原发性高血压患者微量白蛋白尿与血压及左室重塑的关系

目的探讨原发性高血压(EH)患者微量白蛋白尿(MCA)与血压及左室重塑的关系.方法 84名EH患者按24h尿微量白蛋白值分为微量白蛋白尿组(MCA组)和正常白蛋白尿组(NMCA组),进行动态血压、心脏超声检测,比较两组动态血压值、左室重量指数(LVMI)及左室重塑的特点.结果 MCA组平均收缩压、平均舒张压、脉压、平均动脉压均高于NMCA组(均P＜0.01);MCA组LVMI、左室肥厚与向心性肥厚的发生率均高于NMCA组(均P＜0.01),正常构型率低于NMCA组(P=0.01).LVMI与尿微量白蛋白值、平均收缩压、平均舒张压均呈显著的正相关(均P＜0.05).结论合并有MCA的EH患者血压较高,LVMI较大,左室肥厚与向心性肥厚的发生率较高.MCA与血压及左室重塑密切相关.     

双腔右心室(附四例报告)

本文对我院1983～1985年经手术证实的4例双腔右心室病例,进行了分析讨论。本病除右心导管检查发现肺动脉与右心室有压力阶差移行曲线、右心造影时心腔内显示充盈缺损、超声心动图等检查有助于诊断外,X线心脏平片、心电图、临床症状、体征均无特异性的诊断价值。认为,由于本病多合并室缺,因此对室缺修补时,应常规探查右心室腔,以免漏诊。另外,对本病与法乐氏四联症的鉴别作了较详细的讨论。     

护士执业权及其法律保护初探

护士执业权是依法取得护士执业证书,以护士名义为社会提供护理服务的医务人员进行护理工作的权利和相关权益,是护士执业规则的核心内容,护士执业权属于公民劳动权益的范畴,是一种具有职业特权性质的特殊劳动权,应立法保护。本文试图通过对护士执业权的法理初步探讨,结合目前存在的侵害护士执业权的突出现象分析,提出保护该项权利的立法建议。     

Management of adult patients with a left ventricular assist device.

The number of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantations is growing as a result of increased waiting periods for cardiac transplantation and the decreased availability of organ donors. Furthermore, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved permanent LVAD support. After an acute hospitalization, patients with LVADs may need prolonged convalescence in a healthcare facility because they have complex medical needs and are physically disabled. Admission criteria need to be developed as essential patient and nursing competencies need to be defined as a part of a successful LVAD program in an acute rehabilitation center. Acute rehabilitation centers can help patients with LVADs transition to a home setting.     

An Implantable Aortic Valvo-pump for Destination Therapy

To investigate the possibility of a long-term applicable left ventricular assist device, a 23 mm outer diameter and 31 g weight implantable aortic valvo-pump was developed. It consists of a rotor and a stator; the rotor has a driven magnets assemble and an impeller, the stator has a motor coil with iron core and a outflow guide vane. The device locates the position of aortic valve, delivers the blood directly from left ventricle to aorta. Neither connecting conduits nor “bypass” circuits are necessary. Therefore, the device has promisingly better antithrombogenicity than other heart pumps. In hemodynamic testing, the pump can produce a blood flow of 7 l/min volume with 50 mmHg pressure increase at 15,000 rpm rotating speed, and at zero flow rate the pump can maintain a diastolic pressure over 80 mmHg at same rotating speed. For further studies the blood compatibility and the durability of the device are of most importance.     

Concomitant mitral valve repair and left ventricular reconstruction in a patient with chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation and inferior left ventricular aneurysm

The surgical approach to ischemic mitral regurgitation with concomitant inferior left ventricular aneurysm remains uncertain in terms of the indication for operation and the short-and long-term outcomes. We performed concomitant mitral valve repair, left ventricular reconstruction, and aortic valve replacement on a 71-year-old male with severe ischemic mitral regurgitation, inferior left ventricular aneurysm, and degenerative aortic regurgitation. Postoperative status was in New York Heart Association functional class I without mitral regurgitation 8 months after operation. We discuss, and review the procedures reported in the literature.     

Torsades de pointes after intracoronary papaverine

Coronary blood flow velocity and coronary flow reserve can be assessed in humans using a coronary Doppler catheter and the vasodilator papaverine. Although it is a safe, elegant and reproducible technique, serious complications can occur. Coronary flow reserve assessment in a 49-year-old man with a critical stenosis in the proximal part of the circumflex artery was complicated by a papaverine-induced ventricular arrhythmia. Several features of the present case report support papaverine-induced disturbances of the repolarization phase as the pathophysiological mechanism: a 'torsade de pointes' pattern of the tachycardia, the lengthening of the QT-interval, the appearance of a new U-wave and the presence of additional risk factors (hypokalaemia and alcalosis). Patients presenting additional risk factors for this complication should be excluded from coronary flow reserve assessment.     

定量组织速度成像对右室起搏患者左室收缩运动的研究

目的　应用定量组织速度成像 (QTVI)评价右室心尖起搏 (RVAP)VVI型对左心收缩功能的影响。方法　应用GEVivid 7彩色多普勒超声显像仪对 2 0例RVAP患者和 2 0例正常人的心尖四腔切面的室间隔和左室外侧壁速度和位移曲线进行观察 ,测量心电图Q波分别至室间隔和左室外侧壁收缩期峰速度的时间 ,并除以R R间期进行校正。结果　QTVI显示右室起搏器置入者的室间隔与左室外侧壁速度曲线的收缩期S波非同步出现。Q波至室间隔收缩期峰速度的时间短于Q波至左室外侧壁收缩期峰速度的时间 ,两者分别为 ( 0 .12± 0 .0 2 )s和 ( 0 .14± 0 .0 2 )s,P <0 .0 5。结论　右室起搏后早期的左室整体收缩功能虽未见明显下降 ,但QTVI可以发现室间隔与左室壁收缩明显的不协调 ,可作为早期分析左室收缩运动的定量方法。
