Objective Observe the results and reality of the peripheral nerve stimulator in the obtu- rator nerve block in TURBt.Methods 18 cases received the peripheral nerve stimulator in obturator nerve block before TURBt.Results In 17cases obturator nerve reflection vanished;lcase had a little symptom of adductor spasm.Conclusion Obturator nerve block with the help of the nerve stimulator can increase the achievement and quality of obturator nerve block and avoid some complications caused by obturator nerve re- flection in TURBt,such as perforation of bladder and injury of nerve and vessel.

BACKGROUND: It is reported that the first line medical staff have experienced posttraumatic stress disorder(PTSD) symptoms after severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) events. However, there are few reports regarding the PTSD symptoms among SARS patients and the public in epidemic area. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the occurrence and main influence factors of PTSD among SARS patients and the public in epidemic area.DESIGN: Sampling investigation.SETTING: First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. PARTICIPANTS: Totally 114 SARS patients and 93 people were selected from the epidemic area of Taiyuan city from August to September in 2003.METHODS: Self-made stressor-cognition questionnaire, edited impact of event scale-revised (IES-R), perceived social support scale (PSSS), simple cope scale questionnaire(SCSQ), self-esteem scale(SES) and eysenck personality questionaire(EPQ) were conducted to 114 SARS patients and 93 common people in epidemic area. Correlative analysis was performed as well.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Detection rate of PTSD among SARS patients and the public in epidemic area. ② The score of intrusion factor,avoidance factor and hyperarousal factor of two populations. ③ The correlative analysis between IES-R score and influence factor among SARS patients and the public in epidemic area.RESULTS: The detection rate of suspect of PTSD among SARS patients was higher than that in public of epidemic area(55.1% , 31%, P = 0.000)The score of intrusion, avoidance and hyperarousal factor of SARS patients ( 11.37±9.54, 10.28±7.67, 6.55±6.20) was much higher than those of the public in epidemic area(5.64±4.68,5.58±4.74, 4.43 ±4.63,P = 0. 000) . The correlative analysis showed that the difference on PTSD incidence between SARS patients and the public of epidemic area might be due to the different stressor intensity and features. The negative response mode was the risk factor of both SARS patients and the public of epidemic area while self-esteem was the protective factor of SARS patients. CONCLUSION: ① PTSD symptoms had appeared among all the correlative populations although the exposure intensity of SARS event stress was different. The detection rate of PTSD and symptoms of intrusion, avoidance and hyperarousal were much common among SARS patients; ② The difference between groupswas due to the different stressor intensity as well as the different influence factors of different population.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of lumbar spinal canal stenosis treated by microen-descopic discectomy. Methods The rear guard intervertebral discoscope was used to carry on unilateral or-bilateral "windowing" to relieve the dura mater spinalis and the nerve root oppression thoroughly. The "C" ann machine or laferal side photography position X was used for localization. Approximately 1.5 cm incision was made under local anesthesia or under the shallow epidural anaesthesia at posterior waist, the pathway tube was implanted after progressive expansion, part of lamina of vertebra was removed by drill, endoscope was inserted under the television surveillance to reveal removed lamina of verfebra, the proliferated cohesed articular process, the plump yellow ligament flava and the bulging intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus tis-sues, the nerve root canal was depressed, to relieve thoroughly its oppression, dura mater and nerve root. Results The follow-up continued from 5 months to 36 months. The evaluation with Nakai scale revealed ex-cellent in 168 cases, good in 9 cases, fair in 6 cases. The rate of good results was 96.7%. Conclusions Totally 183 cases were treated with this procedure posterior microendoscropie discectomy shows minimal inva-sion, less blood loss and quick recovery. The stability of lumbar spine can be reserved. It is safe and effec-tive for treating lumbar disc herniation complicated with spinal stenesis.
