What examinations should Guangzhou Heping Orthopaedic Hospital do before bone grinding surgery?
Guangzhou Heping Orthopaedic Hospital is a medical institution specializing in disease diagnosis and treatment and rehabilitation services, with advanced technical equipment and professional medical team. Before bone grinding surgery, the hospital usually requires patients to carry out a series of examinations. These examinations are designed to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the operation. The following is a detailed introduction to the examinations that need to be carried out before the bone grinding operation from four aspects.
1. Preoperative physical examination
Preoperative physical examination is one of the indispensable examinations before bone grinding surgery. The hospital will send a professional doctor to conduct a comprehensive physical examination to check whether various physical indicators are normal, so as to determine whether the patient is suitable for surgery. This includes measuring height, weight, blood pressure, heart rate, lung function, etc. If the patient has other potential diseases or medical history, the doctor may require further examinations, such as ECG, liver function, kidney function and other related examinations.
In the preoperative physical examination, the doctor will also ask the patient's medical history and medication in detail. In particular, doctors should be informed whether they have allergies, drug allergy history and the drugs they are using, which is crucial to the safety of surgery and postoperative rehabilitation.
2. Imaging examination
Imaging examination plays an important role before bone grinding operation. The most commonly used one is X-ray inspection, through which the shape and structure of bones can be clearly observed. This is of great significance to the preoperative evaluation and the formulation of the surgical plan.
In addition, the hospital will also require patients to carry out CT scanning, so that the skull structure can be observed more intuitively through 3D images. Sometimes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is also required to more comprehensively assess the condition of bones and surrounding tissues.
3. Coagulation function test
Bone grinding operation is a kind of operation requiring local anesthesia, so it is very necessary to check the blood coagulation function. The hospital will conduct a comprehensive coagulation function examination, such as prothrombin time, international standardized ratio, platelet count, etc. These tests can assess the patient's ability to coagulate blood to ensure that serious bleeding problems do not occur during surgery.
If the patient has taken anticoagulant drugs for a long time or is using anticoagulant drugs, the doctor may recommend stopping the drugs at an appropriate time before surgery to avoid the risk of bleeding during surgery.
4. Psychological and Counseling Assessment
Bone grinding surgery is a surgical operation, which may have an important impact on the appearance and life of patients. In order to ensure that patients have a rational decision and adapt to the adjustment after surgery, hospitals usually arrange psychological and counseling assessments.
During this assessment, doctors will fully communicate with patients, understand their expectations and ideas for surgery, and provide relevant suggestions. This will help patients better understand the risks of surgery and the rehabilitation process after surgery, so as to make wise decisions.
Summary
Before the bone grinding operation, Guangzhou Heping Orthopaedic Hospital will require patients to undergo a series of examinations such as preoperative physical examination, imaging examination, blood coagulation function examination and psychological counseling evaluation. These examinations can comprehensively assess the patient's physical condition, bone structure, blood coagulation function and psychological state to ensure the safety and effectiveness of surgery. Through these examinations, doctors can develop personalized surgical plans and fully communicate with patients, so that patients can understand the risks and consequences of surgery and make wise decisions. Guangzhou Heping Orthopaedic Hospital has rich experience and advanced equipment in bone grinding surgery, providing safe and high-quality medical services for patients.
