In order to meet the rapid development of in-vitro diagnostic reagent (IVD) market and the development needs of laboratory medicine, and ensure efficient management and cost control in IVD purchasing, it is necessary to build the purchasing management standard, improve the purchasing quality of IVD, reduce the overall hospital costs, and ensure the accuracy and reliability of clinical test results. Through three aspects: the preparation before business negotiation, business negotiation, and execution after business negotiation, this article clarifies the self-bidding procurement process of IVD, and emphasizes the importance of knowledge in IVD procurement management, so as to provide references and suggestions for novice buyers to get familiar with the business quickly and improve their negotiation ability.
As the reform of medical insurance payment methods is implemented, it is necessary for the medical institutions to further improve cost control and standardize the rational use of medical supplies. Over the years, West China Hospital of Sichuan University has made the assessment of the access of supplies by using the existing external evidence and the internal evidence created through real world data analysis methods. In this thesis, the difficulties faced by the access of medical supplies are deeply analyzed. The supplies access management system of West China Hospital of Sichuan University and its achievements in average waiting time of new supplies, rationality of purchase application, scientificity of demonstration results, support for the implementation of fourth-level surgery, and cost control are taken as examples. From this, a set of new paths can be provided for other hospitals to learn from at the time of carrying out medical supplies access management.
Objective To observe the efficacy of endotoxin absorption for treatment of the 2008 Wenchuan ea~hquake victims with severe sepsis．Methods Two patients with severe sepsis was given endotoxin absorption with PMX treatment．Results Both patients recovered from near-fatal conditions．Conclusion PMX is a new effective approach for the treatment of patients with severe sepsis
Theory of risk control was introduced to medical instruments quality control management in West China Hospital. A quality control system for the whole life cycle management of instruments has been established, which includes evaluation before instrument purchase, policy and management of bidding, operation training, safe maintenance, maintenance management and waste disposal. Medical instrument quality system was introduced to provide information for medical instrument risk control and quality management in a large, general Chinese hospital.
Objective A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted to study the effectiveness and safety of intravenous different doses tranexamic acid (TXA) in single-level unilateral minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF). Methods The patients treated with single-level unilateral MIS-TLIF between September 2019 and October 2020 were enrolled and randomly classified into low-dose TXA (LD) group (n=39), high-dose TXA (HD) group (n=39), and placebo-controlled (PC) group (n=38). The LD, HD, and PC groups received intravenous TXA 20 mg/kg, TXA 50 mg/kg, the same volume of normal saline at 30 minute before skin incision after general anesthesia, respectively. There was no significant difference on baseline characteristics and preoperative laboratory results among 3 groups (P>0.05), including age, gender, body mass index, surgical segments, hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (HGB), prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio (INR), D-dimer, fibrin degradation products (FDP), activated partial prothromboplastin time (APTT), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatinine (Cr), urea. The intraoperative blood loss (IBL), postoperative drainage volume, operation time, total blood loss (TBL), hidden blood loss (HBL), blood transfusion, hematological examination indexes on the first day after operation, and the incidence of complications within 1 month were compared among the 3 groups. Results There were 3, 2, and 4 patients in the LD, HD, and PC groups who underwent autologous blood transfusion, respectively, and there was no allogeneic blood transfusion patients in the 3 groups. There was no significant difference in IBL, postoperative drainage volume, and operation time between groups (P>0.05). The TBL, HBL, and the decreased value of HGB in LD and HD groups were significantly lower than those in PC group (P<0.05), and TBL and HBL in HD group were significantly lower than those in LD group (P<0.05); the decreased value of HGB between LD group and HD group showed no significant difference (P>0.05). On the first day after operation, D-dimer in LD and HD groups were significantly lower than that in PC group (P<0.05); there was no significant difference between LD and HD groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in other hematological indexes between groups (P>0.05). All patients were followed up 1 month, and there was no TXA-related complication such as deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity, pulmonary embolism, and epilepsy in the 3 groups. ConclusionIntravenous administration of TXA in single-level unilateral MIS-TLIF is effective and safe in reducing postoperative TBL and HBL within 1 day in a dose-dependent manner. Also, TXA can reduce postoperative fibrinolysis markers and do not increase the risk of thrombotic events, including deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.
After the occurrence of public health emergencies, as the most direct front position, how to carry out medical treatment orderly, effectively, rapidly and safely in a short time has become the focus and difficulty of epidemic control. After the outbreak of 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia (2019-nCoV), West China Hospital of Sichuan University, as a large-scale general hospital under the supervision of the CPC central committee, put people's life safety and health first, and attach great importance to the prevention and control of the epidemic. This paper introduces the ten measures taken by West China Hospital of Sichuan University to fight against the 2019-nCoV pneumonia, in order to provide reference for other hospitals.
