Filter by:Type of study: Observational study Goal of this : We conducted a retrospective evaluation of patients with HF who received postoperative ICU, with a focus on 30-day, 90-day and 1-year mortality outcomes. Participant population/health conditions:Patients over the age of 18 who are hospitalized in the intensive care unit of our hospital after hip fracture operation.
The aim of this study is to apply pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block or fascia iliaca plan block using ultrasonography to patients who will undergo hip fracture surgery, while giving sitting position before spinal anaesthesia and to reduce postoperative pain complaints. Thanks to these blocks, it is aimed to reduce pain complaints and the need for morphine-derived painkillers before and after surgery.
This was a prospective cohort study. The study was conducted in the two hospitals after approval by the KNH/UON ethical committee and the board of management of Kikuyu Mission Hospital. Trained data clerks were used for retrieval of data from the respective hospitals with follow-up conducted in the respective clinics and through phone calls. The clerks were not blinded to the study but every data was corroborated by interviewing the patients or their relatives and evaluation of medical data availed as well as clinical status. Both KNH and Kikuyu Mission Hospitals had handwritten patient notes/records at the time of the study (not electronic) with central registries for storage of patient files. The patients files and other medical documents will be available in the wards but upon discharge, stored at the central registries. The WOMAC scores(assessment of the outcome measures) were conducted by the principal investigator by direct interview of the patients/ their designated next of kin, or via telephone contacts. The outcome measures included pain, stiffness and activities of daily living.
Patients were randomly assigned to tow groups: infrainguinal ultrasound guided iliaca fascia block (FIBSI) and femoral nerve block (FNB) for FIBSI, the probe is placed transversely between anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and the pubic spine. The transducer is translated laterally to identify the Sartorius muscle. Cephalic inclination of the probe. The medial end of the transducer faces towards the umbilicus, which is the final position. The 100mm neurostimulation needle is advanced in the In Plan approach to pass through the iliac fascia. Once the correct position is confirmed, 30 ml of 1% Ropivacaine is gradually injected between the iliac fascia and the iliac muscle. For FNB, the probe was placed under the inguinal ligament. The femoral vessels and the nerve section are visualized; The 100mm neurostimulation needle is advanced in the In Plan approach and 30ml of 1% Ropivacaine has been injected along the nerve sheath
Spinal anesthesia (SA) is a widely accepted anesthetic technique for hip fracture repair among elderly. Positioning for SA can be extremely painful. Effective management of pain is important for these patients comfort. Fascia Iliaca block (FIB) and Femoral nerve blocks are commonly used for analgesia in hip fracture patients. However, they often provide a modest reduction in pain. The Percapsular Nerve Group block (PENG Block) has the advantage that it covers the accessory obturator nerve. Aim of the study: compare FIB with PENG prior to positioning hip fracture patients for standardized SA. In a prospective randomized double blind we included 80 patients aged more than 65 years old, for whom pain was felt when raising the affected limb to 15 degrees. Patients were assigned to receive either ultrasound guided Fascia Iliaca block or Percapsular Nerve Group block using 20 mL Lidocaine 1.5% in both groups. We compared pain on positioning for spinal anesthesia using Verbal Rating Scale (VRS 0 = no pain , VRS 1 = mild pain, t 2= severe pain) for both groups. We also recorded different times to perfom block.
Which technique is best for partial hip replacement?
The objectives of this study are to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of PLX-PAD intramuscular administration for the treatment of muscle injury following arthroplasty for HF.
165 patients admitted to two hospitals were included and short-time HRV measurements were obtained. Mortality data were gathered from the Norwegian central address register. Patients, close relatives of patients and in some cases their general physicians or nursery home physicians were interviewed six months postoperatively regarding the incidence of pneumonia, cardiac events or stroke.
This study will be done to evaluate the effect of load dose of vitamin D compared to the dose of usual clinical practice, in improving mobility and reducing disability in older people following a hip fracture.
Mechanisms by which to reduce exposure to allogeneic blood are of financial and clinical benefit in the hip fracture population. Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an inexpensive medication with low complication risk. Its use in the hip fracture population is unproven. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical tranexamic acid in reduction of peri-operative blood loss in hip fracture surgery.
