ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility of pipeline blood sampling test of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) when arteriovenous reversal connection occurs, and to explore the influence of pipeline blood sampling test on the results of CRRT when arteriovenous reversal connection occurs under different anticoagulation methods.MethodsSelected patients with arteriovenous reversals treated by CRRT in a third-class A hospital was selected from June 2018 to May 2019. Blood samples were collected from the front end of the CRRT pipeline (0-, 3-, and 5-min after the cease). Blood samples collected from the catheterization site were compared with those from the body vein for acid and alkali, respectively. The electrolyte and other results were analyzed and compared.ResultsA total of 80 patients were enrolled, including 40 with low molecular weight heparin and non-heparin, and 40 with citric acid. Under the anticoagulation condition of low molecular weight heparin and non-heparin, there was no difference in acid-base or electrolyte between body venous blood samples and pipeline blood samples (P>0.05). Under the anticoagulation condition of citric acid, 0-, 3-, and 5-min after the cease, the difference in free calcium between body venous blood samples and pipeline blood samples was significant (F=7.866, 6.691, 5.590, P<0.001). There was no difference in other acid-base or electrolyte results (P>0.05).ConclusionsLow molecular weight heparin and heparin-free anticoagulation can be tested by collecting blood samples from the front end of the pipeline without suspension of treatment in the case of arteriovenous reversal in CRRT. There was a difference between free calcium and body venous blood in anticoagulation with citric acid. It is not recommended to collect blood from pipes for examination Under the anticoagulationcondition of citric acid.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of No. 8 blood collection needles in connecting broken balloon tubes. MethodsThirty-six patients who underwent mechanical ventilation in the Intensive Care Unit between January 2010 and December 2013 were included as the study subjects. We divided them into two groups. Patients who had accidental rupture of balloon tube during intubation were regarded as the trial group, while those with normal ventilation were regarded as the control group, with each group having 18 patients. The trial group used No. 8 disposable blood collection needles to connect the balloon tubes. Pressure gauge produced in Germany was used to measure the balloon pressure continuously for four hours. Balloon pressure level, balloon leakage and tube dislocation within 24 hours were observed. ResultsThe balloon pressure at different time periods was not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). The leakage rate and complication rate were also not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). ConclusionsUsing No. 8 blood collection needles for connecting broken balloon tubes is effective, easy, and convenient, and the balloon can be maintained at a constant pressure. It solved many previous clinical problems such as high cost, high complication rate, high death rate and medical disputes.
Objective To evaluate the effect and safety of infantile femoral vein blood sampling with vacuum versus disposable needle. Methods Such databases as VIP, CNKI, CBM, Google Academic and Wanfang data were searched to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about infantile femoral vein blood sampling with vacuum versus disposable needle published from January 2000 to July 2010. The studies were screened according to the inclusive and exclusive criteria, the data were extracted, the methodology quality was assessed, and meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.0 software. Results A total of 15 RCTs were included. Of 3 490 patients in all, 1 770 were in the treatment group and 1 726 were in the control group. The baseline conditions were reported in 14 studies, and the random methods were mentioned in 11 RCTs. All studies didn’t report the allocation concealment and blind method. Only 2 RCTs reported separately that, the degree of neonatal pain was lower in the treatment group (Plt;0.01), and the satisfaction of parents was higher in the treatment group (Plt;0.01). Four RCTs compared the sampling time between the two groups without meta-analysis mentioned due to the disunity of standard, only the descriptive outcomes showed a shorter time in the treatment group. The meta-analysis showed that, compared with the control group, the reject rate of sample quality was lower (RR=0.20, 95%CI 0.15 to 0.26), the success rate of one time sampling was higher (RR=1.20, 95%CI 1.16 to 1.24), the injury of local tissue was slighter (RR=0.62, 95%CI 0.45 to 0.86), and the iatrogenic contamination was lower (RR=0.62, 95%CI 0.45 to 0.86) in the treatment group. Conclusion This review shows that the vacuum sampling is superior to the disposable needle sampling for domestic infantile femoral vein blood collection. Due to the low quality of the included studies with high possibility of bias, this conclusion needs to be further verified by performing more high-quality studies.
