Does Division of the Pulmonary Ligaments Affect the Outcomes after Thoracoscopic Lobectomy: A Retrospective Study of 72 Cases

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2015.592

Synopsis:

This study aimed to compare the outcomes among patients in whom inferior pulmonary ligaments (IPLs) were preserved or not preserved during superior lobectomy, evaluate the influence of dissecting the IPLs in VATS superior lobectomy on bronchial distortion and the recovery of pulmonary function.

ABSTRACT

Background: Whether dissecting or not the inferior pulmonary ligaments (IPLs) during superior video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lobectomy for early stage lung cancer remains controversial.

Objective: To evaluate the influence of dissecting the IPLs in VATS superior lobectomy on bronchial distortion and recovery of pulmonary function.

Clinical Comparative Analysis of Neonatal Scalp Vein and Axillary Vein Catheterization

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2015.174

Synopsis:

AVC was safe and effective towards the neonates, so it could be used as the preferred choice for the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) neonatal intravenous remaining, thus it was worthy of the neonatal clinical application.

ABSTRACT

Objective: The aim of the current study was to study the application effects of axillary vein catheterization (AVC) in the clinical nursing.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out towards the detailed information of children that were performed AVC, and the related situations of scalp vein catheterization (SVC) and AVC were compared.
