Setting: A rehabilitation institute for the treatment of neurological and orthopaedic gait disorders. Methods: 12 patients (4 women and 8 males) subjected to lower limb amputation and admitted according to the principles of inclusion criteria of the TRIA-MF protocol at the Rehabilitation Department of the Clinical Institute Città di Brescia were recruited in this study. All patients were included in an integrated and task-specifi c management protocol of the amputee, which allowed to follow the rehabilitation process from amputation to the fi nal restoration, for a period of 6 months for each patient. Patients were evaluated 5 times during the study, collecting their degree of pain (VAS), their independence profi le (Barthel Index) and the cirtometry of their amputation stump.

The word “amputation” is used for the irst time by Seneca in the 1st century A.D. This word refers to an agricultural kind of terminology; infact it means “cut off all around”, from the Greek form “amphi” (around/on both sides) and from the Latin form “putare” (cut off/trim) [1]. A person needs an amputation for different causes, but in the occidental countries we can recognize six main causes: a. systemic diseases like peripheral obliterative arteriopathy (3-5% in people between 50/60 years of age, and 20% in people over-75) and diabetic vasculopathy; b. infections; c. traumas; d. tuberculosis; e. malign tumors; f. lower limb gangrenes [2]. In the last 18 years, in Italy there were 4877 arteriopathic patients who needed a lower limb amputation, as a consequence of their illness. 66% of them were major amputations, of which 73% trans-femoral amputees while only 34% were partial foot or toe amputations. During the same year in Italy there were a total number of 13.181 amputations both lower and upper limb, and a total of 5.359 elderly people amputations. Male elderly people have a prevalence of 93.5% every 100.000 inhabitants, almost twice as much as female population, with a prevalence of 55.9% every 100.000 inhabitants. The main period of italian hospitalization for any lower limb amputation is about 20 days, and 23 days for major amputations [3]. In Europe diabetic management costs are various: from 1.305 €/year in Spain, to 3.576 €/year in Germany. In Italy the main cost is about 2.990 €/year, for a national expenditure of 5 billion euros every year [4-6]. 60% of this expenditure is caused by in-hospital care, other for ambulatorial cares and drugs. In 2009, 105.000 recovery for diabetes were needed, for an in-hospital period of 9 days. Amputation is a major surgical intervention, that has an enormous, both physical and psychological, impact on the patient’s life. Amputation can generate different emotions. Some of them can be useful and constructive, like relief, hope or euphoria. Other are very negative, such as rage, sadness, rejection, anxiety distress, uncertain, vulnerability and feeling of mutilation. All these feelings are very common for every disabling illness, but they are stronger for amputees. Amputation determinates an enormous alteration between body image and the true body, an unbearable loss. Even if a little percentage of all amputees become chronically depressed, it is very important to early treat any psychological dif iculties, because they can negatively affect the rehabilitation process [7-10]. The main goals during the immediate postoperative phase relate to wound healing, pain control, forming of the amputation stump and early mobilization. A correct stump management starts after the operation and it’s the main goal during the irst two weeks before the provisory prosthesis use. Stump management concerns wound healing, edema reduction and contracture prevention. These early interventions are essential for a correct and functional prosthesis use. In this process it is necessary to correctly educate the patient to a correct stump care. After the amputation the stump presents an edema. This is caused by a vascular and lymphatic alteration, due to the surgical operation. In trans-tibial amputations, edema can negatively affect wound healing, because of an increased pressure in the stump that can increase tension on the suture, with rare skin necrosis [7,11-13]. When the drainage is removed, it’s important to start the process of edema reduction. More recent soft silicon liner are used for postoperative edema reduction. These liners produce a uniform compression that shapes the stump, avoiding pear-shaping or not coniform or cylindrical shapes. A structured multidisciplinary team is very important during every phase of the amputation process. The guidelines suggest that this team should be composed by the surgeon, the rehabilitation physician, the anesthesiologist, the nurses, the physiotherapist and, if possible, the orthotic technician or the prosthetist. Depending to the circumstances the occupational therapist, the healthcare psychologist, the activity coordinator, the social worker, the dietician, the pastoral cares can be involved too. A good communicative team guarantees a greater tranquility for the patient, thanks to more homogenous information, that is already discussed between the clinicians. Every change in the treatment must be explained and discussed with the patient, in order to reach the objectives better suiting the patient’s future needs [14-17].

