RESUMEN

Abstract Objective The present study describes the preferences and current practices of a sample of knee surgeons in Brazil regarding thromboprophylaxis in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Method In the present internet survey, surgeons from the Brazilian Knee Surgery Society (SBCJ, in the Portuguese acronym) voluntarily answered an anonymous questionnaire including time of personal surgical experience, perceptions about the best thromboprophylaxis options, and actual practices in their work environment. Results From December 2020 to January 2021, 243 participants answered the questionnaire. All, except for 3 (1.2%), reported using thromboprophylaxis, and most (76%) combined pharmacological and mechanical techniques. The most prescribed drug was enoxaparin (87%), which changed to rivaroxaban (65%) after discharge. The time of thromboprophylaxis initiation varied according to the length of training of the knee surgeon (p ≤ 0.03), and their preferences and practices differed according to the Brazilian region (p< 0.05) and the health system in which the surgeons work (public or private sector; p= 0.024). The option for mechanical thromboprophylaxis also depended on the training time of the surgeon. Conclusion Thromboprophylaxis preferences and practices in TKA are diverse across Brazilian regions and health systems (public or private sectors). Given the lack of a national clinical guideline, most orthopedists follow either their hospital guidelines or none. The mechanical prophylaxis method and the little use of aspirin are the points that most diverge from international guidelines and practices.


Resumo Objetivo Descrever as preferências e práticas atuais de uma amostra de cirurgiões de joelho do Brasil quanto à forma de tromboprofilaxia na artroplastia total do joelho (ATJ). Método presente pesquisa realizada pela internet, cirurgiões associados à Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia do Joelho (SBCJ) foram convidados a responder voluntariamente a um questionário anônimo incluindo o tempo de experiência cirúrgica pessoal, percepções sobre as melhores opções de tromboprofilaxia e as reais práticas no ambiente onde trabalham. Resultados Entre dezembro de 2020 e janeiro de 2021, 243 participantes responderam ao questionário completo. Exceto por 3 (1,2%) participantes, todos declararam praticar tromboprofilaxia, a maioria (76%) combinando as formas farmacológica e mecânica. A droga mais prescrita é a enoxaparina (87%), com modificação para rivaroxabana (65%) após a alta. O momento de início da tromboprofilaxia variou conforme o tempo de formação do cirurgião de joelho (p ≤ 0,03) e as preferências e práticas variaram conforme a região do país (p< 0,05) e o sistema de saúde no qual trabalham os cirurgiões (público ou privado; p= 0,024). A opção por tromboprofilaxia mecânica também dependeu do tempo de formação do cirurgião. Conclusão As preferências e práticas de tromboprofilaxia na ATJ são diversas nas regiões do Brasil e sistemas de saúde (público ou privado). Dada a inexistência de uma diretriz clínica nacional, a maior parte dos ortopedistas segue ou a diretriz de seu próprio hospital ou nenhuma. O método de profilaxia mecânica e a pouca utilização do ácido acetilsalicílico são os pontos que mais destoam das diretrizes e práticas internacionais.

