Critical orthopedic skills and procedures.
Musculoskeletal injury and diseases are common presentations in the Emergency Department. Emergency physicians must be versed in the critical procedural skills necessary to diagnose joint infection, manage fractures and dislocations, and assess for compartment syndrome. Arthrocentesis, splinting, dislocation reduction, and the evaluation of limb compartment syndrome are reviewed.
متن کاملDose from syringe procedures during technetium-99m radiopharmaceutical preparation.
UNLABELLED We examined the dose from 99mTc contained in syringes and shielded vials to assess in detail the dose burdens in a central pharmacy. METHODS Absorbed-dose rates at the end of the plunger of a shielded syringe, when 99mTc is contained either in the syringe or in a shielded vial from which the activity would be drawn, were measured with CaF2 dosimeters. The dose rates also were calcu...
متن کاملEffective patient dose during neuroradiological C-arm CT procedures.
PURPOSE We aimed to determine the effective dose given to patients during neuroradiological C-arm computed tomography (CT) procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Measurements were performed on 48 patients using a dose-area product (DAP) meter. A PC-based Monte Carlo program (PCXMC, STUK, Helsinki, Finland) was used to calculate the effective dose from the DAP values of each patient. Organ doses we...

متن کاملSerotonin reuptake inhibitors and bleeding risks in major orthopedic procedures.
BACKGROUND Risk of abnormal bleeding in surgery patients prescribed serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs) is unclear. Considering the quantity of literature on abnormal gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding with SRIs, relatively little exists on SRI bleeding risks in surgical procedures. We investigated whether SRIs increase the risk of surgical bleeding in patients undergoing knee and hip total joint ...
