Abstract:
Background and purpose: The role of nursing care among the traction patients is vital and they should be competent, experienced and educated well about the traction devices used and care to minimize the traction associated complications and infections. This study was designed to access the knowledge and practice regarding care and management of the patients with traction in orthopedic trauma by Nurses. Material and method: A cross sectional descriptive study was conducted on 100 eligible nursing staffs from Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital. Non-probability purposive sampling technique and a self administered structured questionnaire were used to collect data. The statistical analysis was done by using the SPSS version 16. The association between the demographic factors was analyzed by using chi square test. Result: The working area and traction training has significant relation to knowledge and other, such as age, education, work experience, worked in orthopedic ward has no significance. There is adequate knowledge as the percentage value is 88 and practice regarding care of the patient on traction is 98%. Conclusion: The knowledge regarding traction care seems sufficient in this study and every orthopedic nursing should be master in traction knowledge, application and nursing care to acquire early patient recovery without significant deformity and complications.

Abstract:
Purpose: An update is provided on the different types of early treatment for class III malocclusions of maxillary origin. There is an increasing tendency to prescribe maxillary orthopedic treatment with skeletal an-chorage, with the purpose of enhancing the skeletal and reducing the dentoalveolar effects - offering a management option for children with important deformations that otherwise would have to wait until adult age to receive surgical treatment. Method: A literature review has been made of maxillary bone orthopedic traction appliances in growing children with class III malocclusions. A Medline (PubMed) search was made using the following MeSH terms: Cephalometric, Child, Malocclusion class III / therapy, Extraoral traction appliances, Palatal expansion, Bone plates, Skeletal anchorage, Orthodontic anchorage. Results: Many articles show that the greatest maxillary advances are obtained at very early ages, though with a greater tendency towards relapse. However, skeletal anchorage has been seen to afford a lesser relapse rate and greater dentofacial orthopedic efficiency due to its low dentoalveolar impact. In any case, further randomized clinical studies are needed to firmly establish the quantifiable differences in terms of maxillary advance, optimum traction age, optimum traction appliance and potential side effects. At present, the incorporation of surgically inserted bone anchorage appliances (miniplates and miniscrews) offers a purely orthopedic approach to treatment, with minimization of the undesirable side effects of traditional dentofacial orthopedic compensation based on dentoalveolar anchorage. Nevertheless, further studies are needed to consolidate the supporting scientific evidence in this field.

Abstract:
AbstractOrthopedic injuries are predominant among combat casualties, and carry the potential for significant morbidity. An expert consensus process (Prehospital care of military orthopedic trauma: A consensus meeting, Israel Defense Forces Medical Corps, May 2003) was used to create guidelines for the treatment of these injuries by military prehospital providers. The consensus treatment guidelines developed by experienced orthopedic trauma personnel from leading trauma centers in Israel are presented in this paper.For victims with open fractures, the first priority is hemorrhage control. Splinting, irrigation, and wound care should be performed while waiting for transport, or, in any scenario, in the case of an isolated limb injury. The use of traction splints was advocated for both the rapid transport scenario (up to one hour from the time of injury to arrival at the hospital) and the delayed transport scenario. In the urban setting, traction splints may not be necessary. Any victim experiencing pelvic pain following a high-energy mechanism of injury should be presumed to have an unstable pelvic fracture, and a sheet should be tied around the pelvis. The panel agreed that field-reduction of dislocations should be avoided by the medical officer unless it is anticipated that the patient will need to go through a long evacuation chain and the medical officer is familiar with specific reduction techniques.

