Good neurological outcome(Glasgow Outcome Scale score of 4 to 5) rates in 6 months after injury were 81.3% in the therapeutic group and 47.6% in the control group respectively(P< 0.05). Whereas,there were more cases complicated with subdural effusion in the therapeutic group than those in the control group(43.8% and 9.5%,respectively,P< 0.05).
Conclusion It is feasible to predict severity and outcome of chest trauma or chest trauma complicated by multiple trauma by using ISS,TRISS,ASCOT and ASCOT_CHINA_Ps based on AIS-98.It becomes reasonable for predictable and miscarriage of esti- mate indices inlcuding TRISS,ASCOT and ASCOT_CHINA_Ps.
Methods A total of 131 patients with acute stroke were analyzed retrospectively(nonsampling) with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) and were divided into good prognosis(NIHSS<15) and poor prognosis(NIHSS≥15 or death) groups according to stroke outcome.
The functional outcome of the patients complicated with infections was significantly worse than that of the cases without infections,assessed by BI(P<0.01),mRS(P<0.01)and NIHSS(P<0.01) on being discharged from the hospital and by BI(P<0.05) 6 months later.
The outcome shows that the communication system of an agent-based automated substation improves the accuracy and reliability of the data transfer and presents it in real-time.
The BCS in China predominantly belongs to the IVC type rather than the intrahepatic type in Western; the outcome from its conventional therapy, at least for the moment, is better than that of liver transplantation.
Surface smoothing and reconstruction of titanium alloys and ZrO2-Y2O3 coatings have been observed as one of the typical outcome under high-intensity pulsed ion beam irradiation.
Abstract The study is designed to investigate the effect of early reperfusion on clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Patients (Pts) with AMI were treated with thrombolytic agents (defibrase, urokinase,streptokinase or r-tPA) or PTCA if thrombolysis failed to achieve recanalization. Coronary arteriography was performed before or/and within 90 min of thrombolysis.Serum CPK were measured serially and LVEF by nuclear blcod pool scan was determined before discharge. The severity of the ...
Twenty six patients with massive hemoptysis, were treated by Nd: YAG laser irradiation via bronchoscopy. In some patients the blood loss reached 800~ 1000 ml or even more each time and the patients showed severe hemodynamic changes. Diagnosis was made pathologically or cytologically in all cases prior to laser therapy. All patients received routine treatment previously but failed to stopping the bleeding. Acoording to our experience obtained by experiments on rats and guinea pigs, we treated the patients by...
AbstractA prospective trial was conducted in 386 criticallyill surgical patients,the APACHE Ⅱ score was used toquantify the severity of illness and to judge the out-come.Admission APACHE Ⅱ score of these patientsaveraged 15.6±5.4,the mortality rates rose from1.9%to 100%when the APACHEⅡ score increasedfrom 0 to 38.Thescore was closely correlated with thesubsequent risk of hospital death for these patients(r=0.75P<0.001).Critically ill surgical patientswould be well served by APACHE Ⅱ for quality assur- ance ...
