Evaluation of Ischemia and Reperfusion Interval With Neuromonitorization in Tourniquet Application
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two differential tourniquet pressure in lower extremity surgery cases. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- What are the perioperative neurophysiological effects of ischemia and compression in the tissue under the tourniquet?
- Are the effects of two different tourniquet pressures on neuromonitoring significantly different?
- Can the ideal time of the reperfusion interval be evaluated by neuromonitoring?
- Are the effects of two different tourniquet pressures on the quadriceps denervation significantly different from each other? Participants meeting the inclusion criteria will be evaluated for parameters to be used preoperatively. It will be evaluated in the 1st day, 1st week and 1-month follow-ups in the postoperative period.
The investigators will compare two different tourniquet pressure ( Limb occlusion pressure +50 mmHg / + 100 mmHg) to see if it will be evaluated whether there is a significant difference in terms of quadriceps denervation, vas scores, total blood estimate volume loss, intraoperative MEP decrease, and recovery times, quadriceps tendon thickness, thigh circumfrences.

Detailed Description
As a result of the power analysis for this study, the number of samples was determined as 24. The study was started after the approval of the ethics committee.
Participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were randomized in terms of tourniquet pressure to be applied and divided into two groups. It was planned to evaluate quadriceps tendon thickness by USG and MRI, thigh circumference, VAS scores, CBC, and CK in blood samples in the preoperative period of all patients. It was planned to obtain parameters related to MEP by using intraoperative neuromonitorization during the surgery. In the postoperative period, all parameters that were evaluated preoperatively on the 1st day, 1st week, and 1st month were re-evaluated. Finally, EMG evaluation was planned for 1 month.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: LOP + 50 mmHg
As a result of randomization, the surgical tourniquet pressure is 50 mmHg higher than the limb occlusion pressure.
Limb occlusion pressure is calculated using the formulation by Graham: LOP = [(Systolic Pressure - Diastolic Pressure)× (Limb Diameter) / 3 Cuff Width)] + Diastolic Pressure

Limb occlusion pressure is calculated using the formulation by Graham: LOP = [(Systolic Pressure - Diastolic Pressure)× (Limb Diameter) / 3 Cuff Width)] + Diastolic Pressure.
One group is LOP + 50 mm Hg and other one is LOP + 100 mmHg

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Quadriceps Tendon Thickness-USG
Time Frame: Preoperative, Postoperative 1st day and 4th week will be evaluated
|
In the study, quadriceps tendon thickness measurements will be performed in B Mode using the Clarius Portable L7 HD3 Linear Ultrasound device (13-4 MHz).The measurements of the patients will be performed in the supine position with the knee flexed to 30 degrees with a pillow placed in the popliteal web to prevent anisotropy in the quadriceps.
The USG probe will be parallel to the long axis of the femur in the sagittal plane, and the patella will be placed at the midpoint of the proximal pole with its distal part.
Quadiceps tendon thickness was measured at three different levels, 5-10-15 mm from the proximal patella.
The quadriceps tendon borders were determined as the first hyperechoic region, superficial and deep.
|
Preoperative, Postoperative 1st day and 4th week will be evaluated
|
Quadriceps Tendon Thickness-MRI
Time Frame: Preoperative, Postoperative third month
|
In the study, the thickness of the quadriceps tendon will also be evaluated with MRI.
In the sagittal T1 sequence of knee MRI images, the portion with the largest diameter 1.5 and 3 cm proximal to the superior pole of the patella will be taken as the tendon thickness.

Preoperative, Postoperative third month
|
Thigh Diameter
Time Frame: Preoperative, Postoperative 1st day, first week and 4th week will be evaluated
|
Thigh diameters were measured comparatively with a non-flexible 7 mm tape measure from 10 cm proximal to the midpoint of the proximal patella.
As the leg length, the distance from the level of the tibial plateau to the medial malleolus type was measured.

|
Total blood volume will be calculated with the formula Nadler previously presented in the literature.
Total blood volume loss will be calculated using preoperative and postoperative hemogram and hematocrit parameters.

Time Frame: Preoperative, Postoperative 1st day, Postoperative 1 st month
|
Creatinine kinase, one of the blood parameters showing muscle degradation, will be evaluated by taking blood samples from the patients before and after the surgery.

ENMG is an electrophysiological study often used to evaluate nerve injuries.
Permanent nerve damage will be evaluated with a nerve conduction study performed by an experienced neurologist comparing both extremities at the first postoperative month of the participants.
Peroneal and tibial nerves as motor nerves, sural and s.peroneal nerves as sensory nerves will be evaluated.
