Objective To analyze the causes for day surgery cancellations before admission or on the same day of operation, and put forward targeted measures to improve the medical resource utilization and patient satisfaction. Methods The basic information and clinical data of patients who had been scheduled for surgery in the Day Surgery Center of West China Hospital, Sichuan University between January 2018 and September 2021 were collected. The reasons for the surgery cancellations before admission or on the same day of operation were analyzed. Results From January 2018 to September 2021, a total of 45176 patients were successfully scheduled for day surgery, and 44300 patients completed surgery as planned. A total of 876 operations (1.94%) were cancelled after being scheduled, including 546 (1.21%) before admission and 330 (0.73%) on the surgery day. Ranked from high to low according to the cancellation rates, the top five departments were Department of Dermatology, Department of Vascular Surgery, Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, and Department of Gastroenterology, with a cancellation rate of 3.38% (8/237), 2.90% (25/863), 2.85% (101/3548), 2.48% (171/6893), and 1.91% (260/13578), respectively. In the reasons for cancellations, patient factors accounted for 57.31% (502/876) and medical management factors accounted for 42.69% (374/876). Conclusions The cancellations of day surgery mainly occur before admission, and are mainly caused by patient factors. It is necessary to strengthen the preoperative education for day surgery patients, and enhance the communication and cooperation between surgery physicians, nurses and technicians, in order to reduce the operation cancellation rate and make reasonable and efficient use of medical resources.
Microaneurysm is the initial symptom of diabetic retinopathy. Eliminating this lesion can effectively prevent diabetic retinopathy in the early stage. However, due to the complex retinal structure and the different brightness and contrast of fundus image because of different factors such as patients, environment and acquisition equipment, the existing detection algorithms are difficult to achieve the accurate detection and location of the lesion. Therefore, an improved detection algorithm of you only look once (YOLO) v4 with Squeeze-and-Excitation networks (SENet) embedded was proposed. Firstly, an improved and fast fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm was used to optimize the anchor parameters of the target samples to improve the matching degree between the anchors and the feature graphs; Then, the SENet attention module was embedded in the backbone network to enhance the key information of the image and suppress the background information of the image, so as to improve the confidence of microaneurysms; In addition, an spatial pyramid pooling was added to the network neck to enhance the acceptance domain of the output characteristics of the backbone network, so as to help separate important context information; Finally, the model was verified on the Kaggle diabetic retinopathy dataset and compared with other methods. The experimental results showed that compared with other YOLOv4 network models with various structures, the improved YOLOv4 network model could significantly improve the automatic detection results such as F-score which increased by 12.68%; Compared with other network models and methods, the automatic detection accuracy of the improved YOLOv4 network model with SENet embedded was obviously better, and accurate positioning could be realized. Therefore, the proposed YOLOv4 algorithm with SENet embedded has better performance, and can accurately and effectively detect and locate microaneurysms in fundus images.
Changes in the intrinsic characteristics of brain neural activities can reflect the normality of brain functions. Therefore, reliable and effective signal feature analysis methods play an important role in brain dysfunction and relative diseases early stage diagnosis. Recently, studies have shown that neural signals have nonlinear and multi-scale characteristics. Based on this, researchers have developed the multi-scale entropy (MSE) algorithm, which is considered more effective when analyzing multi-scale nonlinear signals, and is generally used in neuroinformatics. The principles and characteristics of MSE and several improved algorithms base on disadvantages of MSE were introduced in the article. Then, the applications of the MSE algorithm in disease diagnosis, brain function analysis and brain-computer interface were introduced. Finally, the challenges of these algorithms in neural signal analysis will face to and the possible further investigation interests were discussed.

Objective To improve the retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail based on humeral bone dissection and cl inical appl ication, and investigate the cl inical values of modified retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail for humeral shaft fracture. Methods Between March 2006 and March 2010, 146 patients with humeral shaft fractures were treated and fractures were fixed with the modified retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail (the modified group, n=73) and with the retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail (the original group, n=73). In the original group, there were 40 males and 33 females with an average age of 41 years; 41 cases were classified as transversefracture, 18 as obl ique fracture, 8 as spiral fracure, and 6 as comminuted fracture; the median disease duration was 11 days (range, 3 hours to 2 months); and close reduction fixation was performed in 27 cases and open reduction fixation in 46 cases. In the modified group, there were 39 males and 34 females with an average age of 40 years; 43 cases were classified as transverse fracture, 16 as obl ique fracture, 10 as spiral fracure, and 4 as comminuted fracture; the median disease duration was 13 days (range, 3 hours to 3 months); and close reduction fixation was performed in 31 cases and open reduction fixation in 42 cases. There was no significant difference in sex, age, fracture type, and disease duration between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). The fracture heal ing and functional recovery of affected l imbs were compared between 2 groups after operation. Results The operation time and intraoperative blood loss in the modified group were significantly less than those in the original group (P lt; 0.05). Iatrogenic fracture occurred in 3 cases of the original group, which were cleavage fracture of supracondylar. No iatrogenic fracture occurred in the modified group. All incisions of 2 groups healed by first intention without compl ications of postoperative infections, metal fracture, and loosening of internal fixation, etc. A total of 116 patients were followed up more than 12 months in 2 groups with 58 patients in each group. The fracture heal ing time was (15 ± 3) weeks (fresh fracture) and (30 ± 12) weeks (old fracture and nonunion) in the modified group, and was (16 ± 4) weeks (fresh fracture) and (35 ± 14) weeks (old fracture) in the original group, showing significant differences between 2 groups (P lt; 0.05). The results of Neer shoulder score were excellent in 65 cases and good in 8 cases, and the results of Aitken and Rorabeck elbow function score were excellent in 61 cases and good in 12 casesin the original group; the results of Neer shoulder score were excellent in 67 cases and good in 6 cases, and the results of Aitken and Rorabeck elbow function score were excellent in 63 cases and good in 10 cases; and the excellent and good rates were 100% in 2 groups. Conclusion The modified retrograde rotative-type interlocking intramedullary nail has the advantages of easy operation and less compl ication, which is an effective and rel iable internal fixator.
ObjectiveTo explore the practical effects of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) management model in the management of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).MethodsIn 2015, the multi-drug resistant MDT was established, and MDT meetings were held regularly to focus on the problems in the management of MDROs and related measures to prevent and control nosocomial infections of MDROs.ResultsThe detection rate of MDROs from 2014 to 2017 was 9.20% (304/3 303), 7.11% (334/4 699), 8.01% (406/5 072), and 7.81% (354/4 533), respectively. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=11.803, P=0.008), in which the detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRABA), carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) changed significantly (χ2=39.022, 17.052, 12.211; P<0.05). From 2014 to 2017, the proportion of multi-drug resistant infections decreased year by year, from 84.54% to 52.82%, and the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections also declined, from 46.05% to 23.16%; the nosocomial infection case-time rate decreased from 0.24% to 0.13% year-on-year; the proportion of multi-drug resistant hospital infections in total hospital infections was 9.07%, 11.17%, 10.47%, and 6.16%, respectively; in the distribution of multi-drug resistant nosocomial infection bacteria, the proportion of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, CRABA, CRE hospital infections accounted for the number of MDROs detected decreased year by year. The use rate of antibiotics decreased from 46.58% in 2014 to 42.93% in 2017, and the rate of pathogens increased from 64.83% in 2014 to 84.59% in 2017.ConclusionThe MDT management mode is effective for the management and control of MDROs, which can reduce the detection rate, infection rate, hospital infection rate, and antibacterial drug use rate, increase the pathogen detection rate, and make the prevention and control of MDROs more scientific and standardized.
