  • Metronidazole for Treatign the Post Hemorrhoidectomy Pain: A Systematic Review

    Objectives To evaluate the effect of metrinidazole treatment after conventional hemorrhoidectomy pain in patients with third and fourth degree hemorrhoids. Methods We searched the Cochrane Library (Issue 1 2009), PubMed (1966 to March 2009), EMbase (1974 to March 2009), SCI (1974 to March 2009), CBM (1978 to March 2009), CNKI (1994 to March 2009), and VIP (1989 to March 2009) to identify randomized controlled trials or quasi- randomize controlled trials of metronidazole versus placebo for treating post hemorrhoidectomy pain. We evaluated the quality of the included studies by using the Handbook 4.2.6 recommend standards and analyzed data using the Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 4.2.10. Results We included seven randomized controlled trials or quais-randomized controlled trials (n=553). Meta-analyses showed that there were statistical differences between metronidazole and placebo in pain after hemorrhoidectomy and the use of an additional dose of analgesia. Conclusions The current evidence shows that metronidazole relieves the pain after conventional hemorrhoidectomy and reduces the additional used of analgesics. Further high quality, large sample randomized controlled trials should be carried out.

  • Use of Pain Scale and Arterial Oxygen Partial Pressure as Screening Internal Fixation Indications for Patients with Multiple Rib Fractures

    ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility to use pain scale and arterial oxygen partial pressure(PaO2)as screening internal fixation indications for patients with multiple rib fractures. MethodsClinical data of 48 patients with multiple rib fractures who were admitted to Shanghai Pudong Hospital from September 2010 to February 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Visual analogue scale (VAS) was used for pain assessment. Twenty-four patients whose VAS was greater than or equal to 6 and PaO2 was less than 60 mm Hg 3 days after injury were chosen as the experimental group, including 16 males and 8 females with their age of 49.29±15.73 years. Another 24 patients whose VAS was less than or equal to 5 and PaO2 was greater than 60 mm Hg 3 days after injury were chosen as the control group, including 19 males and 5 females with their age of 48.63±13.49 years. Patients in both groups received rib internal fixation with steel plates. Three days and 1 week after surgery respectively, VAS and PaO2 were compared between the 2 groups. ResultsIn the experimental group, VAS 3 days after surgery was significantly lower than preoperative VAS (4.09±0.93 vs. 8.21±1.18, P < 0.05), and VAS 1 week after surgery was significantly lower than preoperative VAS (3.20±0.98 vs. 8.21±1.18, P < 0.05). In the control group, there was no statistical difference between VAS 3 days after surgery and preoperative VAS (P > 0.05), and there was no statistical difference between VAS 1 week after surgery and preoperative VAS (P > 0.05). Three days after surgery, PaO2 of the experimental group was significantly higher than preoperative PaO2 (61.00±3.47 mm Hg vs. 53.00±3.97 mm Hg, P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference between PaO2 3 days after surgery and preoperative PaO2 in the control group (66.71±5.15 mm Hg vs. 66.00±5.00 mm Hg, P > 0.05). Three days after surgery, pneumonia occurred in 4 patients in the experimental group and 2 patients in the control group (χ2=0.762, P > 0.05). Three days after surgery, pain scale reduction of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (4.13±1.45 vs. 0.00±0.42, P < 0.05). One week after surgery, pain scale reduction of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (5.04±1.23 vs. 0.08±0.28, P < 0.05). Three days after surgery, PaO2 increase of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (7.42±3.59 mm Hg vs. 0.21±0.98 mmHg, P < 0.05). ConclusionIt's reasonable and feasible to use pain scale greater than or equal to 6 and PaO2 less than 60 mm Hg as internal fixation indications for patients with multiple rib fractures.

