[The impacts of the multidisciplinary team model on the length of stay and hospital expenses of patients with lung cancer].
To explore the impacts of the multidisciplinary team model on the average length of stay and hospital expenses of patients with lung cancer. ⋯ The multidisciplinary team model was an effective measure to cut down the hospital expenses and shorten the length of stay of lung cancer patients, especially for the first hospitalization. Patients may benefit from the multidisciplinary team approach according to their stages. On the basis of reducing the hospital costs and the length of stay, it further reduced the gap of the length of stay and hospital expenses between patients with Ia-IIIa and IIIb-IV diseases, while patients with stage Ia-IIIa disease seemed to benefit more.

[Clinical investigation of detecting the bronchi responsible for pulmonary air leakage by injecting methylene blue saline in 27 cases with intractable pneumothorax and bronchial fistula].
To establish a new method for detecting the bronchus responsible for pulmonary air leakage by injecting methylene blue saline and to evaluate its efficacy and safety in cases with intractable pneumothorax and bronchial fistula. ⋯ The bronchi responsible for pulmonary air leakage in patients with spontaneous pneumothorax and bronchial fistula could be determined by injecting methylene blue saline into the airways. This novel method does not require special instruments, and is easy to perform with a high safety and effectiveness.
