Is arthrocentesis of temporomandibular joint with corticosteroids beneficial? A systematic review

2018

Background Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are musculoskeletal conditions that can inhibit the normal function of temporomandibular joints (TMJs) and affect the patient’s quality of life, negatively. Arthrocentesis (AC) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used for treating TMDs. The aim of present paper is to evaluate the advantages of administrating corticosteroid (CS) during AC by reviewing high quality released articles. Material and Methods Searching on Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Google Scholar, PubMed, ProQuest, and Scopus databases were performed with focusing on proper key words. Related titles and abstracts, up to December 2017, were screened and selected based on i…

The efficacy of intra-articular PRP, ozone and ozone+PRP injections in patients with osteoarthritis

2018

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and some joints are effected more than others. The prevalence of OA increases with age and it represents the major problem for functional impairment in older patients. Non-surgical treatment with oral drugs is not suitable for many patients suffering from gastric disorders, high blood pressure or different heart diseases. Intra-articular injections are a promising solution in these cases.
 This study was performed to compare the efficacy and safety of ozone injections, PRP (platelet rich plasma) injections and combined ozone plus PRP injections in patients with symptomatic knee OA. 
 120 patients were diagnosed of OA accordi…

Clinical and radiological outcome of arthrocentesis followed by autologous blood injection for treatment of chronic recurrent temporomandibular joint…

2017

Background This study was conducted to evaluate the functional outcome and MRI findings of arthrocentsis followed by autologous blood injection (ABI) into the joint space for management of chronic recurrent TMJ dislocation. Material and methods Total ten patients with bilateral chronic recurrent condylar dislocation were included in the study. Arthrocentesis of both TMJ was performed on each patient, followed by the injection of 2 ml of autologous blood into the superior joint compartment and 1 ml onto the outer surface of the joint capsule. Preoperative and postoperative assessment included; thorough history, clinical examination of TMJ, maximal mouth opening, frequency of dislocation, TMJ…

Temporomandibular joint arthrocentesis guided by ultrasonography: An anatomical study

2021

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthrocentesis is a common procedure in maxillofacial surgery departments for the treatment of TMJ dysfunction. The use of ultrasonography in this area is rare, and in the vast majority of cases only as a diagnostic, and non-therapeutic use. Through this study we propose the equipment and ultrasound parameters necessary to obtain detailed and practical images when using ultrasonography as a therapeutic guide in arthrocentesis of TMJ. In addition, we provide data regarding the placement and working angulations of both the ultrasound probe and the needle that are ideal for facilitating image-guided puncture. It is a simple technique, with a relatively short l…

Temporomandibular joint arthrocentesis. Review of the literature.

2011

The treatment of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is still controversial. TMJ arthrocentesis represents a form of minimally invasive surgical treatment in patients suffering from internal derangement of the TMJ, especially closed lock. It consists of washing the joint with the possibility of depositing a drug or other therapeutic substance. Resolution of symptoms is due to the removal of chemical inflammatory mediators and changes in intra-articular pressure. Numerous clinical studies regarding this technique have been published. The goal of this paper is to review all clinical articles that have been published with regard to the critique of this technique. 19 articles with different desig…

Longitudinal analysis of Spanish doctoral theses in education (1841-2012)

2014

This article analyzes the research output of doctoral theses in the field of Education defended in Spain from 1841-2012. It offers a quantified global and diachronic view of such series. As a landmark to note is the fact that until 1954, obtaining a doctoral degree was centralized at the Complutense University of Madrid. They are used as search engines bibliographic databases: TESEO and institutional repositories, and basic bibliography of the area to carry out the collection of the sample. The contrasting hypothesis is to verify whether the time series partially follows the pattern of growth of the science of Derek J. de Solla Price. The central finding is that the Spanish production of do…

Síntesis de fucosil-oligosacáridos, evaluación de sus propiedades bioactivas y caracterización de sus rutas metabólicas en Lactobacillus

2016

Los fucosil-oligosacáridos (FUS) son carbohidratos que contienen fucosa y constituyen más del 50% de los oligosacáridos libres presentes en la leche humana, sin embargo su función fisiológica es mayormente desconocida. Los FUS forman parte también de muchos glico-complejos presentes en las mucosas y en la superficie de células eucariotas. Se ha evidenciado que las características estructurales que presentan estos carbohidratos se relacionan con funciones biológicas importantes, entre las cuales destacan el efecto prebiótico y la actividad anti-adhesiva contra patógenos intestinales. A pesar de que la participación de los FUS en muchas funciones biológicas es esencial, éstos permanecen relat…

Masteroppgave spesialsykepleie ME519 – Universitetet i Agder 2018 Background: Hip fractures are a common cause of hospitalization and are linked with high morbidity and mortality rates. It is therefore important to optimize every aspect of their treatment to minimize complications. The Nurse Anesthetist plays an important role in preventing complications related to both surgery and anesthesia. Purpose: The aim of this project is to evaluate the quality of the current procedure for preoperative prevention of hypothermia in our hospital. We wanted to investigate if this procedure for preventing hypothermia is as effective as preoperative warming with a forcedair system in hip fracture patient…
