Objective:Discuss how the management of implantable medical consumables can be standard during the links of production, transportation, internal logistics of the hospital and the sector of using. Methods: In accordance with the relevant national laws and regulations, and long-term management practice and experience, and aiming at the specialty and high risk characteristics of implanting medical consumables, we apply information technique to regulate the standard operation of the whole medical supplies links (raw materials, processing of products, marketing, warehousing transportation, and the usage of the patients), therefore the roots can be traced back. The implanted medical supplies traceability standardized management needs to be explored. Results: Through the establishment of the traceability management process system of implanting medical supplies, the standard management mode of the medical supply technique will be attained. Even when the information is incomplete, we can retrieve and trace back quickly. Therefore, the goal of controlling the adverse events of medical implants, reducing medical risks can be achieved. Conclusion:the discussion above can be taken as a reference to the standardization of the management of implantable medical consumables.

BACKGROUND: Early withdrawal of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) followed by noninvasive MV (NIMV) is a new strategy for changing modes of treatment in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) with acute respiratory failure (ARF). Using pulmonary infection control window (PIC window) as the switch point for transferring from invasive to noninvasive MV, the time for early extubation can be more accurately judged, and therapy efficacy can be improved. This study aimed to prospectively investigate the clinical effectiveness of fiberoptic bronchscopy (FOB) in patients with AECOPD during sequential weaning of invasive-noninvasive MV. METHODS: Since July 2006 to January 2011, 106 AECOPD patients with ARF were treated with comprehensive medication and IMV after hospitalization. Patients were randomly divided into two groups according to whether fiberoptic bronchoscope is used (group A, n=54) or not (group B, n=52) during sequential weaning from invasive to noninvasive MV. In group A, for sputum suction and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), a fiberoptic bronchoscope was put into the airway from the outside of an endotracheal tube, which was accompanied with uninterrupted use of a ventilator. After achieving PIC window, patients of both groups changed to NIMV mode, and weaned from ventilation. The fol owing listed indices were used to compare between the groups after treatment: 1) the occurrence time of PIC, the duration of MV, the length of ICU stay, the success rate of weaning from MV for the first time, the rate of reventilation and the occurrence rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP); 2) the convenience and safety of FOB manipulation. The results were compared using Student's t test and the Chi-square test. RESULTS: The occurrence time of PIC was (5.01±1.49) d, (5.87±1.87) d in groups A and B, respectively (P<0.05); the duration of MV was (6.98±1.84) d, (8.69±2.41) d in groups A and B, respectively (P<0.01); the length of ICU stay was (9.25±1.84) d, (11.10±2.63) d in groups A and B, respectively (P<0.01); the success rate of weaning for the first time was 96.30％, 76.92％ in groups A and B, respectively (P<0.01); the rate of reventilation was 5.56％, 19.23％ in groups A and B, respectively (P<0.05); and the occurrence rate of VAP was 3.70％, 23.07％ in groups A and B, respectively (P<0.01). Moreover, it was easy and safe to manipulate FOB, and no side effect was observed. CONCLUSIONS: The application of FOB in patients with AECOPD during sequential weaning of invasive-noninvasive MV is effective in ICU. It can decrease the duration of MV and the length of ICU stay, increase the success rate from weaning MV for the first time, reduce the rate of reventilation and the occurrence rate of VAP. In addition, such a method is convenient and safe in patients of this kind.

OBJECTIVETo study the distribution and antibiotic resistance of the isolated pathogens from children with infectious diarrhea in Guangzhou.

METHODSThe fecal samples of 2 409 children with infectious diarrhea between January 2006 and December 2007 were collected and cultured. Pathogenic bacterium were isolated and identified by biochemical and serological methods. The antibiotic susceptibilities were tested by the Kirby-Bauer method.

RESULTSA total of 448 isolates of pathogenic bacterium (18.6%) were obtained, including Shigella (n=159), enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (n=141), Salmonella (n=76), Vibrion (n=11), fungus (n=41), and C jejuni (n=20). All of isolates of the three major pathogenic bacterium, Shigella, enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and Salmonella, were susceptible to imipenem and less than 10% of the isolates were resistant to the third generation cephalosporins and beta-lactamase inhibitors. However, the isolates showed a high resistance to ampicillin and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (>75%).

CONCLUSIONSShigella, enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and Salmonella were major pathogenic bacterium of diarrhea in children from Guangzhou. The major isolates were susceptible to imipenem, the third generation cephalosporins and beta -lactamase inhibitors, but were resistant to ampicillin and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim.

Objective To investigate the clinical features, effective treatment, survival and prognostic factors of second primary tongue squamous cell carcinoma (SPTSCC) after nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) radiotherapy. Methods The clinical data of 35 cases with SPTSCC after NPC radiotherapy were analyzed retrospectively. Kaplan-Meier method, Log-Rank test and COX proportional hazard mode was performed for statistical analysis. Results 3-year and 5-year overall survival rates were 55 % and 47 %, respectively, lymph node metastasis rate was 5.71 %. Univariate analysis indicated that gender (χ2 = 8.89, P = 0.00), T classification (χ2= 5.58, P= 0.02), clinical stage (χ2 = 8.51, P= 0.04) and treatment methods (χ2 = 29.37, P = 0.00) were important factors of prognosis. Multivariate analysis showed that treatment methods (P = 0.00) and T classification (P = 0.03) were independent prognostic factors. Operative treatment group had better prognosis than the non-operative treatment group, the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05), male patients in the risk of SPTSCC was higher than the female patients, and the incidence of SPTSCC was increased along with extension of the time after NPC radiotherapy. Conclusion The rate of the lymph node metastasis is lower for SPTSCC after NPC radiotherapy and treatment patterns and T stage are independent prognostic factors. Long-term follow-up after NPC radiotherapy is necessary to the early diagnosis of SPTSCC, so that to give surgery or combined therapy with surgery in order to achieve a good effect.

