Trans-radial access (TRA) has been a common approach to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Comparing with trans-femoral access (TFA), TRA is used as an alternative approach for PCI with less local complications, higher comfort level, and better outcome. In recent years, TRA has been paid more and more attention in peripheral vascular interventions. We reviewed recent developments in peripheral vascular intervention using TRA, with detail summary of the effectiveness, safety, limits, and future developments of it, aiming to improve the understanding and performance of TRA in interventionalists to benefit patients.
Objective To construct and compare logistic regression and decision tree models for predicting systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) in patients with type B aortic dissection (TBAD) after interventional surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of TBAD patients at Peking University Shenzhen Hospital from 2020 to 2024. The patients were divided into a SIRS group and a non SIRS group based on whether SIRS occurred within 24 hours after surgery. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of SIRS occurrence in TBAD intervention patients, and a decision tree model was constructed using SPSS Modeler to compare the predictive performance of the two models. Results A total of 742 patients with TBAD were included, including 579 males and 163 females, aged between 27 and 97 (58.85±10.79) years. Within 24 hours after intervention, a total of 506 patients developed SIRS, with an incidence rate of 68.19%. Logistic regression analysis showed that the extensive involvement of the dissection, the surgical time≥ 2 hours, PET coated stents implanted, serum creatinine, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, monocyte count (MONO), neutrophil count levels elevated, estimated glomerular filtration rate and decreased albumin levels were independent risk factors for SIRS (P<0.05). The decision tree model selected a total of 10 explanatory variables and 6 layers with 37 nodes, among which MONO was the most important predictor. The area under the decision tree model curve was 0.829 [95% CI (0.800, 0.856)], which was better than the logistic regression model's 0.690 [95% CI (0.655, 0.723)], and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). Conclusion The incidence of SIRS after TBAD intervention is high, and the decision tree model has better predictive performance than logistic regression. It can identify high-risk patients with higher accuracy and provide a practical tool for early clinical intervention.
ObjectiveTo investigate the anesthesia management of transcatheter ultrasound-guided percutaneous interventional therapy for pediatric patients with congenital heart disease at a mobile surgical platform. Methods From March to July 2023, 13 patients in remote areas underwent interventional surgery on the mobile truck operating platform. The patients undergoing general anesthesia using non-tracheal intubation were collected. ResultsFinally, 8 patients received monitored anesthesia care (MAC) with local anesthesia-assisted sedation and analgesia drugs under the supervision of anesthesiologists (general anesthesia using non-tracheal intubation), due to the patients having difficulty cooperating with the surgery (young age, nervous mood, and crying), including 5 males and 3 females with an average age of 6.95±3.29 years and an average weight of 19.50±6.04 kg. There were 6 patients diagnosed with atrial septal defect, 1 patient with residual shunt after patent ductus arteriosus ligation, and 1 patient with severe pulmonary stenosis by transthoracic ultrasonography. The surgical process was smooth, analgesia was perfect, anesthesia and surgical effect were satisfactory, postoperative recovery was satisfactory, and there were no surgical or anesthesia complications. The anesthesia time was 41.53±8.62 min, the operation time was 39.88±8.52 min, and the recovery time was 41.50±14.56 min. Conclusion Transthoracic ultrasound-guided interventional surgery is a minimally invasive approach for congenital heart disease, offering the advantages of zero radiation exposure. Non-tracheal general anesthesia preserved spontaneous breathing can be safely and effectively administered to pediatric patients who cannot cooperate in mobile operating platform.
