Acute pancreatitis is a common surgical acute abdomen in clinical practice. With the development of minimally invasive technology, more and more treatment methods are being applied to acute pancreatitis, especially for severe acute pancreatitis and acute biliary pancreatitis. At present, the efficacy of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of acute pancreatitis has been widely recognized. In terms of minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment of acute pancreatitis, the “SELECT” concept of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment has emerged. Based on the severity and etiology of acute pancreatitis, the optimal combination of multiple endoscope (Spyglass, encoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, laparoscopy, endoscopic ultrasound, choledochoscopy) is selected, and combined with traditional Chinese medicine treatment. With a patient-centered approach, we have achieved minimally invasive, individualized, and precise treatment of acute pancreatitis through the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
ObjectiveTo summarize the evolving concept in treatment of intertrochanteric fractures and the development of internal fixation devices. MethodsRelated literature concerning the implant devices to treat intertrochanteric fractures was reviewed and analyzed in terms of the biomechanical characteristics, clinical application, and complications. ResultsThe treatment of intertrochanteric fractures has undergone an evolving concept from conservative treatment to surgical treatment. Surgery strategies include extramedullary fixation and intramedullary fixation. Intramedullary fixation has gradually become the main treatment of intertrochanteric fractures due to its minimally invasive and biomechanical advantages. However, the current intramedullary fixation system still can not reconstruct the medial cortical support of the proximal femur, which leads to some failures in the treatment of unstable fractures. ConclusionThe development of internal fixation of intertrochanteric fractures is based on the deep understanding and biomechanical theory of intertrochanteric fractures in clinical practice. In the future, the updated design of internal fixation devices will depend on the treatment principle of reconstruction of medial support and secondary stabilization of intertrochanteric fractures, and finally the purpose of improving success rate and reducing postoperative complications of intertrochanteric fracture will achieved.
China is in the best period of development since modern times, and in the face of the “great changes” in the world, China’s medical and health field needs to reconstruct the medical service model actively. Under the guidance of the “Healthy China” strategy in the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics, full life cycle health service emerged as the times require. The whole life cycle health service is based on the two focuses of the whole population and the whole life cycle, with the main characteristics of “system continuity” and “fair accessibility”, aiming to achieve the overall improvement of the health level of the whole people. This article reviews the concept, connotation and research progress of whole life cycle health service, aiming to implement the strategy of “Healthy China”, so as to provide reference for carrying out the whole life cycle health service with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of hysteroscopic treatment for retained products of conception (RPOC) combined with enhanced myometrial vascularity (EMV) in ambulatory surgery mode. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients who underwent hysteroscopic treatment for RPOC combined with EMV in ambulatory surgery mode at West China Second University Hospital between May 2021 and May 2024, including their basic information and surgical related conditions. Results A total of 54 patients were included, with an average age of (33.37±4.54) years and an average number of pregnancies of 3.14±1.56. The preoperative blood level of human chorionic gonadotropin was 11.45 (5.00, 82.96) mU/mL. Color Doppler ultrasound showed an average size of pregnancy residue (2.47±0.77) cm. The average peak systolic velocity was (55.13±18.55) cm/s. The intraoperative blood loss was 17.63 (1.00, 300.00) mL. The average surgical time was (30.07±20.64) minutes. The hospital stay was 0.69 (0.50, 1.00) days. There was 1 case of postoperative complications (incidence rate 1.9%), which had the second hysteroscopy to remove retained pregnancy tissue one month after the first surgery due to RPOC. There were 6 cases of postoperative re pregnancy. Conclusion Hysteroscopic treatment for RPOC combined with EMV in ambulatory surgery mode is safe and feasible, and is worth promoting.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of a new rehabilitation intervention model based on International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Healthy (ICF) concept in perioperative treatment on patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).MethodsFrom June 2017 to January 2019, AIS patients with Cobb angle below 80° were randomly divided into experimental group and control group by the method of randomized block design. The patients in the control group received routine perioperative rehabilitation intervention, while the patients in the experimental group received rehabilitation mode intervention based on ICF concept. The therapeutic effect of the two groups including functional and activity dimensions was observed.ResultsA total of 40 patients were included, with 20 in each group. Two patients withdrew the control group. On the fourth day after surgery, the total score of Modified Barthel Index (50.55±8.87 vs. 18.99±5.63; t=13.264, P<0.001) and Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22) (3.68±0.13 vs. 3.27±0.11; t=10.355, P<0.001) in the experimental group were all better than those in the control group. In the SRS-22 scores, statistically significant differences in comparison of function (2.79±0.29 vs. 1.90±0.48; t=6.884, P<0.001), and self image (3.91±0.27 vs. 3.38±0.32; t=5.539, P<0.001) between the two groups were found. There was no statistically significant difference in pain indicators and muscle strength between the two groups in the two postoperative evaluations (P>0.05). ConclusionsThe treatment based on the concept of ICF can improve the daily living ability in the short term with the safe and acceptable premise. The concept of stimulating patient autonomy, improving patient independence, and promoting social treatment, may improve the overall state of the patients.