Abstract This is a prospective study to evaluate the efficacy of the Perkins traction in the treatment of adult femoral shaft fractures from October 1, 2007, to the present at the Black Lion Hospital in Addis Ababa University Hospital in Ethiopia. All femur fractures admitted to the hospital were reviewed and evaluated for treatment. Black Lion Hospital (Tikur Anbessa) is the university hospital in Addis Ababa and the highest tertiary teaching hospital in a country of 85 million inhabitants. A 67-bed orthopedic department offers the main ground for teaching to the undergraduate medical students. The hospital is also the pivotal center for the formation of the orthopedic residents. Patients from different parts of the country are referred to this institution for orthopedic care. A total of 68 adult (older than 16 years) patients with 69 femoral shaft fractures were considered for treatment during the study period. Consent was obtained and prospective treatment initiated. A standard Perkins traction was applied by an orthopedic team composed of consultants, orthopedic residents, physical therapists, and nurses. A protocol was developed for patients undergoing such traction. The physiotherapists will supervise all individual or group therapy sessions. Progressive knee range of motion to facilitate quadriceps and hamstring muscle strengthening exercises were implemented four times a day and recorded. Demographic information, fracture patterns, duration of traction, thigh circumference leg length discrepancy, and pin sites were routinely monitored and charted. Data were computerized and analyzed weekly, and appropriate adjustments were made accordingly. Clinical evidence of a competent callus and confirmation by radiographic studies will influence the cessation of traction to allow gait training with toe-touch crutch ambulation. Progress will be monitored during the following outpatient visits in the fracture clinic. A total of 68 consecutive patients with 69 femoral shaft fractures were treated with the Perkins traction. There were 60 men (88.2%) and only 8 women (11.8%), for a ratio of 8 men to 1 woman. The age of the cohort patient varied between 18 and 28 years. The mechanisms of injury for most of the fractures were motor vehicle accidents, resulting in an isolated femoral shaft fracture in 49.2% of the patients. Half of the fractures were by means of closed injury (n = 44; 64.7%). One patient with a bilateral femoral shaft fracture was also added to the study. The right side was more often involved, with 41 fractures (60%), than the left, with 28 fractures (40%). Most of the fractures involved the proximal third of the femur (n = 34; 50%), but the most common fracture pattern was transverse (n = 29; 42.6%), followed by a comminuted pattern (n = 18; 26.5%). Three segmental fractures were also encountered. The mean hospital stay was 45 days (33 patients; 48.5%), with the length of time in traction varying from 30 to 40 days. Only 2 patients remained in traction for a period of 60 days. At the end of the traction period, 8 patients (11.8%) showed a decrease in the quadriceps mass, and 7 patients (10.3%) showed stiffness of the knee with a range of motion limited to 0° to 90°. Most patients were discharged after about 8 months of treatment. One patient suffered a nonunion, and one was malunited. Superficial pin care infections were noted in 8 patients (11.8%) and treated appropriately. The conservative treatment of 69 femoral shaft fractures using the Perkins traction at Black Lion University Hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, has been proven to be a safe and effective method. It should be encouraged in countries like ours where it is a luxury to have a C-Arm in the operating room and where the hardware often is not available to perform a stable stabilization of the long bone fractures.

Abstract:
Introduction. Pelvic ring injuries usually result from high?energy trauma, and cranial and abdominal multiple injuries are frequently present. Malgaigne fracture is referred to pelvic ring disruption at two sites, and is often treated surgically for its instability. We present a case of nonoperative treatment of Malgaigne pelvic fracture. Case Outline. A 17?year?old girl sustained a Malgaigne fracture falling off a horse. After ruling out urgent multiple trauma in local hospital, she was then transferred to Pediatric Orthopedic and Trauma Service at the Institute of Orthopedic Surgery ?Banjica? Belgrade, with provisional cutaneous traction of 2 kg applied to her right leg. After the status evaluation, the supracondylar femoral traction was applied for three months, combined with pelvic cradle for first 73 days. Weight of traction was gradually adjusted according to x?ray check?up, ranging from 1?16 kg (1/4 of body weight). Antibiotic prophylaxis was administered for 10 days, and thromboprophylaxis for two months. After the removal of traction, physical therapy was applied and the patient achieved full weight bearing four months after the injury. Treatment outcome was a symmetric and stable pelvic ring, equal leg length, full range of motion in both hip joints and normal walking. Conclusion. Traction therapy, combined with gravitational suspension in pelvic cradle, resulted in excellent clinical result. Although significantly longer and more loaded than usual, normal weight bearing and walking were promptly achieved using intensive physical therapy.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Manual traction is a commonly used technique in manual therapy. However, depicting changes in joint space distance via real time imaging during traction is seldomly applied. The aims of the study were to identify ACJ joint space distance changes during manual traction and creation of a classification of the techniques upon the largest change in the resultant parameter (l) representing joint space distance. Material and methods: Thirteen healthy volunteers were examined unilaterally. Acromioclavicular joint space distance changes were measured with dynamic ultrasound imaging during followingmanual traction techniques: International Academy of Orthopedic Medicine technique (IAOM AC), Karel Lewit’s Prague School of Manual Medicine & Rehabilitation technique (LAC) and author’s own proposition (B AC). The differences in joint space distance between resting position (RP) and the traction technique position, created three parameters of displacement - horizontal (x), vertical (y) and (l) - the resultant component. Results: Parameters were not coherent with normal distribution. Statistical differences showed significance in the (x) parameter for IAOM AC compared with L AC (p<0,0183) and B AC (p<0,02). All techniques presented a significant increase of the resultant distance (l), compared with RP as the reference value - IAOM AC p<0,0036, L AC and B AC p<0,0000. In few cases L AC decreased the distance in the (x) parameter, but not significantly. Conclusions: 1.Significant changes of (x) parameter did not correspond with the significance of the resultant parameter (l), which prevented authors from creating a classification of the techniques. 2.All traction techniques used in the study increased the joint space distance compared to RP, which confirms traction’s theoretical assumptions. 3.For clinical purpose the change of (x) parameter may prove crucial for therapy’s effectiveness, despite lack of change in the joint space distance in the resultant parameter (l) by itself.

