Orthogeriatrics: The Management of Older Patients with Fragility Fractures (Practical Issues in Geriatrics)
by Paolo Falaschi David MarshOpen access publication has been possible through an unconditional educational grant from UCB.This new open access edition supported by the Fragility Fracture Network aims at giving the widest possible dissemination on fragility fracture (especially hip fracture) management and notably in countries where this expertise is sorely needed. It has been extensively revised and updated by the experts of this network to provide a unique and reliable content in one single volume. Throughout the book, attention is given to the difficult question of how to provide best practice in countries where the discipline of geriatric medicine is not well established and resources for secondary prevention are scarce. The revised and updated chapters on the epidemiology of hip fractures, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, surgery, anaesthesia, medical management of frailty, peri-operative complications, rehabilitation and nursing are supplemented by six new chapters. These include an overview of the multidisciplinary approach to fragility fractures and new contributions on pre-hospital care, treatment in the emergency room, falls prevention, nutrition and systems for audit. The reader will have an exhaustive overview and will gain essential, practical knowledge on how best to manage fractures in elderly patients and how to develop clinical systems that do so reliably.
Orthogeriatrics
by Paolo Falaschi David R. MarshThis book focuses on orthogeriatrics, a topic that has received little attention in the literature to date. As active members of the Fragility Fracture Network (FFN), the editors and most of the authors of this book have gathered all essential expertise on hip fracture management in a single volume. The 14 chapters provide a complete overview of how to approach fractures in elderly patients, starting with the epidemiology of hip fractures and subsequently addressing osteoporosis, surgery, anesthesia, medical management of frailty, and peri-operative complications. Attention is also given to rehabilitation and nursing, as well as to the psychological evaluation of the patient and the caregivers, thus emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary approach. Thanks to its clinical and practice-oriented nature, the book will especially be of interest to residents and young geriatricians, as well as orthopaedic surgeons, anesthesiologists and nurses dealing with elderly fracture patients in all parts of the world.

Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie für Hausärzte und Arbeitsmediziner: Untersuchungstechniken, Diagnosen, Therapie, Überweisung
by Joachim GrifkaDieses Buch richtet sich ganz gezielt an „Nicht-Orthopäden und Unfallchirurgen“ und vermittelt grundlegende Kenntnisse des orthopädisch-unfallchirurgischen Fachgebiets. Muskel-Skelett-Erkrankungen haben in der hausärztlichen Praxis und der Arbeitsmedizin große Relevanz; mitunter sind bis zu 40% der Patienten wegen Problemen der Knochen, Gelenke und Wirbelsäule in Behandlung. Zudem rangieren die Erkrankungen der Bewegungsorgane an zweiter Stelle bei Ausfallzeiten auf Grund von Arbeitsunfähigkeit. Für Hausärzt*innen und Arbeitsmediziner*innen ist es deshalb besonders wichtig, dass klinische Untersuchungstechniken mit deren Durchführung und Bewertung geläufig sind. Dieses Buch arbeitet mit dem Konzept der Mehrstufendiagnostik von Muskel-Skelett-Erkrankungen – ein Untersuchungsprogramm, das einfach, sicher und zeitökonomisch in der täglichen Routine durchgeführt werden kann.Die klinischen Untersuchungstests sind im Einzelnen genau beschrieben und mit zahlreichen Instruktionsvideos hinterlegt. Dieses speziell ausgearbeitete Programm ermöglicht eine systematische Untersuchung als Screening mit darauf aufbauenden weiterführenden Tests bei Auffälligkeiten. Ebenso kann selektiv regionenbezogen untersucht werden, z. B. bei spezifischen Fragestellungen nur ein Gelenk. Die Dokumentation kann handschriftlich oder auch elektronisch erfolgen, bis hin zur Generierung eines individuellen Befundberichtes.

Orthopaedic Biomechanics Made Easy
by Sheraz S. Malik Mrcs Msc Shahbaz S. MalikOrthopaedic surgeons require not only an understanding of anatomy and clinical sciences, and competence in surgical skills, but also a strong foundation in biomechanics. The application of biomechanics plays an increasing role in modern orthopaedics; for example, correct decisions about the mode of treatment and choice of implants are just as important as operating precisely to reach a specific anatomical landmark. This book simplifies the core principles in orthopaedic biomechanics, giving readers the solid grounding they need to flourish in the specialty. Each topic is covered in a discrete, double-page spread, featuring concise text accompanied by illustrations or tables to give readers a solid understanding of the concepts discussed. This is a must-read guide for orthopaedic trainees at every level, and will be valuable for biomechanical researchers and other professionals in the field.
