Equine Bracing Solutions Orthopedic veterinarian bracing for horses and other animals about us inservice contact us Primary uses for equine bracing are fractures and soft tissue injuries, correcting deformities, wound and pain management, and stabilization in emergencies. Veterinarians caring for equines and other animals can now use bracing technology that has been used for the human population. Braces can be used for the same type of injuries you are now treating with a cast, including fractures, soft tissue injuries, nerve injuries, or arthrodesis. Corrective bracing can be used as an adjunct to surgery or to eliminate the need for surgery. Ready-made braces will stabilize the limb for transport. The Easy Splint is a convenient off-the-shelf tool to stabilize the fetlock. For custom braces, the veterinarian takes a thin fiberglass cast with the leg in the desired position. (See casting procedure .) This negative cast is sent to Equine Bracing Solutions for fabrication of the brace.

A fracture is a partial or complete break in the bone. When a fracture occurs, it is classified as either open or closed: open fracture (Also called compound fracture.) - the bone exits and is visible through the skin, or a deep wound that exposes the bone through the skin. closed fracture (Also called simple fracture.) - the bone is broken, but the skin is intact. Fractures have a variety of names. Below is a listing of the common types that may occur in children: greenstick - incomplete fracture. The broken bone is not completely separated. transverse - the break is in a straight line across the bone. spiral - the break spirals around the bone; common in a twisting injury. oblique - diagonal break across the bone. compression - the bone is crushed, causing the broken bone to be wider or flatter in appearance. comminuted - the break is in three or more pieces.

Introduction This web site has been authored by Mr G J Packer, an Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising in wrist injuries, and is intended as a source of information and communication for other medical consultants, healthcare professionals and for patients. The presentation has been organised into several sections accessed via the links to the left. To see the full presentation on one page, please click here Fractures of the Wrist Fractures of the wrist are very common injuries. Around one quarter of all patients in a fracture clinic will have suffered a fracture of the wrist. The usual cause of a fracture of the wrist is a fall. The person falling tries to break their fall by putting the hand out to save themselves and in doing so the wrist is forced backwards (figure one). Figure one: A fall onto the outstreched hand is the usual cause of fractures of the wrist joint. Click here to view a larger version The break usually occurs about 2.5cm from the wrist joint at the point where the radius (the largest of the two bones of the forearm) starts to narrow from the broad and relatively soft (cancellous) bone forming the joint to the hard (cortical) bone of the shaft of the radius (figure 2). Figure two: How and why wrist fractures occur.

Site Index Site Search Search this site: Stress Fractures By David M. Kahler, M.D. At the start of each new year, many of us who have put on a few extra pounds over the holidays will resolve to begin a new exercise program. This may include using a new piece of exercise equipment or starting a running program. Any sudden increase in activity can expose the skeleton to unaccustomed stresses and may result in a painful condition known as stress fracture. Stress fractures occur through areas of bone that have been weakened by the body's natural remodeling process. In attempt to strengthen bone in response to increased stress, the body first absorbs some of the existing normal bone so that stronger bone can then be deposited. Microscopic fractures can then occur in the weakened bone, resulting in pain and activation of the normal healing process for a broken bone. It is rare for the bone to actually break completely; the diagnosis is usually made when the healing process, rather than a fracture line, is seen on an x-ray. Stress fractures are essentially always the results of a change or an increase in activity. This may be as subtle as adding a few miles or hills to the running route, training in worn out shoes that have lost their cushioning, or adding weight work or plyometrics to a training regimen. Stress fractures usually occur in the legs or feet and symptoms of localized pain and tenderness will usually begin about three weeks after starting a new activity. Women with low bone density (as a result of amenorrhea, eating disorders, hormonal dysfunction or menopause) are at particular risk for suffering a stress fracture.

Reference List: Isolated Tibial Fractures 10163. Hooper, G. J., Keddell, R. G., and Penny, I. D., Conservative management or closed nailing for tibial shaft fractures. A randomised prospective trial. J Bone Joint Surg Br. 73:83-85, 1991. We performed a prospective randomised trial on matched groups of patients with displaced tibial shaft fractures to compare conservative treatment with closed intramedullary nailing. The results showed conclusively that intramedullary nailing gave more rapid union with less malunion and shortening. Nailed patients had less time off work with a more predictable and rapid return to full function. We therefore consider that closed intramedullary nailing is the most efficient treatment for displaced fractures of the tibial shaft Send mail to msdjdm@gwumc.edu with questions or comments about this web site.
