To evaluate if Hounsfield units (HU) measured on preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans at the anatomic neck of proximal humerus correlates with intraoperative findings "thumb test" in assessment bone quality shoulder arthroplasty patients.Primary total and reverse patients from 2019-2022 an available CT scan operative were prospectively enrolled a single center 3 surgeons who perform arthroplasty. The was performed intraoperatively; positive test signified "good bone." Demographic...
Meniscal injuries are an extremely common cause of knee pain. repairs performed with concomitant anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction appear to heal at a higher rate than meniscal in isolation. This may be due part the release marrow elements into and time repair. In cases isolated repair, some orthopedic surgeons use microfracture joint as adjunct enhance healing. study evaluated rates tear healing or without performance goat (Capra hircus) model. Forty castrated young adult male goats...
The purpose of this study was to (1) determine the incidence a research gap year (RGY) in orthopaedic residency applicants at single institution over seven-year span; (2) compare applicant characteristics between who did RGY with those not, and (3) report variables associated match success for applicants.Applicants reported taking out from medical school pursue on their Electronic Residency Application Service 2014 2015 through 2020 2021 were reviewed.A strong positive correlation noted...
The rate of preoperative osteoporosis in lower extremity arthroplasty is 33%. prevalence shoulder patients inadequately studied. purpose this study was to (1) determine the undergoing elective arthroplasty, (2) report percentage having dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) testing before surgery, and (3) who have been prescribed medications within 6 months or after surgery.This retrospective case series included all adults aged 50 years older underwent at a single tertiary care center over...
BackgroundBlue light therapy (BLT) is a Food and Drug Administration cleared modality used in dermatology as an effective treatment of acne. The primary purpose this study to determine if there are dose-dependent antimicrobial effects BLT against Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes).MethodsA known strain C. was grown on chocolate agar controlled laboratory environment under anaerobic conditions for 1 week. After week, 2-3 colonies were isolated transferred broth medium incubate 2 or 7 days. Broth...
This study attempted to identify and characterize bacteria present on shared-use protective lead shielding garments worn in the operating room. Those at authors’ institution were collected swabbed designated 5×5-cm areas. Swabs sent clinical laboratory for bacterial isolation identification. All isolates identified using standard microbiological methods. Isolates then underwent antimicrobial susceptibility testing as per hospital procedures. Of 182 total swabs, isolated only 5 (2.7%)...
This study evaluates the exposure of distal humerus articular surface obtained using a triceps hemi-peel approach versus triceps-flexor carpi ulnaris (TRIFCU) approach. Twelve cadaveric upper extremity specimens were dissected lateral-to-medial modification TRIFCU to elbow. After completing exposure, visible border was marked with permanent ink pen. The dissection continued complete standard approach, and again marked. elbow disarticulated, calibrated digital images taken quantify humeral...
To (1) report the percentage of patients undergoing rotator cuff repair (RCR) who were appropriately screened with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry testing prior to surgery, if indicated, and (2) determine properly prescribed osteoporosis medications within 6 months surgery.Consecutive aged 50 years or older underwent elective RCR at a single tertiary-care center over 1-year period reviewed. Fracture risk was estimated using Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) without bone mineral density. The U.S....
Introduction : Surgical treatment of distal humerus fractures can lead to numerous complications. Data suggest that the number screws in (articular) segment may be associated with complication rate. The purpose this study is evaluate association between a and rate for surgical fractures. We hypothesize articular AO/OTA C-type treated open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) will inversely proportional Methods performed single-center retrospective cohort 27 patients who underwent ORIF at least...
In orthopaedic surgery, limited research is available addressing how attire, including white coats (WC) and feminine attire such as skirts, affects patient perceptions. It unknown surgeon appearance associated with identification a perception of clinical skills, nor whether this differs between male female surgeons.An image-based survey was offered to all adult patients in four surgeons' sport medicine or foot ankle clinics. Respondents viewed 10 photos models varying identified that...
Partial-thickness rotator cuff tears (PTRCTs), often considered less severe than full-thickness (FTRCTs), can be equally symptomatic. Despite the prevalence of PTRCTs, scholarly attention has predominantly focused on FTRCTs, resulting in a relative neglect PTRCTs. This study aimed to assess incidence surgical repairs for PTRCTs United States (U.S.) using Nationwide Ambulatory Surgery Sample (NASS) database and delineate practice patterns among group American Shoulder Elbow Surgeons (ASES)...
Orthopedic fellowship positions continue to be increasingly competitive, with most orthopedic residency graduates pursuing after completion of residency. Shoulder and elbow training represents an competitive relatively smaller cohort applicants than other subspecialties; there are only 29 programs a total 40 offered positions. The purpose this survey is identify rank factors considered important by shoulder directors when identifying potential candidates.A web-based was emailed all...
