Accurate measurements of voltage and current from electrosurgery are the basis of development of electrosurgery with feedback function. We, therefore, developed a parameter measurement system based on PC, with high voltage and current from electrosurgery being sensed with transformers, amplified, filtered, transformed into single-ended signals, and then into RMS signals. The root mean square (RMS) signals were transformed into digital signals through DAQ card and the data was processed in PC with Labview. The process included sampling, displaying and storage. The experiment results indicated that the measurement system could measure the output parameters from electrosurgery steadily and correctly so that the development of the system has been successful. It can be the basis of development of embedded parameters measurement system and can provide accurate feedback information for intellectual electrosurgery.
Objective To explore the application of robot-assisted pedicle screw fixation combined with total endoscopic decompression and interbody fusion in single segment lumbar decompression and fusion. Methods A total of 27 cases undergoing single segment lumbar decompression and fusion between August 2020 and May 2021 in the People’s Hospital of Deyang City were retrospectively collected. They were divided into group A and B according to their surgery method. The patients in group A underwent robot-assisted pedicle screw fixation combined with total endoscopic decompression and interbody fusion surgery, while the ones in group B underwent traditional posterior decompression and fusion. The operation time, amount of bleeding, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score before operation and one month and three months after operation, and success rate of screw placement were compared. Results There were 12 patients in group A, 5 males and 7 females, aged (59.83±6.79) years, and 15 patients in group B, 6 males and 9 females, aged (53.73±14.87) years. The amount of intraoperative bleeding [(195.00±45.23) vs. (240.00±47.06) mL] and postoperative hospital stay [(5.92±1.56) vs. (8.33±3.62) d] in group A were less than those in group B (P<0.05), while the operation time [(185.80±52.13) vs. (160.70±21.37) min] and the success rate of screw placement [100.0% (48/48) vs. 96.7% (58/60)] had no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The VAS score and ODI score of the two groups decreased significantly over time (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in VAS score between the two groups at the same time point before operation, one month after operation, or three months after operation (P>0.05). The ODI score of group A was better than that of group B one month after operation (P=0.010), but there was no significant difference between the two groups before operation or three months after operation (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with traditional open surgery, the application of robot-assisted total endoscopic lumbar decompression and fusion technology in single segment lumbar fusion has good early clinical outcome, high success rate of screw placement, and small trauma, which is beneficial to early functional recovery and has the significance of further exploring its application prospect.
Objective To explore the diagnosis value of the low dose multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) imaging in pulmonary fungal infection in order to improve its diagnosis level. Methods CT manifestations of 106 cases of pulmonary fungal infection confirmed by operation, pathology, mycetes cultivation and follow-ups of clinical therapy were retrospectively analyzed. All cases underwent low dose MSCT examinations including CARE dose 4D and sinogram affirmed iterative reconstruction technology, and 6 cases underwent contrast-enhanced CT scanning. Results Among the basic MSCT findings of pulmonary fungal infection, they showed patch-nodular type in 54 cases, solid variant in 38 cases, and tumor type in 14 cases. In all cases, 91 cases displayed as mulifocality, 83 cases as polymorphism and 78 cases as polytropy. Among the 106 cases with comparative distinctive MSCT manifestations, bud of branch sign were showed in 39 cases, halo sign in 32 cases, wedge shape consolidation in 19 cases, ice needle sign in 15 cases, crescentic sign in 11 cases, air ring sign in 6 cases, and contra-halo sign in 4 cases. The nodules in the cavities were not enhanced in enhanced scan in 5 cases. Conclusions There are some distinctive MSCT findings in patients with pulmonary fungal infection. Pulmonary fungal infection can be diagnosed with typical MSCT findings in close combination with the clinical information.

