Thigh tourniquet is commonly used in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) but may contribute to pain and muscle damage. Consequently, the reduction in knee-extension strength after TKA may be caused by quadriceps muscle ischaemia underneath the cuff.To examine if not using a thigh tourniquet during surgery was more effective than using a thigh tourniquet in preserving knee-extension strength 48h after fast-track...
BackgroundElective knee and hip arthroplasty are common surgical procedures. Improved anaesthetic and nutritional care has the potential of increasing patient satisfaction and reducing length of hospital stay (LOS). The overall aim of this thesis was to evaluate the effect of perioperative nutrition and different anaesthetic techniques on per‐ and postoperative outcome after elective total hip arthroplasty...
A concern that arises with any change in technique is whether it affects the long-term implant stability. The objective of this study was to evaluate the early migration, measured by radiostereometric analysis (RSA), and the functional outcome of the Triathlon™ cemented knee prosthesis, operated on with or without a tourniquet. During the last decades RSA has emerged as a way to assess prosthetic...
