Mini abstract US military assets have been integral to the response to global pandemics, natural disasters, civilian casualties, and combat care. Strategies are being implemented to strengthen the military health care system and curtail the erosion of relevant surgical skills and knowledge during periods of low combat intensity. However, additional challenges remain. We describe these strategies and obstacles but also explore potential solutions that may strengthen the readiness of military surgeons and combat trauma teams.

Purpose: To determine the incidence rate (IR) of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and associated musculoskeletal injuries in recreational and/or military-training obstacle course races (OCRs) and to determine whether there are any risk factors or features of OCRs impacting the rate of ACL injury in race participants.
Methods: This systematic review was performed in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. Studies were identified using the following electronic databases: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and Scopus.
All Suture Biceps Tenodesis Has Greater Biomechanical Strength Than Metal Button Fixation.
Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil
December 2024
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Bethesda, Maryland, U.S.A.
Purpose: To evaluate the maximal load to failure, cyclic displacement, stiffness, and modes of failure of onlay subpectoral biceps tenodesis with an intramedullary unicortical metal button (MB) versus an inlay, all-suture Caspari-Weber (CW) technique.
Methods: Sixteen matched paired human cadaveric proximal humeri were randomly allocated for subpectoral BT with either CW or MB using a high-strength suture (N = 16; 8 male, 8 female, mean age = 82.5 years, range 62-99 years).