摘要

1001024 TRIA-MF方案作为下肢截肢者义肢使用前后综合治疗和疗效评估的创新工具发表:2019年1月18日002简介截肢是一项外科技术,历史上一直在使用。“截肢”这个词在公元1世纪由塞内加首次使用。这个词指的是一种农业术语;事实上,它的意思是“四周被切断”,来自希腊语形式“amphi”(周围/两边)和拉丁语形式“putare”(切断/修剪)[1]。一个人需要截肢有不同的原因,但在西方国家,我们可以确定六个主要原因:A .全身性疾病,如外周闭塞性动脉病变(50 - 60岁人群中占3-5%,75岁以上人群中占20%)和糖尿病血管病变;b .感染;c .创伤;d .肺结核;E.恶性肿瘤;F.下肢坏疽;在过去的18年里,意大利有4877名动脉病变患者需要截肢,因为他们的疾病。其中大截肢者占66%,经股截肢者占73%,部分足或趾截肢者仅占34%。同年,意大利下肢和上肢截肢总数为13.181例,老年人截肢总数为5.359例。男性老年人的患病率为每10万居民93.5%,几乎是女性人口的两倍,每10万居民患病率为55.9%。意大利任何下肢截肢的主要住院时间约为20天,大截肢的住院时间约为23天。在欧洲,糖尿病管理费用各不相同:从西班牙的1.305欧元/年到德国的3.576欧元/年。在意大利,主要费用约为2990欧元/年,而国家每年的支出为50亿欧元[4-6]。其中60%用于住院治疗,其他用于门诊治疗和药品。2009年,需要105,000例糖尿病患者康复,住院时间为9天。截肢是一项重大的外科手术,对患者的生活有巨大的生理和心理影响。截肢可以产生不同的情绪。其中一些可能是有用的和建设性的,比如解脱、希望或欣快感。另一些则是非常消极的,比如愤怒、悲伤、拒绝、焦虑、痛苦、不确定、脆弱和残缺感。所有这些感觉在致残疾病中都很常见,但对截肢者来说更强烈。截肢决定了身体形象和真实身体之间的巨大变化,这是一种无法承受的损失。即使所有截肢者中有一小部分成为慢性抑郁症,早期治疗任何心理困难也是非常重要的,因为它们会对康复过程产生负面影响[7-10]。术后即刻阶段的主要目标涉及伤口愈合、疼痛控制、截肢残端形成和早期活动。正确的残端管理始于手术后,是临时义肢使用前两周的主要目标。残肢处理涉及伤口愈合、减少水肿和预防挛缩。这些早期干预对于义肢的正确和功能性使用至关重要。在此过程中,有必要对患者进行正确的残肢护理教育。截肢后,残肢出现水肿。这是由外科手术引起的血管和淋巴改变引起的。在经胫骨截肢中,水肿会对伤口愈合产生负面影响,因为残端压力增加会增加缝线的张力,并伴有罕见的皮肤坏死[7,11-13]。当引流液被清除后,重要的是开始减少水肿的过程。最近的软硅衬垫用于术后水肿减少。这些衬垫产生均匀的压缩,形成树桩,避免梨形或不一致或圆柱形。一个结构化的多学科团队在截肢过程的每个阶段都非常重要。指南建议这个团队应该由外科医生、康复医师、麻醉师、护士、物理治疗师组成,如果可能的话,还有矫形技术员或修复师。根据具体情况,职业治疗师、保健心理学家、活动协调员、社会工作者、营养师、教牧关怀也可以参与其中。一个良好的沟通团队保证了患者更大的安宁,这要归功于更多同质的信息,这些信息在临床医生之间已经讨论过了。治疗的每一次改变都必须与患者进行解释和讨论,以达到更适合患者未来需求的目标[14-17]。 TRIA-MF方案作为下肢截肢者假体使用前后综合治疗和结果评估的创新工具发表:2019年1月18日,003本研究的目的是确定创新手术工具(TRIA-MF方案)在治疗1中的疗效和结果价值

