Abstract:
There is a paucity of literature analysing the importance of leadership within trauma and orthopaedics. However, such skills are essential to make an orthopaedic surgeon proficient in their various roles. This literature review on leadership within orthopaedics enables an understanding of current issues. A narrative literature review was conducted using Pubmed, Medline and The National Centre for Biotechnology databases. The search string used to conduct the narrative literature review was (orthopaedic) and (leadership[Title]). The articles were screened by title, abstract and full text. A reference search was subsequently conducted on these papers using the same inclusion and exclusion criteria. The papers then underwent a thematic analysis to understand the issues surrounding leadership in orthopaedics. The critical themes recognised were quality improvement, training, women in leadership, inequality and traits of a leader. Through reviewing the themes in this article, a framework was developed to identify the current issues and potential avenues of advancing orthopaedic leadership. This narrative literature review has demonstrated a paucity of research in orthopaedic leadership. Further work would create a robust evidence base, outline ideal orthopaedic leadership and standardise training to create better orthopaedic leaders.

Abstract:
Based on the analysis of surgical instruments withdrawn from the operating theatre, it was decided to briefly present the history of osteosynthesis in the orthopaedic department in Gdansk, Poland. Boxes with orthopaedic instruments withdrawn from the operating theatre were obtained. The instruments were grouped, numbered, photographed and catalogued. Not all obtained instruments were used in orthopaedics; the boxes contained several instruments typically used in other fields of surgery. Attempts have been made to divide orthopaedic instruments into several groups, depending on their use in bone fixation. Some specific instruments are used only in one method. The most interesting tools are discussed in detail, with attention to their features and role in shaping modern orthopaedics. Some of the obtained equipment could have been made in the Orthopaedic Workshop in the hospital. They are specific exhibits related to the development of orthopaedics in this hospital that required preservation.

Abstract:
This literature review aims to provide an account of the changes to orthopaedics in the era of COVID-19. Herein, the authors explored the use of telemedicine in orthopaedics as well as changes in surgical protocols, screening methods, work priorities and orthopaedic education. There was increased utilisation of telemedicine in orthopaedic training and outpatient cases as a means to provide continuity in education and care. The need to implement social distancing measures, coupled with the reduced availability of staff, has dictated that the practice of orthopaedics shifts to focus on acute care whilst redistributing resources to front-line specialities. This was facilitated by the cancellation of electives and the reduction of outpatient clinics. Thus, it is demonstrated that major changes have been implemented in many aspects of orthopaedic practice in order to address the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
Gavriil Ilizarov (1921-1992) would have celebrated his 100th birthday in 2021. His contributions to the field of orthopaedic surgery are simply extraordinary. While he is most famous for the circular external fixator system that bears his name, his principles of distraction osteogenesis revolutionized the field of limb lengthening and reconstruction. Despite having no formal education in orthopaedics, he developed a method that became so successful that an 800-bed orthopaedic hospital was built for him in Kurgan, Siberia. The Russian Ilizarov Scientific Center for Restorative Traumatology and Orthopaedics became the largest orthopaedic clinic in the world.

Abstract:
Introduction. Owing to limited clinical clerkships and travel restrictions related to COVID-19, recent medical student mentorship in orthopaedic surgery has been negatively impacted. The purpose of this Quality Improvement (QI) project was to determine if medical student awareness of orthopaedics as a possible career field may be improved through a mentoring program designed and delivered by orthopaedic residents. Methods. A five-resident QI team developed four educational sessions aimed at a medical student audience. Forum topics included (1) orthopaedics as a career, (2) fracture conference, (3) splinting workshop, and (4) residency application process. Pre- and post-forum surveys were administered to student participants to assess changes in their perceptions regarding orthopaedic surgery. Data derived from the questionnaires were analyzed with nonparametric statistical tests. Results. Of 18 forum participants, 14 were men and 4 were women. A total of 40 survey pairs were collected, averaging 10 per session. In the all-participant encounter analysis, there were statistically significant improvements in all outcome measures including interest in, exposure to, and knowledge of orthopaedics; exposure to our training program; and ability to interact with our residents. Those undecided regarding their specialty demonstrated larger increases in post-forum responses, suggesting that the learning experience was more impactful for that subgroup. Conclusions. This QI initiative was a successful demonstration of orthopaedic resident mentorship of medical students, wherein perceptions of orthopaedics were favorably influenced by the educational experience. For some students with limited access to orthopaedic clerkships or formal one-on-one mentoring, forums like these may be an acceptable alternative.

