Objective To evaluate the effects of emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (ECABG) in the treatment of emergent patients, and to summarize our experience. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 160 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Command from January 2010 through December 2013. The patients were divided into an ECABG group (operation underwent on the day diagnosed, n=27, 22 males and 5 females, at age of 70.2±10.2 years) and a conventional group (CABG operation underwent on 5 days after diagnosed, n=133, 104 males and 29 females, at age of 66.3±8.9 years). Results Statistical differences were found between the ECABG group and the conventional group in EuroSCORE (5.8±3.2 versus 3.4±2.1, P=0.001), acute myocardial infarction (33.3% vs. 11.3%, P=0.007), rate of application of IABP (29.6% versus 12.0%, P=0.034), pericardium and mediastinal tube drainage (533.4±132.8 ml versus 414.8±124.3 ml, P=0.018). There was no statistical difference in continuous renal replacement therapy (P=0.677), postoperative sternal wound complication (P=1.000), the length of hospital stay (P=0.589), or 30-day-mortality (P=0.198) between the two groups. We followed up 24 patients(88.89%) for 3-36 months in the ECABG group. One patient occurred angina symptoms at the end of 1 year follow-up. The symptoms disappeared after treatment. The other patients had no symptoms of angina pectoris and myocardial ischemia. Conclusion ECABG as a lifesaving therapy is an effective procedure in the treatment of severe and acute patients. Sufficient preoperative assessment, good myocardial protection, full revascularization, and comprehensive treatment plays an important role in the success of ECABG.

Objective To investigate the status quo of knowledge and attitude towards pain among medical staff in West China Hospital of Sichuan University. Methods The medical staff in Emergency Department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were investigated by the Chinese version of Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain (2008) questionnaire, the contents of which related to pain assessment, pain related knowledge, analgesic related knowledge, and comprehensive application, etc. And the questionnaire scores were compared among medical workers with different background. Results A total of 156 questionnaires were sent out and 130 valid ones were taken back, with an effective recovery rate of 83.3%. There was no statistically significant difference in questionnaire scores among the medical workers with different education background or different professional titles (P>0.05). The questionnaire scores were significantly different among nurses with different seniority (F=3.785, P=0.035), and the mean score of the nurses with more than 10 years of seniority was the highest (22.78±7.11). The questionnaire scores were significantly different among nurses working in different areas (F=3.043, P=0.033), and the mean score of the nurses working in rescue room was the highest (24.53±7.84).The erroneous items were concentrated on item 5, 17, 19. In the answers to the open questions, 97.7% (127/130) thought that the existing pain knowledge could not satisfy the needs of clinical work; 100.0% (130/130) believed that it was necessary to study pain related knowledge; 80.0% (104/130) acquired pain related knowledge from clinical experience, 40.0% (52/130) from books, 15.4% (20/130) from the network; 90% ( 117/130) commonly used numeric rating scale to evaluate the patients’ pain degree, 20.0% (26/130) evaluated the patients’ pain degree through facial expressions. Conclusions The overall level of pain management knowledge and attitude in medical staff in Emergency Department is low. The continuing education on pain knowledge should be strengthened, the attitude towards pain treatment and the importance of pain management should be paid more attention, and the standardized training and supervision should be enhanced.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the role of triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture in reducing wound infections of emergency gastrointestinal surgeries. MethodsThis was a prospective, randomized, controlled, single center study. From May 2009 to August 2010, 412 patients underwent emergency gastrointestinal operations in our department, 198 of them were chose randomly as experimental group using triclosancoated polyglactin 910 suture for abdominal wall closure， 214 using traditional braiding suture were taken as control. The risk factors for wound healing were analyzed, and wound infection rate was compared between two groups. ResultsThere were no significant differences of gender, age, body mass index, combined diabetes, use of immunosuppressant, and glucocorticoid steroid, type of incision, intraoperative bleeding volume, and operation time between two groups (Pgt;0.05). Wound infection rate of experimental group 〔3.0% (6/198）〕 was significantly lower than that of control group 〔11.7% (25/214), Plt;0.001〕. Especially in subgroup of type Ⅲ incision and operative time more than 120 min, wound infection rate was significantly different between experimental group and control group 〔3.5%(5/141) versus 14.3%(22/154); 3.3%(2/60) versus 21.2%(11/52) respectively, Plt;0.001〕. ConclusionTriclosancoated polyglactin 910 suture can reduce wound infection rate of gastrointestinal emergency operations, especially with type Ⅲ incision and operation time ≥120 min.
