Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to compare the equivalent analgesic efficacy of three regional anesthesia techniques in total knee replacement surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: • Non inferiority of each technique in relation to the others Participants will receive selective spinal anesthesia and the antalgic nerve block depending on the group they happen to be in. Researchers will compare the Femoral Nerve Group+IPACK block, the Saphenous Nerve block+IPACK and the Subsartorial Block groups to see if there is any difference in the pain control in the 24 hours after the surgery.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the frequency of ATTR amyloid, cardiac involvement and associated features, in 150 patients aged 50 or more years, and operated for an idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome, lumbar spine stenosis or total hip or knee arthroplasty for primary osteoarthritis. The main questions to be answered are: 1. What is the frequency of ATTR deposits in samples retrieved during surgery? 2. What is the frequency of cardiac involvement in ATTR positive patients? 3. What are the preoperative predictors of ATTR deposits? Participants will - have operative samples stained by Congo red in search of amyloid, which will be typed by immunochemistry in positive samples, - undergo a multimodal imaging search for cardiac involvement, if ATTR is identified, - undergo a preoperative complete clinical examination, including collection of medical history, ECG, biochemical tests, and imaging (ultrasound scans of rotator cuff and hip capsule in all participating patients, of the carpal tunnel in patients operated at this site, and MRI + standing profile radiography of the lumbar spine, in patients operated for lumbar stenosis) - ATTR positive patients will be proposed to be followed-up by a reference center, with the aim of an early diagnosis of cardiac involvement, allowing efficient mamagement. Researchers will assess the frequency of ATTR deposits at each operated site, the frequency or ATTR cardiopathy in ATTR + patients, and will compare demographic, clinical, biochemical, and imaging features in patients with and without ATTR deposits, to guide the indications of pathological examination during these frequent orthopedic surgeries
Total knee prosthesis (TKP); It is a surgical treatment used in the management of functional limitations and severe pain occurring on the degenerated joint surface as a result of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, posttraumatic arthritis and other nonspecific arthritis. Nursing care is of great importance in the success of TKP surgery. Reducing pain, preventing complications, increasing self-care ability, and improving the quality of life by improving postoperative knee functions are the main goals of postoperative nursing care. In order to achieve these goals, patients and their relatives need to receive training on home care in the post-operative period before discharge. With the increasing use of mobile technologies in daily life and the increasing adoption of e-health, the opportunity for people to improve their self-management skills through e-health is increasing. Mobile Health (m-Health) provides convenience in many areas such as educating the public, warning about potential diseases and disease risks, and communicating with messages, notifications and video when necessary. It also affects the way nursing services are delivered and provides great benefits in the delivery of nursing services. For all these reasons, it was aimed to examine the effect of mobile application-supported care given to patients with total knee prosthesis on functional status and self-care ability.
It will consist of a randomized clinical trial with a control group. The sample will be distributed as homogeneously as possible into two groups, which will be randomly divided into a control group, to which the usual general treatment will be applied, and an experimental group, which will be treated with the NESA XSignal device. During the procedure, the subjects will continue to receive the usual care routine.
