Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

[Objective] To analyze the influencing factors of repeat blood donor lapsing using a zero-inflated poisson regression model (ZIP). [Methods] The blood donation behavior of 12 498 whole blood donors from 2020 was tracked until December 31, 2023. The factors influencing the frequency of blood donations in a given year was analyzed using ZIP, and donors with 0 blood donation in that year were considered to have lapsed. The changes in relevant influencing factors associated with each blood donation were measured and modeled for analysis. [Results] The zero-inflated part of ZIP showed that the risk of lapsing of male blood donors was 2.24 times that of female blood donors (OR 95% CI:1.864-2.696, P<0.001); the risk of lapsing of the 35-44 age group and over 45 age group was respectively 40% (OR 95% CI:0.455-0.790, P<0.001) and 61%(OR 95% CI:0.268-0.578, P<0.001) lower than that of the under 25 age group; the risk of lapsing for those who have donated blood twice and ≥3 times was respectively 50% (OR 95% CI:0.405-0.609, P<0.001) and 81% (OR 95% CI:0.154-0.225, P<0.001) lower than that of first-time donors; the risk of lapsing of those with junior high or high school education was 1.2 times that of those with a college degree or higher (OR 95% CI:1.033-1.384, P<0.05); the risk of lapsing for the divorced group was 2.02 times that of the married group (OR 95% CI:1.445-2.820, P<0.001); the risk of lapsing for those with an income (Yuan) of 10 000 to 50 000, 50 000 to 100 000 and more than 100 000 was respectively 0.67 (OR 95% CI:0.552-0.818, P<0.001), 0.72 (OR 95% CI:0.591-0.884, P=0.002) and 0.67 (OR 95% CI:0.535-0.834, P<0.001) times that of those with an income (Yuan) of less than 10 000. The results of the Poisson part are consistent with the results of the zero-inflated part in terms of age and education level. [Conclusion] Blood donor lapsing is overall related to factors such as gender, age, donation frequency, education, marital status and family income. It's essential to care for those blood donors prone to lapse to retain more regular blood donors.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation during the perioperative period.Methods:This retrospective study included 14 patients with end-stage heart failure who underwent LVAD implantation in the department of intensive care medicine of Nanjing Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from February 2022 to March 2023, including 12 males and 2 females patients, the mean age was (57.6±9.8)years old. All patients were implanted with Corheart 6 implantable left ventricular assist system, did not use other mechanical assisted circulatory devices. The clinical data of enrolled patients were collected, and the clinical characteristics and prognosis during ICU treatment were analyzed.Results:Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) was the most common primary cause of heart failure. The results of transthoracic echocardiography showed that the left ventricular ejection fraction (0.297±0.074 vs. 0.238±0.064, P=0.031) of patients was significantly increased, while the left ventricular end diastolic diameter[69.0(65.8, 74.3)mm vs. 76.5(72.8, 83.0)mm, P=0.003]and systolic end systolic diameter[61.5(53.7, 65.3)mm vs. 68.3(63.8, 71.9)mm, P=0.005]were significantly decreased post LVAD implantation as compared to before LVAD implantation. Within one week after implantation, there was no significant difference in LVAD rotational speed, flow rate, and pulsation index ( P>0.05). During ICU treatment, dobutamine (13 cases) was the most commonly used vasoactive agent. 9 patients used phosphodiesterase Ⅲ inhibitors for perioperative pulmonary hypertension. Targeted management of volume and pressure indicators was conducted for enrolled patients to prevent postoperative right heart failure and to reduce right heart burden. Within 72 hours after LVAD implantation, the average pulmonary artery pressure of patients was 24 (22, 26) mmHg to 26 (21, 28)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), while the fluid balance was(-581±778)ml to(-1 209±1 134)ml. All enrolled patients survived to 28 days after LVAD implantation. The length of stay in the ICU was (8.0±1.8) days and the total length of hospital stay was 33 (29, 41)days, while the time of mechanical ventilation was 8 (5, 28)h. Conclusion:LVAD implantation can help improve left ventricular systolic function, prolong survival time so as to serve as an important means of terminal treatment or bridging therapy for heart transplantation of patients with end-stage heart failure. To strengthen the perioperative hemodynamic regulation and maintain the cardiac function of patients with LVAD implantation is the important purposes of ICU postoperative management.

