BACKGROUND:Early withdrawal of invasive mechanical ventilation(IMV) followed by noninvasive MV(NIMV) is a new strategy for changing modes of treatment in patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD) with acute respiratory failure(ARF).Using pulmonary infection control window(PIC window) as the switch point for transferring from invasive to noninvasive MV,the time for early extubation can be more accurately judged,and therapy efficacy can be *** study aimed to prospectively investigate the clinical effectiveness of fiberoptic bronchscopy(FOB) in patients with AECOPD during sequential weaning of invasive-noninvasive ***:Since July 2006 to January 2011,106 AECOPD patients with ARF were treated with comprehensive medication and IMV after *** were randomly divided into two groups according to whether fiberoptic bronchoscope is used(group A,n=54) or not(group B,n=52) during sequential weaning from invasive to noninvasive *** group A,for sputum suction and bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL),a fiberoptic bronchoscope was put into the airway from the outside of an endotracheal tube,which was accompanied with uninterrupted use of a *** achieving PIC window,patients of both groups changed to NIMV mode,and weaned from *** following listed indices were used to compare between the groups after treatment:1) the occurrence time of PIC,the duration of MV,the length of ICU stay,the success rate of weaning from MV for the first time,the rate of reventilatJon and the occurrence rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP);2) the convenience and safety of FOB *** results were compared using Student's f test and the Chi-square ***:The occurrence time of PIC was(5.01 ±1.49) d,(5.87±1.87) d in groups A and B,respectively(P<0.05);the duration of MV was(6.98±1.84) d,(8.69±2.41) d in groups A and B,respectively(P<0.01);the length of ICU stay was(9.25±1.84) d,(11.10±2.63) d in

Background: Peripheral block techniques for total hip arthroplasty have been used as an analgesic strategy, only a few studies described it as an anesthetic technique, so the perioperative performance and safety are poorly studied. Methods: 78 total hip arthroplasties were prospectively observed in our hospital. Divided into 2 groups: 1) General anesthesia;and 2) Lumbar sacral plexus block anesthesia. Variables measured in both groups were: demographics, conversion to general anesthesia, total opioid doses, surgical time, blood loss, postoperative pain, use and total dose of vasopressors drugs, transfusion and ICU transfer needs, postoperative ambulation time, and length of hospital stay. T student and chi-square tests were used upon the case. A significant difference was considered when a value of p Results: 3 patients (7.3%) anesthetized with combined lumbar sacral plexus block were converted to general anesthesia. When comparing peripheral nerve block and general anesthesia, less intraoperative (p = 0.000) and postoperative (p = 0.002) opioid consumption were noted, less postoperative pain in PACU (p = 0.002) and in the first 24 hours (p = 0.005), as well as earlier onset of ambulation (p = 0.008) and shorter hospital stay (p = 0.031). Conclusions: In our study, the lumbar and sacral plexus block anesthesia technique provided anesthetic conditions to perform hip joint arthroplasty and it was proved to be advantageous in comparison to general anesthesia.

[Objectives]This study was conducted to explore the effects of embryos at different developmental stages on the bisection effect of embryos,improve the efficiency of bovine embryo bisection,and facilitate the application of embryo bisection technology in cattle breeding.[Methods]The effects of two different bisection solutions on the bisection of morulae and blastocysts in vitro were *** morulae and blastocysts produced in vitro from cattle that developed to the 6th to 8th d were bisected by hands,and demi-embryos were cultured in *** development was observed.[Results]Morulae were bisected in PBS solution and PBS+0.2 mol/L sucrose,and the success rates of bisection were 50%and 95.2%,*** success rate of bisecting morulae in PBS+0.2 mol/L sucrose was significantly higher than that in PBS(Prate of the bisected demi-embryos had no significant difference between the two(53.3%,52.4%)(P>0.05).The success rates of blastocyst bisection in PBS solution and PBS+0.2 mol/L sucrose were 51.6%and 95.1%,*** success rate of blastocyst bisection in PBS+0.2 mol/L sucrose was significantly higher than that in PBS(Prate of the bisected demi-embryos had no significant difference between the two(50.0%,56.4%)(P>0.05).[Conclusions]There were no significant differences between the success rates of bisecting bovine morulae and blastocysts in PBS+0.2 mol/L sucrose,which were both significantly better than those in pure PBS bisection solution,proving that PBS+0.2 mol/L sucrose bisection solution is suitable for bovine embryo bisection.
