Objective: To investigate the actualities of service in Outpatient Pharmacy and Emergency Pharmacy. Methods: With queuing theory of operational research and data statistics, the specialities and varities of service in both Pharmacies were investigated before and after the application of computer network. Results: (1)The distribution of the patients number arriving the Pharmacies was unequal.(2) The time of service was extended after using network.(3)The average individual time of service in Emergency Pharmacy was 74 s, and 48 s in Outpatient Pharmacy. The reasons for the average individual time of service in Emergency Pharmacy more than that in Outpatient Pharmacy was related to the formulation of drugs in 2 pharmacies and the number of drugs on prescriptions. (4)The number of windows for service should be increased in Emergency Pharmacy after using network. Conclusion: Operational research and data statistics will provide the data assisting the manager in making decisions. [

Objective To assess the effect of ultrasound contrast agent SonoVue on the dimensions and systolic function of left and right ventricle in pigs. Methods Sixteen pigs were randomly assigned to two groups. Intravenous injection of 1 ml of SonoVue were given in study group, and repeated 20 min later. The control group was given the same doses of saline. Before and after the administration of contrast agent, the end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD, RVEDD). end-systolic dimension ( LVESD, RVESD) and fractional shortening(LVFS,RVFS) of left and right ventricle were measured. The time to reach the extreme value of these parameters and the time to return to the baseline were recorded. Results There was no significant difference regarding the parameters at baseline between the two groups. After injection of SonoVue,RVEDD significantly increased from (25. 88 ± 1. 38) mm at baseline to its maximum of (33. 26 ± 0. 99)mm( P < 0. 05). Accordingly,RVFS significantly increased from (26. 90 ± 1. 92) % to (33. 92 ± 2. 53) % ( P <0. 05). Meanwhile,LVEDD remarkably decreased from (38.10 ± 1. 39)mm at baseline to its minimum of (26.25 ± 0. 65)mm( P <0. 05) and LVFS remarkably decreased from (36. 24 ± 1. 93) % to (29.13 ± 3.00) % ( P < 0. 05). There was no change in the control group after administration of the saline. When SonoVue was given repeatedly, the maximum RVEDD and RVFS was (29. 98 ± 1. 23) mm and (31. 09 + 1.90) % , respectively, which had less increase compared to the first time. Minimum LVEDD and LVFS was (31. 91 ± 1, 64)mm and (32. 17 ± 2. 31)%,respectively,with less decrease compared with which at first injection. It took (10. 15±0. 59) min for the right and left ventricle to reach the extreme value and (9.00± 0. 56) min to return to the baseline at the first injection. The time used for the right and left ventricle to reach its peak change and back to baseline after second injection of SonoVue were shorter [(8.73± 0.55) min and (6.89± 0.43) min, respectively,both P <0.05]. Conclusions Administration of SonoVue was associated with acute, transient dilation of right ventricle and compression of left ventricle. The influence of SonoVue on the right and left ventricle became less at it second injection.

Objective To study the influence of different microembolism on left ventricular systolic synchronism in pigs by detecting the real-time dypyridamole stress contrast echocardiography (RT-MCE).Methods Eighteen miniature pigs were randomly divided into three groups and underwent microembolization injection procedure through the middle of anterior descending coronary artery with different numbers of microsphere injection,as:group A(dosage 50 thousands,3 pigs),group B (dosage 120 thousands,8 pigs) and group C (dosage 150 thousands,7 pigs).The peak values and the time-to-peak circumferential strain(Circ.Strain),radial velocity (Radial Vel.) and radial strain (Radial Strain) were obtained both at mitral valve level and papillary muscle level at left ventricle short axis views using two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging(STI)analyzed by Philips Q-Lab 8.1 workshop,respectively.Results No significant difference in the presence of contraction synchrony was observed using RT-MCE.The time-to-peak Circ.Strain of microembolism related segments were prolonged at 1 week after microembolism detecting with dypyridamole stress RT-MCE (P＜0.05,both intro-group and inter-group).While time-to-peak radial strain were extended since 6 hours after the intervention to 1 week after the procedure.Conclusions Dypyridamole stress RT-MCE can be used to measure the myocardial perfusion accurately.The elongation of time-to-peak circ.strain and radial strain were developed with time in microembolism related segments.

Objective Myocardial bridging is a congenital anomaly.However,little data is available for patients with myocardial bridging (MB) associated with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).The goals of this study are to evaluate characteristics of MB in patients with AMI.Methods From March 1999 to February 2006,137 patients with both MB and AMI,were identified by coronary angiography,including 117 men and 20 women with an average age of 60.77±12.01 years (range 30-83 years) were enrolled in the present study.Results There were 119 patients with MB at the middle segment of left anterior descending artery (LAD),15 patients at distal segment of LAD,2 patients at middle segment of left circumflex (LCX),and 1 at the proximal segment of the obtuse marginal branch (OM) of LCX.There are 36 patients with non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTEAMI),38 patients with anterior ST elevation AMI (STEAMI),40 patients with inferior STEAMI and 23 patients with inferior-posterior STEAMI.Risk factors such as hypertension,diabetes,hyperlipidemia and smoking were not different among four groups.Patients with anterior AMI included 8 patients who showed no stenosis at the segment of MB.Conclusion Patients with MB and ST elevation AMI were mainly inferior AMI.MB might be one of the causes of AMI.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of post-operative delirium (POD) in middle-aged and elderly patients in intensive care unit (ICU) and construct risk prediction model for it.Methods A total of 112 middle-aged and elderly postoperative patients in the ICU of Lu'an Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January, 2018 to February, 2021 were selected. On the second day after the operation, they were transferred to ICU, and assessed with the Confusion AssessmentMethod for Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU). The patients were divided into delirium group (n = 52) and non-delirium group (n = 60) according to assessment. Univariate analysis was used to compare the differences in clinical data between the two groups, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent influencing factors to construct risk prediction model. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate prediction performance. Results Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score (APACHE II score) (OR = 1.424, 95%CI 1.204 to 1.685, P < 0.001), ICU sleep quality score (OR = 1.432, 95%CI 1.159 to 1.770, P < 0.001), and postoperative oxygenation index ≤ 300 (OR = 4.485, 95%CI 1.644 to 12.240, P = 0.001) were independent influencing factors of postoperative delirium in ICU. The prediction model was: logit(P) = -11.381+0.354X1 (APACHE II score, cut-off value 16)+0.359X2 (ICU sleep quality score, cut-off value 13)+1.501X3 (postoperative oxygenation index ≤ 300), with the sensitivity and specificity of 79.2% and 79.7% respectively. The area under the ROC curve was 0.866 (95%CI 0.801 to 0.930), more than those of the factors alone (P < 0.05). Conclusion The prediction model based on Logistic regression can predict the occurrence of postoperative delirium in middle-aged and elderly patients in ICU.
