We propose an action guideline for promoting the high-quality development of rehabilitation services in public hospitals, which is based on a Delphi method questionnaire on the opinions of front-line clinical rehabilitation experts, and integrated with relevant literature and evidences. This guideline introduces 31 specific action plans from 7 dimensions, including standardization of basic rehabilitation settings, standardization of clinical rehabilitation techniques, improvement of the tertiary rehabilitation system, standardization of emergency rehabilitation, standardization of rehabilitation education, standardization of rehabilitation management, and promotion of scientific and technological innovation in rehabilitation medicine.
The prevalence of developmental delay (DD) in children worldwide is still on the rise, and its causes are complex and diverse, causing varying degrees of impact on the development of the sensory nervous system in the brain of children. Sensory integration training is a treatment method that applies sensory stimulation and comprehensive activities. It is currently widely used in children with DD. This therapy can effectively improve the development and integration of the sensory system in children with DD. It also enhances the individual’s ability to adapt to external stimuli, promoting their development in language, motor, and cognitive functions. This article explores the relevant mechanisms of sensory integration training and DD, as well as the current status and effects of its application in DD children, in order to promote the development and progress of related research fields.
Totally thoracoscopic surgery is a branch of minimally invasive cardiac surgeries, and its operational indicators are expanding with the development of the medical and imaging devices compared with median sternotomy and other minimally invasive cardiac surgeries (such as thoracoscope-assisted small incision surgery and robotic surgery). The learning curve is significantly shortened through the professional technique training. Totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery has many advantages, such as minor trauma, few serious complications, fast recovery, high patient acceptance and being suitable to our country's current situation. Therefore it will be one main direction of minimally invasive cardiac surgery. This article mainly introduced the current status of totally thoracoscopic technology in the field of cardiac surgery in China.
Severe psychomotor developmental delay resulting from early postnatal (within 3 months) seizures can be diagnosed as Early-Infantile Developmental and Epileptic encephalopathies (EIDEE). Its primary etiologies include structural, hereditary, metabolic and etc. The main pathogenesis may be related to the inhibition of normal physiological activity of the brain by abnormal electrical activity and the damage of the brain neural network. Ohtahara syndrome and Early Myoclonic Encephalopathy (EME) are typical types of EIDEE. The principle of treatment is to improve the cognitive and developmental function by controlling frequent seizures. When the seizure is difficult to control with drugs, surgical evaluation should be performed as soon as possible, and surgical treatment is the first choice for patients suitable for surgery. The types of surgery can be divided into excision surgery, dissociation surgery, neuromodulation surgery and etc. The current status of surgical treatment of EIDEE was described, and the curative effect of surgical treatment was explored, so as to help clinicians choose appropriate treatment methods.
Under the background of high-quality development of public hospitals and from the perspective of medical technology management, this paper discusses the high-quality development path of medical technology management in West China Hospital, Sichuan University. By sorting out the development context of restricted medical technology management in this medical institution, it concludes that there are four problems in restricted medical technology management at present: lack of standardized management system, non-unified surgery grading management, technology management information level to be improved, and the after-effect evaluation and transformation mechanism of medical technology being not perfect. It is proposed that establishing standardized management system, unifying surgical grading catalogue, constructing intelligent information system and establishing achievement transformation mechanism are important ways to strengthen medical technology management.
Objective To explore the application of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) clinics in fetal developmental abnormalities. Methods A retrospective analysis method was used to collect case data of fetal developmental abnormalities and completion of prenatal MDT clinics diagnosis and treatment in pregnant women who were registered in the Department of Obstetrics of West China Second Hospital, Sichuan University between December 2021 and November 2022. The situation of pregnant women and fetuses was summarized and analyzed. Results There were 19362 registered pregnant women, of which 1125 (5.8%) had abnormal fetal development. Among them, 272 (24.2%) received prenatal MDT clinics diagnosis and treatment. Fetal developmental abnormalities were mainly characterized by structural abnormalities (208 cases, 76.5%), with the top three being central nervous system abnormalities, circulatory system abnormalities, and multiple malformations. There were 202 pregnant women who continue to conceive, and 70 cases had undergone induced labor, with an induced labor rate of 25.7%. The top three main causes of induced abortion were multiple malformations, central nervous system abnormalities, and circulatory system abnormalities. After prenatal MDT clinics diagnosis and treatment, the diagnosis of fetal developmental abnormalities in 46 pregnant women were corrected. Conclusion Prenatal MDT clinics are helpful for the early comprehensive evaluation of fetal developmental abnormalities and the determination of diagnosis and treatment plans.