Objective To compare the clinical and radiological outcomes between hybrid and total pedicle screw instrumentation in adolescents undergone posterior spinal fusion (PSF) for thoracic scoliosis secondary to Chiari malformation..Methods A total of 75 patients undergone PSF were included and divided into two groups:the all pedicle screw group (Group A,n=44) and the hybrid group (Group B,n=31).Patients were evaluated before surgery,immediately after surgery,and at the 2-year follow-up in radiographic changes in curve magnitude,apical vertebral translation (AVT),apical vertebral rotation (AVR),trunk shift,thoracic kyphosis (TK),lumbar lordosis (LL),and sagittal vertical axis (SVA).These parameters were further analyzed with respect to preoperative TK in both groups.Results After surgery,the average correction of the thoracic curve was 60.2％ and 51.3％ in Group A and B,respectively (t=2.372,P=0.023).The average lumbar curve correction was 61.7％ in Group A,representing a significant increase compared to Group B (51.1％,t=2.431,P=0.020).At the final follow-up,loss of the thoracic curve correction was less in Group A (0.3％) than in Group B (1.7％),however,there was no statistical significance (t=-0.468,P＞0.05).AVT of the thoracic curve improved in Group A from 25.0 mm to 6.9 mm,while in Group B it changed from 24.1 mm to 7.4 mm.For patients with a preoperative TK greater than 40°,the proximal junctional angle was found to be significantly larger in Group A (10.0 degrees versus 4.5 degrees,t=-2.031,P=0.052) by the final follow-up,along with a significantly increased incidence of proximal junctional kyphosis (20％ versus 9％).Conclusion Total pedicle screw instrumentation provided a significantly better correction of the major and minor curves than hybrid constructs for the operative treatment of thoracic scoliosis secondary to Chiari malformation.However,for patients with thoracic hyperkyphosis,all-screw instrumentation had a higher risk of adjacent level proximal kyphosis.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of mild hypothermia (MH) in treating the infants with moderate-to-severe neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE),and to make a follow-up of the nerve motor development of the infants at 18 months old after discharge.Methods Totally 61 neonates with moderate-to-severe HIE in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) from Jan.2007 to Dec.2013 were retrospectively analyzed.According to before and after MH therapeutic apparatus was used by NICU of Shanghai Children's Hospital,61 neonates of HIE were divided into 2 groups,the conventional treatment group(25 cases) and MH treatment group(36 cases).The patients in both groups were measured respectively by using the amplitude integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) before MH treatment and at 72 hours after M H treatment,by neonatal behavioral neurological assessment(NBNA) on the 28th day after birth,and by adopting Bayley Scales of Infant Development at 18 months old.The adverse reactions,serious disability cases and deaths of MH treatment were recorded.Results Compared with the conventional treatment group,aEEG recording before treatment showed no statistically significant differences in MH treatment group [maximum voltage:(22.4 ±3.1) μV vs(18.6 ±2.5) μV,maximum voltage:(8.2 ±2.6)μV vs(6.5 ±1.9) μV,t =1.264,0.852,all P ＞ 0.05].However,aEEG recording at 72 h after treatment showed statistically significant differences in MH treatment group [maximum voltage:(24.1 ± 3.2) μV vs (30.6 ± 2.8) μV,maximum voltage:(9.7 ± 3.4) μV vs (13.3 ± 2.2) μV,t =6.376,4.257,all P ＜ 0.05].Severe disability cases [24.0％ (6/25 cases) vs 5.6％ (2/36 cases),x2 =4.405,P ＜ 0.05] and deaths [16.0％ (4/25 cases) vs 0 (0/36 case),x2 =6.1 64,P ＜ 0.05] in MH treatment group were significantly decreased,and there was significantly difference in NBNA on the 28th day after birth[(35.9 ± 2.1) vs(39.1-± 1.6),t =3.361,P ＜ 0.05],and scales of neurobehavioral evaluation through follow-up of 18 months old [mental development index (MDI):(85.2 ± 10.7) vs (96.5-± 13.1),t =7.839,P ＜ 0.05].Very few neonates had apnea,coagulation dysfunction,arrhythmia and other adverse reactions in MH treatment course.Conclusions MH treating moderate-to-severe HIE is safe and effective.MH is effective in reducing death and major disabilities in neonates with moderate-to-severe HIE and without significant side effects.MH can obviously improve the development of nervous system disorders in 0-18 months infants,and can significantly improve these infants' Bayley developmental scale neurobehavioral scores.

Objective To observe the protective effect of silybin-phosphatidylcholine compound(SPC) on acute liver damage induced by alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate(ANIT) in mice.Methods Forty mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:normal group,model group,SPCⅠgroup,SPCⅡgroup.Intragastric administration of 0.5% carboxymethylcelluloes-Na(CMC-Na) suspension were given to the normal and model group,and 2 quantities of SPC suspension(150 and 300 mg/kg) were respectively given to SPCⅠ and SPC Ⅱ groups for 1 week.At 12 h after last administration of SPC,all of groups besides normal were given ANIT(dissolved in peanut oil,(60 mg/kg)) by lavage and the normal group just only were given peanute oil by the same volume and same way.After 16 h of ANIT administration,the levels of serum alanine transferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),serum total bilirubin(TB),malondialdehyde(MDA) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) were detected by biochemical method.Results Serum levels of ALT,AST,TB and MDA markedly increased after ANIT was administered via intragastric tube,and the level of serum SOD also decrease.SPC could obviously inhibit the alteration of the activities of serum ALT,AST,TB,MDA and SOD(P