Abstract:
The care of multiply injured patients with orthopedic injuries has evolved from prolonged periods in traction to early total care (ETC). ETC is advantageous in ease of nursing care and aiding patient recovery. However, concerns have been raised that this ‘second hit’ of surgery places these severely injured patients at risk of excessive inflammatory responses that can lead to systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). Damage control was initially used in abdominal trauma but has been adapted for use in orthopedics. The mainstay of treatment involves external fixation of long bone and pelvic fractures which acts to defer definitive fixation until physiologic stability is restored. The indications for implementing each approach are not clear and this article provides a narrative review of the topic.

Abstract:
Objetivo: comparar fixação transversa de enxertos tendinosos solidarizados versus não-solidarizados e entre duas posições rotacionais diferindo 90 graus entre si em túnel ósseo. Métodos: trinta e seis sistemas de fixação de tendões quádruplos bovinos em osso porcino foram confeccionados e divididos em quatro grupos de acordo com duas posições rotacionais de enxerto (diferindo 90◦) e presença ou não de solidarização. Em ensaio de tração, os dados de força e deslocamento nos pontos de falha (força máxima Fmax e primeiro pico válido Fp) e ponto de medida 445N foram medidos, comparados e utilizados para o cálculo de rigidez. Foram contabilizados os picos intermediários válidos. Resultados: os grupos “à cavaleiro” apresentaram maior força de ponto de falha com todos os parâmetros (p < 0,05) e maior rigidez com o uso de ponto de força máxima (P < 0,05). Nos grupos transfixantes, o grupo com solidarização apresentou maior Fmax e Fp (Fmax de 1555,4N ± 408 versus 1135,2 ± 448,7, Fp de 1539,9N ± 400,8 versus 950,5N ± 599,8). A quantidade de picos intermediários foi maior no grupo transfixante sem solidarização. Conclusão: A posição “à cavaleiro” apresentou maior Fmax, Fp e rigidez. Com a solidarização, o grupo transfixante obteve melhor resposta à tração.
Purpose: To make comparison between sewed and not sewed and between two different rotational positions of transverse fixed tendon graft inside bone tunnel. Methods: Thirty-six quadrupled bovine tendon grafts fixation systems in porcine femurs models were divided into four groups concerning rotational positioning inside de bone tunnel and the presence of sewing through the tendon sections. By measuring displacement and load at the resistance limit, first validated peak and 445N point, the groups were compared and the rigidity was achieved. The intermediate validated peaks were observed. Results: looped positioned groups showed higher fail points levels than the transfixed groups using all parameters (p<0,05), as well as greater rigidity when using the maximum load as fail parameter. In transfixed tendons groups, the sewed tendon group showed greater Fmax and Fp (Fmax 1555,4N ± 408 versus 1135,2N ± 448,7 and Fp 1539,9N ± 400,8 versus 950,5N ± 599,8), p<0,05. Intermediate peaks incidence was greater in the not-sewed/not-looped (transfixed) group Conclusion: looped positioned group gave better results: greater Fmax, Fp, and rigidity. The transfixed tendons group had better response to tensile load when sewed.

The aim of this study was establish if Leander versus Static traction was useful for the treatment of facet syndrome, a common type of mechanical lower back pain seen by chiropractors. Two groups of fifteen participants were chosen on the basis of the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The first objective was to determine if Static linear traction was effective for the treatment of lumbar facet syndrome in terms of subjective and objective findings. The second objective was to determine if Leander traction was effective for the treatment of lumbar facet syndrome in terms of subjective and objective clinical findings. Lastly the third objective was to compare the subjective and objective clinical findings for both groups. Design: A randomised, two group parallel controlled clinical trial was carried out between the two sample groups. Participants had to have had chronic lower back pain (> 3months). Thirty symptomatic volunteer participants between 25 and 55 were randomly divided into two equal groups – group A (Leander traction) received 5 treatments over a 2 week period. Similarly, group B (Static linear traction) also received 5 treatments over a 2 week period. Algometer readings, Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NRS101), Pain Severity Scale (PSS) and Oswestery Disabilty Index (ODI) were used as v assessment tools. Subjective and objective clinical findings were taken on the first and second visits (i.e. 48 hours) prior to treatment and immediately after treatment. Another set of subjective and objective readings were taken one week after the fifth treatment in order to gauge the long term effects of both treatments. No treatment was given on the sixth visit. Pressure tolerance measurements using an algometer were taken at the end ranges of motion in Kemp’s test and spinal extension. Outcome measures: SPSS version 15 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, Illinois, USA) was used for statistical analysis of data. A p value of <0.05 was considered as statistically significant. The two groups were compared at baseline in terms of demographics variables and location using Pearson’s chi square tests and ttests as appropriate. Intra-group comparisons were made between all time points. A significant time effect indicated successful treatment intervention. Inter-group comparisons were achieved using repeated measures ANOVA tests for each outcome measured separately. A significant time group interaction effect indicated a significant treatment effect. Profile plots were used to assess the trend and direction of the treatment effect. Results: The results of the study showed that Leander traction and Static linear traction were both effective for treating chronic lumbar facet syndrome and no statistically significant difference was found between subjective and objective clinical findings between the two groups.

