Surgical management of anterior cruciate ligament injuries in Belgium anno 2013 / Hans Van der Bracht in Acta Orthopaedica Belgica, Vol.81/4 (Décembre 2015)

Public ISBD [article]  inActa Orthopaedica Belgica > Vol.81/4 (Décembre 2015) . - p.738-746 Titre : Surgical management of anterior cruciate ligament injuries in Belgium anno 2013 Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Hans Van der Bracht ; Laurent Goubau ; Bart Stuyts Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.738-746 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Background : Anatomic ACL surgery, including double bundle ACL reconstruction, has been investigated widely. The purpose of this study was to gain insight in the currently used surgical management of anterior cruciate ligament injuries amongst Belgian orthopaedic surgeons. Methods : A survey consisting of epidemiological questions, ACL surgery related questions and questions concerning rehabilitation was submitted to all members of the Belgian Knee Society. Results : Anatomic single bundle ACL repair with transportal femoral tunnel drilling, using an autologous hamstring graft fixed with a cortical suspension system proximal and an interference screw distal is currently the most common technique. The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia with a one-night stay in the hospital. Postoperatively a hinge brace is mostly used. Conclusion : Although much research concerning double bundle ACL surgery is performed, only few surgeons perform this technique. Most surgeons perform an anatomic single bundle repair. This is in accordance with the current knowledge regarding cost effective care. Performing this procedure in day care with the aid of loco-regional anesthesia and avoidance of a hinged brace can help to reduce the cost for the healthcare system without compromising the outcome.

The role of other stakeholders than the surgeon in relation to surgical site infections following total joint replacement / Bart Stuyts in Acta Orthopaedica Belgica, Vol.81/4 (Décembre 2015)

Public ISBD [article]  inActa Orthopaedica Belgica > Vol.81/4 (Décembre 2015) . - p.578-586 Titre : The role of other stakeholders than the surgeon in relation to surgical site infections following total joint replacement Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Bart Stuyts ; Elke Van den Eeden ; Peter Fennema Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.578-586 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In contemporary orthopaedics, surgical site infections (SSIs) can have significant negative consequences for both patients and the healthcare system overall. To date, most efforts at combating the risk of SSIs have focused on the role of the surgeon, yet recent data suggest that a more expansive approach is warranted. The current review offers an overview of the most-relevant factors associated with SSIs in orthopaedic surgery, and the crucial role that the full surgical staff can play in addressing them.
