The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of the KneeMD subject-controlled knee rehabilitation device on the incidence of postoperative flexion contracture.
Post burn flexion contractures are common in pediatric age group. Release of contracture and coverage with full thickness skin graft (FTSG) is a widely used procedure for this problem. This procedure is routinely done under tourniquet control because bloodless operative field is essential to visualize important neurovascular structures in hand. Use of tumescent technique without a tourniquet is gaining acceptance because it avoids complications associated with tourniquet use, maintains a blood less surgical field and decreases operative time. Furthermore use of tumescent anesthesia often results in better surgical outcomes. Although the benefits of tumescent technique used in wide awake hand surgery are well documented, epinephrine at a concentration of 1:1 000,00 has also been used as a replacement for pneumatic tourniquet for release of hand contracture in infants and adults under general anesthesia. Thus epinephrine 1:1,000,00 in saline solution can be a potential replacement for a tourniquet in hand surgeries done under general anesthesia.
