Knee laxity increases with medial meniscectomy in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-reconstructed knees; however, the biomechanical effect of an additional lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) is unknown.The purpose this study was to determine kinematic a LET knees that underwent combined ACL reconstruction (ACL-R) and partial meniscus posterior horn (MMPH) meniscectomy. It hypothesized addition would reduce ACL-reconstructed knee.Controlled laboratory study.Ten fresh-frozen human...
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair is an alternative to reconstruction; however, suture tape support may be necessary achieve adequate outcomes.To investigate the influence of augmentation (STA) proximal ACL on knee kinematics and evaluate effect 2 flexion angles fixation.Controlled laboratory study.Fourteen cadaveric knees were tested using a 6 degrees freedom robotic testing system under anterior tibial (AT) load, simulated pivot-shift (PS) internal rotation (IR) external loads....
Abstract Background The “Stop the Bleed” (STB) campaign has achieved remarkable results since it was launched in 2016, but there is no report on teaching of an STB course combined with a trauma patient simulator. This study proposes “problem-, team-, and evidence-based learning” (PTEBL) method Caesar (a simulator) based compares its effect to that traditional among outstanding doctoral candidates training haemostasis skills. Method Seventy-eight candidate program students five eight-year...
For combined reconstruction of both the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior (PCL), there is no consensus regarding which graft should be tensioned fixed first.The purpose this study was to determine sequence tensioning fixation better restores normal knee kinematics. The hypothesis that ACL-first would more closely restore kinematics, force, tibiofemoral orientation in neutral (resting) position compared with PCL-first fixation.Controlled laboratory study.A total 15 unpaired human...

Abstract Background: The “Stop Bleed” (STB) campaign has achieved remarkable results since it launched in 2016, but there is no report on the application of a STB course combined with trauma patient simulator. This study proposes “problem-, team-, and evidence-based learning” (PTEBL) teaching method Caesar (trauma simulator) based course, compares its effect traditional outstanding doctoral candidates training hemostasis skills. Method: Seventy-eight program students (five-years eight-years)...
