Inflammatory markers in the early postoperative period in patients who underwent total hip replacement with long-standing trochanter fractures of the femur

Rationale: In order to predict postoperative infectious complications in patients and their prevention, it is very important to study the markers of inflammation when performing total hip replacement with long-standing trochanter fractures of the femur. Objective: Study of the inflammation markers dynamics in patients with total hip arthroplasty and old trochanteric fractures in the postoperative period. Methods: clinical, laboratory, ELISA, statistics. Results: In patients with postoperative complications elevated levels of C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and pro-inflammatory cytokines are recorded. Conclusion: As a result of the studies, it was revealed that the risk factors for the development of postoperative complications are advanced and senile age, comorbid disease and smoking. Elevated levels of C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, leukocytosis and serum IL-6 may be regarded as significant predictors of inflammatory events in the postoperative period. High levels of IL-8 in the blood suggestive of the manifestations of infectious complications.
