ObjectiveTo explore the influence of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) on intestinal flora in patients with colorectal cancer.MethodsBy convenient sampling method, 60 patients with colorectal cancer were selected from August 2018 to December 2019 in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of West China Hospital of Sichuan University and randomly divided into ERAS group and traditional treatment group (traditional group). Among them, the perioperative clinical management was carried out according to the ERAS management and traditional treatment process in the the ERAS group and in the traditional group, respectively. The fresh fecal samples were collected within 24 h after admission and the first natural defecation after operation. The bacterial 16 Sr DNA V3–V4 region was sequenced by Illumina MiSeq sequencer, and the results were analyzed by bioinformatics.ResultsA total of 60 patients with colorectal cancer were included, 30 cases in the traditional group and 27 cases in the ERAS group (3 people temporarily withdrew from the study). There were no significant differences in the basic informations between the two groups (P>0.05). ① Before or after operation, there were no significant differences in Shannon index and Simpson index between the two groups. The difference between preoperative and postoperative comparison in the same group was also not statistically significant (P>0.05). ② Beta diversity analysis showed that there was no significant difference in community composition between the traditional group and the ERAS group before operation, and there was a clear boundary between the traditional group and the ERAS group after operation. ③ At the phylum level, compared with the preoperative abundance, the postoperative abundance Firmicutes decreased by 26.5% and 5.5% in the traditional and ERAS group, respectively; Bacteroidetes increased by 21.6% and 4.7% in the traditional and ERAS group, respectively; Proteobacteria increased by 7.2% and 2.2% in the traditional and ERAS group, respectively. At the genus level, compared with the preoperative abundance, the postoperative abundance of Bacteroides in the traditional group increased by 17.6% and in the ERAS group decreased by 1.6%; Bifidobacterium decreased by 1.8% and 1.3% in the traditional group and in the ERAS group, respectively.ConclusionsERAS does not affect species diversity of intestinal flora. Although ERAS has some damage to structure of intestinal flora, it is weaker than traditional process, so it is more conducive to reconstruction and restoration of intestinal microecological environment.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of multidisciplinary doctor-nurse collaboration team on the perioperation management of geriatric patients with hip fractures.MethodsThe clinical data of 489 geriatric patients with hip fractures (femoral neck fracture and intertrochanteric fracture) between January 1st 2016 and January 1st 2018 was retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 279 patients were treated with the multidisciplinary doctor-nurse collaboration care (observation group) and 210 patients were treated with the conventional therapeutics and nursing care (control group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, type and classification of fracture, the interval between injury and admission, and Charlson index between the two groups (P>0.05). The surgery rates, time from hospitalization to operation, length of stay, and the incidences of perioperative complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe surgery rate was 90.32% (252/279) in observation group and 80.48% (169/210) in control group, showing significant difference between the two groups (χ2=9.703, P=0.002). The time from hospitalization to operation and length of stay in observation group [(5.39±2.47), (10.56±3.76) days] were significant shorter than those in control group [(6.13±2.79), (12.27±3.11) days] (t=−3.075, P=0.002; t=−5.330, P=0.000). The incidence of respiratory complications was 46.15% in control group and 30.56% in observation group; the incidence of cardiovascular system complications was 69.23% in control group and 51.19% in observation group; the incidence of cerebrovascular system complications was 20.12% in control group and 11.11% in observation group; the incidence of deep venous thrombosis was 40.24% in control group and 25.40% in observation group. The incidences of perioperative complications were significantly lower in observation group than in control group (P<0.05).ConclusionMultidisciplinary doctor-nurse collaboration team is conducive not only to improve the surgery rates, but also to reduce perioperative complications as well as shorten the length of stay and preoperative waiting time.
ObjectiveTo compare the perioperative outcomes between robot-assisted complex segmentectomy and simple segmentectomy for stage ⅠA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MethodsThe clinical data of 285 patients with NSCLC undergoing robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) in our hospital from January 2015 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 105 males and 180 females aged 23-83 years. The patients were divided into a complex segmentectomy group (n=170) and a simple segmentectomy group (n=115) according to tumor location and surgical method. The clinical pathological baseline characteristics and perioperative outcomes between the two groups were compared, including operative time, blood loss volume, dissected lymph nodes, conversion rate, postoperative duration of drainage, postoperative hospital stay, the incidence of persistent air leakage and postoperative 30 d mortality. ResultsThere was no statistical difference in baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). No postoperative 30 d death was observed. One patient in the complex segmentectomy group was transferred to thoracotomy. No statistical difference was observed between the two groups in the operative time (97.36±38.16 min vs. 94.65±31.67 min, P=0.515), postoperative duration of drainage (3.69±1.85 d vs. 3.60±1.90 d, P=0.679), postoperative hospital stay (4.07±1.85 d vs. 4.05±1.97 d, P=0.957), dissected lymph nodes (5.15±3.53 vs. 5.13±2.93, P=0.952), incidence of blood loss volume<100 mL (98.2% vs. 99.1%, P=0.650), and incidence of postoperative persistent air leakage (6.5% vs. 5.2%, P=0.661). ConclusionThe safety and effectiveness of robot-assisted complex segmentectomy and simple segmentectomy are satisfactory in the treatment of stage ⅠA NSCLC. The perioperative results of RATS complex segmentectomy and simple segmentectomy are similar.
