A design of ECG monitor was presented in this paper. It is based on the latest MCU and BLE4.0 technologies and can interact with multi-platform smart devices with extra low power consumption. Besides, a clinical expansion part can realize functions including displaying the real-time ECG and heart rate curve, reading abnormal ECG signals stored in the monitor, and setting alarm threshold. These functions are suitable for follow-up use.

Objective To discuss the long term clinical effect of ileal orthotropic neobladder.Methods From 1991 to 1998,79 patients,mean age 55(41~75)years,male 74,female 6,were followed up.The serum creatinine and urea,electrolytes,blood routine,B ultrasonic scan of the neobladder residual urine and IVU or MRU of the patients were followed up.The max transverse diameter of renal pelvis and the max verticaI/level diameter of neobladder were measured in 5,10 to 14,15 years of postoperative when IVU or MRU.All results of different time were compared by the multiple comparisons.The local or distant cancer recurrence and the complications of the operation Were evaluated. Results Sixty-four cases,58 male,6 famle,were long term followed up:mean time was 167 (range,121~216)months.Seven cases died of other diseases.Seven cases had pelvic recarrence.Two cases had urethral recurrence.Three cases died of tumor metastasis.One case had ureter recurrence.Forty-eight patients were alive more than 10 years.The value of the serum creatinine,urea,electrolytes and bloods routine of the patients were normal after 5,10 to 14 and 15 vears postoperative (P>0.05).The max transverse diameter of the renal pelvis in 5,10 to 14 and 15 years Dostoperative were 14.0 mm,14.1 mm and 13.7 mm,respectively,P>0.05.The max vertical/level diameter of the neobladder in 5,10 to 14,15 years of postoperative were 110.4 mm/90.4 mm,111.5 mm/95.3mm and 127.0 mm/97.0 mm,respectively,P>0.05.The residual urine of 5 cases was more than 50 ml and had not increased during follow up.Eight cases with neobladder stone were cured by the intracavitary lithothrypsis.Two cases with uretheral stricture were cured by the intracavitary therapy.Twelve cases of 14 cases with inguinal hernia were cured by reoperation,2 cases accepted conservative treatment.Only 17 cases had no complication involve of the cancer and the operation. Conclusion The upper urinary tract and neobladder of the ileal orthotopic neobladder could be stable for long time,the cure rate of tumor is satisfactory and the lifetime follow up is necessary.

With the continuous in-depth study of minimally invasive cardiac surgery(MICS), minimally invasive cardiac surgery in children has also been developed in this period, but there is still a certain gap compared with adults. Because of the large difference in body size and the low tolerance of surgery in children, minimally invasive cardiac surgery in children still has a short board on complex cardiac diseases. This article reviews several commonly used minimally invasive techniques: (1) small incision cardiac surgery; (2) thoracoscopic and robot-assisted cardiac surgery; (3) minimally invasive cardiopulmonary bypass(MiECC) and cardiac surgery to avoid cardiopulmonary bypass; (4) hybrid surgery and enhanced cardiac rehabilitation surgery(ERACS) in pediatric cardiac surgery and their application and research progress.

Open surgery is currently the gold standard for the treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm(TAAA), while endovascular aortic repair(EVAR) has also been widely carried out. Because it involves important branches supplying internal organs, the technical system for treating TAAA is particularly complex. However, with the advent of newer, low-cost, flexible stent systems, total endovascular repair techniques have become more feasible and attractive. For young and low-risk patients, the choice of open or endovascular treatment remains controversial. Despite the advantages of a minimally invasive procedure, EVAR carries a greater risk of spinal cord injury and may require secondary endovascular intervention to repair endoleak when its unique complication occurs, and the long-term durability after EVAR is not clear. This article reviews the open and endovascular treatment of TAAA, introduces the development of open surgery and endovascular repair, the advantages and disadvantages of various types of stents, and discusses how to select a more suitable surgical method for patients, providing clinicians with a treatment reference.

Objective To explore the risk factors of hidden blood loss after UKA.Methods A retrospec-tive study was conducted on 273 patients who underwent UKA from January 2015 to December 2016,including 79 males and 194 females,age between 46 to 87 years old,mean age(67.21± 8.23)years old. The clinical data were collected and the blood volume was calculated according to the Nadler formula. The Gross equation was used to calculate the blood loss and the amount of occult blood loss at 3 days after operation. The risk factors were analyzed statistically. Results The volume of hidden blood loss after operation was(75.36 ± 10.21)mL,and the volume of total blood lost after operation was(187.35± 60.31)mL.Sex,BMI and type of prosthesis were risk factors for hidden blood loss after UKA. Conclusions The volume of hidden blood loss after UKA was related to sex, BMI,and type of prosthesis. For the obese and male patients,we should actively take bleeding management and choose the type of prosthesis reasonably.

Objective:To explore the factors influencing the supportive communication ability of medical undergraduates, and to propose strategies to improve supportive communication.Methods:By cluster sampling, we selected 388 medical undergraduates of grades 2017 and 2018 from Harbin Medical University for a questionnaire survey on supportive communication, general self-efficacy, and health education abilities. SPSS 22.0 was used for descriptive statistical analysis. AMOS 22.0 was used to construct a structural equation model to verify the relationship between the three variables. Mediating effects were also tested.Results:The students showed good supportive communication ability, with a total score of (74.28±10.84) points. The general self-efficacy score was (27.81±5.58) points, and the total score of health education ability was (25.50±4.76) points. General self-efficacy had direct positive effects on supportive communication and health education abilities ( β=0.75, 0.31, both P<0.001). Health education ability had a direct positive effect on supportive communication ability ( β=0.14, P<0.001). Health education ability played a significant mediating role in the influence of general self-efficacy on supportive communication ability (standardized mediating effect value=0.042, P<0.01), with the mediating effect accounting for 5.1%. Conclusions:The health education competency of medical undergraduates can mediate the effect of general self-efficacy on supportive communication ability. By strengthening medical humanities education to increase general self-efficacy and also emphasizing the cultivation of health education competency, the supportive communication ability of students can be improved.
