Detailed Description

Aim of study : Assessement of neutrophil activation during ischemia reperfusion associated with tourniquet use for total knee arthroplasty. This activation was compared in a group of patient scheduled for spinal anesthesia and for sevoflurane anesthesia This activation was assessed by plasma myeloperoxidase and elastase measurements in four consecutive blood samples during and after surgery (before surgical incision and 1, 3, 24 hours following tourniquet release.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in plasmatic concentration of myeloperoxidase and elastaseBefore surgical incision then 3 and 24 hours after tourniquet release

Biological measurement of changes in plasmatic concentration of myeloperoxidase and elastase from preoperative values to 3 and 24 hours after tourniquet release.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in plasmatic concentration of endothelial biomarkersBefore surgical incision then 3 and 24 hours after tourniquet release

Biological measurement of changes in plasmatic concentration of syndecan-1, soluble thrombomodulin, soluble E-selectin and VEGF from preoperative values to 3 and 24 hours after tourniquet release.
