"VÄRDEFULLA PERSPEKTIV PÅ HÖFTLEDSOPERATIONER" Läkartidningen 2021

Vad innebär en höftprotesoperation, hur kan man förbereda sig på bästa sätt och hur ser rehabiliteringen ut efteråt?

Vi sökte svaret på den frågan för sent, efter att John opererats och drabbats av komplikationer. Att vara välinformerad för att kunna vara delaktig i sin egen vård är viktigt och kunskap ger trygghet. Därav denna bok. Som läsare får du följa John genom hans operation och rehabilitering samtidigt som du får ta del av råd och fakta – före, under och efter en höftledsoperation som görs på grund av artros. Du får även läsa om Anders Jelander som sprungit 75 maraton med sina nya höftleder och om Maria Ahlberg, en alldeles ”vanlig” höftprotespatient.

Din nya höftled vänder sig till dig som lever med artrossmärta och inväntar operation, men också till dig som fått en ny höftprotes och söker mer information. Boken kan med fördel även läsas av anhöriga eller vårdpersonal som vill ha inblick i patientperspektivet. Boken är faktagranskad av Olof Sköldenberg, Professor i Ortopedi.

Sagt om boken: 

"Boken tillför ett värdefullt perspektiv som inte alltid förmedlas via sjukvården och ger läsaren en mer nyanserad bild av vad en höftprotesoperation innebär och medför, både ur positiv och ur negativ synvinkel. Även om texten huvudsakligen handlar om en person är den tillräckligt bred för att de flesta läsare ska kunna känna igen sig. Boken »Din nya höftled« har alla förutsättningar att fylla ett behov av nyanserad och saklig information ur ett patient- och närståendeperspektiv på höftprotesoperation.” Pelle Gustafson, docent och medicinsk redaktör, Läkartidningen 2021

”Detta är den första boken som tar ett samlat grepp om vad höftledsartros är, hur den utvecklas och behandlas, när det är dags för operation och vad efterföljande rehabilitering innebär. Om den här boken hade funnits då jag sköt på operationen på grund av rädsla hade jag blivit modigare och vågat ta steget till höftledsbyte mycket snabbare.” Gunvor Maazon, bibliotekarie och ”dubbelhippie” sedan nov 2019

”Mycket bra och välskriven bok som alla med höftledartros kan ha stor glädje av.” Per Wickman, höftledsopererad och patientföreträdare i NAG (nationell arbetsgrupp) för höftledsartros

”Boken innehåller viktiga fakta och högst läsvärda personliga berättelser, för alla med artros som vill bli opererade eller som har gjort en höftledsoperation.” Lotta Frithiof, journalist och nyopererad höftprotespatient

Under senare år har behandlingen av sjukdomar och skador i rörelseapparaten fortsatt att utvecklas i snabb takt. Ny metodik, bättre operationsinstrument och en enorm utveckling inom radiologi och farmakologi har givit möjligheter till effektivare behandling.

Boken Ortopedi är en etablerad lärobok som pedagogiskt beskriver och förklarar skador, sjukdomstillstånd, läkningsstörningar och missbildningar hos barn, vuxna och äldre. Tyngdpunkten ligger på diagnostik och behandling vilket gör den mycket användbar som praktisk handledning. Boken är mycket rikt illustrerad med ett stort urval relevanta illustrationer och kliniskt bildmaterial.

Boken är främst avsedd för grund- och specialistutbildningen av läkare, ortopeder, allmänläkare, allmänkirurger, idrottsläkare och barnläkare, men är även användbar för annan sjukvårdspersonal som möter patienter med ortopediska besvär.

Om författarnaBokens huvudförfattare Urban Lindgren och Olle Svensson är professorer och överläkare vid Karolinska Universitetssjukhuset Huddinge respektive Norrlands universitetssjukhus, Umeå.

Akut ortopedi beskriver hur man handlägger patienter som kommer till akutmottagningen med skador eller sjukdomstillstånd i rörelseapparaten. För varje tillstånd beskrivs kortfattat vad läsaren ska och kan göra själv, men också när det är lämpligt att konsultera en mer erfaren kollega.

Boken inleds med att kort beskriva undersökningsmetodik, preoperativ bedömning, ortopediska skador och smärttillstånd samt praktiska råd rörande smärtlindring, injektioner/punktioner och gipsteknik. Därefter följer huvudavsnittet som omfattar alla de skador, smärttillstånd och infektioner som kan drabba respektive kroppsdel. Boken avslutas med ett avsnitt om posttraumatiska och postoperativa tillstånd.

Akut ortopedi är skriven främst för medicinstudenter, AT-läkare och nyblivna jourhavande i ortopedi, men är också lämplig för övrig personal som är verksam på landets akutmottagningar. Boken vänder sig också till läkare och sjuksköterskor inom primärvården liksom till sjukgymnaster och arbetsterapeuter som arbetar med patienter med ortopediska besvär.

Lena Hultman är överläkare i ortopedi på akutmottagningen på Universitetssjukhuset i Linköping. Hon har lång erfarenhet av att handleda yngre kollegor i akut ortopedi.

Johannes Järhult är professor i kirurgi vid Linköpings universitet och överläkare vid Länssjukhuset Ryhov i Jönköping.

"Det är en alldeles utmärkt bok för den målgrupp som avses, exempelvis yngre läkare under jourtjänstgöring. Den innehåller mängder med handfasta råd, det är mycket lätt att hitta önskad information och här finns även ett utförligt register. Boken kan varmt rekommenderas."ur BTJ häftepos 11104264, lektör Lars Svensson

Management of Periprosthetic Joint Infections (PJIs): Management of PJIs discusses periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), a fairly rare occurrence that is nonetheless one of the most serious complications in joint replacement surgery. Intricate interactions between the pathogen, the host, and the implant can result in PJIs which are not only physically devastating for the patient, but also financially crippling for health authorities and insurance companies.

Actions taken to minimize the risk of PJIs can be extremely challenging for the orthopaedic community. Consequently, new research, which is detailed in this comprehensive book, is being undertaken to minimize and manage these challenging infections.
