Accidental bronchial intubation An analysis of AIMS incident reports from 1988 to 1994 inclusive

Accidental bronchial intubation was examined in the first 3947 cases reported to the Australian Incident Monitoring Study and was found to have accounted for 154 (3.7%) of the total incidents reported. Most incidents were detected in the operating theatre (93.5%) and during maintenance of anaesthesia (77.9%), by unexplained oxygen desaturation alone (63.6%). Capnography remained normal or unremarkable during 88.5% of the episodes. One-third of cases were associated with head or neck surgery and possible flexion of the patient's head. A RAE tube was used in 20% of incidents, a greater frequency than occurred in the study overall. A third party was implicated in 36 (23.4%) of cases. Ninety per cent of cases were considered preventable. Major morbidity occurred in three cases and unplanned intensive care admission was required in a further five. Almost two-thirds (61.1%) of the incidents might have been avoided by the proposed markings on the tracheal tube. We conclude that when arterial desaturation occurs at any stage during anaesthesia the possibility of bronchial intubation must be considered. Asymmetrical ventilation may be difficult to detect clinically and in most cases there is no change in capnography.

A Test to Detect Chest Tube Kinking

Objectives: To determine whether the Mac‐technique test can detect kinking of the chest tube upon thoracostomy tube placement. Methods: This was a prospective observational study that was conducted October 2000 through October 2001 in an urban Level 1 trauma center. There were 103 consecutive nonrandomized adult trauma patients who required immediate tube thoracostomy during their initial resuscitation who were entered into the study. The Mac‐technique test was performed during standard tube thoracostomy insertion to the appropriate depth. The test involved grasping the external portion of the thoracostomy tube, turning it clockwise 180°, and then releasing the tube. If the tube spontaneously spun back to its original position, the test was considered positive, and the tube was considered kinked. If the tube did not spontaneously spin back and stayed in position upon release, the test was considered negative. Regardless of the results of this test, the tube was secured, and a postprocedure chest radiograph was obtained. The criterion standard for determining a kinked chest tube was its appearance on this chest radiograph. Results: A total of 103 chest tubes were placed by using the Mac‐technique test. The test was positive in eight placements; four tubes were kinked on chest radiograph. The Mac‐technique test was negative in 95 placements; four tubes were kinked on chest radiograph. The Mac technique had a sensitivity of 50% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 15.7% to 84.3%), a specificity of 95.8% (95% CI = 89.6% to 98.8%), a positive likelihood ratio of 11.9, a negative likelihood ratio of 0.52, and an odds ratio using Yates correction of 20.3 (95% CI = 4.1 to 102.1). Conclusions: On the basis of this study, a positive Mac‐technique test is useful to detect chest tubes that are likely to be kinked after insertion and before securing.     

改良气囊导尿管内固定方法的临床探讨

目的探讨改良气囊导尿管的内固定方法，减轻患者的不适感，增加尿管留置成功率。方法将150例需留置导尿管的患者随机分为A、B、C3组，常规导尿成功后，A组向气囊内注入生理盐水12ml；B组向气囊内注入空气12ml；C组向气囊内注入生理盐水和空气各6ml，于24h后采用自制问卷调查患者不舒适的程度，并在1周后统计置管的成功率。结果A组Ⅱ度以上不舒适38例，留置失败1例，失败率为2．0％；B组Ⅱ度以上不舒适5例，留置失败12例，失败率为24．0％；C组Ⅱ度以上不舒适5例，留置失败2例，失败率为3．9％。满意度B组与C组比较差异无统计学意义，A组与B组和C组比较差并均有统计学意义（P〈0．01）。失败率A组与C组比较差异无统计学意义（P=0．3864），B组与A组和C组比较差异有统计学意义（P〈0．01）。结论3组从舒适的角度和留置成功率全面比较C组的方法优于A、B两组，留置气囊导尿管时向气囊内注入生理盐水和空气各6ml是内固定最佳的方法，在临床上是可行的。     

上尿路梗阻性急性肾功能不全内、外引流的选择

目的探讨内、外引流在上尿路梗阻急性肾功能不全时的选择和效果。方法25例各种原因引起的上尿路梗阻（15例肿瘤性梗阻,10例非肿瘤性梗阻）合并急性肾功能不全,分别或先后对12例行输尿管内置双J管（doub le J,D J）内引流15次,对19例行经皮肾穿刺造瘘（percutaneous nephrectomy,PCN）外引流23次。结果引流成功23例,PCN外引流成功率86.9%（20/23）,双J管内引流成功率60.0%（9/15）,PCN术后继发出血1例。结论对于盆腹腔进展期或广泛转移肿瘤导致的梗阻,PCN解除梗阻优于输尿管支架内引流;非肿瘤性梗阻宜先尝试D J内引流。     

Fallopian tube malignancies: experience of Social Security Agency Aegean Maternity Hospital

The aim of the study was to determine the clinical characteristics and management of fallopian tube malignancies together with the results there unto that had been diagnosed and treated in our oncology department retrospectively. Twelve cases of fallopian tube malignancies, of a total of 2155 gynecologic malignancies (0.55%), that had been diagnosed in or referred to our hospital between January 1986 and December 2001 were evaluated retrospectively. Eight of 12 cases were diagnosed after surgical intervention in our department. Staging laparotomies were applied to all of the eight cases. Complementary surgeries of other four cases who were referred to our department were done according to the same principles of cytoreductive surgery. Staging of the cases was done according to Federation of International Gynecologists and Obstetricians (FIGO). Adjuvant chemotherapy was applied to all of the cases except two (10 cases, 83.3%). Second-look laparotomy (SLL) was applied to two of the cases. Mean age of the cases was 54.2 (range 35-72) years. Histopathology of the cases was as follows: serous adenocarcinoma in 10 cases (83.3%), endometrioid adenocarcinoma in one case (8.3%), and undifferentiated carcinoma in one case (8.3%). Adjuvant chemotherapy (PAC regimen to eight of the cases and PP regimen to two cases) was applied to 10 of the cases (83.3%). SLL was applied to two cases. Another case had died because of local recurrence at the 27th month of the follow-up. Mean follow-up period of the cases was 37.8 months (range 1-144 months). Fallopian tube malignancies are very rare malignancies. Diagnosis can be made generally peri- or postoperatively. More extensive clinical research must be performed in order to have definite etiologic, diagnostic, management modalities, and prognostic markers.

环隙气升式反应器在非牛顿流体体系中的应用──反应器特性研究和体积氧传递系数的关联

以羧甲基纤维素钠（ＣＭＣ）水溶液模拟非牛顿型发酵介质，在内径为０．１５ｍ，高为０．９７５ｍ的环隙气升式反应器内，考察了液体流变性质和导流筒结构对气液传质的影响，提出了体积氧传递系数（ＫＬａ）的经验关联式。实验表明：对于较高粘度的假塑性流体，反应器内部采用整体式导流筒结构，将有利于传质和混合，其性能优于采用开窗式导流筒或无导流筒的反应器。
