INTRODUCTION
A significant proportion of all red cell transfusions are given to patients undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery. Concern over transfusion safety and cost, coupled with evidence showing that restrictive transfusion policies benefit patients, prompted us to audit our blood prescribing practice at Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in order to assess the appropriateness of every transfusion episode following elective primary total hip replacement.METHODS
All patients undergoing a primary total hip replacement in our department over a six-month period were included in the study. Data were collected retrospectively using case note examination and transfusion service data. Standards were dictated by the British Orthopaedic Association guidelines on blood conservation in elective orthopaedic surgery.RESULTS
Twenty-seven per cent of patients (39/143) were transfused. Forty-six per cent of these (18/39) were transfused inappropriately and twenty-three per cent (9/39) appropriately. Thirteen per cent (5/39) had a valid indication for transfusion but were over-transfused and in eighteen per cent (7/39) the quality of documentation did not allow an assessment to be made. Fifty-two per cent of patients who had surgical drains (29/56) were transfused. Reaudit following staff education and amendments to the local transfusion policy did not demonstrate a reduction in transfusion rates.CONCLUSIONS
This audit showed that significant potential exists for reducing transfusion rates based on optimising prescribing practice alone. It also demonstrated that changing local practice based on audit data can be challenging. 相似文献2.
We have reviewed prospective data on 1016 patients who underwent unilateral total hip replacement to establish the pre-operative risk factors associated with peri-operative blood transfusion. Most patients who required transfusion were older and were of lower weight, height, pre-operative haemoglobin level and body mass index than patients who were not transfused. Multivariate analysis revealed that only the pre-operative haemoglobin level and the patients weight were identified as significant independent factors increasing the need for transfusion (p < 0.001). A haemoglobin level below 12 g/dl was associated with a threefold increase in transfusion requirement. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Total hip replacement is one of the most successful surgical procedures of the modern surgical era. The method of fixation of implants continues to evolve, and as cemented acetabular fixation appears to be less durable than anticipated, the use of a cemented stem and an uncemented acetabulum - a so-called 'hybrid hip'- has become more popular. This paper reports the results of hybrid total hip replacement at an average of 10 years postoperatively. METHODS: Primary hybrid total hip replacements carried out by a single surgeon in 1994 and 1995 were identified; patients were sent Oxford Hip Score and EuroQuol-5 Dimension quality-of-life questionnaires and, where necessary, a radiograph appointment. Questions about diabetes, cigarette smoking and hip dislocation were included. First postoperative and final radiographs were compared for stem subsidence, cup migration, stem position, osteolysis of the femur and pelvis, and evidence of loosening of both components. RESULTS: At 10-year follow up the revision rate for femoral component loosening was 2.9%. Fifteen per cent showed some abnormality at the femoral interface, not related to stem size and more common in titanium stems. Average hip score was 20.9, and quality-of-life measures indicated a high level of satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS: Hybrid total hip replacement gives excellent clinical outcomes with low revision rates for both components. The one-piece uncemented cup offers important advantages over modular devices, the use of which should be re-evaluated. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Several studies have shown that patients who undergo total hip replacement live longer than control subjects, but the reason for this apparent protective effect is not clear. The purpose of our investigation was to assess whether the association had the characteristics of a causal relationship or whether it might appear to be due to comorbidity or other factors. METHODS: We compared survival over a six-year period for 28,469 Medicare enrollees who had elective primary total hip replacement in 1996 and a control group from the general Medicare population, matched 5:1 on year of birth, sex, race, and whether the Medicaid program paid the Medicare premium (a proxy for low income). For both the patients treated with total hip replacement and the control subjects, we used Medicare hospital claims to ascertain comorbidity, that is, whether the patient had had any of sixteen serious discharge diagnoses in the year prior to the total hip replacement (or an equivalent date for the controls). The survival patterns for the total hip arthroplasty and control cohorts were compared with use of proportional hazards regression for three follow-up periods: the first ninety days after surgery (or an equivalent date for the controls), ninety days to five years after surgery, and more than five years after surgery. RESULTS: The total hip replacement cohort had less comorbidity than the controls, with an approximately 30% lower prevalence for most serious diseases. Sex, age, Medicaid eligibility, and earlier serious comorbid diagnoses were important predictors of survival, but, even in analyses that adjusted for these variables, the total hip replacement cohort had better long-term survival than the controls. The patients who had a total hip replacement had a higher rate of mortality than the controls immediately after surgery, but, by three months postoperatively, the mortality rate for the patients was well below that for the controls. The overall rate of survival during the first ninety days was comparable for the two groups. From three months to five years after surgery, the mortality rate for the patients who had a total hip replacement was only two-thirds of that for the controls. After five years, the mortality rates for the two groups appeared to be converging. CONCLUSIONS: Total hip replacement recipients survive longer than do matched controls in the Medicare population. The very rapid emergence of the lower mortality rate suggests that it is due to the selection of low-risk patients for elective surgery. However, our admittedly crude adjustment for comorbidity did not diminish the protective effect, so some effect of the procedure itself cannot be ruled out. 相似文献

