2 Objectives To understand the principles of the initial management of closed and compound fractures To be able to interpret common limb X rays
Slide 3-

3 Fracture Management Diagnosis History Examination Ix -Xrays, CT Re-examination of pt prn if in doubt Recognised specific injury Ask for advice Treatment Reduction Retention Rehabilitation
Slide 4-

Treatment Fractures/Dislocations Reduction- restore bones +/- joints to normal anatomical position Retention- Maintain reduced position- until bone union or healing of soft tissues Perkin’s formula for pop immobilisation Rehabilitation – restore function: Full range of movements -FROM - and strength 4
Slide 5-

5 Life or Limb Threatening Emergencies Major pelvic fracture Exsanguinations Compartment syndrome Ischaemia, myoglobinuria, renal failure Open fracture Osteomyelitis Limb injury with vascular injury Amputation
Slide 6-

The ‘Ten Commandments of Emergency Radiology’ according to Touquet et al (BMJ 1995): Treat the patient, not the radiograph Take history +examination before ordering Xray Request a radiograph only when necessary Never look at radiograph without seeing patient, and never treat patient without seeing radiograph Look at every radiograph, the whole radiograph, - remember the ABCS: alignment/ adequacy, bones, cartilage (joints) and soft tissues. 6
Slide 7-

The ‘Ten Commandments of Emergency Radiology’ according to Touquet et al (BMJ 1995): Re-examine the patient when there is an incongruity between the radiograph and the expected findings Remember the rule of twos — two views, two joints (above and below the injury), two sides (for comparison), two occasions (may need a follow up x-ray) and two radiographs (compare to a normal radiograph) Take radiographs before and after procedures If a radiograph does not look quite right ask and listen: there is probably something wrong. Ensure you are protected by fail safe mechanisms — establish a quality control system 7

Anterior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint Clinically usually obvious X ray is to confirm and rule out accompanying fracture

Humeral head is anterior to the Y of the scapula/acromion/coracoid

Elbow dislocation

Elbow Dislocation Check for coronoid process # radial head # epicondylar # in children ulnar/medial nerve damage brachial artery damage
Slide 33-

Elbow dislocations X rays are normal in ‘pulled elbow’ Elbow dislocation is usually obvious on x ray check carefully for avulsions on post reduction film - especially medial epicondyle
Slide 34-

Pulled Elbow Age: 1-4- Reduce: pronation/ flexion manoeuvre Supination / Flexion
Slide 35-

Elbow epiphyses in children ‘critol’ Capitellum - appears first Radial head Internal Epicondyle (medial) Trochea Olecranon Lat epicondyle It is the order they appear in that is important, not the age at which they appear
