Objective To investigate the outcome and prognostic factors of hospital mortality in patients with acute cerebrovascular disease requiring mechanical ventilation.Methods Data from 94 patients with acute cerebrovascular disease in central intensive care unit(ICU) were collected and retrospectively analyzed.Prognostic factors of hospital mortality were analyzed by univariate statistics and multivariate logistic regression.Results Hospital mortality was 53.2%(50/94).There was significance diference in parameters such as APACHE II score，blood glucose，lengh of hospital stay，lengh of ICU stay，time of mechanical ventilation，incision of trachea，lung infections，lesion loci and its naturer between the survival and non-survival groups（all Plt;0.05）.Multivariate logistic regression revealed that blood glucose，lung infections，diseased region under tentorium of cerebellum，time of mechanical ventilation were independent prognostic risk factors of hospital mortality(all Plt;0.05).Whereas the lengh of ICU stay was protective factor(Plt;0.05).Conclusion The hospital mortality is considerably high in patients with acute cerebrovascular disease requiring mechanical ventilation. The prognostic factors such as blood glucose and lung infections should be evaluate cautiously and prevented aggressively.
Abstract Precision medicine is an ideal medical paradigm which combines modern scientific methods with traditional medical methods to diagnose, treat and evaluate the physical function and nature of diseases more precisely, and to maximize health benefits and minimize the risk of individuals and society with the most effective, safest, and the most economical medical service. Evidence-based medicine is necessary to verify the precision of diagnosis and treatment. In this review, we clarified the conception of precision medicine and the relation between precision medicine and evidence-based medicine. Moreover, we reviewed the application of precision medicine in the field of cerebrovascular disease. We pointed out that such new technologies as genetics, bioinformatics, molecular imaging and management provided tools to realize the idea of precision medicine, and high-quality evidence-based studies provided a guarantee for the clinical practice of precision medicine. In summary, precision medicine is an individualized medical mode that based on the context of a patient's genetic information, living environment and clinical data, etc. to provide precise treatment strategies for the prevention and treatment of disease, but still the promotion of precision medicine should be based on clinical validation under the guidance of evidence-based medicine. Thus, long-term exploration and unremitting efforts are required to achieve the idea of precision medicine.
