Among it, 6 cases had the injury of tooth, tongue, gullet and larynx.The cases of reflexvomiting were 2,pulmonary ventilation by single lung were 1, intubation in esophagus were 2, cardiopulmonary arrest were 1.Conclusions:Endotracheal intubation under fiberoptic bronchoscope through mouth was accurate, the fewer complications and effective for patients, and could be used widely in clinical applications.
Objective To investigate the safety and effectiveness of a self-made bronchoscopic catheter ( an improved artificial airway) in bronchoscopic interventional therapy.Methods 126 patients planning to receive bronchoscope between October 2012 and February 2013 were divided into A, B and C groups. Three groups received inhalation of 2% lidocaine 5mL for surface anesthesia, and the venous channel was build up. Then the patients in group A ( n = 45) were treated with conventional bronchoscope. The patients in group B ( n =40) were treated with painless bronchoscope ( received intravenous injection with midazolam0. 06 mg/kg and fentanyl 1μg/kg before operation) . The patients in group C ( n = 41) were treated with painless bronchoscope through improved artificial airway ( after anesthesia similar to group B, the improved artificial airway was implanted through the mouth guided by bronchoscope, then the bronchoscopy was performed through artificial airway) . Blood pressure, respiration rate, heart rate and the pulse oxygen saturation were measured by multi-parameter ECG monitor before and during the operation, and the differences were compared among three groups. Body movement, transient respiratory depression during the operation, and postoperative feelings and reactions after operation were also observed. Meanwhile, the convenience of operation by physicians was evaluated. Results The blood pressure fluctuations in group C and group A had no significant difference ( P gt;0. 05) . Heart rate of three groups was somewhat increased,but there was no significant difference between group C and group A ( P gt; 0. 05) . Body movement and postoperative pain memory in group B and group C were better than those in group A ( P lt; 0. 05) .Respiratory depression of three groups had no significant difference ( P gt; 0. 05) . The operative convenience and the comfort of physicians in group C were better than those in group A and group B ( P lt; 0. 05) .Conclusions Operation safety of bronchoscopic interventional treatment with improved artificial airway is similar to the conventional procedure, but the reaction of the intra-operation and postoperative painful memories are significantly superior to conventional bronchoscopy. The convenience of operation and comfort of physicians are much better than the conventional bronchoscopy. It can be concluded that the improved artificial airways is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods Sixty-eight patients with ARDS induced by COVID-19 in Wuhan Concorde Red Cross Hospital form January 25, 2020 to March 10, 2020 were included in the study. They were divided into an HFNC group (n=36) and an NIV group (n=36) according to the treatment. All patients received basic routine treatment, antiviral treatment and prevention therapy of secondary infection. The HFNC group received high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy, and the NIV group received NIV therapy. Then respiration and circulation parameters, comfort and tolerance, complications were compared between the two groups. Results After treatment for 3 days, 1 week, and 2 weeks in all patients with COVID-19 induced ARDS, respiratory rate (RR) was lower than that before therapy, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2), PaO2/FiO2 were higher than those before therapy (P<0.05), and therapeutic effect was time-dependent. But there was no significant difference of RR, PaO2, SpO2, PaO2/FiO2 between the HFNC group and the NIV group at different time points (P>0.05). After treatment for 2 weeks, the HFNC group patients' comfort, difficulty breathing, tolerance score were lower than the NIV group (P<0.05, P<0.01), the incidence rate of gastric distension and dry mouth etc. was lower than that in the NIV group (11.11% vs. 37.50%, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in rate of invasive mechanical ventilation or mortality between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions HFNC and NIV can improve respiratory and circulatory parameters of patients with COVID-19 induced ARDS. HFNC has better comfort and tolerance, and can reduce related complications.
