Intelligent Algorithm-Based Ultrasound for Evaluating the Anesthesia and Nursing Intervention for Elderly Patients with Femoral Intertrochanteric Fractures

This study was aimed to explore the anesthesia, analgesia, and nursing intervention scheme for elderly patients undergoing the operation of intertrochanteric fracture of femur under the guidance of ultrasound optimized by blind deblurring algorithm. Fifty elderly patients undergoing intertrochanteric femoral surgery were randomly enrolled into control group (tracheal intubation intravenous anesthesia + routine nursing) and experimental group (ultrasound-guided nerve block anesthesia + comprehensive nursing based on blind deblurring algorithm), with 25 patients in each group. The effects of anesthesia and recovery were evaluated in the two groups. The results showed that the image evaluation index of blind deblurring algorithm was superior to other algorithms (BM3D, DnCNN, and Red-Net), which improved the quality of ultrasound imaging and was more conducive to intraoperative anesthesia guidance. At the beginning and end of intubation and operation, the fluctuation range of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group. The maintenance time of sensory and motor anesthesia block (7.53 ± 1.47 h, 5.45 ± 1.36 h) was longer than that of control group (3.38 ± 1.26 h, 3.02 ± 1.31 h). Visual Analogue Scale/Score (VAS) scores at 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h after surgery were lower than those in the control group. The effective rate of nursing and the incidence of complications (92% and 8%) were better than the control group (80% and 16%), and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In summary, the optimization effect of blind deblurring algorithm was good, which can improve the quality of ultrasound-guided surgery and help in the smooth implementation of surgery. Moreover, nerve block anesthesia and comprehensive nursing were of great value in postoperative analgesia and recovery of patients.
