Abstract
Serum C-reactive protein(CRP) levels and erythrocyte sedimentation rates(ESR) were measured in 46 patients treated with uncomplicated primary hip replacements, 39 total tip replacements and 7 bipolar hip replacements. In uncomplicated primary hip replacements, ESR levels were slightly elevated preoperatively and were variable postoperatively. But CRP was normal before surgery and elevated in postoperative course, but back to normal within three weeks in most cases. Early success of hip arthroplasty is indicated by normalization of CRP within three weeks, regardless of ESR. Since ESR seems to react somewhat differently from the CRP, both methods are useful in the monitoring of complications after hip arthroplasty.
1991년 7월 부터 1992년 9월까지 영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원 정형외과에서 인공고관절치 환술받은 46명의 환자에서 수술전후에 측정한 ESR과 CRP의 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 수술전 ESR 평균치는 28.8mm/hour이었고, 수술후 1, 2, 3주에는 각각 69.9mm/hour, 57.7 mm/hour, 41.4mm/hour로 점점 감소하는 경향을 보였으나, 정상치보다는 높게 나타났다. 2. 수술전 CRP는 3례를 제외하고 모두 정상치를 보였고, 수술후에는 곧 상승하여 수술후 1주, 2주, 3주의 평균치는 각각 5.82mg/dL, 1.45mg/dL, 0.74mg/dL였다. 수술 3주후에는 2례를 제외하고 모두 정상으로 돌아왔다. 3. 골시멘트와 수혈여부는 수술후 ESR, CRP치의 변화에 유의한 차이를 주지 않았다.
