Effect of using tourniquet on the intensity of postoperative pain in trauma surgery

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine whether application of a pneumatic tourniquet on an extremity during trauma surgery had any effect on the intensity of postoperative pain or not. On the upper extremity, closed radius and/or ulna diaphysis fractures and on the lower extremity, closed malleolar fractures were chosen as a model. The patients were randomly divided into two groups as "tourniquet" and "non-tourniquet". It was found that to lessen the severity of pain following the surgical treatment of the upper or lower extremity fractures, tourniquet use had to be avoided in the patients especially who were older than 30 years and less significantly who were male. A better postoperative analgesia was obtained in the patients whom we did not use tourniquet. The preferred tourniquet use time that caused slightly lesser pain was less than one hour. It was concluded that as tourniquet use during trauma surgery might cause several intraoperative and postoperative complications, a final decision had to be made after the patient's status was carefully evaluated.
