The Choice Study, Cervical Ripening In-Hospital and At-Home: Qualitative Findings and Implications for Practice
Authors: Harkness Dr Mairi , Yuill Dr Cassandra , McCourt Christine , Cheyn Professor Helen
Published: January 2024

Cervical ripening (CR) is recommended as the first stage of induction of labour (IOL) in most circumstances.1 The procedure involves application of an agent, either pharmaceutical such as Prostin, or mechanical, including balloon catheter or osmotic dilator, with the aim of softening and shortening the cervix in preparation for labour. Traditionally, CR has taken place in hospital. However, some UK maternity units now offer the opportunity to return home for a period after application of the cervical ripening agent, referred to as home CR.

Published: January 2024

Talasemia adalah sekelompok gangguan darah genetik yang memengaruhi produksi hemoglobin, protein yang mengangkut oksigen dalam darah. Penderita Talasemia mengalami gangguan dalam produksi hemoglobin, yang menyebabkan anemia kronis. Talasemia adalah kondisi yang diwariskan, dan jika kedua orangtua adalah pembawa gen Talasemia, maka ada risiko bahwa anak yang dikandung dapat mewarisi penyakit ini. Selama kehamilan, Talasemia dapat menghadirkan tantangan khusus. Wanita hamil dengan Talasemia mungkin mengalami anemia yang semakin parah, kelelahan, dan gejala terkait lainnya. Ini dapat memengaruhi kesehatan ibu dan perkembangan janin. Oleh karena itu, pemantauan medis yang cermat sangat penting selama kehamilan. Wanita dengan Talasemia mungkin memerlukan transfusi darah dan suplemen zat besi sesuai kebutuhan untuk menjaga kadar hemoglobin dalam batas normal selama kehamilan. Kerja sama yang erat dengan tenaga medis adalah kunci untuk mengelola Talasemia dengan baik dan meminimalkan risiko komplikasi.
Penting juga untuk menjalani konseling genetik sebelum merencanakan kehamilan agar Anda dapat memahami risiko yang terkait dengan penyakit ini dan membuat keputusan yang tepat terkait perencanaan keluarga. Dengan perawatan medis yang tepat dan manajemen prenatal yang sesuai, wanita dengan Talasemia dapat menjalani kehamilan yang sehat dan melahirkan bayi yang sehat. Pemeriksaan medis secara teratur, suplemen yang sesuai, dan kepatuhan terhadap nasihat medis sangat penting untuk memastikan keberhasilan kehamilan dan kesejahteraan ibu dan anak.
Anemia pada Penyakit Ginjal Kronik
Authors: Ayunina Rizky Ferdina
Published: January 2024

Penyakit Ginjal Kronik (PGK) termasuk penyakit tidak menular dengan tren prevalensi yang meningkat di berbagai negara termasuk Indonesia. Fungsi ginjal sendiri cukup beragam, tidak hanya untuk menyaring darah. Salah satu fungsi ginjal lainnya ialah menghasilkan hormon eritropoietin, yang bertugas untuk memicu eritropoiesis atau pembentukan sel darah merah. Oleh karena itu, pasien PGK rentan mengalami anemia karena kapasitas ginjal untuk menghasilkan hormon tersebut berkurang. Kondisi anemia pada PGK atau anemia renal turut berpengaruh pada kualitas maupun harapan hidup pasiennya. Data epidemiologi menunjukkan bahwa anemia merupakan faktor risiko independen terhadap kematian pada PGK. Di Indonesia sendiri hampir 80% pasien hemodialisis kadar hemoglobinnya bahkan tidak mencapai 10 g/dL. Walaupun defisiensi eritropoietin menjadi patofisiologi mendasar pada anemia renal, masih ada hal-hal lain yang bisa memicu anemia pada PGK. Alur tata laksana anemia renal pun tidak serta merta dengan pemberian agen pemicu eritropoiesis. Ada serangkaian pemeriksaan yang diperlukan untuk menentukan langkah-langkah terapi anemia renal. Salah satunya adalah memastikan bahwa pasien tidak mengalami defisiensi besi baik secara absolut maupun fungsional. Setiap pilihan terapi untuk penanganan anemia renal memiliki risiko tersendiri. Ada juga terapi inovatif yang baru dikembangkan berupa HIF-stabilizer yang bekerja dengan menstimulasi ginjal untuk meningkatkan produksi eritropoietin walaupun pada fungsi ginjal yang menurun.
Menuju Zero Anemia di Indonesia
Authors: Diani Mentari
Published: January 2024

