[An analysis of the characteristics of perioperative cardiac troponin elevation in orthopaedic surgical patients].
Objective: Perioperative myocardial infarction remains a severe complication in non-cardiac surgery and is one of the major causes of death. Cardiac troponin (cTn) I elevation is associated with short-term and long-term mortality. The aim of the study was to assess the proportion rate of cTnI elevation and its clinical characteristics among patients admitted for orthopaedic surgery with or without cardiovascular events. ⋯ Conclusions: Perioperative elevation of troponin is common in patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery. Most postoperative AMI were NSTEMI and with absent or atypical ischemia symptoms. Monitoring troponin levels and electrocardiograph in at-risk patients is needed to find most of the AMI.

[The relationship between arterial blood lactate clearance, prognosis and myocardial damage in patients with septic shock after early goal-directed therapy].
Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of arterial blood lactate clearance based on central venous oxygen saturation and perfusion index in patients with septic shock related myocardial injury after early goal-directed therapy. Methods: One hundred and fifty-seven patients with septic shock after early resuscitation were enrolled from August 2013 to July 2016 in ICU at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Parameters indicating early resuscitation included central venous pressure (CVP) 8-12 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),mean arterial pressure (MAP) >65 mmHg, central venous oxygen saturation(ScvO(2))>70% and urine volume (UO) >0.5ml·kg(-1)·h(-1) and arterial blood lactate (Lac) >2 mmoL/L. ⋯ On day 3,the proportion of elevated troponin I in group B was 70.0%, which was significantly higher than that of group B (29.3%,P<0.008).⑶Logistic regression analysis suggested that the rate of Lac clearance at T4 in group B was related to the incidence of myocardial damage on day 2 and 3 in ICU. Conclusions: The combination of PI and ScvO(2) as a resuscitation target in patients with septic shock facilitates Lac clearance as the goal of resuscitation. The rate of arterial Lac clearance based on ScvO(2) and PI is correlated with myocardial injury in patients with septic shock after early goal-directed therapy.
