Upper Extremity The natural history of rotator cuff tears
Rotator cuff disease is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders treated by orthopaedic surgeons. Despite its prevalence, the natural history of the disease is not completely understood, which is critical to consider when making decisions on surgical and nonsurgical treatment of rotator cuff tears. This article reviews the most recent studies on the natural history of rotator cuff di...
متن کاملAnalgesic requirements for patients undergoing lower extremity orthopedic surgery--the effect of combined spinal and epidural magnesium.
BACKGROUND Polypharmacological approach is the most common practice to treat perioperative pain, as no single agent has yet been identified to specifically inhibit nociception without associated side effects. Opioids such as Fentanyl is commonly added to local anesthetics to produce spinal and epidural anesthesia. However, significant adverse effects, such as pruritus, respiratory depression, h...
متن کاملCuff Algometry for Estimation of Hyperalgesia and Pain Summation.
Objective Cuff algometry is useful to assess pain sensitivity mechanisms, but effects of cuff position and stimulation pattern are not clear. Methods In 20 healthy volunteers, cuff pain detection threshold (PDT) and pain tolerance (PTT) were recorded with cuffs accommodating two individual chambers at four locations (eight positions) along the leg, using ramp inflation (1 kPa/s) until subject...
متن کاملImplant Removal Matrix for the Upper Extremity Orthopedic Surgeon
Orthopedic implant removal is a commonly performed procedure. While implant removal can be associated withimproved symptoms, risks of the surgery are notable. Stripped screws, broken and retained hardware, and morbidityassociated with soft tissue compromise during difficult removal are all common. Familiarity with the instruments iscritical to procedure success. The purpose of...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF INTRAPARTUM EPIDURAL ANALGESIA ON NULLIPAROUS LABOR
Our purpose was to determine the effect of epidural analgesia on nulliparous labor and delivery. Nonnal term nulliparous women in spontaneous labor were divided into two groups in a quazi-experimental study, 100 in each group. The first group received epidural analgesia and the second had no analgesia at all. In the first group, an epidural catheter was placed in 3-4 cm cervical dilatation ...