ObjectiveTo improve the comprehensive service ability of the hospital, improve the satisfaction of medical care, implement the requirements of fine management, and enrich the connotation of hospital internal performance improvement.MethodsIn July 2017, based on the concept of approach-deployment-learning-integration, the internal performance improvement model of Children’s Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University was constructed to form a management closed loop.ResultsFrom 2016 to 2019, the average length of hospital stay was reduced from 6.90 d to 6.47 d, the patient satisfaction was elevated from 92.89% to 93.80%, the proportion of drugs was reduced from 35.25% to 30.44%, the proportion of materials was reduced from 23.35% to 18.55%, and the proportion of difficult operations of grade Ⅲ and Ⅳ was elevated from 66.98% to 67.68%.ConclusionThe improvement of key performance indicators depends on the implementation of external policies, the integration of scientific management elements, the cooperation of multiple subjects, and the construction of information system.
ObjectiveTo explore the predictors of seizures during pregnancy, and to explore whether seizure control in the 6 months and 1 year prior to pregnancy can predict the risk of seizures during pregnancy and the occurrence of adverse maternal and infant outcomes, so as to guide the choice of the best fertility timing for women with epilepsy (WWE).MethodsA total of 46 WWE with 48 pregnancies were enrolled in Epilepsy Clinics of Tianjin Medical University from August 2016 to January 2020. Retrospective analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of epileptic seizures in pregnancy. The patients were grouped according to the time of absence of seizures during pregnancy. To analyze the influence of epileptic seizure, pregnancy complications and pregnancy outcome.Results Among 48 pregnancies, the risk of premature rupture of membranes was significantly higher in patients with epilepsy than those without epilepsy (34.6% vs. 0.0%), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the risk of PIH, GDM, gestational anemia and pregnancy complications (P>0.05). For women who had seizure during pregnancy, the mean birth weight of the offspring was slightly lower, and the incidence of low birth weight and fetal distress was higher, but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05); Seizures in the 6 months before pregnancy were significantly associated with seizures during pregnancy [RR=4.28, 95%CI (2.10, 8.74), P<0.01]. Further, the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes increased significantly [RR=2.00, 95%CI (1.10, 3.65), P<0.05] for WWE who had seizure in 6 month before pregnancy; The rates of seizures during pregnancy in the two groups were 25.0% and 20.0%, but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Compared with the 6-months, the ≥1 year group had a lower risk of PIH and gestational anemia, and the offspring had a lower risk of low birth weight, premature delivery and fetal distress, but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05).ConclusionEnsuring seizure-free at least 6 months before pregnancy will significantly reduce the probability of seizures during pregnancy, and is significantly associated with a lower incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Women of childbearing age with epilepsy are advised to plan pregnancy after reaching seizure-free at least 6 months.
Objective To review the characteristics and deficiencies of various liposuction methods to provide reference for choosing more suitable liposuction in clinic and ideas for the improvement and development of liposuction equipment. Methods The literature related to liposuction in recent years was consulted, and the principle, indications as well as existing problems were reviewed. Results Liposuction can be divided into two categories according to the principles of fat separation. The first type relies on physical cutting to separate fat, including suction-assisted liposuction (SAL), power-assisted liposuction (PAL), and water-assisted liposuction (WAL). SAL and PAL are simple to operate and low in price, but the effect of liposuction mainly depends on the experience of the surgeon, and complications such as uneven appearance, hematoma, and ecchymosis may occur. WAL saves time and effort, but has lower cost performance. The second type relies on energy destruction to separate fat, including ultrasound-assisted liposuction, laser-assisted liposuction, and radiofrequency-assisted liposuction. This type of surgery has the advantages of less trauma, fast postoperative recovery, and skin tightening. However, the equipment is more expensive, and has a risk of skin burns. Conclusion Liposuction can effectively reduce local fat accumulation, but it still has limitations. Equipment improvement and fat transplantation are important directions for liposuction’s future development.
Ilizarov’s technology is an internationally recognized clinical treatment method for limb orthopedics, but there are many complications related to external fixation. With the development and progress of the times, the remote-control intramedullary lengthening nails had risen to prominence on the international stage as the second generation of orthomelic technology based on Ilizarov’s technology. Since the first remote-control intramedullary lengthening nail appeared in the 1980s, after more than 40 years of development, there are currently more than 3 types of extension mechanisms in remote-control intramedullary lengthening nails and a mature and stable clinical treatment model has been formed during the past long-term clinical treatment and experiments, such as the End-Point-First (EPF) program proposed by Professor Peter H. Thaller in Germany. Compared with Ilizarov’s technology, the remote-control intramedullary lengthening nail has obvious advantages in convenience, comfort, risk of infection, soft tissue injury, postoperative pain, and controllability of limb lengthening. This article mainly introduces the development and clinical treatment concept of remote-control intramedullary lengthening nail and the latest clinical treatment status of limb lengthening therapy abroad, hoping to provide new cognition and ideas for the further development of limb orthopedics in China.
