Ankle Joint01:10

Ankle Joint

3.1K
The ankle is formed by the talocrural joint (crural = leg). It consists of the articulations between the talus bone of the foot and the distal ends of the tibia and fibula of the leg. The superior aspect of the talus bone is square-shaped and has three areas of articulation. The top of the talus articulates with the inferior tibia. This is the portion of the ankle joint that carries the body weight between the leg and foot. The sides of the talus are firmly held in position by the articulations...

Microtubule Instability02:17

Microtubule Instability

6.3K
Microtubules are hollow cylindrical filaments having a diameter of approximately 25 nm and a length that varies from 200 nm to 25 μm. GTP-bound tubulin subunits form αβ-heterodimers for microtubule assembly. These core building blocks interact longitudinally, polymerizing into protofilaments. The protofilaments then interact with one another through lateral bonding forces to form stable cylindrical microtubules. These cylindrical filaments are dynamic as they undergo repeated...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.8K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Nursing Evaluation01:15

Nursing Evaluation

4.5K
The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model01:29

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model

343
The Self-Evaluation Maintenance (SEM) model offers a psychological framework to understand how individuals’ self-esteem is influenced by the achievements of others, particularly those with whom they share close personal bonds. The SEM model operates when personal rather than social identity guides individuals. Central to this model is the notion that individuals have an inherent desire to preserve a favorable self-image, which is continuously shaped by interpersonal comparisons and...

Dysrhythmias V: Evaluating Dysrhythmias

386
Dysrhythmias, also known as arrhythmias, are disturbances in the heart's rhythm that range from benign to life-threatening. A thorough evaluation is crucial for appropriate management and involves a comprehensive medical history, physical examination, and various diagnostic tests.Medical HistorySymptoms: Collect detailed information on palpitations, dizziness, syncope, chest pain, and fatigue. Note their onset, frequency, and triggers.Previous Cardiac Issues: Document any history of heart...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Radiology
  • Biomechanics

Background:

  • Ankle stress radiographs are standard for evaluating ankle instability.
  • Current methods often rely on manual stress application, leading to increased physician radiation exposure.
  • Manual stress application can result in inconsistent force application due to examiner variability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a preferred method for ankle stress radiography.
  • To evaluate ankle instability using inversion or eversion stress.
  • To eliminate the need for a physician to be present in the radiographic room during stress application.

Main Methods:

  • A novel method for applying stress during ankle radiography is detailed.
  • The technique allows for consistent stress application without manual manipulation.
  • This method avoids direct physician involvement in the radiation field.

Main Results:

  • The described method provides a reproducible way to apply stress for ankle radiographs.
  • It significantly reduces radiation exposure for physicians.
  • The technique ensures consistent force application, improving diagnostic reliability.

Conclusions:

  • This technical note presents a safer and more consistent approach to ankle stress radiography.
  • The method enhances diagnostic accuracy for ankle instability.
  • It offers a valuable alternative to manual stress application techniques.
