  • Clinical Effect of Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation on Severe Acute Pancreatitis Combined with Acute Lung Injury in Emergency

    ObjectiveTo analyze the effect of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) on the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) combined with lung injury [acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)] in emergency treatment. MethodsFifty-six patients with SAP combined with ALI/ARDS treated between January 2013 and March 2015 were included in our study. Twenty-eight patients who underwent NPPV were designated as the treatment group, while the other 28 patients who did not undergo NPPV were regarded as the control group. Then, we observed patients' blood gas indexes before and three days after treatment. The hospital stay and mortality rate of the two groups were also compared. ResultsBefore treatment, there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of pH value and arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) (P>0.05). Three days after treatment, blood pH value of the treatment group and the control group was 7.41±0.07 and 7.34±0.04, respectively, with a significant difference (P<0.05); the PaO2 value was respectively (60.60±5.11) and (48.40±3.57) mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa), also with a significant difference (P<0.05). The hospital stay of the treatment group and the control group was (18.22±3.07) and (23.47±3.55) days with a significant difference (P<0.05); and the six-month mortality was 17% and 32% in the two groups without any significant difference (P>0.05). ConclusionIt is effective to treat patients with severe acute pancreatitis combined with acute lung injury in emergency by noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.

  • Analysis of Correlation between Early Injury Assessment Indexes and Length of Stay in First-line Hospitals for Victims Injured in the Wenchuan Earthquake

    ObjectiveTo explore the possible association between early injury assessment indexes and the length of stay (LOS) in first-line hospitals, in order to help the hospitals take advantage of resource effectively and transfer victims reasonably during earthquakes. MethodWe retrospectively analyzed the medical information of 3 576 traumatic patients injured in the Wenchuan Earthquake who were transferred to 242 first-line medical institutes between 14:28, May 12th and 14:30, May 19th in 2008. Three kinds of 15 variables were extracted for the analysis, including gender, age, heart or lung disease, pre-hospital time, head injury, trunk injury, open injury, crush injury, asphyxia, body temperature, heart rate, respiration, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and Glasgow coma score. Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis was performed to identify the factors associated with LOS. ResultsThe multiple linear regression analysis showed that age as well as other six factors affected LOS significantly (P<0.05). The partial regression coefficients of age, pre-hospital time, head injury, trunk injury, crush injury, complication of cardiac or pulmonary disease, and Glasgow coma score were -0.062, 0.157, 3.703, 4.111, 12.602, 14.762 and -1.312, respectively. ConclusionsEarthquake trauma patients with older age, long pre-hospital time, head injury, trunk injury, heart or lung disease, crush injury, and lower Glasgow coma score are at increased risk for extended LOS.

  • Predictive value of triglycerides-total cholesterol-body weight index for prolonged postoperative length of stay in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting

    ObjectiveTo investigate the predictive value of a new nutritional index, triglycerides-total cholesterol-body mass index (TCBI), for prolonged postoperative hospital stay in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG). MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of CABG patients admitted to Wuhan Asian Heart Hospital, Wuhan University of Science and Technology from January 2022 to March 2024. Based on the postoperative hospital stay duration of CABG patients, they were divided into two groups: normal hospital stay group (≤14 days) and prolonged hospital stay group (>14 days). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent factors associated with prolonged postoperative hospital stay in CABG patients. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was employed to evaluate the predictive value of TCBI for prolonged postoperative hospital stay. ResultsA total of 460 patients were included, with 289 males (62.8%) and 171 females (37.2%), with an average age of 67 years (range 35-83 years). The TCBI level in the prolonged hospital stay group was significantly lower than that in the normal hospital stay group [1161.71 (825.36, 1511.78) vs. 1777.60 (1354.53, 2448.60), P<0.001]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that drinking history (OR=2.222, P=0.022), low absolute lymphocyte count (OR=0.169, P<0.001), low serum albumin (OR=0.624, P<0.001), and low TCBI (OR=0.816, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for prolonged postoperative hospital stay in CABG patients. ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve for TCBI to predict prolonged hospital stay was 0.808, with a sensitivity of 72.8% and specificity of 70.9% at a cutoff value of 1446.11. ConclusionTCBI is an effective predictive indicator for prolonged postoperative hospital stay in CABG patients, and the risk of prolonged postoperative hospital stay is higher in CABG patients with TCBI ≤1446.11.

