A Randomized Cadaver Study Comparing First-Attempt Success Between Tibial and Humeral Intraosseous Insertions Using NIO Device by Paramedics: A Preliminary Investigation.

ABSTRACT: UNLABELLED:Medical personnel may encounter difficulties in obtaining intravenous (IV) access during cardiac arrest. The 2015 American Heart Association guidelines and the 2015 European Resuscitation Council guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) suggest that rescuers establish intraosseous (IO) access if an IV line is not easily obtainable.The aim of the study was to compare the success rates of the IO proximal tibia and proximal humerus head access performed by paramedics using the New Intraosseous access device (NIO; Persys Medical, Houston, TX, USA) in an adult cadaver model during simulated CPR.In an interventional, randomized, crossover, single-center cadaver study, a semi-automatic spring-load driven NIO access device was investigated. In total, 84 paramedics with less than 5-year experience in Emergency Medical Service participated in the study. The trial was performed on 42 adult cadavers. In each cadaver, 2 IO accesses to the humerus head, and 2 IO accesses to the proximal tibia were obtained.The success rate of the first IO attempt was 89.3% (75/84) for tibial access, and 73.8% (62/84) for humeral access (P?=?0.017). The procedure times were significantly faster for tibial access [16.8 (interquartile range, IQR, 15.1-19.9]?s] than humeral access [26.7 (IQR, 22.1-30.9)?s] (P?

Project description:Purpose:To evaluate the short-term clinical outcomes, complications, hospitalization time, and readmission rate related to day-case opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) with intraosseous PEEK (polyether ether ketone) implant, in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. Methods:An observational study on patients treated with OWHTO using intraosseous PEEK implant was performed with a period of 12 months follow-up. Grade of Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was assessed preoperatively, at 6 months, and at 12 months postoperatively. A simple t test was used to analyze the outcomes. P values <.05 were considered significant. Complications and revision surgeries were registered. Results:In the period from 2016 to 2017, a consecutive group of 40 patients (13 female, 27 male) with symptomatic medial knee osteoarthritis and varus malalignment were included in the study. The average age of the patients was 54.9 (± 7.6) years. In total, 30 (77%) patients met the criterion for minimal clinically important difference in KOOS scores. The KOOS symptoms improved from 58.1 ± 20 to 78.5 ± 16.5 (P < .0001), pain from 48.1 ± 18.2 to 78.6 ± 18.5 (P < .0001), activities of daily living from 59.0 ± 19.5 to 84.1 ± 15.2 (P < .0001), sport from 23.2 ± 17.6 to 55.6 ± 26.3 (P < .0001), and quality of life from 28.4 ± 12.8 to 61.5 ± 22.5 (P < .0001) at 1-year follow-up. The average hospitalization time at the Day Surgery Unit was 5.6 ± 0.7 hours, and 4 (10%) patients had to be readmitted to the hospital within 2 weeks postoperatively. The overall complication rate was 18%. Complications that required revision surgery were registered in 4 patients (10%), including 2 non-unions and 2 progressions of osteoarthritis. Conclusions:The day-case OWHTO with intraosseous PEEK implant was a success in 77% of the cases. The results and complications were comparable with other published studies. Despite a short hospitalization time, the readmission rate was low. Level of Evidence:IV, therapeutic case series.
