Overview
This study was planned to investigate the physiopathology of bradycardia and hypotension that occur in some patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) between the ages of 65 and 90 years when the tourniquet, which is routinely used in patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA), is opened at the end of the operation and to determine the physiopathology of these effects of the tourniquet and how these effects can be prevented.
Description
This study was planned to investigate the effects of lower extremity tourniquets routinely used in TDP surgeries on hemodynamics, SpO2, ETCO2 and blood tables in male and female patients aged 65-90 years. In the patients included in the study, measurements from the monitor will be recorded and preop and postop hemogram, complete biochemistry, coagulation arterial blood gases will be recorded from each patient's file and the values before and after the tourniquet will be compared. New randomized prospective studies will be proposed by determining the physiopathological changes (reperfusion syndrome) that occur after opening the tourniquet in patients and evaluating how these changes can be prevented
