Article Synopsis
  • - Hemorrhage is the main cause of preventable death in trauma situations, leading to military and civilian advancements in medical practices, particularly through the use of tourniquets to manage extremity bleeding and save lives.
  • - While tourniquets have significantly decreased deaths from bleeding in military settings, noncompressible hemorrhage still poses a major risk, especially before patients receive definitive medical care.
  • - The study explores using a small, disposable pressure monitor during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) to enhance blood pressure monitoring, facilitate better resuscitation practices, and reduce the need for blood products in extreme environments.

Objective: To retrospectively evaluate clinical outcomes, including function and pain, of patients after our all arthroscopic "whole layer" rotator cuff repair technique with simultaneous biceps tenodesis procedure; factors influencing results were also evaluated. Given the frequent association of rotator cuff tear with long head of biceps lesion and the need for effective combined treatment strategies, this study aims to evaluate the efficacy of our technique and compare it with established methods. We hypothesized that our technique would significantly improve function and reduce pain in patients with rotator cuff tears and biceps pathology.

What Is the Trajectory of Recovery in the Early Postoperative Period after the Big 3 Shoulder Surgeries? Comparative Analysis Using 3 Previous Prospective Studies.

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to evaluate the early recovery differences in patients who underwent three types of shoulder surgeries: rotator cuff repair (RCR), anatomical total shoulder replacement (ATSR), and reverse total shoulder replacement (RTSR).
  • A total of 143 patients participated, and their pain levels, daily activities, and shoulder function were measured at 3 and 6 months post-surgery.
  • Results showed that RCR patients had significantly slower recovery rates, achieving around 43.7% improvement in pain at 3 months compared to over 89% in ATSR and over 78% in RTSR; by 6 months, RCR patients improved to approximately 70%, while ATSR and RTSR showed nearly complete recovery

Metallic Lateralized-Offset Glenoid Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty.

JBJS Essent Surg Tech

July 2024

Department of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, Schulthess Clinic, Zurich, Switzerland.

Background: Metallic lateralized-offset glenoid reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) for cuff tear arthropathy combines the use of a metallic augmented baseplate with a metaphyseally oriented short stem design that can be applied at a 135° or 145° neck-shaft angle, leading to additional lateralization on the humeral side. Lateralization of the center of rotation decreases the risk of inferior scapular notching and improves external rotation, deltoid wrapping, residual rotator cuff tensioning, and prosthetic stability. Metallic increased-offset RSA (MIO-RSA) achieves lateralization and corrects inclination and retroversion while avoiding graft resorption and other complications of bony increased-offset RSA (BIO-RSA).

The application of artificial intelligence technology in the medical field has become increasingly prevalent, yet there remains significant room for exploration in its deep implementation. Within the field of orthopedics, which integrates closely with AI due to its extensive data requirements, rotator cuff injuries are a commonly encountered condition in joint motion. One of the most severe complications following rotator cuff repair surgery is the recurrence of tears, which has a significant impact on both patients and healthcare professionals.