  • EFFECTS OF LYCIUM BARBARUM POLYSACCHARIDE ON FORMATION OF TRAUMATIC NEUROMA AND PAIN AFTER TRANSECTION OF SCIATIC NERVE IN RATS

    Objective To investigate the effects of lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) on the formation of traumatic neuroma and pain after transection of sciatic nerve in rats. Methods Forty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, weighing 200-220 g, half male and half female, were allocated into 2 groups randomly: LBP group and control group (n=20 per group). The right sciatic nerves were transected and 2 cm sciatic nerve were removed in all rats of the 2 groups. LBP were intraperitoneally injected in a volum of 10 mg/(kg·d) in the LBP group, while the same volum normal sal ine (NS) in the control group for 28 days. The deficiency of toenail and toe were observed to estimate the autophagy of the operated l imb. Light microscope and transmission electron microscope were used to observe the formation of traumatic neuroma aftertransection of sciatic nerve. Results Autophagy was observed in 5 rats (25%) of LBP group and in 12 rats (60%) of controlgroup at 4 weeks, showing significant difference (P lt; 0.05). Neuroma formed in 8 rats (40%) of LBP group and in 16 rats(80%) of control group, showing significant difference (P lt; 0.05). The observation of l ight microscope showed that there were unorganized growth cells in the neuroma, infiltrated muscle cells, the regeneration of axons and ensheathing cells to form small patch and funicular structure in the control group, while in the LBP group there were less prol iferation of nerve fibers with a regular arrangement. Transmission electron microscope showed that there were lots of axons in nerve tumour, more fusoid fibroblasts, more collagen fiber, and hyperplasia and degenerated myel in sheath in the control group, while in the LBP group there were less myel in sheath in the proximal end of injuring nerves, less Schwann cells and fibroblasts, and sparsed collagen fibers. Conclusion LBP can inhibit autophagy and the formation of traumatic neuroma after transection of sciatic nerve in rats.

  • Effects of Lidocaine on Preventing Pain on Injection of Propofol: A Meta-Analysis

    Objective To systematically review the effects of lidocaine for preventing pain on injection of propofol. Methods Databases including The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2012), PubMed, MEDLINE, Ovid, HighWire, EMbase, CBM and CNKI were searched electronically to collect literature published from January, 1985 to December, 2012. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were indentified about lidocaine for preventing injection pain of propofol. References of the included studies were also retrieved. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assess the quality of the included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results Fifteen trials involved 1 332 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis indicated that, adding lidocaine into propofol lowered the incidence of pain on injection compared with blank control, with a significant difference (RR=0.36, 95%CI 0.30 to 0.44, Plt;0.000 01); using different doses of lidocaine before injection lowered the incidence of pain on injection compared with blank control, with a significant difference (RR=0.59, 95%CI 0.47 to 0.75, Plt;0.000 1); using different doses of lidocaine after venous occlusion lowered the incidence of pain on injection compared with blank control, with a significant difference (RR=0.44, 95%CI 0.37 to 0.52, Plt;0.000 01). Conclusion Lidocaine could reduce the pain on injection of propofol. Using lidocaine 40 mg after venous occlusion is a relatively effective method to lower the incidence of pain on injection which is more suitable for outpatient who receive intravenous anesthesia without preoperation medication.

  • STUDY ON CORRELATION BETWEEN PAIN GRADING, STAGE OF NECROSIS AND BONE MARROW EDEMA IN NONTRAUMATIC OSTEONECROSIS OF FEMORAL HEAD

