Objective: To observe and analyze the perioperative nursing effect of plasma radiofrequency ablation for treatment of lumbar disc herniation. Methods: A total of 100 patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation received from October 2017 to October 2020 were selected and randomly divided into two groups with 50 cases in each group. The control group received the conventional nursing model and the experimental group received the comprehensive nursing model. The two groups of nursing care were compared on satisfaction, SDS and SAS scores before and after treatment, VAS score and JOA score before and after treatment, and treatment effect. Results: The nursing satisfaction of the experimental group, SDS and SAS scores before and after treatment, VAS score and JOA score before and after treatment, and the treatment effect were better than those of the control group. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The comprehensive nursing model has a significant effect on the perioperative nursing of the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation by plasma radiofrequency ablation. More popularization and application will help improve the treatment effect.

Beim Menschen ist chronischer neuropathischer Schmerz eine häufige Komplikation nach Rückenmarksinsulten, ca. 50–80 % der Patienten entwickeln eine derartige Dolenz. Für den Hund liegen diesbezüglich keine Studiendaten vor, vor allem aufgrund der herausfordernden Evaluierung insbesondere von neuropathischen Schmerzzuständen. Diese Studie prüfte die Verlässlichkeit einer Messung von spinalen mechanisch ausgelösten sensorischen Schwellenwerten (mechanical sensory threshholds, MSTs) und verglich die MSTs gesunder Hunde mit denen von Hunden nach operativer Hemilaminektomie aufgrund einer thorakolumbaren intervertebralen Diskherniation (IVDH).

Abstract Thoracolumbar intervertebral disc herniation is a common neurologic disease presented to the small-animal practitioner. The use of methylprednisolone sodium succinate (MPSS) as an adjunct to surgical decompression in cases of acute spinal cord injury following intervertebral disc extrusion is controversial. A prospective study was undertaken to compare the preoperative use of MPSS and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in 40 chondrodystrophic dogs presenting with similar signs and undergoing spinal decompressive surgery. Twenty dogs received MPSS and 20 had NSAIDs administered preoperatively. Dogs were administered with either MPSS intravenously 20 minutes before surgery (30 mg/kg) or NSAID (meloxicam 0.2mg/kg or carprofen 4 mg/kg) subcutaneously 20 minutes before surgery. Dogs were evaluated by neurologic examination of gait 24 hours postoperatively, at time of discharge and then at 8 weeks. The neurological recovery were similar in both groups, but the frequency of side effects such as vomiting (MPSS group: 90% versus NSAIDs group: 55%), and anorexia within the first three days (present in all 20 dogs pretreated with MPSS) was significantly different, with complications being more prevalent in the MPSS group. Side effects were significantly more evident with MPSS treatment group –including vomiting and anorexia during the first 3 days after surgery– than with NSAID treatment group, with a neurological recovery similar in both groups.