Total hip replacement is an operation that is prone to thromboembolic complications, with potentially life-threatening consequences. However, the risk has declined substantially in the past three decades, reflecting advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology of thromboembolism and perioperative prophylaxis. The old concept of deciding thromboembolic prophylaxis after the completion of surgery is obsolete. In this review, we will concentrate on the main preventive measures that the medical and surgical team should implement prior to, during, and immediately after surgery. 相似文献

A prospective study of 34 patients undergoing total hip replacement was done to determine whether homologous erythrocyte transfusion causes postoperative immunosuppression. In the transfused patient group (14 patients), there was a reduction in CD3+ and CD3+4+ cell numbers at Day 2, returning to preoperative levels by Day 7. In contrast, in the untransfused patient group (20 patients), there was no significant depression in these lymphocyte subgroups at Day 2 and an increase in total lymphocyte, CD3+, CD3+4+, and CD3+4-8- cell numbers at Day 7. In both patient groups there was postoperative leukocytosis, granulocytosis, and monocytosis at Days 2 and 7, with no significant change in postoperative B (CD19+) cell numbers, natural killer cells, or the minor T cell populations of CD3+4+8+ and CD3+25+. The lymphocyte functional test of Candida recall was significantly impaired at Day 7 in the transfused patient group, where Candida recall is a memory T cell response to an antigen extracted from the yeast Candida Albicans. These findings suggest that homologous erythrocyte transfusion after hip replacement surgery causes cell mediated immune suppression. The main clinical implication of the current study is that perioperative homologous erythrocyte transfusion may place patients at greater risk of infectious complications, including infection of the prosthesis. 相似文献

Two cases of ileopectineal bursitis following total hip replacement are presented. Inflammation, infection and trauma are discussed as pathogenic factors. The results of fine needle biopsy, radiologic examination including CT and ultrasonography, as well as bacteriological cultures are described. The therapy was surgical in both cases. 相似文献

We report the imaging features of a 52-year-old man presenting with a groin mass and gross lower limb oedema secondary to venous occlusion by massive cystic enlargement of the iliopsoas bursa 4 years after uncemented primary total hip replacement. Ultrasonography of the groin mass demonstrated a large cystic lesion extending into the pelvis. CT showed displacement of the external iliac vessels with venous compression. Bursography showed the bursas margins and no communication with the hip joint. Diagnostic aspiration excluded infection, but fluid recollection occurred subsequently. Complete resolution of symptoms, including limb swelling, followed surgical excision with no recurrence at the 5-year follow-up. We believe iliopsoas bursitis occurred as a tissue response to polyethylene wear within the prosthetic hip and occurred even in the absence of loosening or a direct communication between bursa and joint. 相似文献

