Several studies have reported on potential negative predictive factors of functional outcomes after ankle fracture fixation. However, there is minimal patient-reported data long-term outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate risk leading a poor outcome at 2 and 5 years following fixation.We conducted prospective cohort over 5-year period patients undergoing open reduction internal fixation for unstable fractures. Patient demographics, medical comorbidities, pattern, quality were recorded...
The optimal role of nerve conduction studies (NCS) in management carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is unclear, with no standardised guidance. This study aimed to identify variation practice the initial diagnosis patients suspected CTS, alongside evaluating how NCS findings influence clinical decision making.
This article provides a guidance summary for the management of lateral elbow tendinopathy (LET) using Grading Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system rating quality literature grading strength available evidence. The process began by assembling guideline development group volunteers including orthopaedic surgeons, trainees, physiotherapists, rheumatologists, radiologists patients. Virtual meetings were organised to set out explicit PICO questions, specification...
Pediatric supracondylar humeral fracture is com- monly managed using closed reduction and per- cutaneous Kirschner wires pinning. However, there no consensus on optimal pinning configuration in the literature. Our study aims to review our department, correlate results with available literature, suggest basic biomechanics principles. We performed a retrospective children that were treated K-wire for at institution between August 2017 2019. Intra-operative antero-posterior view fluoroscopic...
Objective To undertake a UK-based James Lind Alliance (JLA) Priority Setting Partnership for elbow conditions and be representative of the views patients, carers healthcare professionals (HCPs). This was national collaborative study organised through British Elbow Shoulder Society. Participants Adult HCPs who have managed or experienced conditions, their in UK involved managing conditions. Methods The rigorous JLA priority setting methodology followed. Electronic paper scoping surveys were...
Polyarticular septic arthritis is a rare but life-threatening condition and should not be underestimated. Clinicians look for potential source of infection, either local spread or hematogenous distribution. However, this delay the main treatment arthritis.
Introduction Ankle fractures represent approximately 10% of the fracture workload and are projected to increase due ageing population. We present our 5 years outcome review post-surgical management ankle in a large UK Trauma unit. Methods A total 111 consecutive patients treated for an unstable were entered into database prospectively followed up. Baseline patient characteristics, complications, further intervention including additional surgery, functional status recorded during five-year...
The 2 primary surgical approaches for proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) arthroplasty, dorsal or volar, have been extensively described in the literature. However, ongoing debate regarding which approach offers superior results is associated with fewer complications persists. This systematic review aims to compare outcomes of PIPJ arthroplasty between and volar approaches.
Background: There are no clearly defined guidelines for the management of distal radial physeal injuries. We aimed to identify risk factors patients with trauma deformity, closure, and revision procedure develop a predictive model. Methods: The retrospective study included less than 16 years old displaced injuries treated between 2011 2018 across five centers in United Kingdom. Deformity was as volar angulation >11°, dorsal >15°, inclination <15° or >23°, positive ulnar variance....
Persistent wound leakage following joint arthroplasty is a known risk for periprosthetic infection. Little of the predictors leakage, particularly in patients with fractured neck femur. We aimed to determine patient and surgical factors this cohort.All undergoing surgery femur at Leicester Royal Infirmary between May August 2017 were included. Patients identified from prospective database placed into two groups: those later than three days postoperatively without leakage. All previously...
Intra-articular corticosteroid injections are widely used as a management modality for mild large joint osteoarthritis (OA). In contrast, there is little guidance or consensus on the use of steroids in moderate to severe disease. The aim this study explore current practice surgeons relation therapeutic intra-articular steroid patients awaiting arthroplasty OA.An anonymous questionnaire was distributed consultants performing four National Health Service Trusts. Participants were questioned...