  • Association between cultural level of patients with colorectal cancer and hospitalization management process and length of hospitalization: a real-world study based on DACCA

    ObjectiveTo analyze the association between the cultural level and hospitalization management process and length of hospitalization of the colorectal patients served by West China Hospital of Sichuan University as a regional center in the current version of the Database from Colorectal Cancer (DACCA). MethodAccording to the established screening criteria, eligible colorectal cancer patients were collected from the updated version of DACCA on June 29, 2022. The analyzed data items included gender, age, BMI, blood type, marriage, waiting time before admission, preoperative hospitalization time, postoperative hospitalization time, total hospitalization time, and management process, and patients were divided into illiterate group, primary education group, medium education group, and higher education group according to their educational level, then compared the hospitalization management process and length of hospitalization of each group. ResultsA total of 4 765 eligible data were screened, with secondary education being the most prevalent (2 792, 58.6%), followed by primary (1 337, 28.1%) and higher education (417, 8.7%), and illiteracy being the least prevalent (219, 4.6%). In the classification of management processes, “regular” account for the majority (4 219, 88.5%), followed by “enhanced”(274, 5.8%), “individual” was third (231, 4.8%), and “rapid” was the least (41, 0.9%). There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of waiting time before admission, preoperative hospitalisation time and postoperative hospitalisation time among patients with different literacy levels (P=0.371, P=0.095, P=0.352), but there was a statistically significant difference in total hospitalisation time (P=0.021), with a significant difference in total hospitalisation length between illiterate patients and patients with medium education (P=0.041). There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of inpatient management processes of patients in different literacy groups (χ2=15.2, P=0.085). ConclusionsAnalysis of the DACCA data revealed a statistically significant difference in total hospitalisation time between patients with illiteracy and those with medium education. However, the choice of hospitalisation management process was similar for patients with different literacy levels, which needs to be further analysed for the reasons.

  • The application of modified fast-track surgery in the perioperative period of open partial hepatectomy

    Objective To verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the modified fast-track surgery (FTS) in the perioperative period of open liver resection. Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was carried out in 188 consecutive patients undergoing open liver resection between March and December 2014 in the Department of Liver Surgery of West China Hospital. The modified fast recovery procedure and standard rehabilitation procedure were compared in terms of length of hospital stay after operation, hospitalization cost, complications and readmission rate. Results A total of 188 consecutive patients were enrolled in the trial. The analysis included 87 patients in the modified fast recovery group and 89 in the standard rehabilitation group. Compared with the standard rehabilitation group, the modified fast recovery group had a shorter length of hospital stay [(5.70±1.47)vs. (7.26±1.96) days] and a lower cost [(42.7±6.7)vs. (47.3±12.5) thousand yuan], and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were 20 complication cases in the modified group and 39 in the standard group with significant difference (P=0.003). There was no significant difference in the rate of readmission between the two groups (P=1.000). Compared with the standard group, patients in the modified group had less pain 8 hours, the 1st and 2nd days after surgery, better postoperative activities of daily living, more initiative cough times and off-bed activity times, longer duration of movement, and earlier bowel recovery and exhausting, and all the above differences were significantly different (P<0.05). Stepwise regression analysis showed that postoperative complications and bowel recovery and exhausting time were independent related factors for postoperative hospital stay (P<0.001). Conclusions Multimodal analgesia-based fast recovery procedure is feasible and effective in the perioperative period of partial hepatectomy. It can shorten the time of hospitalization and reduce the cost of hospitalization.

  • Risk Factors for Multiple Nosocomial Infection in Adults: A Case-control Study

    ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors for multiple nosocomial infection in adult hospitalized patients, so as to provide references for the control of nosocomial infection. MethodsThe clinical data of adults hospitalized patients with nosocomial infection in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University during Jan. 2015 to Dec. 2015 were collected, and the susceptible factors of multiple nosocomial infections referencing to the single nosocomial infection were analyzed. Results1226 cases (1368 case-times) of nosocomial infection were found and the infection rate and the case-time infection rate were 2.24% and 2.49%, respectively. Single factor analysis results showed that the top four risk factors of multiple nosocomial infection included hospital stay ≥30 days (25.5%), first infection time ≥30 days (23.2%), incision type Ⅲ (16.7%), and surgery (13.4%). Logistic regression analysis result showed, after adjusting the influence of age and gender, longer hospital stay was the independent risk factor of multiple nosocomial infection referencing to single nosocomial infection (OR=3.475, 95%CI 2.545 to 4.745). ConclusionLonger hospital stay is the independent risk factor of multiple nosocomial infection of adult hospitalized patients. Measures should be taken to shorten the length of stay in hospital and reduce the exposure to the high-risk environment, so as to reduce the incidence of multiple nosocomial infection.

  • Treatment of Spontaneous Pneumothorax

    ①在自发性气胸的治疗方面:目前尚无足够高质量的临床证据确定任何干预或非干预措施对自发性气胸的治疗更有效.现有2个小样本的随机对照试验(RCT)显示,胸腔闭式引流比穿刺抽气治疗气体消散更快,但穿刺抽气治疗更能减少患者痛苦和住院时间;1个小样本的随机对照试验显示,采用标准的胸腔闭式引流管或细管,两者的置管时间无差异,但对大量积气的患者,标准管的气体吸收率高于细管;另1个小样本的随机对照试验显示,在使用瓣膜单向阀或水封引流瓶方面,两者对患者的气胸吸收率无影响,但使用瓣膜单向阀更能减少患者痛苦和住院时间;在胸腔闭式引流管连接负压吸引方面,1个小样本的随机对照试验显示,是否连接负压吸引对疗效无影响.②在自发性气胸复发的预防方面:2个随机对照试验和1个非随机对照试验显示,化学性胸腔粘连术比非化学性胸腔粘连术更能减少自发性气胸的复发率,但胸腔粘连术同时也引起患者疼痛和住院时间的延长;无足够临床证据证明需在首次或自发性气胸复发时采用胸腔粘连术;无足够临床证据进行外科和化学性胸腔粘连术疗效的比较,仅有1个小样本的随机对照试验提示进行电视胸腔镜手术比直接开胸术的住院时间短,但在降低复发率方面,两者无显著性统计学差异,但由于样本量的问题,尚不排除两者问有临床意义差异.

