INTRODUCTION Multimodal pain management has emerged as a critical approach in orthopedic surgery, offering comprehensive control by integrating pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods. This strategy addresses the limitations of single-agent approaches targets multiple pathways to optimize perioperative care. Regional anesthesia techniques, including nerve blocks continuous catheters, have become central multimodal protocols, enhancing relief while minimizing systemic side effects...
Objective: Endoleaks are critical complications of endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). This study sought to determine the frequency and nature intraoperative endoleaks their impact on postoperative endoleak-related events. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed all patients who underwent EVAR at our institution. The endoleak rates reintervention were assessed. Results: From December 18, 1996, May 21, 2003, 241 EVAR. An observed during 126 (52.3%) procedures....
There are five systems to stratify the risk for development of a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). This study aimed prospectively validate all them in same cohort participants allow their direct comparison.A retrospective was conducted on patients with diabetes but without an active DFU attending our podiatry section (n=364) from January 2008 December 2010. Participants' characteristics and variables composing stratification were assessed at baseline. Follow-up performed 1 year or until...
Determinar a frequência, taxa de sobrevivência e determinantes mortalidade em doentes amputados na nossa instituição. Foi feita análise retrospetiva dos processos clínicos eletrónicos 297 consecutivamente entre janeiro 2008 agosto 2009. As taxas eventos dependentes do tempo foram estimadas com recurso curvas Kaplan‐Meier as diferenças grupos investigadas pelo teste log rank. O impacto da idade foi estimado através um modelo regressão Cox. Um valor p < 0,05 considerado estatisticamente...
Os aneurismas da aorta abdominal (AAA) afetam cerca de 5% dos homens com mais 65 anos estimando‐se serem a décima causa morte nos países ocidentais. A cirurgia aberta (CA) ou sua exclusão endovascular (EVAR) estão indicadas para prevenir rotura em doentes AAA elevado diâmetro, evitando assim principal complicação. Um estudo detalhado que compare escolha entre CA e EVAR, bem como mortalidade intra‐hospitalar nas diferentes regiões Portugal continental, nunca foi realizado. Determinar i)...
Objective: To evaluate the association between 4G/5G polymorphism in promoter of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene and deep venous thrombosis (DVT) young people. Methods: Prevalence was investigated using DNA analysis a population 81 consecutive unrelated patients with an objectively documented first episode DVT under 40 years old control group 88 healthy subjects. Results: The frequency genotypes among 0.27 4G/4G, 0.49 0.23 5G/5G, corresponding to 0.52 for 4G allele. In results...