    【Abstract】 Objective To explore the correlation between pain grading, stage of necrosis and bone marrow edema(BME) in nontraumatic osteonecrosis of femoral head (NONFH) so as to strengthen understandings about cl inical significance of BME in NONFH. Methods From October 2004 to October 2006, 97 patients (149 hips) with NONFH were treated. There were 68 males and 29 femals with an average age of 38.8 years (19-62 years). The disease course was from 20 days to 4 years. BME was identified grade 0 to grade 2 according to MRI. Based on grading scale of pain, pain grading were divided into no pain (grade 0), mild pain (grade 1) and moderate or severe pain (grade 2). According to Association Research Circulation Osseous staging system, NONFH were divided into I-IV stages. The incidence rate of BME in each pain grading and stages of necrosis was analyzed respectively. Contingency table analyses and rank sum tests were used to compare the difference of pain grading and stages of necrosis among these groups. Results The total incidence rate of BME was 73.15% (109/149), the incidence rateswere 84.38% in pain groups (108 /128) and 94.12% in the grade 2 (32/34). Pain grading correlated with BME rating (P lt; 0.001).The results of rank sum tests for several independent samples showed significant difference in BME among pain groups(P lt; 0.001). With the advance of pain scale, the mean rank of BME increased gradually(28.19 for grade 0, 78.94 for grade 1 and 96.12 for grade 2). BME was more commonly and clearly seen in stage Ⅱ(77.05%)and stage Ⅲ(82.81%)of NONFH. Stage I-III of NONFH correlated with BME rating (P lt; 0.001). The results of rank sum tests showed significant difference in BME rating among three stages (P lt; 0.001). With the advance of disease, the rank of BME rating increased gradually (39.07 for grade 0, 60.16 for grade 1 and 86.15 for grade 2 ). Conclusion BME is a sign that is accompanied with NONFH. The probabil ity and extent of BME correlated well with the pain and stage of NONFH.The condition of BME can be used as a index for the appraisal of advancement of disease and the judgment of treatment result.

  • Application of pain management in enhancing patient recovery after percutaneous kyphoplasty surgery

    Objective To manage the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative pain of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) under the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) and explore the role of pain management under the ERAS concept in enhancing postoperative rehabilitation of PKP. Methods From January to December 2016, 136 patients with osteoporotic compression fractures treated with PKP of local anesthesia were selected, among which 71 patients in the ERAS group were treated between July and December 2016, who were treated with celecoxib capsule for analgesia before the operation and such local anesthetics as lidocaine and ropivacaine combined with intravenous injection of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride for multi-mode analgesia during the operation; after the operation, celecoxib capsules and tizanidine hydrochloride tablets were orally administered by the routine for analgesia; if the pain was increased, 40 mg parecoxib would be added for analgesia by intramuscular injection. While 65 patients in the conventional group were treated between January and June 2016, who were given intraoperative local anesthesia with lidocaine; if the patients suffered from severe pain after the operation, they would be given 40 mg parecoxib by intramuscular injection. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), mean arterial pressure (MAP), the complications after surgery, postoperative infections, bed rest time, length of hospital stay and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results There was no statistical difference in age, gender or fracture vertebral number between the two groups (P>0.05). The preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative VAS scores (4.0±1.5, 4.8±1.8, 1.6±1.1), MAP change [(22.0±4.7) mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)], bed rest time [(1.5±0.7) days], and length of hospital stay [(3.8±0.8) days] in the ERAS group were significantly less than those in the conventional group [4.7±1.7, 5.7±1.5, 2.4±1.1, (31.3±6.1) mm Hg, (2.1±0.8) days, and (5.0±1.6) days, respectively] (P<0.05). The incidence of intraoperative complication of bone cement leakage (4.2%, 3/71) in the ERAS group was lower than that in the conventional group (13.8%, 9/65) (P<0.05); there was no statistical difference in postoperative pulmonary infection between the two groups (P>0.05). Patients’ satisfaction was significantly improved from 86.2% (the conventional group) to 95.8% (the ERAS group) (P<0.05). There was no incision infection, urinary tract infection or venous thrombosis in the two groups. Conclusion With the concept of ERAS, taking a management of pain can effectively alleviate the dis-comfortable pain feeling, improve the patients’ satisfaction, and enhance the recovery for the patients after PKP surgery.