Results More males were injured or dead than females in the 5 300 road traffic accidents (male : female = 2.58︰1 ). The young adults aged from 16 to 55 accounted for 75.72% of all the casualties. The workers, agriculture employees and students had the largest percentage (52.73%) of the injuries. Walking and riding motorcycles and bicycles were the main causes leading to the injury, which occupied 59.34%. Conclusion The effective measures to reduce trauma due to traffic accidents will attribute to enhance the personnel awareness of road safety education, improve the publicity work and enforcement of traffic laws, and strengthen collaboration of different epartments.
Objective To summarize the cl inical characteristics of 596 patients with fracture in Wenchuan earthquake and to investigate the therapeutic methods and effects of early treatment. Methods From May 12th 2008 to May 21st 2008, 596 patients with fracture caused by Wenchuan earthquake were treated, including 283 males and 313 females aged1.9-102 years (median 43 years). The time from injury to hospital ization varied from 12 minutes to 4 days. There were 132 cases of upper extremity fracture, 496 cases lower extremity fracture, 10 cases clavicular fracture, 16 cases scapular fracture, 23 cases pelvis fracture, and 59 cases spinal fracture. Among them, 183 cases were open fracture and 413 cases were closed fracture. And 214 cases had multiple fracture (35.9%) and 68 cases had crush injury in l imbs which scored (6.84 ± 2.48) points according to the mangled extremity severity score (MESS). Thirty-six cases were combined with neurovascular injury. The wound of the open fracture was contaminated at different degrees, but no gas gangrene was observed. Open fracture was treated with suturing or no suturing after debridement, open reduction and internal or external fixation. Closed fracture was fixed with spl ints, cast and traction. Forty-nine patients whom were highly suspected as osseous fascia compartment syndrome received incision decompression timely, and 34 patients whose MESS were above 7.0 points or suffering from crush injury of l ifethreatening systemic symptoms received amputation. Results Apart from 34 patients receiving amputation, 460 patients achieved functional reduction of fracture after manipulative reduction and 102 cases got satisfactory reduction after surgery. Postoperatively, 289 patients were transferred to other hospitals. Among the rest 307 patients, 34 with severe wound infection were healed after multiple debridement, anti-infection, and skin flap transplantation (16 cases healed by first intention and 18 cases healed by second intention), 42 cases with crush syndrome were treated with open decompression and amputation, and nodeep venous thrombosis of lower l imb, stress ulcer and death were observed after operation (29 cases healed by first intention and 13 cases healed by second intention). Conclusion By aiming at the features of fracture caused by earthquake, the prompt and professional treatment can achieve good therapeutic effects.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) with autologous buccal micro mucosa and micro skin graft in vaginoplasty. MethodsA retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 67 patients with vaginal agenesis treated between July 2006 and June 2013. ADM and mixed particles were used in 20 cases (ADM group) and mixed particles graft in 47 cases (control group) in vaginoplasty. There was no significant difference in age between 2 groups (t=0.233, P=0.816). The depth, diameter, and volume of neovagina, epithelization time, stent needing time, and female sexual function index (FSFI) score were compared between 2 groups. ResultsThere was no significant difference in operation time and amount of bleeding between 2 groups (t=-1.922, P=0.059; t=0.398, P=0.692). The patients were followed up 11-38 months (mean, 16.08 months). Fifteen cases in ADM group and 29 cases in control group had sexual life after operation. Bleeding after operation occurred in 6 cases (2 in ADM group and 4 in control group). No stenosis was observed. Difference in epithelization time was not statistically significant (t=-1.938, P=0.057). However, the stent needing time of ADM group was significantly shorter than that of control group (t=7.020, P=0.000). The neovagina was ideal in wetness degree, smoothness, flexibility, and hairlessness during follow-up. The depth, diameter, and volume of vagina had no significant difference between 2 groups (P>0.05) at last follow-up, which were close to normal vagina. The other patients had normal sexual function except 1 patient whose FSFI score was less than 23; no statistically significant difference was found in FSFI score between 2 groups (P>0.05). ConclusionOn the basis of mixed particles grafting, the ADM could improve trestle structure for resisting contracture. The effectiveness is better than merely mixed particles graft. The procedure has satisfactory anatomical and functional results.