RESUMEN

Objective: To investigate the effect of different use time of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) on the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremities after arthroplasty. Methods: Between October 2018 and February 2019, 94 patients who planned to undergo unilateral total hip or knee arthroplsty and met the selection criteria were randomly divided into a control group (47 cases) and a trial group (47 cases). There was no significant difference in gender, age, surgical site, and surgical reason between the two groups ( P>0.05). After returning to the ward, all patients were treated with IPC. And the IPC was used until 9:00 pm on the day after operation in the trial group and until 8:00 am the next day after operation in the control group. The levels of hemoglobin, platelet count, D-dimer, hospital stay, treatment costs, patients' satisfaction with IPC, the parameters of thromboelastrography [kinetics (K value), freezing angle (α angle), reaction time (R value), maximum amplitude (MA value)], visual analogue scale (VAS) score, circumference difference of calf before and after operation, Pittsburgh sleep assessment score, and the incidence of DVT of lower limbs were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results: The K value and D-dimer before operation were significant different between the two groups ( P0.05). There was no significant difference in pre- and post-operative VAS scores and post-operative circumference difference of calf between the two groups ( P>0.05). The sleep assessment score of the trial group at 1 day after operation was significant lower than that of the control group ( t=2.107, P=0.038). There was no significant difference in the hospital stay and treatment costs between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was 1 case (2.1%) of DVT, 3 cases (6.4%) of intermuscular venous thrombosis, and 1 case (2.1%) of infection in the trial group, and 2 cases (4.3%), 4 cases (8.5%), and 0 (0) in the control group. The differences were not significant ( P>0.05). After the completion of postoperative IPC treatment, the satisfaction rates of using IPC were 89.4%(42/47) in the trial group and 70.2% (33/47) in the control group, and the difference was not significant ( χ2=0.097, P=0.104). Conclusion: IPC using for a short period of time after arthroplasty do not increase the degrees of the pain and the swelling of calf; it can effectively prevent DVT of the lower extremity, improve the quality of sleep in patients, and is good for the limbs rehabilitation.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to adapt the standardized evidence-based nursing protocol using the IPC (intermittent pneumatic compression) intervention to prevent venous thromboembolism in surgical patients. Further, an investigation was done to measure knowledge on prevention of venous thromboembolism, surrogate incidence of venous thromboembolism and to assess IPC compliance in the study patients compared with those in surgical patients who underwent IPC intervention due to previous clinical experience. METHODS: An analysis was done of the nine modules suggested by National Evidence-based Healthcare Collaborating Agency (NECA) in the adaptation manual of the clinical practice guideline for protocol adaptation. A nonequivalent control group post test design as a quasi-experiment was used to verify the effect of the IPC protocol. RESULTS: There was a significant difference in knowledge of prevention of venous thromboembolism, IPC application time after intervention and the number of IPC applications between the experimental group (n=50) using the IPC nursing protocol and the control group (n=49). However, the symptoms of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism were not observed in either the experimental group or the control group after the intervention. CONCLUSION: Results confirm that the standardized IPC nursing protocol provides effective intervention to prevent venous thromboembolism in surgical patients.

RESUMEN

Venous thromboembolism includes deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. It is a more common and preventable complication in neurology. The prevention of venous thromboembolism is an important component in the treatment of the patients with cerebral hemorrhage. The measures include mechanical prevention and drug prevention. The mechanical prevention measures include intermittent pneumatic compression devices and pressure gradient elastic stockings. Studies have suggested that anticoagulants also plays an important role in the prevention of venous thromboembolism. The comprehensive and systematic understanding of the prevention of venous thromboembolism wil help to guide the clinical therapy and improve the outcomes of patients after primary intracerebral hemorrhage.

RESUMEN

Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) device has been used to prevent venous thromboembolism (VTE). This study investigated the effectiveness of IPC device. We evaluated incidences of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients after use of IPC device, and compared with historical incidences from our institution. We applied IPC device in 741 patients who underwent 870 elective primary THAs from January 2010 to December 2013, DVT was detected in 3 patients (0.3%) by sonography, and one (0.1%) of them was symptomatic. Symptomatic PE occurred in 1 patient (0.1%) and there were no cases of fatal PE. The incidence of symptomatic DVT was significantly lower than the historical control (P = 0.042). The IPC is a safe and effective prophylaxis of VTE after primary THA in Korea.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To investigate the incidence of thromboembolic events and complications related to bleeding after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with a mechanical compression device alone or in combination with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 489 TKA patients (776 knees) were retrospectively reviewed for the incidence of thromboembolic events and complications related to bleeding. While 233 patients (354 knees) were treated with a mechanical compressive device without LMWH, 256 patients (422 knees) were treated with the mechanical compressive device along with LMWH. RESULTS: The incidences of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) were 15 of 375 knees (4.0%) and 5 of 375 knees (1.3%), respectively, in the group that used only a mechanical compressive device, and 14 of 401 knees (3.4%) and 5 of 401 knees (1.2%), respectively, in the group that used the mechanical compressive device with LMWH. There was no significant difference between the two groups (p=0.125 and p=0.146, respectively). The postoperative hemovac drainage amount was 635±57 mL in the group with a mechanical compressive device only and 813±84 mL in the group with the device and LMWH; therefore, the amount of drainage was significantly greater in the latter group (p=0.013). CONCLUSIONS: Mechanical compression alone for prophylaxis against DVT and PE after TKA can be an attractive option in Korean patients.