Kasus Anemia di Indonesia masih cukup tinggi, hal ini dikarenakan kompleksitas penyebab terjadinya Anemia. Keberagaman kondisi sosial-ekonomi Masyarakat di Indonesia, tingkat pendidikan, serta jenis pekerjaan, akan sangat berpengaruh terhadap prevalensi kejadian anemia. Selain itu kelainan genetik, penyakit keganasan dan kronis juga dapat memicu terjadinya Anemia. Masyarakat yang mengalami Anemia, seringkali harus mendapatkan pengobatan berkelanjutan. Hal ini akan berpengaruh terhadap kondisi psikis, fisik bahkan ekonomi keluarga. Peran pemerintah dalam mengatasi kasus anemia sangat penting, melalui beberapa regulasi yang dikeluarkan, nampak adanya stadarisasi Tata Laksana pengobatan Anemia. Selain itu, dukungan pemerintah juga diberikan melalui subsidi skrining dan pengobatan pada Anemia. Peningkatan fasilitas pelayanan Kesehatan diberbagai daerah juga menjadi fokus pemerintah untuk dapat meningkatkan kesehatan dan kesajahteran guna pencapaian tujuan SDGs. Namun pencegahan anemia merupakan langkah terbaik dibandingkan dengan pengobatan, sehingga kesadaran Masyarakat terhadap kasus Anemia harus diperhatikan. Edukasi mengenai pola hidup sehat, higenitas dan skrining Premarital harus terus digemakan agar Masyarakat dapat mengambil peran untuk mencegah kasus Anemia.Saat ini, pengobatan anemia yang diberikan juga sangat bervariasi tergantung dengan derajad keparahan penderita Anemia. Upaya pengobatan yang dapat dilakukan pada kasus Anemia akibat kelainan genetik adalah terapi sel. Regulasi terkait terapi sel sudah ada, Namun masih perlu adanya kolaborasi dari berbagai pihak untuk mengembangkan terapi tersebut. Jika semua usaha penanganan anemia telah dilakukan dengan baik, zero anemia di Indonesia bukan lagi menjadi sebuah wacana.

