitating thrombolysis technique is a safe and effective treatment for Budd-Chiari syndrome complicated with IVC fresh thrombus.
