BACKGROUND: Femoral fragility fractures in older adults can result in devastating loss of physical function and independence. Skeletal muscle atrophy likely contributes to disability. The purpose of this study was to characterize the change in skeletal muscle mass, investigate the relationship with malnutrition and physical function, and identify risk factors for skeletal muscle loss. METHODS: Adults ≥65 years of age who were treated with operative fixation of an isolated femoral fragility fracture were enrolled in this multicenter, prospective observational study...

BACKGROUND: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate changes in pulmonary function, caused by preoperative halo-pelvic traction (HPT) for the treatment of extremely severe and rigid kyphoscoliosis, with use of 3-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) reconstruction and pulmonary function tests (PFTs). METHODS: Twenty-eight patients with severe and rigid scoliosis (Cobb angle, >100°) underwent preoperative HPT and staged posterior spinal fusion. CT, radiographic assessment, and PFT were performed during pre-traction and post-traction visits...

BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic fractures are rare but devastating complications of knee replacement, often requiring complex surgery with substantial morbidity and mortality. It is not known how the fracture rates after total knee replacement (TKR) and unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) compare. We performed the first matched study comparing TKR and UKR periprosthetic fracture rates. METHODS: This study involved 54,215 UKRs and 54,215 TKRs, identified in the National Joint Registry and Hospital Episodes Statistics database, which were propensity score-matched on patient and surgical factors...

BACKGROUND: Despite the fact that many synovial fluid biomarkers have found application in the routine diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), this process still remains a challenge for orthopaedic surgeons. To simplify this process, fast point-of-care (POC) tests can be used during ambulatory visits and in operating room conditions. However, before such tests can be routinely used in clinical practice, they require validation. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of different fast POC tests for detecting C-reactive protein (CRP) in synovial fluid for the diagnosis of PJI...

JOURNAL ARTICLE

BACKGROUND: There are little long-term health data, particularly in terms of body composition and development of metabolic syndromes, to help surgeons to guide the decision between limb salvage and amputation in patients with limb-threatening trauma. The purpose of this study was to compare long-term health outcomes after high-energy lower-extremity trauma between patients who underwent attempted flap-based limb salvage or amputation. METHODS: We performed a retrospective review of servicemembers with a minimum 10-year follow-up who underwent flap-based limb salvage followed by unilateral amputation or continued limb salvage after combat-related, lower-extremity trauma between 2005 and 2011...

BACKGROUND: Extensive literature documents the adverse sequelae of delayed diagnosis of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE), including worsening deformity and surgical complications. Less is known about predictors of delayed diagnosis of SCFE, particularly the effects of social determinants of health. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of insurance type, family structure, and neighborhood-level socioeconomic vulnerability on the delay of SCFE diagnosis. METHODS: We reviewed medical records of patients who underwent surgical fixation for stable SCFE at a tertiary pediatric hospital from 2002 to 2021...

One World Surgery (OWS) is a medical mission organization that treats a variety of orthopaedic conditions and focuses on local partnerships, education, capacity-building, and high-quality care. OWS runs a Honduran ambulatory surgery center (ASC) with >50 full-time local staff; it operates year-round and accommodates visiting surgical teams bimonthly. Across its 12-year history, 8,703 surgical procedures have been performed and 54,940 total consults have been completed, with increasing autonomy of the local medical staff...

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to understand the role of social determinants of health assessed by the Area Deprivation Index (ADI) on hospital length of stay and discharge destination following surgical fixation of pelvic ring fractures. METHODS: A retrospective chart analysis was performed for all patients who presented to our level-I trauma center with pelvic ring injuries that were treated with surgical fixation. Social determinants of health were determined via use of the ADI, a comprehensive metric of socioeconomic status, education, income, employment, and housing quality...

➤ Extended reality is a term that encompasses different modalities, including virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality.➤ Although fully immersive virtual reality has benefits for developing procedural memory and technical skills, augmented and mixed reality are more appropriate modalities for preoperative planning and intraoperative utilization.➤ Current investigations on the role of extended reality in preoperative planning and intraoperative utilization are still in the early stages, but preliminarily show that extended reality technologies can help surgeons to be more accurate and efficient...

BACKGROUND: In the current era of evidence-based medicine, scientific publications play a crucial role in guiding patient care. While the lack of diversity among orthopaedic surgeons has been well documented, little is known about the diversity of orthopaedic journal editorial boards. The purpose of this study was to assess the racial/ethnic and gender diversity of U.S. orthopaedic journal editorial boards. METHODS: The editorial boards of 13 orthopaedic journals were examined, including 10 subspecialty and 3 general orthopaedic journals...

BACKGROUND: Despite evidence that formalized trauma systems enhance patient functional outcomes and decrease mortality rates, there remains a lack of such systems globally. Critical to trauma systems are the equipment, materials, and supplies needed to support care, which vary in availability regionally. The purpose of the present study was to identify essential resources for musculoskeletal trauma care across diverse resource settings worldwide. METHODS: The modified Delphi method was utilized, with 3 rounds of electronic surveys...

BACKGROUND: There is practice variation in the selection of a total hip arthroplasty (THA) or a hemiarthroplasty (HA) for the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in elderly patients. Large data sets are needed to compare the rates of rare complications following these procedures. We sought to examine the relationship between surgery type and secondary hip surgery (revision or conversion arthroplasty) at 12 months following the index arthroplasty, and that between surgery type and dislocation at 12 months, among elderly Medicare beneficiaries who underwent THA or HA for a femoral neck fracture, taking into account the potential for selection bias...
