    Study Notes

    • Physical Therapy: Essential for restoring joint function, preventing stiffness, and strengthening muscles after joint dislocation.
    • Pain Management: Analgesics and anti-inflammatory medications may be prescribed to manage pain and reduce inflammation.
    • Shoulder Dislocation: Most common joint dislocation, with 90% being anterior and 4-10% being posterior. Anterior dislocations are often caused by static forces, while posterior dislocations are from dynamic forces.
    • Hip Dislocation: Can be anterior or posterior with various reduction techniques. Anterior dislocations may require axial load in a flexed, adducted hip, while posterior dislocations require flexion, abduction, and external rotation.
    • Knee Dislocation: Most common in the anterior position due to hyperextension force to the anterior tibia, with valgus, varus, or rotational forces also possible.
    • Elbow Dislocation: Second most common large joint dislocation, can be simple or complex with potential injury to the radial head, coronoid, or all three forming the terrible triad.
    • Total Hip Replacement: A surgical procedure where a damaged hip joint is replaced with an artificial joint. Developed in the 1940s and 1960s, now includes minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgeries.
    • History of Total Hip Replacement: Originated in ancient Egypt with bronze and gold fingers, modern design developed by Sir John Charnley in the 1940s and 1960s.
    • Types of Hip Replacement: Total hip replacement involves removing the pelvis and head of the thighbone, partial hip replacement (hemiarthroplasty) only replaces the femoral head.
    • Indications for Hip Replacement: Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, injury/fracture, hip osteonecrosis.
    • Procedure of Total Hip Replacement: Incision, joint preparation, implantation, post-operative care.
    • Benefits of Total Hip Replacement: Pain relief, mobility, improved quality of life, longevity of prosthetic hip.
    • Risks and Complications of Total Hip Replacement: Infection, implant loosening, wear damage, blood clots, dislocation, potential need for revision surgery.
