Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of different ultrasound-guided nerve blocks on the postoperative inflammatory and stress response in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA), providing a theoretical foundation for clinical application.
Methods: Elderly patients with THA who received ultrasound-guided nerve block combined with general anesthesia from June 2021 to June 2022 in the hospital were selected as a retrospective cohort study. Patients were divided into two groups based on the type of nerve block used. The observation group (n = 60) received ultrasound-guided pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block combined with femoral nerve block (FNB), while the control group (n = 60) received ultrasound-guided PENG block. The cortisol (Cor), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, and pain medication consumption in both groups were compared.
Results: The observation group demonstrated significantly lower serum levels of Cor, TNF-α, and IL-6 at postoperative 1 day, 3 days and 7 days, as well as lower soluble protein-100β (S100β) levels at postoperative 1 day compared to the control group (p < 0.001). The VAS score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group at postoperative 1 day, 3 days and 7 days (p < 0.001), with no significant difference in preoperative VAS score between the two groups (p > 0.05). Additionally, opioid consumption in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group at postoperative 48 h (p < 0.001).
Conclusions: The combination of ultrasound-guided PENG block and FNB effectively reduces postoperative pain and the inflammatory response in elderly patients undergoing THA, facilitating early recovery.
期刊介绍:
Annali Italiani di Chirurgia is a bimonthly journal and covers all aspects of surgery:elective, emergency and experimental surgery, as well as problems involving technology, teaching, organization and forensic medicine. The articles are published in Italian or English, though English is preferred because it facilitates the international diffusion of the journal (v.Guidelines for Authors and Norme per gli Autori). The articles published are divided into three main sections:editorials, original articles, and case reports and innovations.