Authors: Titik Kuntari  , Sri Supadmi  , Sidiq Purwoko
Published: January 2024

Tingginya kasus pernikahan usia muda di negara miskin/berkembang berdampak pada meningkatnya kehamilan usia muda. Data WHO menunjukkan bahwa pada tahun 2019 terjadi sekitar 21 juta kehamilan pada remaja usia 15–19 tahun, 50% di antaranya merupakan kehamilan yang tidak diinginkan. Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas) tahun 2018 menunjukkan sekitar 58,8% perempuan usia remaja (10–19 tahun) Indonesia pernah hamil. Anemia pada kehamilan ibu usia muda perlu mendapatkan perhatian serius karena dampaknya terhadap ibu dan anak. Hasil Riskesdas juga menyatakan anemia dialami oleh 48,9% ibu hamil di Indonesia, dengan kejadian terbanyak pada usia 15–24 tahun. Anemia pada kehamilan meningkatkan risiko persalinan tak maju, atonia uteri, perdarahan, infeksi, dan kematian ibu. Ini juga meningkatkan risiko bayi mengalami kelahiran prematur, berat badan lahir rendah, stunting, dan juga gangguan kognitif. Antenatal care (ANC) merupakan salah satu upaya untuk menurunkan risiko tersebut. Permasalahan ANC di Indonesia antara lain terkait dengan waktu kunjungan pertama (K1) dan frekuensi kunjungan selama kehamilan. Ibu hamil dengan K1 di atas trimester satu memiliki risiko 12,8 kali lebih tinggi dibandingkan yang melakukan dalam trimester satu. Ibu dengan ANC lengkap (< 4 kali) memiliki risiko 8,6 kali lebih tinggi dibandingkan mereka dengan ANC lengkap (> 4 kali). Pemeriksaan fisik dan labosratorik pada saat K1, memungkinkan adanya skrining, dan deteksi dini. Keteraturan ANC disertai pemberian tablet tambah darah dan makanan tambahan sebagai tindak lanjuit diharapkan dapat mengatasi anemia dan mencegah komplikasinya. Upaya edukasi tentang pentingnya kunjungan awal dan frekuensi ANC perlu terus dilakukan, tidak hanya kepada ibu hamil tetapi juga melibatkan keluarga.

Published: January 2024

Animal welfare is one of society's top priorities nowadays; hence, pets have been considered part of every family's household. Pet safety and its condition are frequently monitored, and many innovative inventions are being created. A Peltier module, commonly known as a thermoelectric cooler, is widely used in cooling modules. A thermoelectric cooler is used to produce cold air to give comfort to their cages. Installing a cooling system with a control system creates cool air inside the cell with a fan. The temperature inside the cage can be manually controlled depending on the desired temperature, between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius. Using t-test analysis, the results show that the thermal reading of the developed device is accurate and the system is fully operational. However, outdoors may affect the task; the Peltier may produce less coldness and vary according to the kennel cage design and size.

Thyroid gland dysfunction in heart rhythm disorders
Authors: Majer Dominika , Warwas Szymon , Pabis Patrycja , Mazurek Michał , Średniawa Beata , Jędrzejczyk-Patej Ewa
Published: January 2024

Thyroid gland dysfunction is estimated to occur in approximately 5% of the population and affects people of different ages. Cardiovascular diseases can occur in diseases such as hyperthyroidism as well as hypothyroidism. Increased thyroid hormone levels precipitate sympathetic nervous system activation, potentially culminating in heightened heart rate (tachycardia) and disruptions in electrical conduction. This influence can induce QT interval shortening and provoke premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), amplifying the propensity for more severe arrhythmic manifestations. Insufficiency of thyroid hormones decelerates metabolic activity, potentially leading to bradycardia. Hypothyroidism elevates the risk of atrial fibrillation occurrence and additionally elongates QT intervals, enhancing the susceptibility to torsade de pointes. Untreated hormone disorders affect severe cardiac complications, which can occur in patients with previously diagnosed heart disease. Effective management of cardiac arrhythmias in patients with thyroid dysfunction necessitates interdisciplinary collaboration between endocrinologists and cardiologists.

Authors: Kowalska Karolina Krystyna , Machorowska-Pieniążek Agnieszka Maria
Published: January 2024

Oral health conditions are often associated with the presence of specific bacterial and mycological flora. The oral cavity pathogens can be considered a potential infection source, in which, among others, Streptococcus viridans, plays a special role. One of the potential complications that can occur during dental procedures is infective endocarditis (IE). An increased risk of IE is observed in patients with congenital defects, artificial heart valves and after implantation of a pacemaker or defibrillator/cardioverter, especially with a history of previous episodes of IE. This study emphasises the significance of risk factors associated with dental procedures and suggests preventive measures, such as regular dental check-ups and maintenance of good oral hygiene.