Abstract:
M.Tech. (Chiropractic)
Purpose: The purpose of this randomised comparative study was to establish the effects which these modalities had on pain perception and range of motion in patients with acute cervical facet syndrome. This was done by comparing manual cervical spine traction alone; to cervical spine adjustments alone to manual cervical spine traction applied post cervical spine adjustments. Method: A total of 30 participants were recruited for this study by placing advertisements in and around the University of Johannesburg, Doornfontein Campus. Participants had to meet the requirements of the inclusion criteria and were excluded if they were found to be unfit for this particular study. The 30 participants were asked to draw a number out of a bag which therefor randomly divided them into three groups of 10 participants each. Procedure: Participants in group A received manual cervical traction alone as their treatment. Participants in group B received cervical spine adjustments alone as their treatment. Finally, participants in group C were treated by performing manual cervical spine traction after the cervical spine adjustment. Each participant was treated a total of six times over a two week period. Measurements were taken on the first, fourth and a seventh consultation. Results: Regarding the Subjective readings, there was an improvement with regards to the Numerical Pain Rating Scale values for all three groups, but the combination group of manual cervical spine traction performed post cervical spine adjustment, showed the greatest improvement over the trial period on intra-group analysis. No statistical significant changes were found on inter group analysis. There was an improvement in Neck Pain Disability Index values for all three groups, but the cervical spine adjustment group showed the greatest improvement over the trial period on intra-group analysis. No statistical significant changes were found on inter group analysis. Regarding the Objective readings, there was an improvement in pressure algometer readings for all three groups, but the cervical spine adjustment group showed the greatest improvement over the trial period on intra-group analysis. No statistical significant changes were found on inter group analysis. There was an improvement in Cervical Range of Motion readings for all three groups, but the combination group of manual cervical spine traction performed post cervical spine adjustment showed the greatest improvement for flexion, extension and bilateral rotation on intra-group analysis. However, for bilateral lateral flexion, the cervical spine adjustment group showed the greatest improvement on intra group analysis. No statistical significant changes were found on inter group analysis. Conclusion: There were clinically significant improvements within each of the three groups on intra group analysis but no clinically significant differences were found on inter group analysis. Therefore, none of the groups could be singled out as being the best treatment approach for acute cervical facet syndrome. With regards to the Chiropractic profession the outcome of this study therefore suggests, that the chiropractic adjustment alone is sufficient in treatment of acute cervical facet syndrome as none of the groups proved to be superior.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of McMannis traction and Intermittent traction, both m conjunction with chiropractic manipulation in the treatment of chronic i.e. longer than four weeks, mechanical lower back pain. It was hypothesised by the author that McMannis traction would be the traction treatment of choice, as it enables the joints of the lumbar vertebrae to be moved through their normal anatomical range of motion while being traeticned axially. In addition this type of traction is more specific and allows the therapist to determine the amount of traction that is being applied to the patient because it is being applied manually. Intermittent traction on the other hand is a motorised non-specific traction and affects several joints at one time (Saunders 1979).

Abstract:
Chapter 27 discusses fracture fixation. Although many fractures are managed nonoperatively, others require various forms of surgical intervention. Fracture fixation can be conservative or surgical. The goal is to stabilize the fractured bone, enable fast healing, and return early mobility and function of the injured extremity. Orthopedic hardware permits stabilization of the fractured bone, expediting healing and early mobility. Percutaneous pins and wires can be used to apply traction to a fracture. External and internal fixation are used when more advanced operative intervention is required and encompass external fixator devices, pins/wires, screws, plates, and intramedullary nails/rods. Hardware is unfortunately susceptible to complication, including loosening, migration, fracture, and infection.
