Objective:To study the risk factors of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) in extremely preterm infants (EPI).Method:From July 2017 to April 2020, EPI (gestational age <28 weeks) admitted to the Department of Neonatology of our hospital were included and analyzed retrospectively. According to whether hsPDA existed or not, the infants were assigned into non-hsPDA group and hsPDA group. Demographic findings and possible risk factors of hsPDA were collected.The cumulative fluid overload (FO) within 3 days after birth was calculated. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to determine the risk factors of hsPDA.Result:A total of 79 infants with gestational age of (27.0±0.9) weeks and birth weight of (987±173)g were enrolled, including 23 cases in non-hsPDA group and 56 cases in hsPDA group. Univariate analysis showed that thrombocytopenia ( P=0.044), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) treated with pulmonary surfactant (PS) ( P=0.006) and high FO level ( P=0.002) were associated with hsPDA. Multivariate analysis showed that RDS treated with PS ( OR=5.933, 95% CI 1.360~25.883, P=0.018) and high FO level ( OR=1.261, 95% CI 1.063~1.496, P=0.008) were independent risk factors for hsPDA in EPIs. ROC curve analysis showed that the cut-off value of FO was -0.2%, with 85.7% sensitivity and 56.5% specificity distinguishing the presence of hsPDA (AUC=0.712, Youden index=0.422). Conclusion:High level of FO within the first 3 days of life and RDS treated with PS are independent risk factors for hsPDA in EPI. After PS treatment, hemodynamic changes of infants with RDS should be monitored closely. During early fluid management of EPI, FO should be strictly monitored to avoid high FO level.

Objective:To summarize the problems of nursing information system application in Special Ward and to explore the solutions.Methods:From January to February 2017, we summarized the problems of nursing information system application in Special Ward and analyzed the causes. From March 2017, we implemented the improvements, such as strengthening nursing training and quality control, working with doctors closely, improving the auditing ability to doctor's advice, double checking for doctor's advice, shift by words and building the ward oral drug registration. We compared the indexes of nursing quality before and after improvement.Results:After improvement, the time of daily computer operation by nurses reduced; the number of problematic doctor's advice found and corrected by nurses increased; the times of medication administration error prevention also increased; the differences were all statistical ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Improvements for nursing information system of Special Ward effectively improve nurses' working efficiency, prevent and reduce the nursing errors.

Objective To study the clinical application of proportional assisted ventilation (PAV) in the treatment of neonatal respiratory failure.Method From March 2011 to October 2013,a retrospective study was conducted on newborns receiving ventilation therapy for respiratory failure.The newborns were assigned into PAV group and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) group.Arterial blood pH 、partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2)、partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and oxygenation index (OI) were compared at the time before ventilation and 2 h,6 h,12 h,24 h after ventilation.The frequency of sedative usage and average time of ventilation between the two groups were compared.Result A total of 30 cases were enrolled in the PAV group and the SIMV group respectively.Before ventilation,no statically significant differences existed on blood pH[(7.13 ± 0.12)、(7.14 ±0.11)],PaO2[(41.1 ±8.9),(40.8±8.8) mmHg],PaCO2[(76.4±12.6),(73.2±13.5) mmHg]and OI between the two groups (P > 0.05).2 h after ventilation,the blood pH [(7.25 ± 0.17)、(7.23 ± 0.15)],PaO2 [(51.0 ± 5.6)、(48.6 ± 5.3) mmHg] and OI were significantly improved,while PaCO2 [(66.3 ± 8.7)、(64.0 ± 7.5) mmHg] decreased.Comparing with data before ventilation,those parameters were statistically improved at each time point after ventilation (P < 0.01).But no statistically differences existed between the two groups at the same time (P > 0.05).Sedatives were used (2.3 ± 1.2)times/case in PAV group and (3.9 ± 2.2) in SIMV group,with statistically differences between the two groups (P < 0.05).Average duration of ventilation were (5.1 ± 1.9) d in PAV group and (5.4 ± 2.1) d in SIMV group,with no statistically differences between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion PAV is very effective in treating the neonatal respiratory failure and worth spreading.

Objective To investigate the tubulocystic carcinoma (TC) of kidney in diagnosis and differential diagnosis,clinical and pathological features.Methods A case of TC was performed with HE and immunohistochemical staining,with review of the related literature.Results A man of 43 years old,who was found an occupying in the upper pole of the right kidney by B ultrasound,was performed ill-circumscribed of the right kidney.A gray solid ill-circumscribed mass was found within the renal parenchyma,which was sized of 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm × 1.0 cm.Microscopically,the tumor showed an invasive growth,and that it was composed of small tubular and vesicular structure closely spaced with slender fibrosis mesenchymal.The epithelial cells lining the tubules and cysts were flattened,cuboidal and hobnail cells,with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and obvious nucleolus of Fuhrman grade 3.The tumor showed positive of cytokeratin,CD10+++ and P504S+++,with low Ki-67 labeling index.Postoperative follow-up of 6 months,the patient showed no tumor recurrence and metastasis.Conclusions TC is a special subtype of renal cell carcinoma,with a tubular and cystic structure,high nuclear grade and rare mitotic.The differential diagnosis mainly includes other renal cystic lesions.The biological behavior of TC is indolent with less recurrence and distant metastasis.
