Clinical pharmacy practice guidelines have developed rapidly in recent years. They provide a series of recommendations for optimizing drug treatment management and improving pharmaceutical care appropriateness and are widely employed in clinical practice. Based on literature review and the experience of guideline development, this paper summarized the meaning, formulation methods, formulation status, and registration of clinical pharmacy practice guidelines, and provided suggestions for the development of guidelines.
Objective To compare the biomechanical effects between rotational acetabular osteotomy and Chiari osteotomy for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) by biomechanical test. Methods Sixteen DDH models of 8 human cadaver specimens were prepared by resecting the upper edge and posterior edge of acetabulum. And the Wiberg central-edge angle (CE) of the DDH model was less than 20°. Then the rotational acetabular osteotomy was performed on the left hip and Chiari osteotomy on the right hip. When 600 N loading was loaded at 5 mm/minute by a material testing machine, the strain values of normal specimens, DDH specimens, and 2 models after osteotomies were measured. Results In normal specimens, the strain values of the left and right hips were 845.63 ± 533.91 and 955.94 ± 837.42 respectively, while the strain values were 1 439.03 ± 625.23 and 1 558.75 ± 1 009.46 respectively in DDH specimens, which was about 2 times that of normal hips. The morphology and X-ray examinations indicated that the DDH model was successfully established. The strain value was 574.94 ± 430.88 after rotational acetabular osteotomy, and was significantly lower than that of DDH specimens (t=4.176, P=0.004); the strain value was 1 614.81 ± 932.67 after Chiari osteotomy, showing no significant difference when compared with that of DDH specimens (t=0.208, P=0.841). The strain value relieved by rotational acetabular osteotomy was significantly higher than that by Chiari osteotomy (t= — 2.548, P=0.023). Conclusion Rotational acetabular osteotomy is better than Chiari osteotomy in relieving hip joint stress of DDH.
Abstract: Objective To evaluate the biological characteristics of decellularized bovine jugular vein valved conduit treated with dyemediated photo oxidation. Methods From July 2009 to July 2010, this study was carried out in Xijing Hospital affiliated to the Fourth Military Medical University. Forty bovine jugular vein valved conduits were obtained from Qinchuan scalpers aged between 2 to 6 years with the weight ranged from 200 to 400 kg. Then, the 40 conduits were divided into four groups by random digital table with 10 in each group. The conduits were treated with glutaraldehyde in the glutaraldehyde group (GA group), were decellularized in the decellularized group (DC group), were decellularized and treated with dyemediated photo oxidation in the decellularized and dyemediated photo oxidation treated group (DP group) , and were not dealt with in the control group (CO group). Thickness, appearance, histology, water content, shrinkage temperature, breaking strength, and soluble protein level of the conduit wall and valve were detected and compared among the four groups. Results Thickness and water content of the conduit wall and valve in the DP group were similar to those in the CO group (Pgt;0.05), while thickness of both wall and valve in the DP group was less than those in the GA group (wall: 0.8±0.1 mm vs. 1.1±0.1 mm; valve: 02±0.1 mm vs. 0.3±0.1 mm, Plt;0.05), and water content of the conduit wall and valve in the DP group was more than those in the GA group (wall: 86.1%±2.2% vs. 70.4%±2.8%; valve: 87.1%±2.5% vs. 72.1%±3.1%, Plt;0.05). The breaking strength and shrinkage temperature of the DP group were similar to those of the GA group (Pgt;0.05), while the shrinkage temperature (wall: 84.7±1.4 ℃ vs. 70.4±0.3 ℃; valve: 85.7±1.5 ℃ vs. 70.7±0.6 ℃, Plt;0.05) and the breaking strength (wall: 10.4±1.1 N vs. 6.8±1.0 N; valve: 8.0±0.9 N vs. 3.2±0.6 N, Plt;0.05) of the DP group were higher than those in the CO group. Conclusion Decellularized bovine jugular vein valved conduits treated with dyemediated photo oxidation have nice biological characteristics.Key words: Dyemediated photo oxidation; Decellularized; Bovine jugular vein valved conduit; Biological characteristics
ObjectiveTo summarize the design and the biomechanical characteristics of Sivash-range of motion femoral modular stem (S-ROM) prosthesis and mainly to introduce its clinical use in developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) and hip revision. MethodsLiterature concerning S-ROM prosthesis was extensively reviewed and analyzed. ResultsThe S-ROM prosthesis based on the modularity feature can reach press-fit in metaphysis and diaphysis of femur concurrently. Additionaly, S-ROM prosthesis can fit for anatomic differences of the DDH femur and is capable of use in correction osteotomy and hip revision. ConclusionModular junctions of S-ROM prosthesis increase the potentials of implant fracture and metallic debris production, so further follow-up study is needed to verify the long-term effectiveness.