RESUMEN

Introdução: Úlceras de origem venosas são lesóes cutâneas que geralmente acometem o terço inferior das pernas. O tratamento dessas feridas é dinâmico e depende da evolução das fases da reparação tecidual. Esse tratamento inclui métodos clínicos e cirúrgicos, sendo a terapia compressiva o método não cirúrgico mais frequentemente utilizado. Dentre as terapias compressivas, destacam-se as bandagens inelásticas e elásticas, meias elásticas e pressão pneumática intermitente. Objetivo: O presente estudo pretendeu identificar o perfil da produção científica nacional e internacional que descrevesse terapia compressiva e úlcera venosa classificando-o de acordo com: cronologia de publicação, procedência, periódicos em que estão publicadas, avaliação do "Qualis" - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (Capes), distribuição da abordagem metodológica, análise do conteúdo das publicaçóes e comparar, quando possível, os dados apresentados nessa revisão. Método: Estudo bibliométrico realizado nas bases de dados Medline, Lilacs e CINAHL no qual se utilizaram os descritores "Varicose Ulcer/therapy", "Compression Bandages", "Wound Healing" e o operador booleano AND entre os anos de 2009 a 2013. Resultados: Foram selecionados 47 artigos; a maioria publicada em 2012 (n = 12; 25,53%), nos Estados Unidos (n = 14; 29,78%) e Reino Unido (n = 14; 29,78%), em revistas de especialidade vascular (n = 19; 40,42%), com avaliaçóes A2 (n = 13; 27,65%) e B1 (n = 13; 27,65%). A maior parte da metodologia utilizada nos estudos selecionados era tipo "estudos clínicos" (n = 30; 63,82%). Dentre os estudos clínicos e metanálises, apenas 30% (n= 14) apresentavam como objetivo principal avaliação da terapia compressiva e pretenderam estudar comparativamente eficácia de bandagens elásticas, inelásticas, meias elásticas, pressão pneumática intermitente e ausência de terapia compressiva no tratamento de úlceras venosas. Conclusão: Há preocupação da comunidade científica com a busca do tratamento eficaz para as úlceras venosas, porém a distribuição mundial de publicaçóes é desigual. Evidenciou-se que a terapia compressiva não é o objeto principal na maioria dos trabalhos selecionados, o que leva ao interesse em terapias adjuvantes ou complementares a essa. Ficou evidente a necessidade da terapia compressiva, porém não há consenso sobre qual pressão deva ser utilizada para se obter melhores resultados na cicatrização; portanto, são necessários mais estudos que avaliem as interferências das diversas pressóes sobre o processo de reparo tecidual. Também há carência de estudos que comprovem a ação da pressão pneumática intermitente com associaçóes ou não de bandagens elásticas.

Introduction: Venous ulcers are skin lesions, which usually affect the lower third of the legs. The treatment of these wounds is dynamic and depends on the tissue repair process. Clinical and surgical procedures are included among those therapies, and the therapeutic compressive most often used non-surgical method. Inelastic and elastic bandages, elastic stockings and intermittent pneumatic pressure are the most common compressive therapy used. Objective: This study aimed to identify the national and international scientific literature profile describing compression therapy and venous ulcers and classify that profile according to: chronology of publication, country, periodicals that are published review of 'Qualis' - CAPES, distribution of the methodological approach, analysis of the publications content and compare, where possible, the data presented. Method: bibliometric study conducted in the Medline, Lilacs and CINAHL databases using the keywords "Varicose Ulcer / therapy", "Compression Bandages", "Wound Healing" and boleyn word AND between the years 2009-2013. Results: 47 articles were selected, the major part was published in 2012 (n = 12, 25.53 %), the United States (n = 14, 29.78 %) and the United Kingdom (n = 14, 29.78%), in vascular surgery specialized magazines (n = 19, 40.42%), Qualis A2 (n = 13, 27.65 %) and B1 (n = 13, 27.65 %). Much of the methodology used in the selected studies was "clinical studies" type (n = 30, 63.82 %). Only 30 % ( n = 14 ) had as main objective assessment of compressive therapy and intended study compared the effectiveness of elastic bandages, inelastic, elastic stockings , intermittent pneumatic pressure and absence compression therapy for the treatment of venous ulcers. Conclusions: There is a concern, in the scientific community, about the research for effective treatment for venous ulcers. However, the worldwide distribution of publications is uneven. It was evident that compression therapy is ...

