Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of percutaneous transhepatic portal vein catheterization and thrombolysis on acute superior mesenteric vein thrombosis. Methods The treatment and therapeutic efficacy of 7 cases of acute superior mesenteric vein thrombosis underwent percutaneous transhepatic portal vein catheterization and thrombolysis under ultrasound guidance from August 2005 to April 2009 were analyzed. Results All the patients succeeded in portal vein catheterization and no bile leakage or abdominal bleeding occurred during the procedure. The clinical symptoms such as abdominal pain, abdominal distension， and passing bloody stool relieved were relieved and liquid diet began at postoperative of day 2-5. Emergency operation was done in one case and there was no intestinal fistula. The angiography after the operation showed that the majority of thrombosis were cleared and the blood of portal vein and superior mesenteric vein flowed smoothly. During the follow-up of 3 months to 3 years, all the patients’ status maintained well and no recurrence occurred. Conclusion Treatment of acute superior mesenteric vein thrombosis by percutaneous transhepatic portal vein thrombolysis is safe and effective.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the effectiveness and safety of anatomic landmarks positioning method (ALM) and real-time two-dimensional ultrasound (RTUS) guidance in the internal jugular vein cannulation. MethodsWe searched PubMed, EMbase, Web of Knowledge, CBM, WanFang Data and CNKI for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) concerning the effectiveness and safety of ALM and RTUS in the internal jugular vein catheterization up to May 1st, 2014. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assess methodological quality of included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 10 RCTs involving 1 973 cases were included in the metaanalysis. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with the ALM method, the RTUS method reduced puncture failure rate (OR=0.08, 95%CI 0.05 to 0.15, P<0.000 01). For safety, compared with the ALM method, the RTUS method was significantly lower in arterial injury rate (peto-OR=0.22, 95%CI 0.14 to 0.37, P<0.000 01), and the incidence of pneumothorax (peto-OR=0.13, 95%CI 0.04 to 0.40, P=0.000 3). ConclusionCompared to the ALM method, the RTUS method has characteristics such as causing fewer traumas, and having higher success rate and fewer complications. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the above conclusion still needs to be verified by conducting more studies.
ObjectiveTo analyze the causes and potential risk factors of re-catheterization after failure of no urinary catheter in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.MethodsThe clinical data of 1 618 patients without urinary catheter indwelling during the perioperative period of thoracic surgery in our hospital from 2013 to 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, including 791 males and 827 females, with a median age of 58 years, ranging from 27 to 85 years. And the risk factors for re-insertion after failure of urinary catheter were investgated.ResultsThe rate of catheter re-insertion was 1.5% (24/1 618). Compared with patients without re-insertion, patients with re-insertion had longer operation time [120.0 (95.0, 130.0) min vs. 120.0 (115.0, 180.0) min, P=0.015] and more intraoperative fluid infusion [800.0 (600.0, 1 100.0) mL vs. 1 150.0 (725.0, 1 350.0) mL, P=0.008]. Further multivariate analysis found that the operation time (OR=1.014, P=0.004, 95%CI 1.005-1.024) and intraoperative fluid infusion (OR=1.001, P=0.022, 95%CI 1.001–1.002) were independent risk factors for re-insertion.ConclusionThe rate of catheter re-insertion in lung cancer patients is relatively low, and conventional no placement of catheter is safe and feasible after lung cancer surgery. Increasing operation time or intraoperative infusion volume may increase the risk of catheter re-insertion after lung cancer surgery.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of suprapubic catheterization(SPC) by using central venous catheter (CVC) on the perioperative complications in middle and low rectal cancer surgery. MethodsThe clinical data of 141 patients with middle and low rectal cancer underwent operation in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from April 2012 to January 2015 were collected. There were 65 patients performed SPC by using CVC, 76 patients performed routine transurethral catheterization(TUC). The incidences of bacteriuria and urinary retention, recatheterization rate, duration of catheterization, and catheter-related pain were analyzed and compared between these two groups. Results①Compared with the TUC, the SPC by using CVC could significantly reduce the incidence of bacteriuria(P=0.002), espe-cially in female(P=0.006), ≥60 years old(P=0.001), low rectal cancer(P=0.003), open surgery(P=0.018), Miles(P=0.016), and Dixon(P=0.032).②There was no significant difference in the incidence of urinary retention(P=0.464) between the SPC by using CVC and the TUC.③Compared with the TUC, the SPC by using CVC could significantly reduce the inci-dence of recatheterization rate(P=0.001), especially in the patients with male(P=0.016), ≥60 years old(P=0.008), low rectal cancer(P=0.019), laparoscopic surgery(P=0.013), and Miles(P=0.037).④Compared with the TUC, the point of catheter-related pain was significantly lower in the SPC by using CVC(P=0.001), no matter males(P=0.005) or females(P=0.010), aged 60 years and older(P=0.023) or younger(P=0.034), middle rectal cancer(P=0.017) or low rectal cancer(P=0.046), open surgery(P=0.033) or laparoscopic surgery(P=0.021), Dixon(P=0.019) or Miles(P=0.035).⑤The duration of catheterization was similar between the SPC by using CVC and the TUC(P=0.597). ConclusionSPC by using CVC is a safer, more effective and more acceptable method of bladder drainage in middle and low rectal cancer surgery as compared with routine TUC.
