Background: Population-based incidence rates and trends of acute Achilles tendon ruptures are not known. It is also known whether recent high-quality randomized controlled trials favoring surgery have had an effect on treatment protocols. Purpose: To assess the in Sweden to examine surgical treatment. Study Design: Descriptive epidemiology study. Methods: We conducted a nationwide registry-based study including all adult (≥18 years age) inpatient outpatient hospital visits because rupture...
A few national cruciate ligament (CL) registers have been initiated with operative surveillance and outcome monitoring. No nationwide study describing CL injury has ever done.To the incidence characteristics of patients diagnosed in Sweden.Descriptive epidemiology study.Data for all a between 2001 2009 were identified from National Swedish Patient Register. Risk analysis specific incidences calculated according to age, sex, geographic region, surgery.A total number 56,659 included study,...
Background: Clavicle fractures are common injuries causing substantial morbidity. Recent literature suggests that the incidence of surgically treated clavicle has increased. However, it is unknown whether increase caused by more surgeons choosing operative over nonoperative treatment for injury or an in actual fractures. The aim this study was to assess both national and rate surgical those Sweden. Methods: We assessed trends rates surgery validated Swedish Hospital Discharge Register offers...
Background Although increasingly used, the benefit of surgical treatment displaced 2-part proximal humerus fractures has not been proven. This trial evaluates clinical effectiveness surgery with locking plate compared non-operative for these fractures. Methods and findings The NITEP group conducted a superiority, assessor-blinded, multicenter randomized in 6 hospitals Finland, Estonia, Sweden, Denmark. Eighty-eight patients aged 60 years or older (more than 1 cm 45 degrees) anatomical neck...
Full-scale simulation training is an accepted learning method for gaining behavioural skills in team-centred domains such as aviation, the nuclear power industry and, recently, medicine. In this study we evaluated effects of a simulator team based on targets and known principles cognitive psychology.This was developed adapted medical emergency team. particular, created trauma course novices, allowed 15 students to practise 5 full-scale scenarios. Students' behaviour video-recorded students'...
Background: Contemporary learning technologies, such as massively multiplayer virtual worlds (MMVW), create new means for teaching and training. However, knowledge about the effectiveness of training is incomplete, there are no data regarding how students experience it. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) a field within medicine in high demand effective modalities. Objective: In addition to finding feasible way implement CPR training, our aim was investigate serious game setting world using...
Background Teamwork—that is, collaboration and communication—is an important factor for safe healthcare, but professions perceive the quality of teamwork differently. Objective To examine relationship between simulation-based team training (SBTT) different professions’ self-efficacy, experienced communication, perceptions safety, together with staff turnover. Methods All (n=151; physicians, nurses nurse assistants) in intensive care unit (ICU) at a university hospital were systematically...
Objective To study the association between Cruciate Ligament (CL) injury and development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis in knee patients treated operatively with CL reconstruction compared non-operatively. Design Population based cohort study; level evidence II-2. Setting Sweden, 1987–2009. Participants All aged 15–60 years being diagnosed registered a The National Swedish Patient Register 1987 2009. Main Outcome Measures Knee osteoarthritis. Results A total 64,614 during to 2009 Sweden...
Acute knee (tibiofemoral joint) dislocation is a serious injury, although population-based numbers and incidence rates of with or without concomitant vascular injury are unknown.The study covered the whole adult population 4 million persons (aged ≥ 18 years) in Finland during 11-year period from January 1, 1998, to December 31, 2011. Data on hospitalization caused by acute dislocations injuries requiring operative treatment were obtained nationwide National Hospital Discharge Registry.During...
Background: Fractures of the pelvis and acetabulum are major injuries, often associated with hospitalization, reduced function sometimes life-threatening conditions. Current data on nationwide incidence treatment is sparse. Existing epidemiological studies either single-centered or investigating only in-patients. The aim this study was to investigate epidemiology pelvic acetabular fractures in a register including all adult patients Sweden during 2001-2016.Methods: We used Swedish National...
Natural killer (NK) cells are activated early during inflammatory events and contribute to the shaping of ensuing adaptive immune response. To further understand role for NK in inflammation, we investigated phenotype function synovial fluid (SF) from patients with chronic joint as well transient inflammation knee following trauma. We confirm that similar well-characterized CD56(bright) peripheral blood (PB) NK-cell subset present healthy individuals. However, compared this PB express a...
Background Although surgery is the standard treatment for hallux valgus, there insufficient evidence from randomized trials to determine which methods of are most appropriate. Methods One hundred patients with valgus were a Lindgren (subcapital, transverse, displacement osteotomy) or distal chevron osteotomy. Outcome measures, such as American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) clinical rating hallux, EuroQol (EQ-5D) health-related quality life, visual analogue scales (VAS) pain used...
Computed tomography ( CT ) was used to explore if changes in muscle cross‐sectional area and quality after anterior cruciate ligament ACL injury reconstruction would be related knee function. Fourteen females 23 males (16–54 years) underwent clinical tests, subjective questionnaires, 1 week before year surgery with semitendinosus‐gracilis STG graft rehabilitation. Postoperatively, laxity decreased functional measures patient scores improved. The most obvious remaining deficit the quadriceps...
Background: Approximately 300,000 people suffer sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) annually in the United States. Less than 30% of out-of-hospital victims receive cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) despite American Heart Association training over 12 million laypersons to conduct CPR. New engaging learning methods are needed for CPR education, especially schools. Massively multiplayer virtual worlds (MMVW) offer platforms serious games that promising take advantage computer capabilities today's...
Multiplayer virtual world (MVW) technology creates opportunities to practice medical procedures and team interactions using serious game software. This study aims explore students' retention of knowledge skills as well their proficiency gain after pre-training a MVW with avatars for cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training.Three groups pre-clinical students, n = 30, were assessed further trained high fidelity full-scale simulator: Two pre-trained 6 18 months before assessment.
