  • Comparison of Postoperative Analgesia between Ultrasound Guided Adductor Canal Block and Femoral Nerve Block in Patients after Total Knee Arthroplasty

    ObjectiveTo compare postoperative analgesic efficacy and motor function recovery between ultrasound guided adductor canal block (ACB) and Femoral nerve block (FNB) in patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). MethodsFrom March to April 2014, 40 patients chosen to receive TKA under general anesthesia were randomly allocated to FNB group and ACB group with 20 in each group. Opioids consumption during and after operation, pain score in rest and movement, the force of quadriceps femoris, activity of knee and complications after surgery were recorded. ResultsNo differences were found in opioids consumption during and after operation, pain score in rest and movement after operation. Patients of ACB group were superior to those of FNB group in motor function recovery. At hour 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 after operation, the force of quadriceps femoris was higher in patients of ACB group than those of FNB group (P<0.05). Activity of knee was higher in patients of ACB group than those of FNB group postoperatively. ConclusionACB and FNB have equal postoperative analgesic effect for TKA patients. But ACB has less influence on the force of quadriceps femoris than FNB. Therefore, patients of ACB group are superior to those of FNB group in motor function recovery, showing better activity of knee and early time of first straight leg raising.

  • Preoperative Application of Enteral Nutrition with Dietary Fiber in Colon Colostomy Diaplasis Patients: A Clinical Study

    Objective To investigate the influence of preoperative enteral nutrition with dietary fiber on the nutritional status of patients with colon colostomy diaplasis, and discuss its safety. Methods Forty preoperative colon colostomy diaplasis patients from West China Hospital treated between September 2013 and June 2014 were randomly assigned into trial group and control group with 20 in each. The baseline of the two groups was the same (all P > 0.05). The trial group was given enteral nutrition with dietary fiber before operation for seven days, while control group was given homogenate diet with equal quantity of energy and nitrogen content for the same period of time. All patients were being tested for nutritional indexes on the day of admission and on the fifth day after surgery. Meanwhile, other indexes such as the first time of flatus and defecation, abdominal distension, bellyache, and other adverse reactions were recorded too. Results There was no statistical difference in nutritional indexes on the day of admission and on the fifth day after surgery between two groups (P > 0.05). Patients with dietary fiber had significantly higher incidence of abdominal distension than the control subjects (P < 0.05), but other adverse reactions had no statistical differences between the two groups (P > 0.05). No anastomotic leakage occurred in both the two groups. Patients with dietary fiber had significantly earlier time of flatus than the control group (P < 0.05). Patients with dietary fiber had significantly lower incidence of diarrhea than the control subjects (P < 0.05). Conclusions The study suggests that it is safe and feasible to use enteral nutrition with dietary fiber for preoperative colon colostomy diaplasis patients. Using dietary fiber is helpful for intestinal function recovery and reduction of the occurrence of adverse reactions after surgery.

  • Research advancements of motor imagery for motor function recovery after stroke

    Neurological damage caused by stroke is one of the main causes of motor dysfunction in patients, which brings great spiritual and economic burdens for society and families. Motor imagery is an important assisting method for the rehabilitation of patients after stroke, which is easy to learn with low cost and has great significance in improving the motor function and the quality of patient's life. This paper mainly summarizes the positive effects of motor imagery on post-stroke rehabilitation, outlines the physiological performance and theoretical model of motor imagery, the influencing factors of motor imagery, the scoring criteria of motor imagery and analyzes the shortcomings such as the few kinds of experimental subject, the subjective evaluation method and the low resolution of the experimental equipment in the process of rehabilitation of motor function in post-stroke patients. It is hopeful that patients with stroke will be more scientifically and effectively using motor imagery therapy.

  • A comparative study of MAKO robotic arm assisted total hip arthroplasty and traditional total hip arthroplasty through posterolateral approach

    ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of total hip arthroplasty (THA) assisted by the MAKO robotic arm via posterolateral approach.MethodsThe clinical data of 70 patients treated with THA via posterolateral approach between March 2017 and March 2019 who met the selection criteria were retrospectively analyzed. According to different treatment methods, the patients were divided into two groups, 35 were treated with MAKO robotic arm assisted THA (MAKO group) and 35 with traditional THA (THA group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, body mass index, disease duration, etiology, perioperative time, preoperative activity of daily living (ADL) scale index, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification, walking ability, comorbidities, hemoglobin, and other general data between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, postoperative acetabular abduction and anteversion angles, postoperative length difference of bilateral lower limbs, and proportions of intraoperative blood transfusion, immediate postoperative loading, wound drainage time more than 2 days, and complications were recorded and compared between the two groups. According to the X-ray films at 6 months after operation, the reduction quality was judged. The forgotten joint score, Harris score, and proportions of independent walking and ADL index increased were used to evaluate the function recovery of patients.ResultsPatients in both groups were followed up 6-18 months, with an average of 8 months. There was no significant difference (P>0.05) between the two groups in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, acetabular abduction and anteversion angles, and length difference of both lower limbs at 6 months after operation. There was no significant difference in the proportions of intraoperative blood transfusion, immediate postoperative loading, and wound drainage time more than 2 days between the two group (P>0.05). X-ray reexamination at 6 months after operation showed that there was no significant difference in the reduction quality between the two groups (Z=4.191, P=0.123). Postoperative complications occurred in 7 patients (20.0%) in the MAKO group and 10 patients (28.6%) in the THA group, showing no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups (χ2=2.121, P=0.224). Two patients (5.7%) in the MAKO group and 4 patients (11.4%) in the THA group underwent revision within 6 months, showing no significant difference in the revision rate between the two groups (χ2=0.729, P=0.673). At 3 and 6 months after operation, the proportions of independent walking and ADL index increased showed no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Harris scores in both groups improved significantly when compared with preoperative scores (P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the forgotten joint scores and Harris scores between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionCompared with traditional THA, MAKO robotic arm assisted THA has longer operation time and more intraoperative blood loss, but it has the advantages of accurate positioning and simple operation, and there is no significant difference in short-term postoperative function recovery.

  • Clinical application of descending hilar plate technology in laparoscopic heminephrectomy for intrahepatic bile duct calculus

    ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical application effect of descending hilar plate technology in laparoscopic heminephrectomy for intrahepatic bile duct calculus.MethodsThe clinical data of 40 patients with intrahepatic bile duct calculus who underwent laparoscopic heminephrectomy in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were grouped according to different surgical procedures, 21 patients with Pringle method of total hepatic vascular exclusion were classified in the control group, and 19 patients with descending hilar plate technology of blood occlusion technology were classified in the observation group. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative hospital stays, liver function recovery, and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the intraoperative bleeding volume and operation time (P>0.05), but the postoperative hospital stays in the observation group shortened (P=0.025). The changes on the ALT, TB, and AST in the observation group was obvious than those of the control group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant incidence between the two groups in the total incidence of complications (P=0.128).ConclusionsCompared with Pringle method of total hepatic vascular exclusion, descending hilar plate technology in laparoscopic heminephrectomy can fully expose the Glisson pedicles of the left and right livers, and it is convenient to implement hemihepatic blood flow occlusion. It has less damage to healthy side of the liver and quicker liver function recovery, and it can reduce postoperative complications and shorten postoperative hospital stay.

  • Effect of gum chewing on the recovery of gastrointestinal function in patients undergoing gynecological surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis

    ObjectiveTo systematically review the effect and influence of gum chewing on the recovery of gastrointestinal function in gynecological patients after operation. MethodsEBSCO, MEDLINE, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials of gum chewing on gastrointestinal function recovery in patients after gynecological surgery from inception to September 30th, 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed risk bias of included studies. RevMan 5.3 software was then used to perform the meta-analysis. ResultsA total of 9 studies were included, involving 962 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that the time of first flatus (MD=–8.34, 95%CI –10.72 to –5.95, P<0.000 01), the time of first defecation (MD=–14.97, 95%CI –29.28 to –0.66, P<0.04), and the recovery time of bowel sounds (MD=–5.83, 95%CI –10.15 to –1.51, P=0.008) of gum chewing group was significantly shorter than that of the control group, and the incidence of abdominal distension was decreased after gynecological surgery (RR=0.24, 95%CI 0.08 to 0.74, P=0.01). According to the results of subgroup analysis, the time of first flatus of the gum chewing group was significantly shorter than that of the control group in laparoscopy (MD=–5.43, 95%CI –7.12 to –3.73, P<0.000 01), laparotomy (MD=–10.46, 95%CI –13.56 to –7.97, P<0.000 01) and abdominal surgery (MD=–10.64, 95%CI –13.01 to –8.26, P<0.000 01); the first defecation time after laparotomy (MD=–29.18, 95%CI –46.03 to –12.33, P=0.000 7), and abdominal surgery (MD=–14.24, 95%CI –24.27 to –4.21, P=0.005) in chewing gum group was significantly shorter than that in the control group; however, there was no significant difference in the laparoscopy group (MD=–2.97, 95%CI –12.94 to 7.00, P=0.56). ConclusionsThe systematic review and meta-analysis shows that gum chewing after gynecological surgery can shorten the time of first flatus, first defecation, and first bowel movement, and reduce the incidence of abdominal distension. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusions.
