Aim: This paper describes how an acute teaching trust established the role of Senior Nurses (Modern Matrons) and an audit that was undertaken 12 months after they were appointed to evaluate the role.
Background: The concept of the Modern Matron was introduced in 2000 and all trusts had to implement the role by April 2002.
Methods: The audit comprised: measurement of progress against agreed corporate objectives and questionnaires to all senior nurses and a range of trust staff staff.
Background: This prospective study was performed to determine which clinical and imaging tests were most helpful for diagnosing acromioclavicular joint pain.
Methods: Of 1037 patients with shoulder pain, 113 who mapped pain within an area bounded by the midpart of the clavicle and the deltoid insertion were eligible for inclusion in the study. Forty-two subjects agreed to participate, and four of them were lost to follow-up.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate in vivo the clinical outcomes of rotator cuff repairs with bioabsorbable screws compared with metal suture anchors, and to compare the ex vivo initial load to failure of rotator cuff repairs using 3 different bioabsorbable screws, suture anchors, and transosseous sutures.
Type Of Study: In vivo clinical outcomes investigation, and ex vivo biomechanical study.
Methods: Three cohorts of patients with rotator cuff tears that measured less than 4 cm(2), were sequentially repaired with Mitek Rotator Cuff QuickAnchors (Mitek Surgical Products, Norwood, MA) (n = 9), Arthrex Headed Bio-Corkscrews (n = 9) (Arthrex, Naples, FL), and Mitek Rotator Cuff QuickAnchors (n = 9).