TRIA-MF protocol as an innovative tool in the comprehensive treatment and outcome evaluation of lower limb amputees before and after prosthesis use
Background: A structured multidisciplinary team is very important during every phase of the amputation process and a good communicative team guarantees a greater tranquility for the patient, thanks to more homogenous information, that is already discussed between the clinicians. Aim: The aim of this study was to defi ne the effi cacy and outcome value of an innovative procedure tool (TRIA-MF protocol) in the treatment of lower limb amputees before and after prosthesis use with the purpose to quantify the quality of the procedure and its economic impact on the clinical patients’ recovery. Setting: A rehabilitation institute for the treatment of neurological and orthopaedic gait disorders. Methods: 12 patients (4 women and 8 males) subjected to lower limb amputation and admitted according to the principles of inclusion criteria of the TRIA-MF protocol at the Rehabilitation Department of the Clinical Institute Città di Brescia were recruited in this study. All patients were included in an integrated and task-specifi c management protocol of the amputee, which allowed to follow the rehabilitation process from amputation to the fi nal restoration, for a period of 6 months for each patient. Patients were evaluated 5 times during the study, collecting their degree of pain (VAS), their independence profi le (Barthel Index) and the cirtometry of their amputation stump. Data on the duration of their admission to the rehabilitation unit, the inter-time between the amputation and acquisition of the temporary prosthesis, and between temporary prosthesis acquisition and the fi nal prosthesis acquisition were also reported. Results: Patients of our sample, at the end of their hospitalization, highlight a signifi cant modifi cation of the temporal data at 1 month and 6 months from their hospital discharge. A statistical signifi cant increase of the Barthel Index value was observed in all patients recruited in this study proceeding from time T0 to time T4; in the same way, a statistical signifi cant decrease of the VAS scale was observed in all patients recruited proceeding from time T0 to time T4; the cirtometry of the amputation stump (expressed in cm) showed a statistical signifi cant decrease in all patients recruited proceeding from time T0 to time T4. We haven’t observed a statistical signifi cant correlation between the duration of the rehabilitative hospitalization and our clinical data; no statistical signifi cant correlation was observed between the amputation stump cirtometry time-related modifi cation and our intertime data. Conclusion: The protocol was found to be a clear and relevant tool with the defi nition of the operational profi le for each single professional fi gure involved; it could also be considered as an optimal tool for coding the management and evaluation of the effectiveness of amputee treatment, with a related high reproducibility, sensitivity and specifi city profi le. In line with the literature, the TRIA-MF protocol has allowed us not to exceed a period of hospitalization in rehabilitation units of more than 23 days, thus showing that it is an excellent tool for optimizing the management costs of the amputee over time.

Even if a little percentage of all amputees become chronically depressed, it is very important to early treat any psychological dif iculties, because they can negatively affect the rehabilitation process [7-10]. The main goals during the immediate postoperative phase relate to wound healing, pain control, forming of the amputation stump and early mobilization. A correct stump management starts after the operation and it’s the main goal during the irst two weeks before the provisory prosthesis use. Stump management concerns wound healing, edema reduction and contracture prevention. These early interventions are essential for a correct and functional prosthesis use. In this process it is necessary to correctly educate the patient to a correct stump care. After the amputation the stump presents an edema. This is caused by a vascular and lymphatic alteration, due to the surgical operation. In trans-tibial amputations, edema can negatively affect wound healing, because of an increased pressure in the stump that can increase tension on the suture, with rare skin necrosis [7,11-13]. When the drainage is removed, it’s important to start the process of edema reduction. More recent soft silicon liner are used for postoperative edema reduction. These liners produce a uniform compression that shapes the stump, avoiding pear-shaping or not coniform or cylindrical shapes. A structured multidisciplinary team is very important during every phase of the amputation process. The guidelines suggest that this team should be composed by the surgeon, the rehabilitation physician, the anesthesiologist, the nurses, the physiotherapist and, if possible, the orthotic technician or the prosthetist. Depending to the circumstances the occupational therapist, the healthcare psychologist, the activity coordinator, the social worker, the dietician, the pastoral cares can be involved too. A good communicative team guarantees a greater tranquility for the patient, thanks to more homogenous information, that is already discussed between the clinicians. Every change in the treatment must be explained and discussed with the patient, in order to reach the objectives better suiting the patient’s future needs [14-17].
