Acute and Sub-acute Effects of Electrosurgery and Harmonic Devices on Sciatic Nerve Function and Structure
ثبت نشده
چکیده
INTRODUCTION: Ultrasonic energy surgical cutting devices are used to simultaneously cut and coagulate soft tissue and vessels. However, the extent of nerve damage that may result from their application in close proximity to a nerve is not clear. Hence, the purposes of this study were to determine the effects of ultrasonic (US) energy surgical cutting devices on sciatic nerve function when applied to adjacent muscle tissue and their comparison to effects from a monopolar electrosurgery device (MES) application during acute (3 hr) as well as sub-acute phases (7 days later).

Acute and subacute effects of the ultrasonic blade and electrosurgery on nerve physiology
Ultrasonic blades have been shown to cause less acute electrophysiological damage when applied near nerves than monopolar electrosurgery (ES). This study was performed to determine whether the acute nerve damage observed for ES, as well as the relative lack of damage observed for ultrasonic dissection, extends through a subacute timeframe. Muscle incisions were made in rat with the Harmonic(®) ...

Objective(s) The role of Elaeagnus angustifolia fruit as an analgesic agent in acute pain has been proved earlier. In this study, the effects of aqueous extracts of three parts of this fruit (pericarp, medulla and seed) on chronic pain were investigated in mice. Materials and Methods A partial nerve injury was made using a tight ligature around the sciatic nerve, then doses (0.5, 1, 1.5 g/kg...
متن کاملThe effect of ubiquinone on functional recovery and morphometric indices of sciatic nerve regeneration
A common cause of peripheral nerve injury is trauma. The positive effect of antioxidants on the improvement of nerve regeneration has currently become a focus of attention. In this experiment, the effect of intraperitoneal administration of ubiquinone (CoQ10) on an acute experimentally sciatic nerve crush was studied in a rat model. Forty-five male Wistar rats, weighing between 160-180 g were u...