Objective To summarize the blood supply to the sources and characteristics of advanced breast cancer，and explore the method，efficacy，and clinical applications of preoperative super-selective arterial catheterization chemoembolization under DSA for it. Methods Sixty patients with advanced breast cancer confirmed by the aspiration biopsy from February 2007 to October 2011 in this hospital were selected. Seldinger method was used，distributing of the tumor blood supply artery was identified and intubated the target artery by super-selective arterial catheterization via the femoral artery puncture under the DSA. Then，pirarubicin 60 mg plus paclitaxel 120 mg of two chemotherapy drugs was injected into slowly the target artery and the intervention infusion chemotherapy was performed，finally the tumor blood supply artery was embolizated by gelatin sponge particle. Results A total of 112 conclusive blood supply artery in 60 patients with DSA were found，including eight cases of single blood supply artery，52 cases of multiple blood supply arteries，mainly in the lateral thoracic artery and （or） internal thoracic artery-based. The complete remission rate was 25.0% （15/60），partial remission rate was 73.3% （44/60），stable disease rate was 1.7% （1/60），the total effective rate was 98.3% （59/60）. There was no progression disease. The median remission duration was 19 months，median survival time was 40 months. Conclusions The location of the original foci of breast cancer is closely related to blood supply arteries. The tumor in the lateral of the breast mainly dominates by the lateral thoracic artery blood supply. The tumor in the inner breast mainly dominates by the internal thoracic artery blood supply. The preoperative super-selective arterial catheterization chemoembolization under DSA can obviously improve the therapeutic effect，long-term survival，and the target of interventional chemoembolization.
ObjectiveTo explore the influence of evidence-based nursing care of catheterization on the incidence of urinary tract injury and urinary tract infection in patients with spinal cord injury and long-term indwelling catheters.MethodsFrom July 1st, 2017 to November 30th, 2018, 100 patients with spinal cord injury indwelling catheters in Department of Spinal Surgery were prospectively selected as the research objects. According to the admission time, patients admitted between July 2017 and February 2018 were assigned into the control group (n=50), and patients admitted between March 2018 and November 2018 were assigned into the observation group (n=50). Traditional catheter placement was used in the control group, while evidence-based catheter placement was used in the observation group. The incidences of catheter-related urethral injury and urinary tract infection after the catheterization were compared between the two groups.ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference in gender, age, diagnosis, or length of hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05). Catheter placement was performed 57 times in the control group and 59 times in the observation group during hospitalization. After catheterization, the incidences of urethral hemorrhage and gross hematuria in the control group [22.80% (13/57) and 15.78% (9/57), respectively] were higher than those in the observation group [both were 1.69% (1/59)], with statistical differences between the two groups (P<0.05). The incidence of urinary tract infection in the control group differed from that in the observation group [42.0% (21/50) vs. 18.0% (9/50), P=0.009].ConclusionThe evidence-based urinary catheterization method for patients with spinal cord injury and long-term indwelling catheter can effectively prevent catheter-related urinary tract injury, reduce the incidence of catheter-related urinary tract infection during hospitalization, and improve the quality of clinical care.
The management of neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction due to spinal cord injury is one of the most challenging tasks in rehabilitation. Considerable progress has been made in the management of lower urinary tract dysfunction in patients with spinal cord injury over the past few decades. However, urinary complications remain one of the most serious complications in patients with spinal cord injury. Lower urinary tract dysfunction in patients with spinal cord injury present with a variety of symptoms and signs that require comprehensive evaluation. The management of lower urinary tract dysfunction in patients with spinal cord injury require tailored and individualized treatment approaches. Based on the clinical practice of rehabilitation at home and abroad, this paper expounds the progress of the assessment and rehabilitation of lower urinary tract dysfunction after spinal cord injury, and puts forward some suggestions for the reference of clinical staff.
