what is a bursa
synovial fluid filled sac found between moving structures in a joint
aim is to reduce wear and tear on those structures
4 bursae located in the knee
supra patellar
prepatellar
infra patellar
semimemmbranosus
suprapatellar bursa
extension of the synovial cavity of the knee
located between the quadriceps femurs and the femur
prepatellar bursa
found between apex of the patella and the skin
infra patellar bursa
split into deep and superficial
deep bursa lies between tibia and patellar ligament
superficial lies between patellar ligament and skin
semimembranosus bursa
located posteriorly in the knee joint
between semimembranosus muscle and medial head of the gastrocnemius
what does NSAID stand for
non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
examples of NSAID’s
aspirin
naproxen
ibruprofen
moa of NSAID’s
inhibit COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes which convert arachidonic acid into prostanoids
to produce prostaglandins, thromboxane and prostacyclin
COX-1 of NSAID’s
GIT effects
preserves integrity of gastric mucosa
COX-2 of NSAID’s
inducible form
predominates at sites of inflammation
stimulates prostaglandin formation
what are adverse effects of NSAID’s caused by
COX-1 pathways
how are NSAID’s administered
orally
topical gel
parenterally
suppositories
when are NSAID’s given
for mild-moderate pain as they have analgesic effects
inflammation
and pyretic
when should you avoid NSAID’s
if severe Renal impairment
heart or liver failure
NSAID’s side effects
GI toxicity
renal impairment
increased risk of cardiovascular events
hypersensitivity reactions
fluid retention
how can you gastroprotect when giving NSAID’s
low dose NSAID
standard dose of PPI
types of prostaglandin
E2, PGE2
D2, PGD2
F2 alpha, PGF2 alpha
prostacyclin, PGI2
prostaglandin function
inhibits gastric acid secretion, E2
maintains renal blood flow, E2
inflammation, E2 and D2
pain, E2
inhibits platelet aggregation, E2
