Introduction
The increase in the prevalence of hip osteoarthritis has focused the therapeutic effort on postoperative pain control after hip arthroplasty which has become fundamental pillar in the treatment of this pathology. In this sense, intravenous dexamethasone constitutes an important advance in the control of postoperative pain. However, the ideal dose yet to be established.
Method and materials
In a retrospective study, a total of 19 patients who underwent coxarthrosis by means of total hip arthroplasty were analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups. A group where a dose of dexamethasone prepared at the patient´s weight of 0.15 mg/kg was administered and a control group without administration of corticosteroids. Variables such as the degree of pain according to the visual analogue scale (VAS), opioid consumption and functional tests were analyzed.
Results
The use of dexamethasone did not produce statistically significant results in terms of the degree of pain according to the VAS scale, opioid consumption or functional tests (p>0.05). However, the association between variables allowed us to observe significant differences or with a tendency towards significance between functional tests such as the “Up and Go” test at 24 hours (p=0.037) and 48 hours (p=0.063) and the degree of pain according to the VAS scale at 48 horas (p=0.053) compared to the VAS scale at the first consultation.
Conclusions
The use of dexamethasone in the postoperative hip arthroplasty did not show an improvement in the degree of postoperative pain according to the VAS scale or in muscle function. However, the downward trend was evidenced in the consumption of opioids, analytical parameters such as C-reactive protein and the time of the “Up and Go” test was evident, without reaching statistical significance. No significant differences were observed in terms of adverse effects or complications in the dexamethasone group. The parameters most related to pain control at the first consultation were the degree of pain according to the VAS scale at 48 hours and the “Up and Go” test at 24 hours.