RESUMEN

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices combined with anticoagulants for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after joint replacement surgery.Methods All of 400 patients were involved in this prospective randomized control study with 100 total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients and 100 total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients in each group.All patients were operated under the general anesthesia.Patients in the control group received 10 mg of rivaroxaban per day beginning 6-8 hours after the surgery.Besides the prescription of rivaroxaban, IPC devices were used just after the anesthesia in the operating theater and lasted for 48 hours in the experimental group.The diagnosis of DVT in the lower extremities was made by color Duplex sonography on the second postoperative day.The incidence rate of DVT and symptomatic pulmonary embolism was recorded.The incidence rates of total DVT, proximal DVT (p-DVT, proximal to the trifurcation of the popliteal vein), distal DVT (d-DVT, in the anterior tibial vein, posterior tibial vein or peroneal vein) and intermuscular DVT were recorded.CT pulmonary angiography was used to confirm the pulmonary embolism if it was suspected.Results The incidence rates of overall, proximal, distal and intermuscular DVT were 9.5%, 0.5%, 0.5%, 8.5% in the experimental group and 30%, 0.5%, 5.5%, 24% in the control group respectively.The incidence rates of total DVT, distal DVT and intermuscular DVT were significantly lower in the experimental group.The incidence rate of DVT in TKA patients and THA patients were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group respectively.For patients with DVT, enoxaparin was used instead of rivaroxaban, and DVT was found disappeared by color Duplex sonography 10-12 days postoperatively.Conclusion Compared with the use of rivaroxaban alone, IPC devices combined with anticoagulants can significantly reduce the incidence rate of distal DVT and intermuscular DVT in the early postoperative period after joint replacement surgery.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The purpose of this pilot study was to investigate the effects of mechanical interventions for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis in surgical intensive care unit (SICU) patients. METHODS: The participants were assigned to the intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) and graduated compression stocking (GCS) intervention. Patients who met the criteria were selected for comparison from our previous study. Data for 140 patients were included in the final analysis. RESULTS: The mean age was 57.5 (+/-15.7) and 61.4% were men. About forty-seven percent of the participants were 61 years or over. In the second duplex scan, 3, 2 and 1 critically ill patients developed deep vein thrombosis in the control, GCS, and IPC groups, respectively. Incidences of DVT were 6.0%, 5.0%, and 2.0% for the control, GCS, and IPC groups, respectively. This difference was not significant. Relative risks of no intervention were 3.0 and 1.2 compared with IPC and GCS application. There were no significantly different variables among the three groups before the intervention except for diagnosis on admission. CONCLUSION: Although it may difficult to conclude that mechanical prophylaxis effectively prevents DVT among SICU patients because there was no statistical significance in this study, but incidence rates among the three groups differed greatly. The findings reveal that further study should be conducted with larger samples and randomized controlled trial for SICU patients.

RESUMEN

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) represents one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in acutely ill medical patients. VTE prophylaxis can be assured by pharmacological strategies and, when contraindicated, by non pharmacological measures, such as early mobilization, graduated compression stockings (GCS), intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) or inferior vena caval filters. Literature evidence on non pharmacological VTE prophylaxis lacks and guidelines are not standardized for hospitalized ill medical patients. Much recently randomized clinical trials in patients with stroke and other medical diseases, seem to increase doubts and reduce certainties in this context. In this review we provide information about non pharmacological thromboprophylaxis in acutely hospitalized ill medical patients.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of intermittent pneumatic compression or sequential compression device in prevention of deep venous thrombosis in long-term bedridden patients.Methods We searched Pubmed (1996~),The Cochrane Library (1997~),CLNAHL (1980~),CNKI (1994~),EM-BASE,Science Direct,Oxford Journals,Wanfang Data(1998 ~),and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in which IPC or SCD was used as an intervention to prevent DVT,and all the trials were published in English or Chinese.The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed according to the standard of Cochrane systematic review.RevMan 5.0 software was used for Meta-analysis.Results Seven RCTs were included.The results of Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of DVT in the IPC or SCD group was lower than that in the control group.Conclusions IPC or SCD shows an effective tendency in DVT prevention,but because of the low quality and the small sample of the included studies,this conclusion needs to be verified by protocols of more samples and higher quality.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: There are few comparative studies about the optimal method of pneumatic compression to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The aim of this prospective randomized study was to compare venous hemodynamic changes and their clinical influences between two graded sequential compression groups (an alternate sequential compression device [ASCD] vs. a simultaneous sequential compression device [SSCD]). METHODS: In total, 34 patients (68 limbs) undergoing knee and spine operations were prospectively randomized into two device groups (ASCD vs. SSCD groups). Duplex ultrasonography examinations were performed on the 4th and 7th postoperative days for the detection of DVT and the evaluation of venous hemodynamics. Continuous data for the two groups were analyzed using a two-tailed, unpaired t-test. Relative frequencies of unpaired samples were compared using Fisher exact test. Mixed effects models that might be viewed as ANCOVA models were also considered. RESULTS: DVT developed in 7 patients (20.6%), all of whom were asymptomatic for isolated calf DVTs. Two of these patients were from the ASCD group (11.8%) and the other five were from the SSCD group (29.4%), but there was no significant difference (p = 0.331). Baseline peak velocity, mean velocity, peak volume flow, and total volume flow were enhanced significantly in both device groups (p < 0.001). However, the degrees of flow and velocity enhancement did not differ significantly between the groups. The accumulated expelled volumes for an hour were in favor of the ASCD group. CONCLUSIONS: Both graded sequential compression devices showed similar results both in clinical and physiological efficacies. Further studies are required to investigate the optimal intermittent pneumatic compression method for enhanced hemodynamic efficacy and better thromboprophylaxis.