Abstract:
Background The Nepal government issued a nationwide lockdown due to COVID-19 from 24 March to 21 July 2020. This halted elective medical services in our hospital. A number of modifications in the orthopaedic practices at our department were made. Objective This article discusses the impact on orthopaedic load at the Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma, Dhulikhel Hospital, Kathmandu University Hospital during the lockdown. Method This is a longitudinal observational study done during the nation-wide lockdown including all the patients who presented to the hospital requiring orthopaedic consultation. For comparison purposes, the patient numbers from the same date in previous year (2019) were retrieved. Result We received no COVID-19 cases requiring orthopaedics consultation. A total of 1828 patients were seen in the Orthopaedic Outpatient Department, 1077 trauma patients in the Emergency Department, 216 patients were admitted and 210 orthopaedics procedures were performed at the operation theatre. There was 82.21% decrease in OPD patients and 56% less surgeries in OT compared to the same duration of last year. Conclusion There was a great reduction in the patient numbers visiting the hospital, which reflected in decreased number of admission and surgery. A greater part of our work during the lockdown was trauma.

SummaryDemineralised bone matrix (DBM) is commonly used in human orthopaedics as an allograft prepared from cortical bone. As such, there is a background of literature on the basic science, experimental animal studies and clinical human use of DBM. Because canine DBM is now increasingly available and used in veterinary orthopaedics, this review aims to update the veterinary orthopaedic specialist with the properties and activities of this bone allograft product.

Abstract:
Aims Computer-based applications are increasingly being used by orthopaedic surgeons in their clinical practice. With the integration of technology in surgery, augmented reality (AR) may become an important tool for surgeons in the future. By superimposing a digital image on a user’s view of the physical world, this technology shows great promise in orthopaedics. The aim of this review is to investigate the current and potential uses of AR in orthopaedics. Materials and Methods A systematic review of the PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase databases up to January 2019 using the keywords ‘orthopaedic’ OR ‘orthopedic AND augmented reality’ was performed by two independent reviewers. Results A total of 41 publications were included after screening. Applications were divided by subspecialty: spine (n = 15), trauma (n = 16), arthroplasty (n = 3), oncology (n = 3), and sports (n = 4). Out of these, 12 were clinical in nature. AR-based technologies have a wide variety of applications, including direct visualization of radiological images by overlaying them on the patient and intraoperative guidance using preoperative plans projected onto real anatomy, enabling hands-free real-time access to operating room resources, and promoting telemedicine and education. Conclusion There is an increasing interest in AR among orthopaedic surgeons. Although studies show similar or better outcomes with AR compared with traditional techniques, many challenges need to be addressed before this technology is ready for widespread use.

Abstract:
This article establishes the biography of a little known physician of the 19th century., whose commitment with orthopaedics and formulation of medical gymnastics was important: the surgeon-orthopaedist Sauveur-Henri-Victor Bouvier. Several constitutive processes of the medical field of the 19th century are analysed: specialization (around orthopaedics), pro - fessionalization and development of various therapeutic and hygienic methods (among them medical gymnastics). Bouvier’s biography is particularly instructive and sheds new light on these different processes, as well as on the institutionalization of orthopaedics from the 1820’s up to the 1870’s, at the intersection between medical and educative fields, between hospital, medical faculty and teaching of gymnastics.

Abstract:
The way surgical trainees acquire technical skills is changing in modern surgical training programmes: simulation is proposed as a key part of those changes. Arthroscopy is a surgical technique that is increasing in both incidence and technical complexity; where simulation is becoming common, but evidence is limited. Real-world performance improvements can be measured following simulation training in other fields, but equivalent measures of intra-operative performance are inadequate. Thus, although surgical simulation is popular and improves simulated performance, there is little objective evidence that it improves intra-operative performance. The original contribution of this thesis is to objectively demonstrate the transfer of simulation training into improved intra-operative technical skills. To achieve this, a systematic literature review investigated the quantitative metrics currently used to measure arthroscopic performance, identifying wireless motion analysis as a potential method to assess performance intra-operatively. Motion analysis is a recognised objective method to measure surgical activity which correlates with surgical experience, so wireless motion analysis was validated against a wired motion analysis method commonly used in simulation but not feasible for intra-operative use. Wireless motion analysis metrics were further validated with a simulated arthroscopy list: this environment allowed deliberate practice of arthroscopic sub-skills with proximate feedback for independent practice. This simulated arthroscopy list with wireless motion analysis was used in two randomised studies: the penultimate study of this thesis investigated the impact of simulated practice on the arthroscopic learning curve and showed that performance improved rapidly with independent practice but was not modified by feedback, while the final study investigated additional simulation practice during early surgical training, and objectively demonstrated that additional simulation training improved intra-operative performance compared to traditional training alone. This thesis is the first to objectively show that simulation affects intra-operative behaviour. It sets the groundwork for further investigations into efficient, cost-effective simulation and the impact of simulation training on patient outcomes.

