One of the most common barriers identified by physicians who fail to screen for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in trauma patients is time constraint. We hypothesized four-question Primary Care-PTSD (PC-PTSD) was an acceptable alternative commonly used 17-question Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist-Civilian Version (PCL-C).Consecutive admitted a Level I center were given PCL-C at hospitalization. The four questions PC-PTSD are contained within PCL-C. A positive result endorsement...
Postoperative knee stiffness can influence outcomes following operative treatment of multiligament injuries (MLKIs). The purpose this study was to evaluate patient and surgical factors that may potentially contribute surgery for MLKIs. All surgically managed MLKIs involving two or more ligaments over a 10-year period at single level one trauma center were included in study. A retrospective review performed gather objective data related the development after surgery. Patients classified as...
Management of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) in setting a multiligamentous knee injury (MLKI) represents an area great controversy.Our study was designed to compare long-term patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after MCL repair versus reconstruction knee.Cohort study; Level evidence, 3.At single institution, 68 patients were identified over 10-year period as having intervention MLKI. Of these patients, 34 (50%) successfully contacted via telephone collect Lysholm and International Knee...
This study explores a novel smartphone application for postoperative care following carpal tunnel release (CTR). We hypothesized that software-based 'virtual visit' CTR could be safe, effective and convenient the patient.Our group developed software utilized in this study. Interactive steps with video instructions enabled patients to complete dressing suture removal, capture wound photo, answer question about median nerve symptoms of finger range motion. Adult undergoing endoscopic or open...
Modular oxacyclophanes featuring m-terphenyl units scaffold inter-pi-system interaction in face-to-face stacked or orthogonal orientations, leading to distinct photophysical properties.
This work reports the preparation of a series 2,2′-bipyridyl (bipy) modified π-conjugated polymers having an average one or three monomer units (p-arylene ethynylene for PPE1 and PPE3 7,7-dihexylfluorene PF1 PF3) between metal-binding sites. Spectroscopic data demonstrate that strategic placement sterically encumbered mesityl groups about metal binding sites enforces 1:1 to bipy ratio. steric coordination control ensures metalated remain solution processable rather than forming insoluble...
Chromophores ranging from simple small molecule π-conjugated systems comprised of phenylene ethynylene or fluorenylethynyl units to cross-conjugated Bunz-type cruciforms have been derivatized include 1,3-bis(dimethylaminomethyl)phenyl moieties. The photophysical responsiveness these diamino-substituted chromophores metal ions has examined. Both emission enhancement (turn-on) and ratiometric fluorescence detection Cu(2+) Zn(2+) achieved in THF.
Social determinants of health disparities have been shown to adversely impact outcomes following distal radius fracture (DRF) treatment. Identifying risk factors for increased hospital use DRF has historically difficult; however, it is utmost concern orthopedic surgeons improve and decrease the total cost care. The effect social deprivation yet be fully investigated.
Disparities in social determinants of health have been linked to worse patient-reported outcomes, higher postoperative pain, and increased risk revision surgery following Orthopaedic procedures. Identification perioperative predictors care utilization is particular interest mitigate cost improve patient outcomes. The aim this study elucidate the effect deprivation levels, using Area Deprivation Index (ADI), on pinning supracondylar humerus (SCH) fractures. Identifying factors for...
Case: A 12-year-old girl presented with a both-bone forearm fracture after fall. Fracture healing occurred, but nerve injury was not addressed until 18 months injury. Magnetic resonance imaging and electromyography yielded median injury, she underwent reconstruction sural grafting. She improved continued to have deficits beyond her 1-year follow-up. Conclusion: Both-bone fractures are common pattern rare complications. Clinicians should high index of suspicion persistent symptoms consider...
