Trans-radial access (TRA) has been a common approach to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Comparing with trans-femoral access (TFA), TRA is used as an alternative approach for PCI with less local complications, higher comfort level, and better outcome. In recent years, TRA has been paid more and more attention in peripheral vascular interventions. We reviewed recent developments in peripheral vascular intervention using TRA, with detail summary of the effectiveness, safety, limits, and future developments of it, aiming to improve the understanding and performance of TRA in interventionalists to benefit patients.
ObjectiveTo summarize clinical outcomes of atrial septal defect (ASD)occlusion for patients with ASD and tricuspid regurgitation (TR). MethodsBetween July 2006 and January 2012, 98 patients with ASD and TR under-went ASD occlusion in Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. There were 36 male and 62 female patients with their age aging from 2 months to 80 years. All ASD were secundum ASD with their diameter of 3-23 mm. There were 60 patients with mild TR, 28 patients with moderate TR, and 10 patients with severe TR. All the patients received ASD closure without specific management for TR, including 51 patients under digital subtraction angiography (DSA), 46 patients via a minithoracotomy approach, and 1 patient guided by transthoracic echocardiography. All the patients were followed up with echocardiography to evaluate changes of TR after ASD closure. ResultsThere was no in-hospital death. ASD occlusion was not successful in 1 patient who was found to have residual ASD shunt on the third postoperative day. Another patient underwent reexploration for abnormal bleeding on the third postoperative day. All the other patients had uneventful postoperative recovery. Eighty-four patients were followed up for 1-64 (26.56±21.35)months. During follow-up, the patient who have residual ASD shunt on the third postoperative day received open chest repair 6 months after discharge. TR of 73 patients (86.90%)improved in different degrees. Preoperative severe TR in 10 patients changed into mild TR in 8 patients, moderate TR in 1 patients and still severe TR in 1 patient. Preoperative moderate TR in 26 patients changed into none TR in 6 patients, mild TR in 18 patients and still moderate TR in 2 patients. Preoperative mild TR in 48 patients changed into none TR in 40 patients and still mild TR in 8 patients. ConclusionFor patients with ASD and TR, conservative treatment strategy is recommended. Simple ASD closure can provide satisfactory clinical outcomes, and also avoid adverse complications of cardiopulmonary bypass including myocardial injury and lung injury.
【摘要】 目的 探讨腰部放置衬垫物对经皮冠状动脉介入手术后卧床患者的作用。 方法 选取2008年7〖CD3/5〗12月于我科行经皮冠状动脉介入手术后50例患者,随机分为试验组25例和对照组 25 例。试验组在常规护理基础上予腰部放置衬垫物,对照组25例予常规护理,手术次日对患者进行视觉模拟量表测试方法(VAS)评分。 结果 试验组VAS评分秩和检验低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(Plt;0001);两组除烦躁外其他并发症无显著差异。 结论 冠状动脉介入手术后患者在平卧位制动时予腰椎弯曲处放置衬垫物可降低患者腰部疼痛程度。【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the effects of lumbar pad on bed patients who uhderwent percutaneous coronary intervention operation. Methods The 50 patients who uhderwent percutaneous coronary intervention operation in our deparment from July to December 2008，then randomly divided into experimental group(25 patients)and control group(25 patients). Control group were received conventional care，the experimental group were received lumbar pad based on the conventional care. The second day after operation，the patients were scored by visual analog scale test method (VAS). Results The VAS scores of experimental group was lower than control group，the difference was statistically significant (Plt;0001). The differences of other complications between two groups except fidgety were not statistically significant. Conclusions Coronary intervention after surgery，the patients in peripharyngeal braking to bend lumbar pad material can reduce the waist ache degree.
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) affects a wide population in China, and frequently coexists with other conditions as comorbidities. Moderate to severe TR is associated with a poor prognosis and medical treatment alone does not prevent progression of disease. Although minimal invasive catheter-based techniques might be an option for TR treatment in selected high risk patients, there is no relevant recommendations for the transcatheter treatment of TR in practice guidelines. Several transcatheter edge-to-edge repair devices are currently in preclinical and early clinical evaluation as potential novel treatment options for symptomatic TR in patients at increased risk for surgery, becoming as the most common technique applied for interventional TR treatment. Hence, the present study will introduce the clinical features of TR, the progress of edge-to-edge repair, and the application and challenges in the future.
Endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke has become the main therapy for large vessel occlusion. In addition to stent thrombectomy, in recent years, the application of aspiration thrombectomy is becoming more and more common. The physical principles of aspiration and stent thrombectomy extraction are different. The thrombus is captured by the negative pressure generated by suction through the contact between the reperfusion catheter and the thrombus, thus achieving cerebrovascular recanalization. Currently, more and more researches support the application of aspiration thrombectomy. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the aspiration thrombectomy compared with the stent thrombectomy and how to apply the aspiration technology reasonably are the hot issues concerned by everyone. This paper reviews the application and research progress of aspirating thrombectomy in order to provide reference for clinical treatment decisions.
