Assessment of the level of satisfaction of patients submitted to latarjet surgery under outfit system compared to hospital system / Avaliação do grau de satisfação do paciente submetido à cirurgia de latarjet em regime ambulatorial em comparação com o regime hospitalar

ABSTRACT Anterior shoulder instability causes functional changes that affect patients' quality of life. The Latarjet procedure is one of the most frequently performed surgeries for cases of recurrent shoulder instability. Objective: To assess the level of satisfaction of patients who underwent the Latarjet procedure in outpatient settings (day hospital) compared with inpatient settings. Methods: A questionnaire was administered to both groups and a descriptive analysis of the results was performed. Results: 51 patients were included, with a mean age of 29.9 years, 82.3% men and 17.6% women. Of the patients who underwent surgery in the day hospital, 46.1% were operated within 100 days of their first outpatient visit; among those in the inpatient group, 76.3% underwent surgery more than 200 days later. Delays occurred in 15.3% of cases in the day hospital compared with 68.4% in the inpatient group. Of the patients in the day hospital, 92.3% felt comfortable contacting the medical team in case of complications and would perform the procedure again in the same setting. Moreover, 63.2% of inpatients would have preferred to have been discharged on the same day. The final satisfaction rate for both groups was 100%. Conclusion: Outpatient surgery guarantees more patient comfort, safety, and can be performed in a timely manner and with fewer delays, which has influenced patients' decision to have surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic. Level of Evidence V, Cross-sectional Study.

RESUMO A instabilidade anterior do ombro acarreta alterações funcionais que impactam a qualidade de vida do paciente. A cirurgia de Latarjet é um dos procedimentos mais executados para casos de instabilidade recorrente de ombro. Objetivo: Comparar o grau de satisfação dos pacientes submetidos ao procedimento de Latarjet no regime ambulatorial (hospital dia) com o dos operados no regime hospitalar. Métodos: Um questionário foi aplicado em ambos os grupos e uma análise descritiva dos resultados foi realizada. Resultados: Foram incluídos 51 pacientes, com idade média de 29,9 anos, sendo 82,3% homens e 17,6% mulheres. Dos submetidos à cirurgia no hospital dia, 46,1% operaram em até 100 dias depois do primeiro atendimento ambulatorial; já entre os do grupo hospitalar, 76,3% operaram mais de 200 dias depois. O atraso na cirurgia ocorreu com 15,3% dos pacientes do hospital dia contra 68,4% do grupo hospitalar. Do hospital dia, 92,3% pacientes sentiram-se confortáveis em contatar a equipe médica em caso de intercorrências e fariam novamente o procedimento de forma ambulatorial. Além disso, 63,2% dos internados gostariam de ter recebido alta no mesmo dia. O grau de satisfação final em ambos os grupos foi de 100%. Conclusão: A cirurgia ambulatorial garante mais conforto para o paciente, mostrando-se segura e podendo ser performada em tempo hábil e com menos atrasos, o que influenciou a decisão dos pacientes em operar durante a pandemia de COVID-19.

Inestabilidad de hombro en adolescentes: Indicaciones para cirugía. Reporte de caso y estado del arte / Shoulder instability in adolescents: Indications for surgery. Case report

La inestabilidad de hombro es una condición frecuente en personas involucradas en actividades deportivas de alta demanda física. Debido a sus particularidades anatómicas, los adolescentes presentan mayor riesgo de recidiva luego de un primer episodio de luxación de hombro. El sexo masculino, edad y participación en actividades deportivas de alto impacto son los principales factores de riesgo para recurrencia. En esta publicación, reportamos el caso de una adolescente porrista con inestabilidad anterior de hombro con evolución favorable luego de estabilización abierta complementado por una revisión del estado del arte de las aproximaciones terapéuticas de la inestabilidad recurrente de hombro en adolescentes.

Shoulder instability is a frequent condition in people involved in sport activities of high-physical demand. Due to their anatomical features, adolescents are at greater risk of recurrence after a first episode of shoulder dislocation. Male gender, age and participation in high-impact sport activities are the main risk factors for recurrence. We report the case of a cheerleader teenager with anterior shoulder instability with favorable evolution after open stabilization complemented by a review of the state of the art of the therapeutic approaches of recurrent shoulder instability in adolescents.

