conclusions despite the complications of fixation with the dhs device, it remains the most successful for treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. background according to the existing literature, the dynamic hip screw (dhs) is the preferred standard for the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. however, some surgeons use other devices such as the locking compression plate (lcp). objectives...

errors in blood pressure (bp) measurement are common in the clinical practice. inaccurate measurements of bp may lead to misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment of hypertension. the preferred method of bp measurement in the clinical setting is a scultation, using the first and the fi fth korotkoff sounds. however, the use of mercury sphygmomanometer is declining. automated oscillometric device...

results the mean age of patients was 16.7 ± 2.5 years. there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding gender, age, curve before surgery, and percentage of flexibility. the mean curvature was 70 ± 20.7 in the hr and 64.81 ± 19.4 in the cd group before surgery (p = 0.09); and the mean curvature was 40 ± 16.3 and 26.58 ± 15.37 in hr and cd groups respectively af...
