ABSTRACT
Objective To develop a newly designed guide and evaluate its clinic application prospect in treatment of patella fracture. Methods In our mechanical experiment, we carried out the tensile test of the two generation drilling guides by biomechanics machine and then analyzed the difference in their deformation. In the corpse experiment , we transversed fractures at the equator of the patella obtained from 10 fresh cadaver speci-mens. They were divided into 2 groups randomly: a test group and a control group. The second-generation of the aiming guide was used for the test group but not for the control group during the experiment. Then we evaluated its clinic application in the treatment of patella fracture. Results In the mechanical experiment, the displace-ment of the first generation guide was significantly larger than that of the newly one. The accuracy in the place-ment of k-wires by the second generation guide was significantly higher than by the first generation guide (P <0.05). Conclusions The drilling guide is reasonable in design and convenient in use. Moreover, it can improve the accuracy and quality of insertion of tension-band wiring of patellar fractures. The second-generation one is better and thus it is worth clinically spreading.
ABSTRACT
Objective To test the biomechanical properties and evaluate the feasibility of the new developed external fixator system,so as to provide reliable theoretical basis for further clinical research.Methods The tibia of 10 fresh male cadaver were made into fracture model.In order to fix the fracture of tibia,experimental group were treated with the new developed external fixator system and the control group were treated with the Hoffman 2 external fixator which was used in clinic commonly.Then axial compression and horizontal torsion test were made on tibia fracture model.The test results were recorded and statistically analyzed.Results There was no statistical difference on the aspect of the ability to resist axial compression and horizontal torsion between the experimental group and the control group(P >0.05). The new developed external fixator system could meet the criterion in clinical application.Conclusion The new developed external fixation system can meet the requirement of biomechanics on fixing the fracture of bone,and it can greatly simplify and diversify the clinical applica-tion of external fixation device.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore an effective way for medical students and young surgeons learning operative approach .Methods A total of 50 medical students and young surgeons in our hospital were detected for this study .They were randomly divided into the BOOK class (group A) and the 3D computer class (group B) to learn the course of anthropotomy.After learning each section, they were examined to-gether on fresh corpse , and the examined results of the two groups were compared and assessed .Results In the general surgery examina-tions, there was no difference in the examined results with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).But in the orthopedics examina-tions, the difference of intra-group comparison both in group A and group B were of statistical significance (P<0.05), and the results of group B were better than group A with statistically significant difference (P<0.05).Conclusion For the general surgical approach learn-ing, both of the two methods could achieve good effect .For the orthopedics surgical approach learning ,it can receive better results through computer software ,but it still cannot achieve the ideal effect ,which indicates that the teaching through fresh corpse could not be replaced yet .
ABSTRACT
Objective To develop a new designed Kirschner wires guider for patellar fracture,and to evaluate its clinic outcomes.Methods From October 2010 to November 2015,totally 72 patients with patellar fracture were detected for this study.Divided them into 3 groups, named as the second-generation guider group,the first-generation guider group and the control group.And then evaluated the clinic outcomes in treatment of patellar fracture of the 3 groups.Results The surgery time,accuracy of placement needle position of the second-generation guider group were better than the other two groups with significant statistical differences (P <0.01).And the clinic outcomes of the first-generation guider group were better than the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05).Conclusion The second-generation Kirschner wires guider is reasonable in design and convenient for use.Moreover,it can improve the accuracy and quality of surgery,reduce the operation time,and enhance the clinical effects.
