[Clinical protocols for the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis].

OBJECTIVE: To set up principles for the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). METHODS: The therapeutic principles and results of SAP in three periods were analyzed. Period I (1980 - 1990) was characterized by early surgical intervention supplemented with integrated traditional and western medical therapy, period II (1991 - 1993) by integrated traditional and western medical therapy supplemented with surgery for early complications, and period III (1994 - 1997) by integrated traditional and western medical therapy supplemented with surgery for local infectious complications only. RESULTS: Because of the improvement of intensive care, the operation rates kept declining in the three periods. They were 77.59%, 54.55% and 29.55% with a mortality rate of 40.52%, 17.17% and 11.36%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Integrated traditional and western medicine has been effective in most SAP patients, and surgery is indicated only for late complications such as necrotizing infection. Early surgery should be restricted.

Preoperative brachytherapy in endometrial cancer--proposal of a new clinical protocol.

High-dose rate brachytherapy preoperative treatment has been described. The proposal of a protocol contains an outline of patient qualifications for this kind of treatment, as well as necessary laboratory and diagnostic imaging examinations. Methods of brachytherapy (low-dose rate and high-dose rate), methods of surgery and postoperative management of patients with endometrial cancer are discussed.

A delayed subopaquing technique for treatment of stained dentition: clinical protocol.

Teeth with severe tetracycline staining can present a restorative challenge to the clinician. While a variety of options facilitate predictable aesthetic treatment of patients with such dentition, they often require significant tooth reduction in order to provide the dentist and the laboratory technician with adequate space for the restorative material to conceal the discoloration. This presentation outlines an alternative to this treatment that uses resin cement to mask the discolorations prior to the cementation of the porcelain laminate veneers.

A pit-and-fissure clinical protocol.

Decisions regarding prevention and treatment of dental caries lesions forming in enamel pits and fissures can be challenging because of factors such as the "hidden caries" phenomenon, types of materials to use, methods of bonding restorative materials, and concern for conserving tooth structure. This article identifies the techniques of sealing noncarious pits and fissures and restoring teeth having ongoing caries infection. Treatment protocols are described.

[Preservation of human corneas in organ culture: results of a feasibility clinical protocol].

This study reports donor corneas stored at +37 degrees C in organ culture incubation. The follow up is 12 months. The graft survival is 92%. Two grafts are failed before 6 months. The mean control thickness is 0.54 mm and the mean endothelial cell density 1625 cells per mm2. A mean decrease in cell density of 40.6% is recorded. This study demonstrates that banked donor material can be successfully employed for corneal transplantation.

[Computerized clinical protocol for occlusion].

In making a protocol it is necessary that all members of the team who are going to collect information have the same unity of criterion about the different variables that compose it. The drawing up of this document is as much or more necessary than the protocol itself. In this work we all data collected in the protocol and we give the explanations of each concept.
