【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the indications, maternal and fetal/neonatal risks and treatments of pregnancy after liver transplantation. Methods The related published literatures were summarized and reviewed.ResultsMost females can recover a regular menstrual cycle. Hypertension, preeclampsia, bacterial and viral infection resulted from immuno-suppression therapy and increasing rate of caesarian section are the major risks for the mother. Abortion and preterm delivery, premature rupture of fetal membrane, hypoadrenalism, abnormality, immune deficiency, hepatitis virus B and cytomegalovirus and bacterial infection are the major risks for the fetus/neonate.ConclusionSatisfactory results can be obtained in most pregnancies after liver transplantation. Evaluation before gestation and surveillance during gestation by the related departments are mandatory. A guideline based on large cases is necessary for pregnancy after liver transplantation.
ObjectiveTo explore the application value of “Project Work Mode of West China” in the online prevention and control of new coronavirus (2019-nCoV).MethodBased on the rich experience of earthquake relief and project management in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, the “Project Work Mode of West China” was continuously optimized by PDCA cycle.ResultsThe “Project Work Mode of West China” could be applied to the 2019-ncov public health emergency, and the closed loop of rapid response had been established. The whole project team ran well and the system operation and maintenance were stable.ConclusionsThe “Project Work Mode of West China” provides a working path for the online epidemic prevention and control. The use of internet remote cooperative office effectively promotes the scientific emergency management of the epidemic and plays an active role in the online epidemic prevention and control.
The prevention and control of coronavirus disease 2019 is severe. In order to reduce the exposure of high-risk population and help home protection for at-risk population, West China Hospital of Sichuan University actively explored the construction and practice of online monitoring and home control systems, established a follow-up work team for at-risk population, formulated standardized work models and procedures, set up an online standardized follow-up information registration form to collect follow-up data, and controlled the process quality through repeated supervision. During the epidemic period of coronavirus disease 2019, West China Hospital of Sichuan University online follow-up mode can play a positive supporting role in the epidemic prevention and control and promoting this model has certain reference value for various medical institutions.
Objective To investigate the short-term effectiveness of transverse antecubital incision in the treatment of failed closed reduction of Gartland type Ⅲ supracondylar humeral fractures (SHFs) in children. Methods Between July 2020 and April 2022, 20 children with Gartland type Ⅲ SHFs who failed in closed reduction were treated with internal and external condylar crossing Kirschner wire fixation through transverse antecubital incision. There were 9 boys and 11 girls with an average age of 3.1 years (range, 1.1-6.0 years). The causes of injuries were fall in 12 cases and fall from height in 8 cases. The time from admission to operation ranged from 7 to 18 hours, with an average of 12.4 hours. The healing of the incision and the occurrence of complications such as nerve injury and cubitus varus were observed after operation; the elbow flexion and extension range of motion after removing the gypsum, after removing the Kirschner wire, and at last follow-up were recorded and compared, as well as the elbow flexion and extension and forearm rotation range of motion at last follow-up between healthy and affected sides; the Baumann angle was measured on the X-ray film, and the fracture healing was observed. At last follow-up, the effectiveness was evaluated according to the Flynn elbow function evaluation criteria. ResultsAll incisions healed by first intention, and there was no skin necrosis, scar contracture, ulnar nerve injury, and cubitus varus. Postoperative pain occurred in the radial-dorsal thumb in 2 cases. The gypsum was removed and elbow flexion and extension exercises were started at 2-4 weeks (mean, 2.7 weeks) after operation, and the Kirschner wire was removed at 4-5 weeks (mean, 4.3 weeks). All the 20 patients were followed up 6-16 months, with an average of 12.4 months. The fracture healing time was 4-5 weeks, with an average of 4.5 weeks, and there was no complication such as delayed healing and myositis ossificans. The flexion and extension range of motion of the elbow joint gradually improved after operation, and there were significant differences between the time after removing the gypsum, after removing the Kirschner wire, and at last follow-up (P<0.017). There was no significant difference in the flexion and extension of the elbow joint and the forearm rotation range of motion between the healthy and affected sides at last follow-up (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in Baumann angle between the time of immediate after operation, after removing the Kirschner wire, and at last follow-up (P>0.05). According to Flynn elbow function evaluation standard, 16 cases were excellent and 4 cases were good, the excellent and good rate was 100%. Conclusion The treatment of Gartland type Ⅲ SHFs in children with failed closed reduction by internal and external condylar crossing Kirschner wire fixation through transverse antecubital incision has the advantages of complete soft tissue hinge behind the fracture for easy reduction and wire fixation, small incision, less complications, fast fracture healing, early functional recovery, reliable reduction and fixation, and can obtain satisfactory results.
