Controlled release of lidocaine hydrochloride from the surfactant-doped hybrid xerogels.

We investigate the controlled release of lidocaine hydrochloride from the doped silica-based xerogels. In the xerogel preparation, tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), methyltriethoxysilane (MTES), and propyltriethoxysilane (PTES) are used as precursors, and a nonionic surfactant Igepal CO 720 is used as a dopant. The experimental results suggest that the release of lidocaine hydrochloride can be easily controlled by partially substituting TEOS with the organosilanes, and/or by adding the dopant. Adding the organosilane precursors lowers the release of both the drug and the surfactant in the order of TEOS, MTES/TEOS, and PTES/TEOS xerogels. The release from the PTES/TEOS xerogels is much lower than that from the other xerogels. The release of lidocaine hydrochloride is obviously suppressed by the addition of Igepal CO 720, while the release of Igepal CO 720 is slightly promoted by the addition of the drug. The overall release process is found to be diffusion-controlled, and the release behaviors can be well explained by considering the effects of the textual properties of the xerogels and the interactions among the drug, the surfactant, and the xerogel matrices.     

对加强药品配送机构监督管理的思考

国家食品药品监督管理局在《关于全面开展加强农村药品监督网络建设促进农村药品供应网络建设工作的指导意见》中明确指出：“为配合药品配送、连锁进县到乡，各省（区、市）食品药品监督部门可以进行建立区域性药品配送站的研究和指导。在进行研究和探索过程中，鼓励将基层的药品批发企业改组成区域性药品配送站”。     

岗前标准预防教育对减少护生针刺伤的效果观察

岗前培训有助于提高护士技能[1]。医务人员由于职业原因引起可能致命感染(乙型肝炎、丙型肝炎、艾滋病),感染者多数为护士或临床实验工作者,暴露方式主要为暴露于病人的血液,多为针刺伤[2]。而实习护士自我防护意识不足,操作生疏,发生针刺伤比率大,约40.3%[3]。标准防护主张医护人员要严格执行消毒隔离制度和操作规程,充分利用各种屏障防护用具和设备,减少各种危险行为,最大限度地保护医护人员和病人安全。我院从2001年7月起对实习护生进行上岗前标准防护知识及操作培训,现报道如下。1材料与方法1.1研究对象2001年7月—2003年5月,来我院进行…     

Onychomycosis caused by Fusarium solani in a woman with diabetes

A case of untreated fusarial onychomycosis leading to serious consequences is reported. Fusarium solani is a widespread fungus and an occasional human pathogen. It usually invades rapidly in immunocompromised hosts, and often results in a poor outcome despite treatment. We report a woman with diabetes mellitus who had untreated fusarial infection of the nails, which developed into subcutaneous fusariosis, superinfected by bacteria, and then evolved into osteomyelitis that subsequently resulted in septic shock. Early management of mycotic nails in immunocompromised hosts is crucial to prevent life‐threatening disease.

Family-oriented nutrition intervention for a lipid clinic population

We have developed a unique, family-oriented approach to lowering plasma cholesterol concentrations in persons with familial hyperlipidemias. The approach includes individual clinic visits and group nutrition classes and uses dietary goals outlined in The New American Diet. A series of 13 nutrition classes is presented to small groups, usually composed of relatives from pedigrees with familial hypercholesterolemia or other familial hyperlipidemias. Dietary action goals, cooking demonstrations, food tasting, and finger-stick plasma cholesterol determinations are important components of the classes. Problem-solving discussion is encouraged in the group. Over the past 4 years, 143 hyperlipidemic individuals, along with at least 94 unaffected family members, have participated in 31 groups, which have met for at least six classes. Many clinic participants lower plasma cholesterol by 20% or more. Keys to the success of this program include emphasizing dietary therapy, using the family setting for nutrition intervention, providing hands-on experience with food and recipes, promoting problem solving for dietary action goals, measuring blood cholesterol during classes, and encouraging long-term follow-up for participants with physicians and dietitians.     

Characteristics of thyroidectomy in Taiwan.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Thyroidectomy is a common treatment for thyroid disorders in Taiwan, and constitutes a significant percentage of medical expenses. This study investigated the characteristics of thyroidectomy in Taiwan. METHODS: A total of 21 senior general surgeons from 16 medical centers and 5 regional hospitals participated. One surgeon from each hospital reviewed the hospital's medical records of thyroid operations performed in the year 2001. Medical records for 3846 thyroidectomies were retrospectively analyzed, including surgical indications and modalities, complications, pathology reports, and the use of antibiotics. RESULTS: Most of the patients were women (85%). Indications for surgery included proven malignancy (9%), suspicious malignancy (30%), evident compression symptoms (20%), hyperthyroidism (20%), and cosmetic reasons (12%). The majority of patients (78%) underwent a surgical procedure with lobectomy or bilateral thyroidectomy; 13% had unilateral partial thyroidectomy. Prophylactic antibiotics were administered in 46% of procedures, and continued postoperatively in 12%. Postoperative complications occurred in 12% of patients. Hypocalcemia was the most common complication (8%), and its incidence was significantly correlated with the frequency of total thyroidectomy (p < 0.01). Complete pathology reports for the thyroidectomized specimens were available in only 65% of the cases. The frequency of cosmetic reasons for surgery, unilateral subtotal resection, routine antibiotic administration, and incomplete pathology reports were significantly higher in regional hospitals than in medical centers. CONCLUSIONS: Reduction in the high rates of cosmetic reasons for surgery, unilateral partial thyroidectomy, incomplete pathology reports, and use of antibiotic prophylaxis are needed to improve the quality of thyroidectomy in Taiwan.