Objective To observe the retinal ultrastructure of the human fetal at the age of 9 months, and to investigate the clinical significance of the observation on retinal neuron development during the prenatal period.Methods Four human fetal eyes of 2 fetus at the gestational age of 9 months, including 1 at 35 and the other at 36 weeks, were obtained after termination of pregnancy due to trauma. The gestational ages of the fetus were estimated according to both last menstrual period (LMP) of the pregnant women and the weight/crownheel length of fetus at the delivery. From each eyeball, 4 pieces of retina at the posterior pole were obtained and observed after specimens handling according to the procedure of routine electron microscopy. Eight pieces of retina which were randomly selected from total of 16 pieces of retina in each group were processed and observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Permissions from pregnant women and family members were guaranteed.Results At the gestational age of 9 months, the outer nuclear layer of fetal retina contained 5 to 6 layers of photoreceptor cells (PRC), and sphericallike membrane structures were found outside of the outer limiting membrane (OLM). Among many tightaligned inner segments of PRCs there was zonula adherens of OLM, mitochondrias at inner side of OLM, and cilium at outer side of OLM. Outer segment of PRCs were short and contained a few irregularly arranged disc membrane. Some PRC had a multishaped nucleus in which equal amount of euchromatin and heterochromatin. There were only few and thin axon branches from photoreceptor cells, and very few axons contacted with inner nuclear layer (INL) and no typical synapse was found. The INL contained 4 to 5 layers of cell bodies, in which many cellular nuclear had uneven density of euchromatin and heterochromatin; some were lobulated nucleus with clear karyotheca. In inner plexiform layer (IPL), the nerve cells had small branches, and only little connection among the synapses and few synapse structures were found. Although not many retinal ganglion cells (RGC) existed,RGC had both intact cell membrane and some rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER).The karyotheca of RGC had double-layers structures, and the nucleus was mainly consisted of euchromatin. Internal limiting membrane (ILM) had doublelayer membrane structures, and the wellarranged nerve fiber layer was located at the outer side of ILM, with some micropores on the surface. Conclusions At the gestational age of 9 months, all layers of the human retinal has been formed, but some cell structure and cell connections are not yet mature, suggesting that at this time of period, human retina is still at an important stage of developing and remodeling.
Objective To scientifically construct a self-management behavior scale for postoperative patients with osteoporotic fractures, in order to assess the self-management behavior level of this patient population. Methods Between November 2022 and February 2023, a scale item pool was constructed using literature analysis and expert panel discussions. A preliminary version of the scale was formed based on feedback from 30 experts and 15 patients. From March 2023 to March 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to survey 230 patients post-osteoporotic fracture surgery from a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou. Cronbach’s α coefficient, split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability were used to assess the reliability of the scale, while content validity and exploratory factor analysis were used to evaluate its validity. Results The developed scale consisted of 5 dimensions and 27 items. The content validity index for each item ranged from 0.933 to 1.000. Exploratory factor analysis extracted 5 common factors, explaining 65.964% of the cumulative variance. The overall Cronbach’s α coefficient, split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability were 0.934, 0.780, and 0.958, respectively. The Cronbach’s α coefficient, split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability for each dimension ranged from 0.849 to 0.897, 0.816 to 0.904, and 0.826 to 0.894, respectively. Conclusions The self-management behavior scale for post-osteoporotic fracture surgery patients demonstrates good reliability and validity. It is a highly authoritative and scientific tool that can be used effectively to assess self-management behaviors in these patients and provide a basis for developing personalized self-management interventions.
Objective By comparing with the traditional X-ray template measurement method, to explore the accuracy of artificial intelligence preoperative planning system (AI-HIP) to predict the type of prosthesis and guide the placement of prosthesis before total hip arthroplasty (THA) in adult patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Methods Patients with DDH scheduled for initial THA between August 2020 and August 2022 were enrolled as study object, of which 28 cases (28 hips) met the selection criteria were enrolled in the study. Among them, there were 10 males and 18 females, aged from 34 to 77 years, with an average of 59.3 years. There were 12 cases of the left DDH and 16 cases of the right DDH. According to DDH classification, there were 10 cases of Crowe type Ⅰ, 8 cases of type Ⅱ, 5 cases of type Ⅲ, and 5 cases of type Ⅳ. According to Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) staging of osteonecrosis of the femoral head, 13 cases were in stage Ⅲ and 15 cases in stage Ⅳ. The disease duration was 2.5-23.0 years (mean, 8.6 years). The limb length discrepancy (LLD) was 11.0 (8.0, 17.5) mm. Before operation, the prosthesis types of all patients were predicted by AI-HIP system and X-ray template measurement method, respectively. And the preoperative results were compared with the actual prosthesis type during operation in order to estimate the accuracy of the AI-HIP system. Then, the differences in the acetabular abduction angle, acetabular anteversion angle, femoral neck osteotomy position, tip-shoulder distance, and LLD were compared between preoperative planned measurements by AI-HIP system and actual measurement results after operation, in order to investigate the ability of AI-HIP system to evaluate the placement position of prosthesis. Results The types of acetabular and femoral prostheses predicted based on AI-HIP system before operation were consistent with the actual prostheses in 23 cases (82.1%) and 24 cases (85.7%), respectively. The types of acetabular and femoral prostheses predicted based on X-ray template measurement before operation were consistent with the actual prostheses in 16 cases (57.1%) and 17 cases (60.7%), respectively. There were significant differences between AI-HIP system and X-ray template measurement (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in acetabular abduction angle, acetabular anteversion angle, femoral neck osteotomy position, and tip-shoulder distance between AI-HIP system and actual measurement after operation (P>0.05). LLD after operation was significantly lower than that before operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the LLD predicted based on AI-HIP system and the actual measurement after operation (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with the traditional X-ray template measurement method, the preoperative planning of AI-HIP system has better accuracy and repeatability in predicting the prosthesis type. It has a certain reference for the prosthesis placement of adult DDH.
