Abstract

Background: Prosthetic shoulder replacement provides excellent pain relief and functional improvement for patients with shoulder arthritis. Total shoulder arthroplasty for osteoarthritis and reverse shoulder arthroplasty for cuff tear arthropathy remains the gold standard for the geriatric patient population. Poor long-term survivorship, implant failure (glenoid component loosening, and glenoid arthrosis), and functional deterioration requiring early revision surgery are major concerns of similar management in younger patients. Young patients prove as a major challenge to shoulder surgeons due to expected longer life expectancy, desire to pursue sports, and active lifestyle thereby placing excessive demands on their shoulder arthroplasty components. Alternative strategies for arthroplasty in young have been developed; however, there is presently no clear consensus, recommendations to guide clinicians toward management. This manuscript reviews the current concepts of shoulder arthroplasty in young patients.

Abstract

Background: The articular cartilage injuries of the patella are increasingly being reported, being more common in young population and are mostly associated with abnormal biomechanics. The abnormal biomechanics could be an instability, a maltracking or a patellofemoral overload. It is not uncommon to have a mixture of abnormal alignment and abnormal loading, making understanding of the patellofemoral biomechanics more difficult. Abnormal biomechanics put different types of biomechanical forces on the patella leading to the chondral damage. The patellar cartilage lesions usually show different patterns based on these different biomechanics. It is very important to understand the biomechanics of patella before treating the patellar cartilage lesion. A consideration to correct the abnormally aligned or loaded patella is an important step while treating a patellar chondral defect. The purpose of this article is to review the concepts behind occurrence of patellar chondral lesions and the biomechanics behind it, decision making with a brief overview of the treatment strategies.

Abstract

Anterior traumatic glenohumeral joint dislocation is the most common dislocation in the human body. The definitive management of first-time anterior shoulder dislocation remains controversial. The traditional conservative treatment of closed reduction and immobilisation has shown high recurrence rates in the young athletic male population involved in contact sports. This has led to an increased interest and trend amongst shoulder surgeons to offer early operative stabilisation after first dislocation itself. This article reviews current literature about recurrence rates after conservative versus operative treatment of first time shoulder dislocation. It also highlights key issues of defining the high risk group for recurrence after conservative treatment, compares the outcomes of surgery for first versus recurrent shoulder dislocations and also mentions complications of early surgery. Article also discusses an evidenced based treatment algorithm for the treatment of a first time anterior shoulder dislocation.
Keywords: dislocation, rationale, anterior

Abstract

Study design: This was a cross-sectional follow-up study.
Objective: The objective of the study was to study barriers in social integration and community participation of post-traumatic spinal injury patients. Secondary objective is to suggest measures to enhance gainful community integration of these victims to lead better quality of life and productive to the society.
Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating event in one’s life and management of these patients is a challenge not only to treating physicians but also family and society related to patients. Absence of step-down facilities, non-existent insurance policy, lack/unavailability of qualitative assistive devices, and medical and rehabilitation services coupled with almost negligible financial support (disability allowance) from government are serious impediments in continuity of standard care.
Materials and Methods: A total of 141 patients who satisfied the inclusion criteria and survived beyond 1 year were included in our study and were assessed on parameters of economic independence, domestic life, physical independence, psychosocial, and spiritual support. A modified form of CHART score was also implemented to assess parameters.
Results: On comparison with Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique-SF parameters, each parameter showed a strong correlation with each other when Pearson correlation coefficient analysis was done. Age, level of education, employment status, and ASIA Impairment Scale showed a significant (P <0.01) when analyzed with parameters for rehabilitation assessment in our study.
Conclusion: Significant number of SCI patients remains neglected, largely deserted and non-productive to the society. Certain inexpensive and easy to implement recommendations can remove the impediments and offer them a quality of life they deserve.
Key words: Spinal cord injury, social integration, barrier, developing nation.
