【Abstract】Objective To study the advances in clinical application of shape memory alloy (SMA) in general surgery. Methods The literature in the recent years on the advances of SMA was reviewed. Results At present clinical application of SMA have been developed. Different stents could dilate the benign and malignant stricture of blood vessels, biliary ducts, cola, recta and gastric outlet obstruction. The SMA catheter system was effective for peroral cholangiopancreatoscopy. Novel nitinol basket instrument might be useful for percutaneous cholecystolithotomy. Compression anastomoses was safe and sound in gastrointestinal surgery using a device made of SMA. Nitinol stent could be used in transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt (TIPSS) with satisfactory results. Nitinol occlusion devices was superior to stainless steel coils. The Simon nitinol filter represented a new generation of venous interruption devices designed to prevent recurrent pulmonary embolism. Conclusion Clinical application of SMA will be increased by the development of endoscope, laparoscope and interventional technique.
目的 探讨普通外科手术患者发生院内感染与手术室护理管理的相关性，为有效控制院内感染提供理论依据。 方法 收集普通外科2008年4月－2009年6月接受手术治疗的150例患者为对照组，2009年7月－2011年9月接受手术治疗的150例患者作为干预组，分析可能影响院内感染的手术室护理因素。 结果 出院后随访6个月，对照组感染率为20.67%，高于干预组的8.00%（P＜0.05）；普通外科手术医院感染与手术时间、术前抗生素应用、有无参观人员等手术室因素密切相关。 结论 在手术室护理工作中，要采取一系列手术室护理干预措施，以提高护理管理质量，降低普通外科手术的院内感染发生。
ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical experience of 180 general surgeries under da Vinci surgical system. MethodsFrom January 2009 to October 2010, 180 patients with hepatopancreaticobiliary and gastrointestinal disease underwent robotic surgeries by using da Vinci surgical system. The case distribution, intra-and post-operative data were analyzed. ResultsA total of 171 patients had underwent total robotic surgeries and nine patients converted to hand-assisted procedure (5.0%, 9/180). The surgery for hepatic portal was performed in 63 cases of patients, including surgery for hilar cholangiocarcinoma in 36 cases, gallbladder carcinoma in 10 cases, complex calculus of intrahepatic duct in 12 cases, and iatrogenic biliary duct injury in 5 cases. The pancreatic surgery was performed in 44 cases of patients, including pancreatoduodenectomy in 16 cases, distal pancreatectomy in 6 cases, medial pancreatectomy in 1 case, pancreatic cyst-jejunum anastomosis in 1 case, and palliative surgery in 20 cases. Hepatic surgery was in 19 cases and gastrointestinal surgery in 12 cases of patients. Other procedures were in 42 cases of patients, including common bile duct exploration and removing the stone, retroperitoneal lymph nodes dissection, and splenectomy, etc. All of ten cases of patients with obstructive suppurative cholangitis received emergency surgery by the robot and postoperative infection symptoms were controlled, and shock was corrected quickly. No death occurred during the perioperative period. Postoperative complications occurred in 12 cases (6.7%, 12/180) and 2 cases died (1.1%, 2/180). Conclusionsda Vinci surgical system can carry out all kinds of general surgery, especially complicated and difficult hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, which improves the development of minimally invasive surgery.
目的 探讨胃大部切除术中应用直线型切割缝合器的临床经验及优点。方法 总结直线型切割缝合器的使用方法，并比较分析传统胃大部切除术和采用直线型切割缝合器行胃大部切除术的手术时间和术后并发症。结果 使用直线型切割缝合器使手术时间缩短60～120 min (P=0.000)，术后出血并发症明显减少(P=0.024)。结论 应用直线型切割缝合器行胃大部切除术可以缩短手术时间和减少术后出血的发生。
Objective To investigate the risk factors for insulin resistance (IR) after selective operation in the department of general surgery. Methods Two hundred and sixty-three patients including 122 males and 141 females after selective operation between March 2009 and October 2009 in The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University were studied. Sex, age, histories of smoking and drinking, hypertensive disease, history of operation, height, weight, waist circumference, anesthesia method, operation duration, operation method, and volumes of transfusion and liquid injection during operation were recorded. The fasting blood glucose (BG) and fasting plasma insulin (INS) were tested for selectively operative patients on day 1 before and after surgery. Insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and the index of insulin secretion (HOMA-β) were calculated with homeostasis model assessment (HOMA). Logarithms of HOMA-IR (lnHOMA-IR) was taken because that HOMA-IR was not normal distribution. Results The levels of fasting BG, fasting plasma INS, and lnHOMA-IR on day 1 after operation were higher than those on day 1 before operation (Plt;0.001). IR was correlated with patients’ sex (P=0.002), the history of smoking (P=0.033), waist circumference (P=0.000), operation method (P=0.007), and the volume of liquid injection during operation (P=0.001). A significant elevation of the change of lnHOMA-IR level was found between abdominal and nonabdominal surgery (Plt;0.001). Conclusions IR occurs in selectively operative patients in the department of general surgery. It is helpful for depressing IR to control the intensity of surgery.
Objective To investigate the characteristics of the pathogens causing bloodstream infection after general surgery in infant and young children patients, and to provide the references for disease treatment and nosocomial infection control. Methods The clinical and laboratory examination data after general surgery in infant and young children patients, who were admitted to our hospital from January 2012 to March 2017, were retrospectively collected. The pathogens and drug resistance were analyzed by SPSS 18.0 software. Results In this study, 109 cases were included, and 117 strains of the pathogens were isolated, including 53 isolates (45.3%) of gram negative bacteria, 41 isolates (35.0%) of gram positive bacteria, and 23 isolates (19.7%) of fungi. Escherichia coli (16/117, 13.7%), Enterococcus faecium (13/117, 11.1%), Candida parapsilosis (12/117, 10.3%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (9/117, 7.7%) and Enterococcus faecalis (8/117, 6.8%) were the top 5 species. Strains producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamase accounted for 87.5% of E. coli (14/16) and 44.4% (4/9) of K. pneumoniae isolates. Both E. faecium and E. faecalis were susceptible to vancomycin. C. parapsilosis showed the susceptibility to the antifungal agents. Conclusion Gram negative bacteria are predominant pathogens causing bloodstream infection after general surgery in infant and young children patients, and infection caused by resistant isolates should be prevented and controlled.
ObjectiveTo summarize the application status and related progress of robot-assisted technology in general surgery.MethodThe related researches about robot-assisted technology in general surgery in recent year were searched and reviewed.ResultsRobot-assisted techniques had similar safety and effectiveness to endoscopic surgery in general surgery. In addition, in rectal cancer, thyroid and pancreatic surgery, due to the narrow operation space, the advantages of robot-assisted surgery was more obvious.ConclusionsThe application of robot-assisted techniques in general surgery is safe and effective. With the decrease of the cost of robotic surgery, which has wide application value in general surgery.