Objective:To investigate the application value of laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 9 pairs of donors and recipients who underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplanta-tion in People′s Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January to April 2024 were collected. Of the donors, there were 8 males and 1 female, aged (39±18)years and with body mass index (BMI) of (20±4)kg/m 2. Of the recipients, there were 7 males and 2 females, aged (41±13)years and with BMI of (24±4)kg/m 2. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical conditions. Of the 9 recipients, 7 recipients underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation successfully, 1 recipient with severe portal hypertension converted to open surgery with reverse L-shaped incision due to the hemorrhage during the dissection of the first hepatic portal after completing liver mobilization under laparoscopy, and 1 recipient underwent trans-umbilical extension incision through the middle of the epigastric region due to the limited space for operation in the implantation of the donor liver. The total operation time for 7 recipients who successfully underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation was (648±31)minutes, with a time of anhepatic phase of (57±5)minutes, the volume of intraoperative blood loss of (1 322±627)mL, the donor liver mass of (1 195±232)g, and the ratio of donor liver mass to recipient body mass of 1.86%±0.42%. The operation time for laparoscopic liver dissection and porta hepatis dissection in 8 recipients during surgery was (212±35)minutes. (2) Postoperative conditions. All 9 recipients recovered smoothly after surgery, without any vascular or biliary related complications, and the surgical incision recovered well. The duration of postoperative hospital stay of 7 recipients who successfully underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation was (14.2±2.0)days. (3) Follow-up. All 9 recipients were followed up for 3 months after surgery. During the follow-up period, there was no vascular or bile duct related complication.Conclusion:Laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation can be applied to recipients who meet surgical conditions and achieve good short-term clinical efficacy.

Objective To explore left ventricular longitudinal systolic function changes during perioperative period of coronary artery bypass graft(CABG).Methods Totally 41 patients with confirmed coronary artery disease(CAD)who underwent CABG were prospectively enrolled.The preoperative left ventricular global longitudinal strain(GLS),as well as GLS on the day of CABG,on the 3rd and 7th day postoperation were measured.According to preoperative left ventricular GLS,the patients were divided into 3 groups,i.e.normal group(group A,GLS≤-18.1％,n=6),mildly decreased group(group B,-18.1％＜GLS≤-14.0％,n=22)and severely decreased group(group C,GLS＞-14.0％,n=13).Repeated measures analysis of variance,generalized estimating equation and multiple comparisons were used to analyze left ventricular systolic function in different perioperative time points.Results No significant difference of GLS was found among different time points during perioperative period of CABG in group A and C(all adjusted P＞0.05).In group B,GLS on postoperative days were lower than that before CABG(all adjusted P＜0.001),and the lowest value was observed on the day of CABG postoperatively,while no significant difference of GLS was found between the 3rd and 7th day postoperation(adjusted P=1.00).Compared with those before CABG,the longitudinal strain(LS)of basal segment on the day of CABG postoperatively and 3rd day postoperation,of middle segment and apical segment at all postoperative time points were lower(all adjusted P＜0.05),while of the apical segment on the day of CABG postoperatively decreased most obviously.No significant difference of LS of each ventricular segment was found between the 3rd nor the 7th day postoperation(all adjusted P＞0.05).Conclusion GLS decreased significantly on the day of CABG postoperatively but partially recovered within the following week in CAD patients with mildly decreased preoperative GLS.CABG had the most pronounced effect on LS of apical segment in left ventricle.

