Filter by:Patients were randomly divided into two groups to receive either ultrasound-guided pericapsular nerve group block (PENG group) or fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB group), using 20 ml of 0.2% ropivacaine
It reduces pain scores in patients with block and improves the quality of recovery in the postoperative period. In patients who will undergo spinal anesthesia, it will be questioned whether the application of the block before or after surgery makes a difference in the quality of recovery.
Hip fractures are common in elderly patients, and require surgery. Many elderly patients take anticoagulants for vasculopathy treatment. Anticoagulation precludes the use of neuraxial anesthesia because of the risk of epidural bleeding. Caudal anesthesia may be a safe and effective technique in anticoagulated emergency surgical patients. Quantitative analysis of prospective clinical data. Evaluation of caudal anesthesia efficacy for hip fracture surgery. Analysis of perioperative outcome, and postoperative course.
Aim of the study was to assess whether preoperative echocardiography affects time to surgery, length of hospital stay and in hospital mortality in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. In the study entered two hundred fifty -five consecutive patients with hip fracture referred to a multidisciplinary hip fracture unit at a tertiary teaching hospital. Other 717 patients referred before implementation of routine echocardiographic examination were considered as control group. Echocardiography was performed in patients with systolic murmurs, unstable clinical conditions, recent decompensation of heart failure or hospital admission for coronary disease. Time to surgery, length of hospital stay (LOS) and in hospital mortality in patients underwent preoperative echocardiography (high risk group) were compared with patients who did not undergo echo (low-risk group ) and with an historical group.
This study was done to evaluate two different interventions for postoperative pain control in patients undergoing hip surgeries. Fifty patients, divided in two equal groups, were included in the study. Patients in Group P were given pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block while those in Group F were given fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB). Pain score, using Numeric Rating scale as a measurement tool, was assessed at one, six, eighteen and twenty fours after the procedure as a primary outcome. Total tramadol consumption in milligrams was recorded as a secondary outcome.
Present study aim to gain an understanding of functions needed and strategies used for patients following hip fracture surgery to be independent in basic mobility activities during acute hospitalization, and establish knowledge of how much (or little) patients get out of bed. Within the patients included in this cohort study (1), a subgroup will also be included in a satellite study (2), with a separate objective. Definitions are presented in the detailed description below (objectives 1-2).
Evaluated whether HA coated dynamic hip screws can improve fixation of the screw in trochanteric femoral fractures
The study is a single-centre, open-label randomized comparative trial. Adult patients admitted to the emergency department for a hip fracture will be enrolled. Pericapsular nerve block (PENG-block) is a regional anesthesia technique developed primarily as an analgesic technique in a perioperative setting during hip fractures related surgical procedures. Some authors propose the use of PENG-Block as an alternative to fascia iliaca block and femoral block for the analgesic management of hip fracture in the emergency department, but scientific evidence is weak in this setting. The hypothesis of this study is that the use of PENG Block in the emergency department provides a better pain management for patients suffering from hip fractures with less opioid use.
Femur intertrochanteric fractures (FITC) are one of the most common fractures of the lower extremity, caused by osteoporosis, caused by minor trauma in elderly patients. Today, it is successfully treated with proximal femoral nails (PFN) designed in different ways. After surgical fixation with PFN, patients are mobilized by placing full weight, but some complications can be seen due to the patients being osteoporotic. In this study, the investigators planned to investigate the effect of full weight bearing and partial weight bearing on complications, which were not previously described in the literature.
Postoperative analgesic treatment needs to be improved. Numerous studies suggest that a single dose of Methadone given during surgery significantly ameliorates postoperative pain and reduces postoperative opioid consumption. Perioperative methadone is already used in isolated cases such as patients with chronic pain or patients with high morphine tolerance. However, it is not routinely used in the elderly and fragile, and there is insufficient reliable evidence on this treatment and population. Further investigation is highly relevant and necessary.
