  • Chapter 6 the Expansion New Membership Recruitment Area of Thai Maternal and Child Health Network Under the Royal Patronage 6
    Chapter 6 The Expansion New Membership Recruitment Area of Thai Maternal and Child Health Network under the Royal Patronage 6 Thrathip Kolatat, Chantima Charastong At present, Thai Maternal and Child Health Network Board of Committee under the Royal Patronage has established project purposes that meet the principle objective, which is to lower the rate of preterm births. However, the board’s reexamination of the issue reveals the aforementioned strategy can be elevated to be policy-level strategy, the process of which includes setting up the clear strategic targets and public services, as well as considering the differences between service areas. It has also been suggested that personnel in those areas should be the ones coming up with action plans, to successfully reach the ultimate outcome1. Having studied the fundamental patterns of Thai Maternal and Child Health Network’s project management according to national context, the board has established an expansion model, which foresees the project expanding into various other areas, being carried out in a direction towards the expected outcome. Establishing a strategy map in each area begins with strengthening work forces in the provincial level. Since the public health system is directed by Office of Provincial Chief Medical Officer, which provides management and supports to community and district health promotion hospitals, not the general and regional hospitals. Thus, if there is to be an integration of both health promotion and treatment, an operational conference is essential. The conference would allow idea sharing and discussion between the multidisciplinary involved, namely obstetricians, pediatricians, general practitioners, registered nurses (from prenatal clinics, delivery rooms, emergency rooms, neonatal intensive care unit, neonatal wards and follow-up clinics, etc.), as well as public health technical officers, social medicine officers from community hospitals, general hospitals and regional hospitals.

    Brief Report Page 1 of 4 Evolution of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery in Thailand Sa-ard Treepongkaruna Department of surgery, Rajavithi hospital, College of Medicine, Rangsit university, Bangkok, Thailand Correspondence to: Sa-ard Treepongkaruna, MD, FRCST. Division of general surgery, Department of surgery, Rajavithi hospital, 2 Phyathai road, Rajathewee district, Bangkok 10400, Thailand. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: The first minimally invasive pancreatic surgery was initiated 25 years ago. Currently, laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy is accepted as an alternative treatment to open surgery. However, there is still skepticism about the benefit of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. Minimally invasive pancreatic surgery in Thailand is in the beginning. The author has successfully developed the new technique of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy which was performed in 35 patients at Rajavithi Hospital with satisfactory outcome. However, more effort is needed for further progression of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery in Thailand.

  • Short- and Long-Term Effectiveness of Keyhole Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia
    Original Article Short- and Long-Term Effectiveness of Keyhole Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia Methee Wongsirisuwan MD1 1 Department of Surgery, Rajavithi Hospital, College of Medicine, Rangsit University, Bangkok, Thailand Background: Trigeminal neuralgic pain most commonly occurs after neurovascular conlict and can be treated by microvascular decompression [MVD]. Objective: To discuss the effectiveness of keyhole retromastoid retrosigmoid MVD for pain control both in the short- and long-term. Materials and Methods: Between 2007 and 2016, 444 patients affected by trigeminal neuralgia [TN] underwent keyhole retromastoid retrosigmoid MVD. All patients had already tried conservative treatment using a variety of medications without effective beneit. Clinical presentation, preoperative imaging results, operative indings (causes of compression), pain outcomes, and recurrence rates were reviewed. Results: In the early phase, the irst keyhole MVD provided excellent outcomes in terms of achieving immediate pain control (436 of 444 patients, 98.19%, p = 0.000), while the second (re-)MVD of this group achieved favorable outcomes in only 66.66% of cases (p = 0.059). In the long-term group, 89.59% (198 of 221 patients) still reported complete pain remission, but the re-MVD for this group resulted in pain relief for only 38.46% of cases (p = 0.405). The number of serious complications found in the present series was very low. Conclusion: Keyhole MVD is an effective and reliable method of pain relief after TN both in the short- and long-term. Re-MVD in both groups attained less favorable outcomes, but the differences were not statistically signiicant. Thorough intraoperative exploration of the dorsal root entry zone [DREZ], and meticulous dissection by neurosurgeons are both mandatory to achieve pain relief and reduce the incidence of complications after MVD.

  • (I-131) Dose for the Treatment of Hyperthyroidism in Rajavithi Hospital
    Radioiodine (I-131) Dose for the Treatment of Hyperthyroidism in Rajavithi Hospital Pichit Kuanrakcharoen MD* * Department of Nuclear Medicine, Rajavithi Hospital, College of Medicine, Rangsit University, Bangkok, Thailand Background: The main cause of hyperthyroidism is diffuse toxic goiter (Graves’ disease), and the treatment of choice after medical therapy failure is radioiodine (I-131). There are two common methods of determining the optimal I-131 dose: calculated dose or fixed dose. The calculated dose method is based on the following formula: 75-200 microcuri/gram of thyroid gland divided by the percentage of radioiodine uptake at 24 hours (24-hour RAIU). As this is quite complex, some centers use fixed doses, such as 5, 10 or 15 mCi because it is simpler. At Rajavithi Hospital, the applied dose of I-131 is determined based on the thyroid gland weight assessed by palpation and other clinical factors. Objective: To study the mean I-131 dose for the initial treatment of hyperthyroidism in Rajavithi Hospital, to find the clinical factors that correlate with I-131 treatment dose, and to devise a formula to predict the optimal I-131 treatment dose. Material and Method: This was a retrospective study of 510 patients with a diagnosis of hyperthyroidism who received initial I-131 treatment at the Department of Nuclear Medicine in Rajavithi Hospital between January 2014 and June 2015. Baseline characteristics including age, sex, age at diagnosis, duration of antithyroid drug (ATD) therapy, gland weight (g), 3-hour RAIU and I-131 treatment dose were reviewed from medical records. Results: The mean age + SD was 41.93+14.11 years (range 14-81 years), and the male to female ratio was 4.1:1.

Email: [email protected]. Background: Since most of Thai cancer patients receiving high emetogenic chemotherapy do not have access to neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptor antagonists or palonosetron as recommended by international guidelines for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) prevention. We decided to evaluate the efficacy of olanzapine with the real-life practice antiemetic drugs ondansetron and dexamethasone, in prevention of CINV resulting from doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide regimen in early-stage breast cancer patients. Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we compared olanzapine with a placebo in combination with ondansetron and dexamethasone in early-stage breast cancer patients receiving doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 plus cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2.