Objective Since the first case of avian influenza A (H7N9) virus infection in humans identified in Suining, Sichuan province on January 25th, 2017, there were other five severely ill patients confirmed in the following 3 weeks. It is urgent to find out the common clinical characters of these patients, so that to make sure the optimal ways for early diagnosis and treatment for H7N9 virus infection in community hospitals or primary hospitals as soon as possible. Methods The early symptoms, the data of early laboratory findings, the early imaging study, the early process of diagnosis and treatment of these six patients were collected and analyzed. Results All six patients had high fever, dry cough, hypocalcemia, and hypophosphatemia, with advanced CT image lesions manifested as consolidation and ground-grass opacity in bilateral lower lung lobes. Some patients had typically leukopenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia. And most of them had a history of direct exposure to live poultry before complaining of flu-like syndromes. However, the flu can not be effectively controlled by routine anti-infection. Conclusion The human infection with H7N9 virus can be early identified by combining the epidemiology of live poultry exposure, the symptoms of high fever, dry cough, dramatical leukopenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, the typical CT image, and the rapidly worsen clinical condition.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of low-to-moderate doses of corticosteroids on human infections with avian influenza A (H7N9) virus, and explore when to initiate the treatment of corticosteroids and the duration of corticosteroids administration.MethodsThe study collected clinical data of 8 cases with avian influenza A (H7N9) virus infection admitted from January 25, 2017 to May 12, 2017. The final analysis included 5 severe patients who had received adjuvant corticosteroid treatment. The variation curves of WBC, CRP, PCT, CK, HBDH, LDH, temperature, ratio of SpO2/FiO2 were depicted and analyzed. The progress of clinical improvements, deterioration and prognosis were observed and discussed.ResultsThere were 1 female and 4 males in the 5 included patients with a median age of 58.0 years, among them 3 survived. The median time of illness onset to hospitalization and diagnosis confirmed were 4 days and 8 days respectively; the median duration of hospitalization to admission to infective ICU were 3 days. The first course of adjuvant corticosteroid treatment was initiated 11 days (median) after admission with a duration of 4 days (median), during which, the serum levels of HBDH and LDH decreased remarkably except the patient 3, and the oxygenation (SpO2/FiO2) improved except the patient 3. The second course of systemic administration of corticosteroid was given at a median of 26.5 days after admission with a duration of 9 days (median), during which, the patients survived with improved oxygenation (SpO2/FiO2), and weaned from mechanical ventilation.ConclusionsFor patients suffered severe human infection with avian influenza A (H7N9) virus, low-to-moderate doses of corticosteroids may decrease the level of inflammation, regulate the aberrant immune response, improve the oxygenation, make an early unassisted breathing. And corticosteroids treatment can be initiated at the time of disease deterioration, after/at the peak inflammatory response, and within 10-14 days of ARDS. Also, the adjuvant corticosteroids may be administered when oxygenation is dificult to be improved by other ways, or dificult to be liberated from mechanical ventilation, suffering severe septic shock, and refractory fever. And the duration of corticosteroids may be prolonged to 10-14 days, or until the higher level of HBDH and LDH decreased again.
ObjectiveThrough measuring fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and eosinophil levels of peripheral blood in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with different phenotype of acute exacerbation frequency, to predict the therapeutic effect of glucocorticoid therapy and guide the clinical treatment of different subtypes patients with acute exacerbations of COPD.MethodsA total of 127 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD in Suining Central Hospital from February 2017 to October 2019 were recruited. They were divided four groups according to the number of acute exacerbations in the past one year and the treatment scheme, ie. a frequent acute exacerbation with glucocorticoid treatment group (34 cases), a frequent acute exacerbation with non-glucocorticoid treatment group (31 cases), a non-frequent acute exacerbation with glucocorticoid treatment group (30 cases), and a non-frequent acute exacerbation with non-glucocorticoid treatment group (32 cases). FeNO value, eosinophil ratio in peripheral blood, COPD assessment test (CAT) score, and interleukin-8 (IL-8) concentration were measured before and on the 10th day of treatment, and the differences within group and between groups before and after treatment were compared.ResultsCAT score, FeNO, eosinophil ratio and IL-8 level in the four groups were significantly improved on the 10th day after treatment (all P<0.05). The declines of FeNO value, eosinophil ratio, and IL-8 level on the 10th day of treatment compared with those before treatment in the frequent acute exacerbation with glucocorticoid treatment group and the frequent acute exacerbations with non-glucocorticoid treatment group were larger than those in the non-frequent acute exacerbation with glucocorticoid treatment group and the non-frequent acute exacerbation with non-glucocorticoid treatment group (all P<0.05). The declines of FeNO value, blood eosinophil ratio and IL-8 level in the frequent acute exacerbation with glucocorticoid treatment group were also statistically significantly larger than those in the frequent acute exacerbations with non-glucocorticoid treatment group (all P<0.05). The improvement of CAT score in the frequent acute exacerbation with glucocorticoid treatment group was greater than that in other three groups (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in CAT score between the non-frequent acute exacerbation with glucocorticoid treatment group and the non-frequent acute exacerbation with non-glucocorticoid treatment group (P>0.05).ConclusionsThe degree of airway inflammation is more obvious in patients with frequent acute exacerbation phenotype of COPD. FeNO value can reflect the level of airway inflammation in patients with frequent acute exacerbation of COPD and evaluate the response to glucocorticoid therapy.
