Minimal residual disease (MRD), a crucial biomarker for assessing efficacy and predicting recurrence, refers to residual tumor cells remaining in the body of patients with hematological malignancies who achieved complete remission after treatment. This study aimed to conduct a retrospective analysis of the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and MRD monitoring of a pediatric patient with multiple acute B-lymphocytic leukemia relapses, alongside a review of relevant literature. In this case, Ig rearrangement based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) was more accurate in assessing the MRD level, compared with the traditional method of MRD detection, indicating the risk of earlier relapse and guided interventions in time. Additionally, NGS-MRD detected clonal evolution, providing new ideas to further investigate the intrinsic factors of disease development.

Objective To assess the application effect of reminder software for the management of indwelling catheter in catheter associated with urinary tract infection in emergency intensive care unit (EICU). Methods We conducted a comparative study among patients with catheter-associated urinary tract infection from January 2014 to December 2015 in emergency intensive care unit (EICU). By applying with reminder software, we assessed the omission rate of indwelling urethral catheterization management, the incidence rate of catheter associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI), the utilization rate of urinary tract intubation and the average time of indwelling urethral catheterization.Results By the application of reminder software, the omission rate of indwelling urethral catheterization management was decreased. The incidence rate of CAUTI declined from 9.16‰ to 1.90‰ (x2=4.843,P<0.05),while the utilization rate of urinary tract intubation declined from 73.60% to 60.67% (P<0.01), and the average time of catheterization also shortened from (10.21±2.28) days to (8.20±1.67) days (t=2.47,P<0.05).Conclusions Reminder software applied in the control of indwelling catheter related infections has achieved good effectiveness and it can be used widely in clinical work.

Objective To assess the application effect of the catheter management software on the management of Indwelling urinary catheter in the Emergency intensive care unit (EICU). Methods A prospective control study of targeted surveillance of catheter-associated urinary tract infection was conducted from January 2014 to December 2015 in EICU. The patients were divided into two groups. The patients in control group (131 patients) were treated from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014 and received routine catheter management, and the patients in test group (135 patients) were treated from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015, and received catheter management by software. The catheter management software was developed and applied, and the process specification which collaborated with the software was established. The quality of the catheter management including the omission rate of the catheter management, the rate of urinary catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) and the rate of catheter used etc were evaluated after the software's application. Results Through software applications, the omission rate of the catheter management, the omission rate of urine drainage bag replacementand the omission rate of urinary catheter replacement in test group were significantly lower than those in control group:0 vs. 36.64%(48/131), 0 vs. 15.27%(20/131) and 0 vs. 9.92%(13/131), P<0.01 or<0.05. The performance rate of catheter daily management in test group was significantly higher than that in control group: 99.26%(134/135) vs. 64.12%(84/131), P<0.01. The rate of CAUTI in test group was significantly lower than that in control group: 1.90‰ vs. 9.16‰, χ2=4.843, P=0.028. The rate of catheter used in test group was significantly lower than that in control group: 60.74%(82/135) vs. 73.28%(96/131), P<0.01. Conclusions The development and the establishment of the management software can improve the rate of implement, and declinethe rate of CAUTI.
