  1. 16. Psychological distress and contentment after primary total knee replacement

    Författare :Aamir Mahdi; Per Wretenberg; Maria Hälleberg-Nyman; Olof Sköldenberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anxiety; contentment; depression; discontentment; psychological distress; patients’ expectations; total knee replacement;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to study patients with anxiety/depression symptoms before and after primary total knee replacement, particularly in terms of improvements in patients-reported outcomes, and particularly among those who were discontent with the surgery. This could hopefully improve patients' contentment after TKR. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to report on the results after aortic surgery on thoracic aneurysms and dissections and to study the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the follow-up after aortic surgery. In this thesis, 203 patients ungergoing surgery on the thoracic aorta between 1977 and 2000 are included. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Aortic Valve Replacement: The Influence of Prosthesis-Patient Mismatch for Left Ventricular Remodeling, Cardiac Function and Survival

    Författare :Shahab Nozohoor; Thoraxkirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prosthesis-Patient Mismatch; Left Ventricular Remodeling; Survival; Aortic valve replacement;

    Sammanfattning : The best valve substitute for aortic valve replacement (AVR) in terms of hemodynamic performance, durability, incidence of complications, and survival remains the subject of much debate. It has been suggested that valve performance is influenced by the potentially modifiable variable prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM). LÄS MER

  5. 19. On the validity of the results from the Swedish National Total Hip Arthroplasty register

    Författare :Peter Söderman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Swedish National Total Hip Arthroplasty Register; validation; hip replacement; outcome;

    Sammanfattning : The Swedish National Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) Register contains more than 200 000 primary and secondary hip replacements. The failure end-point definition is revision. The aim of this thesis was to validate the results presented by the register and to study the outcome of hip replacement surgery in Sweden. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Thoracic Aortic Surgery : Epidemiology, Outcomes, and Prevention of Cerebral Complications

    Författare :Christian Olsson; Stefan Thelin; Jan van der Linden; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Surgery; Aorta; Thoracic; Aortic aneurysms; Aortic disease; Cardiovascular surgical procedures; Epidemiology; Registries; Treatment outcome; Survival analysis; Cerebral infarction; Near-infrared spectroscopy; Quality of life; Perfusion; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : The mortality of thoracic aortic diseases (mainly aneurysms and dissections) is high, even with surgical treatment. Epidemiology and long-term outcomes are incompletely investigated. Stroke is a major complication contributing to mortality, morbidity, and possibly to reduced quality of life. LÄS MER