Emergency treatment of ocular trauma is a systematic and complicated work. Rapid and correct diagnosis and treatment are needed to maximize the recovery of ocular structure and function. In recent years, China has made remarkable progress in the emergency treatment of ocular trauma, including the development of Expert consensus on the norms of emergency treatment of ocular trauma in China (2019), the establishment of a national ocular trauma database, and the development of VisionGo Artificial Intelligence prediction system for ocular trauma. These measures improve the treatment level of ocular trauma and provide support for the prediction of postoperative visual acuity in severe traumatic eyes. However, with the development of economy and society, the characteristics of ocular trauma in our country have changed. For example, the majority of hospitalized patients were open ocular injuries, farmers and workers were the main occupational groups, and the proportion of eye injuries caused by traffic injuries increased year by year, and the proportion of women and minors increased. Although the annual loss of life of ocular trauma disability in China has decreased faster than the world average, the emergency treatment of ocular trauma still faces many challenges, such as regional differences, insufficient primary medical resources, lack of standardized training, and insufficient promotion of emergency treatment standards. In order to cope with these challenges, it is necessary to further strengthen the popularization of science and technology for the prevention and treatment of ocular trauma, standardize the emergency treatment process, strengthen the training of grass-roots medical personnel, strengthen the safety of emergency surgery, and pay special attention to the particularity of children's ocular trauma. In addition, relevant research has been actively carried out to establish a complete database of emergency patients with ocular trauma to promote the accurate prevention and treatment of ocular trauma.
Objective To analyze the case data of children with maxillofacial skin lacerations and provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of maxillofacial skin lacerations in children. Methods The medical records of children with maxillofacial skin lacerations who underwent emergency cosmetic suturing at the Lingang Branch of Yibin Second People’s Hospital between March 2023 and March 2024 were retrospectively collected. The clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of the children were analyzed and summarized. Results A total of 210 children with maxillofacial skin lacerations were included, of which 142 were boys, accounting for 67.62%. The age of the children was most common at 3 years old, accounting for 18.57% (39 cases). A total of 5 children had two lacerations, 3 cases of which were in the same location and 2 cases were not in the same location. The most common site of skin laceration in children was the forehead, accounting for 46.23% (98 cases). The most common cause of maxillofacial skin lacerations was spontaneous falls, accounting for 51.43% (108 cases). The maxillofacial skin lacerations of the children were mainly minor injuries (168 cases, accounting for 80.00%). All children underwent modified vertical mattress suture, and the postoperative satisfaction of the children families was relatively high. Finally, 37 children were successfully followed up, and the follow-up results showed that the wound healing of the maxillofacial skin lacerations were good, the skin scars were not obvious, and the appearance of the skins were basically normal. Conclusion For children with maxillofacial skin lacerations, using the modified vertical mattress suture for emergency cosmetic suturing is beneficial for their injury recovery and facial aesthetics.
Objective To find a better method of emergency repair of skin and soft tissue defects in the lower leg, ankle and foot. Methods The distally based superficial sural artery flap was designed on the posterior aspect of the leg. From February 2000 to December 2003, 18 patients with skin and soft tissue detects of the lower leg, ankle and foot were treated with island fasciocutaneous flap supplied by superficial sural artery by emergency. The size of the flap ranged form 4 cm× 5 cm to 11 cm×12 cm. Results The flaps survived totally in 16 cases and necrosed partially in 2 cases. After 1-2 year postoperative follow-up, the results were satisfactory except that in 2 flaps. Conclusion The island fasciocutaneous flap supplied by superficial sural artery may provide a useful method for emergency repair of soft tissue defect of the lower limbs.
As a global accidental injury, drowning has a huge spiritual and economic impact on patients, families and society. In order to improve the quality of pre-hospital and in-hospital emergency treatment of drowning, improve the prognosis, improve survival rate, and reduce the burden of drowning, in 2016, the Wilderness Medical Society drafted practice guidelines related to drowning. The first update of this guide was released in June 2019. The updated guide covers the terms of drowning, rescue and resuscitation, emergency treatment, preventive measures and other aspects. This article interprets the updated guidelines in order to provide recommendations for the first aid of drowning.
Objective We evaluated effectiveness and performance of medical rescue after Lushan earthquake during 2 weeks, and enriched Wenchuan lessons to provide useful references for emergency medical rescue (EMR) after similar earthquake worldwide. Methods We collected and analyzed official information, public documents, news release, and relevant information from websites, and then we systematically reviewed and descriptively analyzed all included literature of EMR after earthquake (domestic and foreign). Results Learned from Wenchuan earthquake, EMR for Lushan earthquake were characterized as: a) Assess the situations of quake damage and injuries were scientifically assessed; human resources, funds and materials were reasonably distributed; and the EMR relied mainly on regional rescue power of Sichuan province. b) Patients’ with critical injuries were treated using “Four concentration treatment principles”, which resulted in a new medical record of zero death, 14 days after the earthquake. c) The experience of EMR after Lushan earthquake verified, enriched and improved lessons from Wenchuan, Yushu and Yiliang earthquake, which provided first-hand references of evidence-based decision making for earthquake EMR worldwide.
