  • Application of retrievable vena cava filter in patients with lower limb fractures complicated with deep venous thrombosis

    ObjectiveTo explore the value of recombinant inferior vena cava filter (IVCF) in the prevention of perioperative pulmonary embolism in patients with lower limb or pelvic fracture combined with deep venous thrombosis (DVT).MethodsThe clinical data of 168 patients with lower limb or pelvic fracture combined with DVT were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsThe filters were successfully implanted in 168 patients, and the recoverable filters were removed after (48.3±4.8) d (14–97 d). The filters were removed successfully in 159 cases, and the removal rate was 94.6%. Sixty-one cases were found to have thrombus on the filter after contrast examination or removal of vena cava filter, that is, the thrombus interception rate was 36.3%.ConclusionFor patients with lower limb or pelvic fracture combined with DVT, the rechargeable vena cava filter can effectively stop thrombosis and avoid pulmonary embolism.

  • Injury characteristics and therapeutic strategy of patients injured in “8·8” Jiuzhaigou earthquake

    ObjectiveTo summarize the injury characteristics and therapeutic strategy of patients injured in " 8·8” Jiuzhaigou earthquake.MethodsThe clinical data of 48 patients injured in " 8·8” Jiuzhaigou earthquake who were admitted to Mianyang Central Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. There were 25 males and 23 females with an average age of 36 years (range, 5-87 years). The average interval from injury to admission was 30 hours (range, 3-53 hours). The patients from Sichuan province accounted for 45.8% (22 cases), from other province for 52.1% (25 cases), and from abroad for 2.1% (1 case). Patients were primarily hurted by collapsing houses and flying stones. Thirty-seven patients (77.1%) had single injury, mainly involving 36 patients (75.0%) in limbs, and the other 11 patients (22.9%) had multiple injuries. Ten patients (20.8%) had open fractures, including 1 case rated as typeⅠ, 2 as typeⅡ, 3 as type Ⅲa, 2 as type Ⅲb, and 2 as type Ⅲc according to Gustilo classification criteria. The abbreviated injury scale (AIS) score was 2-3 in 37 patients of single injury, and the injury severity score (ISS) was 8-22 (mean, 13.2) in 11 patients of multiple injuries. Sixteen patients (33.3%) were diagnosed as mental disorders by Hamilton rating scale for anxiety (HAMA), including 8 cases had their anxiety scores≥29, 4 cases of 21-28, 3 cases of 14-20, and 1 case of 7-13. Of the 16 patients, 2 showed suicidal tendency.ResultsExcept 2 referrals, 30 patients received operation[28 patients (93.3%) for orthopaedic surgeries]and 16 patients received conservative treatment. The procedures included internal fixation, soft tissue debridement, external fixation, bipolar femoral head replacement, embolization of carotid cavernous sinus arteriovenous fistula, and amputation. Among the 46 patients treated in this hospital, 21 discharged from hospital at 2-12 days (mean, 6.7 days) after admission, the others received further rehabilitation in this hospital or local hospital. No undesirable consequence occurred in 16 patients with mental disorders. Five cases of infection occurred out of hospital were cured after debridement. No dead and nosocomial infection case reported.ConclusionIntensive treatment, specialist management, multidisciplinary team, and early intervention of nosocomial infection and deep venous thrombosis are the key to improve the general level of successful earthquake medical rescue.