Published: January 2024

O trauma torácico é uma importante causa de morte e incapacidade em pessoas com menos de 45 anos, sendo as lesões pulmonares as mais comuns e potencialmente letais em caso de trauma torácico por PAFs. Complicações como empiema pleural (EP) podem ocorrer, especialmente em casos de hemopneumotórax, associadas a altas morbimortalidades. A resolução do EP pode resultar em fibrose e restrição do parênquima pulmonar, com tratamento variando de drenagem pleural fechada à decorticação pulmonar. A contaminação da cavidade pleural desencadeia um processo inflamatório, exigindo terapêutica de acordo com a fase do EP. A American Thoracic Society indica cirurgia nas fases 2 e 3 do EP, sendo a decorticação pulmonar o tratamento para estágios fibrinopurulento e crônico. Embora a abordagem toracoscópica videoassistida seja eficaz nas fases iniciais, a decorticação via toracotomia é o padrão-ouro na fase 3. No caso apresentado, a decorticação pulmonar por vídeo foi inicialmente escolhida, mas devido à complexidade da fase 3, a cirurgia foi convertida para uma toracotomia, realizada com sucesso e sem intercorrências.
A TAXA SELIC COMO FERRAMENTA ECONÔMICA PARA A PROMOÇÃO DO CONTROLE INFLACIONÁRIO BRASILEIRO EM PROL DA JUSTIÇA SOCIAL
Authors: Laureano Marcos Nunes
Published: January 2024

A Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988 apresenta a função social como um dos princípios constitucionais da ordem econômica. Com base nisso, e sabendo que a economia é a mola propulsora da sociedade, aliada a elementos acessórios como a política, o direito e a cultura, entende-se aqui que o controle inflacionário brasileiro pode ser exercido pela selic e que esta se apresenta como uma importante ferramenta de justiça social econômica. Esta se realiza a partir do momento em que as desigualdades sociais não se mostram tão evidentes em uma sociedade, atingindo-se o âmago da equidade social. A metodologia deste estudo se caracteriza pela abordagem qualitativa, método comparativo-crítico e pesquisa bibliográfica.
The 2021 Cholera Outbreak in Nigeria, Data and Models Used to Explore Controls and Challenges
Authors: Collins Obiora Cornelius , Duffy Kevin Jan
Published: January 2024

Cholera is an acute diarrhoeal illness that affects humanity globally, especially in areas where there is limited access to clean water and adequate sanitation. A Nigerian cholera outbreak from January 2021 to January 2022 resulted in many cases and deaths. A mathematical model that takes into consideration the challenges that affected effective implementation of control measures for this 2021 cholera outbreak is developed. Important epidemiological features of the model such as the basic reproduction number (R0), the disease-free equilibrium, and the endemic equilibrium are determined and analysed. The disease-free equilibrium is shown to be asymptotically stable provided R0 < 1. The model is shown to undergo forward bifurcation at R0 = 1 using the Centre Manifold Theorem. Sensitivity analysis is used to determine the parameters that have the highest influence on transmission. Fitting the model to data from the 2021 Nigerian cholera outbreak, important parameters of the model are estimated. The impact of control measures as well as challenges that affected the effective implementation of these control measures are considered.
From Thousand Canals to Roads: The Transformation of Transportation Mode in Pontianak
Authors: Gunawan Ivan , Soemardiono Bambang , Septanti Dewi
Published: January 2024

Pontianak City was established in 1771 on the the Kapuas River and Landak River riverbanks, the latter being the longest river in Indonesia. The city was once known as the City of a Thousand Canals. However, in its development, people shifted to land transportation modes, leaving the canals in an extinction process. This study aimed to uncover the factors and impacts of the inland water transportation network fading from the Pontianak urban structure. The research used a sequential explanatory design, combining qualitative methods in the form of literature review and quantitative methods using space syntax analysis. By comparing the spatial configuration of the canals and roads in a diachronic approach, the study found proof of the importance of the canals’ existence in the Pontianak urban structure. Water transportation can be the answer to fixing environmental issues, flood hazards, and traffic congestion. Revitalizing the canals can help bring a healthy water environment because the people will change their perception of the canals from sewage routes to transportation routes. Revitalizing the canals can also bring back waterside activity, generate a sense of belonging, and bring back part of the former identity of Pontianak City.

