Surgical stress is known to affect body temperature, white blood cell (WBC) count, C-reactive protein (CRP), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). The aim of the present study was to investigate which parameter is most suitable for quantitative analysis of surgical stress.
Unilateral total knee arthroplasty (U-TKA) and bilateral TKA (B-TKA) were selected for the subjects of this study because the B-TKA creates approximately double the surgical stress of the U-TKA. The temperature, WBC count, CRP, and IL-6 in the blood were measured pre- and postoperatively in both groups. The IL-6 in the drainage fluid was also measured after the operation.
The temperature, WBC count, CRP, and IL-6 in the blood significantly increased on the first day after the operation in both groups. There were significant differences between the two groups in the WBC count (P < 0.05) and the IL-6 level in the blood (P < 0.05) on the first day after the surgery. There were no significant differences between the two groups for the CRP and IL-6 levels in the drainage fluid. The relative proportions--(B-TKA/U-TKA) x 100 (%)--were 170.4% for the operating time, 219.4 % for total blood loss, 200.0% for blood transfusion, 100.3% for temperature, 128.9% for WBC count, 127.4% for CRP, and 246.5% for the IL-6 level in the blood.
The serum IL-6 level may best reflect surgical stress and could therefore be a quantitative marker of surgical stress.
已知手术应激会影响体温、白细胞(WBC)计数、C反应蛋白(CRP)和白细胞介素-6(IL-6)。本研究的目的是调查哪个参数最适合用于手术应激的定量分析。
本研究选择单侧全膝关节置换术(U-TKA)和双侧全膝关节置换术(B-TKA)作为研究对象,因为B-TKA产生的手术应激约为U-TKA的两倍。两组患者均在术前和术后测量血液中的温度、WBC计数、CRP和IL-6。术后还测量了引流液中的IL-6。
两组患者术后第一天血液中的温度、WBC计数、CRP和IL-6均显著升高。术后第一天两组患者的WBC计数(P < 0.05)和血液中的IL-6水平(P < 0.05)存在显著差异。两组患者引流液中的CRP和IL-6水平无显著差异。相对比例——(B-TKA/U-TKA)×100(%)——手术时间为170.4%,总失血量为219.4%,输血量为200.0%,体温为100.3%,WBC计数为128.9%,CRP为127.4%,血液中的IL-6水平为246.5%。
血清IL-6水平可能最能反映手术应激,因此可能是手术应激 的定量标志物。
