Background: Total hip arthroplasty involves replacing the hip joint with a prosthesis. This procedure aims to restore the function and relief in painful hip joint of patients with hip disorders who have failed in the nonoperative treatment (conservative). The surgery has dramatically improved the quality of life and independence of people who have disorders in the hip. With technological advances, new techniques and materials emerge and gradually improve the success of this intervention on quality of life of patients. Among the models used to perform total hip arthroplasty, one can cite the resurfacing method, suitable for young people and adults which uses a femoral head prosthesis on the surface for the preservation of the head and neck of the femur and a component of type acetabular prosthesis monoblock, similar to conventional total hip prosthesis Objective: To describe the quality of life and functionality of patients undergoing arthroplasty surgery Hip Resurfacing. Methods:We conducted a cross-sectional study of 30 patients hospitalized in the Hospital Estadual Mário Covas and undergoing surgery for total hip arthroplasty during the period 2008 to 2010. The patients were evaluated pre-surgery and at 12 and 48 months postoperatively by means of two questionnaires, the Harris Hip Score and SF-36. Results:The sample consisted of 30 individuals with an average age of 46.83. The findings were significant p <0.001 compared to pre Harris Hip Score (average 53.86 confidence interval 95% CI: 50.43 to 57.3) and postoperative (89.7 average confidence interval 95%, CI: 88.13 to 91.26), and found a higher score in the postoperative time. Moreover, a correlation between age and pain areas (r = -0.436 p <0.015) was observed and functional capacity (r = -0.46 p <0.009) SF36.
Introdução: o estudo da consolidação óssea e dos diversos fatores capazes de estimular o processo de reparo ósseo envolve muitas pesquisas na literatura. Objetivo: testar o efeito do Symphytum officinale na consolidação de fraturas de rádio e ulna em ratos. Método: os autores avaliaram 34 ratos da linhagem Wistar, nos quais foi realizada fratura manual dos ossos do antebraço direito sob anestesia. Os ratos foram divididos aleatoriamente em dois grupos. O grupo experimento recebeu duas gotas da substância Symphytum officinale e o grupo controle recebeu duas gotas de soro fisiológico 0,9%, administradas em ambos na frequência de três vezes ao dia pelo método da gavagem. Após o sacrifício, aos 14 e 28 dias de tratamento, foi realizada dissecção dos rádios e das ulnas. Os ossos foram radiografados e submetidos à leitura da densitometria óptica radiográfica. Resultados: foram observadas diferenças na formação do calo ósseo ulnar em relação ao radial, independentemente do grupo estudado na comparação entre o grupo controle e experimento. Conclusões: a formação do calo ósseo ulnar apresentou maior densidade óssea em relação ao calo radial, independentemente do grupo estudado, e a substância Symphytum officinale, em doses homeopáticas, não se mostrou estimulante da consolidação de fraturas em antebraços de ratos da raça Wistar.