Introduction: Chronic pain is a complex and multifaceted condition, characterized by the persistence of pain beyond three months, as defined by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP). Unlike acute pain, chronic pain encompasses biological, psychological, and social factors, significantly affecting quality of life and daily functioning. Its diagnosis is challenging, often based on subjective descriptions of the patient, and requires a multidisciplinary approach for effective and personalized treatment. Objective: To analyze and synthesize the most recent research on chronic pain management strategies in order to identify the most effective treatment measures. Methodology: The searches were carried out in the PUBMED and LILACS databases, using the search process through vocabulary controlled through descriptors and Boolean operators "and" and "or". Conclusion: This review highlights the efficacy of various approaches in the management of chronic pain, from pharmacological treatments to physical and psychological therapies, emphasizing the need for multidisciplinary treatment. The challenges in diagnosis and personalized treatment, given the individual variability of chronic pain, are highlighted. The review also points out research gaps, the importance of psychosocial aspects, and the role of non-conventional therapies, concluding that chronic pain requires integrated and innovative therapeutic management.
Nodal flow and situs inversus: A review of the literature
Authors: Garcia Angela Chaves de Oliveira , Caputo Lucélia Rita Gaudino , Andrade Wellington Venâncio de , Latorraca Elder Francisco
Published: January 2024

Variations of situs solitus totalis, the normal organ disposition pattern, involve dextrocardia, situs inversus, situs inversus totalis and situs ambiguous. These laterality defects have been documented for more than 400 years, and a connection to ciliary abnormalities has been elucidated by observing cilia from the primitive node, which can promote “nodal flow”, possibly necessary for the development of left-right asymmetry. The aim of this work was to perform a literature review, showing variations in the usual anatomy and the connection between nodal flow and normal asymmetric pattern. A narrative review was carried out with articles from the MEDLINE/PubMed, SciELO and LILACS databases and with books relevant to the theme. The initial embryonic development comprises the formation of the organizing structure, a primitive node, and its cilia are responsible for the nodal flow, determinant in many vertebrates in the breaking of the embryonic bilateral symmetry. The formation of asymmetry is associated with morphogenic gradients to the left of the node, the model of two cilia and the mechanism of nodal vesicular plots, until it results in organogenesis. Ciliary abnormalities configure clinical manifestations in disorders such as Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia and Kartagener syndrome. The nodal flow, in fact, is important in normal anatomical standardization, and the cilia are necessary for the configuration of situs solitus totalis.
The symbology of the body and the resignification of power relations in the media with typologies Plus Size

Published: January 2024

The representation of the body has always been associated with ethical and moral values determined by social groups, such as society, religion, among others. The ephemeral social relations of contemporaneity have transformed the female body into an instrument of personal assertion. In this sense, the present research seeks to reflect on how the media have explored the female physical and bodily pattern, relating them to self-acceptance and social status, through the acceptance of the other. The objective of this research is to analyze the discourses of social media with Plus Size typologies, in order to evaluate how social media conveys information about the body, associating it with the identity of individuals. The methodology used includes a literature review and uses content analysis (BARDIN, 2010), aiming to understand the resignification of the power relations of the body in social media. Goffman (1988), Bourdieu (2000), Vargas (2014), Brunelli, Amaral and Silva (2019), among others, were used as theoretical frameworks. That said, issues related to beauty standards and some forms of media influences capable of creating, maintaining, or intensifying the resignification of the body are highlighted, as well as evidencing the difficulties of self-acceptance, considering the liquid modernity that transforms values into something transitory with the creation of active concepts in people's perception of themselves and of what is expected of society.

