Neuropathic pain after orthopaedic surgery with continuous peripheral nerve block
CONCLUSION: Several factors were associated with a higher risk of having possible neuropathy after six months. BMI, duration of catheter and PD score at discharge were correlated with risk of possible neuropathic pain.FUNDING: None.TRIAL REGISTRATION: The study was a quality control project and therefore did not require registration under Danish law.PMID:38445315 | DOI:10.61409/A09230581 (Source: Danish Medical Journal)

Intravenous dexamethasone in pain treatment after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that addition of IV dexamethasone in VATS may reduce the need for opioids and facilitate early mobilisation.FUNDING: The study was funded by the Department of Clinical Medicine, Aalborg University, Aalborg, Denmark TRIAL REGISTRATION. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04633850). The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and all participants provided written consent.PMID:38445317 | DOI:10.61409/A05230317 (Source: Danish Medical Journal)

Knee dislocations with vascular injuries - a review article
Dan Med J. 2024 Feb 26;71(3):A08230529. doi: 10.61409/A08230529.ABSTRACTKnee dislocations are complex and devastating injuries that are potentially limb threatening. A high level of suspicion is required to diagnose and treat these injuries properly and timely because some of the knee dislocations spontaneously reduce, and the seriousness of the injury might not be appreciated early. Early diagnosis of concomitant vascular injuries is imperative to avoid limb loss because the risk of amputation is high when diagnosis and timely intervention are delayed. It is recommended that serial ankle-brachial index (ABI) be performed ...

Change in injury pattern with mandatory, referred access compared to open access in an emergency department
CONCLUSIONS: Changing from open to referred access altered the composition of injuries for patients seen in the A and E Department, indicating a smaller risk of a visit with referred access than with open access. The odds of a visit being due to a major injury increased after implementing referred access, and the number of visits decreased.FUNDING: The Nordentoft Fund TRIAL REGISTRATION.
