Avaliação da variação da temperatura cutânea, proteína C reativa e velocidade de hemossedimentação na artroplastia total do joelho primária, isenta de complicações

Abstract: OBJETIVO: Estudar a variação dos valores da temperatura cutânea (deltaT) do sítio operatório, da proteína C reativa (PCR) e da velocidade de hemossedimentação (VHS) em pacientes submetidos a artroplastia total do joelho (ATJ) primária, tentando estabelecer correlação entre suas curvas ao longo do tempo. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Esse estudo clínico prospectivo, avaliou 29 pacientes acompanhados por 12 semanas, sendo aferida a temperatura cutânea em ambos os joelhos e realizada dosagem sérica da PCR e VHS. RESULTADOS… Show more

“…C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) are evaluated in patients with suspected TKA infection. Carvalho Junior et al 28 demonstrated that CRP and ESR return to levels lower than the preoperative levels in 30 and 80 days, respectively, after non-complicated TKA. Piper et al 29 reported that the cutoff values for CRP and ESR were 14.5 mg/L and 19 mm/h, respectively, for diagnosing TKA infection.…”
