Physiological Factor Evaluation of the Warm Humidification of Anesthetic Gas Nursing Care

Study on the Risk Factors of Pulmonary Infection after Laparoscopic Surgery and Analysis of the Detection Results of Drug-Resistant Bacteria

This study aimed to investigate and analyze the risk of pulmonary infection after laparoscopic surgery and the detection results of drug-resistant bacteria. With the laparoscopic technology developing rapidly in recent years and people's minimally invasive concept improving continuously, laparoscopic radical surgery has been widely used in the treatment of a variety of diseases. Laparoscopic surgery has the probability of causing complications. In order to avoid this, the risk factors after surgery were analyzed, and the drug-resistant bacteria were analyzed for accurate prevention and treatment. A total of 600 patients who underwent elective laparoscopic surgery in our hospital from January 2017 to September 2021 were included in the study. The risk factors and pathogen distribution of pulmonary infection were analyzed. The risk factors of pulmonary infection after laparoscopic surgery were hypoproteinemia, diabetes mellitus, pulmonary disease history, and perioperative blood transfusion. The main pathogens were Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. In clinical work, relevant nursing intervention measures can be developed for the above factors, so as to reduce the incidence of pulmonary infection. This study finds the risk factors for pulmonary infection after surgery, and the common drug-resistant bacteria has an indicative and guiding effect on the formulation of nursing management measures.

Propofol Alleviates Neuropathic Pain Induced by Chronic Contractile Injury by Regulating the Spinal glun2b-p38mapkepac1 Pathway

BACKGROUND

Propofol acts as an intravenous anesthetic cure which is widely used as a therapy for the craniocerebral injury that comprised surgical anesthesia as well as the sedation done in the intensive care units. Propofol is one of the most commonly used and efficient anesthetics where the painful effects are followed by an injection of propofol. In many cases, patients experience pain followed by anxiety, boredom, fear, and even myocardial ischemia.

OBJECTIVE

This study was performed to investigate the underlying mechanism of propofol and its effect on regulating spinal glun2b-p38mapkepac1 pathways in chronic contractile injury. Material and Methods. Contractile injury was performed by ligation around the nerve of the thigh region postanesthesia. Rats were divided into three groups to analyze the changes like mechanical allodynia by the paw withdrawal threshold and histopathological analysis for assessing cellular degradation. L4-L6 from the spinal dorsal horns were isolated and harvested for studying protein expression, by the method of western blotting and immunofluorescence analysis.

RESULTS

The pain caused due to mechanical allodynia in the paw region was highest at 1 hour postinduction and lasted for three days postinjury. Pain was significantly less in the group receiving propofol when compared with the isoflurane group for the first two hours of injury. In the propofol group, EPAC1, GluN2B, and p38 MAP K were significantly lower.

CONCLUSION

In the rat model of induced chronic contractile injury, postsurgery there was a suppression of the GluN2B-p38MAPK/EPAC1 signaling pathway in the propofol group. As the p38MAPK/EPAC pathway has a significant role in the postoperative hyperalgesia, thus our experiment suggests that propofol has analgesic effects.

Molecular Mechanism of Gas Anesthetics on the Invasion, Metastasis, and Chemosensitivity of Osteosarcoma Cells

BACKGROUND

Osteosarcoma is one of the most prominent bone cancers which has a predominant occurrence in children and adolescents. This study is focused on determining the effects of treatment of gas anesthetics on invasion, metastasis, and chemosensitivity in the progression of osteosarcoma cells. Material and Methods. The biological effects of the common gas anesthetics-desflurane, isoflurane, and sevoflurane-on osteosarcoma cells were studied and compared. The biological assays were performed for analysis of cell migration and proliferation.

RESULTS

Isoflurane and sevoflurane have shown significant inhibition in the osteosarcoma cells at clinically relevant concentrations. Desflurane has shown less potent action on cell migration and inhibition. All three gas anesthetics have shown inhibition in cell proliferation. The effective antiproliferative action was at a clinically significant dose. At low millimolar concentrations, cell apoptosis was moderately affected. Drug combination analysis with chemotherapeutic drugs showed relevant inhibition in cell migration. All three agents showed significant augmentation of chemotherapeutic drugs in suppression and inhibition of inducing apoptosis. The antimigration action is likely to affect the PI3K/AKT pathway and IGF-1.

CONCLUSION

The study demonstrates the proposed mechanisms of gas anesthetics and their differential effects on osteosarcoma cells and their survival, migration, growth, and chemosensitivity.
