Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how implementing Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) combined with pharmacist checks affects medication errors in an orthopaedic surgery unit during the prescribing, dispensing, and administration phases.
- An observational study monitored medication errors before and after CPOE implementation in a Paris hospital, observing 111 patients before and 86 after, analyzing error frequencies across the three stages of drug management.
- Results showed a dramatic 92% reduction in prescribing errors and a 17.5% decrease in administration errors due to CPOE, while dispensing errors did not significantly change, indicating that CPOE improves drug management safety and quality.
Percutaneous Tenolig(®) repair under intra-operative ultrasonography guidance in acute Achilles tendon rupture.

Background: Acute Achilles tendon rupture can be treated conservatively or surgically. Open surgery restores tendon continuity but carries a risk of skin complications. Tenolig(®) is a device designed for the percutaneous biological treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res
October 2011
Introduction: Over the past few years the use of arthroplasty was broadened to treating complex epiphyseal fractures at the shoulder and elbow joints. Similar trends to treat this type of fractures at the knee are less documented. Based on a multicenter retrospective series study, the aims of this work is to evaluate the short term clinical results of total knee prostheses in the management of comminuted epiphyseal fractures around the knee, to identify the technical issues and fine tune the indications.

Orthop Traumatol Surg Res
February 2011
Introduction: Despite recent improvements in surgical devices, complex proximal humerus fractures internal fixation still encounters frequent mechanical failures.
Hypothesis: The aim of this study was to confirm that the Bilboquet device (a design mimicking the cup-and-ball game) helps solving mechanical difficulties associated with these fractures internal fixation and to present a simplified version of the original surgical procedure.
Patients And Method: This non-randomised prospective study included 22 fractures in 22 patients, mean age: 70 years.
