In order to analyze and judge the condition of critical patients in PICU,and provide an objective basis for the treatment,invasive monitoring of physiological functions as a technology of understanding organs state is particularly important in clinical practice.Due to organ failure,some children require in vitro device to completely or partly replace organ function for a certain time,which can save and restore organ function.In order to reduce the incidence of iatrogenic damage,risk awareness and active prevention are required during these invasive procedures and organ replacement.

The cardiovascular system plays a key role in sepsis,and septic myocardial depression is a common finding associated with increased morbidity and mortality.Myocardial depression during sepsis is not clearly defined,but it can perhaps be best described as a global (systolic and diastolic)dysfunction of both the left and right sides of the heart.The pathogenesis of septic myocardial depression involves a complex mix factor of genetic,molecular,metabolic, and structural.Now,the research status on pathogenesis of myocardial depress in sepsis was reviewed.

0.05).The jitter(q=27.885),shimmer(q=35.839),NNE(q=5.817),and harmonic noise ratio(HNR,q=6.383)decreased significantly at 1 month after the operation(P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the therapeutic effect of modified uvulopaoatopharyngoplasty(UPPP)on obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).METHODS Sixty eight cases of OSAHS were treated with modified UPPP.During operations,the uvula was preserved,the fat tissues of space veli palatine were dissected,palatoplasty and pharyngoplasty were performed.All the patients were followed up for over 6 months.Polysomnography(PSG)was monitored again one year after operation.RESULTS The symptoms of dyspnea,snoring,sleepiness were disappeared or improved obviously after 6 months.The effective rate was 95.6% at one year after operation.CONCLUSION The modified UPPP not only extends the oropharyngeal cavity,but also avoids postoperative complications and improve the effectiveness of UPPP.

Objectives To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of late-onset group B streptococcal (GBS) sepsis. Methods From Jan. 2007 to Dec. 2011, iffteen neonates diagnosed with late onset GBS sepsis at discharge from NICU were retrospectively analyzed, meanwhile, thirty-four neonates diagnosed with late onset non-GBS Gram-positive bacteria sepsis at discharge were selected as controls during the same period. Results There were signiifcant differences in occurrence rates of shortness of breath, convulsion and apnea between late onset non-GBS sepsis group and late onset GBS sepsis group (P<0.05). The percentages of neonates with white blood cell count (CSF)>100×106/L, high-sensitivity C-reaction protein (hsCRP)>100 mg/L and glucose in CSF<3.11 mmol/L in late onset GBS sepsis group were higher than those in late onset non-GBS sepsis group (P<0.05). GBS was sensitive to penicillin, ampicillin, ceftriaxone, piperacillin/tazobactam, levolfoxacin and vancomycin. The rates of GBS resistance to erythromycin and gentamycin were both 87.5%. There were signiifcant differences in occurrence rates of meningitis, hydrocephalus and ependymitis between late onset GBS sepsis group and late onset non-GBS sepsis group (P<0.05), while no difference in mortality was found between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions The late onset GBS sepsis is in-sidious, atypical, with many complications and sequelae. It is important for the suspicious neonates to use effective antibiotics as early as possible.

Objective To compare the effects of nitinol alloy memorial stent with silastic tube in treating the stenosis of the rabbit.Methods 16 rabbits with external ear canal(EEC) stenosis were randomly divided into two groups.One group was implanted with skin on the EEC wound while the other not.By self-comparison method nitinol alloy memorial stem was implanted in a rabbit's one ear and the silastic tube in the other.After days 5,15,30,and 60 later,the diameters of the external ear canal (with two materials planted) were measured respectively in the skin-planting group.In the naked group scar tissues were harvested and tested separately according to the planting material.HE coloration were used to study fibroblast hyperplasty while RT-PCR were applied to detecting the TGFβ1mRNA expression.The two brackets were compared according to their effect to scar hyperplasty.Results The EEC diameters using nitinol alloy memorial stem were found more spacious than using silastic tube.HE coloration showed the fibroblast hyperplasia was more mitigatory by using the nitinol alloy memorial stent.RT-PCR also found the TGFβ1mRNA expression was low by using same material.Conclusion The nitinol alloy memorial stent shows obvious superiority over silastic tube in external ear canal stenosis therapy.

