目的：探讨分析日间手术中心（ambulatory surgery center,ASC）复合局部麻醉下腰骶部筋膜脂肪疝的手术治疗体会。方法回顾性分析2012年10月至2013年7月,佛山市第一人民医院ASC接收手术治疗腰骶部筋膜脂肪疝患者33例的临床资料。手术方式：疝囊口扩大＋内容物切除术。麻醉方式：复方利多卡因乳膏表面麻醉＋哌卡因局部浸润麻醉。结果本组患者均在复合局部麻醉下顺利完成手术治疗,术中、术后无手术相关并发症发生。术后随访6个月,手术疗效价：优良率为93．94％。结论 ACS复合局部麻醉下手术治疗腰骶部筋膜脂肪疝疗效确切、安全可靠,减少了患者在院时间,节省了医疗成本。     

精神分裂症病人维持治疗中的依从性研究

为了研究门诊精神分裂症病人在维持治疗中的依从性，对３９７例门诊精神分裂症病人在维持治疗中的服药依从性采用直接面询法进行了研究。结果显示，完全依从的有２９９例，占７５．３％，部分依从和不依从的有９８例，占２４．７％。＞３０岁组的依从性较≤３０岁组的好（Ｐ＜０．０１），家庭人际关系好的病人依从性优于家庭人际关系差的病人（Ｐ＜０．０１），目前精神症状严重的病人、维持治疗药物剂量（折合氯丙嗪剂量）＞３００ｍｇ／ｄ的病人、ＭｏｒｎｉｎｇＳｉｄｅ康复状态量表评分高的病人依从性差。经逐步多元回归分析，影响服药依从性的主要因素为：家庭人际关系、维持治疗药物剂量、维持治疗时间、慢性精神病病人标准化精神症状量表评分。认为提高病人的依从性能减少疾病的复发。     

电视腹腔镜下输卵管吻合手术治疗输卵管部分梗阻性不孕(附7例报道并文献复习)

目的探讨腹腔镜下进行输卵管部分炎症性梗阻吻合的具体方法。方法利用电视腹腔镜5mm器械、三切口的微创腹腔镜方法,对3例输卵管妊娠手术后患侧阻塞患者以及4例继发性不孕患者经子宫输卵管碘油造影显示伴有一侧或双侧输卵管病变患者行双层6/0尼龙线内缝吻合输卵管,其手术平均时间为63.6min。结果7例患者手术后通水均示通畅,5例患侧进行修复的输卵管经输卵管子宫碘油造影术显示均通畅,并且获得宫内妊娠3例,足月分娩1例。结论电视腹腔镜下采用显微吻合手术对输卵管局部炎症梗阻进行治疗,有助获得妊娠。     

非动脉炎性前部缺血性视神经病变患者动态血压分析

目的观察分析非动脉炎性前部缺血性视神经病变(NAION)患者的24 h动态血压(ABPM)特征。方法选择63例符合NAION诊断的患者,观察其24 h动态血压监测结果,并与63例性别构成比、年龄相匹配的无NAION患者的动态血压结果相比较。结果①NAION组的24 h平均收缩压、夜间平均收缩压、夜间平均舒张压均显著高于对照组(P<0.05)。②在NAION组中最低舒张压发生在夜间的比率为33.3%,较对照组49.2%减少,但差异无统计学意义,而NAION夜间最低舒张压明显高于对照组,差异有显著性(P<0.05)。③NAION组患者中夜间血压下降率显著低于对照组,差异有显著性(P<0.01)。④NAION组杓型血压的发生率为19.0%,对照组为39.7%,而反杓型血压发生率NAION组为39.7%,对照组为15.9%,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论 NAION患者动态血压昼夜节律异常较为普遍,夜间血压(包括动脉压、舒张压)不能正常下降可能为发病因素之一。     

A postanaesthetic discharge scoring system for home readiness after ambulatory surgery

The assessment of a patient's home readiness is an important element in ambulatory surgery. No objective scoring system exists which systematically determines home readiness. A new postanaesthetic discharge scoring system (PADSS) has been designed and evaluated for reliability and validity against the existing clinical discharge criteria (CDC) in the ambulatory surgery unit of the hospital. Two hundred and forty-seven ambulatory surgery patients undergoing general anaesthesia were studied. Overall, there was a close correlation between the end of anaesthesia to the time patients were fit for discharge using either the PADSS or the CDC (Pearson's correlation coefficient r = 0.89). The internal consistency reliability of the PADSS ( = 0.65) was superior to that of the CDC ( = 0.14). The interobserver reliability coefficients of the PADSS at 1.0 and 1.5 h post surgery was also superior to the CDC for the dilatation and curettage patients. We have validated the PADSS against the CDC and found it to have superior measurement scaling and diagnostic properties.     

Rationale and Methodology of the SARAH Trial: Long-Term Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients With Resistant Hypertension and Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Introduction

Patients with resistant hypertension (RH) have a high risk of developing cardiovascular events; therefore, new therapeutic approaches to better control blood pressure may be useful in improving cardiovascular outcomes. The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is very high among patients with RH. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been shown to be an effective treatment for reducing blood pressure in patients with RH. Nevertheless, the long-term effect of CPAP treatment on cardiovascular outcomes has not been explored.The main objective of the SARAH study is to assess the impact of OSA and its treatment on cardiovascular outcomes (morbidity and mortality) in patients with RH.

Assessing quality of primary diabetes care in South Korea and Taiwan using avoidable hospitalizations

Quality of primary diabetes care is a key health policy concern in many OECD countries with an aging population. This cross-national, population-based study examined the extent and attributes of diabetes-related avoidable hospitalizations (DRAHs) in South Korea and Taiwan, both of which have social health insurance-based health systems with limited gate-keeping for hospitalizations. We analyzed comparable, nationally representative health insurance beneficiary datasets for the two countries (2002–2013), linked with community health resource data. The age- and sex-standardized DRAH rates were calculated, and multivariate, multi-level longitudinal modeling approaches were adopted. The DRAH rate decreased in Taiwan consistently during 2002–2013 and in Korea after 2011 only. Under the universal health coverage, people enjoyed high accessibility to care. A higher number of physician visits reduced DRAHs in Korea but not in Taiwan. Socio-economic disparities in DRAHs still existed in both countries, especially in Taiwan. We found a different trajectory in two similar health systems for the selected health system performance indicator for primary diabetes care. This can be partly explained by different policy approaches to diabetes management in the two countries over the years. Necessary are policy efforts to improve the quality and equality of primary diabetes care and better control of hospital admissions in these two health systems that provide generous access to care at a low cost in East Asia.
