Objective To investigate the relationship between early fluid management and the conversion rate to surgery in patients with sever acute pancreatitis( SAP) .Methods The patients with SAP admitted in ICU in West China Hospital from July 2005 to June 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into four groups according to the quartile of the accumulated fluid balance in the first three days after admission in ICU( lt; 25% , 25% ～50% , 50% ～75% , and gt; 75% , respectively) . The major demographic data, clinical characteristics, mortality, and conversion rate to surgery were evaluated respectively. Results 208 patients were enrolled. For each quartile, the conversion rate to surgery decreased at first, and then increased along with the increase of the accumulated fluid balance. Significant difference existed between the second quartile with the lowest conversion rate to surgery and other three quartiles ( P lt; 0. 05) . Differences were also found in mortality and the score of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ( APACHEⅡ) on 24th and 48th hour between the first three quartiles and the last quartile with the highest mortality and APACHⅡ score( P lt;0. 05) . However, sex ratio, age, Ranson criteria, and the score of sequential organ failure assessment( SOFA) did not have significant differences among each quartile( P gt; 0. 05) . Conclusion Fluid management in early stage can influence conversion rate to surgery and mortality in patients with SAP.
Objective To evaluate the refined management effect of diagnosis related groups (DRG), summarize the experience of refined management, and put forward corrective measures for existing problems. Methods Patients who underwent day surgery services at Shantou Central Hospital between April 2021 and March 2023 were selected. According to the management mode, patients will be divided into a conventional management group (April 2021 to March 2022) and a refined management group (April 2022 to March 2023). The general condition, medical quality, and patient satisfaction indicators of two groups of patients were compared. And according to the DRG group stratification, the differences in medical indexes such as length of hospital stay, total hospitalization expenses, and postoperative complications between the two groups were analyzed. Results A total of 4 584 patients were included, including 1 686 in the conventional management group and 2 898 in the refined management group. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of patient source, surgical grade, and provincial weight coefficient (P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in gender, age, and discharge method (P>0.05). The satisfaction of the refined management group with surgical procedures, preoperative guidance, service attitude, and nursing skills was higher than that of the conventional management group (P<0.05). A total of 4 DRG groups (≥ 100 patients) were included, with 2 215 patients in the refined management group and 1 460 patients in the conventional management group. Among them, there were 1496 cases in the group CB39 (cataract surgery), 336 cases in the group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years old), 1412 cases in the group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), and 431 cases in the group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries). Among them, in the group CB39 (cataract surgery), group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years old), group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), and group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries), the total hospitalization cost and length of stay in the refined management group were lower than those in the conventional management group (P<0.05). In the group CB39 (cataract surgery) and group NE19 (vulvar, vaginal, and cervical surgeries), the incidence of postoperative complications in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05). In the group GE10 (inguinal and abdominal hernia surgery, age<17 years), the incidence of pain and incision bleeding in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05); In the group JB29 (partial mastectomy for non-malignant breast tumors), the incidence of incision infection in the refined management group was lower than that in the conventional management group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in other indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Carrying out refined management for day surgery can reduce medical expenses, shorten the length of hospital stay, improve medical quality, and promote the high-quality development of hospitals while ensuring medical safety.
Objective To explore the effect of applying evidence-based medicine theory to quality management in long-term-system clinical medicine teaching. Methods We introduced the concept of evidence-based quality management system of clinical medicine to the delivery of teaching with Internet-based teaching quality real time supervision system as the core. A special quality scale was used to assess the teaching quality of teachers and the results were analyzed by SPSS 10.0 using u test. Results The system stored 853 280 pieces of data from the years 2001 to 2003. Up to 96.4% (275/285) of the evaluated topics scored over 85 points. Whether the teachers had overseas experience or not and whether their ages were over 45 or not had no significant influence on the teaching quality (P ＞0.05), but their degrees had influence on the teaching quality (P ＜0.05). Conclusion In long-term-system clinical medicine teaching quality management, we should apply the concept and approach of EBM to our practice so that we can ensure that the teaching quality of long-term-system clinical medicine will improve steadily.
