The secondary aims were to determine the complication and reoperation rates. Methods: A retrospective study with long-term follow-up of patients undergoing HIT arthroplasty was performed. Demographic, disease, and treatment characteristics were collected for the 66 included patients. Thirty-one patients completed all surveys, which were the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH), our custom-made HIT arthroplasty questionnaire, Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain, and NRS for satisfaction. The mean interval between surgery and follow-up by means of questionnaires was 8.6 ± 3.4 years. Results: The mean QuickDASH score was 31.0 ± 20.2. The mean score of the HIT arthroplasty questionnaire was 2 ± 2. The median NRS for pain was 1 (interquartile range [IQR], 0-3), and the median NRS for satisfaction was 9 (IQR, 8-10). The complication rate and reoperation rate were 14% and 8%, respectively. Conclusion: Overall, patients expressed satisfaction with HIT arthroplasty, despite a mean QuickDASH score of 31.0. In our cohort, patients with inflammatory arthritis had higher satisfaction and lower pain scores. Patients who had prior trauma, prior surgery, or DRUJ subluxation are generally less satisfied. Men, older patients, and posttraumatic patients had higher long-term pain scores; however, posterior interosseous nerve neurectomy is associated with improved pain scores. Our findings support the use of HIT arthroplasty in patients with inflammatory arthritis.","PeriodicalId":76630,"journal":{"name":"The Hand","volume":"16 1","pages":"664 - 673"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1558944719873430","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44397192","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}

We sought to compare the 3 techniques most frequently used for extra-articular metacarpal and phalangeal fractures: plate screw (PS), Kirschner wire (KW), and retrograde intramedullary screw (RIS) fixation. We aimed to determine whether using an RIS provides better clinical outcomes than using either a PS or a KW fixation. Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of patients who underwent surgical treatment of metacarpal and phalangeal fractures from January 2011 to December 2017 in our department. Only patients with an acutely displaced short oblique or transverse extra-articular metacarpal or phalangeal fracture were included. Patients were classified into 3 groups depending on the treatment they received: PS, KW, or RIS fixation. The duration of each procedure was recorded. Clinical assessments included measuring total active motion (TAM), grip strength, and an evaluation of plain radiographs through to ultimate healing. A Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) score was collected on all patients. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis rank test, as indicated. Results: A total of 253 fractures (202 metacarpal and 51 phalangeal) in 230 patients were included in analysis. In all, 135 fractures (53.3%) underwent PS fixation; 53 (20.9%), KW fixation; and 65 (25.6%), RIS fixation. In the KW fixation group, Bouquet pinning was performed for metacarpal fractures and cross pinning for phalangeal fractures. When more than 1 fracture coexisted in the same patient, they were considered separate instances. No differences among the 3 groups were observed when evaluating mean time to radiological union, grip strength, TAM, or QuickDASH score. Mean surgery time was significantly shorter with KW (20 minutes) and RIS (25 minutes), than with PS (32 minutes). Mean return to work or routine activities time was significantly less in the RIS (7.8 weeks) group than in the PS and KW groups (8.3 and 9.2 weeks, respectively). Conclusions: Surgical treatment is recommended in patients with unstable metacarpal and phalangeal fractures. The use of RIS was associated with shorter mean surgery duration and return to work times than PS and KW, respectively.","PeriodicalId":76630,"journal":{"name":"The Hand","volume":"16 1","pages":"595 - 603"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1558944719873144","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48641686","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}

Several surgical methods have been utilized for management of these injuries, none of which have shown consistently favorable results. The purpose of this systematic review of the literature is to report the post-operative outcomes of multiple treatment modalities for PIPJ fracture-dislocations in various studies. Methods: A literature review of PubMed and EMBASE databases was performed for all articles on PIPJ fracture-dislocations. Outcomes of interest included PIPJ range of motion, grip strength (% of contralateral hand), and quick disabilities of arm, shoulder, hand (QuickDASH). Articles were distributed into 5 groups by surgical method: open reduction, percutaneous fixation, dynamic external fixation, extension-block pinning, and hemi-hamate arthroplasty. Results: Forty-eight of 1679 total screened articles were included. The weighted means of post-operative range of motion (ROM; degrees) at final follow-up were open reduction 84.7 (n = 146), percutaneous fixation 86.5 (n = 32), dynamic external fixation 81.7 (n = 389), extension-block pinning 83.6 (n = 85), and hemi-hamate arthroplasty 79.3 (n = 52). Dorsal fracture-dislocations, regardless of surgical method, had an average ROM of 83.2 (n = 321), grip strength 91% (n = 132), and QuickDASH of 6.6 (n = 59) while pilon injuries had an average ROM of 80.2 (n = 48), grip strength 100% (n = 13), and QuickDASH of 11.4 (n = 13). Conclusion: Percutaneous fixation yielded the highest post-operative ROM at final follow-up while extension-block pinning resulted in the greatest grip strength. While dorsal fracture-dislocations produced higher average ROM and lower QuickDASH score, pilon fractures produced a higher grip strength. No treatment method or fracture type yielded consistently better outcomes than another.","PeriodicalId":76630,"journal":{"name":"The Hand","volume":"16 1","pages":"453 - 460"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1558944719873152","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44913380","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}

