Effectiveness of the surgical torque limiter: a model comparing drill- and hand-based screw insertion into locking plates
BACKGROUND The objective of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of the surgical torque limiter during operative use. The study also investigates the potential differences in torque between hand and drill-based screw insertion into locking plates using a standardised torque limiter. METHODS Torque for both hand and power screw insertion was measured through a load cell, registering 6.66...
متن کاملFactors Affecting Pain from Needle Insertion
Hypodermic needles are in widespread use, but patients are unhappy with the pain, anxiety, and difficulty of using them. To increase patient acceptance, smaller needle diameters and lower insertion forces have been shown to reduce the frequency of painful injections. Guided by these observations, fine needles and microneedles have been developed to minimize pain and have found the greatest util...
متن کاملUse of Locking Plates in Fracture Management
The history of fracture management can be traced back to the prehistoric times. It was not until the late nineteenth and early twentieth century that operative treatments of fractures were contemplated. However operative treatment of fractures at that time was associated with devastating results secondary to infection with high morbidity and mortality. As a result, the mainstay of treatment of ...
متن کاملUse of locking compression plates for deformity correction of the forearm bones in children.
THE AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of our study was to assess treatment results of angular deformities in distal radius by a system of the locking compression plates (LCP) at our clinic. METHODS Our source data was collected prospectively from the records of patients where the locking compression plate was used for angulation correction of distal forearm between 2006 and 2007. The patients were div...
متن کاملAre locking plates better than non-locking plates for treating distal tibial fractures?
BACKGROUND Locking and non-locking plates has been used for distal tibia fracture osteosynthesis. Sufficient evidence to favor one implant over the other is lacking in the current literature. Our aim is to compare them in terms of fracture healing, alignment, functional outcome, complications. METHODS Sixty-eight patients operated on using a percutaneous plate were retrospectively reviewed. T...