  • Correlation analysis of four triage methods for the length of hospital stay, length of ICU stay and the severity of injury in Lushan earthquake victims

    ObjectiveTo evaluate four triage methods including START, Care-Flight, rapid emergency medicinescore (REMS) and Sacco score for the length of hospital stay, length of ICU stay and the severity of injury in Lushan earthquake victims.MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed in 41 cases of critical earthquake victims in the emergency department of West China Hospital from April 20th to April 26th, 2013 in Lushan earthquake. The length of hospital stay and length of ICU stay were compared for four triage methods. The correlation between four triage methods and length of hospital stay, length of ICU stay and injury severity score (ISS) were also analyzed.ResultsThe length of ICU stay for victims whose triage level were red by START triage method or Care-Flight triage method was longer than whose triage levels were yellow. But the length of hospital stay for victims between the two triage levels had no significant difference. In addition, there was a correlation between critical victims and the length of ICU stay in the classification of START triage method and Care-Flight triage method.ConclusionThe length of ICU stay of the victims, whose triage level are red by START triage or Care-Flight triage methods, are longer than whose triage level are yellow. The levels of START and Care-Flight triage are correlated to length of ICU stay.

  • Analyses of Length of Hospital Stay and Expenses Associated with Hysterectomy

    Objective To examine the length of hospital stay and expenses associated with hysterectomy in China and to compare the results with those from developed counties, so as to provide comparative information about hysterectomy in China. Methods Hospital discharge data on hysterectomies performed in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2002 to 2006 were retrieved. The cases were classified into 3 groups, namely abdominal, laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomy. The length of hospital stay and expenses associated with hysterectomy were analyzed retrospectively. Results Records of 5975 women who underwent hysterectomies were analyzed, including 3295 cases (65.7%) of abdominal hysterectomy, 1543 (25.8%) cases of laparoscopic hysterectomy (25.8%) and 507 (8.5%) cases of vaginal hysterectomy. The median (mean) postoperative length of stay were 6 (6.4) days, 4 (4.8) days and 5 (5.6) days in the abdominal, laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomy groups, respectively. These were approximately 2 days longer than those in developed countries. The median total expenses were 6109.0, 7296.3 and 5265.2 RMB in the abdominal, laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomy groups, respectively. After adjustment for the differences in Gross National Income (GNI) per capita between China and developed countries, the expenses associated with hysterectomy in China were 8.7 and 1.8-4.9 times higher than those in UK and USA, respectively. Conclusion Compared with abdominal and vaginal hysterectomies, laparoscopic hysterectomy is associated with a shorter postoperative length of stay, but with higher hospital cost. Compared with developed countries, hysterectomy is actually more expensive and associated with a longer hospital stay in China.

  • Risk factors analysis of prolonged length of hospital stay after lobectomy for lung cancer patients

    Objective To analyze the risk factors associated with prolonged length of hospital stay (PLOS) after lobectomy for lung cancer patients. Methods The clinical records of 771 lung cancer patients undergoing lobectomy between May 2012 and June 2016 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. According to different length of hospital stay (LOS), 771 patients were divided into two groups, a normal LOS group and a PLOS group. In the normal LOS group, there were 551 patients including 234 females and 317 males with a median age of 59 years, whose LOS was shorter than 8.0 days. In the PLOS group, there were 220 patients including 72 females and 148 males with a median age of 60 years, whose LOS was no less than 8.0 days. Then, we analyzed the independent risk factors of PLOS by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results Univariate analysis showed that risk factors for PLOS included male, arrhythmias and atrioventricular block, smaller FVC%, unilateral pneumonectomy, operation and anesthesia duration, intraoperative blood loss and number of lymph node dissection in the operation (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the age ≥75 years (OR=4.100, 95%CI 1.677 to 10.026), unilateral pneumonectomy (OR=2.563, 95%CI 1.473 to 4.460), FVC% < 89.05% (OR=1.500, 95%CI 1.020 to 2.206), numbers of lymph node dissection≥ 13.5 (OR=1.826, 95%CI 1.262 to 2.642), operation duration≥126.5 min (OR=1.858, 95%CI 1.200 to 2.876) and arrhythmia (OR=2.944, 95%CI 1.380 to 6.284) were independent risk factors of PLOS (all P<0.05). Conclusion LOS is influenced by age, surgical type, FVC%, numbers of lymph node dissection, arrhythmia and operation duration. Careful assessment and appropriate management of risk factors are helpful to improve postoperative recovery after lobectomy for lung cancer patients.
