DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUE FOR ISCHEMIA OF FEMORAL STUMP

摘要

FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: technique involves transcutaneous oximetry of a femoral stump by placing sensors into a retaining ring on the skin on the anterior and posterior surface of the femoral stump in a projection of a femoral bone at 5 cm from a postoperative scar or wound edges at the end face of the femoral end face in the front plane. Transcutaneous oxygen tension (TavO) is measured 15-20 minutes later. If TavOis 20 mm Hg or less in both points of placing the electrodes, ischemia of femoral stump is diagnosed.EFFECT: method enables increasing the diagnostic reliability in dynamic case follow-up that is ensured by measuring TavOin well-shaped anatomic orientation points.2 ex