Objective To investigate the advance in the management of skeletal trauma of the extremities. Methods The literature at home and abroad was reviewed, and the research findings withclinical experience in the therapeutic methods for fracture of the extremities were summarized.Results The concept on fracture management was renewed, the minimally invasive surgery (MIS) was developed and popularized, the implantation was improved, the navigation technique with computerassisted surgery was applied, and the tissue engineering was developed. The fracture mana gement was changed from the anatomical reduction with absolutely rigid fixation to the biological osteosynthesis with protection of the fracture environment. The minimally invasive surgical techniques included the minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis, intramedullary nailing, external fixation, arthroscopic surgery,and computer-assisted surgery. In concordance with the MIS principles, the newimplants, such as the locking compression plate, and the less invasive stabilization system were well designed and put into clinical practice so as to provide effective therapeutic results in treating osteoporotic fractures and complicated articular and/or metaphyseal fractures. In treatment of the delayed union or nonunion offractures, more effective techniques were employed, including the application of bone substitutes, which are degradable and have properties of bone conduction and induction. In the repair of segmental defects of the long tubular bone, the bonetransport and the vascularized bone grafts could work well. The investigation of the bone engineering revealed its great potentiality.Conclusion Fracture of the extremities is a common problem and its management should emphasize the recovery of the extremity function of the patient in addition to emphasis on the replacement and fixation of the biological structures. The combination of bone engineering and microsurgery represents the development tendency inthis field.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of total hip arthroplasty (THA) combined with femoral head autograft for Crowe type II and type III developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Methods From January 2001 to January 2004, THA was performed for 23 patients (29 hips) with osteoarthritis secondary to DDH. There were 20 females (26 hips) and 3 males (3 hips) with an average age of 52 years (range 43-65 years). Unilateral DDH occurred in 17 patients and bilateral DDH occurred in6 patients. Based on radiographic classification of Crowe, there were 17 cases (20 hips) of type II and 6 cases (9 hips) of type III. The length difference was (2.9 ± 0.8) cm between two lower l imbs of the unilateral DDH patients. The Harris scores were 43.6 ± 13.8 preoperatively. The standard procedure of THA was performed in 3 patients (4 hips), the structural femoral head autograft for restoring normal level of rotating center of the acetabulum in other patients. Results The incision healed by first intention in all patients. No patient suffered compl ications after operation. The duration of follow-up ranged from 4 to 7 years (average 5.6 years). The X-ray films showed bony heal ing between the grafted bone and the il ium in all patients. At last follow-up, the length difference was (0.9 ± 0.2) cm between two lower l imbs and the Harris score was 86.3 ± 6.4; showing statistically differences (P lt; 0.05) when compared with preoperation. The X-ray films showed no dislocation of acetabulum, and femoral prosthesis, and no signs of dislocation, absorption and collapse of the grafted bone. Conclusion THA combined with structural femoral head autograft for patients with osteoarthritis secondary to DDH can obtain favorable results. This method can restore normal level of rotating center of the acetabulum, provide rel iable acetabular fixation, and restore acetabular bone stock in patients with Crowe type II and type III DDH.
Objective To study the past, present and future of bone grafting. Methods Related l iterature on bone grafting in recent years was extensively reviewed. Results Bone grafting had a history over 300 years, a variety of bone grafting candidates including autografting, allografting, xenografting, synthetic and composite bone grafting had been util ized in cl inical orthopedics at present. But bone autografting and allografting represented the preferred alternatives for bone grafting.It would be important trend in bone grafting to fulfill the optimizing design of biomaterials and constructing composite bone substitutes with cells, factors and scaffolds. Conclusion The future bone grafting might be focused on how to achieve the goal of the rapid osseointegration as well as the physiological bone reconstruction.
Objective To summarize the recent development in the plastic and reconstructive surgery. Methods The related literaturewas reviewed and the main achievements in the field of plastic surgery were summarized. Results Plastic and reconstructive surgery was one ofthe quickly-developed fields in the world medicine, especially aesthetic plastic surgery. Reconstructive plastic surgery and aesthetic plastic surgery would be bined in the future. The “aesthetic hand surgery” was a very important branch of the hand surgery,so not only the function recovery of the hand deformities but also the aesthetic sculpture for the deformed hand should be emphasized. Evaluation on measurement of the facial paralysis reconstruction was a main part of the facial examination. The allotransplantation of the face became more developed. The anatomical research on the cutaneous perforator arteries, vascularisation of the biceps femorismuscle, and the gracilis perforator flap was well performedby the plastic surgeons.
Objective To explore the surgical technique and effectiveness of autologous femoral head bone graft in total hip arthroplasty (THA) for Crowe type Ⅲ developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) with acetabular bone defect. Methods Between July 2012 and September 2015, 12 cases (12 hips) of Crowe type Ⅲ DDH with acetabular bone defect were included. Of the 12 patients, 2 were male and 10 were female, with an average age of 54.3 years (range, 37-75 years). The Harris score before operation was 41.08±7.90. The preoperative leg length discrepancy was 0.53-4.28 cm, with an average of 2.47 cm. Autologous femoral head bone graft and cancellous screw fixation were used in all cases to reconstruct acetabula in THA. Four cases were performed with subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy at the same time. Results All incisions healed by first intention. Twelve cases were followed up 1 year and 10 months to 5 years, with an average of 3.0 years. X-ray films showed that bone healing was observed in all cases at 6 months to 1 year after operation. There was no bone graft osteolysis, absorption, bone graft collapse, and acetabular prosthesis loosening. At last follow-up, the Harris score was 89.50±2.78, showing significant difference when compared with preoperative value (t=–25.743, P=0.003). The length discrepancy was 0-1.81 cm at last follow-up with an average of 0.76 cm. Conclusion Autologous femoral head bone graft is effective for Crowe type Ⅲ DDH with acetabular bone defect, which has advantages of restoring pelvic bone stock, obtaining satisfied prosthetic stability and mid-term effectiveness.
