In this study, we investigated the efficacy of patient-controlled regional analgesia for outpatients undergoing moderately painful orthopedic surgery shoulder. Preoperatively, patients (n = 20) received an interscalene nerve block and perineural catheter. Postoperatively, were discharged home with both oral opioids a portable infusion pump delivering either 0.2% ropivacaine or 0.9% saline, determined randomly in double-blinded manner. Daily end points included pain scores, opioid use side...

A continuous interscalene nerve block (CISB) may be used to provide analgesia after shoulder arthroplasty. Therefore, inpatient stays shortened if CISB (1) provides adequate without intravenous opioids and (2) improves mobilization. This study investigated the relationship between ambulatory time reach three discharge criteria arthroplasty.Preoperatively, patients received a CISB. All perineural 0.2% ropivacaine infusion from surgery until 06:00 following morning, at which they were randomly...

Nine humeral fractures occurred subsequent to 499 shoulder arthroplasties that had been performed between December 1978 and November 1987 at the Mayo Clinic. The time from arthroplasty fracture averaged thirty-nine months (range, eight 101 months). Seven patients were women two men, average age was seventy years forty-five eighty-five years). for rheumatoid arthritis in five sequelae of trauma four. Six advanced osteopenia, an ipsilateral total elbow arthroplasty. centered tip prosthesis;...

The experience of pain is believed to be influenced by social, cultural, environmental, psychological, and genetic factors. Despite this assertion, few studies have included clinically relevant phenotypes when investigating interactions among these variables. This study investigated whether psychological variables specific fear-avoidance models catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) genotype ratings for a cohort patients receiving operative treatment shoulder pain. Patients (n = 58) completed...

Background: This study quantifies the rate of improvement after anatomic and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty; a better understanding associated with each prosthesis type may establish patient expectations for recovery. Methods: Prospectively collected data on 1,183 patients who underwent either arthroplasty (n = 505) or 678) were collected. The Simple Shoulder Test (SST), University California at Los Angeles (UCLA) Shoulder, American Elbow Surgeons (ASES), Constant, Pain Disability Index...

This study analyzes the muscle moment arms of three different reverse shoulder design philosophies using a previously published method. Digital bone models were imported into 3D modeling software and markers placed for origin insertion relevant muscles. The anatomic model was used as baseline arm calculations. Subsequently, designs virtually implanted analyzed in abduction external rotation. results indicate that lateral offset between joint center axis humerus specific to one increased...