Objective To investigate the application of blood purification for critical disease with non-renal indications in PICU. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 10 critical disease cases with non-renal indications in PICU admitted from Jan to Dec 2009. Five cases were with acute liver failure,2 with autoimmune disease (1 with Guillaln-Barre syndrome, 1 with systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis with macrophage activation syndrome) ,2 with severe sepsis,one with metabolic diseases. Results Four cases were treated with plasma exchange combined with continuous veno-venous hemmofiltration. Three cases were treated with continuous veno-venous hemmofiltration. Three cases were treated with plasma exchange.Conclusion CBP is an effective and safe method in the treatment of critical diseases with non-renal indications in PICU.

Objective To investigate the application of continuous blood purification in the children with critical diseases. Methods Eighteen critical patients aged 1 ～ 15 years in PICU underwent continuous blood purification(CBP). Fourteen with acute renal failure (ARF) were treated with continuous veno-venous hemmofiltration(CVVH) ,2 with Guillain-Barre syndrome and 2 with Raye's syndrome were treated with plasma exchange(PE). The changes of clinical symptoms, blood biochemistry , blood gas, and oxygenation were analyzed before and after CBP. Results After CVVH treatment, the BUN and creatinine of 14 patients with ARF were decreased from (48.6 ± 14. 8) mmol/L to(28. 9 ±5.4) mmol/L and (634. 3 ±258. 2) μ mol/L to (318.4 ± 143.5) μmol/L,K+ and pH of serum were maintained in the normal range,oxygenation was significantly improved. Breathing difficulties and muscle strength in 2 patients with GBS were ameliorated and successfully weaned from ventilator after PE. Serum ALT,AST and ammonia of 2 cases with Raye's syndrome decreased significantly and they discharged after comprehensive treatment including PE. Bleeding in puncture region were found in 3 patients, hypothermia in 2 patients. During the treatment, vital signs of patients were stable,blood pressure and pulse were not fluctuated. Conclusion CBP is an effective and safe method in the treatment of critical diseases in children.

Objective To put forward the prevention advice on foreign body suction,and to discuss the effica-cy,safety and application experience of flexible bronchoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of tracheobronchial foreign bodies in children. Methods The treatment experience of 38 cases for airway foreign body removal with flexible bron-choscopy and granulation tissue proliferation in Argon plasma coagulation ( APC ) ( argon knife ) combining carbon dioxide( CO2 ) cryotherapy in Bayi Children′s Hospital Affiliated to General Hospital of Beijing Military Command from January 2013 to December 2014 were reviewed,and the clinical data including age,gender,treatment time for inhaled foreign body,clinical and X-ray manifestations,location of the foreign body,treatment with bronchoscopy with APC and cryotherapy,complications and outcomes were analyzed. Results There were 38 cases of patients including 31 male (81. 6%) and 7 female(18. 4%),aged from 10 months to 14 years old,with mean age 28. 5 months;among them there were 30 cases with definite history of foreign body,accounting for 78. 9%;the most common clinical symptom was cough among the cases,accounting for 84. 3%;X ray showed 15 cases with ipsilateral lung atelectasis,accounting for 39. 5%, emphysema in 17 cases,accounting for 44. 7%,pneumonia change in 6 cases,accounting for 15. 8%,there were 11 ca-ses who had lung computerized tomography examination when coming to the hospital,and only 1 case could be seen to have foreign body shadow;microscopic examination found that inhaled foreign body in the right bronchus accounted for 57. 9%,and peanut was the main foreign body inhalation in this group;only 4 cases(10. 5%) had definite diagnosis and foreign body removal within 24 h after foreign body aspiration,moreover,34 cases(89. 5%) with foreign body aspi-ration got the diagnosis and treatment after 24 h;crying was the primary inducement for inhaled foreign body. All the 38 cases of children with inhaled foreign body experienced removal under flexible bronchoscopy. There were 19 cases (50. 0%) who had granulation tissue proliferation around the foreign body,among which 5 cases of foreign body was wrapped by the proliferation of granulation tissue,with APC dealing with the granulation tissue of foreign body surface to remove foreign body after exposure,then giving CO2 cryotherapy. Nevertheless,there were 9 cases of foreign body who had granulation tissue but was not wrapped,receiving CO2 cryotherapy directly after the foreign body removal. One case of this group had bradycardia during the surgery,and 2 cases had postoperative bleeding,but there was no death cases with foreign bodies removal. Conclusions Education is the key to prevent foreign body aspiration in infants under 3 years old. Flexible bronchoscopy is safe to remove foreign bodies from the respiratory tract and has fewer complications, so it is one of the alternative methods in diagnosis and treatment of foreign body inhalation.
