What are the true facility cost differences between an open and endoscopic carpal tunnel release (CTR)? Our recent time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) analysis found endoscopic CTR to be 66% more costly to the facility. Endoscopic CTR was independently associated with a $350 increase in total facility costs, predominantly due to longer OR time (37 vs 25 min) and higher supply costs ($383 vs $110). To improve upon the value of endoscopic CTR, efforts to decrease OR time and negotiate endoscopic-specific supply costs are warranted.

Can enhancing the lymphatic system accelerate healing from orthopaedic Injuries?🧐 Instead of focusing solely on #lymphaticmassage or #lymphaticdrainage, this innovative strategy optimises the body’s neurological oscillation. By targeting weak neurological activity areas and supplying essential healing resources, ANF Devices unlock a new realm of recovery potential. This unique method not only accelerates healing from orthopaedic injuries but also harmonises the body’s natural healing processes. 👇🏼 Dive into the world of advanced recovery and witness how ANF Devices are redefining the path to wellness. #anfthearapy #anfdevices #orthopaedicinjuries

Upper limb Fractures & Orthopaedic Rehab initiation: The general management principles are the same for any trauma. A history including mechanism of injury, hand dominance, occupation and recreational hobbies, as well as current functional status are critical. A focused examination should always include neurovascular assessment of the affected limb, as well as assessing for open fractures, compartment syndrome if relevant, and any other bony injuries in the context of the polytrauma patient. Subsequent basic management should include splintage/immobilization and orthogonal radiographs in the first instance. Further imaging and or surgical stabilization will be covered in more detail hereafter. Emerging evidence says that current prescribed exercise regimens may not be effective in reducing impairments and improving activity following an upper limb fracture. Starting exercise early combined with a shorter immobilisation period is more effective than starting exercise after a longer immobilisation period... #orthorehab #physiotherapy #fracturereduction #earlyrehab #evidencebased

BAPO Virtual Events – Teatime Talk – Recording available to members JAS Brace Pathway for TKR & UKR Patients Presented by: Mr Matt Dennies, Specialist Orthopaedic Physiotherapist, Mersey and West Lancashire Hospital This presentation explores the development of a new pathway for the ‘struggling’ patient following a Total or Uni Knee Replacement. It explains how and when these patients are identified as having concerning range of movement deficits, how they are assessed for the suitability of a JAS Brace and how these patients are managed with a JAS Brace. Early findings and data will be discussed, and how data can be used to build a business case, as well as sharing a real patient’s JAS Brace journey.

In this interesting and educational video, Dr. George Corbett explains all about Hip Arthroscopy. As a ball and socket joint, the hip is prone to injury and exhaustion. Total hip replacement has shown to help many patients ease the pain in moving or get back to pain-free movement in day to day activities. For those who are candidates, hip arthroscopy can give patients a pain-free hip, full motion, full strength, and the ability to return to normal activities.
