Complications of anesthesia; osteoarticular diseases
Abstract :
[en] Anesthesia in patients with either treated or untreated osteoarttcular disorders
poses a number of specific problems.
The authors deal with risks resulting from mechanical deformities produced
by these disorders, by the involvement of a large number of functional systems,
by changes in the immune status of such patients and by alterations in the
reactions of arthritic patients resulting from prior or concurrent treatments.
The authors emphasise the crucial points which require evaluation and observation
before and during anesthesia