Lidocaine is an amide local anaesthetic. In recent years, clinical evidence shows that perioperative intravenous lidocaine injection plays an active role in anti-inflammation, analgesia, anti-tumor and organ protection. Postoperative pain is severe in patients after thoracic surgery, and the incidence of pulmonary complications and cognitive impairment is high. These adverse reactions and complications are closely related to the inflammatory reaction after thoracic surgery. Intravenous infusion of lidocaine may have some effects on alleviating these adverse reactions and complications. Thus, this article reviews the current status of intravenous lidocaine injection in thoracic surgery and explores the related mechanisms to optimize the management of anaesthesia during the perioperative period of thoracic surgery.
ObjectiveTo explore the postoperative characteristics and management experience of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) undergoing cardiac and vascular surgery. MethodsFrom December 7, 2022 to January 5, 2023, the patients with COVID-19 who were admitted to Cardiovascular Hospital Affiliated to Kunming Medical University and underwent cardiac and vascular surgery were selected. The clinical history, surgical information, postoperative recovery process and treatment plan were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsThere were 18 patients in this group, including 11 (61.1%) males and 7 (38.9%) females, with an average age of 58.1±10.9 years. There were 7 patients of hypertension, 5 patients of diabetes, 3 patients of respiratory diseases, and 2 patient of chronic renal insufficiency. There were 5 (27.8%) patients receiving emergency operations and 13 (72.2%) elective operations. All the 18 patients underwent cardiac and vascular surgery in the period of COVID-19, and the time between the last positive nucleic acid test and the surgery was 1.50 (1.00, 6.25) days. There were 8 patients of pulmonary imaging changes, including 3 patients with chest patch shadow, 3 patients with thickened and disordered lung markings, and 2 patients with exudative changes before operation. Antiviral therapy was not adopted in all patients before operation. Three patients were complicated with viral pneumonia after operation, including 2 patients with high risk factors before operation, who developed into severe pneumonia after operation, and underwent tracheotomy. One patient with thrombus recovered after anticoagulation treatment. Another patient of mild pneumonia recovered after antiviral treatment. The other 15 patients recovered well without major complications. There was no operation-related death in the whole group. One patient died after surgery, with a mortality rate of 5.6%. Conclusion Patients with COVID-19 are at high risk of cardiac and vascular surgery, and patients with high-risk factors may rapidly progress to severe pneumonia. Patients with preoperative lung imaging changes or other basic visceral diseases should consider delaying the operation. Early antiviral combined with immunomodulation treatment for emergency surgery patients may help improve the prognosis.
The diagnosis and management of congenital heart disease (CHD), the most common inborn defect, has been a tremendous success of modern medicine. With the development of diagnostic techniques, surgical procedures and interventional techniques, more than 90% of CHD children can survive to adulthood. Consequently, the prevalence of patients with CHD has shifted away from infancy and childhood towards adulthood. Adult CHD cardiology is now encompassing not only young or middle-aged adults but also patients aged above 60 years. Standardized guidelines can provide good theoretical support for the comprehensive management of adult CHD. Ten years after the European Society of Cardiology guidelines for the management of grown-up CHD released in 2010, the new version was officially released in August 2020. The new version of guidelines updated the classification and stratification of diseases, comprehensive intervention methods and intervention timing, and put forward some new concepts, new intervention standards and methods. For adult CHD that has not been repaired or needs to be repaired again, the indication and mode of surgical intervention and perioperative management have a great impact on the prognosis. The new version of the guidelines provides a detailed description of the surgical and intervention indications and methods for different diseases, and clarifies the management methods for high-risk groups. This article attempts to interpret this newly updated guideline from the perspective of a surgeon, sort out several key diseases introduced by the guideline, and strives to provide a concise and actionable guideline for domestic counterparts.