Morfología glenoidea en la artrosis glenohumeral primaria: factores preoperatorios relevantes / Glenoid morphology in primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis; preoperatory relevant elements

El objetivo primario de esta revisión es realizar una actualización de los conceptos básicos relacionados a los cambios morfológicos glenoideos durante la artrosis glenohumeral primaria, métodos de medición relevantes y describir las modificaciones en la nueva clasificación de Gilles Walch. La medición de esos parámetros influyen en forma directa tanto en el acto quirúrgico dentro una prótesis de hombro como en los resultados clínicos post operatorios. Los diferentes métodos de medición descritos en la literatura han permitido evaluar la magnitud de esos fenómenos morfológicos y describir la "glenoides bicóncava", caracterizada por presentar 3 subtipos: la paleoglena, neoglena y la glena intermedia. A partir de esos conceptos, Walch en 1999 describe la clasificación de los cambios morfológicos glenoideos en artrosis primaria, la cual ha presentado una reciente modificación debido a la mala concordancia intra e interobservador de esa medición obtenida por varios investigadores, además de reconocer una carencia en la precisión para describir cada subtipo. A la fecha, diferentes autores investigan la influencia de esos factores morfológicos preoperatorios en los resultados post operatorios, y hasta que valor límite podrían guiar un tratamiento especifico. Conclusión: Enfatizamos que un análisis acabado y minucioso de la morfología glenoidea es importante para una adecuada planificación quirúrgica en artroplastia de hombro, ya que eso puede guiarnos en cuál técnica o implante puede ser el más adecuado para cada tipo de glenoides.

The main purpose of this review is to up date the basic concepts regarding the glenoid morphological changes in primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis, relevant measuring methods, and a description of the modifications in the Gilles Walch classification. The measurement of these parameters influences both surgical indications for total shoulder arthroplasty and the post op clinical outcomes. The different measuring methods described in literature have allowed to evaluate the magnitude of these morphological phenomena describing the "biconcave glenoid", which characteristically presents 3 subtypes: paleoglenoid, neoglenoid and intermediate glenoid. Based on these concepts, Walch classified the glenoid morphological changes in primary ostheoarthritis in 1999, which has been recently modified due to the poor inter-observer and intra-observer reliability described by a vast number of researchers, and also because of an observed lack of precision when describing each sub-type. Up to date, different authors are debating the influence of these pre operative morphological factors on the post op outcomes; and the cut-off value up to which this could lead to a specific treatment. As a conclusion, we emphasize that a deep and thorough analysis of the glenoid morphology is important for an adequate surgical planning of a shoulder arthroplasty, as this can guide us to the most adequate technique and type of implant for each type of glenoid.

Clinical Observation on Effect of Prevention of Glenohumeral Subluxation with Electro-acupuncture Therapy in Super-early Period of Cerebral Stroke in 76 Cases / 国际中医中药杂志

Objective To observe the preventive effects of electroacupuncture therapy on glenohumeral subluxation(GHS)in patients of cerebral stroke of super-early period. Methods A total of 160 cases with cerebral stroke were randomly recruited into a control group of 80 cases and a treatment group of 80 cases. The control group was treated with conventional medicine and rehabilitation training, while the treatment group was given electro-acupuncture therapy based on conventional medicine and rehabilitation training. All treatments were performed once in each day, and one treatment course lasted for ten days. The preventive effect was evaluated after the successive three courses. Results 4 cases in treatment group and 2 cases in control group quitted in therapeutic process. The GHS incidence rate in the third course of treatment group was significantly lower than control group (P<0.05). The severe GHS incidence rate of treatment group was significantly lower than control group in the second course (P<0.05)and the third course (P<0.01). The GHS scale of the treatment group showed no significant difference in all three courses (P>0.05), while the control group showed significant difference in one course of all three(P<0.05). Conclusion Electro-acupuncture therapy can significantly decrease GHS incidence rate, relieve pathogenetic condition, control its progress, and so thus prevent GHS of stroke patients in super-early period.