ObjectiveTo explore the application of clinical pathway in patients undergoing orthopedic day surgery.MethodsPatients who were scheduled for orthopedic treatment at Day Surgery Department of the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from May to October 2020 were selected as the clinical pathway group, and all of them were managed by clinical pathway. Patients who were scheduled for orthopedic treatment at Day Surgery Department of the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from May to October 2019 were selected as the routine group, and all of them were managed by conventional clinical methods. The general conditions of patients, physicians’ work efficiency, medical costs and medical quality were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe clinical pathway group included 246 patients, and the routine group included 391 patients. There was no significant difference in gender, age or disease distribution between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with the routine group, the clinical pathway group had obvious advantages in terms of average time spent by a physician in issuing a medical order each time [(5.64±3.29) vs. (2.12±1.05) min], average number of revisions per physician’s order (1.40±0.24 vs. 0.38±0.19), rate of filing medical records within 3 days (90.28% vs. 97.97%), hospital costs [(7462.10±1035.01) vs. (6252.52±1189.05) yuan], drug costs [(652.21±88.53) vs. (437.17±108.20) yuan], length of stay [(1.23±1.04) vs. (1.02±0.18) d] and delayed discharge rate (7.93% vs. 2.03%), with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of unplanned reoperation rate, unplanned rehospitalization rate, or patient satisfaction (P>0.05).ConclusionCompared with routine clinical management, clinical pathway management can improve work efficiency, reduce medical cost and improve medical quality more effectively in the implementation of orthopedic day surgery, which has very positive effects and is worthy of promotion and application.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the role of early surgical intervention in the treatment of fulminant acute pancreatitis (FAP).Methods Eight cases of FAP admitted to our institution from September 2003 to December 2004 were reviewed retrospectively.Results Averagely 3 organs dysfunction was diagnosed on admission or in the course of treatment in this group. One patient treated non-operatively was dead. Of 7 cases with early surgical intervention, one was died of ACS and ARF, One female patient with 32 weeks pregnancy survived, but the fetus was dead before surgery. Five cases were complicated with intra-abscess, which were cured re-operatively. Conclusion Early operative intervention in the treatment of FAP could prevent MODS and improve the survival.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been highlighted as one of the most important public health problems due to sharply climbing incidence and prevalence. To efficiently attenuate the disease burden and improve the disease management, not only active and effective treatment should be administrated, but also comprehensive follow-up nursing management with innovative and evolving spirits should be implemented. Thus dynamic changes of diseases could be acquired in time and patients are under appropriate medical instruction as soon as possible. This editorial is based on quickly developing medical big data resources and advanced internet techniques, from both aspects of patients and health care providers, briefly talking about integrated management strategy of CKD and its future development in China.
Day surgery wards have advantages such as the ability to quickly free up beds and possessing necessary medical resources, making them a focal department for the integration of emergency and routine medical care within healthcare institutions. The Day Surgery Nursing Committee of Sichuan Tianfu New Area Medical Association gathered experts from relevant fields, took into account the actual situation and previous practices of integrating emergency and routine medical care in day surgery wards, and developed this expert consensus. It covers the aspects of emergency plans, process mechanisms, spatial preparations, personnel preparations and deployment, material preparations, and information sharing and coordination of the management model of integrating emergency and routine medical care in day surgery wards, so as to provide professional guidance and references for the management model of integrating emergency and routine medical care in day surgery wards, and offer new ideas and methods to maximize patient treatment during emergency situations.
In recent years, day surgery has developed rapidly in China, but there is still a certain gap between domestic and international fields. The whole-process perioperative analgesia management standard is one of the necessities to ensure the rapid recovery and timely discharge of patients undergoing day surgery, and it is also an effective driving force to narrow the gap between domestic and international day surgery management. Based on the clinical experience of perioperative analgesia management for day surgery patients in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, this paper summarizes the implementation strategies, quality control of perioperative analgesia management and the construction of painless day surgery ward, and formulates the perioperative analgesia management standard for day surgery, which will provide a reference for the perioperative analgesia management for day surgery in China.
The purpose of evidence-based healthcare management is to prevent the overuse, underuse or misuse of some management measures, and to eliminate the gap between research and practice or the difference between best practices and conventional practices. Evidence-based healthcare management is still in an early stage of development. It also faces many challenges, which have aroused some criticism and even suspicion. This is closely related to the complexity of the management field itself and the lack of empirical research in the field. Considering the scarcity of high-quality health and medical resources in China, in order to improve the scientificalness of healthcare decision-making, we strongly appeal that promoting evidence-based healthcare management requires government-led, universal education, intensified research, scientific evaluation, technological innovation and integration.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the clinical efficacy and safety of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) prophylaxis with a single dose of tranexamic acid (TXA). MethodsThe Embase, PubMed, WanFang Data, VIP, CNKI, ChiCTR and Cochrane Library were electronically retrieved to collect clinical studies related to appraising the efficacy and safety in parturients after cesarean section used TXA perioperatively from inception to September, 2024. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using R software. A trial sequential analysis of outcomes was carried out to investigate the reliability and conclusiveness of findings. ResultsA total of 43 RCTs including 23 497 parturients that compared the prophylactic use of a single dose of TXA with placebo or no treatment in parturients undergoing cesarean delivery. The results of meta-analysis revealed that there was a significantly reduced risk of PPH (RR=0.52, 95%CI 0.40 to 0.67, P<0.01), total blood loss (SMD=−183.73mL, 95%CI −220.87 to −146.60, P<0.01), need for blood transfusion (RR=0.42, 95%CI 0.30 to 0.60, P<0.01), and use of additional uterotonics (RR=0.55, 95%CI 0.43 to 0.70, P<0.01) with TXA use. There were no statistical differences in thromboembolic events between TXA and control groups (RR=1.05, 95%CI 0.54 to 2.03, P=0.11), and results were consistently in favor of TXA use across subgroups, and trial sequential analyses. ConclusionTaken as a whole, existing evidence suggests that TXA can effectively reduce PPH in patients undergoing cesarean delivery. Further, prophylactic TXA administration for parturients significantly reduced blood loss and need for blood transfusion, without increasing adverse events and use of additional uterotonics, supporting its use as a safe and effective strategy for reducing PPH in this population.
