The Effect of Air Tourniquet on Interleukin-6 Levels in Total Knee Arthroplasty

Abstract: Background:Air tourniquet-induced skeletal muscle injury increases the concentrations of some cytokines such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) in plasma. However, the effect of an air tourniquet on the IL-6 concentrations after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is unclear. We therefore investigated the impact of tourniquet-induced ischemia and reperfusion injury in TKA using the IL-6 level as an index.Methods:Ten patients with primary knee osteoarthrosis who underwent unilateral TKA without an air tourniquet were recruited … Show more

“…Thus, the systemic inflammatory response to the tourniquet at TKA depends on the first 24 hours after surgery. 7,9,11 In this study, higher D-Dimer levels were obtained at 12 hours postoperatively and proved to be significantly different as compared to D-Dimer levels at 24 hours postoperatively in patients undergoing primary TKA surgery.…”

“…The increase of both TLC and neutrophil is attributed to the effects of surgery and inflammation. Surgical stress increased TLC in humans [59,60]. Cortisol influences neutrophils by both increasing their release from bone marrow and decreasing their removal from the circulation.…”

“…Артеріальні турнікети широко використовуються як у військовій, так і в цивільній медицині (зокрема при пораненні кінцівок, артро-та ангіопластиках) [1][2][3]. Відновлення кровопостачання кінцівки після зняття турнікета може викликати ішемічнореперфузійні ураження як первинно ішемізованих тканин, так і у віддалених органах [4,5]. Низку наукових публікацій присвячено вивченню морфологічних змін м'яких тканин при ішемії-реперфузії [6][7][8].…”