  • The Effect of Continuous Improvement of Quality Control Mechanism on the Emergency Treatment Efficiency for Acute ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Chest Pain Center

    ObjectiveTo explore the effect of continuous improvement of quality control system on the emergency treatment efficiency for patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after the establishment of Chest Pain Center. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the differences of theory examination scores acquired by the Chest Pain Center staff one month before and after they got the system training. Moreover, we designated the STEMI patients treated between May and August 2015 after the establishment of Chest Pain Center but before optimization of process to group A (n=70), and patients treated from September to December 2015 after optimization of process to group B (n=55). Then we analyzed the differences between these two groups in terms of the time from patients' arriving to registration, the time from arriving to first order, the length of stay in Emergency Department, and even the time from door to balloon (D2B). ResultsThe scores acquired by Chest Pain Center staff before and after system training were 69.89±6.34 and 87.09±4.39 respectively, with a significant difference (P<0.05). All the time indicators of both group A and group B were shown as median and quartile. The time from patients' arriving to registration of group A and group B was 6.0 (0.0, 11.0) minutes and 1.0 (0.0, 3.0) minutes (P<0.05); the time from arriving to first order was 12.8 (9.0, 18.0) minutes and 5.0 (3.0, 9.0) minutes (P<0.05); the length of stay in Emergency Department was 54.0 (44.0,77.0) minutes and 33.0 (20.0, 61.0) minutes (P<0.05); and the time of D2B was 107.5 (89.0, 130.0) minutes and 79.0 (63.0, 108.0) minutes (P<0.05). ConclusionAfter taking measures such as drawing lessons from the past, training staff and optimizing process continuously, we have significantly shortened the acute STEMI patients' length of stay in the Emergency Department, which has saved more time for the following rescue of STEMI patients.

  • Enhanced Lung Rehabilitation after Surgery: Peri-operative Processes Optimization Is Necessary

    The concept of "enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS)" has been well known by care providers. Implementation of the ERAS principles requires minimally invasive surgical technology in conjunction with multidisciplinary teamwork. Only if these two aspects of peri-operative care regime optimization and "all-in-one model in medical" care were linked up associatelly, ERAS could be realized. Thoracoscopic surgery was a milestone in thoracic surgery. The successful application of such a recovery program requires the foundation of pain and risk free ward in perioperative period and improving quality of life post discharge. This review summarizes the peri-operative regimen care optimization regarding the utility of ERAS in the VATS lobectomy of patients with lung cancer. The first one is preoperative evaluation issues. It involves conditioning the patient and implementing a pre-operative exercise and a physical therapy regimen. The second one is operative and individual anesthetic maneuvers and the selective use of tube in the post-operative period. The third one is the foundation of pain and risk free ward:what are methods optimum of post operative management? The fourth one is medical management of patient's outcomes and the ERAS regimen continuing optimum. The fifth one is the importance of function of multi-departmental coordination in ERAS.

  • Postoperative Pain in the Lobectomy Patients with Robotic Surgery versus Video-assisted Thoraciscopic Surgery: A Case Control Study

    ObjectiveTo determine postoperative pain of the robotic technique for the patients with lobectomy. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 120 patients with lobectomy between October 2014 and May 2015 in our hospital. The patients are divided into two groups:a robotic group, including 40 patients with 16 males and 24 females at age of 59.7±7.2 years, undergoing robotic lobectomy, and a video-assisted thoraciscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy group (a VATS group) including 80 patients with 29 males and 51 females at age of 61.2±8.9 years, undergoing VATS lobectomy. We used the numerical rating scale (NRS) and verbal rating scale (VRS) to assess the pain level on the first day, the 7th day and the 30th day after the surgery. The pain level of the two groups was compared. ResultsThe patients in the two groups both felt pain. There were no statistical differences in the scores of VRS and NRS on the first day, the 7th day and the 30th day after the surgery between the two group (P>0.05). The pain score of the patients in the two groups decreased with no statistical difference from the first day to the 30th day after the surgery (P>0.05). ConclusionThe patients with robotic lobectomy have similar pain level after surgery compared with the patients with VATS lobectomy.