Efficacy of preoperative autologous blood donation: analysis of blood loss and transfusion practice in total hip replacement 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of allogeneic transfusion for total hip replacement (THR) surgery and to examine the efficacy of preoperative autologous blood donation (PABD) under specified, standardized blood transfusion guidelines. DESIGN: Prospective, nonrandomized study. SETTING: University medical center. PATIENTS: All ASA physical status I, II, III, and IV patients undergoing single, primary, THR surgery from April 1998 to March 1999. INTERVENTIONS: All patients received standardized transfusion and anticoagulation therapy. Demographic, blood loss, and transfusion data were collected and compared between all patients participating in PABD (donors) and patients not participating in PABD (nondonors). Overall allogeneic blood exposure was established. Since most anemic patients could not participate in PABD, allogeneic transfusion frequency was also examined in a subset of nonanemic patients (hemoglobin > or =12 g/dL) who were potentially able to participate in PABD. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: n = 231 patients, 142 donors and 89 nondonors. Mean estimated blood volume (EBV) of donors was 4991 +/- 1042 mL versus nondonors 4631 +/- 1108 mL (p < 0. 01). ASA physical status I-II/III-IV among donors was 118/24 versus nondonors 61/28 (p < 0.01). Overall allogeneic blood exposure was 22% (51/231). Allogeneic transfusion frequency for all donors was 15% (22/142) versus nondonors 33% (29/89) (p < 0.05). Among nonanemic patients, donor versus nondonor EBV and ASA physical status I-II/III-IV were 5074 +/- 1019 mL versus 4743 +/- 1172 mL and 107/20 versus 48/15 (p = NS); allogeneic transfusion frequency reduced to 13% (16/127) versus 17% (11/63) (p = NS), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Allogeneic blood exposure was >10% despite the use of PABD. The efficacy of PABD has been obscured by the fact that donors of autologous blood tend to be larger and healthier than nondonors. After exclusion of anemic patients, autologous donors and nondonors were clinically comparable and the difference in allogeneic blood exposure was not statistically significant. PABD offers only a modest, if any, benefit for THR surgery. 相似文献

Predictors for blood transfusion following total knee arthroplasty: a prospective randomised study 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A prospective randomised study was conducted on 121 patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty, to identify factors predicting the need for postoperative transfusion. Patients were additionally distributed into two groups, one of which received local adrenaline into the surgical field before wound closure, while the other served as control. A statistically significant correlation was noted between preoperative haemoglobin level, haematocrit and erythrocyte count and the need for transfusion; haemoglobin level emerged as the main predictor. No correlation was observed with patients' age, sex, body mass index, blood pressure or number of comorbidities. Local administration of adrenaline into the surgical field did not result in any reduction in blood loss, nor did it modify transfusion requirements. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To determine the possibility of avoiding homologous blood transfusion during total hip arthroplasty, and to clarify the problems associated with autologous blood transfusion. METHODS: A total of 253 patients received autologous blood transfusion during total hip arthroplasty between April 1990 and December 2000. Patients were assessed for the volume of haemorrhage during surgery, possibility of avoidance of homologous blood transfusion, and the disposal of autologous blood. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the mean volume of haemorrhage among different underlying diseases. The mean total volume of haemorrhage was 2039 (standard deviation, 992) ml in revision surgery and 1673 (717.3) ml in primary surgery (p<0.05). The rate of avoidance of homologous blood transfusion was 75% among patients who underwent primary surgery, and 61% among those who underwent revision surgery. The rate was 95% in cases in which a combination of preoperative blood pooling and intra-operative recovery was used, 49% in cases where the preoperative blood pooling system alone was used, and 42% in those in which the intra-operative recovery system alone was employed. The autologous blood had to be disposed of in 3 (1%) cases, all of which were revision procedures with replacement of the polyethylene liner alone. CONCLUSION: Combined use of the preoperative blood pooling and intra-operative recovery systems is effective for avoiding homologous blood transfusion. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to explore the increasing prevalence of factors affecting hospital charges for primary total hip replacement/total knee replacement (THR/TKR). This study analysed 37,918 THR and 76,727 TKR procedures performed in Taiwan from 1996 to 2004. Odds ratio (OR) and effect size (ES) were calculated to assess the relative change rate. Multiple regression models were employed to predict hospital charges. The following factors were associated with increased hospital charges: age younger than 65 years old; increased disease severity (Charlson comorbidity index [CCI] = 1 or > or = 2); absence of primary diagnoses of osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), avascular necrosis (AVN); treatment at a hospital or by a surgeon performing a high volume of operations; and longer average length of stay (ALOS). The Bureau of National Health Insurance (BNHI) should ensure that surgeons take precautionary measures to minimise complications and maximise quality of life after surgery. Use of joint prostheses from different manufacturers can reduce costs without compromising patient satisfaction. 相似文献
