Perioperative oxidative stress predicts subsequent pain-related outcomes in the 6 months after total knee arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT:

Abstract

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is effective for pain reduction in most patients, but 15% or more report unsatisfactory long-term pain outcomes. We tested whether oxidative stress (OS) related to extended tourniquet application during TKA and subsequent ischemic reperfusion (IR) contributed to adverse post-TKA pain outcomes. Blood samples were obtained in 91 patients with osteoarthritis (63% female) undergoing TKA before tourniquet placement (T1), 45 minutes after tourniquet inflation (T2), and 15 minutes after tourniquet removal (T3). Plasma levels of F 2 -isoprostanes and isofurans, the most specific measures of in vivo OS, were quantified. Pain intensity and function were assessed at baseline and again at 6 weeks and 6 months after TKA. Results indicated that higher Combined OS (F 2 -isoprostanes + isofurans/2) at T1 baseline and larger increases in Combined OS from T1 to T2 were associated with higher baseline-corrected past 24-hour worst and average pain intensity (numeric rating scale) and higher past week McGill Pain Questionnaire-2 total scores at 6-month follow-up ( P 's < 0.05). Increases in Combined OS from T1 to T3, which should most directly capture OS and IR injury related to tourniquet use, were not associated with short-term or long-term post-TKA pain outcomes. Longer ischemia duration was unexpectedly associated with lower baseline-corrected pain intensity at 6-month follow-up. Combined OS was not linked to functional outcomes at either follow-up. Elevated perioperative OS seems to exert small but significant adverse effects on long-term post-TKA pain outcomes, although this OS seems unrelated to IR injury associated with extended tourniquet use.

Project description:AbstractLongitudinal total knee arthroplasty (TKA) studies indicate that a substantial percentage of patients continue to experience clinically significant pain and functional impairment after surgery. Insomnia has been associated with poorer surgical outcomes; however, previous work has largely focused on long-term postsurgical insomnia. This study builds on previous work by examining sleep and pain outcomes about perioperative insomnia trajectories. Insomnia symptoms (using the Insomnia Severity Index) during the acute perioperative period (2 weeks pre-TKA to 6 weeks post-TKA) were used to classify participants into perioperative insomnia trajectories: (1) No Insomnia (ISI < 8), (2) New Insomnia (baseline < 8; postoperative ≥ 8 or ≥6-point increase), (3) Improved Insomnia (baseline ≥ 8, postoperative < 8 or ≥6-point decrease), and (4) Persistent Insomnia (ISI ≥ 8). Insomnia, pain, and physical functioning were assessed in participants with knee osteoarthritis (n = 173; M age = 65 ± 8.3, 57.8% female) at 5 time points: 2 weeks pre-TKA, post-TKA: 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. Significant main effects were seen for insomnia trajectory and time, and trajectory-by-time interactions for postoperative insomnia, pain severity, and physical functioning ( P' s < 0.05). The Persistent Insomnia trajectory had the worst postoperative pain at all follow-ups and marked insomnia and physical functioning impairment post-TKA ( P' s < 0.05). The New Insomnia trajectory had notable long-term insomnia (6 weeks to 6 months) and acute (6 weeks) postoperative pain and physical functioning ( P' s < 0.05). Findings indicated a significant relationship between perioperative insomnia trajectory and postoperative outcomes. Results of this study suggest that targeting presurgical insomnia and preventing the development of acute postoperative insomnia may improve long-term postoperative outcomes, with an emphasis on persistent perioperative insomnia due to poorer associated outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundNon-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are recommended for multimodal postoperative pain management. We evaluated opioid-sparing effects and rehabilitative results after perioperative celecoxib administration for total knee arthroplasty.MethodsThis was a prospective, randomized, observer-blind control study. Eighty patients that underwent total knee arthroplasty were randomized into two groups of 40 each. The study group received a single 400 mg dose of celecoxib, one hour before surgery, and 200 mg of celecoxib every 12 hours for five days, along with patient-controlled analgesic (PCA) morphine. The control group received only PCA morphine for postoperative pain management. Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, active range of motion (ROM), total opioid use and postoperative nausea/vomiting were analyzed.ResultsGroups were comparable for age, pre-operative ROM, operation duration and intraoperative blood loss. Resting VAS pain scores improved significantly in the celecoxib group, compared with controls, at 48 hrs (2.13 +/- 1.68 vs. 3.43 +/- 1.50, p = 0.03) and 72 hrs (1.78 +/- 1.66 vs. 3.17 +/- 2.01, p = 0.02) after surgery. Active ROM also increased significantly in the patients that received celecoxib, especially in the first 72 hrs [40.8 degrees +/- 17.3 degrees vs. 25.8 degrees +/- 11.5 degrees , p = 0.01 (day 1); 60.7 degrees +/- 18.1 degrees vs. 45.0 degrees +/- 17.3 degrees , p = 0.004 (day 2); 77.7 degrees +/- 15.1 degrees vs. 64.3 degrees +/- 16.9 degrees , p = 0.004 (day 3)]. Opioid requirements decreased about 40% (p = 0.03) in the celecoxib group. Although patients suffering from post-operative nausea/vomiting decreased from 43% in control group to 28% in celecoxib group, this was not significant (p = 0.57). There were no differences in blood loss (intra- and postoperative) between the groups. Celecoxib resulted in no significant increase in the need for blood transfusions.ConclusionPerioperative celecoxib significantly improved postoperative resting pain scores at 48 and 72 hrs, opioid consumption, and active ROM in the first three days after total knee arthroplasty, without increasing the risks of bleeding.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov NCT00598234.
