AbstractBased on an adaptive algorithm model, this study proposed 2 special model structures of randomized fusion and an optimized convolution kernel and use it for image recognition. The adaptive algorithm model combined image-guided electroacupuncture with a continuous femoral nerve block to prevent deep vein thrombosis after total knee arthroplasty. A total of 200 patients after total knee arthroplasty were randomly divided into 4 groups. We assessed the incidence of postoperative lower limb deep vein thrombosis and platelet count before and after surgery. Electroacupuncture combined with continuous femoral nerve block can reduce the incidence of deep vein thrombosis and has obvious advantages in multimode prevention. The effective analgesia provided by electroacupuncture combined with continuous femoral nerve block relieved postoperative pain. It also enabled patients to participate in joint movement and lower limb muscle strength training as soon as possible, which not only is conducive to postoperative functional recovery, but also reduces the body stress response triggered by pain and the hypercoagulable state. Moreover, electroacupuncture stimulation of electroacupuncture points can reduce the inflammatory edema associated with surgery, improve blood circulation at the surgical site, and activate the body's anticoagulation mechanism. This study provides new ideas and references for formulating multimode prevention and control strategies.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
