Objective: The aim: To find the most rational choice of drugs that have anti-emetic effect in patients with polytrauma in acute and early periods.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: We examined 82 patients with polytrauma, 62 men and 20 women. The age of patients ranged from 19 to 50 years. Patients were divided into the main and control group with 36 and 46 people respectively, who did not differ significantly by sex, age, anthropometric data, the nature and severity of injuries, and the time from injury to admission to hospital.

Results: Results: Full antiemetic effect was achieved in 72.4% of patients, where metoclopramide was used. Сomplete antiemetic effect was achieved in 96.3% of patients, where sturgeon was used. Decrease of peristaltic activity does not increase postoperative intestinal paresis, and also prevents irritable bowel syndrome and diarrhea caused by dysbacteriosis on the background of antibiotic therapy. Anxiolytic effect without sedative effect and impairment of motor coordination, decrease of the somatic and psychopathological symptoms intensity in alcohol-toxic withdrawal syndrome contributes to the correct interpretation of the traumatic disease.

Conclusion: Conclusions: Use of drugs with antiemetic effect is an important part of the complex of traumatic disease treatment in patients with polytrauma. The use of osetron is rational in patients with polytrauma with cranio-abdominal injuries.

Pleural Space Management in Thoracic Trauma.

J Orthop Trauma

December 2024

Section of Acute Care Surgery, Department of General Surgery, Stanford University, Stanford, CA.

Thoracic injuries are common, occurring in up to 60% of polytrauma patients and represent 25% of trauma deaths. Thoracic trauma frequently involves injury to the pleural space resulting in hemothorax and pneumothorax-effective management of the pleural space is essential. Reviewed in this article is management of the pleural space in chest wall trauma (including pneumothorax and hemothorax), and chest tube placement, indications for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, management, and complications.

Injury Patterns and Surgical Approaches.

J Orthop Trauma

December 2024

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Missouri - Columbia, Missouri Orthopaedic Institute, Columbia, MO.

Effective management of bony and cartilaginous thoracic injury is a vital part of the care of the polytraumatized patient. Commonly because of high-energy accidents including motor vehicle collisions and falls, these patients routinely require multidisciplinary care and surgical intervention. As our understanding of unstable chest wall injuries and pulmonary sequelae of the injury grows, it is imperative that injury patterns and surgical approaches become familiar to the orthopaedic trauma-trained surgeon.

Background: The failure rate of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in children and adolescents is a significant concern. Of the multitude of clinical factors that contribute to this risk, delayed maturation and graft laxity are potentially related and modifiable elements. The aim was to investigate knee anterior laxity and graft maturation in children and adolescents.

Background: In modern conflicts, extremities are mainly affected, with limb amputations required for approximately 5% of severely injured combatants and 7% of those with serious limb injuries. Amputations are some of the most challenging injuries endured by survivors, significantly affecting the patients and the healthcare system. This study aims to describe the rates, characteristics, and risk factors of limb amputations in patients with serious extremity trauma during the 2023 conflict in Israel.

Developing a Risk Score for Predicting Multiple Revision Surgeries in Patients With Fracture-Related Infections.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg

January 2025

From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL (Yeager, Rutz, Strother, Spitler, and Johnson), and the Heersink School of Medicine, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL (Gross, Benson, and Carter).

Introduction: Postoperative infections are a leading cause of morbidity following fracture repair. The purpose of this study is to develop a risk score predicting fracture-related infection (FRI) that will require one versus multiple revision surgeries related to infection eradication and bone healing.

Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study conducted at a single level I trauma center from 2013 to 2020.
