3 Types of #HipFracture Repair
1. Internal Fixation: Uses metal pins/screws to hold bones together.
2. Partial hip #arthroplasty: Removes femoral head & neck & replaces it w/ metal prosthesis.
3. Total hip arthroplasty: Involves replacing upper femur & socket w/ a prosthesis.

Prospective randomized trial comparing #carpaltunnel release (CTR) using ultrasound guidance to traditional mini-OCTR without ultrasound guidance demonstrated that patients treated with CTR with ultrasound guidance recovered substantially faster. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2710…
The RSA continues to be studied and better understood, however at the same time there has been rapid development of different prostheses that have taken the geometry of the reverse and made substantial changes, impacting the mechanics of these devices in many ways.

Did you know there are 13 million Americans that suffer from #carpaltunnel syndrome?
Even worse, ~2.7 million are indicated for surgery, yet only 580,000 procedures are performed per year. This has to change… #wristpain#handpain
