Thus, our study was aimed to assess the efficacy of Ponseti technique in correcting congenital talipes equinovarus deformity of foot, to determine the type of clubfoot best suited for this technique and to find the lacunae and disadvantages of Ponseti technique, if any. MATERIALS AND METHODS: It was a prospective study of 50 cases with 76 feet of clubfoot in tertiary level hospital from September 2012 to October 2016. All these cases included were classical clubfoot deformities (idiopathic clubfoot), excluding syndromic and complicated cases with previous failed operative treatment. Children were evaluated by Pirani severity scoring system. All the patients were treated by Ponseti technique of corrective casting and achilles tenotomy. RESULTS: In the present study, about 84% of patients had good results, 4% had fair results, and 12% of patients had poor results showing failure with Ponseti technique. Overall, 88% of the patients presented with satisfactory results. Overall, mean Pirani score for all the feet was 5.01. There were thirty complications among all the patients, constituting 39% of total feet. CONCLUSION: The observations of the present study clearly showed that age at initial presentation, quality (mobility) of foot and Pirani score at presentation directly affects final results. Ponseti technique for the treatment of clubfoot is a simple and effective which is suitable in the Indian subcontinent as it is economical.","PeriodicalId":31882,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedics and Allied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45897811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kansay, Sandeep Kumar","doi":"10.4103/JOAS.JOAS_24_16","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4103/JOAS.JOAS_24_16","url":null,"abstract":"BACKGROUND: Blood transfusion is the cornerstone of therapy for many serious ailments, surgical and trauma patients. Patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries as elective procedure or emergency orthopedic surgery for trauma often experience excessive blood loss- requiring transfusions. However, preoperative placement of blood requests frequently overshoots the actual need resulting in unnecessary crossmatching, which can be reduced by formulating maximum surgical blood ordering schedule (MSBOS). It is a table of elective surgical procedures, which lists the number of units of blood routinely cross-matched pre-operatively. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to audit the blood utilization in orthopedic surgeries so that unnecessary cross-matching, wastage of blood bank resources, and financial losses to the patients could be reduced. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out in our tertiary care hospital over a period of 6 months to determine the utilization of blood during different orthopedic procedures and to recommend an appropriate blood ordering schedule. The data collected include patient's requests, patient's transfused, type of surgical procedure, number of units crossmatched and transfused, crossmatch to transfusion ratio (CTR) and transfusion indices (TI's); according to them, MSBOS was proposed. RESULTS: A total of 478 units of blood were crossmatched for 273 patients and only 243 units were transfused to 183 patients. About 50.8% of the crossmatched units and 67% of the total patients were transfused. Seven out of the thirteen procedures had a CTR higher than 2, low TI ≤0.5 and blood utilization ≤50%. Fracture forearm and unilateral total knee replacement have the transfusion probability of ≤30%, so implementation of type and screen policy was recommended for these two procedures. CONCLUSIONS: MSBOS based on the past blood utilization records for different surgeries and keeping patients variables in consideration wherever required would provide an efficient way of blood utilization and appropriate management of blood bank resources.","PeriodicalId":31882,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedics and Allied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42530235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rehabilitation should promote the full inclusion and participation of people with disabilities in the physical and psychosocial environment. The past two decades have seen a renewed interest in India to improve services for spinal injured. Although there are number of barriers to successful community reintegration in India; a holistic and empathetic approach to prioritize this issue is the need of the hour.

These fractures are most frequently operated type having the highest postoperative fatality rates and hence have become a serious health resource issue. AIM: The aim of this study is to assess the risk factors and their effect on the outcome of intertrochanteric fractures treated by sliding hip screw fixation. SETTINGS AND DESIGN: This is a retrospective and prospective observational study of all the intertrochanteric fractures treated by sliding hip screw fixation at our institute between January 2013 to August 2015. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 78 intertrochanteric fractures have met the inclusion criteria proposed for the study. Preoperative and intraoperative risk factors were assessed for all the cases and treated by sliding hip screw. The Radiological outcome was assessed after a minimum follow-up of 3 months for all the cases. RESULTS: When comparing all the preoperative and intraoperative variables independently with the outcome, P value was found to be statistically significant only in displacement, reverse obliquity, inadequate lateral wall thickness, and reduction. We devised a scoring system to assess the risk outcome in the treatment of trochanteric fractures based on local fracture factors. Least score of zero and a maximum score of eight was seen in the study participants. CONCLUSION: Trochantric severity score is a useful tool to assess the outcome of management of intertrochanteric fractures.

We present an unusual case of femoral head osteonecrosis in a patient who concomitantly suffered a complete delamination injury to the articular surface and ultimately underwent progressive degenerative changes in the femoral head requiring total hip arthroplasty (THA). A 57-year-old man without significant medical comorbidities presented for orthopedic evaluation in the outpatient setting complaining of left hip pain. The patient reported a slip and fall onto his left hip 4 months prior with no preexisting discomfort. Since then, the progressively worsening pain has centered on the left groin with radiation into the lateral aspect of the hip. Physical examination is negative for focal deficits, but provocative maneuvers for intra-articular pathology were positive. X-rays demonstrated mild degenerative changes while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a complete delamination injury to the articular surface with associated femoral head collapse. Nonoperative treatment failed to provide pain relief, and so the patient ultimately underwent surgical intervention. Treatment consisted of left uncemented THA with cable augmentation. Postoperatively, the patient was monitored with periodic follow-ups while undergoing postsurgical rehabilitation. Interval improvement was demonstrated and patient overall did well.","PeriodicalId":31882,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedics and Allied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42961697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
