ObjectiveTo summarize the prevention and treatment of iatrogenic medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).MethodsThe relevant literature about iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA was summarized, and the symptoms, causes, preventions, and treatments were analyzed.ResultsPreventions on the iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA is significantly promoted. With the occurrence of MCL injuries, the femoral avulsion can be fixed with the screw and washer or the suture anchors; the tibial avulsion can be treated with the suture anchors fixation, bone staples fixation, or conservative treatment; the mid-substance laceration can be repaired directly; the autologous quadriceps tendon, semitendinosus tendon, or artificial ligament can be used for the patients with poor tissue conditions or obvious residual gap between the ligament ends; the use of implant with greater constraint can be the last alternative method.ConclusionNo consensus has been reached to the management of iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA. Different solutions and strategies can be integrated and adopted flexibly by surgeons according to the specific situation.
Objective The intercellular adhesion (ica) gene of Staphylococcus epidermidis (SE) is a key factor to bacterial aggregation, to analysis the genotype of iatrogenic SE and to explore the effect of iatrogenic SE ica operon on theformation of bacterial biofilm on the surface of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Methods Fifty-six cl inical isolates of iatrogenic SEwere selected, and PCR and gene sequencing were used to detect the genes related with bacterial biofilm formation. The genes contained 16S rRNA, autolysin (atlE), fibrinogen binding protein (fbe), and icaADB. The bacteria suspension of 1 × 105 cfu/mL iatrogenic SE was prepared; according to the test results of target genes, the PVC material and the genotype of icaADB+, atlE+, fbe+ strains were co-cultivated as the ica positive group; the PVC material and the genotype of icaADB-, atlE+, fbe+ strains were co-cultivated as the ica negative group. The thickness of biofilm and bacterial community quantity unit area on PVC materials were measured by confocal laser scanning microscope, and the surface structure of biofilm formation was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 hours. Results The positive rate of 16S rRNA of iatrogenic SE strains was 100% (56/56). The genotype of icaADB+, atlE+, and fbe+ strains accounted for 57.1% (32/56). The genotype of icaADB-, atlE+, and fbe+ strains accounted for 37.5% (21/56). The sequencing results showed that the product sequences of 16S rRNA, atlE, fbe, and icaADB were consistent with those in GenBank. With time, no significant bacterial biofilm formed on the surface of PVC in ica operon negative group. But in ica operon positive group, the number of bacterial community was gradually increased, and the volume of bacterial biofilms was gradually increased on the surface of PVC. At 24 hours, mature bacterial biofilm structure formed, and at 30 hours, the volume of bacterial biofilms was tending towards stabil ity. The thickness of biofilm (F=6 714.395, P=0.000) and the bacterial community quantity unit area on PVC materials (F=435.985, P=0.000) in ica operon positive groupwere significantly higher than those in ica operon negative group. Conclusion Iatrogenic SE can be divided into 2 types ofica operon negative and ica operon positive bacteria. The iatrogenic SE ica operon can strengthen bacterium biofilm formation capabil ity on PVC materials, bacterium community quantity, and thickness of biofilm, it plays an important role in bacterium biofilm formation on PVC materials.

Objective To formulate an evidence-based nursing scheme of eye care for an unconscious patient undergoing mechanical ventilation with eye complication. Methods Under the principle of PICO, the issue was put forward aiming directly at patient’s clinical manifestations, and the following databases as The Cochrane Library (Issue 12, 2011), PubMed (January 1980 to November 2011), EMbase (1974 to 2011) and CBM (1978 to 2011) were searched. Results A total of 3 guidelines, 2 systematic reviews and 9 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included. The evidence showed that eye cleaning was the very important part of eye care, and the commonly-used cleaning or rinsing solutions were saline and sterile water. Both moist cover and lubricating eye drops / ointment were used to prevent dryness in the eyes. For instance, polyethylene moisture covers could effectively prevent corneal abrasion, and lubricating eye drops / ointment were beneficial to eye observation, so these two methods needed to be properly selected in combination with patient’s conditions. Nurses had to assess the ability of the patient to close eyelids daily and helped the patient to close eyes, but the passive eyelids closure was inferior to the artificial tear ointment in the effect on preventing corneal abrasions; the integrated intervention of maintaining eyelids closure and forming eyeballs moisture chamber was more effective to prevent eye complications. According to the available evidence mentioned herein and the patient’s conditions, the following nursing scheme of eye care was formulated: cleaning the eyelids and peripheral skin using 0.9% saline gauze, covering the eyes with sterile polyethylene films which were fixed by anti-allergic adhesive tapes, changing the dressing every 12 hours, and observing closure of the eyelids every day. Seven days later, eye symptoms got obviously improved, with decreasing secretion, without congestion and chemosis, and negative results of fluorescein staining test. Conclusion Eye cleaning removes secretion and bacteria from the eyes. Polyethylene film prevents tear from evaporation and fully promotes the immune function of tears which can reduce the risk of infection. Eyelids closure and local moisture environment benefit the corneal epithelial repair.
31 cases of iatrogenic cholangic injury reported. 28 cases followed from 9 months to 6 years. iatrogenic cholangic injury is not an uncommon occurence main cases are inregular procedures, and carelessness in this group, only 9 cases were found intraoperatively. The main manifestations after injury were aggravating jaundice and/or bilious peritonitis. Symptoms, signs, B-type ultrsound and sometimes ERCP were used for diagnosis. Once the injury ascertained ends are the best treatment, an alternative Roux-Y Cholangiojejunostomy was also commonly used. In this group, 4 cases received the first methos and all with good results; 23 patients treated by the second methos, 17 were uneventful, 4 experienced more or less abdomenal pain, 2 suffered difinite repeated cholangitis and another 1 died.
