Combinatorial screening of electrochemical catalysts by current-voltage methods can be unwieldy for large sample sizes. By converting the ions generated in an half-cell reaction to a fluorescence signal, most active compositions electrode array have been identified. A fluorescent acid-base indicator was used image high concentrations hydrogen ions, which were electrooxidation methanol. 645-member containing five elements (platinum, ruthenium, osmium, iridium, and rhodium), 80 binary, 280...
The bifunctional model for methanol electro-oxidation suggests that competent catalysts should contain at least two types of surface elements: those bind and activate its C−H bonds adsorb water. Our previous work considered phase equilibria relative Pt−C M−O (M = Ru, Os) bond strengths in predicting improved activity among single-phase Pt−Ru−Os ternary alloys. By addition a correlation with M−C Pt, Ir), it is possible to rationalize the recent combinatorial discovery further Pt−Ru−Os−Ir...
Distal radius fractures are very common injuries and surgical treatment for them can be painful. Achieving early pain control may help improve patient satisfaction functional outcomes. Little is known about which anesthesia technique (general versus brachial plexus blockade) most beneficial after distal fixation could significantly affect patients' postoperative course experience.We asked: (1) Did patients receiving general or blockade have worse scores at 2, 12, 24 hours surgery? (2) Was...
Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that affect hand surgeon operating room (OR) turnover time. We hypothesized presence in OR, decreased American Society Anesthesiologists (ASA) class, smaller case type, and earlier time, as well other factors, OR Methods: A total 685 surgery cases performed by 5 attending surgeons between September 2013 December 2014 were identified. Turnover patient comorbidities (ASA class), surgeon, prior surgical procedure, current...
The aim of this study was to quantify the amount tendon excursion and load experienced during simulated active passive rehabilitation exercises. Six cadaver specimens were utilized examine load. Lateral fluoroscopic images used measure excursions metal markers placed in flexor digitorum superficialis profundus tendons index, middle, ring fingers. Measurements performed ten different motions. Mean forces higher all versus movements. Blocking movements highest loads on tendons. Active motion...
The Internet is a common resource for applicants of hand surgery fellowships, however, the quality and accessibility fellowship online information unknown. objectives this study were to evaluate Web sites assess provided via program sites. Hand site was evaluated by reviewing American Society Surgery (ASSH) on November 16, 2014 National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) directories February 12, 2015, performing an independent Google search 25, 2014. Accessible then assessed presented...
Background: Previous work evaluating the pronator quadratus (PQ) muscle following volar plate fixation (VPF) of distal radius fractures (DRF) suggests that PQ repair often fails in postoperative period. The purpose this investigation was to assess integrity VPF DRF using dynamic musculoskeletal ultrasonography. Methods: Twenty adult patients who underwent with a minimum follow-up 3 months bilateral wrist repair, range motion (ROM) and strength, functional outcome scores were assessed....
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patient's perceptions physician reimbursement for the most commonly performed surgery on hand, a carpal tunnel release (CTR).Anonymous surveys were given patients and non-patients in waiting rooms orthopaedic hand physicians' offices certified therapist's offices. survey consisted 13 questions. Respondents asked (1) what they thought surgeon should be paid perform release, (2) estimate how much Medicare reimburses surgeon, (3) about health care...
Nonunion can occur relatively frequently after scaphoid fracture and appears to be associated with severity of injury. There have been a number techniques described for bone grafting or without screw fixation facilitate healing. However, even operative fractures nonunion malunion rates 5 10 percent are still reported. This is the first report an anatomic locking plate repair in 25-year-old right hand dominant healthy male.
We developed a series of management reports to compare actual costs against expected for radiology departments on more detailed level than previously available. first labor standards the most commonly employed diagnostic examinations and showed that increased patient complexity (resulting from, example, immobility, precautions status, etc.) also examination times up 2.6-fold compared with time required average patients. Using budgeted volumes complex patients, we calculated four types...
