Abstract:
To compare the predictive value of the Herring lateral pillar and the Catterall classifications of Legg-Calvé-Perthes' disease, 71 hips with radiographic follow-up to maturity were reviewed. The Herring classification was a significantly better predictor of Stulberg outcome than the Catterall classification. Three independent observers classified early fragmentation stage films by both Herring and Catterall classifications. The interobserver reliability of the Herring classification was significantly better than the reliability of the Catterall measure.

Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP) Measurement
Position the patient at a thirty- to forty-five-degree angle or in a semi-fowler's position. Look for the highest point of pulsation in the internal jugular vein and measure the vertical distance to the angle of Loius or sternal angle. A normal JVP is 3-4 cm above the...