Objective:To comprehensively evaluate the clinical application status of oral movement intervention in preterm infants, analyze the obstacles in the process of clinical application of the best evidence and formulate countermeasures, so as to provide reference for clinical evidence transformation.Methods:Based on the theoretical guidance of the "Clinical Application Model of Evidence" of the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Evidence-Based Health Care Center in Australia, 12 pieces of the best evidence for oral movement intervention in premature infants were included, and 13 review indicators were formulated. From May to July 2021, a status review was conducted in Department of Neonatology in Suzhou Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University. The Ottawa Model of Research Use (OMRU) was used to analyze the barriers and facilitators in the process of evidence application and formulate effective intervention strategies and action plans.Results:Among the 13 reviewed indicators, only 2 items had a compliance rate of 100%, 2 items had a compliance rate of more than 60%, 6 items had a compliance rate of less than 60%, and 3 items had a compliance rate of 0. The main obstacle factors were lack of standardized process and assessment tools, lack of oral motor intervention related knowledge and training for preterm infants, increased clinical workload due to evidence transformation and the low level of knowledge and action among medical staff. The main promoting factors were support from managers for the development and reform of evidence-based learning, good learning atmosphere for doctors and nurses, departments with material and hardware conditions for evidence transformation, effective evidence, and parents' willingness to accept the reform. Through analysis, countermeasures were drawn up to formulate feasible and suitable standardized procedures and introduce assessment tools. Managers formulated and implemented incentive policies, adopted various training methods, strengthened quality supervision in the process of evidence transformation, timely gave feedback of progress results and improved human resource allocation.Conclusions:There is a certain gap between the best evidence of oral movement intervention in premature infants and the current clinical nursing practice. It is necessary to formulate corresponding countermeasures according to the obstacle factors and promoting factors, promote the evidence transformation and constantly promote the evidence-based practice of oral movement intervention in premature infants.

Objective:To analyze the predictive value of enhanced MRI in the outcome of prolapsed and sequestrated lumbar disc herniation through a retrospective analysis.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the data of 64 patients with prolapsed and sequestrated lumbar disc herniation from January 2015 to December 2018, including 38 males and 26 females; age 35.72±12.44 years (range, 22-64 years) ; 43 cases of prolapsed type, 21 cases of sequestrated type. Conservative treatment was the first choice for all patients, in case of surgical indications during the treatment, percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy or fenestration discectomy will be performed. Enhanced MRI was performed at the first and last inspections, the volume of the protrusion, the thickness of rim enhancement (Tr), and the extent of rim enhancement (Er) were measured and calculated at the same time. According to the ring around the protrusion, the size of the rim-enhancement area was divided into type I-III; then compared the relationship between the rim-enhancement signal differentiation and the resorption rate of protrusions, and the correlation between Tr, Er values and the resorption rate of protrusions during the initial inspection.Results:Among the 64 patients, 42 patients completed conservative treatment, and 22 received surgical treatment. According to the rim-enhancement signal differentiation, 23 cases were treated conservatively for type I, 3 cases were treated by surgery; 16 cases were treated for type II conservatively, 7 cases were treated by surgery; 3 cases were treated for type III conservatively, and 12 cases were treated by surgery. All patients were followed up for 12 to 34 months. Among 42 conservatively treated patients, The volume of the protrusion before treatment was 2 645.67±690.86 mm 3, and the volume of the protrusion after treatment was 842.76±573.35 mm 3. The volume of protrusions before and after treatment was statistical significance ( t=11.897, P<0.001), Tr was 1.38±0.83 mm, and Er was 73.08%±34.39%, the resorption rate of protrusions was 65.10%±24.50%, and 39 cases (92.86%, 39/42) reached the standard for protrusion resorption (resorption rate ≥30%); 23 cases of type I , the resorption rate was 76.54%±18.62%; 16 cases of type II had an resorption rate of 56.81%±21.44%; 3 cases of type III had an resorption rate of 21.58%±12.19%. The resorption rate of type III were compared by single factor analysis of variance, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=12.885, P<0.001); 32 cases of both type I and II (82.05%, 32/39) had significant resorption (resorption rate ≥50%), and no case of type Ⅲ had significant resorption, comparing with type I and II, the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.010); Tr was positively correlated with resorption rate ( r=0.569, P<0.001), Er was positively correlated with resorption rate ( r=0.677, P<0.001). Conclusion:Under close clinical observation, parts of the prolapsed or sequestrated lumbar disc herniations can be conservatively treated, and the herniated disc can be resorption in many people and the clinical symptoms were alleviated. Rim-enhancement signal differentiation by enhanced MR has a better predictive value for the outcome of the herniation, type I is more prone to resorption, preferred conservative treatment, type Ⅲ is not easy to resorption, preferred surgery treatment, and the higher thickness of rim enhancement, the greater extend the rim-enhancement, the more prone to resorption phenomenon.
