Background: In the process of fracture reduction, there are some errors between the actual trajectory and the ideal trajectory due to mechanism errors, which would affect the smooth operation of fracture reduction. To this end, based on self-developed parallel mechanism fracture reduction robot (FRR), a novel method to reduce the pose errors of FRR is proposed.

Methods: Firstly, this paper analyzed the pose errors, and built the model of the robot pose errors. Secondly, mechanism errors of FRR were converted into drive bar parameter's errors, and the influence of each drive bar parameter on the robot pose error were analyzed. Thirdly, combining with Cauchy opposition-based learning and differential evolution algorithm (DE), an improved whale optimization algorithm (CRLWOA-DE) is proposed to compensate the end-effector's pose errors, which could improve the speed and accuracy of fracture reduction, respectively.

Results: The iterative accuracy of CRLWOA-DE is improved by 50.74%, and the optimization speed is improved by 22.62% compared with the whale optimization algorithm (WOA). Meanwhile, compared with particle swarm optimization (PSO) and ant colony optimization (ACO), CRLWOA-DE is proved to be more accurate. Furthermore, SimMechanics in the software of MATLAB was used to reconstruct the fracture reduction robot, and it was verified that the actual motion trajectory of the CRLWOA-DE optimized kinematic stage showed a significant reduction in error in both the x-axis and z-axis directions compared to the desired motion trajectory.

Conclusions: This study revealed that the error compensation in FRR reset process had been realized, and the CRLWOA-DE method could be used for reducing the pose error of the fracture reduction robot, which has some significance for the bone fracture and deformity correction.

Background: Arthroscopy can be used to assist the open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) approach in the treatment of acute ankle fractures. Arthroscopy can also help to assess the articular surface but is performed in only 1% of ankle fracture cases.

Purpose: We aimed to investigate (1) whether arthroscopy-assisted ORIF (AORIF) would lead to improved postoperative functional outcomes compared to conventional ORIF and (2) whether differences in postoperative complication rates exist between these 2 techniques.

Responsible for approximately 35% of all trauma-related deaths in the United States, thoracic trauma is one of the leading causes of death among trauma patients. Furthermore, traumatic rib fractures represent the most frequently encountered injury following thoracic trauma with mortality rates ranging from 8% among the elderly to 13% for patients with a flail chest. This manuscript reviews the history of SSRF as well as the contributions of the pioneering surgeons who championed this treatment.

Introduction: Time spent in the operating room (OR) has ramifications that impact patient outcomes and the economics of patients, physicians, surgery centers, and insurance industry. For that reason, there is an incentive to seek approaches that allow shorter times to be spent in the OR. To what extent varying routine techniques impact on operating times has not been extensively studied in metacarpal fixation literature, specifically investigating retrograde threaded intramedullary nail fixations (RTNF) and comparing it to open plating fixations (OPF).
