There are different approaches that can be reached with simulation in orthopedics, from simulation management and simulators or virtual reality programs to influence the learning curve and improve technical and non-technical skills, classify the level of those skills, assess and certify professional competencies, among others. Most studies in orthopedics focus on surgical areas, leaving aside the approach of clinical and non-technical skills, as well as undergraduate, so one of the challenges of simulation within the area of orthopedics is to expand the vision towards these areas, since it has been demonstrated that at all levels, the simulation generates significant improvements in the training and performance of health personnel, generating a direct impact on patient safety.","PeriodicalId":91366,"journal":{"name":"MOJ orthopedics & rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46209993","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}

Of late, most of these fractures were treated by lateral devices. As lateral devices were associated with high rates of complications7,9 intramedullary fixation devices have become gradually more prevalent.10–12 The proximal femoral nail (PFN) is an intramedullary system, intended to improve the management of unstable trochanteric fractures. Intramedullary implants are preferred in treatment of unstable trochanteric fractures, especially in the absence of medial buttress.13,14 In 1997 the AO designed an innovative intramedullary implant, the proximal femoral nail (PFN)6 for management of such fractures. Hence, PFN in unstable fracture patterns is progressively becoming standard method of fixation in view of its superior biomechanics and prevention of varus collapse in comparison to extramedullary devices.15 However, the evolution of the procedure may include complications associated with the migration of the interlocking head screws (Z-effect and reverse Z-effect), varus collapse, screw cutout, peri-implant fracture, nonunion, delayed union, shortening and infection. The objective of the paper is to describe the technical hitches, errors and modes of failure of PFN in unstable trochanteric fractures with their literature-based explanations and the recommendations to avoid such complications.","PeriodicalId":91366,"journal":{"name":"MOJ orthopedics & rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44700683","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}

Microorganisms usually considered as nonpathogenic or poorly resistant to common antibiotic therapy could determine the clinical conditions in which the healing can be achieved only with the removal of the prosthetic implant3. There are particular situations at the base of the onset and persistence of so-called “foreign body” infections: the host organism reacts against biomaterials filling them with a thin film made of proteinaceous material. Some of these proteins have receptors specific for Staphylococcus Aureus and Epidermidis, determining contact that at least initially, is reversible. This condition can become irreversible through the production of a gelatinous substance (exopolysaccharides) by certain bacterial species as coagulase-negative staphylococci (St. Epidermidis, Capitis, Haemolyticus), Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonacee, Aciteobacter (Figure 1).