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 45-46).
Thirteen patients seen at Red Cross Children's and Maitland Cottage hospitals have under gone complex treatment for the significant deformities caused by meningococcal septicaemia. These patients underwent 62 surgical procedures between them. These procedures were directed at the treatment of sequelae of growth arrest alone and excluded amputations, contracture releases, skin grafts and flaps. The extent of the surgical problems caused by this disease brought about the realisation that a thorough review of the literature and follow up of these patients was required. This would hopefully be of use in assessing the outcomes of various surgical treatment options employed and in developing guidelines for the future management of physeal arrest in these patients.

Abstract:
During the period July 1994 to September 1998 surgery was carried out on seventy-six hips in seventy-five patients that sustained posterior fracture-dislocation of their hip joints. During my training I was personally involved in thirteen of these cases and was the primary surgeon in seven cases. Because of my personal interest in these patients Dr Siboto provided me the records of all seventy-five patients for my scrutiny. While he has carried out the surgery on all but the seven cases which I operated on, the literature review, the correlating of the data and all of the interpretation is my own personal work. At surgery prospective records were kept of the degree of comminution of the fracture, the presence of marginal impacting and the presence of fragments in the joint. Fractures were then classified according to Thompson and Epstein (1951). The surgical time was recorded as well as the nature of the associated acetabular floor fracture when it occurred. Anatomical reconstruction was always attempted including elevation of marginal impaction and bone grafting where appropriate. Fragments were only discarded when too small and unattached to permit their inclusion in the reconstruction. All patients had neurological assessment preoperatively and their Sciatic nerves were explored and the state of the nerve recorded at surgery. The process of formulating this dissertation took place over a two-year period from September of 1997 until June of 1999. As a result, the number of patients examined in relationship to a specific subject is not constant but alters according to the group under scrutiny at that particular point in time. An initial review of sixty cases in September 1997 was carried out and then an additional fifteen patients up until September 1998 were included where relevant. The aim of carrying out this study was to gain a better understanding of this injury so that we could formulate a management protocol for our patients in Groote Schuur Hospital. First of all, I reviewed the literature to discover exactly what has been written about this pathology. In the process I hoped to gain a better understanding of the problem and attempt to define a more concise approach to the injury by consolidating the broad array of articles written on this subject. Then by reviewing our findings in our large series of patients I aimed to discover whether we were encountering similar problems to the surgeons who had preceded us and whether we had made any new discoveries that might positively contribute to the future management of these patients.

Abstract:
Aims Spinal deformity surgery carries the risk of neurological injury. Neurophysiological monitoring allows early identification of intraoperative cord injury facilitating early intervention which has a better prognosis. Although multimodal monitoring is the ideal, resource constraints make surgeon directed intra-operative transcranial motor evoked potential (TcMEP) monitoring a useful compromise. Our experience using surgeon directed TcMEP is presented in terms of viability, safety and efficacy. Methods A retrospective review was performed on a single surgeon's prospectively maintained database from 2010 to 2017 where TcMEP monitoring was utilised. The upper limbs were used as the control. A true alert was recorded when there was a 50% or more loss of amplitude of the lower limbs with maintained upper limb signals. Patients with true alerts were identified and their case history analysed. Results Of the 299 cases were reviewed, 279 (93.3%) had acceptable traces throughout and awoke with normal clinical neurological function. No case with normal traces had a post-operative clinical neurological deficit. True alerts occurred in 20 (6.7%) cases. The alert group diagnoses included adolescent idiopathic scoliosis 9 (45%) and congenital scoliosis 6 (30%). The incidence of deterioration based on diagnosis AIS was 9/153 (6%), congenital 6/30 (20%) and TB spine 2/16 (12.5%). Deterioration in congenital is much more common (p=0.02) when compared to AIS. 65% of alerts occurred during rod instrumentation and 15% during decompression of the internal apex in vertebral column resection surgery. 4 (20%) alert cases awoke with clinically detectable neurological compromise Conclusion Surgeon directed TcMEP monitoring has a 100% negative predictive value and allows early identification of physiological cord distress and immediate intervention. In resource constrained environments, surgeon directed TcMEP is a viable and effective method of intra-operative spinal cord monitoring. Clinical relevance • Surgeon directed TcMEP monitoring has a 100% negative predictive value. • In resource constrained environments, surgeon directed TcMEP is viable and effective • Level 3 evidence

