Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Objective: To analyze national trends in the management of acute traumatic central cord syndrome. Summary Background Data: Acute syndrome (ATCCS) is most common incomplete spinal injury. Initial involves decompression and stabilization cervical cord. On basis mixed literature regarding operative timing for ATCCS, we aimed to evaluate early, late, delayed surgery over last 5–10 years compare their respective outcomes. Methods: Data were obtained from...
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a rare but potentially lethal complication after orthopaedic foot and ankle surgery. The true incidence of VTE surgery stratified by specific procedure has yet to be examined. purpose this study report the identify risk factors for in large sample patients receiving Methods: In study, we retrospectively analyzed data from National Surgical Quality Improvement Program 2006 2015 files. was calculated 30 surgeries 4 broad types Demographic,...
Pathologic fractures often contribute to adverse events in metastatic bone disease, and prophylactic fixation offers mitigate their effects. This study aims analyze patient selection, complications, in-hospital costs that are associated with compared traditional acute after completed fracture.The Nationwide Inpatient Sample database was queried from 2002 2014 for patients major extremity pathologic fractures. Patients were divided by technique (prophylactic or acute) fracture location (upper...
Objectives: The objective of this study was to describe the anatomic variations in saphenous nerve and risk direct injury greater vein during syndesmotic suture button fixation. Methods: Under fluoroscopic guidance, buttons were placed from lateral medial at 1, 2, 3 cm above tibial plafond on 10 below-knee cadaver leg specimens. distance position each evaluated. Results: mean 7.1 ± 5.6, 6.5 4.6, 6.1 4.2, respectively. Respective rate compression as follows, 20% 1 cm, 2 10% cm. Mean 8.6 7.1,...
Background Tourniquets are commonly used to reduce bleeding intraoperatively during orthopedic surgery. There variable guidelines for ideal tourniquet pressure and duration; the practice of fixed, high pressures remains common. The purpose this study was assess correlation between excessive duration incidence pain in foot ankle surgery patients. Methods A retrospective cohort conducted on 128 patients who underwent with use. Baseline systolic blood (SBP), duration, intraoperative opioid...
(1) Background: Since first approved by the FDA, on-label and off-label usage of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP2) for spinal fusion surgeries has become widespread. While many studies have investigated safety efficacy its use, as well economic impact, few looked at current trends in on- use. The goal this study is to evaluate rhBMP2 use surgery. (2) Methods: A deidentified survey was created electronically distributed members two international spine societies. Surgeons...
Background: Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning is the standard of care for displaced supracondylar humerus fractures (SCHFs). Although operative management SCHFs has achieved good consensus with low complication rates, there remains a paucity literature on postoperative management. We hypothesized that routine office visits after pin removal can safely be avoided in uncomplicated without compromising patient care. Method: A retrospective review was conducted to query electronic...
Introduction Readmission following revision orthopedic surgery imposes tremendous costs due to the increased length of stay, procedure complexity, and surgery. Following total hip arthroplasty, as many one in five patients are readmitted postoperatively. Readmissions cost federal government $17.4 billion annually. The purpose this study was identify risk factors for unplanned readmission arthroplasty. Methods This a retrospective case series review randomized arthroplasties (THA) between...
Talonavicular (TN) fusion using screws dorsomedially and dorsolaterally can cause neurovascular injury. The purpose of our cadaveric study was to evaluate the safety percutaneous screw insertion in relation dorsal structures.Ten fresh-frozen cadaver legs were used for this study. Percutaneous cannulated inserted perform isolated TN arthrodesis. at 3 consistent sites: a "medial screw" dorsomedial navicular where it intersected medial plane first cuneiform, "central edge between intermediate...