Published: January 2024

This chapter seeks to understand rural and professional education in Paraíba in line with the political and social discussions of the Vargas period. It is the result of the research project Social Representations on Professional Education in the newspaper A União (Paraíba, 1930s) funded by the IFPB's INTERCONECTA public notice. At first, the text presents a small contextualization of Professional Education in Brazil and Paraíba up to our time frame, 1930. Soon after, he discusses, based on some bibliographic references, how, throughout the Vargas period, a rural education focused on work and nationalism became increasingly evident. Next, it presents some examples of rural education in Paraíba, discussing how it was organized and what would be the social and political representations that shaped the practices of this education. As a conclusion, we present a little of the trajectory of Sizenando Costa, a teacher and intellectual who fought for rural education in the period in question. Also, the proposal of the Model Rural Schools that he defended. The chapter dialogues both with studies on the history of rural and professional education in Paraíba and Brazil, as well as with analyses that deal with politics in the 1930s and 1940s.
Systematic mapping of the discussion about the multifacets of language in the deconstruction of binarism in the Amazon
Authors: Anjos Danilo Nascimento dos , Oliveira Juliana Lara Melo de
Published: January 2024

Given the need to understand the phenomenon of binarism in the Amazon and how current research is inserted into the discourses created in this context, there was interest in this investigation. Thus, the PICOC methodology and the use of the Parsifal online tool were used, which guided the research paths. The aim was then to find out whether research connects binarism in the Amazon with the use of discourses via language in the educational context. Thus, the main references used were the articles selected in the databases, namely RIUFPA and Scielo, which allowed us to predict that, despite the discussions raised in the last five years, the relationship is not made directly and there is a need to delve deeper into gender themes and the construction of binarism related to decolonial epistemologies when using discourses.

This chapter explores the evolution of education, focusing on the influence and integration of emerging educational technologies, especially in Education 4.0 and Education 5.0 approaches. Initially, the fundamental distinctions and convergences between these concepts are analyzed, highlighting the main technologies associated with each approach. This analysis aims to provide an in-depth conceptual understanding and explore its significant impacts on the contemporary educational landscape. The study, in turn, highlights the challenges, opportunities and results experienced by educators and students in the face of this new educational paradigm. Teaching practice is thoroughly examined, considering the transformations resulting from the implementation of emerging technologies in classrooms. Practical examples of educational institutions that incorporate the pedagogical practices of Education 4.0 and 5.0 illustrate their application in the educational reality. In this sense, it seeks to contextualize and justify the relevance of research on the evolution of education with the advent of emerging educational technologies. Despite the remarkable advances in learning and collaboration provided by these approaches, significant challenges are faced, such as the need for continuous training, ethical issues, and the urgency of investments, partnerships, and the active involvement of students. In summary, Education 4.0 and 5.0 require innovation, commitment and an ethical approach to transform the educational landscape in a dynamic, equitable and responsible way.

Published: January 2024

This article proposes an analysis of the categories of Bloom's Taxonomy that prove to be more effective in implementing collaborative learning in the context of distance education. Conceived in the 1950s by psychologist and educator Benjamin Bloom, Bloom's Taxonomy serves as a widely used pedagogical tool, playing a fundamental role in guiding the planning and evaluation of the teaching and learning process. This approach divides learning objectives into three distinct domains (cognitive, affective, and psychomotor), establishes a hierarchy outlining a progressive cycle of learning. The structure encourages students to master each level before advancing to subsequent stages, thus creating a progressive learning framework. The integration of collaborative learning with Bloom's Taxonomy provides a conducive framework for planning teaching activities that promote mutual learning, as well as stimulate knowledge construction and the development of social and teamwork skills. The methodology adopted for this study involved a thorough literature review, emphasizing works that highlight the relevance of Bloom's Taxonomy as a tool centered on the learning process. Among the identified advantages, the ability of this taxonomy to effectively guide the cognitive and affective development of students stands out. However, the literature review also exposes some limitations in the use of Bloom's Taxonomy, especially when applied to distance education. The absence of physical contact between teachers and students emerges as a significant challenge, complicating the assessment and monitoring of student performance. Thus, this chapter emphasizes the critical need for educational institutions to consider such amplified disadvantages in the context of remote teaching, emphasizing the strategic importance of implementing adaptive approaches to mitigate these limitations.

