متن کاملSensory reinnervation of free flaps in reconstruction of the breast and the upper and lower extremities☆
There is long-standing debate about sensate versus non-sensate free microvascular flaps among microsurgeons. The principle of connecting not only the vascular supply, but also sensitive nerves, in free tissue transfer is attractive. However, increased operating time and partial spontaneous innervation led to the common decision to restrict microsurgical tissue transfer to the vascular anastomos...
متن کاملComparison of blood pressure measurements on the upper and lower extremities during spinal anesthesia
Introduction: During spinal anesthesia, measurement of blood pressure is often obtained by an indirect method using an inflatable cuff on the upper arm. The relationship between the blood pressure measurements at the two sites in patients undergoing spinal anesthesia is unclear. This study was designed to evaluate the difference observed in systolic blood pressure (SBP) taken from the upp...
متن کاملCommon tendinopathies in the upper and lower extremities.
Overuse tendon injuries (tendinopathies) present a challenge to sports medicine patients and clinicians. Despite the high prevalence of tendinopathy in recreational and competitive athletes, treatment is often hampered by contradictory definitions and descriptions of the underlying pathology, with a limited repertoire of evidence-based treatments. This review provides the clinician with a basic...
متن کاملSimilar motor recovery of upper and lower extremities after stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study examined the validity of the clinical tenet that poststroke recovery of the upper extremity is less rapid and complete than poststroke recovery of the lower extremity. Previous studies comparing upper and lower extremity recovery have evaluated disability rather than motor impairment. Individuals with lower extremity impairments may be more functional and appea...
