IntroductionDue to their hypocoagulable state on presentation, anticoagulated patients with femoral fragility fractures typically experience delays surgery. There are no large, multicentre studies previously carried out within the United Kingdom (UK) evaluating impact of anticoagulant use in this patient population. This study aimed evaluate current epidemiology and compare perioperative management non-anticoagulated fracture patients.MethodsData was prospectively collected through a...
Abstract Purpose To determine the preferred knee in patients with both one total and unicompartmental arthroplasty. Method Patients simply a (UKA) arthroplasty (TKA) on contralateral sides were retrospectively screened from three senior surgeon’s logs over 15 year period. safe free other diseases to affect gait approached. A of 16 (mean age 70 ± 8) agreed ground reaction force testing an instrumented treadmill at fair pace incline. gender-ratio identical group healthy control subjects 67 10)...
Background and purpose — Cognitive task analysis (CTA) has been used extensively to train pilots in other surgical specialties. However, the use of CTA within orthopedics is its infancy. We evaluated effectiveness a novel tool improve understanding procedural steps antegrade femoral intramedullary nailing.Material methods Design: A modified Delphi technique was generate from 3 expert orthopedic trauma surgeons for nailing. The written audiovisual information combined describe technical...
To evaluate the outcome of a fibular nail in treatment open and closed unstable ankle fractures non-designer centre.In retrospective cohort study, total 39 (14 25 closed) treated with locking were evaluated between 2012 2015 level I major trauma centre. Post-operative radiographs analysed to assess quality reduction (McLennan Ungersma marking system), fracture union complications. Three patient reported scores (Olerud Molander score (OMAS), American Association Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS)...
The length of the femoral stem in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a practical consideration to prevent gait impairment. aim this study was determine if reducing THA would lead impaired biomechanics.Patients uniformly with same brand implant differing lengths (100 mm vs 140-166 mm) were taken retrospectively from prospective trial introducing new short stem. Twelve patients without any other disorder alter besides contralateral tested at gradients and speed on validated instrumented treadmill...
This study examined spinal fractures in patients admitted to a Major Trauma Centre via two independent pathways, major trauma (MT) pathway and standard unscheduled non-major (NMT) pathway. A total of 134 were with fracture over period years; 50% MT the remainder NMT. predominantly male, had mean age 48.8 years (13 95), commonly underwent surgery (62.7%), characteristically cervico-thoracic thoracic regions more than one vertebrae, which radiologically unstable 70%. By contrast, NMT showed an...
A 12 year old girl presented to the emergency department with sudden onset of knee pain. Her parents reported that she had twisted her left while foot was fixed on ground during a game tennis. She hearing “popping” sound followed by immediate pain and swelling in knee. initially unable weight bear. otherwise fit well. born at full term growth been normal date. On examination, swollen but there no joint line tenderness or bony deformity. would not cooperate range motion assessment because...
Bilateral supracondylar stress fractures of the femur in adolescents is a rare presentation. Due to uncommon and non-specific presentation there high risk misdiagnosis thus detrimental complications. We report case bilateral an 18 year old male Somalian ethnic background who presented our institution with right oblique fracture evidence sclerotic edges. The patient was found have symmetrical which missed primary care as result this weakening it ultimately lead fracture. Although are most...
We describe a case of patient on warfarin who developed an extensive haematoma after hip hemiarthroplasty and was successfully treated with embolisation. This highlights the importance regular haematology input, careful consideration suitable surgical approach, close monitoring postoperative wounds in patients emerging role