This article explores the factors influencing happiness levels and compares them within the contexts of Western and Eastern cultures. It particularly examines the role of income in shaping happiness, with a focus on Western cultures, often associated with materialism, and Eastern cultures, frequently linked to spirituality. The analysis reveals four significant determinants of happiness: economic achievement, social support, health, and the freedom to make choices. While income, measured by per capita GDP growth, contributes to happiness, globally, freedom of choice and social support exert a more substantial influence. This holds true when comparing Europe and North America to Asia (excluding the Middle East) and when contrasting Western and Eastern cultures. The study underscores the significance of social and political factors in achieving happiness, emphasizing the need for prioritizing their development. Furthermore, it challenges the notion that Western cultures are solely materialistic and Eastern cultures entirely spiritual, highlighting the intricacies of cultural differences. In sum, these findings emphasize the need for more comprehensive and diverse research to understand variations within specific cultural and ethnic contexts.

Published: January 2024

La presente investigación se concibe en el programa de Maestría en Pedagogía en las Artes de la Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja. En este estudio, se plantea y propone un modelo integral para la ejecución de proyectos de diseño gráfico. El enfoque de la investigación se centra en el análisis de los proyectos de titulación profesionalizantes en la carrera de Diseño Gráfico de la Universidad de Cuenca, utilizando la metodología de mapeo sistemático. Gracias a esta metodología, se llevó a cabo un análisis metódico y riguroso de la información recopilada, lo que permitió poner de manifiesto lo que hemos denominado "constantes metodológicas", mismas que fundamentan el modelo propuesto. Dicho modelo busca optimizar el desarrollo de proyectos de diseño gráfico al combinar de manera sinérgica el pensamiento divergente, que fomenta la generación de múltiples ideas y enfoques, con el pensamiento convergente, que facilita la selección y consolidación de las mejores opciones. Al tener en cuenta estos elementos esenciales, el foco de la propuesta es mejorar tanto el proceso como la eficacia de los proyectos de diseño, proporcionando una experiencia enriquecedora tanto para los estudiantes como para los profesionales en el campo.
Hip Capsular Repair Affect on Joint Laxity in Total Hip Arthroplasty
Authors: Boonruksa Sirisak , Ruangthong Nathee
Published: January 2024

Purpose: Loss of tissue tension around the hip is a cause of hip dislocation. The shuck test is a simple intraoperative test for soft tissue tension. This study evaluated the soft tissue tightness around the hip joint after capsule repair and compared the joint tension resulting from different capsule repair approaches.
Methods: Fifty-three patients underwent a non-cemented total hip replacement using image-free computer-assisted surgery. The patients were divided into the posterior and the anterolateral approach groups. After the hip was reduce, a computer navigation plan was devise to restore proper leg length. The shuck test was applied to determine the soft tissue tension before and after capsule repair. The leg length was recorded after hip reduction and the shuck test. Data from the computer navigation were collected for analysis.
Results The results of this study showed that after the shuck test, the leg length increased by up to 5.98±1.75 mm. (6.73±1.64 mm. and 5.26±1.56 mm for the posterior and anterolateral approach, respectively). After capsule repaire, the leg was shortened by 4.78±1.31 mm. (5.42±1.10 mm. and 4.15±1.20 mm for posterior and anterolateral approach, respectively). The study found that the leg shortening from the posterior approach was significantly higher than the anterolateral approach (p-value <0.001).  There were no hip dislocations in this series.
Conclusions: Hip capsule repair improves the soft tissue tension around the hip joint. This helps reduce the risk of hip dislocation. Hip capsule repair using a posterior approach has a better outcome.
