ABSTRACT
Introduction: Infection is the invasion of the body by thepathogenic micro-organisms with consequent local andsystemic effect. For this, a sufficient number of pathogens mustenter the tissues, overcome the patients' resistance andmultiply. The commonest organisms are staphylococcusaureus and gram-negative intestinal bacilli. Streptococcuspyogenes are not infrequent.Objective: The main purpose of this research is to make acomparative study on causative micro-organisms for postoperative wound infection between first and subsequent casesin routine surgical procedure.Method: Incidence of wound infection between first andsubsequent cases in routine surgical procedure was thesubject matter of this study. In this study 228 cases have beenstudied. Of these cases, 76 were the 1st case, 76 were 2ndcase, and 76 were the 3rd case in 76 routine operation days.The study duration was from September 2015 to August 2016.Result: After numerous information and examinationinvestigation; this study revealed that maximum woundinfection was due to Escherichia Coli.Conclusion: The study concludes that Escherichia coli werethe commonest organism isolated from infected wounds whichis the inhabitant of gastrointestinal and biliary tracts.
ABSTRACT
Objective: In this study our main goal is to evaluatetheoutcome of double tension band wiring and reconstructionplate and screws for the treatment of displaced bicondylar intraarticular fractures of the distal humerus.Methodology: This perspective and randomized study wasconducted at the National Institute of Traumatology andOrthopaedic Rehabilitation (NITOR), Dhaka from July 2003 to2005. Where out of 24 patients 12 were selected for operativetreatment by reconstruction plate and screws (Group –I), and12 were selected for operative treatment by double tensionband wiring (Group-II) as on random basis.Results: During the study, in group-1 and group-2 most of thepatients belongs to 18-30 age group., 75% patients’ injury inleft limb whereas, 35% had injury in left limb in group-2.33.33% patients with reconstruction Plate and Screw, hadexcellent recovery after treatment where as 25% had excellentrecovery when they had double Tension Band Wiring.Conclusion: From our study we can conclude that, operativetreatment of displaced bicondylar intra-articular fractures of thedistal humerus by reconstruction plate and screws gives amore rigid fixation with better functional outcome than bydouble tension band wiring.
