Background. Previous studies showed significant interaction between the local and systemic inflammatory response after severe trauma in small animal models. The purpose of this study was to establish a new combined model pigs investigate fracture-associated inflammation gain information about early stages polytrauma. Material Methods. Combined consisted tibial fracture, lung contusion, liver laceration, controlled hemorrhage. Animals were mechanically ventilated under ICU-monitoring for 48...
Background and Objectives: The increased use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) results in an prevalence DOAC treatment hip fractures patients. However, the impact on perioperative management fracture patients is limited. In this study, we describe a population compare these with taking vitamin K antagonists (VKA) not anticoagulants. Materials Methods: This study retrospective analysis from Registry for Geriatric Trauma (ATR-DGU). data were collected prospectively proximal femur treated...
Owing to the aging population, incidence of hip fractures is increasing. While concomitant are not uncommon, it unclear how they influence subsequent function.Therefore, we determined (1) incidence, type and treatment accompanying fractures, (2) length hospital stay, (3) impact on mortality complication rate, (4) patients' function.We retrospectively reviewed 402 patients older than 60 years with fractures. We recorded presence their treatment. analyzed duration stays, in-hospital mortality,...
Aim The importance of proximal femoral fractures is increasing due to demographic change. Despite appropriate care, these are associated with poor results. We still lagging behind, and require information on the long‐term functional outcome patients predictive factors involved. Methods Between 2009 2011, 402 aged >60 years hip were included in this prospective observational study. Patients assessed Barthel Index before fracture, at discharge, 6 months, 1 year 5 after surgery. In addition,...
Zusammenfassung Alterstraumazentren (ATZ) sind spezialisierte Einrichtungen zur Frakturversorgung bei vulnerablen, älteren Traumapatienten, welche aufgrund oftmals vorhandener Begleiterscheinungen wie Osteoporose, Polypharmazie, Sarkopenie etc. ein erhöhtes Fraktur-/Komplikationsrisiko aufweisen. Die häufigsten Frakturen betreffen das Hüftgelenk, den distalen Radius, proximalen Humerus, die Wirbelsäule und Beckenring. Eine zentrale Herausforderung in der Behandlung älterer Patienten ist...
Trochanteric fractures are common in the elderly. Due to characteristic demographic changes, incidence of these injuries is rapidly increasing. Treatment associated with high rates complications. In addition, long-term results remain poor, morbidity, declines function, and mortality. Therefore, this study, complication patients' outcomes were evaluated after fixation geriatric trochanteric using Gamma3™ nail.Patients aged 60 years old or older, pertrochanteric subtrochanteric femoral...
An animal polytrauma model was developed, including trunk and extremity injuries combined with hemorrhagic shock a prolonged post-traumatic phase. This could be useful for the assessment of different therapeutic approaches during intensive care therapy.A standardized lung contusion, liver laceration lower leg fracture applied in 25 pigs. They underwent controlled haemorrhage either blood volume loss 45 % median arterial pressure (MAP) <30 mmHg/90 min (group L, n = 15) or 50 an MAP <25...
Multiple trauma (MT) associated with hemorrhagic shock (HS) might lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and brain damage. We investigated alterations using a new porcine MT/HS model without traumatic injury (TBI) assessed the neuroprotective properties of mild therapeutic hypothermia. Male pigs underwent standardized MT HS (45% or 50% loss blood volume) resuscitation after 90/120 min (T90/T120). In additional groups (TH90/TH120) hypothermia (33°C) was induced following resuscitation. Normothermic...
Hip fractures are frequent in geriatric patients. These have great socioeconomic implications because of the significantly higher risk mortality and institutionalization. The aim this study was to develop a prognostic tool predict survival without institutionalization within 1 year after hip fracture.A total 402 fracture patients aged >60 years (84% community-dwelling) were included prospective observational cohort study. Multiple regression analyses determined independent predictors for...
