In order to strengthen the management of disinfection quality of endoscopes, Quality Control Center of Digestive Endoscopy and Nosocomial Infection Control Center of Yunnan Province investigated the diagnosis, treatment, cleaning and disinfection conditions and disinfection quality of digestive endoscopes in some medical institutions of Yunnan Province by web questionnaire from April to May in 2019, and 277 valid questionnaires were finally obtained. SPSS 19.0 statistical software was used to analyze the influencing factors of cleaning and disinfection process and the infection control implementation of digestive endoscopes in 227 secondary and tertiary hospitals. The results showed that the number of decontamination people who had received systematic training in Yunnan Province was significantly lower than that in other areas of China. The hospital level, the number of decontamination personnel, and decontamination methods affected the implementation of cleaning and decontamination process and infection control, while the allocation of decontamination supplies had no effects. It is important to establish an effective mechanism for the normalized implementation of cleaning and disinfection of digestive endoscopes.

Objective To sum up the experience in the diagnosis and management of acute lower extremity arterial injury.Methods Between Jan 1988 and Feb 2004,125 cases of lower limb arterial injuries were admitted and undergoing surgery, including gunshot in 3 cases, blunt trauma in 56 and stabbing in 66 cases. Associated injuries included bony injury in 36 cases, nerve injury in 11 cases, and vein injury in 23 cases. Arterial primary or patch repair was performed in 28 cases, end-to-end anastomosis in 37 cases, saphenous vein graft used in 32 cases, prosthetic graft bypass in 23 cases, thrombectomy in 2 cases and blood vessel ligation in 3 cases.Results Limb salvage rate was 85.6% and patient survival of 98.4%. Massive bleeding and multiple organ failure caused mortality in one each. The rate of amputation is 10.4%(13/125), with preoperative gangrene being present in 8 cases.Conclusion Lower extremity arterial injury carries a high amputation rate. The use of Doppler scanner is helpful for early diagnosis. An ankle/brachial index of less than 1 in the affected limb was considered as a positive sign of arterial injury. Prompt revascularization and early fasciectomy are important to reduce amputation rate and mortality.
