Bioimpedance measurement: a non-invasive diagnosis of limb compartment syndrome.

Introduction: The methods for diagnosing compartment syndrome non-invasively remain under debate. Bioimpedance measurements offer a promising avenue in clinical practice, detecting subtle changes in organ impedance due to volume shifts. This study explores bioimpedance measurement as a novel, painless method for diagnosing compartment syndrome, potentially enabling continuous monitoring.

Immunohistochemical evaluation of tissues following bone implant extraction from upper and lower limb.

Fractured bones can regenerate and restore their biological and mechanical properties to the state prior to the damage. In some cases, however, the treatment of fractures requires the use of supportive implants. For bone healing, three processes are essential: the inflammatory phase, the repair phase and the remodelling phase.

5th Metatarsal Jones Fracture - To Treat Conservatively, or Surgically Using Headless Double-Threaded Herbert Screw?

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Fifth metatarsal fractures, in particular so-called Jones fractures, are relatively common injuries both in the general population and athletes. Although discussions about whether the surgical or conservative solution should be preferred are ongoing for decades, there is no clear consensus. Here, we aimed to prospectively compare the results of osteosynthesis using the Herbert screw with the conservative solution in patients from our department.

Validated Model for Prediction of Adverse Cardiac Outcome in Patients With Fabry Disease.

Background: The cardiac manifestations of Fabry disease are the leading cause of death, but risk stratification remains inadequate. Identifying patients who are at risk of adverse cardiac outcome may facilitate more evidence-based treatment guidance. Contemporary cardiovascular cardiac magnetic resonance biomarkers have become widely adopted, but their prognostic value remains unclear.

Extremity compartment syndrome: A review with a focus on non-invasive methods of diagnosis.

The article deals with an overview of acute extremity compartment syndrome with a focus on the option of non-invasive detection of the syndrome. Acute extremity compartment syndrome (ECS) is an urgent complication that occurs most often in fractures or high-energy injuries. There is still no reliable method for detecting ECS.
