危重新生儿应激性高血糖及其预后分析

目的探讨危重新生儿预后与应激性高血糖之间的关系。方法对85例危重新生儿入院后即采静脉血用葡萄糖氧化酶法测血糖,血糖>7mmol/L诊断为高血糖,此后应用微量血糖仪进行动态监测。结果入院时高血糖者56例,占65.9%,治愈组与死亡组的血糖值分别为7.38±2.70、17.8±8.50mmol/L(P<0.01);无脏器功能衰竭、单器官及多器功能衰竭患儿的血糖分别为6.02±2.82、10.8±3.85、14.1±4.80mmol/L(P<0.01)。高血糖与器官功能衰竭关系密切,血糖越高,病情越严重,预后越差。结论危重新生儿血糖水平可作为预后判断的一项依据。     

Public Attitudes Toward Incentives for Organ Donation: A National Study of Different Racial/Ethnic and Income Groups

Attitudes toward monetary and nonmonetary incentives for living (LD) and deceased donation (DD) among the U.S. general public and different racial/ethnic and income groups have not been systematically studied. We studied attitudes via a telephone questionnaire administered to persons aged 18-75 in the continental United States. Among 845 participants (85% of randomized households), less than one-fifth participants were in favor of incentives for DD (range 7-17%). Most persons were in favor of reimbursement of medical costs (91%), paid leave (84%) and priority on the waiting list (59%) for LD. African Americans and Hispanics were more likely than Whites to be in favor of some incentives for DD. African Americans were more likely than Whites to be in favor of monetary incentives for LD. Whites with incomes less than $20 000 were more likely than Whites with greater incomes to be in favor of reimbursement for deceased donors' funeral expenses or medical expenses. The U.S. public is not generally supportive of incentives for DD, but is supportive of limited incentives for LD. Racial/ethnic minorities are more supportive than Whites of some incentives. Persons with low income may be more accepting of certain monetary incentives.     

Prognostic factors for early clinical failure in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia

For patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), clinical response during the first days of treatment is predictive of clinical outcome. As risk assessments can improve the efficiency of pneumonia management, a prospective cohort study to assess clinical, biochemical and microbiological predictors of early clinical failure was conducted in patients with severe CAP (pneumonia severity index score of >90 or according to the American Thoracic Society definition). Failure was assessed at day 3 and was defined as death, a need for mechanical ventilation, respiratory rate >25/min, PaO2 <55 mm Hg, oxygen saturation <90%, haemodynamic instability, temperature >38 degrees C or confusion. Of 260 patients, 80 (31%) had early clinical failure, associated mainly with a respiratory rate >25/minute (n = 34), oxygen saturation <90% (n = 28) and confusion (n = 20). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, failure was associated independently with altered mental state (OR 3.19, 95% CI 1.75-5.80), arterial PaH <7.35 mm Hg (OR 4.29, 95% CI 1.53-12.05) and PaO2 <60 mm Hg (OR 1.75, 95% CI 0.97-3.15). A history of heart failure was associated inversely with clinical failure (OR 0.30, 95% CI 0.10-0.96). Patients who failed to respond had a higher 28-day mortality rate and a longer hospital stay. It was concluded that routine clinical and biochemical information can be used to predict early clinical failure in patients with severe CAP.

胸腰椎骨折术后内固定松动、断裂的原因及预防

目的 探讨椎弓根螺钉系统用于胸腰椎骨折术后出现松动、断裂的原因，并提出相应的预防对策。方法 12例胸腰椎骨折术后内固定失效病例，采用RF系统3例，AF系统9例。均未行植骨融合，AF系统中未按要求安装横连结3例，术后伤椎前缘高度平均恢复至正常的85．2％。结果 术后8—21个月出现棒断裂4例，螺钉断裂3例，钉帽松动5例。结论 内固定物的自身问题、术者的经验欠缺及操作不规范是胸腰椎骨折术后椎弓根螺钉系统松动、断裂的原因，但伤椎骨结构未能得到良好重建及术后椎间盘退变可能是其更重要的因素。因此重视内固定物的选择、加强规范操作，强调对损伤椎体及椎间盘的全面处理是预防内固定失效的有效措施。     

外伤性股动脉栓塞继发肾功能衰竭32例的综合治疗

目的 探讨外伤性股动脉栓塞后继发急性肾功能衰竭的临床综合治疗。方法 对32例外伤性股动脉栓塞术后继发急性肾功能衰竭病例均进行急诊手术切开取栓、血管吻合术，术后均予以综合治疗。结果住院时间7天-3个月，平均41d。最终截肢6例，死亡2例，24例修复成功。结论 术前准确判断预后，正确选择手术方式、术中筋膜减张性切开、术后及时清除坏死组织、术后利尿合剂应用和及时必要的血透是影响外伤性股动脉栓塞保肢术后急性肾功能衰竭预后的重要因素。     

早期扩髓髓内钉固定治疗合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折

目的探讨合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折早期扩髓及髓内钉固定是否增加并发症及死亡率. 方法采用回顾性对比分析,依据下列标准选择病例(1) 年龄在17～65岁;(2) 必须有胸部损伤[简明损伤定级(AIS)≥2], 且损伤严重度评分(ISS)≥16;(3) 住院时间≥48 h;(4) 病史中无明显影响全身状况的疾病, 如糖尿病, 慢性心、肺、肾功能不全等;(5) 有股骨干骨折, 且进行了扩髓髓内钉固定, 不含钢板、外固定支架或牵引及石膏固定者.并按受伤至手术时间划分为两组, A组为<24 h手术者(早期扩髓组), B组为≥24 h手术者(延期扩髓组),将两组间合并伤情况、ISS、住院时间、ICU时间、并发症、死亡及合并休克情况进行比较. 结果有96例符合上述标准, 其中A组57例, B组39例,经统计学处理, 两组间仅在股骨开放性骨折发生率(A组53%,B组31%,χ2=4.496, P<0.05)、合并休克率(A组51%, B组28%,χ2=4.895, P<0.05 )及住院时间[A组为(17.5±6.5)d, B组为(31.5±9.5)d,t=8.599, P<0.001]上差异有显著性意义和非常显著性意义, 而两组并发症发生率和死亡率等方面比较, 差异无显著性意义(P>0.05). 结论在合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折中,只要能控制休克,保证生命体征平稳,对股骨干骨折行早期扩髓髓内钉固定不增加患者的并发症发生率及死亡率,并可促进患者早日康复,缩短住院时间.
