Background: It is widely accepted that most patients treated with rotator cuff repair do well regardless of the integrity repair. The purpose this cross-sectional study was to reexamine concept and identify factors affecting outcomes a recurrent tear. Methods: A cohort who had been completed survey regarding satisfaction operatively shoulder, physical activity, shoulder function. Ultrasonography performed determine integrity. Patients were divided into three age categories: younger than...
Background: Congenital abnormalities when present, according to VACTERL theory, occur nonrandomly with other congenital anomalies. This study estimates the prevalence of spinal anomalies, and their concurrence systemic Methods: A retrospective cohort analysis on Health care Cost Utilization Project’s Kids Inpatient Database (KID), years 2000, 2003, 2006, 2009 was performed. ICD-9 coding identified anomalies spine body systems. Outcome Measures: Overall incidence in pediatric patients,...
Aims Advances in arthroscopic techniques for rotator cuff repair have made the mini-open approach less popular. However, remains an important technique many surgeons. The aims of this study were to compare integrity repair, function shoulder and satisfaction post-operatively using these two patients aged > 50 years. Patients Methods We identified 22 treated with 128 July 2007 June 2011. mean follow-up was years (1 5). Outcome assessed American Shoulder Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Simple Test...
Study Design. In vitro laboratory study. Objective. The purpose of this study was to identify the effect dilute povidone-iodine (PVI) solutions on human osteoblast, fibroblast and myoblast cells in vitro. Summary Background Data. Dilute PVI wound lavage has been used successfully spine joint arthroplasty procedures prevent postoperative surgical site infection, but their biologic host is largely unknown. Methods. Human primary osteoblasts, fibroblasts, myoblasts were expanded cell culture...
Diabetes as an independent driver of peri-operative outcomes, and whether its severity impacts indications is conflicted in the research. The purpose this study to evaluate diabetes a predictor for postoperative outcomes cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) patients.A retrospective review was performed patients treated surgically CSM (ICD-9 721.1) from 2010-2012 prospectively-collected American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database. Outcome measures...
Abstract Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disease characterized by insulin deficiency, and patients with have increased risk of bone fracture significantly impaired healing. Proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor‐alpha upregulated in diabetic fractures believed to underlie delayed healing commonly observed diabetes. Our previous genetic screen for the binding partners progranulin (PGRN), a growth factor‐like molecule that induces chondrogenesis, led identification...
Given the physical and economic burden of complications in spine surgery, reducing prevalence perioperative adverse events is a primary concern both patients health care professionals. This study aims to identify specific factors predictive developing varying grades postoperative adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients, as assessed by Clavien-Dindo complication classification (Cc) system.Surgical ASD ≥18 years were identified American College Surgeons' National Surgical Quality Improvement...
Study Design: Retrospective review of a prospectively collected database. Objective: To predict the occurrence hospital-acquired conditions (HACs) 30-days postoperatively and to compare predictors HACs for spine surgery with other common elective surgeries. Methods: Patients ≥18 years undergoing were identified in American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database from 2005 2013. Outcome measures included any HACs: superficial or deep surgical site...
