Study Notes
Principles in the Management of Fracture
- Recognition involves history taking skills to assess the type of fracture and its manifestations
- Reduction/Retention has two categories: Close Reduction (manual manipulation of the bone back to its proper alignment) and Open Reduction (surgical intervention in aligning the bone back to its normal form)
- Retention/Immobilization maintains alignment of the fractured bone using immobilization gadgets such as Cast, Traction, External Fixators, and Orthopedic Braces
- Rehabilitation helps the patient achieve the optimum level of functioning after having the Retention Phase
Common Orthopedic Hardware and Internal Fixators & Its Uses
- Beckman: Self-retaining retractors commonly used for spinal surgery
- Hohmann Retractor: used for minimally invasive hip and knee surgery
- Weitlaner: Self-retaining retractors used for shallow incisions such as radius ulna
- Cobb’s Elevator: used for lifting and dissecting periosteum and other bone lining
- Lowman: used for holding bone fragments and plates during manipulation and fixation
- Reduction Clamp: used for holding bone during open reduction
- Tenaculum: used for holding complicated bone fragments such as patella in tension bond wiring
- Verbrugge: used for holding bone and manipulation during multiple orthopedic surgeries
- Rongeur: used for gouging, cutting, and harvesting bone chips
- Pituitary: used for cutting and removing vertebral body and discs in minimally invasive spine surgery
- Kerrison: used for removal of ligaments and bone tissues adjacent to nerves in spinal surgery
- Blair Knife: used in harvesting skin grafts
- Bone Drill: used for boring hole through the bone using drill bits, screws, and pins
- Oscillating Bone Saw: battery-operated for cutting small and large bones during amputation
- Gigli Saw: used for cutting bones during amputation
- Pin Cutter: used for cutting pins and wires in surgical procedure
- Curette: used for cleaning and scraping bones, intramedullary cavity, and soft tissues in debridement
- Osteotome: used for obtaining bone chips, for scraping dead or necrotic bones
- Mallet: used for beating or giving pressure on an osteotome
- Reamer: used for enlarging an existing hole in the bone to a desired size for the implant to fit its desired location
