To compare unreamed intramedullary nailing (IMN) with external fixation (EF) in patients Type II, IIIA, and IIIB open fractures of the tibial shaft.An inception cohort consecutive incurred between January 1988 March 1993 were systematically allocated into one two treatment groups. Patients treated followed a prospectively designed protocol.All skeletally mature had fracture diaphysis within twenty-four hours presentation to tertiary care hospital, Level I Trauma Center. One hundred...
This is a review of 183 patients with 218 displaced intraarticular fractures the calcaneus treated by open reduction and internal fixation. One hundred ninety four (89%) wounds underwent primary uneventful healing. Twenty-four (11%) required local wound care. deep infection occurred in neuropathic foot that below-knee amputation. No free-tissue transfers, tissue flaps or skin grafts were needed who presented initially closed fracture. Ninety-five (43.5%) subsequent surgical procedures...
Data on 43 industrial organizations point to the existence of relationships between an organization's technology and aspects its internal structure, including number oJ specialized sub-units, levels authority, ratio managers supervisors total personnel, degree program specification within organization. A primary finding is that less changeful technology, more likely foregoing structure are increase. The findings hold with size a other organizational variables controlled. importance...
Background: The use of intramedullary devices for the management intertrochanteric fractures has steadily increased without good evidence their clinical efficacy. This prospective randomized multicenter study was designed to compare and radiographic outcomes patients who had been treated with a traditional extramedullary hip screw an unstable (AO/OTA 31-A2) fracture those newer device same injury. Methods: Lower Extremity Measure (LEM) used as primary hip-specific outcome tool. Functional...
In Brief Study Design. Retrospective analysis of a prospectively followed cohort. Objective. Long-term evaluation patients with anterior stabilization for dislocations the cervical spine. Setting. Level 1 trauma center. Summary Background Data. Anterior unstable spine injuries is gaining popularity. However, method open reduction controversial. Methods. Forty-one consecutive dislocations/subluxations subaxial were included. Closed was attempted in all using Gardner-Wells traction. If this...
Objectives: To evaluate the safety and functional outcome of a recently described surgical technique percutaneous plating for proximal humerus fractures. Design: Prospective clinical trial. Setting: Two urban Level 1 university trauma centers. Patients: From February 2002 to December 2003, 34 consecutive patients underwent surgery by 5 surgeons from 2 teaching hospitals. Twenty-seven had 1-year follow-up. Intervention: The involved minimal incisions with lateral deltoid split more distal...
Occupational injuries and hazards have gained increased attention in the surgical community general orthopedic literature specifically. The aim of this study was to assess prevalence characteristics musculoskeletal disorders among trauma surgeons impact these on surgeons' practices.We sent a modified version physical discomfort survey surgeon members Orthopaedic Trauma Association (OTA) via email. Data were collected descriptive statistics analyzed.A total 86 completed during period data...
Purpose of the study: Osteonecrosis hip mostly affects young individuals and oftenprogresses to a debilitating disease. Several treatment modalities exist, but none are completely satisfactory. This study evaluates clinical outcome patients treated with core decompression insertion porous tantalum implant in femoral head. procedure is similar commonly performed procedures, has additional advantages providing structural support necrotic head while having no donor-site morbidity. Methods: We...
Objectives Fracture is a common injury after traumatic event. The efficacy and safety of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to treat acute pain related fractures not well established. Methods Clinically relevant questions were determined regarding NSAID use in the setting trauma-induced with clearly defined patient populations, interventions, comparisons appropriately selected outcomes (PICO). These centered around (pain control, reduction opioid use) (non-union, kidney injury)....
