Lamina Spreader Technique Improves Debridement Of Loose Bone And Cement In Total Knee Arthroplasty, Sinan E. Ozgur, Ali Oliashirazi, Grant S. Buchanan, Franklin D. Shuler
Lamina Spreader Technique Improves Debridement Of Loose Bone And Cement In Total Knee Arthroplasty, Sinan E. Ozgur, Ali Oliashirazi, Grant S. Buchanan, Franklin D. Shuler
Franklin D. Shuler
Abstract Loose bone and cement can promote polyethylene wear that may lead to failure in total knee arthroplasty. The authors propose a technique to enhance the debridement of loose bodies by distracting the cemented components with a lamina spreader following standard debridement with pulsatile lavage. Cement and bone/soft tissue debris was recovered from 51 consecutive primary total knee arthroplasty patients. This technique facilitated the removal of hidden debris in 80% of patients (41/51). On average, 2.6 fragments measuring 158 mm3 were removed per patient. The authors advocate that distraction with a lamina spreader be used to reduce potential sources of …

Loose bone and cement can promote polyethylene wear that may lead to failure in total knee arthroplasty. The authors propose a technique to enhance the debridement of loose bodies by distracting the cemented components with a lamina spreader following standard debridement with pulsatile lavage. Cement and bone/soft tissue debris was recovered from 51 consecutive primary total knee arthroplasty patients. This technique facilitated the removal of hidden debris in 80% of patients (41/51).

Mitigating Distortion Of Light-Polymerized Composite Trial Bases, Jon Patrick Irelan
Mitigating Distortion Of Light-Polymerized Composite Trial Bases, Jon Patrick Irelan
Master's Theses (2009 -)
Triad Visible Light Cure (VLC) Denture Base Material, a light-polymerizing resin material, is commonly used by clinicians to make trial bases during the fabrication of dentures and in planning the prosthetic and surgical rehabilitation of edentulous patients. A well-known drawback to this material, however, is its tendency to distort during the light-polymerization process. This distortion tends to occur most often towards the posterior aspect of the palate, and can negatively impact the bases ability to be retained through suction to the edentulous arch. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether an experimental polymerization protocol can mitigate distortion during …

Exercise Science Faculty Publications
The pull from the knee is a weightlifting movement derivative that can be used in the teaching progression of the clean and snatch exercises. This exercise emphasizes positional strength during the transition phase and the triple extension of the hip, knee, and ankle joints that is characteristic of weightlifting movements.
Splinting Method For Preventing Thermal Injuries In Patients With Malleolar Fractures Of The Ankle After Operative Treatment Performed Under Regional Anesthesia, Alex Telis, Katherine J. Gavin, Heather M. Menzer, E Brooke Baker, Richard A. Miller
Splinting Method For Preventing Thermal Injuries In Patients With Malleolar Fractures Of The Ankle After Operative Treatment Performed Under Regional Anesthesia, Alex Telis, Katherine J. Gavin, Heather M. Menzer, E Brooke Baker, Richard A. Miller
UNM Orthopaedic Research Journal
After performing open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for treating malleolar fractures of the ankle, surgeons typically use plaster splints during postoperative recovery of patients. Use of regional anesthesia during ORIF has been noted as a risk factor for burns in patients using plaster splints, possibly owing to inability to feel pain after undergoing regional block. We describe a successful postoperative splinting technique used for preventing thermal injuries in this patient population. We reviewed medical records of patients between 2011 and 2013 at our institution with malleolar ankle fractures who had underwent ORIF under general anesthesia, peripheral nerve block, or …
Spare-Parts Technique For Concurrent Treatment Of Ectrodactyly Of The Feet And Syndactyly Of The Hands In A 2-Year-Old Boy: A Case Report, Brielle K. Payne, Mary E. Logue, Selina R. Silva, Deana M. Mercer

Syndactyly is the most frequently occurring congenital malformation of the limbs. Although common, few studies have reported treating syndactyly using Z-plasty with and without full-thickness grafting. We present a 2-year-old boy who presented to our clinic with ectrodactyly of the feet and simple complete syndactyly of two fingers on each hand. After ectrodactyly reconstruction, we used the excess foot skin to cover finger defects. The patient recovered well postoperatively, with matching skin and no trouble with hair growth. Use of a spare-parts technique can help avoid complications associated with harvesting grafts from other donor sites. The results reinforce the importance …