Abstract

Introduction

Wedged shoe insoles are used as a treatment for different problems in order to change the ground reaction force. They can secondary cause different loading patterns under the foot compared to normal. No previous study has, to the author’s knowledge, clinically evaluated the plantar foot pressure with different full-length wedges in normal persons.

Purpose

The purpose was to evaluate the plantar pressure with different degrees of full-length wedges in normal persons.

Method

Twenty persons with normal feet have participated in this single blind study. Wedges were produced clinically in four different shapes, 3° valgus, 0° flat, 3° varus och 6° varus. The test persons were told to walk with the wedges in their comfortable pace in a randomized order. The plantar pressure was measured in the medial and lateral heel as well as in the first and fifth metatarsal head.

Results

The results show significant increased mean pressure for varus wedges compared to flat as well as valgus wedges, in the area of the medial heel and first metatarsal joint. Also, valgus wedges show significant increased mean pressure compared to flat condition in area of the medial heel. There is no correlation between wedge height and mean pressure for any of the wedge conditions.

Conclusion

Treatment with wedges leads secondary to increased mean pressure for varus wedges compared to flat as well as valgus wedges, in medial heel and first metatarsal joint. Furthermore, valgus wedges show increased mean pressure compared to flat condition in medial heel. Patients sensitive to high plantar pressures in these areas should be treated with caution.  Further studies are recommended.

Abstract:
The overall aim was to study outcome following surgery of the injured pelvis with focus on assessment from the patient’s perspective. All adult patients operatively treated for pelvic ring injuries or acetabular fractures at the Department of Orthopaedics, Uppsala University, starting 2003 were prospectively included and followed with quality of life (QoL) instruments for 2 years. The most common trauma mechanism was motor vehicle accident (MVA). Study I included 54 patients with pelvic ring injuries during the three-year period 2003-2005. The two instruments, SF-36 and LiSat-11, were used. In 45 responders lower than normative QoL and life satisfaction prevailed at two years after the injury. Study II included 12 patients with pelvic ring injuries or acetabular fractures sustained following a jump from height in an attempt to commit suicide. At four years all patients were still alive and SCID-interviews performed by a psychiatrist revealed low recurrence of self-destructive behaviour and high QoL in the younger patients. Study III included 136 patients with acetabular fractures where 52 had elementary and 84 associated fracture patterns. Fracture reduction was 0-1 mm in 106 patients and 2 mm or more in 30. QoL was significantly higher in patients with anatomically reduced fractures. Physical SF-36 domains improved with time, albeit QoL was lower than norm. Study IV had the aim to construct a condition-specific outcome instrument for patients with acetabular fractures. Closed and open questions were sent to 127 consecutive acetabular fracture patients at 6, 12 and 24 months following surgery. Responses were validated through factor analysis, scree tests, item reduction and principal component analysis which resulted in a multi-item verbal descriptive scale (VDS) with six condition-specific questions related to “Pain”, “Walking”, “Hip motion”, “Leg numbness”, “Sexual life”, “Operation scar” and a global question concerning impact on daily life activities for acetabular fracture assessment.

