A Myth Orthopaedic Implant Pain in Cold Weather
Sponsor: Ankara Etlik City Hospital
Summary
In daily practice, the investigators frequently hear patients with orthopaedic implants complaining of implant pain and coldness in the implant area in cold weather in outpatient clinics. However, when the literature is examined, there is only one study examining the effect of cold weather on the implant and only the pain in cold weather was questioned in this study. In this study, the investigators aimed to obtain clearer information by comparing the effect of cold air on orthopaedic implants with hot air with many parameters.
