Objective To study the impact of therapy strategy on outcomes of patients suffering from severe sepsis and/or septic shock. Method A total of 195 patients diagnosed as severe sepsis or septic shock were enrolled for prospective study from June 2008 to December 2009. Patient's clinical manifestation,treatments and outcomes were studied by using SSC database. Patients were divided into control group and treatment group. In control group, patients enrolled from June 2008 to December 2008, were treated with conventional medical care In treatment group, patients enrolled from January 2009 to December 2009 were treated with a novel algorithm of mandatory treatment for sepsis In-hospital mortality of two groups was compared. SPSS15.0 software was used for analysis of data. Chi-square test and unpaired t-test were used for comparisons between groups. Results Compared to the control group The need for blood lactate test was significantly grown in treatment group [98.2% (115/117) versus 2.56% (2/78), P < 0.001]. Antibiotics was administered to 69.2% (81/117) patients of treatment group within 3 hours after their arrival at the emergency department compared to 35.8% (28/78) in the control group (P < 0. 001). Blood cultures made before antibiotics given were 47.9% (56/117) in the treatment group compared to the control group 25.6%(20/78), P = 0. 003. The rate of fluid resuscitation was 80.3% (53/66) in the treatment group and 27%(10/37) in the control group, P <0.001. The rate of CVP (8 mmHg was 27.3% (18/66) in the treatment group and 8.1% (3/37) in the control group, P = 0. 023. In-hospital mortality was 29.1% (34/117) in the treatment group and 44.8% (35/78) in the control group, P =0. 032. Conclusions The algorithm of mandatory treatment for sepsis improved the therapeutic efficacy of the treatment for severe sepsis and septic shock, decreasing in-hospital mortality.

Objective To investigate the anti-fibrotic effect of Kudancao tablets on bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in rats . Methods Forty healthy adult SD rats(200±20g)were randomly divided into 4 groups: normal control group(without any treatment),normal saline group(intratracheal instillation of normal saline), model group(intratracheal instillation of 5mg/kg of Bleomycin)and kudancao tablets group(intragastric administration of kudancao tablets suspended in normal saline,0.705g/(100 g.d),2 times/day and for 5 times, then intratracheal instillation of 5 mg/kg of Bleomycin 1h later). Rats in all groups were scraficed 14d and 28d after intratracheal instillation. Alkali hydrolysis method was used to detect the HYP content in lung tissues. The pathological changes were observed with HE staining and silver staining. ResultsCompared with the normal control group and normal saline group,the HYP content in the lung tissues of rats in model group increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with the model group,the HYP content in the lung tissues of rats in kudancao tablets group decreased significantly(P<0.01). Pathological examination showed that significant fibrotic changes were found in lungs of rats in model group,while the fibrotic changes were ameliorated in lungs of rats in kudancao tablets group. ConclusionKudancao tablets may decrease the hydroxyproline content in lung tissues,and ameliorate the fibrotic degree of lungs of rats with bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis.