Objective To construct a risk prediction score model for serious adverse event (SAE) after cardiac catheterization in patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) and verify its predictive effect. Methods The patients with PH who underwent cardiac catheterization in Wuhan Asian Heart Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University of Science and Technology from January 2018 to January 2022 were retrospectively collected. The patients were randomly divided into a model group and a validation group according to the order of admission. The model group was divided into a SAE group and a non-SAE group according to whether SAE occurred after the catheterization. The data of the two groups were compared, and the risk prediction score model was established according to the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis. The discrimination and calibration of the model were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, respectively. Results A total of 758 patients were enrolled, including 240 (31.7%) males and 518 (68.3%) females, with a mean age of 43.1 (18.0-81.0) years. There were 530 patients in the model group (47 patients in the SAE group and 483 patients in the non-SAE group) and 228 patients in the validation group. Univariate analysis showed statistical differences in age, smoking history, valvular disease history, heart failure history, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, and other factors between the SAE and non-SAE groups (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age≥50 years, history of heart failure, moderate to severe congenital heart disease, moderate to severe PH, cardiac catheterization and treatment, surgical general anesthesia, and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide≥126.65 pg/mL were risk factors for SAE after cardiac catheterization for ACHD-PH patients (P<0.05). The risk prediction score model had a total score of 0-139 points and patients who had a score>50 points were high-risk patients. Model validation results showed an area under the ROC curve of 0.937 (95%CI 0.897-0.976). Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test: χ2=3.847, P=0.797. Conclusion Age≥50 years, history of heart failure, moderate to severe congenital heart disease, moderate to severe PH, cardiac catheterization and treatment, general anesthesia for surgery, and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide≥126.65 pg/mL were risk factors for SAE after cardiac catheterization for ACHD-PH patients. The risk prediction model based on these factors has a high predictive value and can be applied to the risk assessment of SAE after interventional therapy in ACHD-PH patients to help clinicians perform early intervention.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of anatomical landmark method (ALM) versus ultrasound (US)-guided internal jugular vein (IJV) catheterization in pediatric patients. MethodsDatabases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 10, 2016), CNKI, CBM, WanFang Data and CNKI were searched from inception to October 2016 to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of landmark-guided versus ultrasound-guided IJV catheterization in pediatric patients who underwent elective surgery. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform meta-analysis. ResultsA total of 13 RCTs involving 1 026 pediatric patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, the overall success rate (RR=1.21, 95%CI 1.09 to 1.34, P=0.000 5) and arterial puncture rate (RR=0.19, 95%CI 0.07 to 0.50, P=0.000 7) of US-guided IJV catheterization were both significantly superior to the ALM group. Whereas there was no significant difference between two groups as for the incidence of hematoma formation (RR=0.35, 95%CI 0.09 to 1.31, P=0.12). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that, for IJV catheterization of pediatric patients, both the effectiveness and safety of ultrasound-guided technique are better than the landmark-guided. Since the quantity and quality of included studies are limited, the conclusion of this study needs more high quality studies to verify.
ObjectiveTo discuss the effect of the whole-course management model of intermittent catheterization (IC) in patients with neurogenic bladder (NB).MethodsPatients with NB caused by incomplete spinal cord injury admitted to Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of West China Hospital of Sichuan University between May and October 2019 were selected. According to the random number table, the patients were randomly divided into the trial group and the control group. The control group adopted the traditional management mode of IC, and the trial group adopted the whole-course management mode of IC. The urination diary (single catheterization volume, residual urine volume, and times of urine leakage), bacteria count and leukocyte count in urine routine were compared between the two groups.ResultsFinally 80 patients were included, with 40 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in urination diary, bacteria count or leukocyte count in urine routine between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in urination diary in the second week of management (P>0.05). At the 12th week of management, there were statistically significant differences in urination diary between the two groups (P<0.05). The bacteria count and leukocyte count in the second and 12th week of the management in the trial group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe whole-course management of IC for patients with NB caused by incomplete spinal cord injury can effectively improve bladder volume, and reduce residual urine volume and times of urine leakage. It also can reduce the incidence of urinary tract infection, reduce urinary complications, and ultimately improve the quality of life of patients.
