简介:目的探讨超声乳化术中超声波对兔视网膜的近期影响.方法选取普通家兔30只(60眼),随机分为A,B,C3组,每组10只兔(10眼),且使每只兔保持1眼属实验组,另1眼属对照组.实验组行超声乳化术,对照组行晶状体囊外摘除术,各组分别在术毕、术后6,24h剥离视网膜.测定视网膜中谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(glutathioneperoxidase,GSH-Px)活性、超氧化物歧化酶(superoxidedismutase,SOD)活性、脂质过氧化物(lipidperoxide,LPO)的含量.结果与对照组比较实验组GSH-Px活性在各时点均低于对照组(P<0.05);实验组SOD活性低于对照组,术毕2组间的差别有显著性(P<0.05),术后6,24h差别无显著性(P>0.05);实验组LPO含量在各时点均高于对照组(P<0.01).超声波单一因素对GSH-Px活性的影响在3个不同时点差别无统计学意义(F=2.33,P=0.1170);对SOD活性的影响在不同时点不全相等(F=3.92,P=0.0321);对LPO含量的影响在不同时点不全相等(F=9.10,P=0.001).结论从脂质过氧化的角度,超声乳化术中超声波对兔视网膜可造成一定程度的损伤,在术后24h没有完全恢复.

简介:光学相干断层扫描血管成像(opticalcoherencetomographyangiography,OCTA)是近几年来新兴的眼科影像学检查方法,OCTA具有无需造影剂、高分辨率、检查快捷、三维成像等优势,在视网膜静脉阻塞(retinalveinocclusion,RVO),糖尿病视网膜病变(diabeticretinopathy,DR),脉络膜新生血管(choroidalneovascularization,CNV),青光眼视神经损伤,眼前节等领域应用潜力巨大,但OCTA也有应用的局限性。本文对OCTA的成像原理及特点做简单介绍,就OCTA的临床应用进展做一综述。
简介:目的探讨如何对翼状胬肉手术患者术前准备流程及护理措施优化,以缩短患者的等候时间,避免护理缺陷及安全风险,从而提高护理质量。方法以2012年至2015年12月共收治约654例688眼翼状胬肉患者作为研究对象,随机分为观察组和对照组。对照分析2组的护理质量及患者和医生对术前准备的满意度。结果采用优化护理流程的观察组择期手术前准备不完善率10.3%,手术医生满意度95.17%,患者满意度91.03%,与对照组术前准备不完善率30.77%,手术医生满意率71.98%,患者满意度78.57%,相比较差异有统计意义(P﹤0.05),观察组手术室接患者时间少于10min占93.79%,与对照组的72.53%比较差异有统计学意义(P﹤0.05),缩短了转运时间。结论术前准备中实施优质护理的确能提高护理质量及患者、手术医生对于术前准备的满意度。
简介:目的探讨纤维蛋白封闭剂(fibrinsealing,FS)在功能性鼻内镜鼻窦手术中的临床应用价值。方法随机将163例行鼻内镜鼻窦手术患者分成FS组、Merocel高膨胀材料组和凡士林油纱条组,比较不同填塞材料的术后临床表现及远期影响。结果FS组在鼻内镜鼻窦手术中止血效果差于高膨胀材料及凡士林油纱条组,但术后头痛及鼻腔疼痛较轻,鼻黏膜反应轻,创口愈合快,鼻黏膜上皮化快,鼻腔粘连少。结论鼻内镜鼻窦手术中应用FS术后头痛及鼻黏膜反应轻,值得临床进一步实践、应用。