RESUMEN

Objective To study the effect of intraoperative intermittent pneumatic compression(IPC)on patients undergoing gynaecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods Two hundred infertile patients to undergo exploratory laparotomy were randomized equally into the observation group and the control group.The patients in both groups were managed with laparoscopic operation at lithotomy position under general anaesthesia.During the operation,the control group was treated with nil intervention,while the observation group with IPC.The two groups were compared in terms of blood coagulation indexes before operation,days 1 and 3 after operation,blood flow rate of femoral vein before operation,30 mins and day 1 after the operation,and deep vein thrombosis(DVT) three months after operation.Results Three months after operation,12 cases of DVT occurred in the control group,and only 2 cases in the observation group.The difference was significant between the groups(χ2=6.22,P0.05).Conclusion IPC used during laparoscopic surgery may be safe and effective as a result of improving blood circulation of lower limbs and preventing venothrombosis in lower limbs.

RESUMEN

Intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) device is an effective method to prevent deep vein thrombosis. This method has been known to be safe with very low rate of complications compared to medical thromboprophylaxis. Therefore, this modality has been used widely in patients who underwent a hip fracture surgery. We report a patient who developed extensive bullae, a potentially serious skin complication, beneath the leg sleeves during the use of IPC device after hip fracture surgery.

RESUMEN

Intermittent pneumatic compression device is a standard component for prevention of deep venous thrombosis in immobile patients. This method has been known to be safe with very low rate of complications compared to medical thromboprophylaxis. Therefore, this modality has been used widely in patients who underwent a general surgery. We report a patient who developed common peroneal nerve palsy during the use of intermittent pneumatic compression device after Hartmann's operation.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that intermittent pneumatic compression device (IPCD) compression system might induce more decreases on the core temperature by increasing the lower extremity blood flow. This study investigated the effects of IPCD compression system on the body temperature in patients undergoing minor surgery under propofol-remifentanil anesthesia. METHODS: Forty female patients were randomly assigned to treat with either elastic stockings (ES group, n = 20) or IPCD (IPCD group, n = 20). Anesthesia was induced and maintained with propofol and remifentanil. The core temperature and arteriovenous shunt in the lower leg were measured using esophageal temperature and the calf to toe skin-surface temperature gradient, respectively. The measurements were taken at 15-minute intervals immediately after anesthesia induction (baseline values, T0) until the end of the surgery. RESULTS: During the study period, the core temperature and skin temperature gradient were comparable between the two groups. The core temperature decreased from 60 min in both groups. And, skin-surface temperature gradient decreased from 15 min in the IPCD group and 30 min in the ES group after anesthesia induction, without intergroup differences across time. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that the IPCD system did not affect the change in the core temperature when compared to the ES, in patients undergoing minor surgery during propofolremifentanil anesthesia. Thus, the IPCD system could be safely used during propofol-remifentanil anesthesia, without increasing the risk of the intraoperative hypothermia.
