Spine-related disorders are a leading cause of global disability and burden on society to public health. Currently, there is no comprehensive, evidence-based model care for spine-related disorders, which includes back neck pain, deformity, spine injury, neurological conditions, spinal diseases, pathology, that could be applied in health settings. The purposes this paper propose: (1) principles transform the delivery care; (2) an globally; (3) implementation suggestions. Global Spine Care...
The purpose of this report is to describe the development an evidence-based care pathway that can be implemented globally. Global Spine Care Initiative (GSCI) team extracted interventions recommended for management spinal disorders from six GSCI articles synthesized available evidence guidelines and relevant literature. Sixty-eight international interprofessional clinicians scientists with expertise in spine-related conditions were invited participate. An iterative consensus process was...
A retrospective population-based survey in the Republic of Botswana determined incidence fractures at hip over 3 years. The estimated number such nationwide for 2020 was 103 and is predicted to increase.
The purpose of this report is to describe the development a classification system that would apply anyone with spine-related concern and can be used in an evidence-based spine care pathway. Existing systems for spinal disorders were assembled. A seed document was developed through round-table discussions followed by modified Delphi process. International interprofessional clinicians scientists expertise conditions invited participate. Thirty-six experts from 15 countries participated. After...
The purpose of this report is to describe the Global Spine Care Initiative (GSCI) contributors, disclosures, and methods for reporting transparency on development recommendations. World convened GSCI develop an evidence-based, practical, sustainable healthcare model spinal care. initiative aims improve management, prevention, public health spine-related disorders worldwide; thus, global representation was essential. A series meetings established initiative's mission goals. Electronic surveys...
The World Spine Care (WSC), established by volunteers from 5 continents, is dedicated to providing sustainable, evidence-based spine care individuals and communities in low middle-income countries consistent with available health-care resources integrated within the local culture. research committee approves oversees WSC’s collaborative training projects worldwide serves create a sustainable community for underserved populations focused on preventing disability spinal disorders. purpose of...
To identify the factors that affect SF-36 mental component summary (MCS) in patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD) at time of presentation, and to analyse effect MCS on clinical outcomes surgically treated patients.Prospectively collected data from a multicentric ASD database was analysed for baseline parameters. Then, same minimum 1-year follow-up see treatment results. A clinically useful determined by ROC Curve analysis.A total 229 parameters were analysed. strong correlation between...
Hip fracture rates in Botswana were used to create a FRAX® model for risk assessment.This paper describes the development and characteristics of country-specific FRAX Botswana.Age-specific sex-specific incidence hip national mortality was incorporated into Botswana. Ten-year probabilities compared with those from African countries having Americans USA.The major osteoporotic low South Africa (Black Coloured) US Blacks. Probabilities marginally higher than Tunisia.The creation is expected help...
To analyze the cognitive abilities of older patients undergoing spinal deformity surgery so as to understand whether adult (ASD) is associated with postoperative malfunction.A prospective longitudinal study was performed on surgical than 50 years, enrolled in a multicenter database. Mini-mental state examination (MMSE) assess function addition health-related quality life (HRQOL) tests; (SF-36, ODI and SRS-22) at pre-operative, post-operative 6 weeks months points. Demographics, preoperative...
A 60-year-old male presented with nine-month history of pain and progressively increasing swelling over the dorsomedial aspect right foot.It started as a small painful dorsum foot.The patient developed non-healing fungating ulcer at biopsy site during course disease (Figures 1a andb).There was no trauma, fever or discharging sinus, any other in body.There radiation exposure.The non-diabetic did not present systemic ailment.On examination, diffuse, hard about 10×15 cm foot.A ulcer, 4×4 size,...
Spinal instrumentation and surgical techniques have exponentially improved over the years, today's spinal surgeon is well equipped to rigidly fix spine with minimum adverse effects.Complications may emerge during or after operations.Infection, hematoma neurological deficits are early noticed findings.Instrumentation problems i.e. screw and/or rod failures present in long-term surgery.Caudal migration out of column a rare entity.We report here three case incidents (in two patients) lumbar...
IntroductionAdult spinal deformity (ASD) may be classified as idiopathic (I) or degenerative (D) (or other) based on classifier's perception, the reliability of and factors inherent to which remain unknown. Aim study is evaluate inter intraobserver surgeons' perception in differentiating I from D ASD identify determinants it. Material MethodsFrom a multicentric prospective database, 179 patients were identified with diagnosis (n = 103) 76); no previous surgery; lumbar coronal curve > 20°....
Introduction As surgical decision-making and preoperative planning for adult spinal deformity (ASD) need strongly be interrelated to health related quality of life (HRQOL), there are multiple studies focusing on factors with an impact it. Based the general perception association between treatment results psychological condition patients ASD, analyzing governing baseline status this group may worthwhile. Aim study is develop understanding which have a greater SF-36 mental component score...
Introduction Elderly patients undergoing major surgery may experience cognitive deterioration due to lesser plasticity in their brain tissue. This so called postoperative dysfunction (POCD) syndrome is characterized with non-specific memory, concentration and analysis skills. It not known whether adult spinal deformity (ASD) associated POCD. Purpose of this study analyze the abilities older before after as understand ASD Material Methods A prospective longitudinal was performed on surgical...