Abstract:
Vid rehabilitering är det viktigt att veta om och när muskler vid det skadade området återfår sin styrka. Gällande axelskador finns det idag ingen etablerad metod för mätning av muskelstyrka. I de metoder som testats är vissa attribut inte önskvärda och därför vill man på Karolinska universitetssjukhuset, Huddinge ta fram en ny, förbättrad metod. I metoden ska man kunna mäta en patients muskelstyrka och se skillnaden mellan mätningar över en tidsperiod. Av intresse är den maximala muskelstyrkan samt muskelstyrkan vid 45° abduktion och flexion. Projektet går ut på att ta fram en prototyp som kan användas enligt metoden och se om prototypen är lämplig. En testgrupp bestående av både friska och axelskadade personer genomförde tester för prototypens noggrannhet hos vinkelmätning, prototypens användbarhet samt lämplig vinkel för maximal muskelkraft i axeln. Resultatet visade att prototypens noggrannhet var inom det godkända intervallet för metoden. Användbarheten var också godkänd då alla testpersoner kunde använda prototypen inom de begränsningar vi satte. Vi såg ingen övergripande trend där maximal muskelkraft i axeln erhölls vid 45° även om det stämde för vissa individer. För vidare arbete och ökad validitet krävs fler studier med större testgrupper.
During rehabilitation, it is important to know if and when the muscles in the injured area have regained their strength. Regarding shoulder injuries, there is currently no established method of measuring muscle strength. In the methods tested, certain attributes are undesirable. Therefore, Karolinska Universitetssjukhuset, Huddinge is looking into developing a new, improved method. In this method, one should be able to measure a patient's muscle strength and study the difference in measurements over time. The maximum muscle strength and the muscle strength at 45 ° of abduction and flexion is of interest. The project is to produce a prototype that can be used according to the new method and see if the prototype is appropriate. A test group consisting of both healthy and shoulder injured patients performed tests regarding the prototype accuracy of angular measurement, prototype usability and appropriate angle for maximum muscle strength in the shoulder. The result showed that the prototype accuracy was within the approved range of the method. Usability was also approved as all test subjects could use the prototype within the limits we set. We did not see an overall trend in which maximum muscle force in the shoulder were obtained at 45 °. For further work and increased validity, further studies with larger test groups is required

Abstract:
Background Stress and burnout in healthcare is a globally occurring problem that has been given attention in both media and research literature. Stress derives partly from a high workload and emotional exhaustion, but ethical and moral factors can also cause stress of conscience which in worst case can lead to burnout.   Objectives There is a lack of studies regarding prosthetists and orthotists experience of stress. By using the validated survey Stress of Conscience Questionnaire (SCQ) the aim is to find out the level of stress in prosthetists and orthotists in Sweden.   Method A web-based survey with the SCQ instrument was sent to prosthetists and orthotists in Sweden and the answers was compiled using SPSS.   Results 68 people answered the survey. The situations that caused the highest stress of conscience for prosthetists and orthotists was when there was a lack of time to provide the care the patient needed, when there were incompatible demands in ones work and when ones work was so demanding that they did not have the energy to devote to their family as they wanted to.   Conclusion The results are similar to results from studies made on other healthcare professions which implicates that stress of conscience is as likely for prosthetists and orthotists. A better understanding for causes of stress for prosthetists and orthotists could trough further studies contribute to a better healthcare-climate for both caregivers and patients. Keywords: conscience, stress, mental illness, prosthetists, orthotists
Bakgrund Stress och utbrändhet inom sjukvården är ett globalt förekommande problem som fått mycket uppmärksamhet inom både medier och forskningsvärlden. Stressen kommer delvis från en hög arbetsbörda och emotionella påfrestningar, men även etiska och moraliska faktorer kan ge upphov till samvetsstress som i värsta fall kan leda till utbrändhet.   Syfte Det finns en brist på studier om ortopedingenjörers upplevelse av stress. Genom att använda den validerade enkäten Stress of Conscience Questionnaire (SCQ) är syftet att ta reda på nivån av stress hos legitimerade ortopedingenjörer i Sverige.   Metod En webenkät med instrumentet SCQ skickades ut till ortopedingenjörer i Sverige och svaren sammanställdes med SPSS.   Resultat 68 personer svarade på enkäten. De situationer som orsakar högst samvetsstress för ortopedingenjörer var då man inte upplevde tillräcklig tid till att ge god vård, då man utsätts för oförenliga krav i sitt arbete och då ens arbete är så krävande att man inte orkar ägna sig åt sina närmaste.   Slutsatser Dessa resultat speglar resultat från studier gjorda på andra sjukvårdsyrken vilket skulle kunna betyda att samvetsstress är lika sannolikt inom ortopedingenjörsbranschen.
