Fractures: Bone Repair01:27

Fractures: Bone Repair

6.2K
Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...

Flail Chest-II

812
Managing flail chest, a condition characterized by a segment of the chest wall moving independently from the rest of the thoracic cage, requires a comprehensive approach. It includes a thorough assessment of the patient's condition, a diagnostic evaluation to determine the extent of the injury, and the implementation of appropriate medical interventions tailored to the individual's needs.

Secondary Healthcare System01:11

Secondary Healthcare System

2.1K
Secondary healthcare is offered by a specialist, generally in hospitals or clinics for patients referred by primary healthcare providers. It occurs when a person has an illness or injury that requires specific medical care. Secondary care is often referred to as acute care. Secondary care can range from uncomplicated care to repair a minor laceration or treat a strep throat infection to more complicated emergent care, such as treating a head injury sustained in an automobile accident. Whatever...

Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.4K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

486
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care. Here are a few more healthcare professionals.
Physical Therapist
A physical therapist (PT) aims to restore function or prevent additional impairment in a patient following an injury or disease. Massage, heat, cold, water, sonar waves, exercises, and electrical stimulation are some treatments used by PTs to treat...

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Fracture liaison services (FLS) improve secondary fracture prevention by initiating osteoporosis diagnosis and treatment. Implementing FLS programs reduces mortality, refracture rates, and healthcare costs, protecting vulnerable patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Gerontology
    • Orthopedics
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • A significant gap exists between evidence-based osteoporosis care guidelines and clinical practice.
    • Many fragility fracture patients are not diagnosed or treated for underlying osteoporosis.
    • This highlights a critical need for improved secondary fracture prevention strategies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review existing fracture liaison service (FLS) models.
    • To evaluate national and international experiences with FLS in secondary fracture prevention.

    Main Methods:

    • Systematic literature search of MEDLINE and SCOPUS databases.
    • Included randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, and review articles (2001-2015).
    • Keywords: Fracture liaison services, Secondary prevention of fracture, Post-fracture healthcare gap, fragility fractures.

    Main Results:

    • The intensity of secondary fracture prevention programs strongly correlates with their efficacy.
    • Type A FLS models are most effective in initiating diagnostic and treatment plans.
    • FLS programs demonstrably lower mortality, refracture rates, and healthcare costs.

    Conclusions:

    • Fracture liaison services (FLS) are essential for addressing the aging population's healthcare challenges.
    • FLS offer a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach to improve post-fracture outcomes and reduce recurrent fractures.
    • These targeted, high-yield programs protect vulnerable patients and are cost-effective.
