Randomized Control Trial Comparing Effects of Tourniquets on Neurology and Functional Outcomes after Total Knee Arthoplasty [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports
Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) often uses a tourniquet to enhance surgical visualization and reduce intraoperative blood loss. Despite its benefits, tourniquet use is associated with several complications such as skin blistering, nerve palsy,

Reduction of oxidative stress in total knee arthroplasty using tourniquet with a novel pharmaceutical combination [PDF]

SICOT-J
Introduction: Tourniquet use in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can cause ischaemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury via oxidative stress. This study evaluated whether combined administration of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and the iron-chelator ...

The Possible Pathophysiological Outcomes and Mechanisms of Tourniquet‐Induced Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury during Total Knee Arthroplasty

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2018
Ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury induced by tourniquet (TQ) application leads to the release of both oxygen free radicals and inflammatory cytokines.

Is lower tourniquet pressure during total knee arthroplasty effective? A prospective randomized controlled trial

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Higher tourniquet pressures may be associated with an increased risk of complications. We aimed to determine (1) whether a lower tourniquet pressure [systolic blood pressure (SBP) + 120 mmHg] is as effective as conventional tourniquet pressure

<title>Near-infrared spectroscopy study of tourniquet-induced forearm ischemia in patients with coronary artery disease</title> [PDF]

, 2001
Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) can be employed to monitor local changes in haemodynamics and oxygenation of human tissues. A preliminary study has been performed in order to evaluate the NIRS transmittance response to induced forearm ischaemia in ...