The purpose of our study was to assess the efficacy of a specific set of opioid-prescribing guidelines by prospective evaluation of patient consumption and satisfaction. Methods: During a consecutive period, all patients undergoing outpatient upper extremity surgical procedures were postoperatively prescribed opioids based on published guidelines that were specific to the anatomical location and procedure being performed. At the first postoperative visit, surgical details, opioid consumption patterns, and prescription efficacy and satisfaction were recorded. Results: A total of 201 patients reported any amount of prescription use, resulting in a mean consumption of 5.5 pills. Patients who underwent soft tissue procedures reported the lowest requirement (4.2 pills) compared with those who underwent fracture repairs (6.7 pills) or arthroscopy and arthroplasty/fusion procedures (8.7 pills). Patients undergoing hand procedures consumed fewer opioids (3.9 pills) compared with those undergoing wrist (6.3 pills) or elbow (8.1 pills) procedures. Of the patients requiring opioids, 82% reported being satisfied or at least neutral to the prescribed quantity (P < .001), and 92% reported being satisfied or at least neutral to the prescribed opioid analgesic efficacy (P < .001). Overall, the study refill request rate was 13%. Conclusions: Although the proposed guidelines tended to exceed patient need, the study confirmed strong patient satisfaction and an overall refill request rate of only 13%. We conclude that following anatomical and procedure-specific opioid-prescribing guidelines is an effective method of prescribing opioids postoperatively after upper extremity.","PeriodicalId":76630,"journal":{"name":"The Hand","volume":"16 1","pages":"491 - 497"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1558944719867122","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42575957","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}

We aim to describe the epidemiology, trends, and costs of pediatric patients who present to US EDs with upper extremity injuries. Methods: Using the National Emergency Department Sample, we identified all ED encounters by patients aged <18 years associated with a primary diagnosis involving the upper extremity from 2008 to 2012. Patients were divided into 4 groups by age (≤5 years, 6-9 years, 10-13 years, and 14-17 years) and a trauma subgroup. Primary outcomes were prevalence, etiology, and associated charges. Results: In total, 11.7 million ED encounters were identified, and 89.8% had a primary diagnosis involving the upper extremity. Fracture was the most common injury type (28.2%). Dislocations were common in the youngest group (17.7%) but rare in the other 3 (range = 0.8%-1.6%). There were 73.2% of trauma-related visits, most commonly due to falls (29.9%); 96.9% of trauma patients were discharged home from the ED. There were bimodal peaks of incidence in the spring and fall and a nadir in the winter. Emergency department charges of $21.2 billion were generated during the 4 years studied. While volume of visits decreased during the study, associated charges rose by 1.21%. Conclusions: Pediatric upper extremity injuries place burden on the economy of the US health care system.

Methods: Eleven cadaveric thumbs underwent kinematic testing under 4 conditions: intact, partial tear (50%) of the proper UCL, full tear of the proper UCL, and complete tear of both the proper and accessory UCL. Kinematic testing parameters included varus/valgus stress, pronation/supination, and volar/dorsal translation at −10 degree, 0 degree, 15 degree, and 30 degree of metacarpophalangeal flexion. Results: Partial tear of the proper UCL did not result in significant increases in laxity in any direction compared with intact (P ≥ .132). Full tear of the proper UCL resulted in a significant increase in valgus angulation (18.8° ± 1.7° vs 11.5° ± 1.5°; P = .024) and pronation (15.4° ± 2.5° vs 12.6° ± 2.3°; P = .034) at 30 degree of flexion relative to intact. Complete tear of both the proper and accessory collateral ligaments resulted in increased valgus angulation at all degrees of flexion (P < .001). Complete tear also resulted in a significant volar translation at 0 degree, 15 degree, and 30 degree of flexion (P ≤ .016). Conclusion: Partial tear of the proper UCL does not significantly affect the stability of the joint, but full tear of the proper UCL increases valgus instability at 30 degree of flexion. Complete tear of the UCL is necessary for increased varus/valgus instability at all degrees of flexion and results in significant increases in pronation/supination and volar translation.","PeriodicalId":76630,"journal":{"name":"The Hand","volume":"16 1","pages":"467 - 473"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1558944719868518","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45241466","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}

The purpose of this study was to determine whether physician-, patient-, and injury-related factors increase the risk of false-negative nerve examinations. Methods: A statewide health information exchange was used to identify complete upper extremity nerve lacerations subsequently confirmed by surgical exploration at 1 pediatric and 2 adult level I trauma centers in a single city from January 2013 to January 2017. Charts were manually reviewed to build a database that included Glasgow Coma Scale score, urine drug screen results, blood alcohol level, presence of concomitant trauma, type of injury, level of injury, laterality, initial provider examination, and initial specialist examination. Bivariate and multivariable analyses were performed to evaluate risk factors for a false-negative examination. Results: Two hundred eighty-eight patients met inclusion criteria. The overall false-negative examination rate was 32.5% at initial encounter, which was higher among emergency medicine physicians compared with extremity subspecialists (P < .001) and among trauma surgeons compared with surgical subspecialists (P = .002). The false-negative rate decreased to 8% at subsequent encounter (P < .001).
