The Result of Banpong Hospital Knee Portal System in Knee Arthroscopic Surgery
Keywords:
innovation, tissue injuries, knee arthroscopic surgeryAbstract
Objective: This study is to compare the result of use and non-use of Banpong Hospital knee portal system (innovation tool) in term of soft tissue injuries around surgical wounds In patients who have undergone knee arthroscopic surgery.
Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled study, 46 patients undergoing knee arthroscopic surgery were randomized into 2 groups , use innovation tool group and control group. Two groups were compared as to the injury of soft tissues surrounding surgical wounds considering the postoperative complications of surgical wounds and portal wound tenderness on the 14th day after surgery.
Results: No significant differences were found in postoperative complications of surgical wounds in both groups. But there was a significant less portal wound tenderness in innovation tool group. The mean visual analog scale of anterolateral portal wound and anteromedial portal wound in innovation tool group was 3.26 and 4.91 , and control group was 4.09 and 6.57 (p<.05). In both groups, the mean visual analog scale of anteromedial portal wound was a significant much portal wound tenderness than anterolateral portal wound.
Conclusion: Using Banpong Hospital knee portal system in conjunction with knee arthroscopic surgery will reduce post operative portal wound tenderness, less injury to the tissues surrounding the surgical wound , as well as being a device that is easily fabricated from material surrounding.
