- HALLUX RIGIDUS: PROSPECTIVE STUDY OF JOINT REPLACEMENT WITH HEMIARTHROPLASTY(2013) SANTOS, Alexandre Leme Godoy dos; DUARTE, Fernando Aires; SEITO, Carlos Augusto Itiu; ORTIZ, Rafael Trevisan; SAKAKI, Marcos Hideyo; FERNANDES, Tulio DinizObjective: To report the results of medium-term follow-up after deploying Arthrosurface-HemiCap (R) in patients with diagnosis of Hallux Rigidus (HR). Method: Eleven patients underwent partial Arthroplasty of the first metatarsal-phalangeal joint. Six women and five men with an average age 51.9 years (46 to 58 years) and average postoperative follow-up of 3.73 years (3-4 years); were classified through the Kravitz system and evaluated by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scales for hallux, Visual Analogical Scale (VAS) - analog functional pain - and range of motion in the first metatarsal joint in preoperative, postoperative after six months and present post-operative. Results: The results show significant improvement of the three analyzed parameters, both for overall analysis and for pre and post-operative comparisons individually. The comparative analysis of each variable in the six months and the current postoperative periods do not show statistically significant differences, indicating maintenance of parameters during this interval. Conclusion: hemiarthroplasty of first metatarsophalangeal joint is a reproducible and safe option for the surgical treatment of hallux rigidus II and III, with significant improvement of the evaluated parameters for the studied population.
- Positive fluid balance is associated with reduced survival in critically ill patients with cancer(2012) ALMEIDA, J. P. de; PALOMBA, H.; GALAS, F. R. B. G.; FUKUSHIMA, J. T.; DUARTE, F. A.; NAGAOKA, D.; TORRES, V.; YU, L.; VINCENT, J. -L.; AULER JR., J. O. C.; HAJJAR, L. A.Background There are no studies that describe the impact of the cumulative fluid balance on the outcomes of cancer patients admitted to intensive care units ICUs. The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between fluid balance and clinical outcomes in these patients. Method One hundred twenty-two cancer patients were prospectively evaluated for survival during a 30-day period. Univariate (Chi-square, t-test, MannWhitney) and multiple logistic regression analyses were used to identify the admission parameters associated with mortality. Results The mean cumulative fluid balance was significantly higher in non-survivors than in survivors [1675?ml/24?h (4712921) vs. 887?ml/24?h (104557), P?=?0.017]. We used the area under the curve and the intersection of the sensibility and specificity curves to define a cumulative fluid balance value of 1100?ml/24?h. This value was used in the univariate model. In the multivariate model, the following variables were significantly associated with mortality in cancer patients: the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score at admission [Odds ratio (OR) 1.15; 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.051.26), P?=?0.003], the Lung Injury Score at admission [OR 2.23; 95% CI (1.293.87), P?=?0.004] and a positive fluid balance higher than 1100?ml/24?h at ICU [OR 5.14; 95% CI (1.4518.24), P?=?0.011]. Conclusion A cumulative positive fluid balance higher than 1100?ml/24?h was independently associated with mortality in patients with cancer. These findings highlight the importance of improving the evaluation of these patients' volemic state and indicate that defined goals should be used to guide fluid therapy.
- SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY IN OSTEOARTHRITIS: CORRELATION BETWEEN FUNCTION AND RADIOGRAPHIC PARAMETERS(2013) GRACITELLI, Mauro Emilio Conforto; DUARTE, Fernando Aires; TOFFOLI, Rogerio Padovani; BURNATO, Joao Henrique; MALAVOLTA, Eduardo Angeli; FERREIRA NETO, Arnaldo AmadoObjectives: To evaluate the correlation between radiographic parameters and functional assessments of patients with osteoarthritis of the shoulder who underwent shoulder arthroplasty and to describe the functional outcomes of this procedure in our institution. Methods: We evaluated 21 patients (22 shoulders) who underwent shoulder arthroplasty between 1998 and 2010 and with a minimum follow-up of 12 months. Clinical evaluation was performed using the Constant-Murley scale, UCLA, EVA and by measuring the active motion. We analysed preoperative (distance between the top of the head and the humerus and the acromion, superior migration, neck angulation, medial ""offset"", subluxation, glenoid erosion) and postoperative radiographic parameters (rod inclination, migration of components and loosening). Results: Patients showed significant improvement in all parameters: flexion (p = 0.0083), abduction (p = 0.0266), external rotation (p = 0.0062), Constant-Murley (p = 0.0001), UCLA (p < 0.0001) and VAS (p = 0.0002). The superior migration of the humerus showed a significant correlation with UCLA and Constant-Murley scores (p = 0.0480 and p = 0.0110, respectively). The other radiographic parameters showed no correlation with the clinical outcomes. Conclusion: The superior migration of the humerus is related to worse clinical scores.
