The clinical effect of enhanced recovery after surgery to tibial plateau fractures patients applied arthroscopic minimally invasive treatment / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore and analyze the clinical effect of enhanced recovery after surgery to tibial plateau fractures patients applied arthroscopic minimally invasive treatment. Methods A total of 60 tibial plateau fractures patients were selected in our orthopedics department from January 2016 to July 2017 and who applied arthroscopic minimally invasive treatment, according to the last two-digit number of patient ID, divided them into observation group (n=30) and control group (n=30) randomly. The control group used regular perioperative strategies. The observation group used multidisciplinary cooperation fast track surgery idea, through preoperative assessment and education, nutrition and fasting, advance pre-rehabilitation and preventive analgesia; intraoperative optimization of anesthesia, body fluid management and body temperature control; postoperative nutritional support, multimodal analgesia, early ambulation and rehabilitation exercises, implied standardized and professional perioperative overall optimization management. The differences of the condition of 6 h, 12 h, 24 h after surgery, VAS score on discharge, time of first ambulation, active knee flexion 120°days; self-care ability at discharge and AKSS score one month after surgery between 2 groups were compared. Results The VAS scores 6 h, 12 h, 24 h after surgery and at discharge were 4.48 ± 1.18, 3.81 ± 1.68, 3.05 ± 1.63, 2.65 ± 1.65 in the observation group, and were 5.45±1.15, 4.15±1.05, 3.71±1.15, 3.23±1.68 in the control group. The differences were statistically significant (t=0.796~0.902 , P<0.05). The time of first ambulation, active knee flexion 120° days, self-care ability at discharge and AKSS scores one month after surgery were (5.61±1.4) hours, (4.01± 1.1) days, 80.22±3.6, 71.89±6.56 and 64.13±6.15 in the observation group, and (35.8±8.1) hours, (6.82± 1.6) days, 64.25±3.8, 63.45±8.36 and 60.95±8.98 in the control group. The differences were statistically significant (t=2.789~10.200, P<0.05). Conclusion Enhanced recovery after surgery to tibial plateau fractures patients applied arthroscopic minimally invasive treatment is worthy of being popularized as it’s beneficial to tibial plateau fractures patients. It can also fasten recovery and improve quality of life for postoperative patients.
