Antibiotic prophylaxis (AP) in surgical procedures is commonly used to prevent infections that may occur after operations. There are multiple factors that can contribute to increased risk of postsurgical complications that include prolonged hospitalization, reoperation, and readmissions. One of the strategies of decreasing the risk of bacterial contamination and developing infections is preprocedural antibiotic administration. When selecting an appropriate antibiotic, it is important to take into account surgery type and patient's characteristics which would also impact timing of administration and prophylaxis duration...

Postoperative constipation is a common problem among orthopaedic surgical patients leading to discomfort, increased length of stay, and other complications. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of polyethylene glycol compared with docusate sodium for the prevention of constipation, after total knee arthroplasty. The secondary purpose was to examine the effectiveness of polyethylene glycol on pain and strain with bowel movement. A two-group nonequivalent cohort design was used to evaluate the effect of one 17-g dose of polyethylene glycol by mouth on postoperative day 1 compared with usual care with docusate sodium 100 mg starting the day of surgery and continued twice daily at home...

Anterior cervical spine surgery is a common type of neck surgery in orthopaedics. Swallowing disorder is one of the most common complications after surgery. It is characterized by food entering the esophagus from the mouth through the pharynx. The process of reaching the stomach is hampered and leads to increases in a range of risk factors that affect the health of the patient. This article reviews relevant literature reports from recent years retrieved from various national and international medical databases, aiming to find more economical, effective, and simple perioperative nursing strategies for patients with cervical anterior surgery through evidence-based thinking and methods, with the aim of developing a personalized care model that is easy to implement and has a long-lasting effect and a wide range of rehabilitation benefits to better serve patients...

Axillary crutches are the most common assistive devices given to individuals with musculoskeletal injuries in an acute care setting. Nurses are frequently the care provider fitting injured individuals with crutches. This study compared the crutch length determined by the crutch manufacturer's height setting with the crutch length attained after applying a standard clinical protocol for crutch fitting. A total of 116 adults with lower extremity injuries were enrolled. Self-reported height was documented as well as initial crutch length as indicated by the numbers on the push-button feature of the crutches...

Preoperative optimization programs for total joint arthroplasty identify and address risk factors to reduce postoperative complications, thereby improving patients' ability to be safe surgical candidates. This article introduces preoperative optimization programs and describes the role of orthopaedic nurse navigators. This foundation will be used to produce an article series with recommendations for optimization of several modifiable biopsychosocial factors. We consulted orthopaedic nurse navigators across the United States and conducted a literature review regarding preoperative optimization to establish the importance of nurse navigation in preoperative optimization...

Patients with rheumatic disease have a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome. The purpose of this study was to investigate temporal changes in metabolic syndrome indices and to identify factors influencing metabolic syndrome development. A prospective cohort study design was adopted. The study participants were 68 outpatients with a rheumatic disease at an outpatient clinic of a university hospital. Data on demographics, health-related characteristics, steroid use, serum C-reactive protein levels, and metabolic syndrome indices were collected between December 2017 and March 2021...
