When using a classic lumboperitoneal shunt, laparotomy is inevitable for peritoneal catheter implantation, which is time consuming and difficult for unskilled neurosurgeons. A minimally invasive techn...
Ten patients with communicating hydrocephalus received a lumboperitoneal shunt through percutaneous abdominal puncture for catheterization. The safety and effectiveness of percutaneous abdominal punct...
The surgery was successfully completed in 10 patients. The average operation time was nearly 30 minutes. No patients reported abdominal organ damage. None of the 10 patients had other complications su...
The technique of percutaneous abdominal puncture for catheterization with the assistance of a guidewire is a simple, safe, and effective way to treat communicating hydrocephalus....
Although transient voiding dysfunction is common after surgical correction of pelvic organ prolapse, it has not been well studied in women undergoing colpocleisis....
This study aimed to identify characteristics associated with discharge home with a urinary catheter in women undergoing colpocleisis....
This is a secondary analysis of a multicenter prospective study examining the effect of pelvic support, symptoms, and satisfaction in women undergoing colpocleisis. Publicly accessible deidentified da...
Of the 136 women (mean age, 77.8 ± 5.5 years) undergoing colpocleisis in the index study, 68 (50.0%) were discharged with catheter. Baseline characteristics did not differ, except that the catheter gr...
In women undergoing colpocleisis, higher preoperative PVR and levator myorrhaphy were associated with discharge with catheter....
Despite the extensive use of arterial catheterization (AC), clinical effectiveness of AC to alter the outcomes among patients with sepsis and septic shock has not been evaluated. The purpose of this s...
Adult patients with sepsis from Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care database were screened to conduct this retrospective observational study. Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to es...
A total of 14,509 septic patients without shock and 4,078 septic shock patients were identified. 3,489 pairs in sepsis patients without shock and 589 pairs in septic shock patients were yielded respec...
In hemodynamically stable septic patients, AC is independently associated with higher in-hospital mortality, while in patients with septic shock, AC was not associated with improvements in hospital mo...
The recent development of endovascular therapies has been accompanied by increasingly accurate navigation simulations to assist surgeons in decision making processes or to produce training tools. Howe...
Catheter-related urinary tract infections, especially those caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, are extremely difficult to treat due to limited therapeutic choices. Therefore, removing cathe...
To investigate the efficacy of catheterization before transperineal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy in reducing risk of urethrorrhagia. Currently, transperineal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TP...
A cohort study was conducted in our hospital from January 2021 to September 2021. This study included 93 patients who participated in transperineal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy. We compared the r...
A total of 93 men were recruited in the cohort study, and the numbers of patients in group 1 and group 2 were 64 and 29, respectively. There were 34 patients (53.1%) of urethrorrhagia in group 1, and ...
The result of this cohort study suggested that preoperative catheterization can significantly reduce the risk of urethrorrhagia....
To summarize the advantages of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheters without capsular puncture (only one pneumoperitoneum needle) puncture technique conducted by our center....
The study examines the clinical data of PD patients (including the general situation of patients, intraoperative and postoperative characteristics, and complications) undergoing pneumoperitoneum needl...
A total of 153 surgical cases were collected. There were 91 males and 62 females. The mean (± standard deviation) age was 56.1 ± 18.6 years, and the mean (± standard deviation) follow-up time was 16.7...
Relative to open operation, the peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheters with pneumoperitoneum needle puncture technique has the following advantages: simpler operation, shorter operation time, less bleedin...
Coronary catheterization (CC) procedure inevitably exposes patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) to radiation, while cumulative radiation exposure may lead to higher risk of cancer....
This multi-center, retrospective study was based on the CC procedure in Cardiorenal ImprovemeNt II cohort (CIN-II, NCT05050877) among five regional central tertiary teaching hospitals in China between...
Of 136,495 hospitalized survivors without cancer at baseline (mean age: 62.3 ± 11.1 years, 30.9% female), 116,992 patients (85.7%) underwent CC procedure once, 15,184 patients (11.1%) on twice, and 4,...
Our data suggest that substantial proportion of CVD patients are exposed to multiple high levels of low-dose ionizing radiation from CC procedure, which is associated with an increased risk of cancer ...

BACKGROUND Foraminal puncture is a key step in foraminal endoscopic surgery, but the radiation dosage poses a clinical risk to patients. To reduce the radiation dosage, we investigated the feasibility...
Augmenting X-ray (XR) fluoroscopy with 3D anatomic overlays is an essential technique to improve the guidance of the catheterization procedures. Unfortunately, cardiac and respiratory motion compromis...
The CNN is trained on reference data generated from tracking of the rapid pacing catheter tip by applying template matching with normalized cross-correlation (CC). The developed CNN motion compensatio...
The performance of the CNN motion compensation model was evaluated on a total of 1690 fluoroscopic image pairs from ten clinical datasets. The CNN model-based motion compensation method clearly overpe...
A novel CNN model-based method for automatic motion compensation during fusion of 3D anatomic models with XR fluoroscopy is introduced and its integration with a real software application demonstrated...
